"Are you drinking as soon as you wake up, or have you been drinking all night?" Despite Hoyo-seong's playful question, Lee Cheon-sang did not answer.
'He's different from usual.'
Lee Cheon-sang, who usually didn't even bother with side dishes, had set up a proper drinking table today. His appearance had changed significantly too. Unlike his usual open-fronted attire, he was dressed neatly. The royal robe he used to drape over his shoulders was properly worn. A majestic aura like a mountain and a lofty dignity reaching the sky emanated from him. Despite his eight-foot-tall frame, he didn't seem clumsy at all, rather he filled the space with his presence. Perhaps this is what the emperor who conquered the ancient continent's kingdoms and established a great empire would look like.
Hoyo-seong felt dazzled by Lee Cheon-sang's noble demeanor. Watching him quietly, Hoyo-seong spoke with a cheeky grin.
"May I have a drink too?"
"Come here."
Lee Cheon-sang filled the empty glass beside him. Hoyo-seong bowed his head and emptied the glass.
"Is something happening today?"
Lee Cheon-sang nodded.
"A guest is coming."
"A guest?"
The word 'guest' coming from Lee Cheon-sang's mouth was surprising.
"Who is it?"
