Tavern in Another Dimension:Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start-Chapter 59 - The Demon Kings Vanguard
Chapter 59: The Demon King’s Vanguard
Wayne only noticed the black cat in the corner when he heard the conversation between the two.
When he looked closely, he found that the cat was a little strange. The magic power in her body contained traces of dark magic.
Although she wasn’t like Abraham, whose magic power was filled with a thick aura of the Abyss, he could still feel traces of the Abyss in the black cat’s body.
What Wayne did not know was that after Ai Xiaohei secretly drank an entire barrel of high-level magic Lafite, her magic power was cleansed.
The Abyssal aura in her body dissipated little by little while she was drinking. Now, the magic power in Ai Xiaohei was similar to the magic power that ordinary magical beasts on the Hailar continent cultivated. If she remained in the human world, Ai Xiaohei’s abyssal aura would completely disappear. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
“Pfft…”
After hearing the name that Alan gave her, Abraham laughed out loud.
He was very familiar with the Demon King’s favorite magical pet. When she was in the Abyss, she had always been quite arrogant and domineering.
However, now that she came to the human world and landed in this mysterious tavern, not only was she no longer arrogant, she even lost her magnificent name and received a new pet-like name… Abraham couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Abraham, damn it, stop laughing!”
“Just you wait. The day this meow conquers this unreasonable human is the day you fail your vanguard mission. When that day comes, let’s see how you’ll answer to the Demon King!”
Alan and Wayne only heard Ai Xiaohei meowing, but Abraham heard her exasperatingly cursing at him in his heart.
“Alright, alright, Ai Xiaohei, you’re still on the clock. Be polite to the guests or else I’ll dock your pay.”
Alan reached out to hug Ai Xiaohei, who dashed in front of Abraham fuming with anger, and comforted her softly.
“Besides, you’re a girl. Don’t be so rude. Have you forgotten what Orina told you this afternoon?”
Ai Xiaohei couldn’t escape his controlling grip. She was furious. If it weren’t for the fact that she couldn’t use any of her magic power for some reason, she would give this mysterious young man a hard slap…
Alan stopped the flustered Ai Xiaohei and scratched her chin a few times.
Perhaps it was because the scratching was too comfortable, Ai Xiaohei gradually calmed down and started purring. Her eyes that were round from anger also narrowed. It looked like she was enjoying it.
Wayne was puzzled. He could not understand these two visitors from the Abyss.
“Little Alan, do you know the background of the cat in your hand?”
“I do. Orina told me when she came by this afternoon. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Besides, Ai Xiaohei won’t hurt me.”
Alan repeated what Orina told him this afternoon. Alan did not show any impatience toward the people who cared about him.
Speaking of the Abyss, Alan glanced at Abraham who was busy glaring at Ai Xiaohei, and did not notice the way Alan looked at him.
Wayne saw the look in Alan’s eyes and understood.
Although Alan did not have any magic power, in terms of intelligence, no one in Rock City could compare to him. The look in his eyes just now showed that he already knew Abraham’s identity, so he didn’t have to worry about Ai Xiaohei. He knew what he was doing, otherwise, Orina would have dealt with the black cat already.
Since the black cat was still alive and well by Alan’s side, it proved that Orina felt that she was harmless to Alan.
Wayne was relieved to know that Alan was on guard against the Abyss.
Thinking about it, even if these fools from the Abyss wanted to play tricks, they wouldn’t be able to fool Alan.
Thus, Wayne just sat at the side and watched the two peacefully
As night fell, the streets were filled with people rushing home or rushing towards the small tavern.
The guests were constantly calling Alan to refill their drinks, so he was constantly busy.
Wayne drank his wine and looked at the battle between Abraham and Ai Xiaohei. The more he looked the more interested he became in their interaction. He even looked forward to being able to go to the Abyss to take a look. The demons of the Abyss seemed to be an interesting race.
After Abraham and Ai Xiaohei ran into each other, they began exchanging information.
“I’ve only been here for one day and I already discovered what’s going on in the tavern’s wine cellar. What about you, Evil Lord? Did you find any useful information?” free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om
“Hmph, of course, but why should I tell you? Are you planning to have a new master now?”
“Nonsense! I’ve been the Demon King’s most loyal and number one companion all my life. I’m just pretending to submit to that human’s power and lurk by his side to seize the tavern as the demon’s stronghold in the human world as soon as possible!”
“You? Without any attacking powers, what else can you do besides changing your body shape at will? And let me tell you, that young man is very mysterious. You’d better be careful not to expose yourself. If that happens, you’ll implicate me as well.”
Abraham and Ai Xiaohei argued with each other in their hearts. Neither of them was convinced by the other. In the end, they barely reached a consensus.
Before they successfully seize the tavern, they would temporarily hide information that they have on the human world from the Demon King.
As for how they would seize the tavern, they would follow their own plans. No one would disturb the other.
Abraham’s current plan was to start with Wayne. He knew that Wayne was someone that Alan cared about very much.
And Alan cared a lot about the people that he was close with.
Abraham’s plan was somewhat successful. Recently, he had been living in the blacksmith shop and was even learning forging techniques from Wayne.
Even though he was the Evil Lord, he had to admire that rugged-looking man. Even in the demon world, his forging techniques were definitely top-notch.
As for Ai Xiaohei, she originally came to the human world to collaborate with the Evil Lord. But since they couldn’t reach an agreement, then never mind.
She was confident that even if she was alone, she would be able to complete the Demon King’s mission.
Of course, she had to complete the mission before that super powerful female elf returned. That woman was too strong and too troublesome.
The demon and the cat each had their ulterior motives but had the same goal. Alan, who was the target, did not realize this at this time. He even felt that he had full control of the situation.
The day before, Wayne and Abraham drank too much whiskey so Alan did not let them drink any more high-alcohol alcohol drinks tonight. He only let mister Wayne drink magic Lafite to heal his injuries.
The moon was high in the sky.
The customers in the tavern gradually left.
Wayne dragged Abraham out. They were the last to leave.
Back at the blacksmith shop, Wayne fell asleep as soon as he laid down on his bed. On the other hand, Abraham took out his diary.
Hailar calendar: Day five after invading the human world.
The Demon King sent his most useless companion to assist me in completing the mission. I can’t guess what the Demon King is thinking.
But the name Ai Xiaohei is perfect for that useless stupid cat!
I don’t care to collaborate with pets. For the Demon King’s mission, I already have a perfect plan. As long as the stupid cat doesn’t get in the way, I believe I will complete my mission soon.
When the time comes, the Demon King will praise me.
Today’s intelligence gathering was drinking.
Checking his diary entry, smiling at what he wrote, closing the diary, and placing the diary back in his coat, Abraham finally lay down to rest.
After the publicity from the Harvest Festival, the tavern’s business was booming. Although all of this was within Alan’s plan, it was also a sweet burden.
After losing his best employee, Yupanki, Alan’s no longer had a leisurely life. After opening the tavern, he was always circling among the customers. Alan eagerly put the matter of finding new employees on his agenda.
