Chapter 389 – 34. One Point Between Two Islands
A banquet that started suddenly.
And then we got caught up in a drinking party without even having time to prepare.
However, the drink was very sweet because there were beautiful women around her and her mind felt more at ease.
Haha, cheers!”
“Cheers!”
Continental alcohol is usually made based on fruit, whether distilled or fermented.
In comparison, Futashima and the Cheonan Empire are mostly Gokju.
For the first time in a long time, I drank grain wine instead of beer, and it went down my throat.
The fact that Futashima’s traditional liquor was quite to his taste also played a role.
Haha, you really are a saint! Unlike other men, drinking alcohol is refreshing!”
“Really. Wouldn’t you be a perfect match for Tsubaki-dono?”
“That’s right, that’s right!”
Also, the Oni people’s ability to lift the mood was very great.
Before Han Si-woo could say anything, he was swept away and had already emptied a can of alcohol.
I wasn’t drunk yet, but if I continued at this pace, the film would soon cut out.
‘Whether you’re an oni or a moon fox, it’s no fun at a drinking party.’
If the Oni people make you drink to your heart’s content with their bossy atmosphere, the moon foxes are against it.
He offers you a drink in the strange air and makes you drink it down.
Unlike the Oni people, who like drinking alone, they like old-fashioned banquets.
The two core tribes of Futashima have many things in common, but if you look inside, you can see some differences.
It’s fun and interesting, but it’s a bit overwhelming right now.
‘What kind of alcohol are you drinking out of a box?’
Of course, you don’t really drink it straight.
There are strange things in Futashima, but there are no chests.
But when I saw the Oni people drinking with a bucket of alcohol on each side, that thought came to me.
It would be fortunate if that was all, but there are tons of empty containers lying around in the back.
Will I really be able to survive here?
‘Uhm. I don’t want to drink too much today…’
Even if you glance around, it’s not the right time to ask for help.
I originally came to Oni Island with only a few people, so I wonder how many people I am friends with.
Surprisingly, both Elaine and Baek Hye-yeon got along well with the residents in their different places.
The Oni people did not find it difficult with the women, but they treated them very comfortably and did not seem to encourage them to drink too much.
Suzumeya was by my side from the beginning, and I left Makina Senjo and Hikari at Fox Island.
In case of any unexpected situation, Suzume needs to be with a German person to keep the public’s attention while she is away.
‘In the end, I have to survive alone.’
“Now, take a drink!”
“Oh, yes.”
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t even realize the glass was empty.
After taking a sip of the freshly poured sake, Suzume called to him in a friendly voice from next to him.
“Siwoo?”
“Yes, Suzume.”
“If you feel like you have too much to drink, please refuse right away.”
“Haha, thank you for your concern. I’ll stop eating in moderation.”
“Yes♡”
She is smiling brightly and sipping the drink she holds in both hands.
Unlike the Oni people, they drink alcohol in a passive manner, perhaps because they are moon foxes who pursue quality rather than quantity.
Still, perhaps because everyone around her was a monster, it seemed like Suzume drank three or four bottles of alcohol.
Is that why?
“Hmm…”
She slightly tilted her body to the side, perhaps for some reason.
“Are you okay?”
“Hehe, sure.”
It was indeed a desirable moon fox.
Suzume acts with facial expressions and voice as if she is drunk or not.
It seemed so natural that on the contrary, I had doubts.
‘Well, I guess it doesn’t matter.’
Rather, isn’t this kind of beauty her charm?
“Oh my.”
Suzume eventually moved her body from side to side and gently rested her head on Shiu’s shoulder.
At the same time, she was worried that Si-woo might not like it.
“If you feel dizzy, lean a little more.”
“Huh… Yes…♡”
And she was delighted with Siwoo’s answer and relaxed her body.
Is it because she was relieved by the assurance that she didn’t hate it?
She didn’t drink that much, but she was already feeling dizzy.
‘Ha, I like it♥’
The atmosphere of the drinking party began to change little by little due to the strange flirting between the two.
“…”
However, other Oni tribes did not target Siwoo.
Instead, they gave a harsh look to their leader, Tsubaki, who was sitting opposite Suzume.
I flinch.
‘Ugh.’
Of course, that doesn’t mean she just wants to stay still.
In my heart, I wanted to lean on her shoulder like Suzume.
No, I wanted to go beyond that and just pick Siwoo up and head to her room.
But would it be easy for her who was so shy just by touching her hand?
‘Girls also have to do something…’
Tsubaki stops drinking happily and just quietly rolls her eyes.
The Oni people were just frustrated with Tsubaki.
‘No, why are you staying still!’
‘Okay, that’s frustrating. I wish I could at least give you some advice.’
