Chapter 149 – The Adventurer Sisters and Chloe

Even if he tried to present wine or liquor to his brother in return, he was in trouble because he had no knowledge about alcoholic beverages.

Even when she became an adult, her mental age did not change from when she was a child.

That is why alcohol, which is a symbol of adulthood, has never been drunk or interested in it, only thinking that it is too early for the immature self.

When her interest arises, her older sister tells her how to drink alcohol and how to get rid of drunkenness with mana, but she has never had a place.

Even though she’s ignorant of alcohol, she’s been wandering around the specialty stores that carry her liquor alone, wanting to take a look at the prices and types.

She was overwhelmed by the completely different atmosphere from the dessert shop, and the wall was higher than expected to enter Chloe alone.

Even when she tried to ask her sister for help, she even provided financial support, but taking up her time…

Thinking she wasn’t really holding back her sister, who seemed hectic, she turned to Chloe for help on the other side.

It was because there was a person who came to mind that she was suitable for this situation.

ㅡ How about something like alcohol? She seems to be okay with her sister’s words, so when she gave presents to the same adventurers or acquaintances, she usually bought liquor or wine. For the price, the box is gorgeous and the bottle is pretty.

Familiar red hair approaching from afar.

‘It’s Seria!’

And when Chloe saw a graceful pink-haired woman approaching her side, she hurriedly spoke her words.

“Ah, hello. I’m Chloe Dritna…!”

Receiving her own greeting, the woman whose eyes widened quickly cleared her surprised expression and accepted her greeting with a gentle smile and a neat posture that exuded her dignity.

“…Please forgive my rudeness. I’m Lilyne, a gold-grade adventurer from the Adventurer’s Guild. It’s an honor to find you like this.”

Chloe stomped her feet, embarrassed by Lily’s businesslike attitude.

“Please speak comfortably…! She’s Seria’s older sister…”

“Look! I’m not lying! My sister became an adventurer and her suspicions only increased.”

“… Ahaha. Shhh!”

As Lilyne let out a puzzled laugh, Seria grabbed her shoulder and squeezed it.

“Take some strength off her shoulders ~ Is Chloe okay?”

“Please treat me comfortably…!”

There will be no idiot in the world who would really feel comfortable putting Drit me in front of her and telling her to make it comfortable.

In the end, Lilyne softened her tone as much as she thought she could in front of a lady of high aristocratic family.

“I didn’t know that I would be able to meet the famous lady of Count Dritna. Isn’t Seria a little too lively… Causing trouble to her lady?”

“No! Me, never like that…! It’s just like this time, it’s embarrassing that I only get help every time…”

Even Lilyne knows that Seria is not the type to lie with her heart, even if she makes her jaw-dropping jokes.

However, the opponent that came out of Seria’s mouth was the Countess of Gdritna, who said that there was no one in her empire that she did not know.

Isn’t it the younger brother of Eclair Dritna, the 5th knight of the Empire, who is making a name for herself with crazy momentum?

Lilyne nearly dropped her plate in her house when she heard that the Lady of Dritna had cocked her and called for help.

‘A friend you hang out with every day…? The Lady Dritna and Seria?’

When she heard them talk about the academy, she thought it was an exaggeration to say that she would open her face and talk to the daughter of Count Dritna.

That is a great enough thing and I thought it would be a great strength in the future.

Even if they had a meal together, it reminded them of noble ladies gathering together.

‘···.’

Even when Seria suddenly went to her mansion of the 5th knight, she thought it was a joke to surprise herself.

The truth she was facing now was a shock to Lilyne.

But she, too, one of her pros who crossed her life and death – came to her senses quickly and began to figure out her information.

‘It’s a completely different atmosphere from my sister’s side. Still, they definitely look alike.’

Lilyne has seen Eclairdritna in her real life, who came to her adventurer’s guild.

She has an art-like appearance, but her atmosphere and eyes are unusual for her to do tough things.

Even if stabbed with a sword, she wouldn’t bleed, and if she kept peeking at her, she would radiate cold energy that would make her throat run away. The 5th Knight of the Empire.

It was an experience that made me feel relieved that such a knight was protecting the empire even though I was afraid.

The image of Eclair Dritna, imprinted in Liline’s memory, was intense.

That’s why, if not Eclair, it was Lily Nee, who was nervous as if her heart would burst at the thought of meeting her Drit or one of her sisters.

When she met her, she was convinced that she was sticking with Seria in a soft and soft atmosphere that was hard to believe that she was Eclairdritna’s younger sister.

But her carelessness is absolutely forbidden.

No matter how she gets along with Seria, on her Lilyne’s part, she should never make her mistake for Chloe.

“Shall we go right in?”

Lilyne, who took the lead in opening the door of her store, smiled at Chloe, she said.

“I look forward to··!”

“Sister. I’m here for the first time too!”

There is a story that adventurers do not pay attention to nobles when they reach the gold grade, but there is a limit to that.

Her own parents, who rule her as Baron Electra in her country, may notice her own gold rank.

