6. Talk at the Bar

A full day has passed since Seth started his tour to goddesses and one bottle through his realm while also having many bouts with Aqua.

Like a montage, the adventures the three of them go through as Seth tours Aqua and Eris are:

1. Eris smiled as Aqua playfully chucked all the books into the central void of a tower library, watching them fall again from above them, creating an infinite loop.

2. Seth and Aqua continued their competition of water control in an eastern-styled training dojo, with training gyms, stadiums, and swimming pools nearby.

3. The two goddesses pretended to listen to Seth's explanations about his futuristic and robotic equipment in his gigantic sci-fi lab/factory.

4. Seth showcased his magical potion collection in his wizard tower apothecary, only for Aqua to 'accidentally' add ingredients to his active cauldrons, leading to a comical explosion.

5. They visited a diverse nature reserve comprising various tiny realms, each with unique environments. Aqua, in a lighthearted mishap, found herself stranded in a desert realm while searching the sea.

6. Aqua and Seth did a musical performance on top of a clam-shaped outdoor opera house as the fishes in the skies danced to the tunes. All this started because Seth asked if Aqua or Eris wanted to perform, and Aqua took it as a challenge.

7. The trio played poker at Seth's entertainment area with arcades and more, sadly it was cut short due to Eris's luck. 

8. They ventured into a dark and depressing dungeon, where Eris' suggestions for dealing with criminals from all the groups involved in his organization made Seth break a sweat.

9. Seth showed the goddesses his throne room, complete with a remote that could alter the room design based on their imagination. Aqua and Eris had fun using and passing each other the remote, it took them 10 minutes to grow tired of it.

This summary captures the essence of their day together.

Their day finally came to a close, Seth, Aqua, and Eris were finally at their final destination: the first creation in his realm, his bar which had expanded to a high-class vintage bar. 

The bottle of wine Aqua brought along finally fulfilled its purpose, instantly poured and shared among the three.

Seth had to admit that this drink, crafted by and for higher beings, exceeded any human-made booze he'd tasted from his past. He also felt something profound inside him burning and growing.

He thought of using his power to replicate this drink, recreating its unique taste and effect, but found it almost impossible for now. He could only create a small part of the special taste and none of its godly effect. This was a roadblock for him, yet he was happy because he felt with time and training, he could achieve something from it.

With a wave of his hand, Seth conjured a perfect replica of Aqua's wine. He Popped its cork and poured it into all three wine glasses they had just drunk from.

Eris looked surprised, While Aqua's eyes sparkled.

"Seth, did you just copy this drink?" Eris inquired, Seth nodded.

"And what about the taste?" Aqua asked eagerly.

Seth raised his wine glass and took a generous sip, "just as I expected, only like a quarter of its true worth."

"Can I?" Aqua stared at both the wine glass and bottle, her intention clear.

"You may," Seth said, The second Seth uttered those words, a gust blew through. Seth found her in a corner, the bottle was already planted into her lips, and a satisfied grin spread across her face.

"Uwahh… It's watery but still good." Aqua gasped with a smile.

Having dealt with Aqua, Seth made eye contact with Eris, who had already sampled the wine.

"That was no ordinary wine, Seth. It has the unique properties known to enhance the strength of gods."

Seth nodded, acknowledging, "I know, my imitation only possesses part of the taste and none of the benefits."

"Give me five bottles now, Seth!" Aqua exclaimed.

Seth obliged and swiped his arm, and five bottles emerged. 

"YAHOO! Thank you, Seth! You're the best!!!" Aqua joyfully claimed all the bottles, retreating to her corner to consume them like no tomorrow.

"Can it really not be taken outside?" Eris silently asked,

"Nope, the moment you do, it turns to dust," Seth replied quietly. Recalling the efforts made by the organization to extract it from his realm.

"SETH! Give me a crate, I'm taking them back!" Aqua with a drunken grin shouted.

"Aqua… they told us that won't work, it can only exist here." Eris reprimanded.

"That means I'm staying here!"

"No, I'm not allowing it." Seth instantly rejected the idea.

"BUT WHY? I'll even do anything!" Aqua shouted. Eris, who heard it found it inappropriate.

"Still no," Seth still rejected, feeling that she would cause trouble here.

"FINE THEN! Make me a crate of it! With the great power this goddess holds, I don't believe those bottles will disappear!" Aqua demanded.

Seth poofed a sizable crate and said, "Good luck."

Aqua immediately clung to the crate, adding numerous runes and enchantments to it. Eris could only offer an awkward smile, knowing the endeavor would be fruitless.

Seth clapped two times. catching both Aqua and Eris's attention. He gestured to a kitchen set that had just appeared behind him, "Why don't we have a feast to go with my imitation wine? I know it's basic human food, but hey, it's better than nothing. do you have any suggestions?"

"STEAK, SEAFOOD, AND PASTA!" Aqua shouted, then went back to working on her crate.

Seth turned to Eris, who wore a lovely smile. "Anything you choose to make would be most appreciated."

"K then," Seth said. Using his powers, he manipulated the cooking utensils and sat down with the others while the utensils prepared the food.

As they waited, Aqua finished her work on the crate, and the food was finally ready. 

as plates of delicious food arrived on the table, Eris suggested, "Why don't we have a nice chat while we have dinner, so we can know each other better?"

"YOSH! LET'S PARTY!" Aqua exclaimed, and the three of them chatted and feasted on a gourmet master class.

Location: Aqua's workplace

A small portal popped into existence. A white-haired girl emerged, followed by a blue one pulling a large, floating crate.

"HAHAHA! Eris! Look at that, I told you I could do it! I'll go back first; these premium drinks need proper storage ASAP!"Aqua said enthusiastically.

"Uhh… Aqua, look over there." Eris pointed at a corner of the crate.

"yes, what's wrong with it?" Aqua inquired.

"I see sand leaking from it," Eris spoke.

Aqua's pupils dilated the moment she heard that. She quickly tore the boards of the crate with her bare hands. "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!"

"WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!" She cried as she witnessed the bottles and crates slowly disintegrating into dust

Eris looking at this was unsure whether to feel pity as this outcome was expected. She let Aqua wallow in her tears and took a deep breath, summoning a different portal next to her.

in a clandestine meeting room, Eris began her report, Her composure wavered facing several powerful beings.

A higher-ranking figure asked, "How did it go?" He offered her a seat and non-alcoholic drinks.

"It went well. I believe he won't oppose your plans for him; rather, I think he'll approve of the matter," Eris reported while using a magic spell to send something to the assembly.

The ball, among the higher-ups, asked, "Are you prepared for this responsibility, considering what Seth could cause?" 

"I'm not certain. Even if I am the goddess of luck and fortune, I fear I am far from ready for what lies ahead," Eris answered meekly.

"Don't worry, many of us support you, just keep a close watch over Seth for now." The ball assured.

Eris nodded in understanding before inquiring, "What about Aqua, is she aware of this?"

"She isn't, however, you know her well enough to know she could be a liability here."

Eris chuckled at the various ways Aqua could complicate this matter.

"Now off you go." With a flash, Eris was returned to where she came from.

Silence descended back after Eris's departure. A different voice said, "Are you certain this is the right course of action?"

"It is."
