87 – The essence of wine

“… ….”

Knock!

The sound of dry spittle echoed quietly.

Who exactly did it belong to?

Three people were sitting in the seat, but at least it wasn’t a sound made by a dark-haired girl holding a glass.

That would be the case too.

“It’s been a while, having a drink like this.”

Because she, Ashera, had only her bright smile on her face.

It was a bright expression that could not be seen at all.

Compared to him, the other girl sitting next to her didn’t look very good.

‘…… What should I do?’

The girl, Orca, made her red eyes shake a lot.

What comes into sight is one wine.

A deep red color.

It was such a deep red wine that no matter how normal you look at it.

That’s why her expression was distorted.

No matter how I tried to think in a positive way, I couldn’t come up with a good guess.

‘…… Me, what are you going to do by feeding me something like that?’

Knock!

Once again, she swallowed her dry saliva.

A cold sweat was running down his white cheeks before he knew it.

As if she was very nervous, but at the same time, it was revealed from her expression that she wanted to get out of this place.

How did you interpret that expression or the act of swallowing dry saliva?

“Ah, Lady Orca. Isn’t that a good-looking wine?”

Ashera said that with her fresh smile.

“…… Yes?”

Naturally, Orca eventually failed to manage her expression.

“… ….”

“… ….”

A moment of silence.

From noble mtl dot com

It was Orca who acted first.

“I, I, suddenly thought of something… …. May I go?”

While spitting that out, she quietly tried to get up from her seat.

“Where are you going to run away?”

“…… To?”

Charleuk!

“Eh?!”

Due to her chains flying with her metallic sound, Orca had to restrain her entire body.

In an instant, she activated the binding magic without even chanting.

Opening her eyes wide, Orca looked at Ashera with her fearful gaze.

Nevertheless, Ashera was just calm.

“hahahaha, since you said you want to eat like that, I’ll give the first glass to the young lady. Are you okay, disciple?”

Asherah shrugged her shoulders and said that, and White, who had been calm until now, nodded her head with a light smile.

“Of course. Orca wants to drink like that, so I think it would be nice to give you the honor of the first cup, Master.”

It was truly a perfect match between the masters and the masters.

“…… Hey!”

Of course, Orca’s bloody eyes immediately flew in, but how could that work for White?

“The moon is such a beautiful night.”

Consistently ignoring it calmly, White looked up at the sky with a vague expression.

“This…… ! Really!”

And, of course, White’s attitude couldn’t have looked good, so he tried to open her mouth while changing the Orca Guy far and wide.

“Come on, Lady Orca. Here, take a drink.”

“…… !”

Ashera held out a goblet containing a dark red liquid, as if he had followed it before he knew it.

How can you deny that?

No, exactly how can I handle the aftermath?

“Uh, uh… ….”

Swallowing her dry saliva again, Orca carefully examined Ashera’s eyes.

The only thing that caught her eyes was her normal smile.

But Orca knew.

No, I could tell.

I know that at this moment, if I reject this cup, a great wrath will come upon me.

It was an intuition that was almost instinctive, but fortunately it was infinitely closer to the correct answer.

“…… Thank you. Ah, ahahahaha.”

Effortlessly swallowing back the tears that were about to spill out, Orca accepted the cup with a distorted smile.

The figure of an orca was reflected on the red liquid.

A very distorted expression, and the way he tried to smile at the same time was very funny.

‘How did it end up like this… ….’

Inside, she recalls the time when she herself was treated like this.

‘…… Yeah, it’s all because of him.’

He glared at White, who must have been the cause.

“…… Oh, I don’t know.”

At the same time as she spat out, Orca gulped down her glass at once.

“—Ah.”

And that was it.

If you ask what the end is, that is.

“…… Uh huh.”

It would be quite correct to say that her mind is at the end of its normal judgmental state.

“Oh, white… ….”

“…… ?”

“Huh… ….”

Letting out a strange moan, Orca looked at White with a disheveled expression and blank eyes.

…… It was the moment when her life, especially the dark history that would be counted on one hand, was about to be born.

*****

“Ah, Ashera-sama!”

“Yes, Lady Ashera is here.”

“Look at that guy! To see me treated so badly and not show any remorse!”

“I see. Even though he is my disciple, it is a little disrespectful.”

“Isn’t it?!”

“… ….”

White watches a series of skits while sipping a glass.

What the hell was the identity of the alcohol Ashera had brought, and at Orca’s state that the taste had gone after just one drink, White pressed his throbbing temple once.

And even during that time, Orca’s drunkenness continued.

“Tell me something too…… !”

“…… ?”

While muttering something while being half-embraced by Ashera, White frowned at the sight of the orca suddenly shooting an arrow at him.

What can you say?

What do you mean?

“Do you mean to tell me about your state, where you are almost halfway sane?”

“…… No, something like that!”

Responding violently to White’s words, Orca inflated his cheeks.

She threw her fist at White, building up her tear-stained face.

Puck!

“… ….”

However, in a state where you can’t even make a normal and rational judgment, where can you put your strength into your fist?

“Ha.”

White laughed at the attack, which was so light that he wondered if he had hit it with a cotton bat.

And maybe she didn’t like that smile?

“Oh, you…… !”

Raising her eyes, the orca began swinging her fists in her extension.

Tuk, tuk, tuk!

“Are you giving me a massage? It’s not even unique.”

“No, no…… !”

“Or what.”

“Noaaa!”

“… ….”

With her condition gone so bad that she can’t even talk, she couldn’t help but feel like she couldn’t speak for her anymore.

White made up her mind that from now on, she should continue to ignore it.

And sip a glass in the same way.

His eyebrows furrowed slightly.

‘…… Certainly, it’s poisonous.’

However, if I had to express it, should I say that the taste is understandable despite its strongness?

It’s a feeling that shoots from the inside, but it’s not such a bad feeling.

At the sensation of flames rising from the inside beyond his neck, White drew a calm smile.

I didn’t like alcohol.

In the first place, before returning, after going through Ashera’s rampage, I felt like I would never be able to maintain a normal state, so there was a time when I depended on alcohol.

Moreover, when it comes to this rare and good wine, there was no reason to reject it.

“…… Where the hell did you get this wine from? Master.”

Tanking the glass again, White asked Ashera.

Very calmly, without much thought.

“Well, when was it? It was probably a national treasure of a kingdom that is now gone.”

“…… Yes?”

However, the answer that came back was not so light.

White’s eyelashes began to tremble once.

…… A kingdom now lost.

That national treasure.

“… ….”

White’s pupils slowly shake as he sees the remaining wine.

I don’t know why, but he naturally tried to take his hand off the glass.

“Ah, it doesn’t matter, just eat it. Is there something wrong?”

Tak!

By Ashera’s outstretched hand, the attempt ended in nothing.

As if to force-feed her halfway, meeting her pressuring gaze, White squeezed her eyes.

‘…… Is it okay to eat this?’

Inwardly, I start thinking seriously.

Where is the most recently destroyed kingdom?

…… Maybe that was the Rosen Kingdom about 70 years ago.

I know that the royal family collapsed due to a civil war…….

“… ….”

White’s disquieting gaze turns to Ashera, who sips her alcohol without showing any sign of her drunkenness.

‘No, what. I knew.’

…… Yeah, i knew it

It feels like her age and the years she has lived are approaching.

I thought about posting a story about him for a while.

“…… Disciple, what were you thinking right now?”

Her words mixed with Ashera’s pressure as she momentarily turned her head and asked.

“Nothing. hahahaha.”

White couldn’t help but reply with a laugh.
