The travel was going fine and peaceful.

Until The Fire nation Attacked!

*Ahem*

Until The bandits Attacked. AND, got dealt with. Easily. So easily that it hurt Hilsman's pride.

The bandits were indeed strong but against the plot armor of the 3 main characters,

Muda da (It was useless.)

Leaving the topic. Nothing happened for the rest of the day except Simon saw the first misunderstanding of his life.

Ngl, Simon was proud of it.

After that, the day and night went fine. It was peaceful.

Until The Fire nation Attacked! [ok, I will stop. that was the last one]

...

April 6

Simon, Cale, and co reach the viscount Tolz's territory. They were stopping to ask for the nearest inn.

Hans spotted an old man crossing the street and was about to call him.

But, A carriage came running at a high speed. The old man was late to react and just as he was about to get hit, Choi Han sprinted to save him.

The old man survived by a hair. He immediately thanked Choi Han, who was angry.

Choi Han looked around and saw a woman come out of the carriage with another man.

They were dressed in expensive clothes. Choi Han shouted at them.

The woman replied with a sneer while the man started mocking not just the old man but Choi Han too.

Choi Han was really angry. These people almost killed an innocent old man but showed no sign of remorse. How could they be this cruel?

Did they think this was a game? As he was about to respond, a hand was placed on his shoulder.

He looked around and saw Cale. Choi Han was about to say something but Cale cut him off.

"Choi Han"

Choi Han remained silent. The man was still mocking Choi Han.

Cale was about to say something but he saw Simon moving towards the man.

Simon opened his mouth.

"Sorry, Sir. Our friend gets too angry sometimes. But Someone like you shouldn't be bothered to talk to anybody like him. It would just be a waste of your precious time."

The man's sneered change. Clearly, Simon was taunting him. What was up with that half-assed compliment?

It makes no sense at all.

As he was about to retort Simon, A blonde guy came behind him. The man immediately shut up.

The blonde was none other than Venion Stan. He looked at Simon with slight disgust.

He then looked at Cale, like not even recognizing Simon's existence.

Simon knew this would happen but he still felt frustrated. He made a promise in his heart.

'I am about to end this man's whole career.'

Then the plot happened. The words of Cale and Venion were slightly different from the original but it was basically the same.

They talked for a bit and Cale went used his tactic of 'trash.'

A trash can only be defeated by another trash.

'Modern problems require modern solutions.' was the thought of Simon.

After that, they went to the inn owned by the old man. Cale went to his room and Simon also went to another room.

The day passed and Cale had ordered the cats to put the Magic jammer. (There is a proper name but I don't remember. Bear with it)

...

The next day was the same for most of the people. Except for Simon, Cale, and the co.

Cale ordered everyone to drink and party. The guards and others were hesitant but Simon challenged Cale.

Choi Han was confused about what the challenge was about. Cale had told him about the black dragon this morning. He was ready to fight some gruesome battle.

Instead, Simon challenged Cale. This was really confusing to him. But, he kept his silence.

On the other hand, Simon was filled with confidence. He had a body literally resistant to getting drunk.

When Cale was explaining the plan this morning he told Cale about his own plan.

Simon had stared right at Cale as Cale had given him a weird look before nodding.

Now at present, He and Cale sat down facing each other. The innkeeper brought many bottles of wine.

"Rules of Drinking"

|Number 1| Toast

Cale and Simon toasted. It was done at the start of every drinking game. They looked at each other straight in the eyes.

The guards were quiet, Ron had his usual benign smile, Beacrox looked like he found this interesting, the innkeeper was silent.

He had seen many drinking battles but this one had a different atmosphere. The seriousness seemed to be higher. He subconsciously gulped. The gulp was heard by many.

|Number 2| Refer to everyone in the Third person

"Cale, This humble Simon advises you to give up as a friend of yours."

Cale looked at Simon and answered with a

"Nope"

|Number 3| The buyer gets the first shot

Cale took a bottle in his hand. He gripped the side as the innkeeper took out the cork in the most professional way he could.

Cale took the bottle near his mouth as he started drinking.

He gulped down the entire bottle. In a chug. In a single chug. The guards had cold sweat at the seriousness. They were afraid that a bottle might come flying at them but they didn't care.

They looked at Cale and subconsciously thought of a word.

'Emperor'

Cale didn't have the Dominating Aura yet but he still had his charm. It's the way how the main character is drawn in the best way possible.

The camera angles have a single purpose. To show the handsomeness of the Protagonist.

The guards as men who had drunk alcohol for a lot of their life felt respect for someone that made drinking alcohol this attractive.

They respected him.

|Number 4| Drink. Drink. Drink.

Simon smiled at Cale. He also took a bottle. The first bottle should be opened by a third party while it is in the buyer's hand.

A proof. That is proof to prove a person both the referee and witness of the match.

The others were opened according to the pace of the drinkers.

Simon took a bottle and chugged it. He downed the bottle.

Then the battle began. Cale drank and Simon drank. They kept drinking. Exciting the guards, They shouted and started drinking too.

They partied and cheered either Simon or Cale. Ron was still smiling, Beacrox was annoyed at the mess the guards were making so he left, The innkeeper wiped the sweat off his forehead.

As he announced,

" The winner of this Challenge is none other than Young Master Cale Henituse."

""""""""" YaY!!! Wohooooooo!!!! """""""""""

Cheers were heard. The guards were shouting and drinking.

The First Match between Simon & Cale. The score was 0-1.

In short,

The Emperor had won.
