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

Chapter 352 Everything You Have Done

"Cat God! It is good to see you again!" The innkeeper exclaimed as she came out from the kitchen with a tray of food. "I assumed that you might be bringing some guests, so I had the cook prepare a little something for them."

I hadn't got the woman's name last night when we were here, but I knew that she was the one that had waited up. I also knew that she wanted a more proper outfit, so I decided to give her one as well.

"That was very considerate of you," I said as the innkeeper blushed and set the tray down on a table before gesturing for everyone to sit. "Please, sit and enjoy. Your food will be here momentarily."

"Thank you," Lana said as she sat down in the chair closest to me while Mona sat on the other side of her. The rest of the women followed suit, and then the innkeeper went back into the kitchen while another woman came out with another tray of food.

"I am sorry for not introducing myself last night; my name is Natalie," The innkeeper said as she set the food down before taking a seat herself. "I just wanted to personally come and thank you for everything that you have done so far for us. I had no idea when you and the goddess could win in that this would be the outcome. Things are still going to be hard, but now people are going to be able to sleep a lot easier."

"I am not done with the town by a long shot yet, but I have to go deal with some of the worse-off towns first," I explained as Natalie nodded her head in understanding.

"I understand, and we appreciate everything that you have done," Natalie said as she looked over at the other women. "Once you have all had your fill, we have some rooms upstairs that you can use to rest in."

"Thank you," Lana said as she looked over at me. "I don't know how to thank you for everything that you have done."

"You don't need to thank me. I am just doing what I think is right," I said with a shrug before standing up from my seat. "But now, I must be going. Take care, everyone."

With that, I created a portal and stepped through it, not looking back as the people started to applaud again before the portal closed behind me.

I was off to the side of the memorial that I had created, but there was already a large group of women that were either crying or had sad and confused looks on their faces. I could understand their feelings, so I walked down and over to the statue that I had created, and all eyes fell on me.

"I know that things have been hard for you all, and people have lost their lives. I have gotten back the captured ones so far, but there was a good number already dead. I have all their bodies in my pouch as ash, and I will spread them over the ocean," I explained, and questions erupted from all the women gathered.

"How did they die?"

"Did they suffer?"

"Who killed them?"

I held up my hand, and everyone quieted down, looking at me with expectant looks. "I will answer all of your questions, but it is a lot to take in, and I need you all to be calm when I do."

Everyone nodded their heads before sitting down on the ground since there were not enough chairs for everyone. I started from the beginning about the Black Goat Cult and continued until the end when I was able to rescue everyone. There were gasps of horror at some of the things that had happened, but thankfully no one fainted or threw up. That would have just made things worse.

"Are they all really dead?" One woman asked, and I nodded my head.

"Yes, they are all dead. I killed them myself, but there are still more that I have to hunt down, but I have the leader, and three of the five demons, so it is only a matter of time before I catch them all or kill them," I replied, and the woman looked relieved before sighing.

"Thank you for telling us what happened," The woman said before she looked over at the other women. "I think we all need some time to process this."

"Sure, but I am going to be doing a major renovation to the town, so I would ask that everyone stays inside their houses. If you can all spread the word with the Vine, that would be very helpful, and to get inside yourselves," I explained, and the women all started to get up and nodded their heads.

"We can do that," One said as she looked over at the others. "I think we should also have a town meeting to discuss things."

"That is a good idea, but I would wait until after I am done with the repairs. I don't want anyone getting hurt while I am working," I explained, and the woman nodded her head in understanding before gesturing for everyone to follow her.

"Thank you for everything that you have done!" Someone shouted as they walked away, and I waved before opening a portal to a place just outside of town.

My Cat-Robin was scouting Lorient, the next town over, but now I needed more helpers. This time I was looking for some chittering squirrels, and it didn't take me very long to find five of them that I tamed. I could have done a lot more, but these ones would be more than enough after I was done with them.

I blessed each one, but I used special speed, slower metabolism, and also tracking runes on each of them, and they each would vanish from my hands. Once I was done, I opened a portal to the mound of earth that used to be the temple where Joselyn was trapped in.
