slightly famous sommelier, and everything he knew about Rarity was merely from stories he had heard from others. He had heard about her, but he had no idea what she looked like. “I am sorry, Miss Rarity. I shouldn’t have suspected your judgment.” The sommelier was proud, but he was willing to admit his faults and acknowledge his betters.Elspeth shrugged it off. “Next time, have a taste of the drinks at a wine-tasting event. You are a sommelier, so use your tongue.”The sommelier was nearly forty years old. Elspeth was about half his age, and he was a little fidgety about being lectured by her, but he wasn’t complaining.“Sorry, everyone. The champion for this event is Miss Rarity herself!” He took the glass from the podium and handed it to Elspeth. “Here, this is yours.

Spencer easily evaded the incoming barrel as well, thanks to his agile feet. However, everyone else wasn’t as lucky. They were drenched in lard and couldn’t even walk. Everyone slipped and groaned in pain.Elspeth turned to Frank and asked, “Are you alright?”“Yeah, but—” The sentence was never finished. A shocked Frank quickly pulled her into his embrace.An agonizing, burning sensation washed over his body, and before long, the pain knocked him out. Wait, that’s acid! Elspeth felt a wave of pain coming from her arm. Her skin was burned, but she held back her pain and raised her head. Right then, she saw someone hurrying away with a bottle of acid
