Considerations Before the Meeting

"President, thank you for your hospitality." John said, raising his glass with a smile. The clinking of their beer mugs made a crisp sound.

John was a bit thirsty, despite his immensely strong physique as an Awakener.

After spending so much time in that burning instance, he was indeed a bit parched. The cool beer sliding down his throat made him feel revitalized.

"Ahh..." John exhaled deeply.

He turned to gaze at the beautiful nightscape of Moonlight City, where the faint light of stars and the moon cast a peaceful glow over the city.

Eartha put down her glass. She seemed like the type who didn't have a great tolerance for alcohol but loved drinking anyway.

Despite her beer being two-thirds ice, her cheeks were already slightly flushed and warm.

She also exhaled deeply, "Finally done for the night..."

The strict and restrained facade in Eartha's beautiful eyes completely faded away, replaced by relaxation and ease.
