51-60

The next morning.

The sun woke up Rock City.

The decorations in the city highlighted the festive atmosphere.

Alan got up early. In order to complete the fourth mission, he had prepared a lot for today.

Today was the time to harvest.

Morad brought the male waiters to the tavern early in the morning. In Alan's backyard, a group of people was carrying barrels of wine out of the wine cellar.

Smelling the wine fragrance, everyone's faces were full of smiles.

Orina dressed up meticulously and came to the tavern early in the morning.

According to the agreement, Alan would stay by Orina's side today and take her to participate in the activities of the Harvest Festival.

Alan planned the entire Harvest Festival.

The buffet plan in the central square made all the residents in the town participate enthusiastically.

Everyone agreed with this new celebration mode.

"Can we go now?"

Orina was wearing a green low-cut dress today. She wore a necklace that was the same design as the seed of the Tree of Life on Alan's neck.

Her smile was as pretty as a flower, and she wore a light layer of makeup. She looked very different from the usual Orina.

Alan was shocked by when she stuck her face right up against his. He was momentarily stunned and Orina caught his brief absent-mindedness.

"Okay, okay, okay…"

Alan held his wildly beating heart, his face flushed red, and he took a few steps back.

Seeing Alan's blushing face, Orina smiled like a kitten who had successfully snuck away some food.

He didn't make her wait long. The two walked out of the tavern side by side.

Alan tidied up a little today and was wearing new clothes. He did not have a chance to wear them since he made them, so today was his first appearance in them.

The two people walking together on the street were like a beautiful couple.

They attracted the attention of the neighbors. Usually, they only knew that Alan was a good-looking child, but they did not expect that the dressed-up young man walking out of his tavern had the temperament of a prince.

"The governor invited Sophia to be a judge of the competitions. You recommended her, didn't you?"

The two of them were walking slowly towards the main street. Orina asked as they walked.

"Yes, mister Kramer said that he originally wanted to invite Olivia. Unfortunately, she returned to the Imperial City. At the last minute, he didn't know who else to ask, so I recommended Sophia. Anyway, Sophia is also very beautiful. Moreover, in Rock City, Sophia is much more popular than the princess."

Alan said smugly. Orina could feel the confidence and pride in his words without even looking at his expression.

"Oh, so Sofia's popularity is so high in the city. It seems that our little Alan here is quite knowledgeable about the beautiful women in the city."

The tone of Orina's words made Alan feel a little strange. Before he could figure it out, a group of children running past Orina knocked her over…

She fell in Alan's direction.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

The children came and ran swiftly. There was no time to fuss about it. In that instant, Alan quickly held her steady.

Orina felt the warmth of Alan's palm on her arm, and the tip of her ears turned slightly red.

The young man did not practice martial arts, so his body temperature was not very high. It was just warm.

The two of them were standing in a slightly intimate manner on the street. Alan lowered his head slightly and could see the beautiful girl's chest.

With just one glance, Alan felt blood almost gushing out his nose…he quickly averted his gaze.

After this small episode, the atmosphere between the two of them instantly became slightly dreamy.

As they approached the main street, there were more and more people. The crowd that was shoulder-to-shoulder pushed the two closer. Their hands inadvertently touched and then separated as they walked, so on and so forth.

However, they never held each other's hands.

The Harvest Festival was the biggest event in Rock City in the past two years.

All the residents in the city participated. Not to mention that Alan added many modern elements while planning this celebration, driving up everyone's eagerness to participate.

Walking on the streets, one could see happy faces everywhere. People were exchanging food with each other and discussing the wine that was provided in the self-service area.

Many people also heard the name of the small tavern for the first time and knew that there was such a tavern in Rock City that brewed special drinks.

Whether it was Lafite or whiskey, they were both well-received.

Alan finally achieved his purpose of sponsoring this Harvest Festival.

In the backyard of the blacksmith shop, something seemed to be brewing in the air. After a wave of energy fluctuations, a dark and deep tunnel slowly opened.

After a while, when the tunnel gradually closed, a pitch-black kitten scuttled out from it.

Because it was running too fast and did not slow down in time, when it rushed out of the hole, it rolled three times on the ground until it hit the wall.

The little black cat, dizzy from the impact, struggled on the ground for a long time, but still could not get up.

At this moment.

There was a piercing white noise in the central square.

"Sting… Buzz…"

"Cough… Hey, hey, hey… can everyone hear me?"

Governor Kramer's voice suddenly echoed throughout the city. The little black cat in the yard was frightened by the sudden noise. It was dizzy and couldn't find its way, so it ran around in the blacksmith shop.

However, the process was a little tragic…

The cat was not clear-headed to begin with, and it was further frightened by the voice. While it was running around in the house, it kept knocking down all kinds of furniture and iron embryos until the black cat passed out. The blacksmith shop was in a mess.

Kramer's voice echoed throughout the city. Alan was also the one to propose a magic loudspeaker. There were quite a few experts in the governor's mansion. They were able to create this magic version of the loudspeaker in just a few days based on Alan's description.

At this moment, Alan and Orina were standing side by side by the fountain in the central square. They originally planned to go to the game area for a walk.

He knew that the governor was going to talk about the rules to register for the competitions at this time.

Wayne dragged Abraham over and they also stood in the square to listen to the governor's broadcast.

Most of the old drunkards in Rock City knew that today was the Harvest Festival and the biggest reward would be from the competitions that they were going to hear!

"Hello, residents. I'm the Governor of Rock City, Kramer. What I'm going to say next is the most important activity of this celebration, the harvest season competitions."

The voice on the loudspeaker paused.

"These fun competitions are divided into three categories. The first category is the family-oriented ring-toss competition. The second category is the female-based cooking competition, and the last category is the male-based Ironman Triathlon, which would be shooting, a two-person three-legged obstacle race, and arm wrestling.

"In addition, we will be holding the drinking competition and an outdoor ball in the central square at night. All residents are invited to sign up for the competition. Have fun today!"

As the governor's last words fell, the entire Rock City fell silent for a short while before an earth-shattering roar erupted. It seemed that only an even louder voice could express their happiness..

After cheering, the residents flocked to the registration booths for the various competitions.

Whether it was men or women, even families with children could find a competition suitable for them to participate in.

"Is there anything you want to play?" Alan turned to ask the elf girl beside him.

Orina looked at the stalls around her, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she began to think with a troubled expression.

"Do you all want to play all of them? Or do you all not want to play at all?"

Seeing Orina's conflicted look, Alan asked.

"Every game looks so interesting…"

Since she did not know where to start, she would let Alan, the organizer, make the arrangements.

"Don't be conflicted. Follow me."

After saying that, Alan naturally held onto the delicate hand that was by his side.

The moment he took Orina's hand, her mind went blank. This time, not just her pointy ears, her entire face turned red.

Alan did not think too much about it. It was just that there were many people on the street now, so it was not easy for them to get separated.

If he turned around to look, he would be able to see Orina's blushing face.

According to the dates he had been on at the carnival in his previous life, they would usually play a few games first to get their mood up and then go for snacks. Finally, they would go browse a few stalls and watch a brilliant firework show at night. That was his perfect date plan.

Unfortunately, this foreign world did not have fireworks yet, and Alan could not even make gunpowder, let alone something as difficult as fireworks.

Although it was somewhat regretful, the ball at night was still worth looking forward to.

As for the date between the two young people, the acquaintances they met along the way were very discerning and didn't rashly come forward to disturb them.

The competition participants were all sorts of people, with all sorts of motives.

The regulars of the small tavern were all full of energy, all wanting to get first place, all wanting Alan's reward. A few smart people, after knowing the reward, guessed that Alan was likely coming out with a new drink.

The chance to taste new drinks for free within a year was the best gift for the first batch of loyal customers.

Among these customers, many brought their wives to participate in the family group competition, some brought their girlfriends to participate in the women's group competition. Of the daytime competitions, the most intense competition was in the men's group competition.

To participate in the triathlon, you had to have a partner. The two-person three-legged obstacle race required two people to participate, and only the winner of all three events was the final victor.

Mister Dorje and the other three divided their teams the day before. Mister Wayne, who was the odd man out, had no choice but to team up with Abraham.

"Abraham, why don't you try it on? What if we can…win?"

In an empty alleyway by the registration booths, Wayne forced Abraham into a corner. He was holding an old woman's dress in his hand. When he said this, he didn't have much confidence.

"Your lord is a man!" Abraham growled in a low voice.

