Avery looked down at his cup, creased his forehead then looked at her and shook his head."I think I'll start to lose control of my sobriety if I take another cup. Thanks for the offer though" Avery said and she smiled."It's no problem," Kenser replied then went to return the almost empty bottle of wine on the shelf. Meanwhile, Avery's attention was drawn by the customers and the languages they were speaking once more.('Hmm, does this mean I have to learn all these languages as I find a way to return to my world? Now that I think about it, I wonder what where I'm from is called. It's on the tip of my tongue but it's just so difficult remembering fully. I guess my memory is not ready yet but whatever.') He thought then shrugged.('Anyway, about returning home, I hope there's a central language that the majority of the population speaks, like the English of this world. If I can learn that then it would be really helpful in maneuvering around this world on my own.') Avery thought, but i

"You know what, if you don't want to say it then it's fine. I just wanted to tell you to go away from here and let me handle this. I don't want you getting dragged into this mess in case this gets out of—" Avery said after observing that Mosey was vibrating with anger because of Centshuu's jacket, but then Vox interrupted his sentence./"Seems you two are having a secret chat while I was telling my friends what this rude dog did to my very expensive boots. Now that I think about it, what nonsense was he saying in whatever backwater language you two were speaking? He was bragging about what he did to me wasn't he?!"\ Vox said and Kenser jolted./"No, he wasn't! No bragging statements were made—"\ she said but was cut off./"Bitch, would you shut the fuck up! Do you think we don't know an insult when we hear one?! I'm sure we can dissect that entire monkey dialogue you two just had and find an insult or two somewhere. Stupid bitch thinks she's smart"\ said Mikie, the first guy to have sp

*Drip* *Drip* *Drip* *Drip*One drop after another, blood from Vox’s wound fell into the sheet of alcohol on the floor, mixing with it and changing the color of the spilled beverage to an increasing red hue. Mikie and the rest who had been observing the bleeding from behind Vox looked down at the gradually spreading blood and alcohol mixture then they looked at Vox. /“Hey Vox, you gonna patch that up first or—?”\ Mikie asked but Vox who knew what the rest of his statement was going to be cut him off./“I’m gonna patch it, alright, but first, I’m gonna kill the stupid prick that caused it and I’m gonna do it with my bare hands!”\ Vox said, aiming a mean sneer at Avery while his body vibrated with rage. He flicked his eyes down, crouched, and swept his palm in the alcohol and blood mixture on the floor, making sure he had enough liquid on the palm before standing up. Once standing, Vox clenched the fist of his wounded arm then pressed the alcohol-covered palm on the cut he had recei

Sitting comfortably on one of the Velvet Serpent’s main hall couches, a tall and muscular gentleman flanked by two beautiful service girls had his eyes fixed on what was taking place at the bar.{"Hmm, what a peculiar dance routine. If I wasn't wiser, I'd have thought that it was a gang-up, but violence is against the rules, is it not?"} he mused in Meratti, observing the strange exchange between Avery and Vox.Since nobody was able to touch the other all through their short-lived brawl, it hadn’t dawned on onlookers that what was happening before their eyes was a serious fight. The consensus for a majority of them was that it was a strange dance number, done to compliment the music performance on stage.After all, how could someone of Avery’s stature manage to evade all of Vox’s attacks? That could only be possible if everything was something previously rehearsed. Just then, the service girl by this intrigued gentleman’s left gently placed her hand on his jaw, fingertips sinking int

After getting a closer look at the battle’s aftermath, seeing Kief’s and Fez’s contorted bodies on the floor and observing the damage Avery had done to them, Centshuu, masked with a confused expression, faced Avery.He asked “Even though I watched the craziness in person, for a moment, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Pug— I mean Avery, you really did this to these two grown-ass men?” Centshuu asked.Avery took in a deep breath and then sighed to regain composure, no longer panting. “Yes I did, but honestly I had no other choice. I tried to handle things as best as I could peacefully. I wanted a violence-free resolution but these guys just didn’t want to comply. Even though there was a communication barrier between us, that still didn’t warrant things getting to this stage” Avery said disappointedly.Centshuu, seeing that the young man in front of him was being honest about trying his best to handle the situation peacefully but failed at doing so, grunted. He took another look at Kief and
