Tavern in Another Dimension: Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start

Chapter 39: Friends Reunion

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, there were only five days left until the Harvest Festival.

It had been a week since Sophia left Rock City.

The tavern was much livelier. However, for Alan, his friends were not around so after all the preparations, all that was left for him was emptiness.

Recently, with Yupanki helping in the tavern, Alan felt much more relaxed.

However, that night the sky was gray, mister Wayne and the others just arrived at the tavern when a shocking elf customer entered the tavern.

The scene was so silent that one could hear a silver needle drop to the ground.

"Gulp..." the sound of someone swallowing their saliva broke the silence, and the customers in the hall gradually came back to their senses.

"Hey, Hey, Hey, this elf is even more beautiful than Sofia, right? If one said that she was a queen I'm sure there are those who would believe it!" Knapp said to Wayne, who was sitting next to him.

Mauricio said with a blank expression, "I think she is the Queen!"

Amorim nodded vigorously in agreement.

As Orina entered the tavern, Alan realized the situation as soon as the lobby quieted down. He revealed a bright smile to the girl who was walking toward him.

The others directly or indirectly stared intently at Orina.

It was not until Orina stopped in front of the bar counter that Alan burst into a bright smile.

Mister Wayne and the other five always sat at the table closest to the bar counter, which was the closest to Alan.

"Hiss..." everyone gasped. How beautiful was she...

"Wayne, did you know that little Alan knew other elves besides Sophia?" Dorje couldn't help but ask curiously.

Wayne looked thoughtful as he recalled the conversation between him and little Alan to see if there were other elves beside Sophia.

"I don't know. Little Alan never mentioned his friends. I thought he was too lonely and didn't have any friends, so I didn't dare to ask..."

Knapp ridiculed, "Tsk, with your pig brain, you wouldn't be able to tell even if he did tell you. Don't tell me this is little Alan's girlfriend?"

"Girlfriend! ?" Wayne's reaction was the biggest. He blurted out the question loudly, causing everyone's eyes to focus on him.

When Alan heard Wayne's exclamation, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to him. With a puzzled expression, he asked, "Mister, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing. We were talking about Dorje having a new girlfriend..." Wayne waved his hands, trying to dodge the question. His expression was a little unnatural, and he kicked Dorje under the table.

Dorje was suddenly pulled out as an excuse. He looked confused, but he had no choice but to nod.

"Hey! Is mister Dorje in love? Is it recent? Who is the partner? Why hasn't there been any news before?"Alan was more excited than the others. Alan treated Dorje and Wayne as his elders so knowing that they have been single for many years, he cared about their relationships.

"Uh... about that..."Dorje rubbed his hands, his face full of embarrassment. He was trying hard to think of a way to smooth things over.

Orina watched Alan interact with them with interest. Looks like during the time she was away, Alan met many good people.

"Het, little Alan, don't ask. you're making Dorje embarrassed. I'll let him show you next time," Wayne said arrogantly, then looked curiously at Orina who was standing in front of Alan.

"Don't mind Dorje, shouldn't you introduce her?" As he said that, he winked at Alan mischievously.

Alan looked at his teasing manner and felt a little embarrassed. He and Orina were clearly just friends, but why did they suddenly act like teenagers who were caught by their parents on a date...

"Oh, this is Orina, my best friend." Alan scratched his face and introduced her shyly.

Wayne and the others had a look of realization on their faces and they smiled mischievously. "Oh, your best elven friend."

Orina felt a little uncomfortable being teased by their meaningful "Oh." There was not a hint of it on her face, but the tip of her ears, which were already beginning to bleed, easily betrayed her.

She did not speak, but only nodded slightly at them.

The other people in the tavern were even more curious. After all, everyone was curious about the relationship between such a beautiful elf and Alan. However, they were too far away and could not hear their conversation clearly.

Yupanki was paying attention to the situation here. After all, besides the fact that the tavern was a safe place, he also guessed that the reason why Princess Olivia asked him to come to the tavern was to gather as much information as possible.

During this period of time, he had been spending time with Alan and had some thoughts in his mind. The young man in the tavern was definitely someone with a big secret, but he still had no idea what the secret was.

Even though he did not discover Alan's secret, He did hear some news from the customers who came and went.

Alan invited Orina to sit down at her old seat at the bar counter. He tried his best to ignore the curious gazes from the others and got along with her as before.

"The same old magic Lafite? I have a new type of drink here, but the alcohol content is too high. It's not suitable for girls. I don't recommend you to drink it."Ala n already had an understanding of her alcohol tolerance.

Orina nodded with a smile. "Mm, then I won't try it. I haven't drunk enough Lafite."

When Alan was preparing, the two of them started chatting in a low voice like before.

"Looking at you, your breakthrough seems to be going smoothly," Alan said as he poured some wine.

"Yeah, it's going very smoothly. I broke through very quickly after returning. Your tavern is looking pretty good recently. There are many more customers and you even made new friends." When it came to new friends, Orina looked at Alan with a faint smile.

Under her glance, Alan felt an indescribable pressure and shivered slightly.

"Oh, yes. Speaking of which, Olivia went to look for you. Why did you come to my place first? Where is she?"

Alan did not notice Orina's little mood, but Dorje could vaguely hear it. He pursed his lips and sighed. 'Little Alan is really as stupid as Wayne.'

"Do you miss her that much? Can't wait to see her? I've been away for so long, why didn't you say you wanted to see me?" Orina rolled her eyes and lifted her chin slightly, looking at Alan from top to bottom.

Hearing this, Alan finally noticed Orina's abnormality. She seemed to be a little emotional. Could it be that she was worried that Olivia would snatch her friend away?

He quickly explained, "No, no. When you went back, I often asked Sofia about you. Moreover, your identity prevents you to be able to stay outside for a long time. It's the same for Olivia. After completing this mission, I'm afraid that I won't see her for a long time. Moreover, don't you think that child is very cute?"

Alan found it funny when he thought of Olivia's prideful personality, it made her identity as a princess much weaker.

After Orina said that, she immediately realized that her words were too explicit. She was afraid that Alan would notice something was wrong. When she was fidgeting, she heard Alan's reply. His words disappointed her a little, but she also let out a sigh of relief.

She adjusted her emotions and said, "She'll be slower with the team. Sophia and I came back empty-handed, so we'll be faster than her. Judging from the time, she should be back soon."

The two people at the bar were chatting happily. Wayne and the others were also engrossed in listening. After all, this was a rare piece of gossip.

Even Yupanki kept finding all kinds of reasons to go in and out of the bar to take things and put them away. The voices of the other people around the bar unconsciously decreased, just so that they could hear the content of their conversation clearly.

Wayne's injury was almost fully recovered and he recovered his powers of an Archmage. Although there was still a big gap between now and his peak strength in the past, it was still enough for the time being.

As for how his injury could recover so quickly, Wayne had found some clues very early on.

From the second time he drank magic Lafite, he found that the effect was completely different from the first time. The magic contained in it was 100 times stronger, so the effect was naturally better.

From then on, every time he drank magic Lafite, it was always a very effective level one.

However, Alan only smiled foolishly every time and had no intention of explaining, so he did not ask. He just silently remembered Alan's friendship in his heart.

When he recovered his strength, he was no longer as decadent as before. He could even feel that what he recovered was not only his own magic power but even his damaged body was being repaired bit by bit, perhaps he could be even stronger after he recovered.

This was also one of the reasons why Wayne and Dorje were so concerned about Alan's safety.
