The gathering was filled with elites from the rebel base but for some reason all the people looked extremely rich from their dress and attire. As Sam entered the hall in his casual dress, he gained the attention of the whole group. Some had sneers on their face while some looked at him with curiosity, and with the presence of the disabled masked guy besides Sam. They became the discussion topic for the rest.

Sam was a carefree person, so he didn't mind much, he took a corner table along with Levi to chat. Levi started giving an introduction about different people that were gathered here. Sam found that most of the people here had some background or were rich young masters among the rebels. Sam knew that this was the people of the pro-war faction but this group was more focused on rich and high rise people more than strong warriors.

All the noise in the surrounding died down all of a sudden. Sam had already noticed that some powerful people were entering the hall. Sam had noticed that the person leading this group was a young man with an aura of True warrior, even Frank was following him.

Sam knew that this guy was strong, and from his aura he appeared to be someone who broke through the true warrior realm naturally. Sam had the intuition that this must be the first prince that Levi had talked about.

After entering the hall the first prince got on the podium and started welcoming everyone to the gathering. Then he started giving a speech on how they are advancing greatly in the process of recapturing the planet from the clutches of the Alliance government. He even included certain victories that they have achieved and for some reason the victory that Sam won over was also included, as if each one of these victories had the backing of the first prince and the pro war faction.

After hearing the speech given by the first prince for sometime Sam soon realized that these people might not be a pro-war faction, but some delusional group. They are calling for War based on some small victories that they have gained and the limited troop of the rebels. After the speech of the First prince some of the other elites who followed the First prince started their own rallying. After the speech food and drinks were served, this was a time for these young elites to get to know each other in a better manner.

Sam didn't care much so he went to the drinking counter and ordered a rum. The barman was stunned then he replied with an apologetic expression

" sir we don't have rum here , I am extremely sorry...we have Salvatore's Legacy,Chateau D'Yquem...."

Sam was flustered, because he didn't even know what these drinks were. He had only started drinking recently and for some reason he liked the taste of the rum that he had on the mountains and ever since then he became a fan of rum.

Levi was also taken aback by Sam's request, he had gifted that bottle of rum to Sam because that bottle of rum had a special history, it was considered more of an antique and a symbol of friendship. Who knew this guy would actually drink it and become a fan of rum.

But before Levi could say anything another arrogant voice was heard from behind, supported by the strong aura of someone from the peak of the warrior realm.

" What is happening with the gathering, the standards are getting lower. Even clowns get invited now..."

Sam didn't mind such taunting and Levi was surprised to see that the person who had spoken just now was one of the rising stars of the rebel army Raimond. He was already at the peak of the warrior realm at the age of 21, enough to be arrogant in this circle.

Sam had always asked Maya to cover his aura and let out only the aura of a mid tier Warrior.

Before Levi could refute, Sam tapped his shoulder and then turned back to the barman to ask for two glasses. Then he swiftly left for a corner table with Levi.

Raimond was angered by Sam's action , as he was thinking of showing off his powers when the other party refuted and argued with him. But all his plans went to the drain.

Sam coolly took out what was left of the rum from his space ring and he poured a glass for himself and Levi. Levi was flustered he thought " this guy really drank it ".

I have kept it with me all this time as one of my greatest collections with a distinct history.

But he didn't know what to say as he had gifted it to the other party already.

So Levi had no choice, he too took the glass and emptied it..

The surrounding people started their chatter again.

" I can't stop myself from laughing, maybe I should give this guy some change to buy at least a full bottle of rum... he took out a half emptied bottle of rum..."

Similar gloating was going all around the place, Sam could hear everything but he didn't mind and after having a glass Levi was also becoming more carefree.

As Sam and Levi were going on with their drinking session, someone was walking to the table where Sam and Levi were drinking.
