Chapter 211: Barley Beer, New in the Tavern (4k)
Early the next morning.
Naoki woke up and glanced at the calendar as usual, today is the thirteenth of August, and on the word 13, there is a red circle drawn with a red pen.
It was a mark made by Naoki more than a month ago when sake brewing.
It means that today is the day when beer is made.
Thinking of this, Naoki, who was still a little sleepy, instantly came to his senses.
He got up and left the bedroom, and took Babu Tupat and Choleton to the living room.
In the kitchen, my sister's housekeeper has already begun to prepare a fragrant breakfast for everyone.
The elder brother loves to clean up the places in the living room that have been messed up by Pokémon such as Frost Milk Fairy.
The motorcycle lizard lay in front of the fireplace, squinting lazily, as if it hadn't woken up yet.
Seeing this scene, Loton couldn't help but remind: "Ahh ”
How did it look so much like a lazy pig before?
Hearing the sound of the old Leton, the motorcycle lizard woke up instantly, and when it opened its eyes, it found that everyone was looking at it.
"Quack?"
The motorcycle lizard couldn't help but panic a little, and thought that he had done something wrong.
Naoki was speechless: "It's okay, it will take a while to eat, you can continue to sleep for a while." ”
The motorcycle lizard was relieved, but it was so frightened that it was no longer sleepy, so it simply shook its body and ran outside to breathe fresh air.
The pasture in the morning is always so relaxing.
The breeze carries a faint fragrance of flowers and grass, and the leaves of the crops in the fields are full of crystal droplets.
Ice Eevee walking, Olignew photosynthesizing, three bees working hard, and Pokémon of wild birds perched on the rooftop, all of these give people a relaxed and lively feeling.
The motorcycle lizard liked it very much, and then joined in and began to run energetically on the green grass.
in the living room.
Frost Milk Fairy stood on the cupboard and watched her sister prepare breakfast.
Babu Tupa jumped onto the couch, her furry body lazily wrapped in the soft couch.
Sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and a few thin floating hairs float in the air with the movement of the baboo, which is particularly clear under the illumination of the beam.
Naoki: "......"
It seems that it is necessary to feed some chicken soup to the hairy Pokémon in the ranch.
He remembered that chicken soup had an anti-fluffing effect and could also make Pokémon shiny and slippery.
Not only Naoki, but also his brother's love attendant noticed this scene.
It walked over with a tool and cleaned up the floating hairs that had fallen to the wooden floor.
Naoki was satisfied, and once again sighed that he was worthy of being a famous butler Pokémon!
Before breakfast was ready, Naoki opened the door to the cellar.
The cellar was dark, and there was a faint fragrance in the air.
Naoki sniffed carefully, and could smell a hint of the unique aroma of hops and malt fermentation.
"And sure enough, it was done!"
In anticipation, Naoki descended the stairs to the cellar to the nearest oak barrel, unscrewed the valve, and the golden liquor trickled out.
This is followed by a full-bodied aroma of barley beer.
Naoki shouted to the old Leton who was guarding the mouth of the cellar, "Bring a cup!" ”
"Ahh
So Lerton answered, and quickly turned around and took a glass from the living room.
Naoki reached out and took a glass of beer with it, and then looked down, and the message of the beer came to his mind.
[Barley Beer (B): Beer fermented with malt and hops is an indispensable part of the tavern.
Cooking Effect: Drunk, after drinking, will cause Pokémon to enter a slightly drunken state, which can bring Pokémon a short period of tranquility, so that they can relax their whole body, and the recovery speed of injuries in this state will be accelerated.
If a fighting Pokémon is drunk before the battle, it may have some unexpected effects.
Comments: Basic barley beer, easy to make, good choice for a home trip. ]
"Drunk?" Naoki didn't expect such a rustic effect, but when you think about it, it's normal.
It brings peace to the minds of Pokémon and relaxes them completely......
Perhaps those extremely tired Pokémon will want to have such a drink.
However, what makes Naoki find interesting is that beer seems to have a special effect on fighting Pokémon?
Drinking before a fight will allow them to hit a set of drunken punches in the middle of a fight?
It just so happens that he also has a fighting Pokémon in his ranch!
Naoki looked up at Gu Leton above.
But after a short period of contemplation, he gave up on the idea of trying it on the old Leton.
Because he was afraid, Loton got drunk and began to tear down the house.
