500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System-Chapter 473 Mark Me
"Umm, do you think that you can put it on the side of my neck?" Penny asked as she turned her head to the side to expose the soft white skin of her neck to me.
"Your neck?" I asked, and Penny nodded.
"I am one of your mates, so I will never take another now. I know that at some point, we will go back to my island, and I want everyone to know that I am yours. I was very quiet and shy, even among Red Healers, so I would like to go back proudly wearing your mark," Penny said, and I smiled.
"Of course, I would be honored to mark you like that," I said before leaning in and giving her a gentle kiss on the side of her neck, right next to where my mark would go.
Penny closed her eyes and enjoyed the sensation as I kissed her skin gently. When I was finished, I used a finger to draw out my Zodiac symbol. As soon as it was done, she felt a warmth run through her body, and then a flash of light illuminated us both.
I looked up as a bright light surrounded us, and Penny smiled at me.
"Now everyone will know. I am yours," She said, and I leaned in for another passionate kiss.
We stayed like that until the light faded away, and I could feel Penny relax into my arms. We held each other, talking softly until, eventually, we fell asleep.
In the morning, when I woke up, Penny was still snuggled up against me, and I smiled as I enjoyed one of the simpler pleasures of being a God. If I was just a normal person, none of this would ever have been possible. Not that I wanted that, but I had to wonder what it would have been like if I was just a normal person?
"Mmm, morning," Penny murmured as she stirred in my arms, and I smiled.
"Good morning," I said softly before giving her a gentle kiss.
Penny smiled and then sat up, stretching out before turning to look at me.
"We better get going," Penny said, and I nodded before getting ready.
Soon, we were both dressed and ready to go, but before leaving, Penny looked at the door to make sure it was locked. As she did, I stepped behind her and gave her one last hug before leaning down and kissing her neck where my mark had been placed.
"That is just so that you remember who you belong to," I whispered in her ear, and she laughed.
"I think that I will always remember that now," She said before turning to give me a quick peck on the lips.
"Good, I am going to take a bit to get the girls settled down south, but I will come and get everyone this evening. The Amazons are going to take some training before I bring you girls around them," I explained as we walked down through the house.
"I don't think you have to train them too much. We all had to deal with Kalli, so most of us knew how to handle people like her. Most of them aren't even that strong," Penny explained as we headed north.
The sun was still hidden behind the huge wall that divided the continent, but I was going to change that in the future. That just wasn't on the urgent list of things to do currently; I already had more than enough on my plate.
"Thank you for walking with me. I know that you could have just made a portal like the goddesses, but I really like that you took the time to walk with me in the fresh morning air," Penny said with a smile, and I nodded as we approached the Barracks.
"Not a problem. I like to do things like this now and then, so I don't mind," I said as we reached the door, but it opened up as we did, and O'Lee walked out.
"You. I did not expect to see you here," O'Lee said as Penny waved bye and slipped back the Orc woman.
"Just walking Penny back here. Are you heading out to train?" I asked, and O'Lee nodded.
"You come with me?" O'Lee asked, and I shrugged.
"Yeah, I think I can spare some time, but I have a new course set up that I built at my new school. Do you want to come and try it?" I asked, but then added, "It is not going to be as intense as normal, but you can give me some suggestions on what I could do to make it more challenging."
"Hmm? You made a place to train?" O'Lee asked, and I motioned for a portal to open to the beach.
"Yeah, but it is still a work in progress. I can change it at will, so if it is too easy, just tell me," I said and stepped through. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m
O'Lee followed me through, and the portal closed. She started to look around and then shrugged. "It looks okay." 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
While I was making the school, I had been working on a training course near the beach. It was pretty extensive, but it wasn't really for the Amazons. They were all in great shape, but it was the other people of other races that I had created this for.
The beach was filled with rocky outcroppings that were spaced apart in a manner that forced participants to climb, jump, and maneuver around them. There were also several elevated platforms that required participants to balance on while facing various obstacles, including logs, cargo nets, tightropes, and ropes suspended from high beams. Each of these features challenges the participant's mental and physical endurance, strength, and agility. The course culminates with a final sprint over a series of large rocks that must be navigated quickly and accurately. The entire obstacle course tests a person's coordination, strength, and speed, as well as their ability to think on their feet and remain focused under pressure.
"I have never seen something like this. What are all the things for? I don't understand them," O'Lee said, and I smiled.
