The Youkai in the establishment all turned their attention off to Suika as the Oni was steadily approaching you then. She a tiny little red saucer in her hand filled with a clear liquid. That must have been her special Sake.
<span class="mu-i">"She's really gone and made it extra intoxicating..."</span>
<span class="mu-i">"Ohuhuhu! This will be good."</span>
<span class="mu-i">"...Y-You don't see that every day..."</span>
You were left feeling a little singled out as all eyes fell on you and Suika, the bartender staring nervously behind her counter while she cooked, Kasen staring intensely at the saucer, Kagerou covering her mouth, the lady with glasses adjusting her shades as she cackled. Clownpiece did say she had a bad feeling about it... but then you went and decided she needed to eat salad, so she quickly changed her mood and was hoping it made you extra drunk with a sly look on her features.
<span class="mu-i">"Heeere you are~! Heheehee! Just a tiny... teency tiny little bit in an extra small sakazuki, smallest one I could find. Go on, I said you should try it. Don't disappoint us! I rarely ever get to let Humans try my special Sake! I made it extra strong, but in such a little amount, it shouldn't be too much for you... or will it? Hehee!"</span>
Damn, you were hoping to weasel your way out of this somehow. Maybe by swiping it for soup, but Miyoi was still preparing your and Kasen's miso soup, and Clownpiece's salad. She was still chopping some ingredients, and now working a bit slower as she watched the scene unfold. How did Suika fortify her Sake so fast? She must be more than your average drunkard. She's like a super drunkard or something!
Well, you still had a plan. You'd been learning magic from Mima. A Forcefield in specific. You could make one that could cover you of course, but you could also make small ones that could fit between your fingertips, since learning in the initial four days, you had to slowly master expanding your Forcefield from a small size to a big one. You had a plan.
You would go to drink the Sake, and then create a Forcefield in your mouth to contain it by focusing your mana or whatever through your teeth. Like your fingertips, your teeth could also work as a focusing point! It was genius!
So, you reached back for your Hanbo-
