Chapter 501: A New Guest at the Tavern
After the award ceremony, Lucia and the others on Mount Osore never left the castle of Mount Fear, and lived a leisurely and happy life on the mountain for only a week. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Originally, Lucia was a person who had no relationship with sound living habits, and this kind of life had no effect on her at all.
And everyone else except Lucia...... Einstein and Hekat aside, the rest are either doctors who have lived in seclusion for two years, or dolls who have lived in the forest for more than a long time, and only Lulu looks normal. But even Lulu, as a member of the young girls group, the habit of focusing on Lucia and keeping up with Lucia is strange enough.
This kind of situation where the whole family is squatting at home is basically impossible to achieve on Earth, but in this other world, with Einstein's financial resources and newly acquired knighthood, this matter is much easier to achieve.
And just when these families were squatting and living in isolation, the royal capital next to the Osmoto Mountain was lively.
Although the details of the award ceremony have not been reported to the public, the new duke has become a hot topic recently, especially after the award ceremony, he has not even appeared in public once, which makes the new duke even more mysterious.
Because the new duke renamed his fiefdom, Blade Mountain, as Mount Fear, the people of the royal capital called this duke, who had never appeared in public, the Duke of Osore. This name is not only a simple reference to the fiefdom, but also contains people's fear of the duke, which is also inevitable, after all, the previous change of the fear of the mountain has scared these civilians who have not much knowledge enough.
The scars brought by the demon king and the civil strife to the royal capital are recovering smoothly, especially in the near future, there are always happy events, and soon the royal capital will return to its former appearance, at least it seems.
The sun is sinking in the west, and the bustling streets are slowly lit up one after another, although they are not as bright and gorgeous as the earth with electric lights, but they also have a unique flavor.
Thus began the nightlife of the royal capital.
Nightlife on the planet is always varied, and it's all the more because it's so varied enough to be a pastime.
With the lack of hardware, of course, the other world can't be as rich as the earth, but this is not to say that the nightlife of the other world is worse than the earth, on the contrary, because of the monotony of the kind, so the places that provide special services in the other world are even more luxurious, and even the earth can't compare with these places in this regard.
But these places are certainly not something that ordinary people can consume and enjoy, so most people's pastimes are concentrated in taverns. And among this kind of taverns, a tavern called Golden Lion can be said to be the hottest tavern in the entire royal capital, and there is no one.
Unlike other peers who are on par with various luxury places, Golden Lion not only has not worked decoration, but the things used in the store are all old goods, which can be said to be as handsome as the name of the store. It's hard to say why such a tavern is one of the best in the royal capital, and perhaps even the owner of the tavern himself doesn't know.
The cheapest wine, the liveliest atmosphere, the roughest style, this is the tavern Golden Lion.
That night, the Golden Lion welcomed two different guests, the reason why they are different is not only because the two are new guests, but also because the image of the two is completely out of place with the surroundings.
They were two teenagers of the same height, both of whom had relatively rare pure black hair, and their delicate faces looked very young, and they wore dresses with gold and black on a white background, which at first glance would make people think that they were going to a nobleman's banquet.
This conspicuous dress obviously shouldn't appear in a tavern like the Golden Lion, so the two teenagers attracted the attention of the surroundings from the moment they appeared, but also because of the dress, the people around them only stayed within the scope of attention, and no one approached the two teenagers further.
The two teenagers walked around the drunken bystanders and sat down at the tavern bar, where the middle-aged proprietor, who was wiping his glasses, glanced at them and asked as usual.
"What do you want?"
Perhaps it was because the two teenagers didn't look like they were the same age as they used to enter the tavern, the tavern keeper kindly added.
"I don't offer juice or milk here, but I do have a not-so-strong fruit wine, how about a little more?"
One of the teenagers shook his head and replied.
"Serve us the most expensive wine. ”
This answer made the boss slightly stunned, this is not a request that should appear in his small shop. However, the boss did not lose his mind because of this little thing, he put down the wine glass in his hand, turned around and took a bottle of beautifully decorated red wine from the wine rack behind him, and put it in front of the two teenagers, because he didn't think that the two teenagers really knew how to drink, and he even forgot to take the wine glasses for the two teenagers.
"This is the most expensive wine in my little shop. ”
After a pause, the boss added.
"Whatever you want to know, I will tell you anything I can tell you without reservation, even if it is a gift for you to buy wine. ”
Because of the mixed flow of people in the tavern, the tavern has become a place for all kinds of gossip to circulate, and the golden lion usually encounters some such 'guests'.
However, what kind of people have what kind of circles, so these 'guests' are generally gangsters or some special professionals who wander in the gray area. It's not that taverns don't receive 'guests' from high society, it's that the taverns themselves can't have access to that level of information, after all, you can't expect a group of commoners to know the secrets of those nobles, right?
It is precisely because of this that the two gorgeously dressed teenagers seem to the boss to be more like they are in the wrong place.
Hearing the boss's words, the young man who spoke before nodded, and was not polite to the boss, took the boss's freshly wiped wine glass from the bar counter, and filled himself with a whole glass of wine.
Just as the boss twitched into his eyes, the boy poured a whole glass of wine into his mouth before asking the question he wanted to ask.
"I wonder if there are any tragic things happening in the city that people are concerned about, such as people who have died in power or who have been treated unfairly. ”
The teenager's question can be described as rather strange and very untimely, like snooping on someone's privacy on the grounds of irresponsible curiosity.
The boss frowned.
"You're not a resident of this city, are you? Maybe you don't know, this city was a while ago—"
"The Demon King's scourge, right?" (To be continued.) )
