so he's looking for a drinking master*these 2 sentences are weird to me, i don't know what Tenpuremasuta is, though i understand its a refference to something*. Then I'll give him a drinking master! Hajime's tension began to increase. He's still just polishing glass to make it shiny, but he values his reputation. If you come here, and the liquor is drunk in great loads, he'll definitely be delighted.
Hajime, places money on the counter with an poker face while secretly being happy about being able to taste a fantasy game hero's feelings. From the darkness in the corner of his mind, a mini-Hajime asked, [You called?], peeping out.
[That's true. Master, I ask for the strongest and worst quality liquor you have in this shop]
[......If you vomit, i'll kick you out]
The master, the moment Hajime ordered, reluctantly pulled out a bottle from the shelf behind him and his eyebrow twitched slightly as he placed it on the counter with a pikui~ sound.
Adventurers were all staring at Hajime because they felt cautious that he wasn't just a kid, they understood due to the pressure he released.
Hajime picks up the bottle and abruptly cuts the tip off with his finger tips. The action itself was fluid and people who understood held their breath. Even the master's eyes were widening a little.
A strong alcoholic smell drifts from the bottle as soon as it was open, Shia and Kaori who was by his side instinctively covered their nose due to the fumes. Kouki and them also backs away while groaning "Uu".
[hey, Nagumo-kun? So, do you have to drink that? Shouldn't you stop?]
[yes, that's right. you'll absolutely vomit. Suzu already seems to want to vomit]
[In the first place Hajime, lets have it be a better liquor if your going to drink it anyways]
[Its as Kaori says, Hajime. Why did you purposely ask for that one.....]
Shizuku and them relay their complaints without restraint. Yue by his side pulls the hem of his clothes while frowning from the smell of the liquor.
[No, its bad manners to not taste liquor thats open.... are you looking down on the liquor?]
Hajime replies as they're worrying.
A smile slightly appeared on the mouth of the master from the joke. Hajime thought, I got the master to smile! There must not be a lot of adventurers who respect the taste of liquor very often.