"Give it a try. If we win, we'll get double the rewards. Think about it. For an entire year, a free chance to taste new drinks in the tavern!"

Wayne's voice was like the whisper of a demon, constantly bewitching the simple-minded man in front of him.

An entire year of free wine tasting opportunities…Abraham's heart was torn. On one side, he was tempted by the rewards, on the other side, he struggled with his pride.

Wayne looked at the man in the corner who looked like he could be a male or a female. The expression on his face gradually wavered so he quickly added fuel to the fire.

"Think about it. If we win the cooking competition and the Ironman Triathlon competition, then work together and win the drinking competition at night, that would be three rewards!"

"With the strength of the two of us, I believe that no one can stop us."

The air was heavy. After a moment of silence.

"I'm in! I'll change!"

Abraham gritted his teeth and solemnly agreed to this brainless suggestion.

Wayne saw that the most important actor in his plan was already in place. He immediately put on a fawning face, handed over the dress in his hand, and retreated to the alley entrance, guarding it tightly to prevent anyone from getting close.

Abraham looked at the dress in his hand while desperately trying to convince himself. Before changing into the dress, he silently took out his diary.

Hailar calendar: the fourth day after invading the human world

Today, I will put down my dignity and blend in with the enemy.

I am bound to win the final victory today. This competition will be the turning point of my human world investigation!

I am the most cautious Evil Lord of the Abyss!

My Demon King, please watch over me and let me win, let me get an entire year of free wine tasting opportunities

After checking it, he placed the diary back into his pocket and changed out of the cloak and coat he had worn for 100 years.

"Cough…"

It wasn't until a light cough came from behind him that Wayne turned around and stared straight ahead.

The person in front of him had a face that struck his heart. His pale and sickly skin color, his dapper looks, his tempting eyes, and his tall figure made him look slender and sturdy at the same time.

Even though he was wearing an old dress, it still could not hide his beauty and charm.

Abraham changed into a woman's outfit and stood awkwardly in the alley. After waiting for a long time, Wayne, who was opposite him, still did not make a sound.

He frowned and asked impatiently in a deep voice, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take your lord to win the competition."

Once he yelled, Wayne came back to his senses.

"Later, speak a little more gently. Don't yell, be careful not to expose yourself."

Wayne's tanned face was slightly red. He was ashamed at how amazed he felt at his looks earlier, but now he also felt a little embarrassed.

Abraham's expression froze. He nodded and walked towards the square.

Just as Wayne and Abraham were conspiring to enter the cooking competition disguised as a woman, the little black cat in the blacksmith's shop, which had tormented itself until it was dizzy, woke up from the noise outside.

It gradually woke up and looked at its surroundings.

It sniffed the air. This was the place where the Evil Lord once stayed, the smell was quite strong.

It stood up and shook its head. Suddenly, it saw that its body shrunk by more than a hundred times.

It did not know why, but it was terrified. The noise of the people outside the blacksmith shop also made it anxious.

The little black cat no longer hesitated. It quickly climbed up the wall. The crowd on the street made its pupils shrink. It changed its direction and moved towards the side with the least number of people and quickly fled from the main street.

During Harvest Festival, there were many people on the main street.

It ran against the crowd and bared its teeth at every human who came in its way. It ran like it was running for its life to the back street. There were finally fewer humans here…

The little black cat continued to walk along the wall. In its heart, it silently missed the gray sky of the abyss.

"How did I become so small? The Demon King was right. Humans are indeed very cruel. I will not back down before the Evil Lord is found. I want to prove to the Demon King that I am his most powerful pet!"

"Hahaha…"

The little black cat laughed out loud. However, in the ears of humans, it was just a little black cat meowing.

However, this black cat was a little fierce. It would bare its teeth at anyone who approached it.

As it walked, it suddenly smelled a tempting fragrance mixed with the scent of the Evil Lord.

After avoiding the cruel humans, it finally carefully arrived at the backyard of the tavern. The fragrance outside the courtyard wall was even more intense.

After checking around to make sure that there was no one around, it used its hind legs to leap onto the wall and sneaked into the backyard of the tavern..The Harvest Festival was proceeding in an orderly manner.

The streets and the central square became more and more lively as the competitions began.

Alan brought Orina to play all the small games in the game area. The waiters that the governor chose were all quite professional. Even Alan, the organizer, enjoyed his experience.

The handsome young man and the beautiful girl formed a beautiful scene during the celebration.

Those who knew Alan would whisper to the people around them that the young man was a genius brewmaster and the current owner of the small tavern. He brewed both of the drinks provided in the self-service area. Those were drinks that had never existed in Hailar before.

When they spoke, they were extremely proud. It was the "I know, but you don't" sense of superiority that could be seen in every corner of the festival.

Alan brought Orina to sit down in the rest area. It was not early after playing for a while. The two of them haven't had lunch yet so they were hungry.

"You sit down. I'll go get some food." After saying that, Alan turned around to get some food.

"I haven't said what I want to eat…"

Orina mumbled softly. She hadn't said anything yet…

Alan carefully selected the food that he felt Orina liked.

Orina looked at the food Alan chose and smiled.

The tacit understanding between the two became more and more obvious. Just from the choice of food, one could see that Alan completely understood Orina's preferences.

At the cooking competition venue.

Abraham, who changed into women's clothing, not only surprised the men around him, but the women in the same competition were also extremely curious about this 'beautiful girl'.

Under everyone's curious gazes, Abraham's face was expressionless. He tried his best to remain calm and not tremble.

He recalled that ever since he put on the hood, in the 800 years, Abraham had never taken off his hood in a crowd. This time, it was for the sake of victory!

Not only did he sacrifice his pride as a male demon, but he also took off his beloved hood.

He did not know why he agreed to that human's ridiculous request in the alley just now.

Abraham, who was standing in front of the counter, was panicking. He could not help but look at Wayne below the stage.

The competition began.

The women around him began to handle the ingredients. Abraham focused his mind and began his task.

Wayne originally just wanted to give it a try and encourage him to participate in the competition, but he never expected that he would be able to get away with dressing up as a woman.

In terms of practical skills, this guy was not like a man. He handled the ingredients skillfully while heating the pot in an orderly manner.

Wayne even saw a faint smile on his face. Abraham enjoyed cooking very much.

The allotted cooking time quickly ended.

The next stage of the competition was tasting the food. The host randomly selected the audience to go on stage and taste the food before giving out a score. The winner would be determined based on the total score of each person.

Wayne, unfortunately, was not selected to be on the tasting team. He could only watch as the people on stage ate one dish after another.

After Abraham finished cooking, he started to fidget again, constantly avoiding the gazes of the people around him.

"Okay, the results of this cooking competition are in."

Holding a small microphone, the host stood in the middle of the cooking table and announced excitedly.

"The winner of this competition is!"

The host paused and looked at the anticipating audience below.

"Contestant Abra from cooking table number three!"

Wayne was completely shocked. He never thought that Abraham would actually win!?

The audience was cheering for this beautiful stranger. Winning first place meant that he had the chance to taste the new drinks in the tavern for a year for free.

Just as the host was about to hand over the winning medal to him, a faint voice came from outside the crowd.

"Dorje, do you think that woman on the stage looks like Abraham?"

Mauricio was a boorish man. He never cared about his surroundings when he spoke, and his voice was loud.

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head to look at Dorje, who was only as tall as his chest.

When Dorje heard what he said, he also turned his gaze to the "woman" on the stage who just won.

"Isn't that Abraham? Why is he wearing women's clothes!?"

Dorje smiled evilly and said loudly while taking pleasure in others' misfortune.

Wayne's heart raced in the crowd. These two guys are going to ruin things!

"That's right, Abraham. Why are you wearing women's clothes?"

Mauricio turned his head and shouted at the woman on the stage who was waiting to receive the award. Even though they were separated by the crowd, everyone could still hear him.

The entire venue was silent. Everyone was staring at Abraham, who appeared to be uneasy on the stage.

He was cursing Wayne to death in his heart. He had promised to win the championship. Now that he won, he was also exposed!

Wayne had a face full of grief and indignation. Mauricio, this fool!

"May I ask, 'Ms. Abra,' are you a man?!"

The host gritted his teeth and questioned.

"I…"

Abraham stuttered for a long time but still did not speak. There were faint signs that he was about to explode.

Seeing this, the crowd below the stage booed and shouted for Abraham to step down.

Wayne looked at Abraham, who was standing on the counter, trembling with anger. He was a little embarrassed. This time, his plan tricked his friend.

