Tavern in Another Dimension:Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start Novel - Chapter 42
Chapter 42: Shura Field
“Boohoo…hoo…”
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Olivia’s eyes filled with tears and she burst out crying.
Before Alan and Orina could think of any good ideas, they heard Olivia’s cries of grievance reverberate throughout the tavern. The other guests watched the situation curiously. Many of them did not know Olivia.
Stanton and the little chambermaid pretended to be oblivious to what was happening. From what the Princess told them, it was just a conflict with a friend. It could be resolved easily with coaxing from the perpetrator himself.
Instead, it was Yupanki who belatedly realized that he was the one who had caused this scene. He immediately panicked…
“Hey, Olivia, don’t cry… I apologize, I apologize. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have lied to you in the beginning…”
Alan looked at the girl who was crying bitterly and hurried to her side. Wayne shook his head at the sight of how hesitant he was in comforting the girl.
On seeing how awkward Alan was, Wayne couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. “This silly boy, can’t he just hug her in his arms?”
Orina looked conflicted. She came to Olivia’s side and stroked her head gently. She comforted Olivia gently, “I’m sorry for hurting you with my actions. If you need me to sign a new contract before you’re willing to forgive me, I’m willing to do it, my friend.”
Olivia stopped crying and raised her head slightly. She glanced at Orina and asked, “Really? You’re willing to sign a new contract?”
Alan looked at the girl who was crying so hard a moment ago. She was still in the mood to question Orina. He felt relieved.
“Well, if my friend needs me to do this in order to be willing to forgive me.”
Orina agreed without any hesitation, without the slightest bit of reluctance.
“Then, I forgive you.”
Looking at Orina’s sincere apology, Olivia’s face flushed red. In the end, she chose to forgive, but she had no intentions of signing a new contract.
A silly grin hung on the faces of the guests in the tavern as they watched as the two beautiful girls held hands and smiled adorably.
“Then, then… What about me…”
Seeing that Orina had been forgiven, Alan hurriedly asked. But his voice became softer and softer as he saw the look Olivia gave him.
“Hmph!”
“No, what do you mean? Do you forgive me or not?”
Alan was helpless. Why were women so troublesome? Isn’t it good to just say what was on your mind?
The guests watching laughed at how Olivia was treating Alan. After her venting earlier, they could pretty much guess what had happened.
Everyone also knew that Alan was at fault in this matter. In the end, even Orina, who had made a small mistake, apologized seriously. Whereas Alan, the main culprit, did not even apologize properly. Yet, he wanted to win forgiveness?
Of course, these people would not admit that they were saying this because of Orina’s good looks.
“You don’t have to pay me the gold coins you owe me anymore, will that do?” Alan said with a painful expression.
When Olivia heard that this guy did not have any intentions to compensate her, and even dared to mention the gold coins, she was instantly furious.
“You still dare to say this?! You’re already lucky that I didn’t ask you to return my 500 gold coins!”
“No, weren’t the effects worth 500 gold coins? Why do you still want them back? There’s no more, it’s all used for the renovations, there’s not even a single gold coin left, don’t even think about it.”
When Alan heard that she still wanted him to return the gold coins, he was instantly disgruntled. How could he still have any gold coins? All of them had been swindled away by the cheating system!
“You… You, you scoundrel!”
Olivia was flustered and exasperated, but she could not refute his statement. After all, the effect had far exceeded the value of 500 gold coins…
“Why don’t you let Alan compensate you with something? Please calm down, Olivia…”
Orina did not want to see the two of them continue to argue.
“Hmph, would this miser even agree to do so?” Olivia was a little tempted by the suggestion.
“I… Then tell me, how do you want me to apologize in order to be willing to forgive me?”
Alan originally wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, he was frightened by Orina’s warning look and changed the topic.
“Then you shall provide Yupanki magic wine for leveling up for free, and then you will compensate me with 100 bottles of Magic Lafite, then I will forgive you.”
After saying that, Olivia looked at him with a smug look. She thought to herself, ‘Sister Orina is backing me up. Why would I be afraid of you?’
“You are robbing me! Impossible!”
Alan exploded when he heard that. He had worked so hard to save and collect everything. Why would he have to compensate one-fifth of it for no reason…
“Huh?!” Orina snorted and stared at Alan calmly.
“Hmph, I’m a good man and I don’t fight with women. I’ll pay you 50 bottles at most. I’ll agree to the matter with Yupanki. Although he betrayed me, he did help me for a few days.”
Alan mumbled about his conditions.
Olivia was also asking for a lot. Her aim was to let Yupanki make a breakthrough. She was only half-joking when asked for the wine. She didn’t expect him to agree so easily with one glare from Orina.
Therefore, Alan, who was forced to pay compensation, sat next to the two girls with a belly full of grievances. As for Stanton, he had been brought to an empty table by the little chambermaid who was very observant. After Yupanki reported his mission, he also followed Stanton to the side.
Only Alan, Orina, and Olivia were left at the table that Olivia was originally sitting at.
The atmosphere between the three of them was quite pleasant after the compensation matters were sorted out.
The two girls were having a good time criticizing Alan, saying that they and regretted meeting each other only now…
Alan sat between them, trying to reduce his presence.
At this moment, Sofia, who had not come to the tavern for many days, made an appearance.
Sophia entered the tavern and did not see Alan, who was usually standing behind the bar counter. She looked around and found Alan sitting awkwardly between the princess and the Queen. Anger bubbled within her as she strode over to the table.
She was cursing Alan in her heart, “For the sake of my Queen’s happiness, I even put away my little thoughts. But you, you still always manage to find opponents for the Queen! Men are really such pigs!”
Orina saw Sofia coming over and waved at her happily, as if she did not notice the anger in her eyes.
“Sofia, long time no see!”
When Alan saw Sofia coming, he naively thought that his savior had arrived.
Sofia did not say a word. Her gaze was fixed on Alan, and she sat down beside the queen with a cold expression.
Other than Orina, who did not feel anything, both the dense Alan and shrewd Olivia could sense Sofia’s boiling anger.
The atmosphere between the four of them gradually became strange. The atmosphere became heavy, but Orina did not seem to feel it.
It was as if he was on a Shura Field. Alan was so scared that he only wanted to escape.
Olivia only felt puzzled. This new elf seemed to be filled with hostility toward her.
Therefore, everyone drank their wine in silence.
“Then, then… I’ll go and serve the guests first…” Alan was about to stand up and leave, but three gazes were fixed on him.
Orina’s look of confusion, Olivia’s pleading look of help, and Sofia’s threatening gaze…
“Where do you think you’re going? Sit down.” Sofia’s voice was icily cold.
Alan could only stiffly put his butt back on the chair and look at the wine glass in front of him with a dry smile.
The governor and the administrative officer who had just arrived at the tavern looked at the scene of the Shura Field in the corner curiously. They went over to Stanton’s table and listened to the cold-faced knight recount what had happened earlier.
As they listened, they blamed each other for taking so long to go out, causing them to miss the first half of the show.
Yupanki had long since returned to his role as the waiter after realizing that Alan could not escape from the table.
