Chapter 181

”Again!” said Stella, hardly breathing hard .

Joseph was gasping, trying hard not to use his magic to help him recover . Sweat was pouring down his face and into his eyes, making him wipe them repeatedly . Standing tall, he raised his arms and the fight resumed .

Those who were lucky enough to watch, were confused how the two of them could move so fast . Their arms and legs seemed to blur, from the speed of their punches and kicks, and when you throw in the teleports and shadow jumps, it was almost impossible to keep up .

It ended so quickly, those who were watching almost fled, as if watching something they shouldn't have .

”Good, you've gotten faster . ” Stella smirked as Joseph straightened, and with a thought was fresh and clean, no sign of his exertions at all .

”You're right, that did help . I can think more clearly now . ”

”You keep thinking yourself into a corner, then freeze . I figured this might help you burn off some of that stress . ”

Joseph nodded, going back to thinking about the laws . As he reached for Stella's hand to teleport them back to the castle, he paused . The people watching them were bowing to him, now that they realized it was him .

”Stella, I've been so stupid . I keep thinking that this world is similar to the ones in my past lives . I've had the solution to my problem, all along!”

”What do you mean?” she asked him, sliding her hand into his .

TELEPORT .

He turned to her, and placed his hand against her face, cupping it gently .

”My people are all Wizar, right?”

”Yes . ”

”I made all Wizards, incredibly lawful . ”

He turned to pace, a look of delight on his face as he worked through his thought for her .

”The first law for my kingdom is not to harm another Wizard . If I place judgement spots all over the place, with the LAW rune available, any problem that arises can immediately be dealt with by visiting one of the spots and letting the LAW rune determine the correct steps to remedy any situation . My people shouldn't do anything intentionally to harm someone else, because of my first law . All my worries about men trying to ****, or women trying to ****, or murder or suicide, or anything like that, are all unfounded . If they tried to do any of those things, they would be going against the first law of the kingdom . I just need to worry about the clash of cultures, and as we get all of the cultures doc.u.mented, more of that can be dealt with in a way that would please everyone . ”

”It can't just be that easy!” exclaimed Stella .

”Well, no, there will be a lot of confusion as the cultures become known, like with the races that survive off of the fluids of other people, and we will have to deal with them . The ones that don't understand the concept of personal property will have to be taught or separated so they don't steal . Maybe that would be a good law, no stealing from other Wizar . ”

”Only other Wizar?” she asked, pulling out several daggers and inspecting them, before putting them back in her purse .

”Of course, I don't care about other kingdoms . If they attack us, I want to be able to retaliate . ”

”I guess you'll have to sit in more meetings to tell them your decision before we can leave?”

”Oh, no! I have wasted plenty of time . I've just got a few loose ends to tie up, and then we are getting on our way . ”

”A few loose ends? Like what?”

Joseph grinned, almost like his normal self .

TELEPORT .

”Why are we back here again?” she asked, looking at the destruction of the location of Nikmesh's death .
