Chapter 70
Kanae, Edina, and Arenade froze up. There was no getting out of this. Bishop Rudo knew their faces, especially Arenade's after having worked together for some time.
"These infidels are the ones who attacked the Cathedral of One! Apprehend them now!" Bishop Rudo pointed an accusing finger, shouting for guards and adventurers to attack.
However, most everyone was too busy pushing and shoving to get the free sex toys being passed out. Those who were immediately around the bishop and heard looked at him like he was crazy.
Kanae singled out a few civilians in the crowds, charming them to come to their defense.
"The hell are you talking about, old man? The perps have already been caught!"
"Yeah! You're just making shit up to cut in line!"
"Get outta here!"
The three who were mind-controlled started a domino effect of gathering more people to join in the heckling. Bishop Rudo and his fellow priests lost their advantage, and they knew it.
"Buzz off! You already got your freebie," a man said of the slime pocket pussy in the bishop's hand.
"N-No, this isn't…" Bishop Rudo chucked it away and glared. "I don't know what you're planning, but it won't work. When I become mayor of Lograin, I will root out your blasphemous church, and charge you all. Mark my words!"
Arenade came between them. The fury in her eyes forced Rudo and his people to back away.
"You're no priest. You're just a desperate conman under the Outriders' payroll. Get out of here before we make you," she threatened.
"Sister Arenade. Your choice of company is just as suspicious as mine. Pray we do not bring each other down," he snarled.
Arenade held Kanae's hand and squeezed, flashing a condescending smile at the priest. Vastly outnumbered and with no one supporting them, Bishop Rudo booked it out of the plaza in a huff.
As soon as they were gone, Kanae spun Arenade around so that they were facing each other.
"That was so hot. I want to throw you down and fuck you right now," Kanae whispered.
"H-How about you thank me by saving that for when we're in private?" Arenade shuddered and turned red.
They ran out of sex toys to give away by the late afternoon. Bishop Rudo never came back to harass them. People began fizzling out of the plaza, and the few that stayed were waiting for the church doors to open at night.
The sun was quickly setting and magical lamp posts were switching on all across the streets, casting overlapping layers of light on the cobblestone. Kanae raced down the thoroughfare to get to the city watch's barracks. Two guards were posted at the gate entrance.
"Hey, no dawdling. Get moving!" a bearded beastman shouted.
"Relax, mate. A civvy's allowed to visit if they want." The other walked up to Kanae and stuck his tongue out, revealing the tri-dagger symbol.
"I'm here to visit a prisoner. Renya Rown?" Kanae said.
"Visits last ten minutes as soon as you come through the gates. Follow me." He gestured onward.
Kanae entered to the lustful gazes of two dozen guards lounging around, who were playing cards, drinking, and doing anything but guarding. The mole led him downstairs to the dungeons, a series of long corridors made of thick stone walls evenly spaced out with cells that held one or two prisoners each.
At the very end of the corridor was another room, inside of which was a separate cell guarded by two mage-class guards at a table adjacent to it, was Renya's cell. The occupant looked to be living in anything but squalor. Her jail cell was a step down from the luxury of her ship or the Red Harpy, but it was furnished with a bed, a toilet, and a table which was eating a gourmet meal on.
"Ah, my dearest su— friend! I would offer you to join me for dinner, but as you can see that is not possible." Renya wiped her mouth with a napkin and walked up to the bars.
"You're doing well, all things considered." I grinned. "Are you—"
Renya raised a finger to her lips. She threw a look to the guard who led me in.
"Alright, you lot. Warden bought us all ale. Why don't you two get something to fill your bellies, and I'll take watch from here?" he offered.
"Ale, eh? Don't have to tell me twice!"
"Don't get too close to that dark elf cunt. She's got a tongue sharper than her ears."
The two mages exited the room, and the guard nodded to Renya before stepping out.
"You have a plant inside the city watch? I bet you can escape if you really wanted to," Kanae said.
"Unfortunately, that wouldn't be a good look for the daughter of Solasta Rown." Renya shrugged with a smile.
"I'm sorry, Renya… It's my fault that you're in here…"
"Is it?" She shook her head. "Last I recall we made a deal. This is me holding up my end of the bargain. I hope you are holding up your end."
Somehow, Kanae suspected it was more than just business this time. The fact of the matter was, Renya saved him, his friends, and Teana. She had so little to gain, and so much to lose from that. Including her reputation.
"I am! Like you suggested, we opened a church. It's going great. But what about you? I hear they're going to send you to Radevic for trial?" Kanae asked.
"That's right. They are uncovering all my dealings, from Port Kandis to Orturic. Thankfully, none involving Mallory, so he is still clean. Worst that can happen to me is I'm executed, but that's nothing you need to worry about. Focus on getting Mallory into the seat of mayor," Renya reminded him.
"That's all I need to worry about? What about you! Execution is… what if I never see you—"
Renya reached past the bars and pulled Kanae in for a deep kiss. She shoved her tongue down his throat, and he responded by nursing on it and her saliva. The intoxicating taste set him on fire.
