'Cocktail Potion' by Transworld Transfer Bartenders

My disciples and I left the lord's mansion long before our usual closing hours.

It's about whether it's still twenty-two o'clock in time. It's time for potion drinkers to flourish in the Easy's bar division.

If you go outside the mansion, winter temperatures will creep in through the gaps in your clothes and freeze your body.

However, the clear air had made the night sky look prettier than usual.

"... moon, that's beautiful"

I shrugged so little, not to anyone.

The twins next to each other ask what my whining means.

"What's wrong, suddenly"

"I admit the winter sky is beautiful"

To both of us, I knew this meaning didn't make sense.

The reaction reminds me that I come from a different world than this one, even if I don't.

Most of all, it wasn't until I came to this world that I knew what the word meant.

"Nothing. I was just wondering what happened."

In my head, what am I supposed to ask Sui, Rai, or Mr. Oyaji? No, I kept thinking about whether I should ask in the first place, as a guru.

Vermouth tips can be found in the Vermut family.

I didn't mean to spill it, but I have to think about the status quo.

I forgot how many times I've tasted the darkness beneath the lights in this world, but it's the biggest of them all.

I was just wondering how I cut the story out.

"... it does seem difficult, doesn't it? That. Gentlemen, I don't really want to talk about your deceased mother. If you can, I'd like to leave you alone."

Phil gave me a straightforward idea of what I was thinking.

Until now, I've never dared ask about their mother. I didn't have to do that, but I was doing well.

And I thought that one day the time would come, naturally, that you might tell me.

But today, I realized.

He said the shortcut to Vermouth might be that 'part you don't want me to touch'.

I saw the sky again, biting my back teeth a little bit.

Doing so, now there's a girl's voice coming from next to the other side.

"But if you don't step in, nothing will start. Or are you going to stop pursuing the 'cocktail' that you so much want?

Following Phil, Sally also accurately described my stray.

If you can, I don't want to follow. I want to keep you calm.

I think so. There's another me at the same time as the Bartender Who Prioritizes People.

At any rate, I want to move on for the cocktail. I want to get to the answer that lies ahead.

I think so "Bartender Prioritizing Alcohol"... No, it's me as "Evening Mist Total Prioritizing Alcohol".

Until now, those two were side by side.

Drinks to prioritize people, people to make that liquor taste good.

The two, for the purpose of entertaining the person in front of you, do not conflict.

But the situation now, it may be the first time it's bumped into each other.

If you prioritize people, maybe they're coming right to the side, Vermouth keeps them away.

If you prioritize Vermouth, even if it's not certain, it hurts the Vermut people.

Of course, until I say I overthink it, but still, I can't help but worry.

Hurt others for your own sake. Am I to affirm that?

"... the moon"

Troubled quote, I looked up at the night sky again.

Probably never going back, I think Earth.

In this world, I think of the Vermut family people who brought themselves to life.

I think of the bonds that have been connected in less than a year.

It could break that, it hurts my heart to think so.

With that in mind, you can study slowly that you will eventually reach Vermouth, and you will come to that conclusion.

Yet.

With that in mind, now the heart returns a slightly moist pain.

Suddenly, I remember one woman.

I remember her words with bright white hair and a terrible looking face.

"The Fifth Class," and "Cocktail." I'll see you later, okay?

When we split up, words engraved strongly on me.

The answer I'm looking for right now, followed by words like road lines.

That word casts a tingle and dissatisfaction at my will that people should be prioritized.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

"Ah. Really, it's the moon"

I didn't ask for answers, I didn't ask for answers, and I was so blurry again.

Since when do I care about people's emotions?

Again, is this the credit for what I once remembered?

"What do you two think?

I temporarily broke the thought of grandeur and asked the two of them.

After they all looked in trouble, they set aside a beat and answered at the same time.

"If you care, you shouldn't touch it"

"If you care, you should ask."

The former is Phil, and the latter is Sally's opinion.

Even here, they were two friendly and opposite.

"Sally, I don't think you should do anything that would scratch people's minds in pranks, even though it doesn't lead to results for sure from what I've heard."

"No, Phil. If you're worried about it, you should just ask. If it's a relationship, it's something like that from the beginning."

The two stare at each other, talking arguments.

There's no guarantee that listening really leads to a vermouth, and listening doesn't necessarily scratch my family's mind.

You don't know the right answer until you've chosen one.

