Y/N POV
I've just recently moved into Vale, and I just opened my new bar. As I'm in the middle of setting up my options, I hear the door bell being rung, meaning I have a customer walking in. I admit, I'm not in my most physical shape due to it being night time, but I can somewhat hold my own.
Y/N: W-w-welcome t-to my t-tavern, My Sweet Gluttony. Forgive me for not being more presentable due to this still being my setup phase for the place.
The gentleman walked up to the bar, and while I admit I was scared out of my wits, he was calm.
???: It's alright. What kind of drinks do you have?
Y/N: Ah, yes. Well, there's so many different liquors from all over Remnant, you see. I was lucky enough to get some of it from Menagerie. I admit, the faunas make an amazing ale.
???: I'll take some of it then.
Y/N: Ah, good choice sir.
I grabbed the bottle labeled "Monster Juice," and I poured it into a mug.
Y/N: Forgive me sir, but I don't carry glasses due to the cost, as well as being too fragile, so I hope you're okay with it just being a normal wooden mug.
???: That's quite alright. Besides, the oak wood gives it some additional flavor as well. May I ask for your name, sir?
Y/N: Oh, my name is Y/N. I'm sorry I didn't say so earlier. Pleasure to meet you...?
???: My name is Ozpin. I'm the headmaster of Beacon academy.
Y/N: H-h-headmaster? Oh dear, I hope I didn't leave a bad impression with you.
Ozpin: Not at all, good sir.
Soon, after a few drinks, he notices a golden battle axe mounted on the wall.
Ozpin: What an amazing weapon you have there, sir. May I ask what it is?
Y/N: Oh that? It was my father's weapon many years ago when he was in his prime. He fought in a great war, and gave it to me as his dying wish.
Ozpin: I'm sorry for your loss. If you don't mind me saying, you look young to be running a bar.
Y/N: I get that a lot, and truth be told, I'm only 21 years of age.
Ozpin soon produced a letter of recommendation, and set it on the counter top.
Ozpin: This is a letter for you to come to my school. If you wish to honor your father, and I'm sure you wanna do him proud, you should attend my school. But it's up to you.
After that, he got up and left. As he reached the door, he turned back to me.
Ozpin: And Y/N?
Y/N: Yes sir?
Ozpin: You don't have to hide who you are, you know? It's not every day you meet a sin.
As he said that, he walked out the door, and I watch the door close. I sit at the bar, and stare at the letter. Should I accept it, or leave it be? This is my choice after all, but I'm sure my father would be proud of me either way. He did give me his name and weapon before he passed. As I'm pondering, the sun started to rise in the sky. Oh no, I have to close this place, now. Just before I start to lock up, some goons kicked the door down, and I'm knocked out unconscious.
Goon leader POV
I heard about this place being new, and I wanted to see what kind of booze they had.
Leader: Alright boys, drinks are on the house.
The gang charges in, and they start getting their drink on big time.
Timeskip brought to you by a chibi lion roaring
As my men and I are just getting absolutely smashed, I notice the battle axe on the wall.
Leader: Hmmm, what an extraordinary battle axe you have here. I think I'll just take it for myself.
I try to take it, but it drops to the ground.
Leader: Ugh, it's heavy. What is this thing? For a two handed weapon, it's design is extremely flawed. The hilt is too short.
???: It's not flawed, it's just a one-handed axe.
Suddenly, the axe is pulled from my hands, and the barkeep is standing to my left.
???: Sacred treasure Rhita. A battle axe adored by the sun, and named after a maiden. A cretin like you who casts himself in crime and gluttonous behavior is unworthy of touching it.
At this point, the room starts to hear up, and his clothes start to rip as his muscles become more prominent.
???: It's a shame... you've come all this way to a remote tavern only to forfeit your pathetic lives.
Goon: Hahahaha, who is this guy?
Leader: I don't know, and I don't care.
???: I will quell your lackey's curiosity. I'm the one who stands at the pinnacle of all races. I'm one of the seven deadly sins, the sin of pride. And my name...
