500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System

Chapter 201 The Golden Voice Of Reason



I could feel Negative Energy starting to leak out of me from dark cracks that were forming on my skin, but I didn\'t care. This was the creature that took everything from me, and now I would remove her permanently.

"Wait! I never killed anyone! I have only been doing what I was told!" Xena screamed at me as she tried to open a portal to escape, but I grabbed her before she could.

"Never killed anyone? WAS SHE THAT EASY FOR YOU TO FORGET?!" I roared, and then through her threw another wall and out into the open air.

She fell down three stories and then crashed into a pavilion. I jumped down and slammed into the ground, and walked over to pick Xena off the ground.

If she was the center of all of this, then I would just end it all now. Killing this creature would make the world a better place, and after what she did to Tallia…

"What are you doing?!" Tallia exclaimed as a portal opened beside me, but I pushed her back into the portal.

"Stay back! This creature already took you from me once, and I will not let her do it to me again!" I roared, feeling the Negative Energy building up inside of me like it had before.

"Stop! You don\'t want to do this! Look at yourself, Galio! You are becoming just like her!" Tallia screamed.

"What does it matter? If I had only taken things seriously, this would have never happened! I will walk down any path as long as it leads me to you!" I shouted, glaring into Xena\'s scared-looking eyes, but something was wrong.

"You need to stop, Galio. This is not who you are, and Killing her isn\'t going to change things! You are the strongest, but that means that you should be able to find a solution to every problem! This is not the solution! This will only bring more pain!" Tallia told me as I shook with fury.

"Just let him, Tallia. You may not remember this, but I did kill you, but I just wanted him to love me the same way that he loved you," Xena said, still staring back into my eyes. It was like watching the scene from my memories play over and over again.

"That may be, but this is not who Galio is! You told me that you can fix her! Then do it!" Tallia snapped, but I couldn\'t right now.

"There is too much Negative right now, and there is no way that I-" I started to say, but then Tallia jumped back out of the portal and kissed me.

It hit me with such a shock that I let go of Xena. Almost instantly, a dark portal opened, and Xena threw herself into it. I should have stopped her, but I didn\'t think Tallia would have let me if I had tried.

"Killing is not the right way if you have a better option," Tallia said as she slowly pulled her face back from mine.

"Why are these people like this, Tallia? The Peekaans should not have been allowed to get this bad," I said, but Tallia gave me a look.

"Don\'t be so quick to judge everything you see and hear. There is much more to these people than you might think. Next time you speak to a dignitary or a Queen, you had better take the Goddess of the island along with you. You know, so you would know that the reason why the Peekaans dislike the Easterners is that they are lazy," Tallia said with a sigh as she looked around at the mess that I had made.

"Lazy? They don\'t really seem that bad from when I met them," I said, and Tallia laughed bitterly.

"That is because you have only talked with them in the evening. While I agree branding you as a traitor was not the right way of doing things. Holding the Queen out of a window and kicking her advisor through the castle was not either. If you had asked me to join you, I could have explained everything about the place, and then I could have acted as a mediator. Instead, you went with a local that really has no clue what you are capable of. This was very irresponsible coming from you, and considering what we are going to be facing in just over a day," Tallia scolded, and I just stood there stunned.

I just got slapped in the face with all of that, and she was one hundred and ten percent right. I had gotten so drawn up in what had happened that in my dreams, I only looked at what other people were doing.

Now I have made a very large mess of things.

"Good. You at least seem to understand, and you are calming down. I am going to go talk to Melrose and try to smooth things out with her. While I do that, I want you to fix the massive mess that you just made. When you are done, we are all going to sit down and have a nice long talk, just like we should have in the first place," Tallia said and then tried to pull away from me, but I didn\'t let go.

"I know that I was an idiot here, but do you think that we can stand like this for a little longer? I had a really bad dream last night, but it was more than a dream; it was something that actually happened. I wasn\'t able to protect you," I said, feeling the Negative start to rise, but then I let out a yelp as Tallia bit me.

"None of that! I am still here, so you just have to keep me safe. Something tells me that the Blood Witch will be keeping her distance from you for a long time. Give me a kiss so I can go deal with the women that you have upset," Tallia said with a warm smile that burned away the darkness and brought a smile to my face that I pressed to her lips.

Once the kiss was finished, Tallia pulled back with a smile that was different than before. She opened a portal, and I was left on the balcony area that I had made a mess of.
