The group of four, plus Caria and Melissa and her bees, were leisurely sitting around a table, drinking and talking together. Something that took up a lot of time was that Eisen explained the whole situation with John and the Loan shark, meaning how Eisen got two of the three shards of Kirisho's amulet.

However, only really Evalia was surprised at this. "I never thought you'd be so scary, Eisen!" She exclaimed and looked at Komer and Bree to get them to agree, but they simply smiled wrily while looking at her.

"Well... Eisen can definitely be pretty scary, for sure..." Komer muttered out while Caria and Melissa were furiously nodding, as they were the only ones there that actually witnessed it.

"Huh, really? Couldn't've guessed... Also, how aren't'cha drunk yet, Eisen? You've been drinking the most out of all of us!" Evalia complained loudly, carefully resting her head on the table in front of her while pulling on the strings of her guitar next to her.

Chuckling lowly, Eisen shrugged. "I'm not really sure, I guess it's because my Endurance stat is higher than anyone else's here. You three really just focus on your mental stats, while mine are pretty even, so all my stats are above 100 right now. Beside charisma, of course."

"Coolio doolio..." Evalia yawned before closing her eyes on the table, but Eisen tapped her shoulder to make sure she wouldn't fall asleep.

"Evalia, careful. If you sleep here, you will wake up here. None of us can carry you while you're sleeping."

"Eh? Fine, fine... I won't sleep, I'll just rest my eyes for a bit..."

Eisen sighed loudly and waved over to Gordon. "Hey, can you give us some of that sober-making liquor?"

But surprisingly, the one that interjected was Evalia herself. "No, no! That's no fun, I'm stayin' like this..." The young woman complained, and Eisen simply laughed.

"Fine, then let's at least bring you back to your Inn. Do you remember the way?" He asked and helped Evalia stand up, then looked over to Bree and Komer as well. "You two should come too, you don't look too good yourselves. Do either of you want some of the sober-making liquor?"

But before either of them could even respond, Gordon spoke up. "Actually, I couldn't give 'em any if I wanted to. That stuff just makes ya sober by nullifying what my other drinks do to ya, and if they aren't affected by any special effects, they won't end up sober." Gordon explained, and Eisen sighed lightly.

"I see, in that case, I really just need to bring these three drunks to bed, huh?" He chuckled while slowly leading the three young people out of the tavern with Caria and Melissa following behind together, the small Myconid holding the Queen Bee in her arms.

"Anyway, thanks again, Gordon. I'll come by again soon." Eisen said with a smile while placing the money that he owed Gordon for the evening on the counter, and the dwarf grabbed the coins with a smile. "Take yer time, old man. I'll be 'ere."

With a soft chuckle Eisen then left the building, looking around to make sure everyone was following behind. He already knew what Bree was like when she was drunk, so Eisen had to especially look after her. Whenever she drank, Bree would always end up either incredibly tired, or super energetic. If she was tired she was a bit easier to manage since Eisen only had to make sure she didn't sit down anywhere to sleep, but if she was super energetic she would simply run around basically anywhere and everywhere. 𝐟𝗿ee𝘄𝗲𝗯𝐧o𝘃el.𝐜o𝚖

Luckily, right now she was tired, so Eisen simply kept walking behind her and the rest of the group until they got to their respective Inns. Evalia stayed at an incredibly fancy one, while Bree picked out one that was a bit smaller and cheaper. So Eisen first brought Evalia away and then Komer, Bree and him went to their own Inn, made their way to their room and then went to bed.
