Chapter 27 Judging Red Wine

Thursday, December 28, 2034.

Vampire's Planet, Vampire Empire Capital, Cocktail Bar, 11:00 a.m.

Morgana enjoyed red wine, closing her eyes, tasting red wine with a great pleasure. She dreamed back the glorious age of Vampire Empire's history, and learned from the history. She opened her eyes, and gazed at wine glass with hues of blood.

"The average score would be your final score. Your final scores would be 9.75! Thank you for your red wine, treat, and engagement. I appreciate your pursuit of glory. I believe one day Vampire Empire will rise again. I believe one day vampires will find back vampire's glory. I believe one day you could make the better red wine!"

Morgana whispered, telling James that his final scores would be 9.75. She gently raised her wine glass, elegantly sipping a little bit of red wine, and carefully tasting red wine that James filled with his dream, vampire's glory and a great pleasure. Feeling his dream, feeling vampire's glory, she thought.

'Tasting red wine is not just tasting the taste, but also it's tasting the spirit of red wine. Each glass of red wine has a story. Those who know red wine, say red wine erases his worries. Those who don't know red wine, wonder what does red wine taste like?'

James was excited, after hearing Morgana and Victoria's comments. He kept his cool with gentleman-like manner. He stood at the table, carefully listening to Morgana and Victoria's comments, feeling a sense of being appreciated.

"Thank you, your majesty, for your uplifting comment, appreciation and blessing. I appreciate your comment, and it honors me truly. I appreciate your appreciation, and it gives me faith to keep making fine red wine. I appreciate your blessing, and it gives me courage. Thank you, your majesty!" James continued.

"Thank you, president, for your supportive comment, appreciation and support. I feel pleasant, because you give me a great comment. I feel being appreciated, because you give me a high score. I feel being supportive, because you guide us find back vampire's glory. Thank you, president!"

James said with gratitude and respect, expressing his acknowledgement. He bowed to Morgana and Victoria, and walked back bar counter. Looking upon different types of cocktails, calming down his excited heart, he thought.

'Queen's red wine is not just an address, but also it's a medal, the highest honor in wine-making. I can't deny that I want the honor. But what I want most is to find back vampire's glory. I wish one day queen could lead vampires find back vampire's glory.'

Leo gently combined the ingredients, and gently stirred the wine glass. He raised wine glass, as if he raised an art. He smelled the scent of red wine, as if he smelled the scent of rose. He gazed at wine glass, as if he gazed at loved one. It's with a great pleasure that he delivered two glasses of red wine to Morgana and Victoria.

"Your majesty! Madam Victoria! This type of red wine combines the spirits of the Wine of Leo's Dream, the Wine of Vampire's Glory and sweet vermouth. Please! Enjoy!"

Leo introduced with respect, laying two glasses of red wine at the table. He stepped aside, waiting for queen and president's comments. Bowing down his head, holding with excitement, he thought.

'I feel excited, because I'm glad that I'm chosen by queen. I feel excited, because it's been a great honor for me to make a glass of red wine for queen, and make a glass of red wine for president. I feel excited, because I'm expecting queen and president's comments.'

Red wine could get people drunk. But what Morgana wanted was to get drunk. But red wine would never get her drunk. It's with a great pleasure that she gently raised her wine glass, and elegantly tasted Leo's red wine.

"Thank you for making me a glass of enjoyable red wine. I appreciate your romantic soul and sensitive heart. This type of red wine combines the spirits of the Wine of Leo's Dream, the Wine of Vampire's Glory and sweet vermouth. The Wine of Leo's Dream is indeed a rosy dream, and it's sweet and romantic. Love is definitely desirable, but the obstacle of love is absolutely inevitable. A glass of the Wine of Leo's Dream can mend a broken heart. The Wine of Vampire's Glory reminds me of the glorious age of Vampire Empire's history. The combination of both wines, makes me feel the romantic days of the glorious age." Morgana continued.

"Sweet vermouth makes me feel passion, romance and love. Passion is strong enough to be feeling summer. Romance would be lovely. I can imagine the romance between lovers in the glorious age. What would be romantic in the glorious age is writing letter, visiting gallery, walking in the garden and so on. Love is definitely desirable, but the obstacle of love is absolutely inevitable. May love conquer every obstacle! May you conquer your obstacle of love! May you keep making fine red wine! Your score would be 9.75!"

