244 Reuniting With Sari (2)

Rhefia led me past the various praying warriors and guided me around the large statue of Areseta and Serenata, revealing a large set of doors leading outside behind the cathedral.

A few of the members of the Warrior Guild glanced our way, narrowing their eyes as they saw our cloaked bodies and veiled faces, but no one went out of their way to stop us or question us, instead going back to whatever they were doing.

Opening the doors, Rhefia took ahold of my hand and walked outside onto a large swathe of sand, the sounds of clattering blades and roars filling the air.

Sweat and the metallic scent of blood mixed with the heat that permeated the area, while sparks flew as warriors fought against one another, their blades dancing through the air leaving behind glittering arcs.

Some of the sand was dyed red, and those that had been wounded stumbled away, towards the edge of the pit where women dressed in pale green robes waited, beaded necklaces - mala - dangling from their hands as they healed the wounded.

A few of the healers were in pink robes instead, and their version of healing was vastly different from the prayers that those in green muttered.

They reached forwards and unbuckled the pants of the warriors in front of them, revealing their cocks or pussies and leaning forwards to lap at them, pleasuring the warriors until they came.

Where the green healers prayed and shrouded themselves and the wounded in a green and gold light, the pink healers were surrounded by a pink light that funneled towards the warriors, healing them as they came.

Surprisingly, the lines for the healers were heavily weighted for the green instead of the pink, but considering those that came from the pink left, I imagine that was a way to incentivize training hard.

And considering there was the soft sounds of moaning coming from a small shack built off towards the side of the sandy ground where those women went, I didn't need to think too much to know that the warriors released their excess energy inside those pink priestesses.

Rhefia tugged on my hand though, pulling me through the crowd of fighting warriors and traversing it in a way that kept us away from the thickest of the fight.

Women sparred, grappled, and beat one another, and a few glanced at Rhefia and I as we walked, with one lunging towards the Deerkin, surprising me.

However, Rhefia reached out and redirected the lunging woman to the side before slamming her foot into her ribs, kicking her away.

"Stick close. A part of the reason I joined the army instead of the Warrior's Guild is this; they're all fucking crazed battle maniacs. This pit is free game for anyone, and if Sari's any bit the Captain she claims to be..."

Sighing, Rhefia gestured towards the center, where a dozen women were crowding around one person.

"That is where we'll find Sari."

I nodded, warily looking around as Rhefia led me deeper into the cluster of fighting, towards the woman that Rhefia believed would be Sari.

And as we walked we observed that crowd, where we saw the familiar blur of black fur as a Catkin slashed her sword across a Boarkin's stomach, her armored figure flashing around as she dodged a barrage of swords and axes.

The simple blade in her hands flickered around her opponents guard and scored shallow wounds across their bodies, forcing them to step back and click their tongues as they went to get healed, needing to fight through the rest of the warriors to reach the priestesses.

Confirming that it was Sari, I clenched Rhefia's hand and got a nod in return, giving me the okay to shout "Sari!"

Her head snapped towards me, and I saw her yellow eyes widen in surprise as I waved at her, before a giant grin split her face.

"Alright girls! Outta my way!!"

A Minotaur tried to charge into her back, but Sari spun around that and dragged an Orc into the woman's path, causing the two to be taken from the fight.

Parrying the thin rapier of an Elf, Sari slammed her shoulder into the woman's chest and knocked her away, before slashing her blade across an Eaglekin's side, opening a large gash.

Her fist flew towards the remaining Rabbitkin's cheek, sending the smaller woman staggering back before she collapsed, knocked out cold.

The Catkin sauntered over towards us, the other warriors all backing away as her grin widened, those sharp fangs and gleam in her eye scaring them away.

Sheathing her blade, she spread her arms out and said "Well if it isn't my two new favorite people~! The Deerkin and Astra~! How's it been?"

She threw her arm over my shoulder and stroked my stomach, her grin softening as she stared down at it, before looking towards Rhefia as she replied "Good enough. We made some solid coin after you left, and managed to get Prixisia transferred to us. Is everything in order for you?"

Sari kissed my temple, purring softly as she buried her nose into my hair, inhaling my scent.

"Oh, I was just messing around until you guys showed up. All the paperwork's done, I just need to turn in my Captain medallion. Come, let's go see the Guildmaster. I would like to finally be able to relax for a change..."

With her arm firmly around my shoulder, Sari just beamed at Rhefia as my wife continued to hold my hand, most likely glaring at the Catkin from under her veil.

The two continued that even as we walked towards the door, making me sigh as I was stuck between them, though my heart was warm as the mint and vanilla around me mixed beautifully.

Entering the cathedral once more, Sari led us up towards the second floor of the cathedral, walking along the parapets that led back towards the entrance, where the Guildmaster apparently resided.

She released me reluctantly as she entered, Rhefia and I waiting outside for a minute before Sari returned, her yellow eyes locking onto my face as she approached me.

Flipping up the veil, she leaned down and pressed her lips against mine, kissing me deeply and passionately before whispering "So begins a new chapter of my life, I suppose..."

Allowing the veil to return to normal, she grinned at Rhefia as she added "I do look forwards to exploring and enjoying life with you both..."