Just as he was thinking of a remedy, Abraham, who was on the stage, waved his hand and opened his magic space. He took out his hood and put it on.

Then, the magic power around his body surged, and the powerful magic power made the people around him gasp…

On the stage, Abraham covered his face and growled through gritted teeth.

"Wayne!? I'm going to kill you today!"

There was no time to think. Looking at Abraham who was pouncing towards him, Wayne turned and fled.

He kept complaining in his heart, how is this guy so strong…

The two of them chased each other until they disappeared in front of the crowd like the wind. Only then did the crowd finally come back to their senses.

"Well, since our champion is a man, to be fair, let's allow the second place to inherit the prize."

The host smiled awkwardly, drawing everyone's attention back to the competition.

Although this farce of a man pretending to be a woman only caused a big commotion in the cooking competition, the chase between the two of them still attracted a lot of attention.

Near the small tavern, in a deserted alley on the back street.

The situation was reversed. Wayne, who was forced into a corner, smiled at Abraham who had a cold expression on his face.

After a short chase, Abraham gradually calmed down.

After regaining his senses, he realized that Wayne, a middle-aged man who was normally unremarkable, was able to escape unscathed under his all-out chase. There was no magic fluctuation on his body at all during this process.

It seemed that this was another hidden powerhouse. Thinking of his mission, Abraham knew that now was not the time to have a fallout with the humans over a year's worth of new wine tasting opportunities.

"Haha, Abraham, I'm sorry about that. This mistake is on me. After all, the two guys who exposed you are my friends."

Wayne looked at the man who was blocking him but did not take any further action. He felt lucky that there was no need to fight anymore. Only then did he resentfully open his mouth to beg for mercy.

Abraham was silent. After a long time, he let out a cold snort and relaxed his body, no longer blocking him.

Wayne rolled his eyes. Another bad idea came to his mind.

He leaned close to Abraham's ear and whispered his plan.

In the backyard of the tavern.

The black kitten was walking elegantly, its big cat eyes looked around vigilantly.

Step by step, it walked toward Alan's wine cellar..

When Morad came for the wine this morning, Alan did not lock the door because he thought it was too troublesome.

Now, it allowed this uninvited guest to take advantage of.

The black cat walked gracefully to the door of the wine cellar. When it came to the door, it took a deep breath of the fragrance coming through the crack of the door. It wagged its tail, and its emerald-like big eyes were half closed in enjoyment.

It squeezed through the crack of the door and jumped onto the wine barrels one by one. Along the way, the strong wine fragrance assaulted its nose.

As it walked, it suddenly stopped and took a deep breath at the wine barrel under its body.

It suddenly widened its eyes, and its face was full of excitement. Then it found the switch on the wine barrel and opened it. After opening it, wine rushed out and flowed all over the floor.

The black cat was shocked and quickly turned the switch down. Then it opened its mouth and drank the wine flowing out, gulping everything down.

Alan's label on the wine barrel was "100-year-old high-level magic Lafite".

The black cat drank more and more. It did not realize that as it drank, its size was changing, sometimes bigger and sometimes smaller.

If a mage saw this, he would cry out in surprise. It had been a long time since a demon beast appeared in the human world. This seemingly unremarkable black cat could freely change its size, this was an innate ability that only a demon beast with great potential could do.

If it was Abraham who saw this, he would only say in disdain, "Isn't that just a worthless piece of trash who only knows how to change its size and can't attack anything ?"

After drinking for an unknown period, the black cat's size finally stabilized at three meters tall eight meters long.

The high-level magic Lafite in the wine barrel also stopped flowing out. It finally could not resist its drunkenness. It tilted its head, and with a heavy thud, fell to the ground and passed out.

As its body continued to rise and fall, a faint trace of black magic power emerged from his nose and floated in the air.

…

On the other side, in the central square.

After Alan and Orina ate their fill, they sat side by side under the parasol, feeling sleepy. They each had a glass of Lafite by their hands, and they were chatting casually. Their drowsiness was miraculously synchronized.

Sophia caught this scene when she came over to have a drink.

The elven lady's face was filled with anger. She raised her eyebrows and her entire body was emitting freezing ice magic.

Just as she was about to go up and make things difficult for Alan, she suddenly seemed to remember something. The magic power on her body froze and instantly dissipated. The remaining anger on her face did not disappear, but there was a hint of sadness.

She took a deep look at the young man who was leaning against the chair and steeled her heart. She turned around and left the square, returning to the competition venue to continue being a judge.

When Wayne and Abraham rushed to the Ironman Triathlon venue, everyone was already prepared to start the competition.

The first competition was the two-person three-legged obstacle race, which required a partner.

Wayne made detailed plans for these three competitions, but he never expected that the two of them was a combination of bad luck.

From failing to cross-dress as a woman earlier in the morning to failing to pretend to be a family of three to participate in the family competition when they were exposed by Knapp and Amorim…

Wayne was furious, but he could not do anything about it. He felt strange. Why was nothing going well today? No matter what he planned, his friends would come and mess it up.

But this was a fair competition. If his plan was interrupted again, it would be Abraham's fault! Wayne ranted fiercely in his heart.

"Couldn't you walk faster!"

After the obstacle race ended, Wayne and Abraham complained to each other in the corner.

"If you listened to my instructions earlier, you wouldn't have been so slow in the beginning. Then how could we have lost?!"

Abraham didn't want to be outdone.

"What? Isn't this the Wayne who said that he would be the victor? How do you still have time to quarrel?"

While the two of them were quarreling, another annoying voice came from the side. The two of them turned their heads and saw that the one who spoke was Knapp, followed by their old drinking buddies.

"Knapp, you old kid, if you hadn't ruined my plan, I would have won!"

Wayne was full of anger when he saw the four of them.

Even Abraham was furious. After all, if these guys hadn't ruined things, the two of them would have already won two competitions.

"You'd better be careful. We definitely won't lose this time!"Abraham said angrily to them.

The referees didn't give them more time to argue. Soon, they signaled that the shooting competition was about to begin.

As time passed, the Ironman Triathlon ended.

Wayne and Abraham, regretfully, didn't enter the top three in any event.

During the shooting competition, a gust of wind suddenly blew through the venue. They both released their arrows the moment their visions were clouded by the wind. Without a doubt, they missed the target.

During the arm wrestling event, unfortunately, they were placed against each other.

The two of them didn't determine a winner within the stipulated time so both were eliminated.

After all the competitions ended, the two of them sat side by side under the fountain as if they had lost their parents.

They looked at each other and did not say anything else.

No matter how hard they tried, they could not figure out what went wrong. Why were they so unlucky?

"Sigh…"

Unlike two unlucky fellows, Dorje, who won the match, was somewhat pleased with himself.

As night fell, Rock City, which was bustling the whole day, did not show any signs of fatigue.

Everyone was still bustling around the central square and the main street.

The venue for the drinking competition was set up. After the dejected duo encouraged each other, they regrouped again.

They looked at each other and silently encouraged each other. They had to win this round!

Unfortunately, the goddess of luck did not favor them today.

The champion of the drinking competition was a dwarf who just arrived at Rock City at dusk.

Just like that, the Harvest Festival for the two unlucky fellows ended. Alan had no idea about their exciting day.

If he knew that his reward would make the two of them work so hard, he probably would be confused.

After all, if he was going to release a new drink, how could he not let them try it in advance?

After the drinking competition ended, the venue instantly turned into a ball.

This was the last event of the Harvest Festival.

Alan and Orina spent the whole day together, just like an ordinary couple. There was no queen today and no age difference.

They played childish games together, ate food that some unknown family made, and lingered with the crowd basking in the sun relaxing.

They didn't always have topics to talk about throughout the day, they just casually chatted, but there wasn't any awkwardness between them.

"My beautiful lady, may I have the honor to invite you to dance the first dance tonight with me?"

Alan smoothed out his clothes that were a little wrinkled from the day. He bowed slightly, his left hand behind his back and his right hand stretched towards her.

Orina looked at the young man in front of her who was sincerely inviting her to dance. The scene in front of her overlapped with the scene when they first met. That night, the young man who pretended to be an adult gradually entered her heart.

She smiled and gently put her right hand on his as she replied.

"I'll allow you to dance with me for an entire night because of your hard work today."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. With elegant steps, they entered the dance floor.

In the self-service area, Wayne and Abraham worked for an entire day but got nothing.

They held the whiskey barrel and sat in a corner, drinking one glass after another. Their crestfallen expressions scared the surrounding waiters away.

