Chapter.5 Elder’s Visit

“This time it’s the same but different alcohol. “I wonder if you can feel the difference.”

As expected, by provoking me.

Then Medidana took the drink in her hand with an expression that asked what the hell that meant. He then pours the whiskey into his mouth with an expression as if he is possessed.

The elder’s face changes every moment. What can I say about this face? It’s a face that I don’t want to admit, but I can’t help but admit it. The face looks like it’s going to die because the taste of alcohol is so amazing.

It is a face that mixes two beliefs.

Lulin saw this and gently put his hand on the whiskey bottle. It is the black dragon’s instinct to crave alcohol. I mercilessly slapped the back of his hand away.

“sick!”

I looked at him with an unfair face and started threatening him.

“This is not possible. If you put this in your mouth, it will really kick you out. “It’s so toxic that it really shouldn’t be done, at least not in the current situation.”

Lulin looked at the bottle with regretful eyes. I guess I’ll have to hide it. I can’t even imagine what kind of injection I’ll get after eating this.

I can’t show you yelling at me while we’re having a serious conversation.

Meanwhile, Medidana savored the taste of the alcohol and emptied the glass. It’s a happy face.

Every time you pass it down your throat, the delicate scent will spread and you won’t be able to overcome it.

I took out my last weapon. A whiskey aged for the longest period of time in the best oak barrels in the whiskey industry.

Yes, it is an item that has a maturation period of over 70 years. Of course the price is expensive. Very expensive.

It is an item that exceeds the price of a normal car.

Of course, when you summon an item in modern times, you don’t get it for free. Should we call it the law of equivalent exchange?

There is a price to pay. At the same time as summoning, a gold nugget worth the amount is pushed in. It’s a gold bar in my treasure.

The gold far exceeds the price of the item, so it would be sufficient compensation.

“This is the last time.”

I poured whiskey into a new glass again. That brown color is so beautiful. The brown beauty that oozes out of the oak barrel cannot be compared to that of a 30-year-old barrel. Compared to this liquor, 30-year-old liquor is nothing.

“The last thing is more than that drink just now... ?”

Medidana looked at me with an expression of disbelief. My voice was trembling. The voice of a 3,000 year old ancient dragon is trembling.

I guess I won the pride battle.

Medidana understood the meaning of my expression, but she put her hand to the glass with a flushed face, as if she couldn’t stop eating.

The liquor that flows into the dragon’s mouth slowly flows down its throat. After taking a sip, the dragon lost consciousness for a moment.

I fell silent as I savored the drink, rolling it around in my mouth.

There was a moment of silence, and the dragon poured whiskey down his throat as if it was a waste and muttered.

“This... It’s like a spring breeze with the scent of flowers, yet soft... It’s rich yet refreshing... Good, good... .”

The spirit, which has become mild after being aged for a long time, will spread a fruity scent like a spring breeze every time you pass it down your throat, leaving a very deep chocolate-like flavor and lingering scent.

The dragon didn’t say anything after its muttering. I just stare blankly at my glass.

Then, after a while, he hit himself hard on the cheek.

But this is a summon item. An item that is so rare that it cannot be summoned in large quantities.

One of my small wishes is to make my own aged liquor in this world. Anyway, distilled alcohol exists, so it’s not that difficult of a problem. It’s just a matter of maturation.

The prerequisite is to find trees that surpass oak and make oak barrels.

Whenever they ask me for help and promise to give anything.

Anyway, it’s funny that humans aren’t the only ones whose attitude completely changes between before and after going to the bathroom.

“What should we do, human? Are you going to fight us? or not?”

The elder looked at me with a sly face. In the end, there is only one answer.

“Well, that’s good. “Isn’t it enough to make it rare?”

The elder smiled strangely at my words.

“You want to make it rare?”

“yes.”

“There is still time before Rurin becomes an adult.”

“Yes, of course. It’s one year. “Are you really going to make a rare in just one year?”

“Because I took over the Dragon Lord’s treasure. “There are enough treasures to fill the rares.”

“Hoo?”

The elder looks interested. I don’t want to repay that interest. I have no intention of leaving here.

“But I can’t leave here. So, I plan to make the bottom of this hill rare.”

“you... Really? Are you really making it rare?”

Rurin looked at me with a blank face.

“Yes, if I leave you to make it alone, it may take hundreds of years to collect the treasure from the beginning. There’s nothing you can do to avoid being dragged away, right? “It might be something that wasn’t planned.”

“really? “Really?”

Lulin’s face, which had been dying at the thought of being dragged away, began to bloom.

If a dragon rare contains no treasure, it is not recognized as a rare. Because the dragon’s love for treasure began from there.

“Yes, I make it. My wealth and connections. And we’ll use all of our magic to dig up the entire hill below where the restaurant is located and create a rare enough space to fit your original body. “I’m thinking of making the house a little bigger.”

If we compare the hill where the restaurant is to a pancake. The inside of that bun. The idea is to dig out all the red bean parts, protect them from collapsing with a magic barrier, and then make them rare. Because the hill where the restaurant is located is of that size.

“Can you really make it in one year?”

“My magic and Lurin’s magic. And if you have treasure, there’s nothing you can’t do. “The promise I made to the elder is a promise, but the promise I made to Rurin is also important, so I cannot return it.”

“Such a situation is none of my business. But rules are rules. It’s true that according to the rules, there is definitely a year to spare. If I’m going to make it, it has to be a rare item that I approve of. Responsible for causing the death of Rurin’s mother. Since I couldn’t even protect the rare she left behind, I’ll have to make it again. And once the rare is completed, I will declare this area as Lurin’s territory.”

The elder said that and jumped up from his seat. The way he stood up looked exactly like Lulin.

“I’ll taste that drink again a year later when I come back to check for rare.”

The elder left only those words and disappeared through teleportation without giving anyone time to respond. As I looked at that scene, a sense of discomfort exploded.

I feel a contradiction. Obviously, the elder said, “We’ll have to make it again.”

Is this it?

I feel sorry for Lulin who doesn’t have any rares. So, I need to make it rare, but it’s a hassle to do it myself. So what if you showed up to take advantage of me and my treasure? By mentioning the rules.

Was he attacked by a 3,000-year-old snake? No, it’s not a serpent, it’s a dragon that evolved from a serpent.

It seemed like I was hooked.

I saw Lulin. What is so exciting is making me laugh out loud. No, it would be exciting.

“If I build a lair under this land, will you also be living in my lair?”

Judging by what he said, it was a solo crime committed by the elder.

But no matter what, the important thing is the restaurant.

When I have free time, I can just dig a tunnel as a pastime and move my treasure to a rare place. Still, my mouth was open. equation.
