Vol 5 Chapter 46 (2/2)

Why are you so drunk so quickly when it’s so weak?

“Oi, let go of blade girl at once you b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Can’t you see that she’s tilted her head all the way to the side already?” Lady Zhurong, who sat beside Meng Huo, stood up shakily and walked over and kicked Meng Huo’s b.u.t.t.

After Meng Huo let out several disgusting moans, he let go of me and fell to the ground. Lady Zhurong didn’t care and continued to shower physical abuse on Meng Huo. It was a little too hard to watch so I turned away and continued to drink on my own.

“… Oi.”

Un?

Lu Bu, who was sitting on my other side, called out to me. I turned and saw Lu Bu raising her bowl to me with a slightly reddened face.

“Ah ah…” I hurriedly brought my bowl towards it when I saw Lu Bu’s gesture.

*Ding*! A clear sound rang out and some wine spilled out. I held my bowl and downed it in 1 gulp while Lu Bu did the same as well.

Haa… I drank a little too much too quickly, and my throat was stung a little.

“Lord Guan Yu… Are you still thinking about what happened in Luoyang?”

“Eh?” Lu Bu’s sudden words made me feel a little awkward. If I said I didn’t think about it anymore, that would be fake. But many things have happened since then, so I’ve accepted it already.

And so, I filled my bowl and smiled, “That was something that couldn’t have been helped. In any case, to us now, there are some things we can’t avoid doing.”

“… No. To be honest, I could have refrained from killing them back then.”

“Eh?”

“The only reason why I killed them was because I wanted to. That’s all.” Lu Bu continued as she licked the last bit of wine left in her bowl, “Even though I wish to see the world at peace, I still hunger for blood. What a farce.”

“… Lord Lu Bu.” I looked at Lu Bu’s calm expression and extended my bowl, “Feeling lost is a good thing. I too am lost. We just need to keep moving forward, and we will get our answer eventually.”

*Ding*! As I finished, I clinked bowls with Lu Bu on my own accord and downed the contents.

“Un…” Lu Bu sank into silence and clumsily nodded before she licked the wine in her bowl once more.

I don’t know if I misheard it, but Lu Bu seemed to have uttered “Xuan De” softly under her breath. I smiled, and licked my empty bowl just like she did.

“Oh~ Do you both have any more wine left? The wine jugs over where I came from are all empty~” Wen Yuan, who had been partying with the troops, came over as she licked her bowl as well.

At this scene before me, I couldn’t help but to laugh.
