Tavern in Another Dimension:Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start - Chapter 20
After drinking a mouthful of wine, the Chief Knight felt as if his magic power was poured into lava, boiling endlessly.
When the surrounding assassins saw that their leader was sent flying and was unable to get up for a long time, they felt a sense of fear towards the man in the encirclement who had taken a sip of the liquid from the beautiful bottle in his hand and whose aura had become stronger and stronger. They could not help but tremble. They did not dare to attack at all.
Stanton only took a sip of the high-level Lafite when he felt the magic power in his entire body boiling. He was extremely shocked. He initially thought that the young man was exaggerating the effect, but looking at his current situation, the young man’s words were quite conserved.
The high-level mage bottleneck that had trapped him for so many years received a huge blow just from a sip of wine. There had never been a magic potion in the entire continent that could do something like this. Yet, a bottle of wine did it! How unbelievable was this!
Olivia nervously stood by Stanton’s side. When she felt the magic fluctuations on his body, her face was also deeply shocked.
.
Stanton felt that the magic fluctuations came and went quickly. He thought that it was probably because there was not enough of it and that the energy was somewhat insufficient, so he struck while the iron was hot and gulped down another half of the bottle.
This was great. The magic in Stanton’s body was surging. In an instant, the magic power in his body was like a warhorse that was out of control, flowing rapidly in his blood.
Olivia even saw Stanton’s blood vessels bulging on his neck. The bulging vessels were signs of the excessive magic power rapidly flowing through him.
Although Olivia was anxious, no one could help him with his breakthrough. She could only pray that her Chief Knight would successfully break through this time.
Not long after, Yupanji hobbled back to the defense circle. Before he could figure out the current situation, the magic power of an Archmage burst through the forest, and the source of this power was the person that Princess Olivia was guarding, Stanton.
Yupanji could not believe that the man who he had been fighting against for so many years, the one who he have yet to win or lose to, actually broke through before him?
He could not help but think that his nemesis was about to be separated from him from this moment on. He was still a distance away from breaking through. Even if Stanton was slightly stronger than him, he couldn’t break through now!
“Tell me, what happened just now!” Youpanji clenched the collar of a low-level knight beside him and asked through gritted teeth.
“Sir… Sir, just now… that man drank a few mouthfuls of the liquid from the bottle in his hand, and then he broke through…” the knight was extremely nervous when the furious high-level knight grabbed him by the collar. He was afraid that if he said the wrong thing, he would be beaten to death by his leader who was dizzy with anger.
“What did he drink just now! ? Could it be the latest magic potion that the Oreste Empire developed? !”
“No! It was wine! I can smell the wine!”
“Impossible! What kind of wine could loosen the bottleneck barrier of a high-level Grand Mage?!”
Youpanji muttered to himself in a daze, but his question was destined to go unanswered.
“Whatever, whatever it is, we can’t wait any longer. We can’t let Stanton break through successfully. We have to interrupt him!” He immediately ordered another attack.
Just as the battle was about to start again, the knight who was sitting cross-legged on the ground exploded with the oppressive power of an Archmage.
“How is this possible!? He actually broke through and reached an Archmage level of magic!?” At this moment, Youpanji understood that his mission already failed. There was an insurmountable gap between an Archmage and a Grand Mage. The difference could not be made up by the number of people.
Olivia was ecstatic. That kid did not lie to her. The effect of the high-level magic Lafite was even better than what he said. After returning to the Imperial City, she must gather all the gold coins and send them to Rock City as soon as possible. She hoped that he could restore the recipe for the high-level magic Lafite and brew it as soon as possible.
Stanton’s successful breakthrough allowed the princess to see more things. Not only did she see the joy of escaping death, but the most important thing was the subsequent impact that the magic Lafite would have on the empire.
Stanton, who had successfully broken through, combed through the soaring magic power in his body. He stood up and calmly reported his current state to the princess, completely disregarding the enemies that surrounded him and his group.
“Your Highness, fortunately, I did not fail our mission. Stanton has successfully broken through and is currently at the peak of a level-one Archmage of Magic!” Stanton said to the princess with a proud look on his face. After all, the moment he broke through, his cultivation directly increased by one level. This made him feel extremely good about himself. The young man in the tavern was indeed not lying, he was a genius!
Oliveira was also quite shocked. She stretched out her hand and took the remaining bottle of wine that Stanton handed back. He only drank so little?! She thought that it would be good enough if he could successfully breakthrough. Who would have thought that he even reached the peak of level one? The group of people around her was no longer a threat at all.
“Your Highness, please step back a little. We’ll talk more after I’ve dealt with these small matters.” Stanton gave a standard knight’s salute to Olivia.
He saw the princess nod and step back, so he took a step forward and stood in front of the enemy. He raised his broadsword in his hand and pointed it at Youpanji.
“I’ll give you a chance. If you beat me, I’ll let all of you leave. Otherwise, all of you can stay in the forest!” As soon as Stanton finished his words, the faces of the people on the other side changed drastically.
They can clearly see this man who already broke through and advanced to the peak of level-one as an Archmage. Their leader could not defeat him before he broke through, and now that he had broken through, he had no chance of winning.
Youpanji’s expression kept changing as he considered the current situation.
He found it difficult to accept that his old enemy had abandoned him and broken through. He had been his opponent for more than ten years, but from today, he no longer has the qualifications to be his opponent…
“Tell me, what is the reason for your successful breakthrough! ? Otherwise…”Youpanji asked unwillingly.
“Do you think you still have a choice? Out of respect for you as my former opponent, I will give you a chance to choose. If you are not willing to accept, I can just make all of you stay,” Stanton interrupted him with a disdainful look.
When Youpanji heard this, he felt even more aggrieved. Although it was not pleasant to hear, as he said, he had no choice.
“Then let’s cut the crap and fight!” Taking a deep breath, Youpanji tried his best to calm himself down. After all, his opponent was no longer his old enemy Stanton, but the Archmage of Magic, Stanton.
