Chapter 190: Party continues
(Ryoto's pov)
The alcohol arrived, and it seems like Shunsui-senpai ordered enough for everyone to enjoy. I was never a drinker even as Jacob. I could probably count the times I drank alcohol with one hand. I was against it for a few reasons. Mainly because I already had many problems and didn't want to add a new one, but since I'm Ryoto, I don't need to feel much reserve against it anymore, and I've never drunk sake before. It could be an interesting experience.
That's if I can get drunk, of course. My metabolism is a lot stronger than ordinary people. I would need to drink a lot more to get drunk. If I still had my poisonous blood, I wouldn't get drunk no matter what, though. I don't know if it's a good thing or not.
Ryoto: "Well then, cheers!"
Everyone: "CHEERS!!!"
Everyone followed my suit and downed their drinks. Drinking it made my body feel a bit warmer, but nothing much.
Shunsui: "Whew, is this really your first time drinking? Most of the people would react like the girl next to you."
Shunsui-senpai seemed surprised at how early I downed the drink, and I looked at Rin, who had trouble emptying her glass. It appears that she isn't the biggest fan of this particular flavor of sake.
Ryoto: "Shunsui-senpai, do we have any sweet-tasting sake?"
Shunsui: "Well, of course, we have it. I just enjoy seeing young people have a taste of alcohol for the first time~."
He immediately ordered sake more fitting for the first-timers while I had my second cup.
Yep, I still don't feel any changes.
Shunsui: "But it looks like you can handle the liquor. Want to have a small competition?"
Jushiro: "Kyoraku, stop encouraging young people in this behavior. *Cough* *Cough*."
He coughed out some blood, but it didn't seem to bother him. He looks used to it.
Rin: "Excuse me, are you alright?"
Rin was concerned because of the blood that Jushiro-senpai coughed out.
Jushiro smiled at her display of kindness as most of the people in our class didn't want to interact with the Captains as they didn't want to show any disrespect and get into trouble, but Rin didn't care about any of it. Me being friendly with him also helped.
Jushiro: "You don't need to worry. I'm already used to it."
He answered with a gentle smile.
As of now, I can't do anything significant with his sickness, but at least I could ease his symptoms a bit, so why not treat my senpai with something nice?
I took out one of many well-hidden lollipops and used my power to give this sweet healing property. Since I don't know anything about Jushiro-senpai sickness as I would need to study it thoroughly. Maybe in the future.
Ryoto: "Jushiro-senpai, here have a treat."
I handed him a lollipop, and he accepted it with a smile. He is very nice and kind to everyone. I'll help him if I can.
Jushiro: "Oh, is it one of those famous lollipops? It's challenging to get a hand on one because they are so popular."
Ryoto: "Kisuke and I were the ones who created that whole business, so we have an unlimited amount of lollipops. If you want any, just ask. As my senpai, you have special privileges."
Shunsui: "How about me? Do I also have these privileges~?"
Ryoto: "Maybe if you win in the drinking contest."
Shunsui smiled at my comment.
Shunsui: "Now you're talking!"
We started drinking cup after cup, and it seemed like we weren't stopping anytime soon. Our contest gathered an audience. I gave a slight nod to Kisuke, who immediately understood what I meant and started making bets.
Kisuke didn't drink too much, and his mind was working as well as always. I mean, why wouldn't I try to earn money from others if I could? It has also been some time since I swind- Ahem! I mean, I made a bet with someone.
At this point, both of us drank a lot more than it should be humanly possible. I was beginning to feel pretty tipsy, but my mind was still clear... I think.
What I was surprised about was that Shunsui-senpai was keeping up with me. He was about in the same state as me, which was strange in itself.
Shunsui: "Ryoto-kun, you sure are a monster~. I don't even remember when was the last time someone could keep up with me~ Hehehe~. Jushiro! Isn't he a great kid?"
Never mind, he was clearly drunk.
At that moment someone entered a restaurant. She seemed familiar, so she is probably someone from the story. Her hair was black and keeps it in two braided pigtails. She was wearing red glasses. She also wore an armband, meaning she was a lieutenant.
She didn't say anything and just hit Shunsui-senpai in the head, making him unconscious. She then turned to everyone and bowed to us.
Lisa: "I apologize to everyone, but my Captain has some documents to control."
It looks like Shunsui-senpai avoided his work and came here without finishing his work first, but I am apparently drunker than I realized since I got angry at the whole situation.
Ryoto: "Hey! We are not finished here. I was about to win!"
Yoruichi: "Yeah, tell her, Ryoto!"
Yoruichi also drank quite a bit, and Rin wasn't any different, but she was quiet with her glass near her mouth.
The lieutenant that was dragging Shunsui-senpai away was shocked by my outburst.
Lisa: "Excuse me?"
(E/D: I started hearing the *noises* Lisa from Genshin Impact makes when she is climbing.)
Ryoto: "Listen here, lady. I was having a friendly, little competition with Shunsui-senpai here. I don't care if you are his lieutenant or even his mother. You can't take him away before we settle who's the winner!"
Lisa: "But-"
Ryoto: "No buts! You drop him down, and I'm going to finish this match. Understood?"
Lisa: "But-"
I didn't say anything, just stared at her with some of my Reiatsu leaking out subconsciously.
She then dropped Shunsui-senpai, and by the looks of it, it was painful, but I didn't notice it at the moment, so I took another cup of sake and looked at the unconscious Shunsui-senpai.
He didn't take a shot, so that means I won. I wobbly walked up to him and put my foot on his body. I raised my fist in victory.
Ryoto: "I won!!!"
The cheers and cries erupted. Cheers were from those that won the bet and cries from these that lost.
After that moment, I don't remember what happened.
(E/D: You got dragged into *****'s sex dungeon.)
