The witch looked hard and stared deep into the palm, from what Yunan could see, her vision dove into depths unknown, watched over many crisscrossing paths and got lost in some tangled thread for a bit, what he read from her using the dream energy was vast stillness, a spark would flash here and there, but the stillness was unparalleled.

Not having a client for a long time may have driven the witch mad, but the stillness he felt was something akin to a tempering of the soul, something brought by a calmness that lasted for an eternity. As for the occasional spark, he wondered about that for a bit before being brought back to focus on the occasion by a could fingernail touching the centre of his palm.

The look on the witches face was still the same old, decrepit and strangely; now that he looked closer, it looked more like tree bark than skin. Her breath was gentle and her eyes shone the deeper she looked into Yunan's palm.

After some time the witch spoke with a tired voice, it seemed even though she looked as she did when they first met, she had spent a lot of energy on this reading. "I have karma to give, so much of it in fact that maybe only you can use it, however, this time I must ask for remuneration first."

"If the price is acceptable, then we may make a deal" Yunan answered with a bit of trepidation, he would have taken a more stable stance if he knew what the price was beforehand but the way the witch acted as she read his palm and the offer of so much karma was a little too out of his consideration.

"Well, it should be easy for you, I assume" she smiled and let go of Yunan's palm, he took a look at where the fingernail had touched, he could not help but shake the feeling he was about to sign a contract of some sort.

"What I want can be separated into two demands that you must accomplish, one must be done before you leave this place, the other is up to your discretion." she lifted he hand and raised a finger. "First, I want you to take away my power, turn me back into a mortal and send me to a place where I can regather my karma with time." she then took a long breath and raised the second finger.

To Yunan, the first finger had a weight to it, as if she was lifting some burden when she made the demand, following that analogy, the second finger was incomparably heavy, even unfurling it took its toll on the witch. Yunan scrunched his eyebrows, he understood that this second demand was why she gave up all her power as well as all the karma she had accumulated her entire life.

"There is a universe out there that must be destroyed, a place where Karma is used as currency, the creator of that universe has already been stricken down by his karma, but the universe itself still exists, it has been a while since I have been there myself, and I assume it has become even worse, I want it destroyed, removed from existence, you may use any method you see fit to get rid of it."

As the witch finished her words, she trembled and collapsed, he breath ragged and her energy distorted, Yunan had some guesses on why and according to the clues he got, this witch has lived to see that place destroyed, even if it meant her destruction along with it.

With the witch being as exhausted as she was, she missed a glint of happiness in Yunan's eyes, he would never have thought he would literally walk into the huge treasure this easily, he was literally getting paid to get stronger.

In his mind, the gears were spinning like mad, another pure universe was already in his path, and this one was full of pure karma and will greatly impact the future of this excursion to the best possible way. Yunan's innate karmic luck might even get upgraded, or maybe he would get enough karma to no longer fear bad luck for the rest of his life. The only sore thumb was the annihilation of the beings inside the karmic universe.

As if reading his thoughts, the witch told him something he never thought was even possible. "Trading karma is not the main reason I wanted to destroy that universe, the main reason is that its inhabitants are well versed in stealing good karma and implanting their accumulated bad karma into other universes, although its creator died to his own bad karma, he was very good at spreading the bad karma he got from creating such a universe, and his creations mastered that ability as well. Many universes have fallen prey to them, many universes are used as karma farms and/or dumps and that is unacceptable".

There was a moment where Yunan froze, and for a very long moment he could not comprehend the words that were spouted by the witch, the idea of an entire universe's livelihood, for everything to be based on stealing good karma and sowing bad karma, the repercussion of this has already killed the creator, but for the universe to still exist, the Law of karma must be very pure in that universe.

And then a thought bloomed in Yunan's mind, the witch, she must have stolen all the good karma on her from residents of that universe, then another idea that was even more terrifying took hold of him, what if she got all this good karma from taking away the bad karma from the universes inflicted by those guys.

Yunan never thought of himself as righteous, his own karma and luck were gotten from good deeds and bad, he did influence the lives of others by changing laws, taking away their luck, sarong them, footing them into belief. But he had never attempted to do harm to others just for the sake of himself, he actions may have harmed others in his selfishness, but nothing was done for the sake of harm, taking someone's good karma and dumping the ad karma on them was something Yunan would have never considered, even the enemies he fought were dealt with directly, none of them got killed due to bad luck or bad karma.
