Seojun read the description with a mix of apprehension and determination. He realized they would likely face Nerathiel again in the future. "So, we\'ll be fighting him again?"

[Don\'t worry, Host. Nerathiel will acknowledge you and accept his defeat. He will visit you later.]

Seojun sighed in relief. He turned his attention to the rewards.

The title and skill were impressive, and the coins would be useful someday. The Fragment of Divinity intrigued him, promising further opportunities for growth and power.

Seojun nodded and stood up, feeling a mix of determination and fatigue. "I should get out of here since I\'ll be leaving this area tomorrow."

[Please stay for a while, Host. Let me handle the preparations, especially since you\'re their Clan Lord.]

Seojun raised an eyebrow, curious. "Will it take time?"

[Don\'t worry, Host. I\'ll handle this quickly. It will not take a week.]

Satisfied with the response, Seojun nodded and made his way outside. The celebration was in full swing, with demons and clan lords mingling and enjoying the festivities. Music and laughter filled the air, and the atmosphere was vibrant and lively.

As he walked through the crowd, Malara approached him with a goblet filled with a shimmering, fruit-colored liquid.

"Lord Seojun," Malara said, offering him the drink. "Try this. It\'s a special treat for the occasion."

Seojun took the goblet and looked at the liquid with curiosity. "What is this?"

[It\'s similar to wine or liquor from Earth, Host.] The system\'s voice responded.

He turned to Malara. "Where did this come from? It smells intriguing."

Malara smiled. "It\'s Zarath. It\'s made from a rare fruit called Zar, known for its unique taste. This particular drinks is rare and only God Nerathiel allowed to drink. He gifted this to you My lord."

Seojun\'s eyes widened in surprise. "Nerathiel came?"

"Yes, my lord," Malara confirmed. "He gave it as a gift, He said that he will be back tomorrow."

Seojun absorbed this information, realizing that Nerathiel\'s gift was part of his acknowledgment. He took a sip of the Zarath, and the sweet, tangy flavor spread across his tongue. It was smooth and pleasant, far better than he expected.

"This is really good," Seojun said, nodding appreciatively.

Malara\'s smile widened. "I\'m glad you like it. It\'s rare and special, My lord."

As Seojun continued to enjoy the wine, the effects began to make him feel more relaxed and jovial. He embraced the celebratory atmosphere, savoring the rare opportunity to let loose and have fun amidst the festivities.

Before long, the effects of the wine took hold. Seojun felt a warm, pleasant buzz spread through him. The wine was stronger for him especially that it\'s the first time he will drink liqour and he found himself growing increasingly tipsy. The system, recognizing the need for Seojun to rest and enjoy himself, refrained from activating any resistance or monitoring.

Seojun laughed and mingled with the crowd, reveling in the joyous atmosphere. The wine had a strong effect, and he soon felt the pleasant haze of intoxication, making him more relaxed and carefree than he had been in a long time.

As he danced and celebrated with the demons, he let himself fully embrace the moment, enjoying the break from his usual intense focus and responsibilities. The celebrations continued around him, and for the first time in a long while, Seojun allowed himself to simply have fun.

The morning sun filtered through the curtains as Seojun slowly woke up, his head throbbing painfully.

[Good morning, Host.]

Seojun squinted at the system display and winced. "Yeah, good morning. Ah, my head hurts. So this is what happens when you get drunk?"

[Yes, Host.]

He threw off the blanket and quickly looked down at himself, eyes widening in shock. startled by the sight of Malara lying beside him. "What happened?! Why is she beside me?! And why am I shirtless?!" He instinctively hugged his body, feeling the rush of embarrassment.

[Don\'t jump to conclusions, Host. Nothing happened. You told her you\'d be leaving soon, so she insisted on staying beside you. Besides, Huno and Silla are also with you.]

Seojun glanced and On the other side of the bed, Huno lay curled up in his adult size, while Silla, in his snake form, was coiled comfortably on top of Huno.

Seeing them there, Seojun sighed in relief. "I don\'t want to get drunk again. I get drunk too fast and don\'t remember what happened."

[That\'s understandable, Host. You were weak in liqour. Do you want to see what embarrassing things you did?]

Seojun scratched his cheek, blushing and mention his friend in earth. "What did I do? I hope it wasn\'t something as stupid as what Alex did."

[Alex tried to give hugs and kisses anyone in his sight instead of you doing something like that, Host you--]

"No! Stop, System! Just forget about that!" Seojun interrupted, his face turning even redder.

He quickly got out of bed and spotted his shirt on the floor. After pulling it on, he felt a bit more composed.

The day after Seojun\'s drunken mishap, he was surprised by an unexpected visit. Nerathiel, the fallen deity and embodiment of Wrath, came to see him. Seojun had anticipated tension, but Nerathiel\'s demeanor was calm, though the underlying intensity was ever-present.
