New, No. 6 (1)
Although he did bother Lordbroke with his drinking.
In fact, Theo was also sincere.
There really is no other way to repair the Dragon Sword.
Besides, given Roadbroke’s current recovery speed, it wasn’t difficult at all.
Should we say that it is the level of cutting fingernails that have grown uncomfortably for humans?
Still, it must be because of the discomfort of having to tear apart one’s body.
‘The problem is that I just can’t seem to stop teasing Roddy.’
Theo had no qualms about jumping up and down and telling Lordbroke that he would be a jerk if he found out about his thoughts.
‘By the way, isn’t it time for the drinking party to end now?’
thud……!
As soon as Theo’s thoughts were over, Bracken suddenly spilled his drink and fell backwards.
-Wow! Lord Bracken won!!
-A stronger drinker than Bracken? Does that make sense!?
Ranke’s inspectors rushed over and supported Bracken.
‘Ugh. I really thought I was going to die.’
Theo also put down his glass quietly and sighed.
I was worried at the time because no matter how much I activated Nirvana, there was a limit.
Then Theo could see Erica and Holkus looking at him like a monster.
“You guys… …woof!”
As Nirvana eased slightly, the hangover hit me in the head.
Theo tried to regain consciousness by gathering his magical powers. His vision was dizzy.
* * *
‘Ugh. I really came back from the dead.’
It was a long time before Theo came to his senses.
After turning the magic power several times to expel the alcohol, I was finally able to pull myself together.
But I still felt sick and my bones were aching.
“Hmph. You have been punished for tormenting your only companion so terribly.”
‘Huh? Are you still here?’
“what?”
‘Shouldn’t you go get the ingredients quickly? The Sea King is sad.’
『Ahhhhhh!』
While Lordbroke clutched his temples and cursed in anger.
A crowd gathered around Theo.

Thanks to that, the team members were lucky enough to survive(?).
“Our Sogaju-nim, I never thought you would be so good at drinking.”
“But seeing that his back is weak, I guess even the iron-man-like Sogaju is a human being?”
“Hehehe! How cute you were when you ran to the bathroom.”
“I was surprised too. I was so drunk I was staggering~ staggering~”
Among them were also members of the Ranke family.
“They say our young lady and the master are friends. They are truly amazing!”
“Wow! Even if our unit leaders line up and fight, they can’t defeat our lord. Wow! I’m amazed!”
“I’m impressed by the muscles you see when you lift the bottle high! Tell me the secret!”
“Wow! He was the best groom that the women of Ranke would fall in love with!”
The sight of them both hitting each other with a double-cross and Theo beating Bracken with alcohol was impressive.
A family that is recognized for its drinking skills. Is it really okay for that to happen?
Suddenly, that thought occurred to me.
‘Euuuuu.’
Theo’s head continued to ache, so instead of answering, all he could do was force a smile.
“Theo.”
But then, out of nowhere, Holkus sat down in front of Theo with a solemn expression on his face.
What on earth are you trying to say?
“Huh?”
“Teach me too.”
what?
Theo blinked, not knowing what was going on.
“How to drink well. Teach me.”
Holcus spoke solemnly, as if he were a warrior going out into battle alone.
Phaaaak!
“Ahhh! Why are you hitting me all of a sudden!!”
Erica hit Holkus hard on the back of the head.
“If you act so serious and confuse people, wouldn’t Theo be surprised? You idiot little brother.”
“Because it’s important to me! It’s so hard to be my father’s drinking buddy every time I go back home! This time, I really thought I was going to die!!”
Bracken’s love of alcohol was always a headache for his children.
If you try to run away, he grabs you by the scruff of the neck and makes up some strange excuse like, “It makes no sense for a warrior not to drink alcohol.”
There were more than a few difficult times when I was forced to drink from a jug instead of a glass.
However, I thought my drinking tolerance had increased a lot after living outside the hometown for over a year, so I tried making a big batch again during this visit to my hometown…
The result was a crushing defeat.
The mountain called father was so high.

But Theo defeated his father.
What a wonderful thing this is!
Holkus’s admiration for Theo now reached a level that pierced the heavens, if not the universe.
He’s handsome, stylish, good at fighting, strong, and he drinks well too!
‘Yes! For sure! My role model is Theo! Theo!’
Holcus had already half given up on becoming Theo’s sword.
I thought I couldn’t even dream of it until I had the skills of Reina Erika.
Instead, I decided to be like him.
Then, someday, I will be able to stand next to you.
And the first goal for that is this.
Drink well!
‘You stupid brother. How did you come to that conclusion?’
Erica looked at her younger sister, who kept coming to strange conclusions, with a sigh, but she didn’t really correct her.
No matter what I say, you won’t listen anyway.
“good.”
Theo nodded, still barely holding onto his ringing head.
“It was good!”
“But there is a condition.”
“Huh? Conditions?”
Holkus tilted his head.
“Come in group number 6.”
“… … !”
In that moment, Holkus’s two eyes caused an earthquake.
“Me, me? Number 6, number 6, number 6?”
“uh.”
“Me, really?”
“huh.”
“Really? Real truth… …!”
Erika’s fist struck the back of Holkus’ head again as he kept asking questions because he couldn’t believe it easily.
Paaaaak!
“Shut up! If you’re going to go in, just go in. Why are you asking so much?”
“But! I’m a scout! Hahaha! I got a scout offer, me!!”
Holkus was so happy that he got up from his seat and started dancing around.
Then, suddenly, he felt sick and went to a corner to vomit it out.
Waaagh!

