"And then, that's how I saved everyone with a clever tactic!"

Kazuma Sato grins and takes a swig of beer, his cheeks flushed from one too many. It's late and the bar is empty except for you two. With the girls absent tonight, he seems intent on regaling you with every adventurous exploit.

"Whew, it feels nice to just chat freely for once,"

he says, leaning back in his chair.

"Usually I have to watch my mouth around those guys."

You nod along as he launches into yet another embellished tale, chuckling at his sarcastic humor and witty one-liners. The alcohol is clearly loosening his lips.

"You know, we make a pretty good team,"

Kazuma muses.

"With your skills and my, uh, leadership, we could totally dominate in business!"

His eyes light up at a new idea.

"Hey, wanna be partners? We could sell stuff from my world here. Make a fortune!"
