Tales From The Church of St. Morrigan: The Initiation

[DSX93]

Emilia was certain that Yuto's affection for Mary's ass wasn't an act at all, and seeing his reaction when she first spoke to him said a lot about how much power that woman really had. It was looking like the guy was heading off into subspace. She could only imagine the effect that Gloria had on him.

She chuckled and nodded her understanding of potential difficulties with lines. "That's a part of why Eveline and I write the scripts to be so open to ad-libbing. I'm not sure even I'd remember any scripted lines when things get intense."

"And that's why Gloria recommended that you just play a fictionalized version of yourself." Mary said to Yuto, laughing in good nature.

"You're doing well so far. The pet play angle was a nice touch."

"Yeah, we carried that over to the big screen." Mary explained, giving Yuto's head another tender stroking as Emilia stepped forward to summon the elevator. It was then that he mentioned the other woman.

"Oh, it's fine. Debra was absolutely down for that." Emilia chuckled as she recalled the conversation they had about their likes and dislikes, and limits, hard and soft. "I'm pretty sure I could've done worse, actually. That girl's an absolute degenerate." She had a bright, approving smile on her face.

Debra's cute too. Too bad she's already seeing someone.

Alright, back up they go. During the wait, Emilia would ask, "On the topic of being down for things, was there anything you wanted us to try to work into the action in the next scene? Aside from our asses, of course." These days, that was a given.

[Lico]

Yuto blushed a little from Mary's laugh and her caressing his head. It's as if their relationship wasn't any different on and off the screen. She did leave quite an impact on him after their first meeting in The Rapture. Gloria sure knew how to pick her circle.

"Ah, okay then..." he looked a little relieved knowing that the other girl was more than fine doing what she did.

As they rode the elevator which took them upstairs, Emilia asked him wheteher he had any ideas to mix into the next scene. Yuto gave it a thought about it briefly, glancing at both her and Mary before he spoke rather quietly.

"Well..."

What was said remained a knowledge only they knew.

[DSX93]

Yes. Yes, yes, yes. This is going to be a fun project.

"I knew you were the guy to cast for this role, Yuto."

Back to the sanctuary the three went. But before they entered, they got back into character. That is, Magdalena in front, Yuto right behind her on hands in knees, almost in her ass again, and Claudia hanging just a little bit behind to make sure that he doesn't try anything funny.

Action.

When the three returned, Sister Mariana was nowhere in sight, leaving just them and Orlya. And the naked blonde? Well, after she tried to betray church secrets, she stopped being a person. At least in Claudia's eyes.

Speaking of eyes and people...

"You keep your head down, Dog. You are in the presence of greatness, and your unworthy eyes will not gaze upon Her without Her express permission."

Her voice was low, but no less harsh. Magdalena would fail to chime in here, offering no comfort this time. After walking up to a few paces below the stairs, they would stop.

"You finally return. I was beginning to think that I would have to send escorts."

"No, my lord." Magdalena would bow her head. "I took a moment to demonstrate to Claudia the power she could hold over our Cattle. Circumstances created what I believed to be a teachable moment. Please forgive me, my lord."

"That explains the intake of energy I felt a moment ago. And considering his presence before me, I take it that I would be right to expect that more could be produced?"

"Yes, my lord. The sisters have tested his constitution during his imprisonment, and found him to be a bountiful source."

"We shall test his constitution once more. As you know, Novitiate, I deal in both pleasure and pain. The energies produced therein sustain my being and fuel my power. The trials that determine one's ascension to Sisterhood are many: Some may test resolve. Others leadership capabilities, among other factors. You have proven proficient in many of these characteristics, Claudia."

The compliment had the raven-haired beauty standing taller now. "Thank you, my lord. I live to serve, and I aim to serve with distinction. Whatever trials you demand of me, I will do my utmost to pass."

"That is exactly what I wanted to hear. It is my hope that you don't fail your trial; I sense that you would be a great asset once allowed into the inner circle. Your trial, Claudia, will be to produce the greatest amount of energies from both pain and pleasure that you are able to before the prisoner falls insensate."

That's it? That's her task? Claudia wanted to laugh: It was so simple! But she dared not even snicker, lest it be taken as an insult. But that this was her trial had filled her with confidence. More than she already had before.

"I will not fail, my lord."

Once the Mother had stepped off to the side, Orlya would declare, "You may begin."