‘No need to think about it too hard, just start with your lips!’
‘Tsk tsk. Tsubaki-dono is all good, but as soon as she gets involved with a man…’
I wonder if I should secretly call her somewhere else and give her some advice.
Looking at it honestly, it didn’t seem like they could beat Suzume in something related to seduction.
Indeed, the romance of the Oni people is a straight rush, with no backsliding or push-and-pull.
How can we overcome the skills of the moon fox beastman, who is famous for being cruel?
“…?”
Shiwoo accepted Suzume’s temptation and ate her snacks.
He also read the strange atmosphere and looked at the Oni people.
‘Aha.’
Although he seemed to be saying he was restraining himself, he seemed to be quite blatantly giving Tsubaki his attention.
‘You’re really naive. That’s cute too.’
If Suzume’s attractiveness is her seductive side, Tsubaki’s opposite.
I like the fact that she is a fresh virgin more than other women.
Without thinking too much, Shiu put down his drink and wrapped his arms around Tsubaki’s waist.
“…?!”
“It’s too far. Come a little closer.”
“Eh, eh, yeah…”
What kind of voice is this again?
I could barely stop myself from bursting out laughing at that moment.
Tsubaki used to be threatening when in hostile situations, but when their relationship changes, she is really cute.
Now I can’t imagine her getting used to skinship.
Still, even Tsubaki wouldn’t be like this all the time, so she decided to enjoy this cuteness until then.
“Can you give me a drink?”
“Yes~♡ Siwoo, the girl…”
“No, Tsubaki.”
“Cheet. I understand. This time, I will give in.”
Suzume said that and handed Tsubaki a bottle of sake.
Even though she said so, Suzume was planning to give in to Tsubaki from the beginning.
It was obvious that this stuffy piece of cake would be in trouble again if I didn’t push it like this.
‘Anyway, he’s a tactless kid.’
In his heart, he wanted to shake off Tsubaki and kidnap Shiu and live alone with him.
Although her start was a little wrong, she firmly believes that she is pure love.
The reason she couldn’t do it even thought there was a dangerous desire in her heart was because Suzume also had a sense of responsibility and guilt.
‘The girl is so nice~♡’
Meanwhile, Suzume, who still hasn’t gotten over her habits, is lost in her narcissism.
“Okay, gulp, cow. … Uh, what?”
A tactless female Oni was embarrassed after receiving a bottle of alcohol from a fox.
‘The glass…’
It is not visible.
It was inevitable.
To her right, Suzume was leaning on her shoulder, and her left arm was wrapped around Tsubaki’s waist.
A situation where you can’t move.
The simplest solution would be for Suzume to raise her head, but the smile in her eyes emphasized that she had no intention of doing so.
So what does she have to do?
“Tsubaki?”
“Ah, ah, yes.”
“Quickly. Drink.”
“No, uh…”
Not knowing what to do, Tsubaki just rolls her eyes like before and asks for help from those around her.
On the other hand, those with good sense noticed what Siwoo wanted long ago.
Some people even whistled and playfully encouraged the two.
“The glass. The glass…”
“A glass? Hehe. My hands are busy right now?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“So, I’ll ask you a favor.”
“…? … Ah. Ah. Ahhh.”
She remained oblivious and only realized something after Siwoo nodded and winked a few times.
But here again, a choice of either/or appeared.
Do you pour her own drink and bring it to her mouth?
‘Oh, otherwise…’ . Gulp.’
She thought she had swallowed dry saliva, but before she knew it, a lot of drool had accumulated in her mouth and flowed down her throat.
Although Tsubaki is shy and reserved when it comes to her relationships with men and women and physical contact, she is not a coward without courage.
She fell in love with him just like Suzume, although not at first sight.
The drunkenness that had begun to swirl as she worked hard on her brain pushed Tsubaki on the back.
“Wait a moment, hehe. Please wait.”
“Yes.”
Tsubaki asks for Shiu’s understanding and takes a deep breath to control her mind.
She soon lifted her bottle and brought it to her own mouth.
“Oh?”
“Oh! This is really…”
“Huh.”
“What an unexpected result!”
There was a noise around her, but she couldn’t reach Tsubaki’s ears.
All that can be heard is the sound of her own heart.
Tsubaki blew on her bottle and filled her mouth with alcohol, then put her lips out to Shiu.
Si-woo, who had no idea he would do something like this, widened his eyes and smiled softly.
“12 out of 10. … Churp.”
Lips overlapped.
Onihime Tsubaki ruled the Oni Island and clan for over 10 years after becoming the head of the family at a young age.
Her first kiss, long after she was an adult, was the subtle sweetness of alcohol.