The sound was absolutely horrible.
“Oh my, you idiot, you idiot.”
Erica shook her head as if she couldn’t understand her younger brother, then looked at Theo with a blank expression.
“I am?”
“I would appreciate it if you could come in.”
“Don’t go.”
“why?”
“I suggested it later than that idiot.”
Erica pointed to Holkers, who was still baking pizza.
Theo laughed.
“Holkus is a commoner. You are treated as a senior. How is it?”
“call!”
Erica grabbed Theo’s hand.
“… … .”
At that moment, Ray looked blankly at Theo.
Theo burst out laughing again.
“Do you want to go together?”
Nod.
After hearing Ray’s answer, Theo no longer had anything to worry about.
With this, we have now secured three members.
“Hmm? We’re watching with both eyes open, so wouldn’t it be a bit much to take it so blatantly?”
At that moment, the 3rd platoon leader, Ken Gorito, approached with a mischievous smile.
The 4th platoon leader, Hanata Ragnar, nodded in agreement.
“The captain said that we can add as many personnel as we need. I think you can ask the captain about the details.”
“Wow, you’re passing this off to the captain?”
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
The attitude that the leaders can show because they know full well that it is a joke, even though they are only grumbling on the outside.
As expected, the other leaders soon started laughing too.
In fact, they did not think that they were losing the members they had raised so lovingly, but rather that they were ‘borrowing’ them.
Even though Theo didn’t know, there was already a belief among the leaders that Theo would be the next captain.
It was like lending them to someone who would one day become ‘his agents’.
“It’s a nice picture.”
At that moment, Bracken suddenly appeared between Theo and the crew.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“I feel like I’ve come such a long way and I’m not really feeling well. I’m not usually like this. It’s a shame, so let’s do our best next time.”

Bracken winked at Theo, his brow furrowing slightly from the hangover.
It seemed like they were trying to sneakily end the match in a draw.
“Hey, you too, my lord! Talk about something reasonable! The amount I drank today is the most I’ve had in nearly ten years!”
“You’re getting older now, so why don’t you stop drinking so much?”
“That’s right, that’s right. Wouldn’t it be better for you guys to stop bothering each other and go into the back room to wash your feet and rest?”
“What the hell are they talking about… … Woof!”
“Look at that. That’s what happens when you insist on being stubborn for no reason.”
“… … Let’s just wait and see, these guys.”
No matter how much Bracken ground his teeth while checking what was inside alongside his son in one corner, the faces of the Ranke family members showed no sign of fear at all.
I thought this was the opportunity to get revenge on all the suffering I had endured because of alcohol.
‘The atmosphere here is very similar to that of Baek Gap-yong’s unit. No, I should say it’s much more free-spirited. But it feels like the power is given to the head of the household much more.’
Even though they were teasing Bracken who was suffering from a hangover, the positions each of the Gasols were in were designed to protect Bracken unconditionally in the event of an emergency.
Eventually, Bracken and Holkus were able to come to their senses only after drinking a large bowl of honey water that Erica had brought them.
“I heard that Winterer’s honey is a specialty. It makes me feel much better.”
Bracken let out a long groan as he set the bowl down on the floor.
After the stench cleared, his facial expression seemed much more relaxed.
“You must be wondering why I came here.”
“Didn’t you say that you were curious about who Erica and Holkus’ close friends were?”
“Yes. That’s true too. If the children are close to the heir, then that’s a ‘line’ for the main family.”
“How did you like that ‘line’?”
“If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have drank with you like this. It feels like I have another child.”
Bracken said, one corner of his mouth curling upward.
“And actually, if you like that ‘line,’ I came here to give you a warning.”
warning?
“Do you happen to know anything about the relationship between Kinkarnon and Gardner?”
For a moment, Theo’s eyes flashed coldly.
And just when I was about to say something.
Pupupupu!
Suddenly, I saw a thick cloud of smoke rising from the distant sky.
A smoke used only by the Baek Gap Yonggi Corps.
It was a signal requesting urgent support.
