Looking at the three big shots from the Imperial City who were stunned by the ordinary new wine served in this border town under his rule, Kramer felt a sense of accomplishment. Sevilino also had a proud look on his face, as if the scene of him carefully placating the guest earlier was an illusion. He looked at the governor and they both smiled, sipping the wine in their glasses. The magic Lafite was the main course. Before that, he could not drink too much. Due to the feedback from the two elven…-

Ever since Orina left Rock City, Sophia came every day to have a drink at Alan’s tavern right around closing time. Perhaps it was because she made a fool of herself when she first drank Lafite, she would leave after drinking half a bottle. For the last three days, Alan would drink the leftovers. It wasn’t until Alan told her that if she couldn’t finish it, she could save the rest as long she re-sealed the bottle, and from that day on, Alan could no longer take advantage of the leftover wine…

After a long while, the governor was the first to come back to his senses. He looked at Alan and was pleasantly surprised. “Can you guarantee a sufficient amount of this Lafite wine?” When Alan heard the governor’s question, he guessed that he would probably have to receive many people. “Of course, this is just an ordinary wine,” Alan replied. “As for the magic Lafite, as long as there aren’t too many people, I can provide enough for satisfaction.” The governor recalled that the…

When Orina and Sofia left the night before, it was already late at night. Alan tidied up the hall and went upstairs to rest. He still woke up early in the morning. After checking the wine cellar, he returned to the hall. Alan sat at the bar counter and looked at the tavern door across from him. He was thinking about the news that Orina brought yesterday. She told Alan that the governor was currently looking for special food and taverns in Rock City. He was hosting an important guest from the…

That night, as usual, Alan was lying on the bar counter in a daze. Just as he was dozing off, there was a sound coming from the door of the tavern. He looked up and saw that it was the elven queen Orina who disappeared for five whole days. “Welcome back, beautiful elven lady,” Alan greeted her with a bright smile. “Long time no see, Alan.” Orina, who had not drunk any wine, greeted him elegantly. The two returned to the place where they had their first drink. It was already dusk, and…

Orina was a little embarrassed by Alan’s rejection. As the queen of the elves, she had never been short of money, so she did not understand this aspect. She only knew that this grape had the possibility of allowing her to advance up the tier levels, so it was something she needed to strive to get. Only when she becomes a stronger queen would she be better at protecting her people. Alan was an ordinary person who could not cultivate at all. In addition, he lost the protection of his parents at a…

Alan was intoxicated by the wonderful taste of the magic grapes when the system notification pulled him back to his senses. He was looking forward to Mission 2 even more after tasting the magic grapes. After reading the mission requirements, Alan was debating whether he should eat another magic grape when he heard sounds coming from the stairs leading to the second floor bedroom. He stopped what he was doing and turned his head to look at the two elven women who were elegantly walking down the…

The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto the large bed in the bedroom on the second floor. Allen’s punctual biological clock did not care if his master had been drinking or not. When it was time, it urged him to wake up. He woke up groggily. With one hand behind his back, he propped himself up on the bed. He let his mind and body slowly wake up as he recalled what happened last night. Alan remembered that Orina went crazy for a while after getting drunk. Just when the two of…

Alan kept reciting a clear-your-head mantra in his mind, hoping that he would not make a fool of himself. Sophia quickly tidied up her queen’s clothes, looking troubled. She secretly hated the young man in front of her for bullying her young and gullible queen. Not only did he get her drunk, but he also seemed to be plotting something evil. She kept sizing up the young man beside her with a scrutinizing gaze. Alan calmed his heart down and stole a glance at Sophia. When he realized that she…

Sophia stood at the entrance of the tavern in shock. She looked at her queen hanging on the body of a young boy like a koala bear. She kept rubbing her face against his cheek, mumbling coquettishly. Alan was also speechless. He thought that this lady had a decent tolerance for alcohol, but who knew that her alcohol limit was only half a pot of red wine. Not only was she drunk, but she also acts out when she’s drunk. Although she was warm and soft in his arms, was as beautiful as a fairy, and…
