Chapter 245 Feast 5
Aldrich took a tentative sip frolohat looked to be a suspiciously radioactive green did nothing at all to whet his appetite, but if itwith his units, then so be it
The taste was bitter, far more bitter than the Cool Lite that the Blackwater students loved to down It was also strangely cold, not just in a refreshi+ng way, but in a slightly nu way
"A tiny sip like that!? From my warleader no less!? How could this be!" Volantis shouted in despair to the heavens
"Do not insult ourout whether it is even worthy for his tastes!" said Okeanos He was starting to get a little shaky Seemed that in terms of sheer tolerance, he stood below the likes of Volantis and Leos
Whether that was because Okeanos still had flesh and shell and blood while Volantis and Leos were a living set of armor and a pile of bones was up for debate
"Hah, I knew the Usurper was but askull of a head
"You would insult the one I chose as my own Usurper, Leos?" the Death Lord leered at the skeleton "You will find yourself sorely mistaken I know that my Usurper has what it takes to be Lord over Death!"
'Being death lord ht Aldrich
"Do not pressure hiant" She swirled her wine glass of blood around with smooth, controlled motions "Drink ismarch"
"You vampires do have an obsessive wine culture And a flair for the elegant," said the Death Lord "And such pride, too There was a reason I could never get your kind to join e to tame this one, I wonder? noble born vampire lady with an obsessive-violent streak Hm?"
"Time and dedication," said Aldrich, and his words were honest He was still speaking in gah because he had spent hours and hours of tihest level of bond with her, and she was perhaps one of the most difficult companion characters to do that with
Aldrich noticed Valera had turned bright red, looking shyly away from Aldrich
"Time and dedication, hm?" the Death Lord put a hand to her cheek "Hoeet And ad water carve canyons They are powerful tools to have, especially as an undead But you knohat is just as important?"
"What?" Aldrich said, expectant of the wisdoon
"Drink!" the Death Lord pointed a clawed finger at Aldrich's still full itihed Aldrich
"It is proper advice Come now, look-," The Death Lord pointed over to Volantis, Leos, and Okeanos who all stared at Aldrich expectantly "Breaking bread and sharing drink ons, it is a familiar concept"
Valera put a hand on Aldrich's arht, Valera" Aldrich cracked his neck, like he was about to actually fight so and started downing it He ignored the funky taste and just focused on taking in as much liquid volume as possible
"Now that is what I call a proper Warleader! Theat this display!" Volantis shouted
"Heh, I knew you had it in you, boy," said Leos
"See? My ," said Okeanos
"Hahah! Now that is the spirit!" the Death Lord waved over a skeleton waiter holding a barrel "Bring that over!"
The skeleton raised the barrel towards the Death Lord, looking at the table for herbut realized soon she had none The skeleton chattered its teeth in questioning
"I need no such thing!" the Death Lord grabbed the huge barrel froh above her head with one hand, and then punched a hole into the ith the other This created a spout that poured liquid down like a flood
The Death Lord, like a snake, literally unhinged her jaw, letting her drink the entirety of the sizable outflow
"You really are a snakeā¦," Valera eyed the Death Lord with equal parts repulsion at the inelegant behavior and wonder at howHe had drank all of it His head felt nu into hih his undead poison immunity He wondered how that even worked, but he found it difficult to think too hard about it "And this is why I don't like drinking"
"Ahh, how refreshi+ng" The Death Lord tossed her now empty barrel far away
"Another! For the warleader!" Volantis sla it into pieces
"Aye, I can drink to that," said Leos, the flahter
"Drink for the !" chi refilled back to the brim from a skeleton waiter
"So, how much more do I have to drink?" said Aldrich
"How rave sin!" Volantis exclai and devouring does not end until all is consumed Or until blood is drawn! Or both!"
"Sounds like chaos," said Aldrich "Which I happen to not appreciate much"
"Indeed," said Valera
