Tavern in Another Dimension:Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start

Wayne thought about the man he had just met who seemed to be an old acquaintance. He couldn’t remember meeting him in the Eagle Group.

He was confident in his memory. He remembered everyone in the mercenary group, but there really was no such person called Peg.

He didn’t know what that kid was planning by approaching him like that. The intimidation just now should be enough to make him confused for a while.

There shouldn’t be anyone else in the Imperial City who knew that Wayne had recovered his strength other than Olivia.

Peg was indeed frightened by Wayne’s last look. He stayed in the alley for a long time, unable to come back to his senses.

“What was that just now!”

“Wasn’t he already a cripple for the rest of his life?”

“No… I must be wrong. It’s impossible for him to recover!”

“No, I have to go back and tell His Highness. That man is back…”

Peg muttered to himself in the alley alone, as if trying to convince himself that what happened just now was just an accident.

“Move…”

He looked anxious and his forehead was full of sweat. His hands hit his legs hard, but his legs just kept shaking, and he couldn’t move at all.

…

“Hey, pigeon, whose pet are you?”

Under the lead of the fat pigeon, Wayne walked through the alley towards the princess’s residence.

“Hey, pigeon, say something. Weren’t you able to speak just now? Why aren’t you speaking now?”

Out of his confidence in his current strength, Wayne’s curiosity towards the man just now was not as high as the interest of the fat pigeon on his shoulder.

After all, it was not an easy thing to hurt him now, but this was the first time he had seen such a fat pigeon.

On the way to the princess’s residence, Wayne tried his best to make the fat pigeon speak, but other than the words he said when they met, it did not make a sound.

In front of the princess’s residence, the fat pigeon flapped its wings and left Wayne’s shoulder, still not saying a word.

“Does this fat pigeon know how to talk?” Wayne was puzzled.

They finally arrived at the princess’s residence. The door opened from the inside, and a knight opened the door to welcome Wayne in.

“Sir, Her Highness has been waiting for your arrival.”

“Where is Olivia? Please show me the way.”

Wayne was used to the way he interacted with everyone in the tavern. Even if he came to the Imperial City now, he would still call her by the same name as before.

The knight who came to welcome Wayne was shocked when he directly called Her Highness by her name.

Even when the old king was still around, not people dared to call Her Highness by her name, not to mention now. Her Highness was now someone who was very likely to become the empress!

Wayne saw the knight in front of him staring blankly at the spot for no reason. He ignored him and went straight to the courtyard.

When he came back to his senses, he quickly chased after him.

“Sir, wait for me, let me lead the way for you…”

Olivia’s aura was still in the deeper part of the yard.

The fat pigeon leading the way was also in there.

“Yo, Olivia, and Cynthia, long time no see!”

Wayne came to the backyard and finally met the master of the mansion.

“Uncle Wayne!”

Olivia saw the person who entered the yard, and her face was no longer as serious as before, revealing a sweet smile.

The fat pigeon on Cynthia’s shoulder was about to leave.

“Hey, wait, is that fat pigeon Cynthia’s pet?”

“Then does it know how to talk?”

Wayne looked at Cynthia, who was about to leave, and quickly asked.

Cynthia did not speak, she only looked at Wayne. The pigeon on her shoulder had the same expression as her. They stared blankly at Wayne.

“Uncle Wayne, don’t make things difficult for Cynthia. Cynthia raised the pigeon, but it can’t speak.” Olivia said.

“Eh, can’t speak? It clearly spoke when it found me just now!”

Wayne was surprised.

“Coo Coo, it can only recognize my voice, and it can only learn to speak like me.” Cynthia explained before leaving the courtyard.

“Uncle Wayne, don’t worry about that fat pigeon anymore. Stanton has been captured for almost half a month…” Olivia said anxiously. The joy of meeting him had been replaced by worry.

When Wayne heard her words, he put away his joke and put on a serious face.

“Then tell me what’s going on.”

Olivia and Wayne sat down in the courtyard. On the table was the tea that Cynthia had just made. The temperature was just right.

Olivia sorted out her messy thoughts and slowly spoke, “Actually, the most chaotic days in the city have already passed, but the next phase will be the bloodiest days.”

From her voice, one could tell that Olivia was exhausted. Her face had lost the pride and cheerful look she had when she was in Rock City. Now, one could only see the seriousness and maturity on her face.

“I’m not sure when Stanton was captured. Half a month ago, he came to report to me for the last time. He went to the fifth prince’s residence after leaving the princess’s residence. There’s a high probability that he was captured at that time…”

Wayne listened as Olivia told him all the major and minor events that had happened in the Imperial City during this period of time.

He also felt an incomparable headache. It was not an exaggeration to say that the current situation was a mess.

Especially now that Stanton was captured, Olivia became anxious. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

“How about I break into that fifth prince’s residence and bring him out for you?” Wayne asked with uncertainty.

“No, I don’t have any concrete evidence yet. Moreover, the previous operation has already exposed the information that I know Stanton is in their hands.”

“What if they’ve already moved him and swaggered up to the door? Those old fellows in the palace will definitely make a move. When that time comes, Uncle Wayne, you won’t be their opponent alone.”

Olivia directly rejected Wayne’s suggestion. It wasn’t a good suggestion.

“Then tell me, what should I do? You brought me here because you’ve thought about what you want me to do, right?”

Wayne was helpless. Using his brain had always been a difficult thing for him.

“Uncle Wayne, can you sneak into fifth brother’s mansion and confirm Stanton’s location, as well as that ghoul…”

Olivia said with some difficulty.

“That’s fine too. Then let’s settle it sneakily.”

Wayne rubbed his chin a few times and agreed.

…

After the two of them settled on the rescue plan, Olivia could be considered to have let out a sigh of relief.

After all, Yupanki had already reported Uncle Wayne’s strength to her very clearly in the news.

She admitted that she had made a mistake. When she was in Rock City, this middle-aged man, who didn’t care about trifles, didn’t seem to be very strong at all.

Olivia poured tea for Wayne, who was sitting opposite her. If other people in the residence saw this, their jaws would drop.

Moreover, Wayne had a calm look on his face as he leisurely drank the tea the princess had poured for him.

“Oh, right…”

After talking about business, Olivia also wanted to ask about some private matters.

“How’s the tavern? How’s it going?”

“I saw the information that Yupanki sent back. A lot of things have happened in Rock City recently…” Olivia said shyly.

Wayne looked at the girl in front of him. When she talked about Alan, the shyness on her face suddenly made him feel youthful.

“Hehe, I think you don’t want to know about the situation in the tavern, but about someone in the tavern, right?”

As soon as Wayne finished speaking, Olivia instantly blushed.
