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

Chapter 72: Sophia’s Worries

The project for changing the electricity in the tavern came to an end.

Alan took the morning off and went to the Elf Tavern on the Main Street.

He was going to talk to Sofia about changing the lights and to see how his friends were doing.

Alan, who had not been to the Elf Tavern for a long time, came to said tavern that felt like stepping into a deep forest.

His mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts. He still remembered that when he had just transmigrated, he had spent the previous month in Elf Tavern.

It was also here that he got to know Uncle Wayne and the others, as well as Orina.

Those memories seemed to have happened just yesterday. Within the past few months, a lot of things have happened, yet nothing seemed to have happened either.

Alan felt that he was experiencing a very ethereal feeling, which he questioned whether it was truly a dream or not.

He stood at the door in a daze for a long time. Fortunately, it was not business time, or else he would have been in the way.

He gauged the time and decided that Sofia should have already woke up.

Alan went forward and knocked on the door. Sophia was not the only elf in the tavern. There were other elves who were working as waiters, so there should be at least seven or eight elves.

“Zhi… ya…” the door opened inwardly.

“I’m sorry, our tavern is not open for the time being. Please come back later.”

The one who came to open the door was a very young female elf. Alan did not see her in the tavern a few months ago and guessed that she was probably a newcomer who had just came from the Elven Forest.

“I’m not here to drink. Please help me inform Sophia that Alan has something to talk to her,” Alan replied.

The elf girl looked at Alan warily for a while before saying slowly, “Then please wait for a while. I’ll talk to the adults.”

“Bang –”

The door was closed again. Fortunately, Alan was not standing close to the door.

He stood outside the door and watched the people on the street come and go. It was a lively scene. After waiting for a long time, the door behind him opened again.

“Long time no see, Sofia.”

The person who opened the door was a beautiful woman with a cold face.

She didn’t say anything. She just nodded at Alan and gave way for Alan to enter.

The two of them entered the tavern. As he looked at Sofia walking in front of him, Alan was a little stunned. They hadn’t seen each other for a while and it seemed that she had revert back to the time when they first met.

“You… what happened?”

Alan sat down facing her and asked carefully.

The ice-cold female elf opposite him did not say anything. Her gaze fell elsewhere, but she did not look at Alan.

“What do you want? Speak.”

Sofia said a little unnaturally.

Alan frowned. He felt that something was not right. When she came to the tavern earlier on to drink, she was clearly not like this. There must be a reason why she had became like this.

Sofia was currently experiencing internal turmoil. The young man in front of her gave her a different vibe.

But she could clearly feel the other party’s emotional bias, and his bias was not her.

During this period of time, she had forced herself not to look for him, and also not to bear any thoughts towards the young man.

She had personally taken care of Orina and brought her up. Their age gap was not big, and their relationship was more like sisters.

Alan looked at Sofia who was generally expressionless but only her eyebrows were twitching. He stood up.

He reached out his left hand towards her and gently placed the back of his hand on her forehead.

“You are acting strange, really strange. You don’t seemed to have a fever, so what’s wrong with you!?”

Alan mumbled as he carefully felt the temperature on her forehead.

“Hey, what’s going on? It wasn’t hot just now!”

Her forehead had turned from cold to hot quickly…

“No, Sofia, what’s wrong? Are you sick?!”

Alan nervously looked at the female elf with her head down. From Alan’s perspective, her slender neck line looked very attractive.

Alan was focused on whether she was sick or not and was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of the female elf in front of him.

“Sofia, don’t force yourself. If you feel uncomfortable, it will be better to get treatment…”

Alan looked on and as her ears gradually turned red, the anxiety on his face became even more intense. However, no matter how many times he asked, Sofia did not say a word. She just lowered her head and almost buried her face into her plump chest.

Sofia was screaming crazily in her heart. She had spent so much time and effort to build up the defense line, but it was instantly destroyed by Alan…

She was once again lost in the vortex of her own emotions.

Sofia reached out her hand, grabbed Alan’s hand that was on her forehead and gently pushed it away.

“I’m fine, just don’t touch me. “Her voice was slightly trembling.

Alan let out a light exclamation and said, “Hey, did you hurt your throat? You didn’t say anything just now. Is it because you have phlegm in your throat so you couldn’t breathe?”

Hearing this, the thin pink bubble between the two of them instantly burst…

Sofia suddenly raised her head and glared at Alan angrily.

Alan, who was shocked by her fierce gaze, almost stopped breathing. He laughed dryly to cover up the awkwardness of saying the wrong thing. He thought to himself, “It seems that I was right. This is obviously turning humiliation into anger. I cannot mention this again.”

Sofia stared at Alan for a while and realized that he was clueless. What did she do wrong? A strong sense of powerlessness rose in her heart. She could do nothing to the youth in front of her.

The two of them were silent for a long time. The youth who had said the wrong thing did not dare to speak anymore.

Amidst this silence, Sofia tried to calm down her heart which was thumping wildly because of her shyness.

“Tell me, why did you come to see me today? Don’t beat around the bush, just get to the point.”

As usual, she was direct and straightforward and went straight to the point.

“You haven’t come to drink for a long time, and I haven’t heard from you. I was worried that something had happened to you. Now that I know that it’s because of your throat…”

Alan was about to continue with the rest of his sentence when a cold and fierce gaze fell on him. Alan, who was very aware of the potential danger signs, instantly stopped talking.

“Focus!”

Sofia frowned again.

“Actually, I have something very important to discuss with you today.”

Alan can be very serious when it came to important matters.

“A lot of things have happened in the tavern recently, but I would like to tell you about the things that happened after the harvest season celebration…”

After which Alan began to tell the story of what happened in the tavern after the harvest season.

Whether it was the arrival of Bart, the young Patriarch of the Dwarves, Lolita, the princess from the Abyss Passage, together with her magical pet, Xiao Bai, as well as the magical beast which she had adopted, Ai Xiaohei, the most important thing was still the bet between Uncle Wayne and Bart, and the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.

“The tavern has completely changed the lighting system to electric lights, which offers brightness and convenience. I hope to get your permission to let the Elf Tavern change the power supply system as well.”

After saying that, Alan stared straight at Sofia and await her decision.

“I’ll go to your place tonight and then decide. After all, I’m responsible for the Elf Tavern.”

Sofia replied after thinking for a while. As for why she blushed after saying that, only she herself knew.

It was not surprising that Sofia did not immediately agree to Alan’s request. After all, no one could immediately accept something that was completely foreign to her.

Even if Sofia did not immediately agree to his request, Alan still told her his plan.

From the tavern, along the back street to the Main Street, a few telephone poles could be set up to wire up with the Elf Tavern. In this way, the Elf Tavern only need to use the same generator as the tavern.
