◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
As expected of a banquet personally prepared by the Popes, it was so amazing that words couldn’t describe it.
The banquet hall was so large that you could fit an entire one-story house in it, and it had huge tables lined up with hundreds, or even thousands, of different kinds of food.
Even if we only took one bite of each dish, it seemed like we would be full before we could taste everything.
It was a struggle to even count how many dishes there were on a single table.
Even the veteran Knight Commanders who had experienced so much were left speechless at the sheer scale of it.
I wondered how they could have prepared such a massive banquet in just a few days.
We were completely overwhelmed by the sheer size of it, and it wasn’t until the Popes took our hands and led us inside that we were able to take our first steps.
Thankfully, the tense atmosphere didn’t last long.
As we started drinking, Claudia, a little tipsy and loosened up, was the first to freely walk around the banquet hall.
The next to move were Lize and I, followed by Erica and Iris.
Iris sighed and followed Claudia, and Erica just munched on sweets with sparkling eyes.
After a while, we settled into a comfortable atmosphere.
Floretta was stuck to my side with a bright smile on her face, and Luna, although expressionless, was right there with her.
Lize was the only one who seemed bothered by this.
Unable to tell the Popes to back off, she was just suffering in silence.
I could feel her grip on my arm tightening.
I couldn’t exactly push the Popes away, so I just tried to put a little distance between us, but Floretta and Luna didn’t seem to care and stayed glued to my side.
Time continued to flow.
“It should be about time to offer our esteemed guests… that.”
As complete darkness enveloped the stained-glass windows, Luna called us together, saying that she had something to give us.
All of the Knight Commanders were slightly drunk.
Well, everyone except Claudia.
She had definitely drunk the most, but she was the most sober one there.
Her face wasn’t even red.
“Bring it forth.”
As soon as Luna clapped her hands, the battle nuns who had been waiting nearby prostrated themselves before her, then quickly rushed off somewhere.
We watched them in confusion.
What could they be bringing that required such a display?
We soon found out.
Twelve nuns carefully walked towards us, each one struggling to carry a giant oak barrel.
Claudia’s eyes sparkled.
I had to wonder if she was even human, getting so excited over a barrel of alcohol right after she had just been drinking.
“Do you perhaps know what this is?”
“I’m not sure… Is it alcohol?”
“A keen observation. However, this is no ordinary drink.”
The nuns stood still, holding the barrel.
Luna went over to the tap at the bottom of the barrel and placed a small glass under it.
She turned the tap.
A liquid that looked like a mix of gold and silver flowed into the glass.
It didn’t take long for the glass to fill up.
Luna closed the tap and handed the glass to Floretta.
A golden divine power enveloped the glass.
The liquid in the glass seemed both sacred and wondrous as it shimmered under the light of the chandeliers.
“In the Holy Kingdom, we call this drink ‘Moon’s Kiss.’ The layer on top is known as ‘Radiant Sun.’”
“Moon’s Kiss… you say?”
Erica’s red eyes widened as she stared at the glass.
She seemed to know what it was.
“Indeed. Have you heard of it?”
“I’ve only heard that it’s so precious and rare that even money can’t buy it. They say only faith can buy it.”
“Precisely.”
Luna nodded.
“Only the Pope of the Sun, the Pope of the Moon, the Inquisitor of the Sun, and the Inquisitor of the Moon are allowed to drink this. For anyone else to taste it, they must be personally chosen by the Popes on the Holy Birth Day, and even then, they only get a few drops.”
“And they say that even a few drops are enough to keep you drunk until the next day.”
“You are well-informed, honored guest.”
Claudia beamed at Luna’s compliment.
Erica quickly looked away, mumbling that she had just read about it in a book.
I didn’t know anything about this drink either, it was an item that had never appeared in the game.
Moon’s Kiss with Radiant Sun… I had never even heard of it before.
The five of us, myself included, were all interested in the drink, but Claudia’s reaction was on another level.
She seemed incredibly curious about this rare and potent alcohol.
“It requires hundreds of cycles to concentrate pure divinity into this form, and we are the only ones who can handle such potent divinity, that’s why we can only make enough to fill less than three bottles of wine per year. We would like to offer a glass of this to each of you.”
Luna picked up another glass and placed it under the tap.
The golden liquid flowed into the glass, and a golden divine power covered the glass.
She repeated the process until there were five glasses, each one covered in a golden light, on a tray.
