Night passed, and when Rezen returned to his residence, it was almost morning already. With the help of magic and some effort, he finally shook off the alcohol's effects on his system.
Partying, having fun, and getting drunk were indeed enjoyable, but Rezen cannot afford to be drunk for long
First of all, being drunk dulls one's senses. With the crimson portal that the magic beasts could create even inside the core walls, danger is always present. Rezen must be in his top condition at all times in case of an emergency.
Another reason was that Rezen is eager to continue cultivating. It took him three years just to barely reach the Senior Rank, and that is with the full support of Elder Priss and even the City of Hope.
If he takes that much time to reach the Senior Rank, what more for the Great Mage Rank and beyond?
Perhaps, even after a hundred years, he still wouldn't be able to revive his parents. As such, time is essential.
