Chapter 114: Drunkard on the Floor!
In Zorn’s heart, this was something that he had always been proud of. Every time he discussed the merits of the past, he would show it off whenever he could.
However, after he finished speaking, he did not expect Lorne to not exclaim in surprise. Instead, what greeted him was Lorne’s slightly puzzled expression.
“Qiang, why is the version I heard different from yours?”
“The reason why Zorn was able to earn the security clearance back then was that he found a group of traditional women from who knows where.
“Then, he led a group of soldiers dressed in women’s clothing to blend in and pretend to be someone who wanted to pass by. That was how he managed to trick the checkpoint area.
“I don’t know if this is true. By the way, you weren’t in there, were you?”
When Zorn heard this, he turned pale with fright and his entire body shivered.
D*mn, how did Lorne know about such a secret matter so easily?
Could it really be as he said, that this information had been spread to everyone?
It was over. Zorn’s reputation was completely over and long gone.
He, Zorn, had really done this before. All those years when he had fought for the Lolan Empire, he had used many similar methods.
He had either disguised himself as the enemy’s reinforcements or as a passing merchant. The most outrageous method was to disguise himself as a woman to attract the enemy to open the gates.
In any case, he did not feel any psychological pressure at all using these questionable fighting methods. As the saying went, there was no limit to deception in war. As long as he could win, he would not be afraid of anything.
That was why Zorn had obtained the title of the Chaotic Demon King. Not only was it due to his brute strength, but it was also due to the fact that he did not have many scruples in using these methods.
However, even if he used them, it would not sound good if word got out. His glorious image as a general will be destroyed in an instant?
Therefore, Zorn shook his head violently and said with an unusually firm tone, “Impossible, this has never happened before! I, Qiang, was a vanguard soldier at that time. If there was such a thing, I would definitely be the first to know!
“You must have heard it from some random tavern. It’s all nonsense. I think it’s those storytellers made it up in order to attract more attention.”
Lorne did not care whether the Zorn they were talking about was a gangster leader or an unrivaled hero. His goal was just to tease the new guy.
Therefore, Lorne picked up the wine and filled yet another full drink.
“Alright, alright. If you drink three more bowls, I’ll believe you.
“Otherwise, tomorrow I’ll walk through the streets and tell people that Zorn specializes in hooligan tactics.
“I wonder what the rumored strong and unrivaled general will look like when he disguises himself among a group of women.
“If only I was there… Otherwise, I would have seen him with my own eyes. Maybe I could have drawn him.”
When Lorne said this, Zorn immediately shuddered.
This was too vicious. He could not help but tremble when he heard it.
Back then, in order to trick them into opening the city gates, he did not care about anything else. Although, he had to remember that image for the rest of his life. It was really unbearable.
Thinking of this, Zorn quickly cupped his hands to Lorne.
“D*mn, Lorne, please go easy on me. I’ll drink these three drinks of wine in honor of that!”
As he spoke, he picked up the drink on the table and downed it in one gulp. Zorn drank three large gulps of this kind of white wine at an extremely fast speed. After he burped, he felt a little drowsy.
If he was still slightly sober just now, this time, he would not even be able to open his eyes. However, Lorne did not stop. He poured another bowl for Zorn. “Qiang, are you drunk? If you’re drunk, I’ll find a few people to send you back.”
Zorn shook his head a few times in confusion.
“Impossible! I’m very sober right now. With this little wine, I’d never get drunk!”
After saying that, Lorne seemed to be a little unconvinced so Zorn directly drank another cup of wine.
The moment the cup of wine fell, Zorn directly lost his balance and sat down on the ground from his chair. Then, he rolled a few times and directly lay down on the ground without getting up. In a few seconds, he actually began to snore.
In an instant, Kyle, who was beside him, directly laughed out loud, not caring about his image at all. He had been holding back his laughter the whole time they bickered, now it was let loose.
Zorn, the Demon King, finally met someone who could teach him a lesson. He had always been a troublemaker in the past, but this time, he was finally humbled.
With just this matter alone, he, Kyle, could return to the palace and talk to those important ministers in the coult for an entire day.
At first, he thought that by bringing this old man here, he would be able to compete with Lorne on the same stage and compete with each other to see who was better.
In the end, it became a completely one-sided and overwhelming situation. The Demon King could not fight back in front of Lorne.
In just a few seconds, he was wasted.
On the other hand, Lorne did not even drink a few mouthfuls of wine. He only persuaded Zorn to drink. After holding his stomach and laughing for a while, Kyle supported himself on the table and stood up.
“Lorne, is this boorish man alright?”
Lorne shook his head and replied.
“Although my wine is strong, it won’t harm my body. It’s only this old man who drank too much. Otherwise, I think he would not have drunk a few more bowls.” Lorne stood up before speaking again. “Charles, wait here for a while.”
Then, he ran to the counter and rummaged through it. He found a scroll of drawing paper and a brush. Then, he spread it on the clean table next to him and began to draw the picture of Zorn.
Lorne had some experience with this style of painting. This was also within the scope of his research. Therefore, after about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, an image of a drunkard sleeping on the floor appeared on the paper.
After drawing this picture, Lorne even mentioned a line of words on the side — a gift to the strong.
Lorne even patted Kyle’s hand.
“The seal you helped me stamp on that word the last time, take it out and lend it to me. I want to stamp one on this too.”
Kyle was used to this now, so he quickly took out the seal. Then, a big word was stamped on the inscription.
Lorne waited for the ink to dry, then rolled up the painting and gave it to Kyle.
“Remember to give this painting to him for me later. Also, praise him for me.
“Just say that he can hold his liquor well, but it’s a pity that he was the one who went out lying down today.”
Kyle was a little happy with this. He rolled up the painting properly and put it aside.
The two of them sat back at the table while Zorn was asleep on the floor..
