Chapter 63 Feast ②

Part 2

Liz has already emptied seven mugs.

As I thought her pace was too fast, probably because it has been a while since her last tavern. Liz is also a human and if she drinks so much, she will be a little drunk.

Sytry-chan is certainly called “The Worst of the Worst” but she wouldn’t put something in her sister’s drink. She doesn’t have a motive.

I appease Liz who was about to jump on her.

“Calm, calm, Liz. Sytry didn’t do anything. I am sure you just drank too much.”

“Eh!? Cry-chan, are you seriously saying that? You aren’t going to be my ally?”

Liz is unusually shocked.

Even if you say that… If I leave you girls, you will start a fight.

It is pitiful for Sytry, if you accuse her just because of your instinct.

“I am serious. Extra serious. I am not anyone’s ally or something like that. It has touched my lips a little, but you want to drink my tea?”

“… I will drink it!”

When she was depressed, Liz-chan took the mug of tea I presented with both hands and drink it.

It is good to drink alcohol, but you should consider you pace a little more.

If Liz, a High-Level Hunters, gets drunk and rampages, even if we are in a tavern exclusive for Hunter, there isn’t a lot of people who can stop you. If it is poorly handled, you will be banned. It has already happened. That was troublesome.

At this time, when Liz was finally showing sign of calming down, Sytry places two mugs of Golden Ale.

Clear golden liquid shine in the mug. Apparently additional order came over.

New plate and new drink are carried over when they took the empties one. It is the fault of Liz who said to order for ten for starter. You reap what you sow.

“Onee-chan, look, the order from earlier came. It has been a while so, do you want to do a drinking contest. The bet is today’s drinking bill…”

“Aaaaah? You are going to put something in again, right!? Don’t get too full of yourself! Even if Cry-chan forgives it, I won’t forgive you!”

Liz sounds like a drunken thug.

However, Liz haven’t even started, and she is already like this, for Sytry to challenge a drunken Liz to a drinking contest, it is as expected of Sytry.

Moreover, she is trying to bet her drinking bill on her own. I already said that the drinks were on me…

I secretly try to sneak a peek on my wallet, I put my hand in my pocket… And I realized that I forgot my wallet in my room.

“……”

Liz grabs Sytry’s collar and lift her while staggering. Her eyes were completely still.

However, even after all this Sytry doesn’t stop smiling.

“In the first place, you have helped creating that Golem, right!? It has obviously been built to counter us!”

“Cry-san, please help me. Onee-chan is saying thing without any evidence…”

“I will tell you, but it was just a though damn small fish! He only has toughness! Even Cry-chan was dumbstruck!”

“… It was just the brain which was garbage. If I had used it, Onee-chan will have been beaten to a pulp in one second. As an engineer, he was top-class but as a warrior, he wasn’t even third-class…”

“Did you hear!? Cry-chan, you hear her right!? Everything was Sit’s fault! I am even sure that Akasha was just a victim from Syt!”

This is unusual… She got so drunk with only seven mugs.

Liz lets go of Sytry and jumps here. I catch her and pat her head, *yoshi yoshi*.

But to say that the Tower of Akasha was in truth the victim of Sytry. It is an absurd story.

“It is too farfetched. Sytry has caught all the guys I let go. It is thanks to Sytry that the case was resolved.”

“Cry-chan!? You know everything, right!? Why are you taking Sit’s side?”

No, I am not really taking sides…

It is not like I am Sytry’s ally, it is just Liz’s word are so close to being accusatory and Sytry is close to explode.

Well, Liz is not sincerely saying that it was Sytry’s works.

Sytry’s eyebrows are down and she looks at me with an enrapture expression. Sure, I love Liz, but I won’t make a mistake in my judgment based on my likes and dislikes.

Because I am still a Level 8. Impartiality is one of my few virtues.

Sytry-chan pushes one of her mugs in front of Liz.

.

“… Onee-chan. Come on, let’s do a drinking contest. It is okay, even if Onee-chan gets drunk, I will properly put you to sleep and look after you. If you feel sick, it is fine if you turn tail and run away… It is bothering Cry-san, so if you are feeling so bad you should lie down on the side over there. Hey, Ti-chan. You will look after Onee-chan, right?”

“I haven’t seen anything. I haven’t heard anything…”

Tino becomes completely useless in a quarrel between those sisters.

She is sandwiched between her Teacher and her natural enemy.

To that outright provocation, Liz’s eyes shines brightly. She stood up while staggering, and strongly slap both of her cheeks with her hand. Probably to regain her focus.

She grabs the mug in front of her eyes and Liz yells.

“Aaaaah!? Fine, as you wish then, Sit! When you are only my little sister, don’t think you can win against me just because you brought poison!”

“…… As expected of Onee-chan, but I didn’t brought poison… What a wonderful spirit when you are about to collapse. Please be easy on me…”

Sytry makes a sneaky smile and in the same way takes the huge mug in front of her.

It is just a drinking contest, but the atmosphere around them was like a duel. Tino is anxiously looking at Liz.

However, Liz-chan, do you still think that Sytry has poisoned your mug?

And then, I suddenly come up with a nice idea. I am not proud of it but I am a little confident as a fight arbitrator.

I snap my finger and tell both of them who were about to start their drinking contest.

“Before you start your drinking contest, exchange your mug. Sytry must feel bad to receive those strange suspicion, but with that Liz should be convinced, right?”

“……Eh?”

This is one way to bring everyone happy. Sytry knows about Liz’s personality, this is a compromise she wouldn’t feel bad about.

I have confidence in my plan, but for some reason Sytry’s expression is frozen.

Liz grabs the mug from Sytry’s frozen hand and push down the one she has until now.

She raises the mug she grabbed in the air, empties it and wipes her mouth. Liz smiles as if she has won.

“Puh, in your faceeeeeee! Did you think Cry-chan will be on your side? There is no way! You should have stopped a while ago; this is happening to you because you are making those strange plans! If it is a new drug that I can’t tolerate then even Syt wouldn’t come out unscathed! Come on, I drank it. You drink it too! Come on, come on, come ooooon!!”

Pressed by Liz, Sytry’s eyes turn black and white. Her hands slowly stretch over her potion bag on her waist, but Liz saw that and smugly stops her.

I put the freshly brought cold tea, enjoy it and overlook the inside of the bar.

Every table is as lively as our table. The Feast of Heroes. When I am here, I also feel I am part of it.

When I start to feel sentimental, I switch back my sight Liz, Liz and Sytry were still arguing.

There are many differences in their eyes, their height, their chest size and many other places but when you look at them side by side, you can see that they are sisters.

“You girls are really getting along. Ah, should I order some ice cream… Tino do you also want some?”

“Master………. I would like some.”

Sytry: ………… Eh?

Liz: I drank it. You drink it to, come on, come on, come onnnn.

Cry: Ah, should I order some ice cream… Tino do you also want some?

Tino: Master………. I would like some.

Tino shrinks her body as if she were withered and move her seat back as if she is trying to get away from them.

However, even though earlier Sytry looks like she still had room to drink. How has the situation reversed now?

TL notes:

Thank you for reading the second part.

So Sytry really put something in Liz’s drink and as usual Cry is ignorant of everything XD

As she did that without batting an eye that mean she really help the Members of Cry party to build up resistance to poison by feeding the poison little by little. They are crazy. XD

And GJ for Cry to suggest switching the cup but I would have though that Sytry would have already though of that and put the poison in her own mug but looks like she did not.

Tchao à plus!

Yoshi: Sound Japanese people say when they pat someone.

Puh: A onomatopoeia for a mocking laugh like puhpuh.