Reaching out to a famous noble whose name spreads all the way to the capital city is a story that can only be done with lapis lazuli or platinum.

With my daughter-!

As the door Lily’s was holding closed, the bell rang and the waitress at the counter greeted them in a soft voice.

“Ohh!”

Seria is in a state of excitement with a new experience she has never had before.

Grabbing Chloe’s hesitant hand at her entrance, Seria strode inside her.

“It’s nice because it’s cool, right? The store is also pretty.”

“Wow… That’s right.”

Inside, there was a strong smell of wood, and magical tools exuding cool energy were lined up, hugging bottles with care.

In addition to alcoholic beverages, snacks such as cheese, dried fruits, olives, and meat smoked with a special wood are well placed in one place, which is eye-catching.

Lilyne, a regular at this store, quickly approaches the waiter who is about to leave the counter and explains her circumstances.

The waitress became contemplative, lowered her head in gratitude, and stuck to the counter, becoming a stone statue nervously.

Lilyne put her hand on her chest to even out her breath and took the initiative.

She smiled innocently at Seria and what was so interesting about her and looked around her with a curious expression, so she sneaked up to her and added a comment.

“I heard that the young lady is not interested in alcohol.

It’s crazy to ask a nobleman who is popular with common sense for a budget.

Lilyne was careful in choosing her words, as she might give the impression that a thoughtless question would be ignored.

Seria had a disapproving look at Liline’s extremely cautious attitude.

It is right to be as careful as possible when dealing with a high-ranking aristocrat who is new to you and does not know you well.

“That…! I don’t know exactly what my tastes are. They say they don’t care about food or alcohol…”

High-ranking aristocrats clearly have their likes and dislikes and are generally picky, but it was strange that such a person existed.

Although it reminds me of someone who is in the highest position and forgets that he likes cheap booze and peanuts.

Quickly erasing a man from her head, she picked up a wine bottle beside her.

“This is the best-selling type of ice wine. It has a pretty label and a brilliant golden color, so it is also popular for ornamental purposes.”

“I’m sorry… Oh, what is ice wine?”

Shame from ignorance. When Chloe, who blushed, asked, Seria agreed.

“That’s right! Explain that first! We’re beginners who don’t know anything!”

Lilyne wanted to immediately throw the wine in her hand and run away, but she came to her senses thinking that she shouldn’t dislike the Dritna family just in case.

“…In simple terms, ice wine is a dessert wine with high sugar content and rich fruit flavor.”

“Chloe. How are you?”

“Ummm…”

When Seria asked, Chloe closed her eyes and let out her drool as she touched the tip of her hair.

After thinking about her for a while, she opened her closed eyes and awkwardly moved her hand to add her explanation.

“Uh… Rather than a high sugar content, if I think about the image, I think a strong and harsh…!” Kind of alcohol would suit me better… Ha, but to me, he’s a gentle and kind person!”

“Ehh! It’s really not like that, right? To be honest, I could buy you dessert tomorrow.”

“Gee, not really!”

Although Seria laughed mischievously and stuck to Chloe, continuing her pranks.

Conversely, upon hearing Chloe’s gibberish, Lilyne almost lost her mind.

‘It won’t be easy…’

It was the first time for Lilyne to have the experience of choosing a drink based on a person’s image rather than taste.

In the first place, she’s not even an employee here!

The staff at this store take a lighthearted approach, so she thought she might make a mistake, so she stepped forward on her own, but regret came like a wave.

“Then…! Shall we go this way?”

…
…

Her sister also emphasized it, but Chloe’s goal was a return gift that did not go beyond her pocket money.

Her sister’s advice that even if she had financial support, she had to show her sincerity to the extent she could, she was sure she was right, she thought.

Even if she does it in the first place, it is impossible for her to find something that will practically satisfy her platinum adventurer brother, no matter what she does.

The part she lacked was somehow filled with her sincerity and gratitude.

After leaving the store, Chloe bowed her head to Lilyne.

“I was going to treat you to a meal because I got help, but… I’m sorry for only helping you like this.”

“I’m really sorry because I had a prior appointment with a request. It’s unfortunate, but it was an honor to meet the lady of the prestigious Dritna family.”

Seria tapped Lilyne’s waist as they were exchanging greetings! She chuckled and laughed.

“Don’t worry! I’ll eat my sister’s share!”

“Seria. You must never be a nuisance to the young lady, right?”

Seeing Lilyne holding her by the shoulders and smiling eagerly, Seria winked at her and gave her a thumbs up! Listened

She is Lilyne, whose attitude doubles her concern, but she has no choice but to accept.

‘I’ve been doing well so far, so it’ll be okay…’

“Let’s go!”

As Seria clung to Chloe’s arm and pulled her, Chloe hurriedly greeted Lilyne.

“Then see you next time…!”

Although if Lilyne had been there, she might have headed for an ordinary restaurant.

Seria and Chloe naturally went to the dessert shop even though they hadn’t decided on the menu in words.

ㅡ

Time is running out.

The day of the practical class, which Chloe had been waiting for with tension and anticipation, had dawned.
