Vampire's Planet, Vampire Empire Capital, Cocktail Bar, 9:00 a.m.
In queen's bedroom where queen slept like beauty, when she was slumber like water lily, when she woke up and leaned against window, she smiled at trees garnished with crystal snow.
"Teleport to Cocktail Bar in Vampire Empire Capital!"
Morgana opened a portal by her side, walking inside, descending at Cocktail Bar in Vampire Empire Capital. She looked around, and checked the surroundings. There were many different types of cocktails. Sitting at bar counter, watching upon different types of cocktails, she thought.
'Vampire Empire is famous for its cocktails. Queen's red wine is a type of cocktail. It's considered as the best cocktail. I have tasted a thousand types of cocktails. I want to change my taste.'
James who was the bartender at Cocktail Bar, he was washing wine glasses. He laid down wine glass, and peaked at Morgana. He hadn't ever met Morgana, but he met the Statue of the Goddess of Darkness.
"Good morning, your majesty! Welcome to Cocktail Bar! I'm James, the bartender here. It's been a great honor for me to meet queen. What kind of drink do you like?"
James introduced himself with vampire's manner, bowing to Morgana with respect. He considered queen's coming as a great honor, because queen's coming would be the best hype. Feeling spirit lifted, waiting for queen's order, he thought.
'If queen's visit was published, the bar's business will be booming. If queen favored a type of cocktail, the cocktail will be addressed as queen's red wine. If the cocktail got the address of queen's red wine, Vampire Empire will rise a popular red wine brew.'
Morgana sat at bar counter, looking at cocktail's garnishments, looking at cocktail's colors. Some cocktails were red with hues of blood, garnished with cherry. Some cocktails were orange, garnished with orange. Some cocktails were yellow, garnished with lemon. Some cocktail were green, garnished with green apple. Some cocktails were blue, garnished with blue berry.
"No, thank you! I have tasted one thousand types of cocktails here. I want to change my taste." Morgana continued, "Hello, Victoria!"
Morgana opened a portal, summoning Victoria. She had tasted a thousand types of cocktails here. She could know cocktail's ingredients through gazing at cocktail's colors and garnishments. Gazing at red cocktail, analyzing its ingredients, she thought.
'Vampires desire blood, and invenst different types of cocktails to improve their taste. Red cocktail's ingredients are two types of famous wines, one dash Angostura Bitters, one dash magic creature's blood and one scarlet fruit.'
Victoria saw a portal by her side, walking inside, shifting to Cocktail Bar. She looked around, and checked the surroundings. There were many different types of cocktails at the bar counter.
"Good morning, your majesty! Welcome to Vampire Empire! Vampire Empire is famous for our cocktails. What kind of drink do you like? Do you want to have a glass of queen's red wine?"
Victoria bowed to Morgana with respect, pointing at queen's red wine. She knew queen's red wine was Morgana's favorite drink. But she didn't know Morgana want to change her taste. Gazing at queen's red wine, analyzing its ingredients, she thought.
'Queen's red wine is queen's favorite drink. It's made by the greatest and the best bartender James. Its ingredients are the Wine of James's Dream, the Wine of Vampire's Glory, one dash Angostura Bitters, one dash pheonix's blood, and one scarlet devil's fruit.'
It's well-known that queen's red wine was her favorite drink. She wasn't surprised that Victoria could remember her favorite drink. Queen's red wine was her favorite drink, but she didn't feel the same taste anymore.
"I have tasted one thousand types of cocktails. I'm tired of tasting queen's red wine. I'm gonna host Red Wine Brew Contest and select the new queen's red wine. Can you invite two more top bartenders to attend the contest?"
Morgana whispered, looking into Victoria's eyes. She didn't know vampire bartenders, but she knew Victoria must know the best bartenders. Looking upon different types of cocktails, looking upon James and Victoria, she thought.
'James who created queen's red wine, he is qualified to attend red wine brew contest. Victoria who has tasted three thousand types of cocktails, she is qualified to judge the red wine brew contest. I need to invite tow more top bartenders.'
