500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System-Chapter 52 Stronger Then Me?
The Holy Beholder stood beside Tallia quietly, but I could tell anger was burning under the surface. She was chewing on her lip, and her fists were clenched at the pale-skinned wingless Angels' side.
"I am leaving, but make sure you take care of her. Whether she has done wrong or not, she is not being sent to you to be executed, so I expect her to be alive and well the next time we meet," Tallia told me, and I crossed my arms, narrowing my eyes on the Goddess.
"Just what do you think that I am going to be doing with her?" I growled, and Tallia borrowed her eyes back.
"You just said that you were going to leave her in the middle of nowhere," Tallia growled back, and I rolled my eyes, throwing my hands in the air.
"It was a joke! Breya, I would not do anything that would directly harm the Holy Beholder. Tell this woman that is the truth!" I told Breya, but she shook her head.
"I can't because that is a lie. You plan on putting Claire over your knee and spanking her until her bottom becomes purple, right? Can I watch it? I am interested in how your version of discipline works," Breya asked curiously, and I facepalmed as Claire flinched back.
"What?! You can't do that to me!" Claire, the Holy Beholder, shouted, finally coming out of her thoughts and stepping back again.
"You should have thought about that before trying to destroy an entire city. I am fine with discipline as long as you are not intentionally causing harm or pain. I am sure I don't have to tell you this, but I am stronger than you, and so are the rest of the Goddesses. Tread carefully because I won't always be there to help you," Tallia said and then disappeared, sucking into a single point of golden light.
"Breya! You can't let him do this to me! Look at me! I have already had everything taken from me! Do not let Tallia's dog have me!" Claire yelled, looking at Breya, who crossed her arms.
"Do you really think that I would stop this?" Breya asked and then advanced on Claire. "You might find it easy to forget, but you are the one that sent me here to rot away from my partner! Don't think you will see a single drop of sympathy from me or anyone for that matter! If Galio chooses to punish you, just know that it is only a portion of what you deserve!" Breya snapped as Claire backed into the wall.'
"Breya, since you seem to like this one so much, you should watch her for us. We will never get anything done with her with us. I also need someone to watch the shop while I am gone. The misbegotten child can help you," Listenia ordered, and Breya blinked in surprise.
"What?! I don't know anything about selling weapons or armor! I have… things to do… I am sure of it…." Breya declared, but her excuses were weak, and Listenia wasn't the type to hear what other people said.
"You will be fine. Just scowl at everyone, and if the customers don't want to pay the price on the tag, kick them out of the store! Easy!" Listenia said.
"Why am I watching this thing? Go put her in school with Katarina… or maybe not. She wasn't able to tame Eliza, and this one is far worse than the Countess," Breya said as she walked over to behind the counter.
"Because I told you to. Did you not clean your ears or something this morning? I also laid claim on this one yesterday, and you knew that, yet you still took him up to a cloud. Now, this creature is here, so you are the one at fault here. If anyone should be watching her, it should be you," Listenia growled, and Breya sighed.
"Fine, but you had better bring me back at least a single slice of cake! I don't mind working, but a woman should be paid for her services!" Breya demanded, and Listenia nodded.
"This is fine. Galio will bring you some, ouch! Would you like to get hurt?" Listenia snapped as I pinched her tight, firm ass.
"Don't test me. I love your spirit, but if you don't turn back into that cute Elf from the basement in the next five seconds, you are going over my lap. I can poke you in five places that will stop you from being able to move, no matter how strong you are. Stop acting like I am your little helper. You, Listenia, are my Blacksmith, and you asked me for that role, so don't get things twisted," I said in a low and deadly tone. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮
I wasn't messing around. Listenia had been cute yesterday, and I had put up with her attitude.
I was tired of this woman acting like she was doing me a favor; I could go alone. Nothing bothered me more than these women laying claim to me as well.
"You really think that-" Listenia started to say, but Breya stopped her.
"Don't! He isn't lying! Even you need to mind yourself with this one! Do not say words you will regret; they can not be taken back after!" Breya declared, and Listenia turned to look at Breya in confusion.
"What are you trying to say? Galio is stronger than me? Impossible! I can see that I could easily defeat him!" Listenia shouted, looking between the angel and me.
"Strike him then, Daughter of Elfinia, if you think I do not speak the truth! I would really love to see what happens!" Breya taunted, and Listenia did just that, slapping at me lightning fast. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮
I blocked the strike and then punched the Elf in the side of the face, smashing her through the counter beside Breya. Nothing is more irritating than people who just assumed they could do whatever they wanted.
"Ouch! That looked like it hurt!" Breya said as Claire ran over to hide behind her.
"Get up," I told Listenia, and the Elf pulled herself from the smashed and broken wood.
"You aren't human," Listenia growled.
"You wanna see if that was a fluke? I might not be as strong as a God, but I won't take shit from anyone. Think about that next time you think about raising a hand to me. I never did anything to provoke you other than ask you to treat me as an equal," I threatened.