They didn't know what triggered them, but they suddenly threw their glasses away.

"Wah…" they hugged their heads and cried.

When the people around heard their cries, they couldn't help but be affected by their grief..Autumn night, a gentle breeze blew.

The men and women on the dance floor all had blissful smiles on their faces.

Kramer stood on the high wall and looked at everyone's blissful faces on the dance floor. He could not help but feel happy as well.

Administrator Officer Sevilino was always inseparable from his boss. Because of Alan's plan, the entire governor's mansion was busy during the Harvest Festival. Even he had to work separately from Kramer.

Now that the ball was in full swing, they could sigh in relief that the Harvest Festival was coming to a successful end.

"Hey, what do you think little Alan's brain is made of?" Kramer sighed.

"Not only can he brew so well, but he also has fantastic ideas. Compared to the previous festivals, this celebration is so much better!"

Sevilino was not surprised by the governor's exclamation and nodded repeatedly.

He felt the same way. He even felt that Alan had far more abilities. He must have many skills that people didn't know.

Sophia finished today's work after the drinking competition concluded.

She initially did not want to be a judge, but she could not resist the governor and the administrative officer.

In addition, if the Elf Tavern wanted to establish itself in the human world, she could not offend them too much. In the end, she could only agree.

When she came to the square and saw Orina and Alan dancing on the dance floor, she could no longer hide the sadness in her heart.

She silently watched the two of them for a long time. She suppressed the displeasure in her heart and was about to leave the square when she saw a big wine barrel on the curb beside her. Wayne and Abraham were hugging each other tightly and crying loudly.

She seemed to have thought of something, and actually walked towards them.

She looked down at them.

"You… want a drink?"

After a while, Wayne felt that something was wrong. He looked up and saw that it was the beautiful female elf boss of the Elf Tavern!

He didn't know what to say, so all he could do was dryly ask if she wanted a drink.

Unexpectedly, Sophia didn't refuse. Instead, she sat down beside Wayne.

Wayne was shocked by her behavior.

After Sophia sat down, she poured herself a glass of wine.

"You're in a bad mood?"

Wayne looked at the beautiful elf who was drinking alone beside him and asked.

For a long time, he didn't receive a response. Just when Wayne thought she wouldn't answer, Sophia spoke.

"Is this the tavern's new customer?"

Wayne looked in the direction of her finger. On the left, Abraham was already a little drunk, sitting on the ground and swaying.

"Yes, his name is Abraham. He's a good man. Alan likes him a lot," Wayne said with a smile.

The three of them sat side by side on the ground, with Wayne sitting in the middle.

Sophia nodded. She had not been to the tavern for a long time. She did not know that who was new and who had left.

Wayne saw that she did not want to talk. Even though he was a little drunk, he still drank with her.

After the dance, Alan was about to take Orina back when he heard a waiter passing by discussing in a low voice.

"There are three drunkards in the self-service area. They are drunk."

"I heard that one of them is a female elf. She is very beautiful."

The two seemed to have sensed something and looked at each other. They turned around and headed toward the place the waiters said. In the end, the situation over there was quite out of control.

Sophia, Wayne, and Abraham were all sitting on the ground.

Abraham sat alone on the side and Sophia was scolding him. He looked at the tall man who was curled up like a quail.

Mister Wayne was like a lackey, also scolding Abraham.

The Evil Lord of the Abyss seemed to have lost his dignity after coming to the human world…

Alan was surprised. Wasn't Sophia and mister Wayne on bad terms? Sophia disliked him.

But now, this trio combination looked very strange. What kind of magical chemical reaction was this?

Orina looked at Sophia, who was drunk, and was extremely surprised. This was the first time she saw Sophia drunk

In the past, Sofia was always the one to come to the tavern and lead her back. This time, roles were reversed.

"Mister Wayne, what are you guys doing?"

Alan's surprised voice caused the three of them to pause. Only Abraham's body emitted a cheerful aura.

It looked like the pitiful Evil Lord had been tormented by Sofia for quite some time.

"Mister Wayne, it's about time to head back. People still have to clean up the square. Don't disturb them."

Seeing that they didn't move, Alan waved his hand and urged them to head back quickly.

When everyone went home, Alan returned to the tavern alone. It was already late at night.

After an entire day of partying, Rock City fell into silence. Only rows of dim street lamps were still lit on the streets.

Following Alan's return, a small light lit up in the tavern. The light cast shadows on the glass windows.

Alan finally remembered his system and summoned the system in his mind to check the progress of his mission.

[ Mission 4 complete. The tavern has resounded throughout Rock City. ]

[ Obtained reward, a small gift pack of lifestyle blueprints, blueprints * 3]

[ New drink 'Burning Knife Soju' brewing method obtained. Brewing tools installed in the winery. ]

[ Congratulations to the host for achieving "minor reputation" achievement. Gold rank unlocked. Strength Wheat is eligible for purchase and can brew whiskey that can increase strength attributes. ]

[ Congratulations to the host for completing all missions in the novice stage. Mission completion rate is 99%. ]

[ Received the title "Novice Brewmaster". When you wear this title to brew drinks, everything you brew will taste slightly better. ]

A series of rewards were thrown at Alan, making him feel a little dizzy. Is this how it feels when a pie falls from the sky?

Alan, who was already exhausted, was instantly energized when he saw the generous rewards from the system.

He was awarded two new types of drinks this time. The Burning Knife Soju was a brand new drink, and the golden Strength Wheat was a new concept.

According to the elemental attributes of magic, there were as many as eight types. As for the strength attribute, if Alan's guess was correct, there should be more to come, such as agility, speed, defense, stamina, and other physical attributes.

According to this trend, the variety of magic drinks in the tavern would gradually increase.

The system also mentioned two new systems, titles and achievements. There were rewards for obtaining achievements, and the reward this time was unlocking a new brewing ingredient.

As for titles, there was an additional title pane on Alan's personal attributes panel. There were three spaces on it and a row of gray spaces at the back. He predicted that he could continue to unlock them in the future.

When he chose a title to wear, there would be special attribute bonuses attached. It was like the system was giving Alan an extra cheat.

This was what made Alan the happiest.

After studying the new functions in the system, Alan turned his attention to the system store that was related to his wallet.

Among the rows of gray brewing materials, there was a second special raw material that lit up. Besides the magic grape, there was a golden wheat icon.

One gold coin, 100 kg

Alan was quite satisfied with this price. One gold coin was acceptable for Alan, who had three digits worth of gold coins in his account.

Compared to the price of ordinary whiskey, Alan planned to charge three copper coins for a glass of strength-attribute whiskey. He did not think that was too expensive.

He had more means to earn money. Although he was no longer poor, there were still many modern gadgets in the mall. If he could buy them, his quality of life would increase greatly!

As he browsed through the goods in the shopping mall, Alan secretly calculated which items he could exchange quickly. Moreover, they would be the ones that Orina liked.

Whenever he thought of that elven girl who was so beautiful that she didn't seem to exist in the human world, Ala couldn't help but smile..

Alan did not know how he fell asleep.

After waking up exhausted in the morning, his memory was still on what he was preparing for Orina.

All the residents in the city participated in the festival yesterday. After a whole day of commotion, waking up early was not possible.

At least when Alan woke up, the streets outside were still quiet and there was no sound at all.

Alan, who was still in a daze, suddenly remembered that he did not finish studying the system last night. He opened the system panel in his mind.

Novice stage missions? 99% completion? Where did he leave the remaining 1%? The system did not give him any hints, so he had no idea.

There was also a small gift pack of lifestyle blueprints that he had never seen before.

Alan opened the small pack and three ordinary-looking blueprints appeared in the system backpack.

He took the blueprints out of his system backpack and three thin sheets of paper materialized in his hands. Alan was shocked after flipping through them.

One of the three blueprints was a detailed blueprint for a magic generator that the system modified. The other was a blueprint for the electric lamp. There was also a detailed circuit diagram attached to it. Finally, there was the blueprint for a Mahjong set and an explanation of the rules.

They were all extremely useful blueprints. The generator and the electric lamp were infrastructures that could change the entire hailar continent. Their existence would cause a qualitative change in the industrial structure of the continent.

Mahjong was the national essence of the country that Alan belonged to in his previous life. It was the greatest and most prosperous entertainment activity. China had been around for 5000 years, and Mahjong had been passed down for 4000 years. Time was the best indicator of how popular it was.

