500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System
Chapter 71 I Can’t Complain, Literally"So what happened to Tessera after everything was done?" I asked.
"All eleven Goddesses voted to have her locked in her bedroom at the top of her keep. She still controls the Vampires, but the other Undead don't listen to her. She sent Daywalkers, like Asha, to take our people two hundred years ago, and caught us unaware," Breya explained, and I groaned.
"That is really messed up, but it wasn't the Undead's fault then. You said it yourself; Tessera controlled them," I said, but I knew it wasn't that easy.
"That is true, but it all still happened, and many of us lost friends and lovers. You have no idea what that is like. Maybe you lost people in another time, but you have no memory of what that is like," Breya said, and this was a fair point.
"This is true. I am sure that would have just killed Tessera, and I still might, but, as always, there must be more to the story," I said.
"Possibly, but this is all I know. If you can cure my friend, I would be willing to drop my distaste for them," Breya said, and I nodded.
"Sure, but just remember, your friend might not want to leave. I can cure her with time, but she probably has a partner, or maybe she doesn't. You will have to be prepared for that possibility," I explained, and Breya nodded and then hugged me.
"I will stop acting up around you, I promise. I just want to know if this is her choice or not. If my friend wanted to go back to being a Cursed Blood Angel, then I would be fine with that," Breya said, and I hugged her back.
I really did like Breya, and I was happy that we could have this talk and have it end this way. It might have gone a lot rougher than it needed to be, but there was an understanding between us now.
"Are you ready to go eat? I think that Listenia is going to come knocking at the door soon," I suggested, but Breya was sniffing me. "What are you smelling for?"
"I can smell another woman. Who were you playing with before you have her taste on your face?" Breya asked with a knowing smile.
"I guess I should wash my face after sticking it between a girl's legs," I chuckled. "Trina asked me to join her in the cold room, and we had some fun."
"Interesting. I am curious to know what happened, but I can ask her myself," Breya said and then kissed me. "Mmm, she has an interesting flavor."
"Did you know, if you enjoy the taste of beer, you are likely to enjoy the taste of a vagina?" I asked as we pulled apart and started to walk, heading to the first floor.
"I do enjoy Ale, but how does that work?" Breya asked curiously, taking my hand.
"Just means that they have the same levels of acidity or the PH levels, which stands for Possibility of Hydrogen. The scale is from one to twelve, milk being a plus six, your golden snatch being a four-point five like beer or tomatoes," I explained, and Breya gave me a look.
"Really? Sometimes I wish I couldn't tell if you are telling the truth," Breya sighed, and I laughed as we headed down to the first level.
We headed to the backyard, and everyone was sitting down around the table on the couches, and plates all dished up.
I noticed that Claire was staring at the whole in the ground, so I joined Breya, and we both sat on either side of her.
"Looks like you figured things out?" Eliza asked, and I nodded.
"For the most part. Would you like to come and sit on my lap while you eat?" I asked, and Eliza was over in my lap in a heartbeat.
"Sure, if you don't mind having me here!" Eliza said, leaning back into my chest.
"I don't mind. You eat your food, and I will eat when you are done," I said and then asked, "Where is Lady Katarina?"
"She had to go to Bramma, the Peekaan's city to the Northwest. She will be back tonight, unfortunately. That means I will still have class tomorrow, but I will have two days off after!" Eliza said between bites of her food.
"Oh? What is she going there for?" I asked.
"Same as always. Trying to talk them into letting the Easterners live in peace and to stop bothering them. Katarina goes almost once a week, but I don't think that she is getting anywhere with them," Eliza explained, but I thought that was fishy.
"Who else goes with her?" I asked, and Eliza turned up to look at me.
"Normally, Senna goes with her, but she just sent the others this time so Senna could stay here to help with watching the Undead girls. Senna always complains about it every time that she comes back. The Peekaan are very uptight and tend to stick their noses up at anything they disapprove of," Eliza explained and then turned back to her food.
"Well, as long as she isn't sneaking around and doing something else," I said and turned my head to Claire, who was slowly eating her food. "And how is your day going, Claire?"
"As a slave? I can't complain, literally," Claire said and went back to pushing her vegetables around her plate.
"Well, that is a poor attitude, but I get it. Tomorrow is a new day, so think of it that way. Not just a new day that you woke up to, but a new you. I am not going to ask you to do these things forever," I said with a smile, and then it faded. "If I can't trust you to do simple tasks, why should you be trusted to make the choices for an entire race?"
Claire didn't look up or stop pushing her vegetables, but there was no point in berating her over this. All of this was going to take time, which I had plenty of.
