Chapter 36 - Goading Jin Hennessy  

"Ok, we'll leave here." Said Dam Son suddenly. His classmates were surprised by his compliance to retreat. "Come on you two, let us go." As he prepared to leave, Dam Son secretly took out a special Noun Script from within his inner garment and pretended to have dropped it. "Oh, no! It slipped!"

"Huh?" Sugar Bun caught on to Dam Son's theatrics and assisted him. "Hey, be careful with that. How could you let such a precious item slip away from you? Quickly, retrieve it!"

"Right!" Dam Son gave chase to the Noun Script which coincidentally landed near Jin Hennessy's feet. "Old mister, could you catch that paper for me. The wind up here is really strong."

"Fhm…" Jin Hennessy scoffed at Dam Son's ridiculous clumsiness. "You fool. Can't even keep hold of a simple Noun Script." He grasped the Noun Script with his toes, moreover, flipped it into his hand. "Take it and leave, brat... Huh?"

As he handed the Noun Script over to Dam Son, Jin Hennessy glimpsed the contents that were written on it and froze. He held tightly onto the Noun Script, refusing to let it go.

"Hey, mister what's wrong? Have you caught a stroke?" Dam Son forcibly tried taking the Noun Script from Jin Hennessy but found it to be a difficult task. "Why aren't you letting go?"

"Brat, what is this?" Jin Hennessy's elated eyes were plastered onto a specific part of the Noun Script which highlighted its stored contents. It stated that approximately 45 types of highbred bottles of wine were being stored inside. Just by these letters alone, Jin Hennessy felt an unquenchable thirst overcome him. Desirous drools fell from all corners of his mouth.

"Mister, please give that back to me. It's mine." Dam Son used some of his Dark-Human strength to take back the Noun Script, but soon after, Jin Hennessy used his clutching toes to grasp it again.

"I will return this after I've finished checking its contents." No longer being able to contain his thirst for fine liquor, Jin Hennessy activated the properties of the beckoning Noun Script.

Various battles of wine began pouring into the open. Due to their prior compressed state, they shot above intensely. If they fell as they were, they would have definitely broken. To prevent these numbers of liquor from being shattered, Jin Hennessy adroitly operated his extended limbs to swiftly catch all of the scattered bottles of wine and stacked them neatly atop each other.

"Woah! That would have been a big waste if either of them had split." Jin Hennessy wiped away worried sweat from his brows. Afterwards, he grabbed one of the wine bottles from atop the pile, moreover, directed it towards his mouth to taste its content. However, before he could taste a drop of intoxicating liquid, he was stopped by a sudden shout.

"Hey! What do you think you are doing, mister? All these wines belong to us. You can't just drink them as you wish. What you're doing is considered stealing. Gimme that." Dam Son hurriedly swiped away the effervescent liquor from entering Jin Hennessy's thirsting mouth. "And these as well." He also took away the other wine bottles by storing them back inside the Noun Script.

"Huh, what the hell do you think you are doing brat?" The distorted air which permeated Jin Hennessy as he spoke showed just how livid his temperament had become. He opted to berate Dam Son for not allowing him the chance to taste fine liquor.

"What do you mean by what I'm doing? I'm taking back what belongs to us." Dam Son re-tucked the Noun Script into his garment and gathered his classmates to form a retreat. "Let's get off this mountain before it gets dark. When we're back at the Tower of Residence we can share all this fine liquor with our friends."

"Right." Xuan Li and Sugar Bun agreed right away with Dam Son's ruse. They gave Jin Hennessy their backs as their feet motioned towards the flight of stairs present at the exit.

"Hold it!" Jin Hennessy hurriedly called out to the fleeing trio. He couldn't just let them leave like that after seeing the load of liquor they had stored on them. His shed was running dry of alcoholic stock and he was in desperate need of intoxicating juices to abolish his increasing thirst.

"Hold it right there!" Jin Hennessy hopped into the air; landed directly in front of Dam Son. "What did you say you were going to do with them liquor?"