"Somewhere along the way I mixed business and pleasure, but I don't regret it. Now get going. You have church service to lead, and I'd like to finish my dinner! Give your daughter a kiss for me, will you? Teana was her name? She has your eyes, that cute little thing." Renya flashed a smirk.
"I'll find a way to free you, because you're not getting away from me that easily." Kanae stroked Renya's inner thigh with the tip of his tail.
They let each other go, and when Kanae opened the door, a giant minotaur man stood on the way. He stepped back to let the beastman, whose magnificent horns scraped against the ceiling, enter the room. His nose was adorned with a bull ring, a coat of brilliant light-brown fur accentuated the thick muscles all over him, and eyes that shone like the sun peered down at Kanae.
Renya glowered, then forced herself to smile. "Ah! Well if it isn't my esteemed brother! Kanae, meet Liradell Rown. Eldest child of Solasta Rown and heir to the Rown Company—"
"Chairman of Rown Company," Liradell corrected her. "Our father passed away three nights ago. I received the letter this morning."
Both of them fell silent, and Kanae wasn't sure when he should move or leave, or return to Renya to comfort her.
"Renya… I'm sorry for your loss," Kanae said, offering his condolences.
"Kanae, I'll see you soon." Renya smiled.
Kanae took that as his cue to leave. He glanced over his shoulder as the door closed. Renya slumped down in her seat and started sobbing.
On the way back to church, Kanae couldn't get Renya out of his mind. She looked so sad. Maybe he should have stayed a little longer.
"Kanae!" Arenade raced down the steps of the church. "Three hells, where have you been? We needed you like half an hour ago!"
"Did something happen inside?" Kanae asked.
"I think it's better if you see it for yourself…"
Kanae walked into the church packed tighter than a can of sardines. There were so many people that the pews were filled from one end to the other. They had to stand on the walkway, in the back, and along the side of the worship hall.
"Collecting tithe! Pay your tithe here!" Edina and her undead minions went around with satchels already stuffed full of gold, soliciting donations from the churchgoers. People were chucking coins into the bags by the handful.
"Has service already started?" someone asked from behind.
Kanae and Arenade turned around to more people coming into the plaza.
"Arenade… We're going to need a bigger church," Kanae said.
"It's them! Make room!"
"Kanae, I'm your biggest fan!"
"Wow! Arenade looks just like Arenade of The Many!"
Now people already inside the church turned into a mosh pit just to get closer to them. It didn't help that many people had brought the sex toys given away earlier today with them.
"This is starting to look more like an adult toys convention than church." Kanae slapped a hand over his face, then jolted when someone rubbed his butt. And since there were so many people, he couldn't find who did it.
"Oh, gods! Help me!" Arenade cried, sticking her hand towards him. "I think someone's trying to stick one of your dildos up my butt!"
Kanae seized Arenade's hand and dragged her to the front of the church, onto the elevated floor that put them just above other people's heads. They went silent as though waiting for him to speak. Some were dressed in religious garb, and others were in adventuring gear like they had just come back from a quest.
"Uhh… Thank you for joining us tonight. How's everyone doing?" Kanae asked.
A chaotic mix of answers assaulted them. Now that he was up here, he wasn't too sure what to say. His eyes wandered to the left wall, where Thedia was cradling Teana in her arms. She was wrapped in a blanket to cover her succubus features, and had both arms outstretched and waving.
"I'm sure a lot of you are here because you recognize me as that slut from Orturic, right? The Streaking Dragonslayer, the one who beat back a demon army, and Lady Dahlia? Then there are those who know me as the one who runs Sexy Slime Goods in Orturic. A lot of you even brought the sex toys here. You might be wondering, why did an adventurer open a church? Why Eminence of Sin? The truth is, I don't know. At first, I wanted to help a friend. I wanted a place where we can accept people from all walks of life, from the less fortunate to the wealthy too."
When Kanae squeezed Arenade's hand, she squeezed back even tighter and smiled. Edina joined them on the stage and took his other hand. She gave a wink, rattling the satchel of gold. At the entrance of the church, Will and Father Morgan, and Talis and his elven groupies, were just now coming in.
Kanae continued. "But some among us would look at others as if they were on a pedestal and think lowly of them. Why? Because we wanted to lay with a busty woman or get dicked by a stud? Or roll dice in hopes of striking it big? Sin and piety go hand in hand. Bishop Rudo tried to silence us today, but all he did was show how out of touch he was with what the great city of Lograin wants. Here, at the Eminence of Sin, I— We shall guide you to a better future. So, who wants to join us and be a part of that?"
The cheers erupted with greater fervor. Dildos and pocket pussies were tossed into the air. Kanae was pretty sure he caught sight of a couple having sex right then and there. An intoxicating and thrilling sensation filled him to the brim from seeing them so eager to be his followers, setting fire to his body that needed to be quenched.
"Look at you." Arenade nudged Kanae in the ribs. "There's an orator in you after all. You know what that means?"
"Let's go back to the adventurer's hall and have sex right now. I want both of you," Kanae said, tightening his grasp on the two of them.
"Eh?" they uttered at once.
"W-Wait a minute, Kanae… that's not what I meant…" Arenade stammered as she gazed into his lustful eyes.
