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

I stepped into my living room, and Lexi was sitting there besides herself.

"Oh! How did things go?" She asked as the portal closed behind me, but I transformed into my cat form and back to clean the stink of sex off myself before replying.

"Not really sure how it went with the other three, but Wendria got to enjoy all the things I brought her and much, much more. I think that I might have also curbed her enthusiasm for sexual torture, but I am sure it will be far from a cure for her," I said with a smile and grabbed a cup of tea before joining Lexi.

"Well, I am glad that things worked out. I still feel bad about what happened with Cancer and what I did to you," Lexi said, looking away, but I shrugged.

"Not your fault, and I don\'t blame you. In fact, Kadeon might have been able to do more damage if you hadn\'t told me about the item Cancer had given you," I said as I took a sip of tea, and Lexi looked back at me with a sigh.

"What is going to happen with Cancer and Xena?" She asked, and I shrugged again. This was something that I hadn\'t given much thought to yet, but the truth was that I didn\'t know what to do.

"Currently, they are just going to have to stay like that. I just don\'t have a way to know if Kadeon can mess with them or not yet. While I broke his connection, that doesn\'t mean he couldn\'t find another way to re-establish it through some other means. So, there is just too much uncertainty about proceeding with anything," I said, and Lexi nodded.

"What is your plan now?" She asked.

"Mess around for a bit longer, and then head to the Underworld. The place has probably changed a bit since I was last there, so I am not sure exactly how long it will take," I said, but Lexi put up a finger.

"Depending on when you were there last, the place will have changed more than a bit. The Black King has made a lot of changes, some better than others, but the Demons have started to create other cities," Lexi explained, and I raised an eyebrow.

"Wait, how do you know about the Underworld?!" I asked in confusion, and Lexi smiled and started to tell me the story.

"Well, it all started a few years ago when I stumbled across an old portal on an island near the Elfem Sea between the Elf and Golem continents. Taking a chance, I stepped through the portal and found myself in what I later learned to be the Underworld. Everything was strange and unfamiliar, but I quickly realized that I had stumbled upon something unique and powerful. I spent weeks exploring the inner depths of the Underworld and got to know many prominent demons, including Diablo and her six generals. They were intrigued by my presence and deemed me a special guest, granting me permission to explore anywhere I wanted in the realm. I took advantage of this privilege and learned more about their culture, customs, and magical practices. Eventually, I found a way to bypass the barriers between worlds and snuck away unnoticed. I returned to the surface with three powerful artifacts that I had been gifted by the generals. Since then, I have kept these items safe, never revealing them to anyone else. They are reminders of the incredible journey I embarked on, and although it was dangerous, it was also incredibly rewarding. The experiences I gained from my time in the Underworld still shape my life today."

I just sat and listened, stunned to say anything to Lexi. This woman was so much more than she seemed, and it was hard to believe that she was even able to do that. Considering all the things she knew about this world, Lexi seemed to be no stranger to danger, but that might work in my favor. I had been concerned about where I might enter since creating a portal to the Underworld didn\'t allow you to pick a location. That meant that I could be tossed to the far corner of the Underworld if I wasn\'t careful.

"Well, I really didn\'t expect this," I said as I looked Lexi over, with my chin in my hand humming.

"What are you thinking about?" she asked, and I smirked.

"How I could convince you to join me when I headed to the underworld," I chuckled, and Lexi\'s questioning look became a girlish smile.

ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom "That is rather funny, considering that I was trying to figure out the best way to explain my use so that you would include me. The last time I went, I was more concerned about staying alive, and I really didn\'t get much of a chance to explore the places outside of the main city centers. I know that you probably don\'t want to waste time, but there are a few places I would like to visit if you are willing to have me join you?" Lexi asked, her coils tightening nervously below her.

I nodded, finally allowing a genuine smile to appear on my face. "Sure, it would be nice to have someone experienced in the Underworld come with me. I can definitely use your expertise," I said, and Lexi smiled back in relief.

"Thank you, that means a lot. I promise to not let you down and do whatever I can to make sure we both get out alive," Lexi replied, and I nodded again.

"Excellent. Well, I should go check on..." I started to say, but my voice trailed off as I felt Morgana, the Lich Queen, call out to me, using my mark.

"Something wrong?" Lexi asked, and I furrowed my brow.

"Hard to say, but Morgana seems to be concerned about something, but I only get a feeling from the mark," I said, and then stood up, gesturing for a portal to find Morgana, but she had the three Demon girls with her.
