“Sharing A Tailored Tea”


[Wizards’ Manor—Dining Hall]


Akira: (I should take my time enjoying my tea; Mitile and Figaro kindly steeped it for me after all… But I didn’t expect it to have such an intense colour…)


…Oh, Oz! Hi there!


Oz: Good afternoon, Sage.


… …


Akira: (Hm? What is he staring at? …Oh, of course.)


Don’t mind me, I was feeling under the weather lately so Mitile and Figaro took it upon themselves to make some tea. I’ve heard it’s very effective to relieve fatigue.


Oz: … …That is not what tea should look like.


Akira: I, I’m aware it has a strange colour, but I’m sure it’s normal for something steeped with medicinal herbs! I can concede that it may be just a touch bitter…


But that’s exactly what will make one feel better afterwards! At least that’s what they’ve told me. Would you like to share some with me?


Oz: …Very well.


Akira: Awesome! Let me pour you a cup.


Err, well… Bottoms up, I guess.


Oz: Cheers…


Akira: (Gulps) …


Eurk…! So bitter! It’s vile!!!


(Gah, bitterness has never, ever shot electricity through my body like that… I wonder how Oz is holding up…)



Oz: … …


Akira: (He didn’t even flinch!?)


O, Oz… Wasn’t your tea too bitter to drink…?


Oz: I don’t mind it.


…I have tried Figaro’s handmade medicine before: it was a concoction that nearly killed the twins. This tea is palatable in comparison.


Akira: (His tolerance is in a whole different league…!)