Claudia turned to Yuto, who had been prostrated for all this time, and began to circle him, her eyes once again drinking in how his clothes contoured his frame. "Oh, what shall I do with you, Puppy? So many things I want to do with you, but one session will not be enough to go through them all, even with your reported staying power. So I must choose wisely." She wanted her thoughts to get into his head, so she intentionally gave voice to them.

Eventually, she would crouch down in front of him, grab a fistful of his hair and give it a good yank, forcing him to look up into a pretty face that had no warmth to offer him, even though it was her task to also offer him pleasure. But she would have something for him.

"I'm sure that some of the women in our order were quite kind to you. It's already been established that you're rather fond of Mother Magdalena. Quite understandable, that. And I'm also sure that, despite that, there is still a part of you that would like to leave this place. Isn't there?"

[Lico]

Back to the characters they went, although it made a little difference for Yuto.

He crawled behind Mother Magdalena, eyes fixated on her swaying hips and ass again, until Claudia's voice snapped him out of it. He whimpered and kept his head down as he's told.

It's quite a torture in it's own way, he had to admit. Having seen Gloria in her outfit before they started made it all too tempting for him to sneak a glance, but he knew better than to screw up this filming.

Their dialogues weren't helping calming down his curiosity, but Yuto kept himself prostrated until he was adressed to by Claudia. His gaze towards her was submissive, but there was some truth in what she said.

"A...a little maybe..." he admitted.

It's true that he was confined here against his will, but those couple of days had turned his mind docile that he wanted to stay here. Still, freedom also sounded appealing to his adventurer soul, or whatever left of it.

[DSX93]

Claudia was a touch disappointed in Yuto's answer. Again, the sisters had affected him too well. She needed a way to make this interesting. Something that will get him emotionally involved.

Her mind started throwing something together. After a few moments' formation, she had a solid idea. It was risky, but the stories that she's been told of his imprisonment had her confident that it was a gamble that she stood a strong chance of winning. The very best kind to wager.

"And I imagine that you're not terribly fond of me."

Claudia rose to her regular height, lifting a foot to his head and pushing down, ensuring his eyes would not even accidentally gaze upon the Paragon before turning her attention towards her for a moment.

"I propose a wager: That Yuto be allowed ten minutes during which time he be allowed to combat me. If he can either overcome or slip around me, and he makes it to that door, that he be allowed a chance to escape."

Unbeknownst to Yuto, she had her fingers crossed behind her back. The proposal was merely for the benefit of his ears and that vindictive part of him that Claudia was sure was there.

"If I allow either outcome, I will surrender my status as a member of the order. And whether he is recaptured or not, you may do with me as you wish. Toss me to the darkest reaches of the dungeon, execute me...I will even accept being made into Cattle."

Orlya looked on with an intrigued grin. Mother Magdalena, however, had a look of worry about her. Not written all over her face, but it was noticeable.

It was far too soon to be making such potentially costly gambles, even if she had no intention of paying up in the event she loses. But Claudia thought nothing of the risk. Such was the arrogance of youth.

She would have denied her this immediately, simply out of principle, but with Orlya present, that wasn't up to her.

"I accept your terms." Orlya wouldn't bother to ask for Magdalena's opinion. No need for it in such a harmless situation, though her concern was noted, with more written in her head as the Mother moved to stand in the path towards the door, arms crossed like a bouncer. In any case, Orlya wasn't a Paragon of Honesty. "What is the Cattle's name again?"

"Yu-"

"Nevermind. It doesn't matter."

Claudia usually didn't like it when people interrupted her, but that tickled her. "No, it doesn't." She grinded her heel into his head. Enough to hurt, but it wouldn't do any real damage. After a few seconds, she lifted her foot from him. This got a smile from Orlya. She liked this one.

"Cattle! You may rise. And consider yourself fortunate: None in your position have ever had such an opportunity presented to them. It's no guarantee, but a chance to return to your former life is quite the tempting offer, is it not?"

Claudia furrowed her brow in confusion. Did that question even need asking?

[Lico]

Yuto didn't really respond to what Claudia said about him not too fond of her. To start with, he barely interacted with her up to this point, but she did seem like the meaner type compared to others. The kind of women that he normally wouldn't get along with too well. The novitiate stepping on his head further cemented that impression, but it's not like he really disliked how she's treating him so far.