Morgana smiled with delight, Judging Leo's red wine. She almost forgot what love was. It's Leo's red wine that reminded her of what love was. Tasting red wine with a great pleasure, feeling red wine's story by heart, she thought.

'Love is definitely desirable, but the obstacle of love is absolutely inevitable. Money is absolutely indispensable. Life will be hard without money, and love couldn't bloom on hard soil. Cowardness comes from worries. One worries too much, because he loves another one too much. Cowardness would be the obstacle of love. If one has twenty seconds of insane courage, he would make something magnificent.'

Victoria was a frequent guest at Leo's Bar. She had tasted many types of Leo's cocktails. They were made by the same bartender, but each type of cocktail was different. It's with a great pleasure that she gently raised her wine glass, and elegantly tasted Leo's red wine.

"Thank you for making me a glass of enjoyable red wine. I appreciate your red wine's story. A glass of red wine would be a romantic story. It perfectly combines the spirits of the Wine of Leo's Dream, the Wine of Vampire's Glory and sweet vermouth. It's not only a glass of red wine, but also it's a romantic story. It's romantic, beautiful and touching. The romantic part is haunting and desirable. The beautiful part is attractive and impressive. The touching part is touching and haunting. May the Goddess of Darkness bless us! May the Goddess of Darkness bless Vampire Empire! May you conquer your obstacle of love! Your score would be 9.87!"

Victoria smiled with delight, Judging Leo's red wine. She was tasting red wine, as if she was reading a romantic story. The romantic story was inside a glass of red wine. Tasting red wine by mouth, feeling red wine's story by heart, she thought.

'Leo is a gentleman with handsome appearance, romantic soul and sensitive heart. He devotes himself in wine-making, and attempts to research a kind of red wine that can erase worries and memories. He is a hot gentleman with story.'

Morgana didn't know Leo's story, but she could feel his red wine's story. She didn't know the story's endings, but she could feel the story wasn't a fairytale. She didn't know the story, but she could feel his sorrow.

"The average score would be your final score. Your final scores would be 9.81. Thank you for your red wine, treat and engagement. I appreciate your obsession for love. I believe one day you could conquer your obstacle of love. I believe one day you could find back your love. I believe one day you could make the better red wine!"

Morgana whispered, telling Leo that his final score would be 9.81. She gently raised her wine glass, and elegantly tasted a little bit of red wine. Tasting red wine, feeling red wine's story, she thought.

'A heart is as fragile as wine glass. A broken wine glass would hurt the others, but a broken heart would hurt itself. A glass of the Wine of Leo's Dream can mend a broken heart, but it can't mend a broken relationship. It hurts one's heart, each time he looks back the romantic days in the past.'

Leo felt like weeping, after hearing Morgana and Victoria's comments. But as a man, he kept his cool and tried not to lose his manner. He stood aside, carefully listening to Morgana and Victoria's comments, feeling a sense of being understood.

"Thank you, your majesty, for your empathetic comment, understanding and blessing. I appreciate your empathetic comment, and it guides me move on. I appreciate your understanding, and I'm touched and grateful. I appreciate your blessing, and I wish I could conquer my obstacle of love. Thank you, your majesty!" Leo continued.

"Thank you, president, for your empathetic comment, appreciation and understanding. I'm touched, because you said that a glass of red wine would be a romantic story. I'm touched, because you appreciate my red wine and story. I'm touched, because you can understand how I feel. Thank you, president!"

Leo said sincerely, expressing his acknowledgement. He bowed to Morgana and Victoria, and walked back bar counter. He got a high scores, but he felt like weeping. Feeling his view got blurred, feeling his emotions got released, he thought.

'Once upon a time, I encountered Nana in VEC University. It's with a great pleasure that we walked to class, discussed our study and talked about future together. I didn't realize what love was, but I realized how important she was in my life. She was as essential as oxygen.

By the time we were both young, we both had firing ambitions. I had a firing ambition of being a recognized bartender in Vampire Empire Capital. Nana had a firing ambition of being a recognized singer in Vampire Empire Capital. We came to a night bar together after graduation. I became a bartender, and shs became night bar's singer.

We thought future was promising, but one day life played a ridiculous drama on us. One day Nana left the night bar, and flew to a greater stage. I stayed in the night bar, and served every guest. I devoted myself in wine-making, and created the Wine of Leo's Dream. I bought the night bar, and named it Leo's Bar. I wish one day Nana could come back to me.'
