The conversation between Ethan and Gordon finally came to an end.
Five empty beer cans were scattered across the table, rolling slightly whenever someone passed by.
Ethan had no choice but to sling Gordon over his shoulder as he carried him out of the bar.
For Gordon, just two cans of beer were enough to leave him completely wasted.
"Do you need some help?" someone asked from behind them.
Ethan shook his head and thanked the person, assuring them that he could handle Gordon on his own.
The two of them returned to the LionArk headquarters later that night.
The place was alive with light, glowing brightly under strings of decorations and party lamps that shimmered like stars fallen to the ground.
When Ethan reached the front gate, several people noticed their arrival. Smiles spread across their faces as they raised their glasses in greeting.
"A toast for Sir Ethan!"
"Cheers!"
