Chapter 53: Preparing Gifts
Perhaps it is because of the thrill of enslaving dragons, or the yearning for a powerful profession, almost every traverser has a dream of becoming a dragon knight deep in their hearts. If it weren't for the impossible, every traverser would try to get closer to that goal.
In order to become a great dragon knight, Drew decided to give it another shot this year. He plans to spend the months leading up to Deca's wedding going on a frenzy of brewing fruit wine and making some shiny ornaments. After all, there are only a few preferences of the dragon family, and if you can't color you and can't subdue a giant like the dragon family, Drew can only use wine and shiny jewelry to seduce the dragon family according to some inherited allusions.
After the processing request was completed, the season also entered the autumn season. With a clear goal, Drew was full of energy, hiding from his parents at home, and in just one month, he frantically scavenged with two unscrupulous moonblade leopards and scavenged a large amount of fruit. Drew's high labor costs made Two-Blade Leopard willingly instructed by Drew, and this year Drew promised Moonblade Leopard's family one-third of the total amount of fruit wine. Tempted by the abundance of fruit wine, even if Drew went home and went to bed at night, the two Moonblade Leopards, who had already watched Drew's winemaking process several times, would peel and corch the collected fruits with their paws and put them into wooden barrels, waiting for Drew to come over the next day for further processing.
Drew had to keep enough wine for the temptation to drink like a bottomless pit of dragons, or else it would be impossible for these haughty guys to put their heads down and make a pact with Drew. Even if he tempted them with wine, Drew felt that he had to add some magic trinkets to satisfy their greed and sign an equal contract with him.
Moreover, Drew has not forgotten Hank, who is his partner. For some unknown reason, the Golden Saint Seiya among the merchants knew the location of Drew's wine and the amount of fruit wine and beer that Dru had worked so hard to save. In recent years, he has often turned into a scoundrel trying to get what Drew looks like a sufficient amount of new liquor every year, and he has also hit Drew in his inventory, trying to get even more barrels in a constant way. This year, in order to make up for the shortfall, Drew had no choice but to fill the gap with quantity, that is, to make wine like crazy.
Fortunately, there is a space ring from Deca, which can hold about 20 barrels of fruit wine. Otherwise, Drew simply wouldn't have enough wine to seduce the big guys with good wine. Without this ring, Drew would have had to choose to frantically make shiny magic trinkets to lure, after all, even if Drew prepared the wine, shipping it to Dragon Island would be a big problem. Drew didn't want to carry a 20-barrel backpack of five travel backpacks to a dragon wedding. And just using magic accessories to lure, Drew still feels that it is a bit insufficient.
In order to brew enough alcohol, Drew even threw the harvest of the small field he had just taken over for two years to his father, leaving the unknown Kova looking at Drew with disappointment. It's a pity that Drew, who didn't even pay attention to the quality in order to ensure the quantity of the sake brewed, didn't pay attention to his father's eyes at all.
Over the course of the next month, not counting the number of brewing failures, Drew brewed a total of 53 barrels of fruit wine and 10 barrels of beer. The raw materials for beer were still too few to find in the Elven Forest, so even if Drew tried his best to brew it, he only got this amount of it.
And because of Drew's rush this time, the number of green and blue quality in today's wine is only about the same as in the past. On such a large basis, the number of high-quality wines has not been able to exceed that of previous years, and most of the wines show a white quality under the observation of the Drew system.
And this amount seems to be a lot, but the Moonblade Leopard family took the labor fee, and then Hank, who came as scheduled and didn't know how to know how much Drew brewed this year, cried and forced to buy a considerable part of the alcohol left in Drew's hands The total amount of alcohol left in Drew's hands is only 17 barrels, and even the amount in Drew's plan is not enough. And there are 6 barrels of white quality among them. In desperation, Drew had no choice but to use his inventory again, filling the storage ring with 3 barrels of green quality beer, 1 barrel of blue quality beer, 14 barrels of green quality 100 fruit wine, and 2 barrels of blue quality 100 fruit wine.
As for the white quality Baiguo wine, of course Drew, who has hollowed out his mind in order to seduce the dragons, will not take it away. To get the effect of the dragons, of course, you have to use good things to lure, and Drew gritted his teeth for the sake of his dream. Moreover, many white wines, especially fruit wines, are very easy to improve after a period of time, and the budget-conscious Drew will not cause his plan to seduce powerful partners to fail for unnecessary savings. If it weren't for the purple quality of the hundred fruit wine that had just been hacked by Her Excellency the goddess 3 years ago, and the fact that Drew had no purple hundred fruit wine in the past few years, Drew would even use the purple quality of the hundred fruit wine to tempt the dragon family.
After preparing what he thought was a sufficient amount of alcohol, Drew turned his attention to magic trinkets.
After sending Hank away, Drew had the most magic materials in his hands in recent years, not only in exchange for Hank, but also part of the processing fee paid by Deca and the magic materials that Hawke provided to Drew. This also made Drew, who had been carefully using magic materials, feel like a local tyrant for a moment.
The first thing Drew set out to create was a gift. At that time, Drew will definitely be an important guest on the elves' side, and if the gift he takes out is too shabby, it will make the dragons at Deka's wedding underestimate Drew, which is not conducive to Drew's plan to tempt the toll thugs. Although both Lady Falling Rain and Hawke have said that they will prepare a gift for Deka's wedding for Drew, Drew, who has already hit the dragon knight with the ghost idea, will certainly not sit idly by, and has long been confident in the choice of gifts.
Drew had asked Dekar for a larger fire cloud crystal and had taken an arm-sized white crystal from Hawke's treasure. These two materials are not rare, but their light is very dazzling. Drew knew that as long as these two materials were carefully polished and processed by himself, they would definitely attract the attention of dragons more than those high-level magic equipment.
Of course, this kind of living drew, which saves money and can get the great favor of the dragons, will not mind doing it.
Three days later, Drew carefully packed his processed gift in a wooden box and some dead leaves that he had looted from Hank, and threw it into a corner of the storage ring.
After that, Drew stayed at home and began to make a lot of magic trinkets. Because these magic ornaments are to be made according to the preferences of the dragons, there is no need to consider their attribute bonuses or anything, just consider their appearance and brilliance. These were not difficult for Drew, who had already suppressed his artistic impulse for the bloodline, and a large number of magical trinkets that exuded dazzling brilliance but were quite bad began to appear under Drew's hands at an astonishing speed.
Fortunately, Drew, who had paid a heavy price, firmly remembered the cost of not locking the door, and would repeatedly confirm whether the door was locked every time he worked, otherwise he would definitely be robbed of a large piece of jewelry by his own Miss Ress. Even though she hadn't robbed her of the trinkets for the past few days, Drew still went to great lengths to provide his three sisters with delicious drinks.
No way, who told Drew at that time to be careless and just leave the juice in his sister's room? The two younger sisters who came back from Aiya together saw this drink, and what was worse was that the little sister who was looking for her sisters to spoil her sister also drank this drink because of greed! There is no need for Drew to explain how lethal sweet drinks are for girls, and the identity of girls + children has unrivaled combat ability for sweet drinks!
So recently, the sad Drew has to often prepare some drinks for his sisters without telling his parents, otherwise he can't sit in the room with peace of mind to process accessories, and the sisters who have become Sailor Moon are more than happy to ask for what they deserve (sure they deserve it?) Delicious drinks.
Fortunately, the three younger sisters are still children, and the demand for sweet drinks is very limited. If they were all as "arrogant" as Drew's second sister, Drew might have to go to the forest to plague the fruits again in order to fulfill their request.
