Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The tavern was open for business as usual.
In the afternoon, Shaman and Bart walked into the tavern side by side, while Grandpa Babor brought the other dwarves in.
Alan stood behind the bar counter and tidied up. Abraham and the other five were still gathered together and discussing the cocktails they had just drunk.
In the tavern sat a few customers who had come early in the morning to drink. As usual, there was nothing special about them.
Ai Xiaohei’s half-closed cat eyes were faintly filled with anticipation.
“My best friend, I’m here! Without me, your life will be very boring these days, haha…”
Bart started shouting as soon as he entered the door. Everyone was used to it when they saw that it was him.
Ever since he took the first blueprint from Alan, Bart rarely had time to leisurely drink in the tavern.
“Yo, Bart, the tavern has been much quieter since you were away.”
Alan’s smile was brilliant. Recently, his friends had been busy. Alan had not seen them for a long time. When he was free, he would occasionally miss the daily drinking and chatting in the pub.
Uncle Wayne had gone to the Imperial City while Orina had her own things to do. Bart and Shaman were helping him complete his task. Only Yupanki stayed in the tavern. Abraham and the other three demon lords could talk to each other.
“Haha… Don’t worry, I’ll have a lot of time to talk to you…”
“What time do you have? Have you finished building the generator? Have you finished improving the electric lamp? Or do you think the humidifier is already perfect and doesn’t need improvement?”
Grandpa Babor jumped up from behind and gave Bart a hard slap on the back of his head as he scolded him mercilessly.
Alan looked at Bart, who was scolded again, and expressed his sympathy.
“Grandpa Babor, aren’t you a little too strict with Bart? Actually, Bart is already very outstanding.”
Alan defended his friend weakly.
Grandpa Babor did not directly refute Alan. Looking at his grandson, who was already much taller and stronger than himself, he tried hard to straighten his chest, which made his expression instantly collapse.
“Forget it. He’s still far from it. If he takes over the dwarves now, he’ll definitely cause a big mess…”
After Alan’s explanation, Grandpa Babor lost the desire to continue educating his grandson, even though he looked disappointed.
“If you hand the future of the dwarves to Bart now, I think the dwarves will be completely finished.” Shaman muttered to himself.
“If the goblins are handed to you, they will be finished as well.”
Alan was startled when the dwarf girl who had been quietly following beside Grandpa Babor suddenly spoke.
He had never heard the girl speak in such a long time. He thought that she was a mute and was afraid that she would talk about other people’s sad matters, so he did not dare to ask Bart.
Shaman was indignant and was about to refute, but Bart interrupted him.
Bart saw Alan looking at the dwarf girl’s confused and shocked expression and asked first.
“Hey… Alan still doesn’t know Bertha?” Bart was surprised.
Alan nodded. Indeed, Grandpa Babor had been in Rock City for a while, but no one had properly introduced the girl.
“You idiot, you can’t even do such a simple thing, let alone the development of the dwarves…” Grandpa Babor suddenly hit Bart’s head in anger.
The sound of his head being hit was very painful.
After Grandpa Babor finished venting, he panted and said, “Little Alan, I’m sorry, it’s our fault. We neglected for such a long time and didn’t notice. Bart, why don’t you quickly introduce us?”
Bart rubbed the back of his head with a bitter look on his face. He smiled at his grandfather ingratiatingly.
“Alan, this is Bertha. She’s…” Bart’s face was slightly red. “She’s… She’s my fiancée…”
He introduced Bertha intermittently. Alan was shocked by her bashful look and her dark red face.
Bertha smiled brightly and nodded at Alan. She was not as shy as Bart, she just did not like to talk.
“Yes, yes, Bertha is a good child. If Bart had not grown up with her, he would not have been able to get Bertha’s favor.”
Grandpa Barber had always spared no effort to mock his own grandson.
Alan was even more surprised. It was actually the girl who took persuade Bart. Then how dumb must this guy be.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s not Bart’s problem either. I wish I had asked earlier.”
“Oh right, I’ve developed a new wine. Let me try to make it for you.”
Alan smiled awkwardly. After all, he had never asked before, so he had made up a lot of things in his mind. In the end, he realized that they were all unreliable guesses.
Once he heard that there was a new wine, Grandpa Babor did not care about anything else and turned his gaze to the new wine that Alan had mentioned.
There was a group of strong men surrounding the bar counter before the shop opened. At this moment, there was a group of dwarves, and in the middle of them was a thin and small goblin. This combination was not common.
Alan repeated the introduction that he had said when he was making the cocktail.
When Ai Xiaohei saw Alan starting to make the cocktail, she immediately sat up and eagerly waited for a glass.
The cocktail was indeed much more attractive than other wines. Alan specially made a cocktail for Ai Xiaohei and Bertha that had a lower color and alcohol content.
As expected, the girls could not escape from being deceived by the appearance of the cocktail. They all said that the cocktail was better than other wines.
The taste preferences of the men were similar. Everyone thought that the cocktails looked good and tasted good, but it was not satisfying enough. Men should still drink the Burning Knife Soju. Only spirits like whiskey would taste good.
“Little Alan is really good with wine. In just a few days, he developed this… cocktails. I heard from you that this kind of cocktails can be mixed and matched with many drinks. In that case, just the cocktails alone can be used to make countless new drinks.”
Grandpa Babor finished the wine in his glass and could not help but sigh.
“Yes, yes. Alan’s ability to make wine is his innate. He must be the reincarnation of the god of wine!” Bart also praised him.
“I won’t admit it in other aspects, but if you praise me for making good wine, I’ll completely accept it. After all, I’m very good at making wine!”
Alan accepted all of this praise without the slightest bit of embarrassment.
He knew that he still lacked a lot of base wines now. In the future, when he brewed more base wines, there would be more choices for making cocktails. At that time, there would be cocktails that were suitable for men to be made.
After all, in his previous life, there were many strong cocktails that were suitable for men to drink. However, due to the limited condition, he could not make them for the time being.
The atmosphere at the bar was just right, and it looked peaceful.
The system in Alan’s mind suddenly appeared again.
[ Main mission 7, released ]
Alan was stunned when he heard the notification sound. He then remembered that he had just received the reward for mission 6 today, and mission 7 had not been released yet.
When the notification sound rang, he instantly immersed his mind into the system in his mind.
[ Main quest 7, lay a railway track, the length of which is at least linked to two cities. ]
This… This quest shocked Alan. He had never thought that the next quest would be to build a railway?
According to the previous quest line, shouldn’t they continue to develop the technology line?
Why did it turn into an infrastructure branch?
“Alan, Alan, What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?”
Bart looked at Alan, who had been silent for a long time. Alan did not even respond to him.
“I’m thinking about something big! Bart, Shaman, that’s work for you!”
Alan looked at Bart with a hint of excitement, then turned to look at Shaman.
After being called out by Alan, the two of them vaguely felt that what they were about to say next would be very important!