However, Alan suddenly frowned. The blueprints were good, but… he couldn't make them…

In his previous life, Alan was just an ordinary office worker. His job was to organize all kinds of data. He was unskilled to do such technical and manual work.

"Sigh, there's no other way. I can only put all this on hold for now."

He muttered as he put the blueprints in his bedroom.

He completed Mission Four, and the system published a new mission. This mission made Alan think.

[ Congratulation to the host for successfully passing the novice stage and becoming a novice brewmaster. Technology is the foundation of development, mission chain published. ]

[ Mission Five, Phase One mission, make Rock City a nightless city. ]

Having a generator and electric light blueprints and the new mission of making Rock City a nightless city, Alan wondered what the system's purpose was.

Could it be that it wanted him to initiate an industrial revolution in this foreign world?

To change the entire world's production infrastructure by himself!?

Alan shook his head and tossed out his wild thoughts.

After studying the system, he began his daily routine.

When he came to the winery and was about to try brewing the new drinks, he saw a small crack in the wine cellar door next to him, and his heart suddenly jumped.

Alan's mind raced as he looked at this unusual scene. The wine cellar was one of the most important places in the entire tavern, it stored all of his inventory.

Alan picked up the broom in the backyard and carefully pushed the door open. As the door gradually opened, he saw the situation in the wine cellar.

Next to the wine barrel on the left side of the wine cellar, he saw a huge cat covered in black fur lying on the ground.

Alan was shocked. This… This was a cat? His eyes lit up with a burning light.

Could this be a gift from the heavens!? To make up for his regret of never being a cat owner in two lifetimes?

Alan curiously went forward to take a look. The more he looked, the more he liked it.

The big cat in front of him was covered in black satin-like fur. It was pure black without a single bit of color.

Suddenly, the big cat in front of him became bigger and smaller with every breath.

Alan clicked his tongue in wonder. Even cats had magic power in this foreign world. This ability to change the size of its body was amazing!

He secretly made up his mind that when the big cat woke up, he would think of a way to keep it in the tavern.

Perhaps because his love for cats gained the upper hand, Alan gradually lost his vigilance. He put down the broom in his hand and walked to the black cat that was gradually shrinking to the size of a normal cat in the wine cellar.

He had an infatuated look on his face and carefully reached out his hand to pet it. He was treating it like he was handling a rare treasure.

After the black cat snuck into the wine cellar yesterday, it drank an entire barrel of high-level magic Lafite. Until now, it had been unconscious for an entire day. It was not only drunk but also because the magic power in its body was too large, it needed time to digest.

Alan's big hand gently placed on the cat's back and stroked its fur. After finding that was asleep and had no reaction, he boldly picked up the black cat.

His mouth let out an indecipherable chuckle.

Until it shrunk to the size of a normal cat, he hugged the cat again. Alan finally found out the reason why the cat was so deep asleep.

"Little guy, how much of my wine did you drink?" Alan muttered.

He held the cat in his arms, stood up, and looked around the wine cellar to find out how much the little guy had drunk.

Without much effort, he saw that the switch on the wine barrel in his hand was open. He shook the wine barrel and not a single drop of wine flowed out.

Alan was shocked. He carefully looked at the label on the wine barrel, "100-year-old high-level magic Lafite," and then reached out to shake the wine barrel again, but there was still no wine. The barrel was empty…

The cat in his arms drank an entire barrel of high-level magic Lafite in one go!

Alan did not know whether to laugh or cry. On one hand, he felt sorry for his wine. On the other hand, he was immersed in the joy of having a cat.

"Forget it. Having a cat is the most important thing. No matter how much it can drink, can it drink faster than I can brew it?"

Alan, who was feeling conflicted, suddenly persuaded himself adamantly.

Then, Alan ignored the mess in the wine cellar and lost all desire to brew new drinks. Now, all he cared about was the little black cat in his arms.

It was not a crime to pet the cat while it was drunk!

Alan returned to the tavern and sat on the sofa in the booth. He gently placed the curled-up black cat, who was sleeping soundly, on the table.

The tablecloth on the table was used as a small nest to cushion the cat. Alan laid on the table and maintained eye level with the little cat, smiling like an idiot.

No one knew how long this "the cat and the human" scene lasted, but when the black cat finally absorbed most of the magic power in its body, it gradually woke up.

Before it opened its eyes, it already sensed its surroundings.

It realized that it was no longer in the cellar, and there was a human close by. It felt a burning gaze.

What was even more terrifying was that this human was creepily smiling at it.

Countless thoughts flashed through the black cat's mind, debating whether it should pretend to be asleep or run away immediately.

It felt that the magic power in its body improved substantially compared to yesterday, but it could not use it at all!

"Hey, little guy, you're awake, right? Let's have a little chat."

When the black cat woke up, its breathing changed. Alan was perceptive enough to detect it and thus decided to talk to it.

"Don't pretend anymore. You were shaking unnaturally a few times just now, and the large eyeballs under your eyelids were moving too frequently. These all indicate that you're awake, and you can understand what I'm saying, right?"

Alan tried his best to keep his voice calm, trying his best not to let his enthusiasm scare the little guy.

Even though the black cat was reluctant, it still opened its eyes and squatted on the table, staring at Alan with its emerald-like eyes.

Then

The black cat tilt its head and meowed with an innocent look.

"Whoa…" Alan held his chest with one hand and took a deep breath. "Who can resist that look…"

The black cat saw that the man across from it was instantly conquered by its looks and muttered in its heart, "Hmph, this meow's beauty is unparalleled in the world. How can anyone resist it!"

"Forget it, forget it. Since you don't want to talk, then let's not talk for now. However, you drank my magic wine, so I can't let you leave so easily unless you pay. If you don't have the money to pay, then you have to stay in my tavern and work to pay off your debts!"

After being stunned for a short while, Alan came back to his senses and said seriously.

The black cat's face stiffened. It realized that it was still unable to use its magic powers and was a little flustered.

It could not guess what the man was trying to do. Besides, the wine here was delicious.

So the black cat raised its head and rolled its eyes. Its face had an arrogant look with no intention of leaving.

Alan's expression did not change, but he was laughing inside.

Just like that, under his shameless persuasion, the black cat stayed in the tavern..

After making sure that the black cat would not leave, Alan went to prepare to open the tavern.

The black cat wandered around the tavern. When Alan saw that the cat wanted to sneak into the wine cellar again, he quickly grabbed the back of the cat's neck and returned the cat to the bar counter.

Alan placed the black cat on the bar counter and looked at it while saying, "Don't think about going into the wine cellar again. You will have your freedom when you pay me the money you owe for the wine."

"Before that, just stay by my side and strive to become an outstanding 'lucky cat'."

The black cat looked at Alan, who was talking non-stop, with an impatient expression on its face. It looked as if this meow was so annoyed at this young man that it did not even want to look at him.

"Oh right, I should give you a name. Otherwise, it doesn't sound so nice calling you 'black cat' all the time."

Alan was talking to himself as he pondered.

The black cat was constantly making fun of him in his heart.

"I'll call you Ai Xiaohei. We'll share the same surname and you'll be my cat from now on."

Alan clenched his left hand into a fist and lightly tapped his right palm as he said excitedly.

Upon hearing this name, the black cat looked angry. He couldn't help but meow loudly, cursing Alan in his heart.

"My owner is the Demon King, I don't want a new owner!"

"What kind of lousy name did this lousy human give me! It's so lame! I don't want to share your surname!"

Seeing Ai Xiaohei grimacing in anger, Alan was amused.

Although he felt that Ai Xiaohei was silently cursing him, it was the cat's fault for not speaking. Since the cat did not say what his name was, then I'll give you a name.

"Just sit here. There are usually no customers at the bar. Don't worry."

"Also, don't run around anymore, or I'll deduct your salary. It's forbidden to slack off during working hours, Ai Xiaohei."

Alan reached out and touched Ai Xiaohei's furry little head. Yes, it felt quite good. Magical beasts were different from ordinary cats in his previous life. They are much easier to pet than ordinary cats.

Ai Xiaohei sighed as if he accepted his fate and lowered his head.

Looking at Alan, who was busy at the bar counter, he lay down in the corner of the bar counter. He squinted his eyes and pretended to be asleep. His thick black tail was swaying left and right, indicating that he was in a good mood.

Alan was open for business in the afternoon.

The moment he opened the door, he was shocked to see a group of people gathered outside the tavern door. When they saw the tavern open, their eyes instantly fell on Alan.