It's fine if it's an ordinary Pokémon, but Loton is a legendary Pokémon.
If it starts to get drunk, no one in the ranch can stop it.
When the beer was brewed, Naoki was happy, and immediately went up to tell the news to the brother and sister who helped run the tavern.
"The effect of this beer can help Pokémon relieve fatigue and relax, and if it is an injured Pokémon to drink, the injuries on the body will heal faster."
"That way, you can add one more drink to the tavern's menu in the future!"
"Love?"
Hearing this magical effect, the little face of the younger sister showed a look of surprise.
Naoki smiled and nodded, and after breakfast, he asked the two waiters to telepathically carry an oak barrel full of beer behind the bar in the tavern.
In this way, if there is a Pokémon that you want to try, you just need to unscrew the valve and connect to a cup.
During this time, the Pokémon Tavern was run by two caretakers.
Not only will they act as bartenders to entertain guests, but they will also prepare food for hungry guests.
In addition to the milk and tree juice prepared by Naoki, they also specially prepared easy-to-make sandwiches, cream-coated tree fruit snacks, and creamy popcorn made from corn for guests to choose from.
Thanks to their efforts and word of mouth from the town's Pokémon, this dilapidated old house has been transformed into a place for Pokémon hangouts.
It's a bit of a departure from his original purpose in creating this tavern, but it doesn't seem like a bad thing.
Naoki didn't bother the Pokémon on weekdays, only when some Pokémon he had never seen before, or were interested in, he would run over to watch and eavesdrop on their chat.
Today, in order to observe the effect of the beer, Naoki came here when the tavern was open.
He ate nearly a dozen pieces of translated melon seed cake, and stood behind the bar with his sister to entertain guests.
The elder brother waits on the sidelines and acts as a bartender, ready to serve meals to guests depending on the situation, or clean the floors and tabletops soiled by guests.
At 6:30 p.m., the tavern officially opened.
After a while, the tavern's loyal guests, the two monsters of the Clee family, rushed over.
They had planned to order a glass of juice and milk as usual, but suddenly realized that there was an extra drink in the tavern today.
Strange Li couldn't help but ask, "Ni cough?" (What's that?) New tree juice? )
My sister smiled and shook her head: "Love! (No, it's a beer that relieves fatigue!) )
"Neahem?!" Strange force can't be believed, there is such a thing?
My sister loves to wait: "Love? (Would you like a drink?) )
The two monsters glanced at each other, and finally did not resist the curiosity in their hearts, and ordered two glasses with the money that Klee had specially given them.
Seeing this, Naoki amusedly took two large glasses of beer from his beer glass and sent them over.
The two monsters sat at the dining table, looking down at the golden liquid in the glass, and felt that it smelled a little strange.
They hesitated, but eventually lowered their heads and took a sip.
With the beer in his stomach, the two strange cheeks immediately turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They managed to get into a slightly drunken state.
The first time I experienced the strange power of being slightly drunk, I only felt as if I was stepping on a cloud, and the whole person was light and fluttering, and I no longer felt a trace of trouble and fatigue.
Although this drink tastes a little strange, it tastes surprisingly good!
The two monsters raised their glasses and drank the beer, then sat down in their chairs and burped, shaking their heads to look at the faces of the brothers opposite.
No one spoke, just quietly feeling the strange atmosphere.
Naoki: "......"
I don't know if the effect of the beer is too domineering, or if the two strange forces are very poor.
So when the carnival wave dancing duck arrived, he saw sitting on a chair and swaying his body, and the expression on his face seemed to be in the charm of Sister Mi Li.
This stunned the Carnival Wave Dancing Duck for a moment, and it asked strangely, "Gah?" (What happened?) )
A gentle smile appeared on the face of the younger sister's love attendant: "Love." (They drank beer.) )
Beer...... No wonder!
The Carnival Wave Dancing Duck had heard of this drink, it was for humans to drink, it tasted a little strange, and it didn't like it.
Therefore, he rejected his sister's recommendation to serve as a housekeeper, ordered a glass of tree juice as usual, and sat there and drank it slowly.
With the passage of time, many Pokémon guests have arrived here one after another.
Most of them are Pokémon from the town, and some are wandering Pokémon who have heard the news and come to eat and drink.
There is a pair of rats, electric petrels, and Pikachu......
The empty seats in the tavern are filled one after another, and those Pokémon are chatting all day, and the atmosphere here seems to be very lively.
