Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 141 Eleanor Wants to Drink
It was not until then that Eli realized he had met a colleague.

Although he himself was born into a noble family, he did not like most of the officials in the empire. Although the corruption problem in the empire was not serious due to the pressure of the war with the demons, it was still a common problem among all countries (except the Elf Empire).

Eli didn't know whether the imperial official in front of him was good or bad, but his first reaction was that he didn't want to continue contacting him. He was on the battlefield, not in the officialdom, and there was no need for him to get familiar with any imperial official, even if he was his current colleague.

"Hans Hotel? I see, but there is no need for a dinner party. I just want to have a quiet meal with my family. I don't want to trouble you, sir."

Although he didn't want to have too much contact with them, Eli still maintained the minimum etiquette and just smiled and rejected the arrangement of the imperial official.

Eli's reaction was actually within the expectations of the imperial official. After all, the city lord in front of him was from the noble Bruno family and was himself a powerful saint. He was simply not on the same level as them.

Even though they were now working together in a small town by chance, the gap in identity and status made it difficult for them to get along, and being rejected was normal. At least the city lord was very polite and spoke appropriately, and did not just turn his face away and drive him away.

"Then I will leave first. I wish the city lord and his wives a pleasant meal."

Having been in officialdom for many years, this imperial official was also a knowledgeable and interesting person, so he left on his own accord.

Before leaving, he did not forget to point out the direction of Hans Hotel to Eli, so as to prevent the city lord who was not very familiar with the new Demon Hunting City from taking the wrong path.

Following the guidance of the kind-hearted person, Eli and his party soon found the Hans Hotel. It was called a hotel, but in fact it was just a three-story building that ran a catering and beverage business. The building was newly built and well decorated. Although it could not be called luxurious, it was unique in the emerging small town.

Because Alyssa was with him, Eli's identity was completely known, and he was inevitably stared at by curious passers-by on the way here. Now that he entered the hotel, the savvy hotel owner naturally knew that a distinguished guest had come.

"Dear Lord Mayor, welcome to our shop. Please let me know if you need anything. Hans will do his best to serve you..."

Old Hans, the owner of Hans Hotel, was just a commoner. Although he made a little fortune in the Demon Hunting City, compared with the great nobles, he was just a tiny ant. Not knowing the temper of the city lord, he could only try his best to please him. At least the nobles would not hit someone who smiled at them, right?

"Just follow the menu. We'll leave right after we finish eating. No need to bother you... Oh, by the way, we'll pay."

Eli and a few beautiful girls found a seat in the hall and sat down, and casually instructed the waiter who came over cautiously. As for Alyssa, she, a dragon, sat at a table alone, just next to them.

That is to say, there are not many rich people in the Demon Hunting City. Although the business of Hans Hotel is good, it is not always full. At least the original customers were not driven away because of the arrival of Eli and others.

However, at this time, the customers in the hall had forgotten to enjoy the food. They looked at Eli and others with different expressions. Most of them were curious, and some were surprised.

Although we are separated by several tables, I am still having dinner with the city lord, right?

"The previous one? Okay...Okay, we'll prepare it right away!"

The waiter and the boss Hans were both stunned for a moment when they saw that the city lord didn't even look at the menu and directly ordered a whole book, but fortunately they were smart enough and quickly agreed and went to tell the kitchen to work hard.

With the boss's personal supervision, the hotel's kitchen was able to serve dishes very quickly. It didn't take long before a series of delicious dishes were placed on Eli's table. "Do you have any wine? Five... Ten bottles of good wine!"

Compared to others, Eleanor is the least polite person. With dwarf ancestry, she has a straightforward personality and also loves wine.

She had been on the battlefield before, and drinking was not allowed in the army. After leaving the battlefield, she had been on the road and had forgotten all about it. Until now, when she was sitting in the hotel lobby and smelled the aroma of wine coming from guests at other tables, her appetite was immediately aroused.

"Sir, we do have some wine, but..."

The hotel owner Hans was serving respectfully at the side. When he heard Eleanor's request for wine, he looked at Eli cautiously and did not dare to agree directly.

No matter how you look at it, this little guest doesn't look like an adult. The Empire has laws that prohibit the sale of alcohol to minors. Although the Demon Hunting City is remote, it is still within the Empire and must of course abide by the Empire's laws.

Of course, if the city lord personally asked, even if it was against the law, Hans would have no choice but to serve the wine. After all, in the Demon Hunting City, the city lord is the law.

"Bring the wine. This is the princess of the Dwarf Kingdom, Eleanor Inbass. She is already 21 years old. Don't treat her like a child, or I won't be able to stop her if she beats you..."

Because Eleanor's appearance was so deceptive, it was understandable that the hotel owner would misunderstand her, and Eli had no choice but to explain, otherwise the little greedy guy would get angry.

"So you are the distinguished guest from the Dwarf Kingdom. Hans, I am sorry for the insolence. I will go get the best wine for Her Royal Highness the Princess..."

Hearing the words of the city lord, Hans secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately apologized to the angry Eleanor with a smile.

As expected of the city lord, even the little girl beside him is not an ordinary person. I can’t afford to offend her...

Soon, ten bottles of fine wine were served on the table. Although they were called the best wine, they were only the best wine in Hans Hotel. The Demon Hunting City was so remote and the transportation of wine was very troublesome. The wine they could supply could not be much better.

Fortunately, Eleanor was a good child who was not picky about food. As long as the wine was strong enough, she would be fine, and she was not picky about the quality of the wine.

"Ha... it feels so good! I haven't felt so good in a long time!"

Pouring herself a full glass of wine, Eleanor tilted her head back and gulped it down, making a satisfied sound.

Apart from Eleanor, Eli was the only one present who was willing to have two drinks. No one else was interested in alcohol. Compared with sweet drinks, what was the point of drinking alcohol if it made the throat burn while drinking and gave a headache afterwards?

Especially Cecilia, she had been fooled by this thing before, so she would never drink it if she could avoid it, so as to avoid deformation of the operation at the critical moment.