"Hey, Hey, the door is open, the door is open. That must be the boss. He's so young…"

"He was the one who provided the wine for the festival yesterday. Both of them are new drinks. I heard that those drinks are not cheap."

"The tavern also sells magic wine. I've tried it before, the effects are super good!"

"Wow, I'm so envious that you knew about this tavern early on."

Before Alan could react, the group of people swarmed in while still talking about the tavern.

From the time Alan opened the door to when the crowd pushed him behind the door, the tavern was already full of customers…

Business was booming today!

"Little boss, hurry up and serve some drinks. I want whiskey!"

"Me too."

"Same here."

"I want Lafite over here!"

The customers were already seated. Seeing that Alan was still stunned by the door, they urged him loudly.

Alan quickly responded and went to the bar counter to prepare drinks for each customer.

Alan looked at how lively his tavern was as soon as he opened the door and was overjoyed. His tavern was one step closer to becoming the tavern in his imagination.

Alan was very happy to see the satisfied expressions on his customers after drinking.

He looked at Ai Xiaohei, who was lying in a corner pretending to sleep. He could not help but pat his little head and say, "Ai Xiaohei, you might as well stay in my tavern. You're my little lucky star!"

Ai Xiaohei pricked up his ears and listened to Alan's words. Although he did not face Alan, judging from the frequency of his tail wagging, he was very happy at Alan's praises.

Alan was not sad even though he did not receive a response. He looked at the lively scene in his tavern with a smile on his face. The customers were all smiling happily, drinking and chatting in groups of twos and threes.

Not long after the tavern opened for business, Orina came.

After entering, she was shocked to see that the tavern was already full so early in the afternoon.

Then, she saw Alan standing behind the bar counter waving at her with a smile. She quickly walked over.

Her seat was empty. Despite the full tavern, no one sat in her seat. Even the two seats next to hers were empty.

Orina was very satisfied with Alan's attentiveness. She sat down at her usual seat with a bright smile.

"Why are you here so early today?" Alan asked.

"Well…" Orina's smile froze.

Alan felt that she was instantly a little disappointed.

"I'm here to say goodbye. I'm about to return to my clan."

Even though she was smiling, Alan could still feel the disappointment in her smile. He was also a little disappointed.

"Boss, serve me more wine here."

Just as Alan was about to answer her, a customer called for him to serve wine.

Seeing that their conversation was interrupted, Alan felt a little helpless and could only smile apologetically at Orina.

"Give me a few minutes."

Orina sat elegantly on the chair and drank her wine while waiting for Alan to finish his work.

While waiting, she caught a glimpse of a dark figure at the corner of the bar counter. She was sure that this thing never appeared in the tavern before.

The moment Orina entered the bar, Ai Xiaohei immediately sensed her power. His hair stood on end as he tried his best to hide his presence.

Seeing Orina walking closer to the bar counter, he was very nervous. He could only try his best to curl up and hide his presence.

Unfortunately, he could not hide…

After Alan left, Orina had nothing to focus her attention on, so she easily found Ai Xiaohei who was hiding not far from the bar counter.

She felt a dark power emanating from Ai Xiaohei.

She frowned and pulled Ai Xiaohei out from the corner.

Knowing that he could no longer hide, the cat immediately put on an innocent expression and looked at her pitifully, trying to get her to release him.

"Don't look at me with that expression. I don't buy it," Orina said with a cold face.

"You'd better tell me honestly, you Abyssal creature, what is your purpose of getting close to Alan?"

Under Orina's gaze, Ai Xiaohei began to sweat. He was forced to rely on his hind legs to stand on the bar counter as she grabbed his two front legs. The cat and the elf stared at each other.

Orina's aura was too strong. Under her gaze, Ai Xiaohei broke out in cold sweat. He was struggling to maintain the pitiful expression on his face…

It wasn't until Alan finished his work and returned to the bar counter did he rescue the cat from Orina's grasp.

"Orina, let him go. He's not a bad guy. Ai Xiaohei, you're not going to hurt me, right?" Alan said with a laugh.

To escape, Ai Xiaohei no longer pretended that he did not understand the human language. He quickly nodded and agreed with Alan's words, trying to prove to Orina that he was harmless.

"He's a creature from the Abyss, Alan. The Abyss is very dangerous!"

Orina said seriously, afraid that Alan did not understand the evil and terror of the Abyss.

Alan just smiled and took Ai Xiaohei from Orina. He held the cat in his arms and stroked his furry head to comfort him.

As soon as Ai Xiaohei was in Alan's arms, he rubbed his head against him and tried his best to please Alan.

Alan comforted him and then looked at Orina.

"Don't worry. I know a little about the Abyss, and Ai Xiaohei is not evil."

Seeing that Orina was still worried, he could only try his best to comfort her.

"By the way, did you say that you were going back to the elf clan?" Alan changed the topic.

Seeing him like this, Orina only sighed and suppressed the worry in her heart.

"The great elder sent news that the Abyss Passage has been unusually active recently. I need to go back and be on guard. I also need to reinforce the seal."

After Orina spoke, she glared at Ai Xiaohei, who kept shrinking into Alan's arms..Orina saw the way Ai Xiaohei kept acting cute in Alan's arms and was furious. She pulled her out of Alan's arms once again.

"Let me see if you're a male or a female. What's the meaning of you trying to crawl into someone's arms?"

Alan looked at the childish Orina and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He did not stop her and quietly watched Orina torment Ai Xiaohei.

Ai Xiaohei once again fell into the hands of the powerful female elf. This time, she knew that Alan would protect her, so she didn't act as pathetic as before.

Knowing what Orina was going to do to it, she tried to resist desperately. She meowed miserably, trying to make Alan feel pity.

However, Orina was determined to know the gender. Her two slender hands firmly controlled the cat, not letting her break free at all.

"Hmph, as expected, it's a female. Cats are just like foxes, shameless creatures."

As she spoke in anger, she threw the useless Ai Xiaohei aside.

She glared angrily at Alan and said, "If you want to raise her, you're not allowed to hug her in the future!"

Alan was laughing secretly as he tilt his head to the side. When he heard her demand, his heart skipped a beat. Not allowed to hug her?

Wouldn't that reduce the fun of raising a cat by more than half?

Looking at the young man's shocked expression, Orina's face was gloomy. She glared at him to warn him.

Alan had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"If I raise a male cat in the future then I'll be able to hug him, right?"

Orina snorted lightly and turned her head away arrogantly, deliberately ignoring Alan.

She suddenly realized the ambiguity in her words. Saying this made it feel as if the two of them were going to live together in the future.

Orina secretly glanced at Alan's reaction. Seeing that he did not refuse, her heart was filled with sweetness.

Alan, who still wanted to say something, was called away by a customer again.

Taking advantage of Alan's absence, Orina gave a fierce warning to Ai Xiaohei.

Without Alan by her side, Ai Xiaohei did not dare to resist. The way she looked like a bullied wife made Orina even angrier.

Throughout the afternoon, Alan circled among the customers. Whenever he had a quick break, he returned to the bar to watch Orina educate Ai Xiaohei.

The sun gradually set. Soon, Orina was going to leave. This time, she still needed to return to the forest overnight.

"Orina, next time you come, I'll prepare a gift for you. It'll be something that you've never seen before."

Alan smiled as he looked at Orina, who was about to leave.

Although he hoped that she could stay in Rock City and come drink every day, but, just as Sophia had said, Orina had her mission.

However, Alan could not say anything to persuade her to stay. He also had his mission. As long as he managed the tavern well and waited there, his friends would always come back.

Orina smiled, nodded slightly, and left the tavern.

After Orina left, Alan put away the reluctance in his heart and was once again drowned by the enthusiasm of his customers.

When the sky finally turned completely dark, Wayne and Abraham walked into the tavern side by side.

The two of them looked well, as if they already walked out of the sadness of yesterday's failure.

The lively scene in the tavern shocked every regular customer who entered the door.

The usually empty tavern was crowded today.

When Wayne and the others came, only the bar was still empty.

"Mister, Abraham, good evening!" Alan greeted the two with a smile.

"Little Alan, why is it so crowded today?" Mister Wayne asked puzzledly.

"It's probably because the festival yesterday was well received. Today, the tavern has been full since it opened."

Alan explained cheerfully while preparing Lafite for the two of them.

Hearing Alan mention yesterday, Wayne and Abraham were tense. Yesterday was not a good day for them.

"Oh right, what happened to you two yesterday? I heard from the guests that you two had quite an interesting time."

