It adds a bit of coolness and depth to the complex flavor of the usual ale, and it turns out that the barrel that Theodor handed to Troy in Yasqui's bar is the "mint ale" made by this little-known tavern. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Theodor...... I didn't expect to hear another familiar name from your mouth besides Keno. ”

While the boy was soothing and removing the ale in the cup in one go, it was somewhat inconsistent with the previous maverick speech and the misleading appearance, Wissa's toast-raising action was quite elegant, and the posture and etiquette could be called impeccable.

"You know a lot of people. Whatever your reason or degree of 'knowing', being able to know these two people is enough to increase my interest in you. ”

The wrist shook the wine glass slightly, and the man's tone ...... Well, nothing has changed.

"You know a lot of people, and they must be 'funny' people. He gave the other party a further evaluation, however, the young man with a twinkle in his eyes had something more curious to ask at this moment, "But, how did you drink just now?"

The wine in Vesa's glass was about a third less, but the white cloth called the "mask" was still on his face.

Troy craned his neck as he drank bitterly, but he couldn't see what the other party was doing, and by the time he came back to his senses, he had already taken a big sip of the wine.

"How do you drink? Well, I almost forgot. After the boy's "reminder", Wisa realized his "negligence", it was difficult to think of a remedy, and there was no need to remedy, and the tall man gave full play to his usual style of acting, and changed the topic quite strongly.

"Mint is added to the wine, but that's not the only reason it tastes the way it does. Can you guess the other reason?"

"Ice is the elemental magic of ice. ”

Surprisingly, he didn't get to the bottom of the question, and the answer was more decisive than Wiesa had imagined, Troy licked his lips and reflected on the taste and the feeling when he held the wine glass, staring at the other with his eyes still shining.

"Boss, two more glasses of special ale. ”

Almost instantaneously comprehending the meaning of this look, the corners of Wissa's mouth twitched slightly under the mask, and after two more glasses of ale, he continued.

"That's right. ”

This was his affirmation of the boy's answer.

"You're really not an ordinary person. ”

This was his assessment of the teenager's correct answer to the question.

"The cooling effect attached to the ice elemental magic will give the ale a more refreshing taste. It sounds simple, but not everyone can answer it. The application of magic to this kind of realm is something that most mages cannot imagine. ”

"Hum—"

On one side he made further explanations, on the other side, Wiesa's hands moved so quickly that Troy could only realize that he had made a move, but could not say exactly what it was.

"There's less wine, how the hell did you do that?"

The humming sound still echoed in his ears, and the fact that the wine in the other party's glass had once again disappeared "out of thin air" made Troy fall into confusion and curiosity again.

"I don't mean to hide it from you, but it's just a technical problem that I don't want to solve and can't solve. To be honest, I'm struggling right now, thinking that you should be able to see it, and on the other hand, I hope you can't notice it because of my trust in someone. ”

"I'm not as strong as you think. ”

Although he wanted to say this first, Troy, who felt a little headache, finally only said one sentence:

"You're talking about something I don't understand again. ”

......

......

......

The second glass of ale was also eaten in an instant, and the refreshing irritation left in the tip of his tongue and throat made Troy's whole body start to heat up, and the young man, whose face had already diffused the smell of wine, seemed not satisfied, and cast his longing, almost irresistible and direct eyes on Wissa, who was still drinking the first glass.

"Hah

Eventually, Troy got his wish and drank a third cup of special mint ale, and the two that Willa asked for the second time seemed to have been intended for him.

Tall but not bulky, muscular but not over-the-top like Ralph, the man who was still of normal size knew he was "addicted" by the first drink of the teenager.

I guess it's a side effect of peppermint.

Thinking about something like this, Wissa's unusually sharp sixth sense suddenly noticed something "strange": although it was still some distance from the tavern at the moment, there were indeed three unusual, hostile magical forces rapidly approaching here.

"Sorry to excuse me. ”

Just as Troy slowed down and was about to slowly taste the third glass of ale that he had "earned", and at the same time that Vesa sensed that the strange magic was heading here, his tone was slightly drunk, but the female voice that was still full of vitality suddenly came, startling the boy, but it did not make Willa, who had already noticed this, make any moves.

The person who spoke was Delia, and her conversation was apparently addressed to Willa, who looked inconspicuous from the back, rather than Troy, who had "powerful" magical powers.

For Delia, who is only one step away from entering the "School Park Ranking Battle",The magic power of the teenager can only be said to be "not bad",There is still a considerable gap from the level of surprise and even fear that makes her。

"It's presumptuous, but have we seen it somewhere, and we always feel like this back...... Delusional? Something familiar. ”

Tentatively speaking his question, although he is a B-level, the orthodox elemental mage who has the strength to defeat many A-level students rubbed his eyes, which had become a little blurred due to excessive alcohol intake, and when he looked at it again, he suddenly found that the back that he saw when he turned back by chance just now, and the back that inexplicably made him feel familiar had turned into a different appearance.

Even the feeling has completely changed.

"Wrong, yes, after all, that's only magic...... Or is it strange that I drank too much......?

Because I don't know if it was a "sudden change", or if she had really looked away just now, Delia seemed a little incoherent, in contrast, Wissa, who was calm and relaxed, and did not even turn around, made Troy on the other side have a trace of doubt and expectation about his identity.

He couldn't remember where he had heard the name for a while.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the wooden door, which had become dilapidated with the passage of time, was greeted with a "not very friendly" greeting, and while making a muffled noise, the door panel was "attacked" by a powerful force and broken into several pieces, and the people inside the bar were overwhelming.
