The Day after the Fest

I awoke in a small hut, my head was about to burst and as I tried to raise my body I felt a weight on my chest with a dark foresight I looked down and saw both Neria and Bellia resting on my naked breast

"Oh shit what happened yesterday" I wondered using my free right hand and held my head

While Neria embarrassed my left arm which I couldn´t move even for a bit Bellia used me as a body pillow

I tried to somehow get free and even though I didn´t get how I actually did it but I got free and put my clothes on in a couple of seconds

As I left the hut Basul already awaited me

"Congrats for your graduation lad," he said with a smile as if he was a father who´s son just won a tournament

"What happened after they questioned me?" I asked regarding the missing part in my memories but I would regret asking if looked at it from a retrospective

As it seemed I was drunk enough to say that I liked both of them though I can´t even think of how I would even say something like this

what followed was according to Basul one of the most incredible catfights he ever saw and in the end, he claimed to have solved the conflict by saying that they shouldn´t fight over a man if they can share him

"This didn´t actually happen did it?" I asked him with cold eyes but he laughed and if a look was capable of killing Basul would surely be dead right now

"Of course it happened right after I arranged a drinking contest for the two ladies and made them totally drunk they accepted my reasoning," Basul said raising his nose high and pumping his chest as if he reported of a great achievement

"You got Neria to participate in a drinking contest?" I asked for the unfamiliar situation since Neria claimed them to be uncivilized

"Hey leave the ladies to me and I talk them to do such things," he said still proud of his deed and I tried to imagine this situation but it was far too absurd for my fantasy

"Are you actually a wanted criminal?" I asked him but he shook his head and had a smirk on his face

"No I am just an adventurer of the B-Class," he said and continued his tale and I wished to sink into the ground as I heard it

After they had consumed an incredible amount of alcohol Basul took the drunk me in the hut and lead the girls into it

What followed or rather what was about to follow was how loud according to him it got in the hut but I interrupted him by giving him an uppercut followed by a series of punched in his stomach which sent him into the dreamlands and made him vomit blood before he ultimately passed out

"Oh the grand conquerer" Galion came after he heard the commotion and immediately stopped as he saw Basuls state and did so as if nothing happened and was about to turn around as I stopped him

"Please tell me that all he said didn´t happen," I asked our priest for absolution of my bad feeling

"I am deeply sorry but in this case, there is no way of hiding it so forgive me to say it but everything he said actually happened," Galion said and lowered his head while I felt nauseous and vomited into a near-empty barrel filled with water

"But that you could get drunk actually wonders me," Galion remarked and after I got my sense of balance back I walked a bit

"I am truly interested in what this was," I said and searched for another person but nearly the entire village with the exception of the young children was in a comatose state and so my information sources were knocked out

"Pallul Berry wine" a girls voice spoke from behind it was ghoul woman whose name I didn´t know but I was sure that I wouldn´t remember it anyways in my state

"What kind of Berries?" I asked and turned to the girl which showed me a cheeky smile

"Pallul Berries. We get them from monster plants and usually drow them in entire water barrels to not get poisoned by them I was actually wondering on how high you Resistance Skill must be that you could drink our hardest mix in this amount" the girl wondered while I wondered how such a strong berry could exist

"Ok thanks," I said and went further on my way

"Oh how was your first time if I can ask you" the girl shouted after me and I simply left her with the question unanswered 'How should I know if I was totally drunk' I screamed in my head and secretly began to hope that both Neria and Bellia would keep sleeping for the rest of my life

As I walked my round around the village and returned to the hut without noticing and while I looked at the slowly up standing Basul who whipped the blood he vomited earlier from his mouth a half-sleeping Neria looked out of the hut and I did a U-turn but was stopped by a voice

"You better take responsibility for me from now on," Neria still half asleep said and even though she was in this state and I could hear in her voice how awkward she felt I could feel how serious her words were 'Just what on earth happened last night exactly?! Please, someone, tell me!!!' I once again screamed in my mind and as if to give me the last shot Bellia came out with a satisfied smile

"I finally did it..." she said and made a victory sign with her hands and I simply held my head wishing to rewind time but well this is a feat even Gods consider difficult so what should I do about it...

I tried to slowly leave the place but Basul made use of my current condition and gave me a punch into the stomach as his revenge

"Lad it was not nice to interrupt me while I have my fun," Basul said while I tried to get a hold on myself

"I simply couldn´t stand your wording anymore," I said as an excuse and I could hear Neria question, Galion, about our conversation as

"EHHH?! He heard it all?!" Neria shouted and my ears began to hurt

"Sadly so this fool tried to make use of this in order to..." Galion couldn´t even finish his sentence as Neria shout a Spell at Basul which send him flying through the entire village

"What the hell...?" I murmured and slowly turned around to see the enraged eyes of Neria

"Forget what he said you understand me!" she ordered me and I tilted my head

"What should I forget?" I asked in my confusion since I really didn´t know but Neria misunderstood me

"Good keep it like that," she said and her eyes showed that she was satisfied with my reaction

"No, I mean it as I said it what should I forget?" I dug deeper and Bellia sneaked right next to me and whispered something in my ear

"You know she was actually still sober in this entire situation and truly enjoyed it" as Bellia whispered this into my ear my mind went blank for a second and I could feel how my entire face turned red

"Eh... seriously Neria is this..." I turned to her but as I looked into her direction she stood right before me and all I could see where her eyes

"Forget what she said understood?" she said in a tone as monotone as if it was the embodiment of the word but I could sense something in her eyes which made my instincts run wild and told me to either run away or submit I went for the latter option

"Understood," I said while saluting and started wondering since when she could force me like this but I had no interest to anger her more than she actually was and turned to Galion as if nothing happened

"Galion, could you please call Theo and Nion? Also please take this fool to the training ground I want to determine each strength" I said while ignoring Nerias stare and Galion nodded and rushed away

"You want to determine their strength?" Bellia asked curiously and I nodded

"Yep if we cooperate it is necessary to know each other's strengths and weaknesses," I said and walked to the Training ground followed by Neria and Bellia