Victoria heard that Morgana was gonna host Red Wine Brew Contest. She considered the contest as an opportunity to develop red wine brew industry. She understood that Morgana's favorite drink would rise a popular red wine brew in the Vampire Empire.
"Yes, your majesty! I have stasted three thousand types of cocktails. I know two top bartenders, Leo and Eleanor. Leo is famous for the Wine of Leo's Dream. He is working at Leo's Bar. Eleanor is famous for the Wine of Eleanor's Dream. She is working at Eleanor's Bar. They are the top bartenders in Vampire Empire."
Victoria replied, offering her recommendations. She knew two top bartenders, Leo and Eleanor. She recognized them, because she often invited them to make cocktails for her. Recalling the taste of Leo's cocktail, recalling the taste of Eleanor's cocktail, she thought.
'Leo is brilliant young gentleman. He created the Wine of Leo's Dream. Each type of his cocktails combines the Wine of Leo's Dream and different types of drinks. Eleanor is a brilliant young lady. She created the Wine of Eleanor's Dream. Each type of her cocktails combines the Wine of Eleanor's Dream and different types of drinks.'
Morgana didn't know Leo and Eleanor, but she trusted Victoria's recommendations. What she wanted was the new queen's red wine. She hosted a red wine brew contest for three top bartenders. She hoped they could bring a surprise to her.
"Hello, Mr. Leo!" Morgana continued, "Hello, Ms. Eleanor!"
Morgana opened two portals, one portal to Leo's Bar and another portal to Eleanor's Bar, summoning Leo and Eleanor. She pushed them into portals, and summoned them to Cocktail Bar. Looking upon Leo, Looking upon Eleanor, she thought.
'From the first sight I saw Mr. Leo, I saw a noble and gentle soul inside him. He must be an honorable gentleman. From the first sight I saw Ms. Eleanor, I saw a pure and kind soul inside her. She must be a pure and kind lady.'
Leo who was the bartender at Leo's Bar, he looked around and checked the surroundings. He hadn't ever met Morgana, but he met the Statue of the Goddess of Darkness and the president Victoria by Morgana's side.
"Good morning, your majesty! Good morning, ma'am! Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Leo, a bartender at Leo's Bar. It's been a great honor for me to meet queen and president Victoria. Shall I make you a glass of cocktail?"
Leo saluted, bowing to Morgana and Victoria with respect. He kept his noble manners and gentleman-like politeness. He saw James, and stepped by his side. Leaning against bar counter, waiting for queen's instruction, he thought.
'I'm just going to taste a new type of cocktail. I haven't tasted it yet, but I believe it will rise a popular red wine brew in Vampire Empire. Does queen know the new type of cocktail? Am I summoned here to make a glass of cocktail for queen?'
Eleanor who was the bartender at Eleanor's Bar, she looked around, and checked the surroundings. She hadn't ever met Morgana, but from the first sight she saw Morgana, she knew that Morgana must be the Goddess of Darkness.
"Good morning, your majesty! Good morning, ma'am! Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Eleanor, a bartender at Eleanor's Bar. It's been a great honor for me to meet queen and president Victoria. What can I do for you?"
Eleanor saluted, bowing to Morgana and Victoria. She was an adorable and polite young lady. She glanced at James and Leo, and came to them. Walking toward James and Leo, looking upon cocktails, she thought.
'James, Leo and I, we are considered as the best bartenders in Vampire Empire. We are summoned her by queen. Maybe queen wants us to make a glass of cocktail for her. Maybe queen wants us to create the new queen's red wine. I shall never let queen's expectations down.'

Morgana made a speech, looking upon James, Leo, Eleanor and Victoria. She announced Red Wine Brew Contest, and set Cocktail Bar as the contest location. Looking upon participants, looking upon bar counter, she thought.
"I announce Red Wine Brew Contest, because I want to change my taste. I set Cocktail Bar as the contest location, because Cocktail Bar has different kinds of ingredients for bartenders to make the most exquisite and the best red wine. I hope they could bring a surprise to me!"
