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

"Wait for us, Nya~!" Nya called out as she ran over, pulling Luck behind her, waving her piece of paper with the number '3' on it.

"This woman never stops!" Luck complained as she was dragged over, but she had a big smile on her face.

Nya was wearing a thin, white dress with sparkles, and she had a silver tiara on her head that glistened in the unnatural turquoise from above. She was so beautiful it almost hurt to look at her for too long.

"Are we already here? If so, let's get going! I want to find the best presents for the High Elves!" Nya said as she bounced from side to side, and Luck shook her head as she pulled free.

"Yes, we are ready! Let's go!" Titania said as she and the others in Group three started to walk off.

Luck, Nemoria, and I followed behind them, taking one last look at our friends as they all disappeared into their respective groups. We would meet up with them later, but for now, it was time to start looking for gifts.

The Zodia Mall was a place that I created on the farthest north section of my island, but it was technically not part of my island. Countless years ago, I had been relaxing with Virgo, of all people, but she had brought up a reasonable idea, so I had heard her out.

"While you might think this is silly, have you ever considered creating an amusement park or something to entertain everyone? I know that most wouldn't care about rides and suck, but I was also thinking about you closest. We all have sections in there where we place things we make for you when we are bored, but what if you took it a step further?" She had asked.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" I replied, and she smiled.

"A mall. While I don't really care about rides of that kind of fun, what I do like is shopping, and we really don't have anything like that. Even if we did, one of us would have to make it, and we are all limited to our islands and Yaggisdral. What I am trying to say is that you are the only person I think that is diverse enough to make a place like this where we would never get bored, and we would get to see things most of us have not."

That was how the place came to be, and looking up at the place now made me grin. Since I had been left to my own devices, and I was told to make it interesting, I had spent a better part of a century putting love into this city-sized outlet. Now we walked through the sliding glass doors into the first section of the mall: The Crystal Caves.

"This is the first time that I have seen the inside of this place," Nemoria said with wonder as she walked beside me, and I nodded.

"That is true. I never let you come see the place for free; you might destroy it. Laughable now how that worried me," I smiled, and Nemoria leaned into me as she looked around.

The first part of the Zodia mall from the south entrance was an area of tunnels that had been illuminated with white crystals everywhere. It was like walking through a dream, and the further we went in, the more magical it felt.

We eventually reached the main lobby of the Zodia Mall: The Crystal Lobby. This place was filled with shops lined up on either side, each one decorated differently. There were also restaurants that served food from many different cultures, as well as entertainment options that changed depending on what day it was. This was an all-in-one type of paradise.

"Well, this looks like a good place to start," Nemoria said as she looked around at the brightly lit shops, her eyes sparkling in wonder.

"I think so, too," Luck said as she took in the sights and smells.

"Tallia!" I called up, and her group four stopped with her to turn back to me. "Do you want to grab a bite to eat with us before we all split off?"

Tallia smiled and nodded as her group came back over to where we were standing. "I was wondering about all these places that have people serving food," she said and smiled at her mother as her group stopped in front of mine.

"None of them are real people, just dolls that I created that have specific jobs. If you try to ask a person working at one of the food places where something is not related to food, they will ignore you like you never spoke. Ask them anything about food, and they will give you any information you need about any food served here. It was the best I could do since I didn't want to have real people here all the time," I explained, and Tallia nodded appreciatively.

"What do you suggest?" She asked, and Goldy laughed.

"Everything is the best food you have ever tried, so just take a walk around and look! There are so many things to choose from, and you get whatever food that you order as soon as you do!" Goldy cheered as she pulled Giantessa off to The Trembling Taqueria.

We all followed after them, making it our mission to find the best meal possible. We laughed and joked as we made our way around, stopping to get food here and there before finally ending back up at The Trembling Taqueria.

"That was fun! I don't think I have ever been this full in my life," Fate said with a content sigh as she leaned against one of the tables.

"Agreed!" Titania said, rubbing her stomach. "Now, let's go shopping for those presents!"

We finished off with a few rounds of drinks before finally splitting up and going off on our own to look for the perfect present for each High Elf Elder. We were all on a mission, but most importantly, I wanted to make sure that everyone got to have some fun. They had all spent a long time waiting for me to get here, so once the High Elf Gifts were given and an agreement made, I planned on spending a couple days with the girls.