Alan thought of what he heard from the guests and was shocked.

Many of the guests who came today knew mister Wayne. The things that happened at the festival, the unreliable things that he did with Abraham, after a night of rumors, had spread throughout Rock City…

"Uh… let's not talk about what happened yesterday." Wayne smiled awkwardly.

"Hmph, if it wasn't because Wayne, that fool, wanting to win your reward, do you think your lord would do all that with him?"

The hooded Abraham was like a different person, always speaking with an air of superiority.

He saw Wayne stuttering and unwilling to admit his own stupidity. His plan even caused him to be embarrassed in front of everyone, so he said angrily.

"If you didn't want the reward as well, you wouldn't have done everything with me! Just because my plan failed, you can't blame everything on me…"

Wayne argued unwillingly.

"It's mainly your fault!"

"If you continue to be like this, then I'll make you pay me for your drinks that I covered for your these last few days and the rent you owe me for staying in my blacksmith shop."

Wayne was angry, but he couldn't find any words to refute him, so he could only use money to threaten him.

"You…" Abraham, who didn't have money, was about to defend himself.

"Alright, Alright, both of you calm down. It's not worth getting angry over something so small. Besides…"

"Mister Wayne, with our relationship, you think I won't let you guys try my new drinks first?"

Alan interrupted their argument. He deliberately lowered his voice and whispered to the two of them.

Hearing Alan's promise, Wayne's eyes lit up. Abraham snorted lightly to show that he didn't care, but he was already smiling brightly under his hood.

When he turned his head, Abraham finally saw the black cat lazily lying on the bar counter. He was shocked.

When Ai Xiaohei saw Abraham, she knew that the Evil Lord she was looking for was here. It was just a bad time to run into him.

Abraham's heart was turbulent. Wasn't this black cat the Demon King's beloved pet?

The cat's strength wasn't strong among the Demon King's battle pets, but she knew how to make Demon King happy, to the point that the Demon King brought her everywhere he went.

Could this be the helper that the Demon King found for him?

What could she do? Her attack capabilities were 0 but her coquettish skills were 100. Was she planning on conquering the human world by acting cute?

Thinking of this, Abraham had an epiphany. Was this the Demon King's plan? Did he exaggerate his struggles in his call that day?

Could it be that the Demon King thought that the human world couldn't be conquered by force, so he decided to use a different strategy and rely on his battle pet to act cute and conquer the human world!?

In an instant, Abraham's respect for the Demon King collapsed by half…

Alan saw Abraham staring at the corner and followed his line of sight. He saw that Ai Xiaohei was staring at him with interest.

Thinking that both of them were from the Abyss, Alan felt that they might have known each other for a long time.

"Abraham, that's Ai Xiaohei, the tavern's new cat."

Although he guessed that they might know each other, Alan still said the name Ai Xiaohei.

No matter whose cat you used to be, you are now my cat.. I changed your name and claimed ownership!Wayne only noticed the black cat in the corner when he heard the conversation between the two.

When he looked closely, he found that the cat was a little strange. The magic power in her body contained traces of dark magic.

Although she wasn't like Abraham, whose magic power was filled with a thick aura of the Abyss, he could still feel traces of the Abyss in the black cat's body.

What Wayne did not know was that after Ai Xiaohei secretly drank an entire barrel of high-level magic Lafite, her magic power was cleansed.

The Abyssal aura in her body dissipated little by little while she was drinking. Now, the magic power in Ai Xiaohei was similar to the magic power that ordinary magical beasts on the Hailar continent cultivated. If she remained in the human world, Ai Xiaohei's abyssal aura would completely disappear.

"Pfft…"

After hearing the name that Alan gave her, Abraham laughed out loud.

He was very familiar with the Demon King's favorite magical pet. When she was in the Abyss, she had always been quite arrogant and domineering.

However, now that she came to the human world and landed in this mysterious tavern, not only was she no longer arrogant, she even lost her magnificent name and received a new pet-like name… Abraham couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Abraham, damn it, stop laughing!"

"Just you wait. The day this meow conquers this unreasonable human is the day you fail your vanguard mission. When that day comes, let's see how you'll answer to the Demon King!"

Alan and Wayne only heard Ai Xiaohei meowing, but Abraham heard her exasperatingly cursing at him in his heart.

"Alright, alright, Ai Xiaohei, you're still on the clock. Be polite to the guests or else I'll dock your pay."

Alan reached out to hug Ai Xiaohei, who dashed in front of Abraham fuming with anger, and comforted her softly.

"Besides, you're a girl. Don't be so rude. Have you forgotten what Orina told you this afternoon?"

Ai Xiaohei couldn't escape his controlling grip. She was furious. If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't use any of her magic power for some reason, she would give this mysterious young man a hard slap…

Alan stopped the flustered Ai Xiaohei and scratched her chin a few times.

Perhaps it was because the scratching was too comfortable, Ai Xiaohei gradually calmed down and started purring. Her eyes that were round from anger also narrowed. It looked like she was enjoying it.

Wayne was puzzled. He could not understand these two visitors from the Abyss.

"Little Alan, do you know the background of the cat in your hand?"

"I do. Orina told me when she came by this afternoon. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, Ai Xiaohei won't hurt me."

Alan repeated what Orina told him this afternoon. Alan did not show any impatience toward the people who cared about him.

Speaking of the Abyss, Alan glanced at Abraham who was busy glaring at Ai Xiaohei, and did not notice the way Alan looked at him.

Wayne saw the look in Alan's eyes and understood.

Although Alan did not have any magic power, in terms of intelligence, no one in Rock City could compare to him. The look in his eyes just now showed that he already knew Abraham's identity, so he didn't have to worry about Ai Xiaohei. He knew what he was doing, otherwise, Orina would have dealt with the black cat already.

Since the black cat was still alive and well by Alan's side, it proved that Orina felt that she was harmless to Alan.

Wayne was relieved to know that Alan was on guard against the Abyss.

Thinking about it, even if these fools from the Abyss wanted to play tricks, they wouldn't be able to fool Alan.

Thus, Wayne just sat at the side and watched the two peacefully

As night fell, the streets were filled with people rushing home or rushing towards the small tavern.

The guests were constantly calling Alan to refill their drinks, so he was constantly busy.

Wayne drank his wine and looked at the battle between Abraham and Ai Xiaohei. The more he looked the more interested he became in their interaction. He even looked forward to being able to go to the Abyss to take a look. The demons of the Abyss seemed to be an interesting race.

After Abraham and Ai Xiaohei ran into each other, they began exchanging information.

"I've only been here for one day and I already discovered what's going on in the tavern's wine cellar. What about you, Evil Lord? Did you find any useful information?"

"Hmph, of course, but why should I tell you? Are you planning to have a new master now?"

"Nonsense! I've been the Demon King's most loyal and number one companion all my life. I'm just pretending to submit to that human's power and lurk by his side to seize the tavern as the demon's stronghold in the human world as soon as possible!"

"You? Without any attacking powers, what else can you do besides changing your body shape at will? And let me tell you, that young man is very mysterious. You'd better be careful not to expose yourself. If that happens, you'll implicate me as well."

Abraham and Ai Xiaohei argued with each other in their hearts. Neither of them was convinced by the other. In the end, they barely reached a consensus.

Before they successfully seize the tavern, they would temporarily hide information that they have on the human world from the Demon King.

As for how they would seize the tavern, they would follow their own plans. No one would disturb the other.

Abraham's current plan was to start with Wayne. He knew that Wayne was someone that Alan cared about very much.

And Alan cared a lot about the people that he was close with.

Abraham's plan was somewhat successful. Recently, he had been living in the blacksmith shop and was even learning forging techniques from Wayne.

Even though he was the Evil Lord, he had to admire that rugged-looking man. Even in the demon world, his forging techniques were definitely top-notch.

As for Ai Xiaohei, she originally came to the human world to collaborate with the Evil Lord. But since they couldn't reach an agreement, then never mind.

She was confident that even if she was alone, she would be able to complete the Demon King's mission.

Of course, she had to complete the mission before that super powerful female elf returned. That woman was too strong and too troublesome.

The demon and the cat each had their ulterior motives but had the same goal. Alan, who was the target, did not realize this at this time. He even felt that he had full control of the situation.

The day before, Wayne and Abraham drank too much whiskey so Alan did not let them drink any more high-alcohol alcohol drinks tonight. He only let mister Wayne drink magic Lafite to heal his injuries.