Even more worried about me, Phil and Sally kept staring at each other somehow.

"Sally, I always thought you were a little too close to customers sometimes. Wouldn't there be a better time to take a gentle distance and serve a cup than to get closer than you need to?

"Phil is the one. I always thought I cared too much about my customers and didn't step in enough. That's why they say alcohol is delicious, but it's boring."

The two received each other's words and smiled with Nico. But my cheeks are only slightly cracked.

Chile and the air on the spot is getting tense, I see.

"... Sally. If you were a man, there would have been some unforgivable failure, wouldn't there?

"... Phil. If you were a woman, you'd have a lot of bored, homecoming customers, wouldn't you?

…………

…………

Finally, two people who should have been walking next door stopped and stopped.

"Not really, idiot! Stop fighting! Because if you guys fight, nobody can stop you!

I stopped them in a hurry. They're looking right at me.

Which one do you think is right? That's what I ask with my eyes.

while leaving the one-touch immediate atmosphere intact.

"Neither yet!? Phil is a little more, there are plenty of good times to step on the accelerator! Sally is just allowed to, too, and there are plenty of times when she's offending people! Both of them!

When I stuck around and ran for the real deal, they all got a little teary eyed.

How about this. Until now it was basically a policy of complimenting and stretching, but the change of direction was too steep.

"... so the two of you have to take a good look at each other and learn. Sally should be apprenticing Phil's work, and Phil has a lot to learn from how Sally talks."

"... Yes"

"... Yes"

To my words, they both nodded honestly as they seemed slightly dissatisfied.

This settles one case.

...... hmm? What the hell were you talking about?

"... Anyway, balanced, balanced"

To conclude, we will walk again.

Then the moon in the night sky caught my eye and I remembered what was bothering me.

Should we step in? Should I stop?

Tell the two of you what looks great, and this is it when it comes to you.

I can't believe you bother so much when you're a person, even though you don't care if it's you who gets hurt.

"... family?"

Earlier, the incredible feeling felt in the Lord's house comes back to life.

The feeling of thinking of my family doesn't feel like a pin to me, after all.

Even if you can assume that's what's important, it's not real enough.

So I'm worried about whether it's okay to step into the Vermut family situation.

It bothers me if that's what's allowed.

"... for a cocktail, you'd be right to move on."

"... it's fresh that the general is troubled"

Neighbor Phil leaked that feeling with Blur.

If he turned his gaze to ask his intentions, he smiled a little, hehe.

"Because. You're always confident when you're in business, you make the perfect cocktail for any person, and you ask them anything they have to worry about. I thought I'd come to the conclusion that I wouldn't hurt everyone and ask about the elves."

Phil's light answer made me feel like I was being poked in the face.

I won't hurt you, and I'll listen to you properly.

If you are in business, it is too obvious an answer.

Well, if you can, there's nothing wrong with that, it was a simple answer.

"Sure. It's unusual for the general to be bothered forever. For now, it's better to run, and then keep your head down on each side."

... I have a sense that a lot of impotence has come.

But maybe it is.

Until now, even if that might be a nuisance to all sorts of people, I've done my best.

How far you can step into someone else is the only way to wear it yourself, while you're wounded. I always do business at the bar.

Especially when I was a rookie, it was full of things I didn't know. We bumped into each other, the seniors got mad at me, the customers got mad at me, and that's how I grabbed a little distance.

And again, I just hit something I haven't been through.

Yet, when it came to the Vermut family situation, it was too butt-fucking-ass.

I don't know how much my family weighs, because I had other reasons.

Unconsciously, I feel like I care about the Vermut family more than normal.

A cowardly self who creates a comfortable distance within himself and refuses any more.

"... I might have to walk away from myself instead of just waiting"

Until now, I thought you'd tell me when the time came. But.

Maybe it's a good time for Sui or Mr. Oyaji to walk over to his mother, there, myself.

I nodded and asked them both.

"I ask you not to hurt me as much as possible, and if anything happens, I'll do everything I can to follow you up. And take people and cocktails. That's my choice, isn't it?

The two apprentices nodded happily at my conclusion.

"We'll help you as much as we can."

"You owe me a lot, and I can't help it."

The footsteps after the decision were light.

The pain in my chest that's come back, it stays in, and I look forward.

The night sky I looked up in that state looked much, much brighter than when I first saw it.