"I don't see how that concerns you, mister. Who I share my liquor with is none of your business."

"What! You're not going to waste such elegant liquor on those young delinquents residing inside the Tower of Residence are you?"

"Yes, we're going to drink until our tummies are bloated."

"You fools!" Hearing this, almost drove a stake into Jin Hennessy's heart. "Those inexperienced youngsters can't possibly handle the kick of these liquor. Tell you what…" He put on an imploring face and continued. "Why don't you leave those bottles of wine with me? I'll make sure that they are properly taken care of. What do you say, eh?"

Dam Son thought over Jin Hennessy's proposal with his classmates then answered, "That doesn't sound so bad. We weren't feeling that thirsty anyway…"

"Right, right." Jin Hennessy was happy to hear this.

"But…" Dam Son took out the Noun Script once more, showing it off to the old drunkard. "I can't just hand all these 45 bottles to you for free. We will need equivalent compensation."

"Huh, what do you have in mind?" Jin Hennessy didn't like where this conversation was going.

"How about you…" During his brief pause, Dam Son gave Xuan Li and Sugar Bun an understandable glance. "How about you accept the three of us as your disciples?"

"What utter nonsense!" Jin Hennessy almost popped a head vein. "I knew you would try something this sneaky you brat. Do you think that it is easy to goad the great Jin Hennessy with that mediocre value of liquor? Get your measly backsides off my mountain this instant!"

"Ok, we're going and we'll also be taking these with us."

"What?"

Xuan Li and Sugar Bun dipped into their apparel simultaneously; both of them took out an extra Noun Script which they quickly tuck back inside.

"Huh? You two also have…?" Jin Hennessy hadn't expected that Dam Son's followers also had similar Noun Scripts. Now he started to wonder just how much liquor they had stored all together. Thirsting drools began trickling down his chin again.

"We're going now. Thank you for showing me mercy, esteemed elder." The moment Xuan Li stepped by Jin Hennessy, he spotted a strange expression sitting on his face and thought to himself, 'Is this what the Dark-human had planned? I think it might actually be working.'

Sugar Bun thought, 'Will he accept the bait now or not?'

'He has to. This elder can't refuse these many bottles of wine. He's infatuated with alcohol.' Dam Son received this solid piece of information from his trusted Papyrus so it had to be correct.

The 3 students, in particular, continued towards the exit, pretending to leave while secretly waiting for Jin Hennessy to call them back. As expected, Jin Hennessy hopped before them again, looking slightly miffed.

"Alright, I'll accept your proposal in return that you frequently supply me with all sorts of tasty liquor."

"Really?" After hearing this, a joyous expression washed over the students' faces. They elatedly dropped to their knees with their backs bent low, saying in unison: "We thank elder for accepting us as his disciples!"

"Yes, yes, whatever. Hurry up and give me what is mine!" Jin Hennessy couldn't wait any longer. His tongue was itching to taste some fine liquor.

"Here you go, master." The students handed over all the liquor Noun Scripts they had to their new Word Fu teacher.

Jin Hennessy activated all 3 Noun Scripts simultaneously! Myriads of fine liquor started gracing his mountain peak. "Yes! Come to grandpa!" He lost control of his urges.

With only 2 strokes of his big toe, Jin Hennessy blasted the caps off 4 bottles of wine! Furthermore, he puffed out his chest, gathered some Natural Verb Force around his lungs area then began sucking in all of the liquid contained within the open bottles. Jin Hennessy's watery mouth became swollen by leaps and bounds! He made sure to swallow every single drop, not a millilitre was wasted.

'Burp!'

"Wow! That was some good liquor! Enough to moist the dryness in my stomach!" Jin Hennessy felt as if he had become 10 years younger. Life energy permeated his stomach.

"How could he drink all those bottles of wine so quickly?" Sugar Bun and Xuan Li were both amazed by Jin Hennessy's drinking prowess. Unlike them, Dam Son wasn't as surprised, for he was accustomed to seeing it.
