Surprisingly, the person who came to Sam and Levi was a beautiful woman in a blue dress. She had brown hair and black enchanting eyes.
Sam had seen that this lady had been in the group that followed the first prince.
The Lady spoke " Hi I am Laurel, You must be the famous Barbarian Dror.... hah ... is this the famous Captain's bond.... you are really drinking it, wow..."
Sam had a bad premonition after hearing the lady's word, the entire hall was silent when the words came out the ladies mouth. Then the chatter became louder than before.
" That is the barbarian who destroyed an entire squad and escaped commander Claudius... he doesn't look much..."
" shut up he can hear us no matter how much you reduce your voice... so don't spout nonsense.."
"The guy is really a barbarian, who else would drink something so precious as the Captain's Bond... he doesn't even value the history bonded with it...."
different groups started discussing different things about Sam.
Sam didn't care much at first but when he heard more about the Captains Bond his face started turning blue. The reason was simple: someone had mentioned that the Captains bond was a well known Antique with a famous history and its price was determined easily above 50,000 Ken.
All of a sudden Sam looked at the second glass that he had poured for Levi.
He wanted to take it back and pour it back into the bottle, then seal it forever.
he was thinking more in the lines of, maybe the bottle could still be sold for half the price.
Levi as if knowing what was on Sam's mind gave a snort, took the glass and emptied it quickly.
Sam felt like his heart was broken.
Sam sent a spiritual sense message to Levi " Fu..k you Levi, why didn't you tell me earlier.... and you emptied that glass..."
Levi " you were the one who poured it, why wouldn't I dare to empty it... and you already broke the seal on the bottle which reduced its original value by at least 60 to 70%.... Even Misers have their bad day...haha..."
When he was still cursing inside Sam heard the sweet voice again.
" Can I also have a glass of the Captains bond..."
There was another reason why Sam liked Rum and it was also the main reason why rum always tasted better in his mouth.
The reason was that rum was much cheaper compared to other drinks as it was a commoner's drink. When he heard the innocent words of Laurel again for some reason Sam wanted to strangle her.
Sam thought " If only this witch had not publicly announced that it was the famous Captains bond, maybe I could have filled it with some other rum and reseal it with the help of some forger. Then sell it at a high price... now that everyone knows I can't do anything.... and she wants a glass from it now... "
Sam's hand moved lightning fast, taking back the bottle and glass that he had already poured. into his space ring . Now it was the woman who was flustered.
Sam " What are you saying beautiful young miss, rum is a drink for boorish and low class people ... how can an elegant young lady like you drink something like that... come I will get you that legacy thing... "
Levi had already known how much of a miser Sam was. But he never thought that Sam would behave like this with a beauty and more than that Levi had a feeling that he had heard this name Laurel somewhere before.
The crowd got another topic to discuss, the barbarian was an extremely stingy and ungentlemanly person.
The Raimond guy was hiding from Sam after he had heard that he was the barbarian, But he started gaining his courage back as he saw Sam's behavior.
He thought maybe this guy was not so powerful as the rumors suggested or maybe he had some life saving treasure that helped him escape from the dangerous situation and he must have been lucky and some accident occurred which ended up in the destruction of the Fighter spacecraft squad.
Raimond interrupted Sam's action " barbarians are barbarians after all, they don't have any manners and don't know how to treat a lady... Lady laurel let me get you a fine drink..."
Sam was surprised that this guy had poked out again, but he didn't mind as this idiot was going to take care of this problem called Laurel for him.
So he gladly accepted it.
But Laurel was in no mood, she has always been treated as a queen by everyone in the base and this barbarian dared to be so stinky with her.
But before she could speak up another dignified voice was heard.
" You must be Dror, It is good to have you here ... care to join me for a drink..."
Everyone turned to see that it was the first prince who had spoken this time as he approached Sam.
Raimond got out of the way, so did Laurel unwillingly with a pout.
Sam didn't know how to deal with this prince, he wanted to run away from this place filled with delusional people who were over optimistic without the strength to back it up.
But since he had accepted the invitation and arrived he couldn't just leave like that as it would be disrespectful, and he was currently staying under the roof of the rebels for the time being.
It was also Sam's policy that " if I could make one less enemy, it is far better than making an extra friend..... and if I really did make an enemy, I will kill the enemy first before the enemy makes a move..."
