Chapter 63 - A Hero
Chapter 63: A Hero
Alan spent a lot of effort to finally calm down the furious dwarf.
The dwarf who came today was the victor during the Harvest Festival.
“Bart, I’m sorry about earlier. Today, in addition to getting free samples of the new drinks, everything else that you want will be on the house.”
Alan looked at the dwarf sitting in front of the bar counter and said apologetically.
“Hahaha, don’t mind my friend. I was in the wrong too. I should have told you who I was earlier. It’s not all your fault.”
The dwarf Bart laughed and explained.
Based on impressions from his previous life, Alan had a good impression of the dwarves. After all, the most prominent characteristic of dwarves was their forthright attitude!
And this characteristic was reflected in Bart. Because of his mistake earlier, there was a small misunderstanding between the two of them.
But after explaining the misunderstanding, the other party magnanimously forgave him.
“No, no, no, please let me apologize for my rudeness just now. Moreover, you also said that we are friends. Let me treat my friend to a drink.”
Alan’s explanation made Bart very happy.
“Alan, your personality is very compatible with the dwarves. From now on, you are my best friend!”
Bart laughed loudly. His bold laughter was very infectious.
In Alan’s memory, it seemed that all dwarves laughed like this.
Alan was affected and tried to emulate his laughter. However, Alan’s laughter sounded a bit ridiculous compared to the dwarf.
Bart felt the kindness of his new friend and was touched. However, Alan’s imitation laughter was indeed unpleasant to hear.
“Oh, Alan, it’s not like that. You have to learn to speak with your diaphragm first, and then attach your magic power to it.”
Bart frowned and corrected him, his expression was very disdainful.
“Because dwarves forge and mine for a living for generations, these jobs are all very loud, so none of us can hear very well. Attaching magic power to our voices can let us hear more clearly.”
Alan listened to Bart’s explanation while learning how they attached magic power to their voices.
After finding out that Alan can’t weld magic power and doesn’t have any magic power, Bart felt sympathetic towards him.
Therefore, he put in more effort to teach Alan how dwarves add magic power to their voices.
Sitting at the side, Ai Xiaohei licked her fur and looked at the two idiots. One dared to teach and one dare to learn…
Fortunately, there were not many customers in the tavern at the moment.
The two of them struggled for a while before Alan remembered why the dwarf was here.
“Teacher Bart, let’s call it a day. You’re here to drink.”
Alan interrupted his instruction and pulled his attention back to drinking.
“Yes, yes, Alan. Even if you don’t have magic power, you don’t have to be sad. I’ll find a suitable method to teach you.”
“Teacher Bart…”
Alan was touched. This young clan leader of the dwarves was a good person!
“Meow Meow… Meow…”
Ai Xiaohei suddenly roared, completely breaking the warm atmosphere between the two of them. She felt that if these two idiots continued, the situation might turn dangerous…
After Ai Xiaohei interrupted them, Alan was somewhat reluctant to finish. He had good impressions of Bart. He felt that they had similar temperaments. Since they were also similar in age, he predicted that the two of them would get along.
“Friend, what would you like to drink first today?”
There were more and more varieties on the menu and Alan was a little conflicted about which drink to let him try first.
“We dwarven warriors only drink the strongest liquors. Just bring me whatever is the strongest, whether it’s new or not.”
Hearing Bart’s words, Alan knew what to prepare for him.
Bart already drank normal whiskey during the festival, so Alan prepared the strength-attribute whiskey for him first.
This new drink had a richer texture and a richer taste.
“Bart, try this new strength-attribute whiskey first!”
Alan placed the glass filled with ice on the bar counter.
Bart’s gaze seemed to be glued to it as he carefully lifted the glass.
“Oh, this cup is simply a work of art! Did you make this?”
“Alan, what material is this made of? How can it be so transparent? I can even see my face in it!”
Bart kept articulating his surprise as he asked Alan questions.
Alan was still holding a bottle of whiskey with the cap opened, getting ready to pour the whiskey. Alan looked at Bart who was holding the glass with no intentions of putting it down. He felt helpless and had to explain to him first.
“This is made from a material called glass. It’s not difficult to make, as long as you find the right method. I’ll teach you when I have the chance.”
Bart looked at Alan in surprise. He was very touched that Alan was generous enough to share the method of making glass with him.
On the Hailar continent, formulas and techniques were very precious things.
Each major race had its own techniques. The dwarves’ smithing techniques were the best on the continent, but they would never reveal their techniques. This was the foundation of their race’s survival on the continent.
“Alan, as your best friend, I have to remind you that in the future do not casually share such techniques. Every technique is precious. It may allow you to obtain a high status on the continent.”
Alan looked at the dwarf in front of him who was genuinely advising him. He could feel the dwarf’s sincerity and his heart felt warm.
“Bart, don’t worry. To me, only when you disseminate technology can you develop new technologies. Holding recipes and secret formulas in your hands cannot bring out their greatest effect.”
“Only in a benign competitive environment can transformation occur and develop into a higher state.”
Alan’s words made Bart fall into deep thought.
He grabbed the glass from his hands and poured some strength-attribute whiskey.
He realized that Bart wasn’t the only one who was in deep thought. Even Ai Xiaohei was also contemplating his words.
Alan didn’t interrupt their thoughts. He looked at the customers in the pub in boredom and zoned out.
After a long time, Bart came back to his senses.
“Phew…” Alan heard him sigh heavily.
Then he said, “Alan, I think I know why I like you so much. You are even more broad-minded than the dwarves. I heard that the sea can accommodate everything in the world. I haven’t seen it before, but I believe that your mind is broader than the sea.”
“Please let me, as the next leader of the dwarves, pay my highest respect to you.”
Bart jumped down from the barstool and bowed to Alan.
Alan was a little confused. He never knew that he was so powerful!
He couldn’t do anything that was related to technology because he lacked the skills to develop it. If he wanted to live as he did in his original world, to experience the convenience and comfort of modern life, he would have to give the blueprints that the system rewarded him with to someone who could produce it…
Did it matter whether he was broad-minded or not !?
Alan felt an inexplicable pressure under Bart’s excited and respectful gaze, as well as Ai Xiaohei’s respectful gaze…
