Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core

Although Crowe was unaware of signs of growing interaction between the great Morphans and Illustrations, it seems that the God of Destiny did not want him to be spoiled by bystanders.

Crowe arranged the dishes according to Illustria's request and then decided on other personnel.....

"... what? In the village of Doran...?"

"Yes, an envoy from the Illustrated Kingdom is coming.Can I order beer for a royal party? "

For the New Year's party?

The "Tavern" run by non-fumes at the New Year's Festival serves hot drinks centered on hot beer.Even if not as much as the May Festival, the consumption of beer is considerable.We also need to stockpile up on the consumption at the May Festival, and here's the loose price for beer for the Royal New Year's Festival....

"Ah, no, it's... it's after the snow melts that the party in question is going to take place."

"What, it's not New Year's?"

If it's not New Year's Day, is it May?However, according to royal usage, the party will be held before the May Festival.

"... Noh... if there's room in Dolan's village, I think it's okay with me?You want me to be ready just in case? "

"No... that's something I'd like to ask you to do... but there's something else..."

According to Horn's report in a tone of apology, the villagers of Doran replied to the royal request, "I can't prepare anything, but I can't afford to supply a large quantity".Although it is now made in villages other than Doran, Doran is still the main brewer.Regardless of how it was requested by the royal family, there was a situation where it was impossible to secure a contract.

And the messenger seemed to have understood that.....

"If beer is impossible, something unusual... they asked me if there was any alcohol with a special feeling.If the quantity is impossible, the goal is to ensure quality and topicality. "

"... somehow, I don't want to hear about it... but what did the Drums say?"

"Hah... I can't hand anything over because it hasn't taken shape yet..."

"I mean... did you find out that you're making a prototype of alcohol other than beer..."

At the moment, Doran's village is producing two prototypes: aged and distilled liquor.I taught you how to mature the bottom of the lake in May this year, so I'm sure it hasn't "taken shape yet".

The messenger also gently retreated on the spot......

"... there was a second act?"

"Yes, the royal family inquired about an elf who works at the academy."

"Have you been aiming to collect information from your hands...."

So the problem is....

Looking at the place where the horn's voice sank suddenly, it seems that this is the point.

"... to the Dwarves who also work at the College..."

"... did they ask you..."

It was Crowe's undisguised mood that got into trouble.

There is nothing in the dwarves, but if the alcoholic deceased (dwarves) know about the "new liquor", it is obvious that they will not get it no matter what measures they take.I don't care about that, but I also want to avoid a situation in which I get involved - that's Crowe's basic stance.

"... horns... are the dwarves familiar with aged liquor?Or is it distilled liquor? "

Crowe asked the horn carefully because he thought the magnitude of the damage would change...

"Well... both of them..."

Crowe suddenly looked up at the sky - in reality, the ceiling of the "cave".The worst thing I can think of.....

"Ah, no, I don't think that's going to happen this time."

"What?... what's going on?"

If Mr. Doran and his colleagues are in the process of prototyping and are not satisfied yet, we look forward to their completion ─ yes.

"Whoa....?"

It's a more rational reaction than I thought....

"Horn, did the dwarves answer the question from the Academy elves?"

"Ah, no... the dwarves formally contacted the" liaison conference office "..."

"... did you explain the situation a little more?"

"Hah... it seemed like it wouldn't fit without that..."

It appears that the summit's decision was worried about the division of the "liaison conference".The decisive factor convincing the dwarves was apparently "ripening" technology.

Since the basic technology has already been verified to a certain extent and demonstration tests for lake bottom aging are currently being conducted, it seems that the dwarves have decided to wait.If you can drink delicious alcohol after a while, don't you prefer that one?

"… well…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………"

"I'm sorry."

"No... judgment around here is not something I can say. But...."

What bothers me here is the intention of the illustrative royal family.

The royal family would have already secured a considerable amount of vintage wine, but I am concerned that in addition to that, they wanted a certain amount of beer.

"If it's a rare alcohol, it doesn't matter if it's beer" - I was told...?

"... apparently planning a massive party... but you're saying that old alcohol isn't enough?"

What the hell is Illustration doing?

I couldn't help but notice that it was Crowe.
