Drank.

Abraham opened his diary. He planned to write in his diary, but after flipping through it, he suddenly realized that he hadn't done anything during this time. All he did every day was learn how to forge during the day and drink in the tavern at night...
Abraham suddenly felt a little ashamed. As the vanguard for the Demon King, he shouldn't have been so relaxed.
He scolded himself and pulled himself together. Tonight, he had to get information from Wayne.
He picked up his pen and started to write in his diary with a serious expression.
Hailar calendar: Day 18 after invading the human world.
Abraham, you have to pull yourself together. You absolutely can not continue to waste your time.
Today, you must quit drinking and get new information!
He checked his entry, closed his diary, and placed it back in his pocket.
"Abraham, what are you doing? Hurry up. Dorje and the others already arrived."
Wayne shouted at the top of his voice from outside.
Abraham patted the diary that he placed close to his body and ran out of the blacksmith's shop.
"What are you rushing me for? I'm here."
I will not drink today. My Demon King, I won't let you down, and I won't lose to that stupid cat.
In the tavern...
"Abraham, why aren't you drinking? If you don't want to drink, then I'll drink for you."
Knapp poured himself a glass and reached to grab the glass in front of Abraham.
Even though his expression was conflicted under his hood, he still held down the hand that was grabbing his glass.
The pale face under the hood lifted and glared at Knapp as he growled.
"Do not touch my glass!"
Knapp was caught off guard by the look in Abraham's eyes. He suddenly remembered that the man in front of him who was usually drinking and bragging was a very powerful mage.
The other people at the table did not notice the small interlude between the two of them and continued to chat happily.
"Mister Wayne, mister Dorje, don't be in a hurry to leave after you finish drinking. I have something good for you guys to taste."
While Abraham was still feeling conflicted and Knapp was still in a daze, the others were drinking freely, so Alan took the time to invite them while he had a short break.
After Yupanki and Olivia returned to the Imperial City, and the popularity he gained from the Harvest Festival business was booming.
The increasing number of customers every day made Alan complain incessantly. He said that he needed to find new employees, but he was unable to do so.
After receiving the fourth mission rewards, the strength-attribute whiskey and the Burning Knife Soju, he successfully brewed both. He agreed to let everyone try both before they went on the market. Seeing that everyone was here today, Alan sent out his invitation.
"Little Alan, there are new drinks!?"
When Dorje heard that, he immediately remembered that Alan said he was brewing new drinks, but still needed some time.
Alan didn't say anything. He just smiled and nodded, then turned around and rushed to serve the other guests.
Ever since Ai Xiaohei got to freeload drinks from Abraham, whenever she had the opportunity, she would go over to him.
It seemed that as long as there was a first time, there would be countless times after that...
After her first hangover, Ai Xiaohei recalled her drunken madness and her dark face turned even darker. But if she wanted to drink, she could only get it from Abraham.
Her big cat eyes were full of slyness. Seeing that the busy young man had no time to care about her, she jumped down from the bar counter, climbed up Abraham's body onto the table with a whoosh, and drank the wine in front of him in one gulp.
After drinking the wine, her furry cat face showed a human-like expression of enjoyment.
Perhaps because she was good-looking, everyone in the tavern liked this little black cat that Alan raised, especially since she was very spirited.
The customers often watched the young man act like a father sternly educating Ai Xiaohei. At this time, everyone was happy.
After being nagged so much, Ai Xiaohei stopped hiding that she could understand the human language.
Oftentimes, Alan would say something and she would retort back. Even though Alan could not understand her meow, she still enjoyed it.
He usually did not allow Ai Xiaohei to drink too much and used the fact that she was a girl. No matter how much she protested, it was useless.
Gradually, Ai Xiaohei stopped refuting him. Anyway, when Abraham came, she could freeload drinks.
Tonight was the same as usual. While Alan was busy, she quietly ran to Abraham.
However, tonight, Abraham was struggling with his desires. He did not drink the wine in his glass for a long time.
The sky gradually turned dark. The customers left the tavern in groups of twos and threes.
"Little Alan, it's about time to bring out the new drinks, right?"
Ever since Alan said he had new drinks tonight, Wayne was waiting for the other customers to leave.
"Wait a moment, I'll go get it right now."
Alan turned around and went to get the two new drinks. He did not pay any attention to Ai Xiaohei who was obediently squatting on the table. After interacting with her for half a month, he already knew what kind of personality this thieving cat had. He had never seen a cat who loved to drink so much.
He thought that she would like Lafite the most. After all, the fruit fragrance was stronger. Unexpectedly, this little guy liked drinks with high alcohol content.
From the conversations between her and Abraham after she drank too much, he could tell that Ai Xiaohei enjoyed the burning sensation when the alcohol entered her body. It felt as if the magic power in her body was boiling along with it.
Alan did not have magic power, so he could not experience that feeling.
"Mister, these are the two new drinks."
On the tray in Alan's hand, there were two differently-shaped bottles.
The strength-attribute whiskey used the same whiskey bottles. The only difference was that the color of the liquor changed from amber to dark orange, but it was still clear and bright.
The other bottle looked much smaller. It was not a glass bottle, but a kind of material that looked like a pottery pot.
"Little Alan, look at the number of people here. Why is the bottle so small? How many people can drink this?"
Wayne saw the small bottle with the Burning Knife Soju and immediately expressed his doubts.
Alan smiled and commented.
"Don't underestimate this small bottle. Maybe two small cups of it will knock you out."
Looking at the young man's mischievous smile, Wayne did not doubt his words and sucked in a breath of cold air...
The others were also surprised. Even Abraham, who endured the whole night without drinking, had rapidly changing expressions.
Alan placed the tray on the table and opened the whiskey first.
"This is a new type of whiskey, strength-attribute whiskey. Ingredients that can increase strength were added to the original whiskey. Drinking it in moderation over a period can increase your strength."
They listened to Alan's explanation while tasting the new whiskey. Alan did not test the effects yet, so he did not know how much strength it would increase. However, the taste seemed more compound than the original whiskey.
Alan did not leave Ai Xiaohei hanging and poured her a small glass.
Seeing this, she gave him an incredulous look.
Abraham reached out with his trembling hand and picked up the glass that Alan poured him. Smelling the tempting aroma of wheat and the indistinct magic in the air, he drank the whiskey in one gulp.
Seeing that the new whiskey was well-received, Alan was relieved about his decision to raise the price.
