Lesha and I both found a weapon and were going to give Mei a dagger that was nice and small, perfect for her. Then she asked which end to hold, so I slipped it into my boot instead. I would have to teach her how to use it in the future, for now, she could just hit them with trees. After collecting what we needed and I took four hundred gold coins, I got Mei to come over and stand in front of me in her cute little purple robe.
"Where do you want your new crest? It looks like this," I said, pointing to the red crest I had on the top of my breast with the ink bleeding into the fold of my chest.
"Ooo, can I feel?"
"You know you are quite the little twerp, go ahead, but do start getting handsy with me or I'll be putting you over my knee! We are going to have to teach you some common sense, among other things."
Mei touched the mark gently, but I could almost see trouble and mischief chasing each other through her mind. She tried to sit her hand in the fold of my breasts, but I swatted her hand and she pulled it back giggling at me.
"K, your boobs are so soft! Miss Lesha, can I feel your mark next?!" Mei asked, jumping up and down.
"No, please let K give you the Crest so we can get going, we still have to stop by a shop for armor, and a shield. You can't be asking to touch our breasts Mei, be patient, we will find someone for you, or figure out something," Lesha said with the patient smile and eyes closed.
"Fine, but I want it in the same place as you guys have it!" Mei said, ripping open her robe to reveal her small breasts and pointy nipples.
They didn't look as bad, but I was still gentle, but Mei pulled back with a little squeal the second my hand touched her breast.
"Your hands are so cold! It's like you stuck them on a chunk of ice!" Mei complained, covering herself back up with a shiver.
I put my hand to my face, and it was cold, like ice. Weird, it wasn't like that before, why was I so cold now?
'You need to absorb more blood, the girls will not be enough on their own. You have depleted almost all of your reserves, it is time to go to the dungeon for training. You will not be needing that mace, leave it, the shield is what you need.' -Drania.
I grabbed Mei's robe and pulled her close, reaching my hands inside her robe. Grabbing the top of her breast, while still trying to be as gentle as possible, I thought the command. Mei stopped and leaned forward, into my hand. Mei then almost fell over when I pulled my hand and tried to stumble into me.
It was one of those little tarts games, and I sidestepped her, but I grabbed the back of her robes before she actually hurt herself. I didn't let go of her, instead, I turned to Lesha and motioned to the door, but she gave me one of those looks that said, that's what you're going to do? I signed and tossed Mei over my shoulder and shrugged at Lesha when she rolled her eyes at me.
The two of us walked up the stairs and into the Guild where Healia was sitting, and I could see her unblemished side where both of us had hit her. Her healing was out of this world, it had only been maybe an hour of looking around downstairs and she was already completely healed and drinking tea as nothing happened. When we got close, Healia put her tea down, then stood up to face me, and then she bowed her head to me, not much but enough to see what she was trying to do.
"I am sorry K, I deserved every bit that you girls gave me, and I won't be trying any more tricks like that on you or the girls, I give you my word. Plus, if you had another servant, there might not be a Guild left. Today was the first time I have opened the fourth gate since I first arrived, impressive, and good news for us. As I said, I will refrain from touching you or the girls like that, but I can't promise the same for the rest of the members, and your handsome brothers!"
"That's fine, just don't kill them. As for the rest of the members, I really think some will join just for the chance to be abused by you. Men are weird like that."
"Oh, Only men? I think some girls can be like that as well, plus the men are no fun when they get like that. Also, Little Miss Mei, you should tell the girls your story tonight, I think they would like to hear it, and then you can leave Mei with Gram two days out of the week for training. I will be with them teaching her reading and writing and Gram will teach her basic combat."
"Hm? You want me to trust you just like that? No, Leana will do her teaching, and I will do the training with Lesha."
"You will not have time," Healia countered.
"I will make time for her!" I growled.
"Fine, calm down, you're really a hair-trigger, aren't you?" Healia joked as she sat back down.
"I have known you for six months now, and I see you every day. The fact that I don't just immediately try to kill you should mean that I am trying!" But, Lesha put a hand on my arms to bring down the finger I was stabbing in Healia's position.
"Well, at least you have her to tame you when you need it. Go see your father and then get to the dungeon. I will have a Gram bag and tag everything from the applicants and then you can come in tomorrow and deal with them. Oh, and don't plan on doing much of anything else, tomorrow you will be doing a lot of work with the guild to get it up to functioning order!"
