The golden eyes of the drunken man turn black, and his red hair turns black. With a sigh, his large frame shrinks to the point where he can just barely fit within human limits. Yes, I was visibly weakened.

No, there may be none, but I wonder if the seal here is for the nine tails or for the leaning country. If it is for the Nine Tails, my [leaning country] will be leaked, and if it is for the leaning country, won't it exceed the capacity of the seal?

　I think that if [title] is the target of the seal of [inclination], [title] is the target. I don't understand why there is a restriction on [skill]. Is the [inclination] of the nine tails usable as a skill?　Is it possible that they have various skills such as "profession [leaning country]"? I have a lot of disturbing skills too, but I can pretend not to see them.

He handed me a large vermilion cup, which of course contained sake. I look at the banquet snacks with a sidelong glance. I'd like to say that I'm not a drinker, but if I don't drink this, what comes next is something I don't know what it is.

　Does it look good?　The object that was bubbling and bubbling and bubbling and bubbling and bubbling and bubbling and bubbling and bubbling with deep green steam now looks like a fresh peach or a well-cooked plump and swollen baby ayu fish. It seems that the "Eye of Verus" has been activated unknowingly.

　I realized that the reason the sake-drinker had moved with me in his arms was to give the other demons no chance to call me, so I accepted the large sake cup and drank it all in one go. Thanks to my [drunkenness tolerance], I don't mind chugging it or drinking it through a straw, but it seems to burn my throat, perhaps because I'm not used to it.

I first thought of hi-shu (fire wine), which would be a strong liquor for an ogre, but then I thought that hi-shu (beer) would not be appropriate for a wide-mouthed sake cup, so I poured rum into the cup.

　I poured rum, which is a strong flavored dark rum made for sweets and cocktails. Kikuhime became a little more cheerful and licked the rum happily.

　I poured a large sake cup full of the rum, thinking that the way Kikuhime drank it was probably the right way to drink it.

　The rum is made from a <, which is as thick as my thumb, a little reddish in color, and only as big as my shoulder. Unlike the image of sugar cane in the real world, it is much smaller. However, the amount of sugar that can be obtained from them belies their size, so there is plenty of room to make sake.

They are tricky demons, but I don't feel fear or avoidance. Perhaps I should feel them, but the dancing autumn leaves were beautiful and the meeting with the sake-drinker was enjoyable.

　We set down the barrels of lowered alcohol and the feast begins again. Some of the men in short kimonos were playing music, and small ogres with eyes that stood out like a pair of hands, and other things that made us cringe when we saw them near us, were enjoying the sake as they snatched it from the barrels.

I thought he was one of those drunks who beat people up when they get drunk, but it turned out that he sometimes dispelled the hairy little imps who tried to climb up on me or followed me around by my hair. It doesn't seem to be a good thing for people to be possessed by these demons, who are so thin on the ground. Eventually, the kobolds gave up and stopped approaching.

The drunkard surprised me, but an eye for an eye is the Hammurabi Code. He used [bouchuu-jutsu] though he didn't suck the spirit.
