500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System
Chapter 233 Riftwalker Pt1"One more thing," I said, and Tallia looked up at me. "I need you to promise me that no matter what happens, you will stay safe. No matter if I tell you something, you will listen to me explicitly."
"I promise," Tallia said as she hugged me tightly. "But do not forget your own promise."
"And what is that?" I asked with a raised eyebrow as the light grew even brighter now and began taking on a distinct shape. It looked like something was pushing through the seal now.
"What happened last time we were here," Tallia said sternly, and I grit my teeth in frustration. "You promised not to let anyone die because of your choices." She looked up at me with serious eyes then, and it made my heart skip a beat when she spoke again softly, "And please do not die because of mine either."
"I will not let anything ever separate us again. All you need to do is listen to me. If I say you go, you are through a portal before I am finished speaking. This thing can do more than just kill you, and I am already worried about having you with me. My idiot brother pretty much doomed us to get the worst possible summons," I groaned as I pulled my hand over my face.
"Leo? How did he make it worse?!" Tallia asked in confusion.
"Bad Mojo. Sounds stupid, but Mojo is Karma's annoying little brother. When normal people say something like, "what is the worst that could happen?" Mojo hears this and usually tries to make the person pay for being so callous to say something so stupid. When one of us Zodiacs does it, the worst possible outcome is the only outcome, and that bastard knew it! Cocksucker even said it twice!" I complained, but Tallia was still giving me a strained look.
"You talk like these are real people?!" Tallia exclaimed, and I nodded.
"They are. Think of them like lesser Gods. They are more powerful than you now, but not if you were in Yaggisdral because their powers only affect the Mortal Realms. There are quite a few of them. Karma, Mojo, Fate, Destiny, Murphy, and many more. Each of them can affect us here, but their effects are strongest on us Zodiacs. Fate and Mojo are especially interested in me because I made the most trips to the Mortal Realms," I explained, and Tallia slowly nodded.
"If this Mojo thing is anything like Karma, we need to be careful," Tallia said sternly, and I nodded before pulling her into a hug with a smile.
"Karma is the only one that likes me, but that is why Mojo hates me. Weirdo has one of those sister complex things. It's complicated," I chuckled, and Tallia gave me a look.
"Is there anyone that you haven't slept with up there?" Tallia asked, and I rolled my eyes laughing.
"Yes, there are a few, but Karma is a nice person as long as you make stupid choices," I said, and Tallia gave me a look again and furrowed my eyebrows. "I don't make that many!"
"She must really have a thing for you, or I would assume that you were about to get hit by a mountain at some point in the near future," Tallia said, grinning up at me, but then burst into giggles as I started to tickle her.
As Tallia fought against me laughing, I wondered if I could go see Karma and that bitch Fate. Not now, but there was a possibility that she might be able to change my system since she was the one that gave it to me. It would have been so nice just to have all my memories back, but I was still getting pieces. Leo's comment is what made me think about Mojo, but while I would have a pleasant talk with Karma, Fate was my mother's lap dog.
"What are you thinking-" Tallia started to say, but suddenly the light from the red spell circle dimmed, and then the circles started to turn. We had only moments before they locked into place.
"Portal us halfway between here and the wall! Now!" I commanded as we both jumped up, and Tallia didn't hesitate. The portal snapped open, and I grabbed Tallia, jumping through and to the side as a beam of red energy the size of the portal shot out.
"Close it!" I said, and Tallia did so, cutting off the beam. Worst. Case. Scenario. Ever. Fuck.
"What happened?!" Tallia exclaimed as I let her go, but then I pointed at the massive red dome of energy swirling a mile wide and half a mile tall.
"Bad Mojo! You need to get on the wall now and make sure that everyone focuses everything on the Brood Mother Riftwalker! I will take care of the rest, but you have to keep the big one tied up! It can create Lesser Riftwalkers as big as the Undead one we fought, so you need to keep pounding it, so it has to concentrate on healing!" I told Tallia, and she already had the portal to the wall where the others were waiting, but I could see the terrified looks. "You have to keep everyone's spirits up. I love you, but I have to do this part alone."
"I know! I love you too! Make them wish they were never summoned!" Tallia said after quickly kissing me and then jumping through the portal.
It closed, and I turned to the massive red dome, talking in a deep breath, and closed my eyes. Pure Magic flowed into me as I started to buff myself, rings of spells appearing above me one after another as they started to spin. Once they locked, they dropped, and the next spell started until I had cast thirty-five different buffs making my body bulge.
I pulled out Blood Drinker and slid it across my arm as I healed myself, letting the sword drink like a pig. The red blade started to make me grip the blade harder, and I pulled the blade back as my arm healed up. The weapon was insanely heavy, and I was forced to hold the blade with two hands, but I prepared the last three spells and waited.