The brothers and sisters looked at this scene happily.
Naoki felt very sorry in his heart.
Because these Pokémon felt that the smell of beer was strange, he couldn't sell a single beer after the strange power.
And just then, the door of the tavern was pushed open.
A meow with a sad face and a gold coin on its head walked in through the door.
Naoki recognized it.
Listening to the carnival wave dancing duck, this is a wandering meow in the town of Yanqin, making a living by opening treasure chests in the town.
It is said that a trainer once tried to take it in, but was rejected by this meowth because it said that it liked to open treasure chests every day.
Opening treasure chests means turning over trash cans.
Naoki has seen this meow a few times before, and it has always been more cheerful and lively.
Why did you show such an expression today?
Meow Meow walked to the bar with a sad face, ready to order a glass of juice and milk like before.
It felt that only sweet milk could soothe its wounded heart.
But suddenly, the gentle voice of the younger sister's caretaker sounded in front of it: "Love? (There's a new product in the tavern today!) Is it a magic beer that can help you relax your body and soothe your soul? )
Hearing this, Meow Meow was stunned for a moment.
It then occurred to it that its wounded heart did indeed need to be soothed.
So Meow Meow nodded, and was not in the mood to chat with the caretaker, just said, "Meow." (Have a meow, then.) )
It put a 300 coin on the bar, this is the treasure that Meow Meow found with Jubao Gong, round, and it likes it very much.
Seeing that another guest had finally ordered a beer, my sister was very happy and immediately poured a large glass for it and handed it to my brother to the table.
Meowth sat down in an empty seat, sighed heavily, and then picked up her glass and took a sip of beer.
Hearing its sigh, the fire brigade's carnival wave dancing duck turned his head and looked: "Gah? (What's wrong with today?) )
Seeing someone asking, Meow Meow immediately complained sadly: "Meow ......" (I'm so stupid, really, I just knew that the elegant cat of the rich and noble family wouldn't like me, but I still couldn't help but confess to it...... )
Carnival Wave Dancing Duck: "......"
Meow's eyes suddenly lit up: "Meow! (What a beautiful and elegant cat that is!) It's so beautiful, so noble, so elegant! The first time I saw it, I knew that my love had arrived! )
Then, Meowmeow's expression became trance-like and frustrated: "Meow ......" (but it rejected my confession, and I lost my love Meow again...... )
As she spoke, Meow took another big sip of beer.
Its expression was in a trance, its face was flushed, and it successfully entered a slightly drunken state.
Hearing Meow's words, Naoki was taken aback.
Good guy, this is still a love saint meow!
The drunken Meowth seems to have forgotten that she has just fallen out of love.
It only felt light and fluttering, as if it had reached the clouds, wrapped in soft white clouds, as if time had stood still.
"Meow!" (It's so comfortable!) )
Seeing this scene, the other Pokémon were taken aback, what happened to this meow?
Obviously, he was still sad and sad because of the loss of love a second ago, but now he has this expression.
Naoki couldn't help but explain: "This is the effect of beer, it can help Pokémon forget about sadness for a while, relax and relieve fatigue, after drinking, just go home and sleep well, and when you wake up tomorrow, everything will be fine." ”
Hearing this, all the Pokémon were surprised.
Beer still has this effect?
A few Pokémon that weren't going to drink showed eager expressions on their faces.
Seeing this, Naoki raised his eyebrows: "Is it possible that you are also out of love?" ”
"Pikachu!"
"Squeak!"
“……”
A group of Pokémon hurriedly shook their heads, they didn't have any!
There were also many Pokémon covering their mouths and snickering, and for a while, the tavern was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Naoki chatted with them like this, but at that moment, the door to the tavern was pushed open again.
At this time, the night was dark, and Naoki thought that Miss Junsha, who was patrolling the mountains with a cutty dog, came over, but he never thought that as soon as he looked up, he saw a large group of unexpected figures.
Jenny Turtle, Frog Flower, Pikachu, Meow Meow......
The Pokémon that pushes open the door is a Gotha duck that evolved from the Dardar Duck.
Seeing so many Pokémon, Naoki had a stunned look on his face.
The group of Pokémon also saw him, but in the next second, they all got out of the way.
Behind them, a creature with a humanoid body and feline Pokémon features was standing in the dark, calmly looking over with a pair of emotionless eyes.