As he heard the proposal Claudia brought up, the boy lifted an eyebrow. He wasn't sure of her intention. Perhaps she wanted to display her prowess to impress her higher ups. Yuto himself wasn't exactly a high ranked adventurer himself, but given that Claudia's build was similar to his own, it seemed like she could be taking a risk. It'd make more sense if this kind of wager was made by someone like Mother Magdalena.

He grunted quietly as she put more pressure on his head, although not to the point it'd hurt. Eventually, Claudia backed away from him, and Orlya told him to rise. Yuto timidly shifted onto his knees. He wasn't sure if he'd be allowed to be on his feet yet, or to look at the deity of this church, for that matter, so he kept his head down for the time being. The question itself didn't met an immediate reply as he opened his mouth, but seemed to be stumbling for words.

"U-uh... y-yes... quite tempting..." he gave a meek nod, but clearly his heart wasn't all there.

As a matter of fact, during one of his sessions with Mother Magdalena, she was asking a similar question, whether he'd rather return to his adventurer life rather than being the nuns' puppy. Said question was asked while she's also pampering and stroking him, which made his answer back then more straightforward, even sealed with his essence.

[DSX93]

"Such conviction." For once, Claudia's tone towards him wasn't mocking or hostile, as she took another moment to build upon her scheme. It didn't take her much longer.

"I will make it my objective, then, to convince you to remain here with us. So the odds have slid even further into your favor...Puppy." The affection remained alien on her tongue, sounding more like it was one or two steps away from being a slur. "You now have three means to be granted a shot at freedom, with one of them being simply to refrain from stating that you wish to remain here."

Unless...

Claudia set one of her leather boots forward, far enough that her foot would be right in Yuto's vision in his prostrated position. "Or shall we get you settled into a new life here and now? Five seconds. You have five seconds to lick this boot, like the dog you are."

[Lico]

The way Claudia calling him "puppy" was different compared to how Mother Magdalena or the other nuns did, but it still made Yuto twitched a little. Claudia then added another term for their little contest, before offering her boot for him to lick. He froze for a moment, a part of him wanting to lean forward and lick it, and yet there's still hesitation somewhere on the back of his mind to do so. In the end, five seconds was just not nearly enough time for the conflicted adventurer to make his decision, as he only managed to inch closer to the boot and slightly parted his lips, but not further than that.

[DSX93]

Claudia observed his hesitation with a dark, perhaps even evil grin. Six. Seven. Eight. He wasn't completely broken in. Excellent.

"So be it."

And so she reached down a took a handful of the maggot's hair and circled around him, forcing him to follow. It was inevitable, given that they were going to be locked in combat -- a goal that was quite likely to be failed within the next few moments, even -- but she would keep him in positions that would keep his eyes from taking in the sight of Orlya for as long as she could. She'd bring him around to a one-eighty from where he was facing before, then..."On your feet!"

The two were about the same size, maybe with Yuto edging her out by just a little. But one wouldn't know it with the preternatural ease she lifted him with, making use of only the one arm she'd reached down to grab him with. Up and into a headlock, squeezing him right up against the side of her leather-clad buxom.

[Lico]

Yuto groaned when Claudia took a handful of his hair and dragged him around a bit. She was forcing him to look only at her, and before he knew it she pulled him up as if he weighed nothing. There's a surprised look on his face, but he recalled a rumor about humans who received the blessing of a superior being - be it divine or demonic - so that they had the strength that surpassed logic. This church he was supposed to investigate said to be worshipping an evil goddess, which might explain where Claudia got her power from.

But he didn't have the time to ponder about that further, as she already had him in a headlock, pressing his face against the side of her chest. Yuto recalled in his previous exchange with Claudia, his eyes were drawn to her tits when she served him his wine, which made him wondered for a moment how they'd feel. And now, he got that curiosity of him fulfilled, at least partially as her orbs were still covered by her outfit.

"Nnghh...!" the boy grunted and tried to pry away her hand, squirming in an attempt to create an opening for him to slip away from her clutch.

Although he had to admit that it kinda felt nice, he still had that adventurer instinct to fight back whenever he's put in a position of discomfort. Mother Magdalena and some of the other sisters had diluted that survival sense, but the way Claudia had been treating him probably drew a stronger reaction from what's left of his defiant side.