The moon was high in the sky.

The customers in the tavern gradually left.

Wayne dragged Abraham out. They were the last to leave.

Back at the blacksmith shop, Wayne fell asleep as soon as he laid down on his bed. On the other hand, Abraham took out his diary.

Hailar calendar: Day five after invading the human world.

The Demon King sent his most useless companion to assist me in completing the mission. I can't guess what the Demon King is thinking.

But the name Ai Xiaohei is perfect for that useless stupid cat!

I don't care to collaborate with pets. For the Demon King's mission, I already have a perfect plan. As long as the stupid cat doesn't get in the way, I believe I will complete my mission soon.

When the time comes, the Demon King will praise me.

Today's intelligence gathering was drinking.

Checking his diary entry, smiling at what he wrote, closing the diary, and placing the diary back in his coat, Abraham finally lay down to rest.

After the publicity from the Harvest Festival, the tavern's business was booming. Although all of this was within Alan's plan, it was also a sweet burden.

After losing his best employee, Yupanki, Alan's no longer had a leisurely life. After opening the tavern, he was always circling among the customers. Alan eagerly put the matter of finding new employees on his agenda..The day after the Harvest Festival, Orina returned to the Elf clan. Sofia had not come to the tavern for a long time.

Alan did not dwell on it. He just thought that the Elf Tavern had been busy.

Soon, it would be the second delivery to the elf clan. When that time came, he would be able to see Sofia. If she did not come to drink before that, he would wait until then to ask her what was wrong.

Today, Alan planned to brew the new drink. Because of Ai Xiaohei, he had to postpone his brewing plan yesterday.

When Alan came to the backyard, Ai Xiaohei was sleeping soundly on the deck chair in the backyard.

He smiled and shook his head. He did not wake her up and quietly entered his distillery.

Yesterday, he promised Orina that he would not hug Ai Xiaohei. Last night, when he went to bed, Alan had to force himself not to hug her to sleep.

Ai Xiaohei saw that no matter how cute she acted, he would not allow her on his bed. So, she angrily slammed the door and left.

Alan was not worried about her leaving at all. He could feel that Abyss seemed to be very interested in him, or rather, interested in his tavern.

Whether it was Abraham or Ai Xiaohei, both of them refused to leave after meeting him.

He ignored Ai Xiaohei who was throwing a tantrum and slept soundly as usual.

When he woke up in the morning, Alan saw that she was not sleeping very well at the bar counter downstairs. He was even more certain of his assumptions.

The Abyss was interested in him or the tavern. Abraham and Ai Xiaohei came to the human world with a mission, so they would not leave until they completed their mission.

As for the fluctuation in the Abyss Passage, that was probably due to the two of them crossing the barrier into the human world.

Orina went back to strengthen the barrier. She would probably soon find that there was no problem at all.

Alan felt that she would be back soon, so he had to prepare the small gift that he promised her as soon as possible.

The new drink that Alan obtained this time, the Burning Knife Soju, was a type of strong liquor from his own country in his previous life.

It was mainly popular in the ancient Liaodong region. It had high alcohol content and its taste was strong. It tasted like fire, hence its name. It was an unseasoned liquor.

It was also a distilled liquor. It was usually made from starch or sugar as raw materials into a fermented mash.

The liquor was usually transparent or slightly yellow. It had a fragrant smell and was sweet and clean when it entered the mouth. The alcohol content was relatively high.

After being stored and aged, it had a compound fragrance with esters as the main body.

It was made from koji and distilled using saccharifying fermenters. Starch and sugar were the raw materials. It was steamed, saccharified, fermented, distilled, aged, and finally brewed.

After reading the brewing instructions and familiarizing himself with the steps, Alan put on his newly earned "Novice Brewmaster" title in the system.

As he began brewing, Alan's expression became serious and focused. He did not even notice when Ai Xiaohei entered through the crack of the door.

This was the first time Ai Xiaohei saw a human brewing liquor. In the Abyss, liquor was a very rare thing. After all, the Abyss did not produce much food, and the raw materials needed for brewing were rare.

She watched as Alan took each step seriously and placed the various materials in different proportions into those strange-looking machines.

As the machines operated, a fragrance gradually wafted out.

Ai Xiaohei was extremely shocked. So this was brewing drinks. It required a lot of food and was very complicated…

The distillery was set up using spatial magic, so the interior was much larger than what one could see from the outside.

So far, Alan had three different brewing machines, but the interior did not seem crowded at all.

Alan finished replenishing the few types of drinks sold, and his work in the distillery came to an end.

When he came out, Ai Xiaohei was awake and was lying on the chair, licking her fur.

Alan wondered if he should prepare some cat supplies?

He was not alone now. When he thought about how he was already a cat owner at such a young age, he could not help but laugh.

This was the life he wanted!

In the afternoon, the tavern was open for business as usual.

Today, the tavern was full again. The popularity of the tavern would not decline in the new future. It might even get better and better.

In the evening, mister Wayne and Abraham came to the tavern. Mister Dorje and the others also came. It had been a while since Alan saw all of them drinking together.

Alan greeted everyone. Mister Dorje and the others saw Ai Xiaohei squatting at a conspicuous spot on the bar counter. Her black and shiny fur was quite eye-catching.

According to Alan's request, Ai Xiaohei had to act as a "lucky cat" during business hours. Only by paying off her debt as soon as possible would she be free again.

"Oh, little Alan has a cat. Your cat is quite beautiful."

Mister Knapp complimented Ai Xiaohei the moment he arrived. Abraham didn't say anything but rolled his eyes under his hood. He was cursing this bunch of backwood bumpkins who had never seen the world and thought that this dumb cat was beautiful.

After Ai Xiaohei heard his praise, she subconsciously straightened her furry chest and raised her neck. The expression on her face became haughty.

Alan saw this and couldn't help but silently laugh. Sure enough, felines were proud creatures, no matter which world they were in.

Perhaps it was because there were more people that night, mister Wayne and the others were very excited.

The customers in the tavern gradually dispersed.

The last ones left were still Wayne and Abraham.

"Drink for your lord!"

After drinking too much, Abraham took off his hood early on and grabbed Ai Xiaohei into his arms to force-fed her whiskey.

Alan could not save her in time. By the time he realized it, Ai Xiaohei already downed several glasses of whiskey.

He snatched Ai Xiaohei from Abraham's arms and placed her on the table. The moment her legs landed on the table, she staggered but quickly steadied herself.

Wayne just laughed loudly at the side, not feeling that Abraham was going overboard at all.

"Abraham, what are you doing? Ai Xiaohei is a girl!"

Alan looked at Ai Xiaohei, who was already shaking left and right, and yelled at Abraham.

"Your lord is the Evil Lord and she is but a mere useless magical pet, even if she is a female. So what if your lord wants her to drink? In the Abyss, she doesn't have the right to drink even if she wants to."

From what Abraham said, it was obvious that he was already drunk.

Before Alan could say anything, Ai Xiaohei, the little traitor, nodded her head excitedly as if that was the case.

Then, she acted as if she was Abraham's friend and started meowing at him.

Initially, Ai Xiaohei acted as if she didn't want to drink with them. After "being forced" to drink a few glasses, she started chatting with Abraham.

Alan did not understand her meows, but he could guess a little from Abraham's actions.

Abraham poured an empty glass of whiskey on the table and pushed it in front of her. The strong aroma of alcohol and wheat made Ai Xiaohei intoxicated.

During the day, when she peeked at Alan while he was brewing she was already craving for a taste. At night, using Abraham's drunken behavior, she finally got to drink. She purposely let Abraham catch her.

"Meow Meow… Meow Meow Meow…"

"Although the human world is good, our Abyss compatriots are still waiting for us to bring good news back."

"Meow Meow Meow…"

"Your lord will complete the mission because your lord is the Demon King's most powerful right-hand man!"

..

Alan and Wayne looked at each other. What was going on with these two Abyss fools? They exposed themselves so easily. Weren't they afraid?

Wayne was also at a loss. He felt that he sobered up quite a bit.

The two of them looked helpless. They couldn't help but sigh. Was the Great War between Gods and Demons a joke? How was such a foolish race able to completely dominate the war even after the eight great races united?

When the meowing Ai Xiaohei finally passed out, Abraham no longer tried to hold on. He fell on the table without any movement.

After mister Wayne carried Abraham away, Alan cleaned up the tavern.

After tidying up Ai Xiaohei, who was snoring loudly, he also went upstairs to sleep..
