The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 328 The Question of Zagan
Blue looked at the astonished Demon Lord with a faint smile. He stood there quietly and waited for them to recover from their shock.
After a moment of surprise, Physoris felt embarrassed by his expression. He coughed lightly and peeked at the other Demon Lords. Other than the Demon King Azgonoth who had already regained his composure, the other two were still in a daze.
‘I can't believe this woman is capable of such high-level space manipulation. From his aura, he seemed to be on the same level as me and Azgonoth, so it should be impossible for him to do so. Looks like the background of this place is not shallow.’ Physoris thought to herself as she looked at Blue with the corner of her eye. The woman was extremely beautiful and from the faint aura she emitted, Physoris was convinced that this young lady was a ferocious beast.
“Guests, I'll go and call our people to accept your order.” Blue smiled at the Demon King before she left with a graceful twist.
Physoris and the others stared at his back with narrowed eyes before finding a seat for themselves.
“Lady Physoris, from your observation, how strong do you think the woman is?” Azgonoth sat down beside Physoris and asked in a serious tone.
Physoris glanced at him and replied with an unconvinced look. “I'm not too sure either, but from his aura, he should be at the peak level of the Demon Lord or in his case, a peak level Nascent God Realm expert. However, this is just my estimate based on what I feel.”
Azgonoth's expression turned even more serious after hearing his words. His guess was almost the same as her, but still felt shocked when she got her answer. As a Demon King serving under Demon Ancestor Jun, he was quite familiar with the continuation of the Red Demon Continent.
According to Demon Ancestor Jun, the Red Demon Continent was largely controlled by the Devil Race, but there were still some races that managed to survive other than them. Although their strength was significantly weaker than demons, they still had several powerhouses protecting them.
‘Is he one of those people?’ Azgonoth muttered to himself as he pondered deeply.
“Brother Zorzoch, of the dozens of spiritual plants outside, I saw something that might be useful to you.” Zagan who was still standing suddenly whispered to Zorzoch.
Zorzoch frowned and turned his gaze to the giant and said. “Brother Zagan, you have seen for yourself the power of that woman. Even if there is a spiritual plant that will help me, I will not take any risks.”
Zorzoch was a cautious man and he did not want to foolishly offend someone just because of one spiritual plant. And from the expressions of Azgonoth and Physoris, he could deduce that both of them were wary of the woman. Only this made the alarm bell ring.
Zagan grinned when he heard Zorzoch's reply, but he did not give up on persuading him. “Brother Zorzoch, let me finish first. What I saw was a mature Blood Revitalizing Ginseng. And from its appearance, it should be a ten thousand year old ginseng! I know this type of spiritual plant is very important to a person. Your descendants. Brother Zorzoch, I know that you have the bloodline of the Vampire Demon. You don't need me to tell you the importance of Blood Revitalizing Ginseng, right?”
Zorzoch's expression turned cold when Zagan mentioned his lineage. Furthermore, Zagan was also right about the value of the Blood Revitalizing Ginseng to him. If he consumed it, he would advance to the late stage Demon King! And if it was refined into a Nascent Pill, he might even have a chance to jump to the peak stage of the Demon King!
Looking at Zorzoch's mused expression, Zagan smiled cunningly. Don't be fooled by its great stature and ridiculous appearance, this giant demon is known for its cunning!
“I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, guest. Meimei, Xiaoxiao, go and take our guest order.” Blue returns with two girls who look like late teens.
“Good. I'll leave the guests in your care.” Blue said to the two girls before she returned to the reception desk.
“Halo, guests! My name is Meimei and this is my sister Xiaoxiao. We are here to accept your order.” Meimei said with a smile as he handed the laminate menu to the four Demon Lords. This menu is provided by the system after the creation of the branch store.
Physoris and the other three glanced at Meimei and Xiaoxiao with dumbfounded gazes. They could sense that these two seemingly harmless young girls were actually early stage New God Realm experts!
Zorzoch who formulated a plan to steal the Blood Revitalizing Ginseng immediately threw away that thought when he discovered the cultivation of the two girls. He then glared at Zagan for insinuating him.
After recovering from their shock, they looked at the menu given by Meimei.
Wine:
Mystic Jade – 1 Blood Stone
Ables Blanc – 5 Blood Stones
Origin Frozen – 55 Blood Stones
Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit – 500 Blood Stones
Zagan's eyes widened when he saw the price, but he soon calmed down. He mustn't lose face here or he will definitely become a laughing stock in Morlon City. As a Demon King, he had a large amount of assets, so paying for this wine was not a problem for him. However, he felt a little reluctant to pay a large sum of Blood Stones just for a bottle of wine.
Not only him, the three Demon Lords were also dumbfounded at such an unreasonable price.
“Sister Meimei, I want to have a bottle of Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit and also one Deep Sea Spring Dew.” Physoris said with a smile as she returned the menu to Meimei. Even though the price of the wine exceeded his expectations, he still wanted to give it a try. He wanted to find out why the owner had priced his wine that way. He believed that there must be a reason for it.
Meimei took the menu from Physoris and smiled gently at her. The usual joy in his expression had disappeared. He did not want to be punished by his master, so he decided to work seriously.
“Total is 620 Blood Stone. You can pay your bills later, dear guest. Wait for me here when I receive your order.” Meimei said before walking towards the wine storage.
Azgonoth turned his gaze to Xiaoxiao and handed the menu to her as he said in a calm voice. “2 bottles of Blade Divinity Ardent Spirit.”
“It will be 1000 Blood Stones, honored guest. Is there anything else?” Xiaoxiao asked with a light smile.
Azgonoth shook his head and said in a cold tone. “I just hope the wine here is worth the price.”
After hearing his words, Xiaoxiao simply smiled before leaving.
“Brother of Azgonoth, Lady Physoris, are you really willing to pay for their wine? They are obviously deceiving us!” Zagan said with an unhappy look.
Azgonoth frowned and turned his gaze to the giant demon. “Enough! Do you think I'll fall in love with your little trick? Zagan, your plan is useless to me!” He mumbled coldly.
Zagan shrugged his shoulders with a shy expression. To think that his mind looks even though it is…
Zagan glanced at the wooden chair in front of him. With his size, he needed two chairs, so he took another chair for himself, but suddenly…
Hm?
Zagan was shocked as he grabbed the chair. It was much heavier than he thought and he estimated at least over several hundred kilograms. Although this weight was nothing to him, he was still surprised that such a small chair was actually that heavy. Looking at the stylish wooden chair, he felt that the material used to make it was definitely unusual.
‘This place is becoming more mysterious the longer I stay here. From the attitude of the three women, it seemed that none of them were the shopkeepers, but to answer my confusion, I had to ask them when they came back.’ The giant muttered to himself.
Not long after, Meimei and Xiaoxiao returned with two bottles of wine each. They then placed their respective wines on the tables of Physoris and Azgonoth.
“Sister, before you take my order, I want to ask you something.” Zagan said with a beaming smile.
When they heard his words, Physoris, Azgonoth, and Zorzoch listened curiously. They wondered what this giant was doing.
Meimei and Xiaoxiao glanced at each other before staring at Zagan. “Good. Please.” They say.
“From the way I look, the sister there, Brother Meimei, and Brother Xiaoxiao are supposed to work for someone, right?” Zagan asked as he looked at the young girls.
He sounded gentle, but his words were rude and disrespectful, but instead of being angry, Meimei and Xiaoxiao smiled warmly after hearing his question.
“This guest is right. We work for someone. Hehe.” Meimei answered honestly.
However, Meimei did not know that the answer was like a thunderous lightning strike to the Demon Lords.