Claudia giggled.
She looked ecstatic.
Lize and Erica also had stars in their eyes.
Only Iris had her usual indifferent expression.
Luna beckoned a nun over.
The nun approached the tray, her eyes filled with tears.
She carefully lifted the tray with both hands as the other nuns looked at her with envy.
“But are you sure you can handle it?”
“……What do you mean?”
Floretta picked up a glass and chuckled.
“Even a single drop of Moon’s Kiss is enough to overwhelm a person’s mind and drive them to madness, the amount in that glass… I doubt anyone but us could handle it. So I ask again, are you certain you can handle it?”
Her green eyes scanned us carefully as if testing us.
We all glanced at each other.
Claudia, of course, looked like she didn’t have a worry in the world.
The other Knight Commanders didn’t seem scared either.
“It’s alright, Your Holiness. We can handle our alcohol,” Claudia said confidently.
“Let me rephrase then, honored guest. Are you absolutely certain you can handle what lies within that glass?”
“Of course. Even if I can’t, I won’t regret having the chance to taste it.”
Floretta smiled gently at Claudia’s confident answer and held out the glass.
Claudia took it and examined the liquid inside.
The glass itself was tiny.
It was about the size of my pinky finger.
However, if what they were saying about it making you black out after a few sips was true, then who knew when she would wake up after drinking the whole thing.
“Thank you, Your Holiness.”
Claudia thanked Floretta, then downed the drink in one go.
She placed the empty glass down and clutched her throat and chest, as if trying to figure out where her esophagus was.
Then, she turned to us, her face pale.
“Damn, that’s stron—”
Then, she collapsed.
Lize and Erica gasped in shock.
Claudia was the type of person who could drink beer by the barrel and not even get a little red in the face, and she was knocked out by a single glass?
“I did ask if you were sure you could handle it.”
Thankfully, the battle nuns were quick to react and caught her before she could hit the ground.
Her face was quickly turning bright red.
One of the nuns took the empty glass and placed it on the tray.
Luna and Floretta turned their attention back to us.
It felt like they were asking, “Well?”
“What will the rest of you do?”
Luna picked up another glass, and Floretta smiled.
“You may refuse. It’s said that those from the Empire have lower tolerances than those of us raised in the Holy Kingdom. We understand completely.”
‘…….’
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
As soon as I felt myself regaining consciousness, I instinctively clutched my head.
My head was pounding.
My memories were fuzzy up until the point where I drank the drink that Floretta and Luna had emphasized was “specially” made.
I tried to remember what had happened.
After Floretta’s explanation, all of the Knight Commanders, as if trying to prove a point, drank the Moon’s Kiss… and collapsed one after another and I was the last one to drink.
I groaned and held my head, and then I felt something soft and warm enveloping it.
Then, I felt something equally soft and warm against my ears.
“Are you alright?”
I heard a calm voice coming from above, and the fog in my head started to clear up.
I tried to open my heavy eyelids, but I couldn’t.
Something warm and soft brushed against my eyelids.
It felt like a finger.
A long, thin finger was pressing down on each of my eyelids, massaging them.
Then, it was gone.
When I opened my eyes, my vision was clearer than before.
I looked up.
“I’m glad you’ve come to,”
Luna was looking down at me.
“……Luna?”
“Yes, it is I, Luna. You were asleep for quite some time. It’s a relief that you are finally awake.”
“For quite some time……? Wait, what’s going on……?”
I tried to sit up, but Luna pushed down on my shoulders, and I sank back down.
I felt that soft warmth at the back of my head again.
I was sitting on a large sofa.
I could see something round and pale in my peripheral vision.
I realized that this must be what I was feeling against my head.
“Luna, what’s behind my he……”
I stopped talking.
I had figured out what was behind my head.
It was large, round, soft, and there were two of them.
It was at the perfect height for someone sitting down.
My head was buried between Luna’s breasts.
She was standing behind the sofa, my head resting in the valley of her cleavage, my face surrounded by the warmth of her chest.
She was looking down at me.
The sweet scent that I had been smelling this whole time… it was hers.
“What are you—”
“Shhh. Please remain still, honored guest, my sister is currently in the middle of serving you.”
I stopped as soon as I heard the word “serving,” and then I felt a jolt of pleasure in my lower half.
I looked down.
“Hmm… Mhn…”
A woman with long, flowing golden hair had her face buried between my legs, her head bobbing up and down.
