Kiada, Blood Servant System Reborn

The night was anything but boring, but not in a good way. Gloria was a fitful sleeper, and there wasn't enough room on a bed four times as wide as a normal one for the three of us. I was ready to tie her down by the end of the night, but Lesha slept through it all like a babe.

The morning came too soon, and I cursed the placement of the window as it showed directly into my eyes, making me hold up my hand's hiss. Damn light! We would need to put up curtains, that would not do.

That was when I realized Lesha was already out of bed, and I could hear her in the bathroom. I got out of bed trying to be quiet, I didn't want to wake up Gloria who was sleeping face down, starfished, and head at the end of the bed. She needed more sleep after the marathon she ran in her sleep last night!

I crept into the bathroom and found Lesha soaking in the bathtub. I slipped out of my blue sleeping gown, and Lesha smiled up at me. The look made breathing become a bit harder, but I moved forward, and then got into the other end of the tub, opposite from her. The water was warm and a slight sting of the hot water was traded for the feeling of Lesha's legs between mine.

"You look tired, K. Didn't you get any sleep? Did I snore?" Lesha asked with a cute half-smile.

"No, It wasn't you, it was the wandering marauder. Gloria is a terror in her sleep, that woman needs to be chained down! Not ropes, she would get free; did you see how she was sleeping?"

Lesha almost slipped under the water. She was laughing so hard, and my scowl just made it worse. When she finally got herself under control, she wiped the tears from her eyes and the water she had splashed up off her pretty face. I tried to be mad at her laughs, but she was naked and in the same bath as me, so it was hard to stay angry.

"I will sleep on the other side tonight," Lesha said, grinning at me.

"Tonight? She is going in a box and I am locking it. We have things, remember? We can put the box in Mei's room, see? Everyone wins! We get to know what, and Mei gets her first real sleepover, and Gloria gets to rest in a way where she doesn't run a full marathon while 'sleeping'. See? Perfect plan!"

That just got me splashed and laughed at. I was about to move over to the other side of the tub when the door opened and Gloria walked in like a zombie. She came in and took her underwear off and then the nightgown Lesha had given her completely off, and taking a seat on the toilet. Then she started to pee, very loudly, like it was a crashing waterfall.

I looked at Lesha and she was screwing up her face, trying not to laugh, while sinking under the water. After the torrential downpour stopped, with no less the three false finishes, I cleared my throat. The scream Gloria let out echoed around the bathroom as she fell off the toilet trying to cover herself, but she hit her head on the bathroom paper fixture.

Both of us jumped out of the bathtub and rushed over to Gloria, and she had blood coming from a small cut in her head, but she didn't seem hurt badly. I still felt bad and I wish there was something I could do, and then I heard the words from deep inside of myself, and I spoke them out loud.

"Heal{Laeh}!"

I touched Gloria's head with a glowing white hand and the cut disappeared and her hair grew back as it had never happened. The glow left my hand and Gloria sat up with both of us helping her. She looked at me in open mouth and wide-eyed amazement.

"How can you drink blood, and heal? Isn't that against the rules or something?" Gloria asked with a bewildered expression.

"She can also summon demons and Undead monsters like me! Then she can stop you from dying so she can heal you! K is the best G! You will see!" Gobby said, walking into the room, wiggling his arms, and then going to hop into the bathtub with no concern to Gloria's scream of a surprise to see a walking blood blob.

Luckily we were both there holding her and preventing her from jumping around too much. This one was going to be a handful, just like Mei was when she first came to us. Gloria must have been through a lot, so we would just have to take it slow with her. We all got up after we both explained Gobby and his existence, and then we got dressed.

Mei was waiting for us just outside of her room giving us all strange looks. I walked by and ruffled Mei's hair and she fell in behind me. We all walked down to the main entrance hall of the Guild and the tables were now set two on each side of the room. Gram and Healia were sitting at the same one they always did, so I walked over to see what the goddess had figured out, but before I could say anything, Healia's hand was already going up to stop me.

"You have to go to Dyster and attempt the dungeon there, there is no other way. You have locked the dungeon for you and your party, but other guild members can still enter it, but the amount of experience you will need will take too long. It's because you have already beat this dungeon so it is forcing you to finish, rather than letting you grind until you find an easy boss to defeat," Healia explained between sips of her tea

We had to leave? I just got my new bed and I hadn't even enjoyed it yet!
