The Villainous Me Turned the Losers into Blackened Bosses-Chapter 129 - Her Alcohol Tolerance Isnt That Great
Chapter 129: Her Alcohol Tolerance Isn’t That Great
—
Huh?
Huh huh huh?!
For the first time, after having his face pinched, Will found himself being… seriously… having his arm muscles squeezed by a girl.
He had thought she was joking, but…
Her grip was quite strong. With a sudden squeeze, Will felt a tingling sensation where her fingers pressed.
“Yes… I do train regularly.”
“No wonder…”
She shook her now-empty wine glass and called out to the bartender, who seemed to be the owner—
“Another one, please! Yes… another Chaos Alpha with five drops of mint extract!”
Will noticed the bartender giving Shuna a complex look before taking her glass and turning to make her drink.
“Come on, let’s keep talking. About things you didn’t write in your letters over the years. Oh, and I haven’t shared much about myself either.”
Shuna seemed to drop the topic of “Will, do you want to step into the spotlight?” but…
Will had a vague feeling that she wasn’t just using that as an excuse to squeeze his arm muscles. The more someone drinks, the more their true thoughts show in their eyes. Beneath her slightly tipsy gaze…
She not only had that thought but was eager to put it into action.
“Hmm… where should I start? How about my first job as a freelance adventurer?”
“Remember? You asked me about the weaknesses of the Ice Armor technique back then…”
“Hehe, I didn’t know much at the time.”
…
Will was genuinely happy that evening.
Although discovering that S was a girl had initially shocked him, sitting in that small tavern, listening to Shuna talk about her adventures as a freelance adventurer, sharing his own dungeon insights, and discussing the current dungeons and their challenges…
It brought back memories for Will…
Of the days before he became a game planner, when he and his friends would play games together, discussing how to defeat bosses, what gear to use, and which characters were best after school.
“And then… well… later on, there was that time I got you the ice demon’s blood…”
Shuna seemed genuinely drunk, her speech becoming slurred and fragmented.
Well…
Her alcohol tolerance was really impressive!
Will had never seen anyone drink as if they were quenching their thirst while chatting, especially with a strong drink like Chaos Alpha.
She was incredibly strong!
Will was full of admiration.
(In an admiring tone) As expected of S!
After another glass, she leaned on her arm.
Although the tavern had small cooling machines, preventing the summer heat from seeping in, drinking still made one sweat. Her black hair, damp with sweat, clung to her forehead.
Maintaining the same posture for too long, she would occasionally cross her legs, shifting them under the dim light, revealing the interplay of silk threads and light on her stockings.
Her movements and expressions made Will swallow hard, as if she were intentionally teasing him.
“That time, I almost died… it was… really thrilling.”
“Huh? What happened?”
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
Shuna’s words pulled him back from admiring her appearance.
So, he listened intently as Shuna recounted her battle in the snow abyss with her teammates, how they narrowly escaped danger, and how their prior planning was crucial.
“That’s when I realized, Will, that what you taught me… logistics… is incredibly important…”
Although she was slurring her words a bit due to the alcohol.
But!
Will was fired up!
It was so cool that Shuna had participated in such an epic dungeon expedition years ago.
Listening to her recount the tale, Will felt invigorated, ready to roll up his sleeves and join her.
It rivaled the dungeon adventures he had read about in books.
Will had an epiphany.
Looking at the beautiful and well-built Shuna…
He finally understood what he had been pondering since meeting her—
S being a woman didn’t stop her from being his good buddy!
Good buddies should conquer dungeons together. He needed to find a way to recruit Shuna!
Wait… speaking of conquering dungeons together…
It was only then that Will remembered he had come to meet S for a very important reason.
The fragment of the enhancement stone that was clearly from the game.
“By the way, Shuna, about the fragment you mentioned…”
“Snore…”
However, the only response Will got was the soft sound of Shuna snoring.
She…
Was really drunk?
Her head rested on her arm, eyes closed, seemingly drifting into sleep.
Hmm…
Will cautiously leaned in, poking her cheek with his finger. Surprisingly, Shuna’s skin was well-maintained, soft to the touch.
But…
After poking…
She didn’t wake up.
Her alcohol tolerance wasn’t as high as he thought.
But… she had drunk a lot. Will remembered her chatting and gulping down drinks like water.
Once she started talking, she treated the drink like water, getting drunk and passing out… in the XXX Tavern, just like the scene where the protagonist was taken away by the Dungeon Queen in the original story.
No…
Wait?!
If she’s drunk…
Where should he take her?!
The rented house was fully occupied…
He wasn’t running a dungeon; his place wasn’t big enough.
And… taking a drunk girl home from a tavern…
It would make him look like a pervert!?
“Uh… Shuna, wake up…?”
They had talked for a long time, and it was getting late. The tavern was nearly empty, quiet.
This drinking session seemed to be coming to an end.
Isaac, watching from the side, also sensed trouble.
She had claimed she would get him drunk, but she ended up passing out first?!
Shuna, you’re so weak.
Given the situation… maybe Shuna would have to abandon her plan to take him back.
“No worries, young man, you…”
However…
Before Isaac could finish his sentence, Shuna suddenly opened her eyes, as if she had overcome her drunkenness, and lifted her head with difficulty—
Her eyes even had a determined gleam.
Shuna grabbed Will’s wrist with one swift motion.
Isaac saw the message in her eyes: “Boss, we’re sticking to the plan.”
How could she stick to the plan in this state?!
“Uh… I might have drunk too much. Little Will, could you… be a gentleman…”
Unexpectedly…
Shuna, swaying slightly, held his wrist, her lips curling into a smile.
“—and take me home~?”
Isaac was impressed.
So this was her plan all along!
Had she been pretending earlier?
And the young master Will, clearly too innocent, blushed immediately at Shuna’s advance.
This wasn’t what Isaac had expected. He had thought Will would be a seasoned player.
“Uh… sure… no problem…”
Will nodded.
It’s just taking a buddy home, no need to be nervous.
“Great~ Now… follow me!”
But…
Isaac sensed trouble.
Shuna’s unsteady steps were typical of someone extremely drunk and not fully conscious.
