Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

272 Some People Want To Be Drunk
It was shocking.

Elandir, the Eternal Sage, the Glory of the Twilight Moon and the Dragonheart Grass, the advisor of the two generations of Phoenix Kings. He was a famous hero who had already been recorded in the annals and legends. After hearing Tagris say these words, the sour milk in his mouth gushed out uncontrollably.

He vomited on Hong San’s face.

Seeing this, Kang De’s eyes flashed. The passive skill, “instant recording”, was immediately activated. He turned around and aimed the phone camera in front of his chest at Hong San.

Hong San’s expression suddenly changed and he reacted extremely quickly. He kicked his feet forcefully and fell to the ground with a plop. He rolled and stood up again. The sour milk on his face was wiped clean.

D*mn.

Kang De cursed in his mind.

Sometimes, it was not good to be too smart.

As soon as this thought appeared, the elf with a bad brain beside him had already approached.

Tagris’s face was drunk, and his eyes flowed with light, almost dripping with water. It was said that the eyes were the windows to the mind. The gaze that had subconsciously removed his guard because of his drunkenness revealed the true appearance of his soul.

He looked straight at Kang De and even said in a coquettish tone, “Alright! I’m very easy to raise, and I’m very good at fighting! Moreover… moreover, my…”

At this point, the elf blushed and revealed a silly and shy smile.

—F*ck.

Kang De could not help but curse in his mind.

How should he put it…

Although he was almost 70 to 80% confident in his guess, no matter how he looked now, this was a gay male elf.

Moreover, his mouth was filled with the smell of spicy snacks and cola.

Although he had decided on that brilliant genius plan to beat him at his own game, he had not reached that impressive realm after all. Seeing that the other party was very close, Kang De could only reach out and push his face out.

Tagris whimpered in dissatisfaction.

Elandir finally took action.

He was crying outside the city and was drunk now. He was pretending to be crazy and drinking. His words were becoming more and more unseemly. He even said such shameless words—the Elven Sage was about to evaporate rationally.

If this continued, he would really commit suicide to apologize to the previous emperor.

Elandir suddenly stood up and said sternly, “Your Highness! Please shut up! His Highness Kang De is a member of the Goethe royal family! In theory, she’s still our enemy! If you continue, the reputation of the Twilight Dynasty will be lost!”

“What’s wrong with the enemy?! Isn’t the enemy better?!”

Duke Tiling cursed, “The noble elves were bought by despicable and ugly humans and reduced to slaves. They were bullied and humiliated like this. You sanctimonious old fellows who keep saying that the noblest elves have lived for a long time and your hearts are twisted. On the surface, you’re elegant and pure, but these are the things you love to see the most in private. Don’t think I don’t know!”

Puff, puff, puff…

Three consecutive shots.

Apart from the purest and most ignorant gorilla who did not understand, Leona and Hong San understood.

Kang De knew better.

Not only did he understand, but he had also seen a lot.

It seemed that be it elves or humans, Earth, or the other world, magical things like desire were really similar…

However, the lethality of these words was really too great.

Even if Elandir was an Elven Sage who had countless legendary deeds and had served the Elven Court for hundreds of years and was used to many large scenes, this was the first time he had encountered such an awkward situation.

He did not mention how much he regretted agreeing to this mission.

If he had known earlier, he would have stopped this matter even if he had to die.

For a moment, Elandir was embarrassed and angry. He was angry and frustrated. A dazzling light shone in his eyes, and his powerful magic began to tremble.

Kang De’s expression suddenly turned cold. The gorilla had already stood up and reached out to push Leona into the corner. Hong San’s body tensed up as he stared fixedly at the vital part of Elandir’s back.

The Elven Sage turned a blind eye to all of this. He raised his hand and smashed a 300% Spirit Enlightenment Spell on Tagris’ head, shouting, “Your Highness, wake up!”

The clear and bright arcane light fused into Tagris’ body.

Duke Tiling’s body shook. The flowing light in his eyes calmed down, and his drunk expression disappeared. He stared blankly at Kang De, who was close at hand, and at his hand that was pressing the other party’s shoulder. Then, he slowly put it down and retreated, pulling away the distance between the two of them that had been too close.

However, there was no surprise, embarrassment, or intense reaction.

Instead, he was a little sad.

He smiled sadly at Kang De, then turned to look at Elandir.

His calm expression was indescribably sad.

“You’re really annoying, Elandir. You’re all very annoying. Magic, magic, magic, it’s always magic. You keep feeling that all my problems can be solved with spells. Everything about me transcends the appearance set in your plan and can be corrected with spells…”

“If I’m drunk, you’ll use spells to relieve drunkenness. If I can’t sleep, you’ll use spells to help me sleep. When I cry, you’ll use the Joy Technique to remind me of happy things. If I laugh, you’ll smile and use the Iceheart Technique to make me not so happy because I’m too disrespectful when I’m happy… until I become your most ideal appearance.”

He said indifferently, “If spells are so useful, what else do you need me for?”

The atmosphere of this banquet hall was still chaotic a moment ago and filled with absurdity, funny, and strangeness. Now, it was terrifyingly silent. Everyone fell silent, including the Sage.

Elandir’s lips trembled as he whispered, “Your Highness, you’re drunk…”

The words he was about to say suddenly stopped.

This was because he clearly saw a ferocious killing intent erupt in Duke Tiling’s eyes close at hand. His green eyes were no longer as quiet as the distant mountains, but like the violent dragon breath of a green dragon, a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time was about to erupt with raging flames that could destroy everything.

Elandir’s body suddenly stiffened. Even if his magic cultivation was high, at this moment, pure fear arose spontaneously. He had not experienced fear for a long time.

In the next second, the flames calmed down, and his emerald green eyes were still beautiful and deep.

Tagris smiled faintly. “My muscles will become stronger after I’m injured. My mind will grow tenaciously when it’s pressed to the extreme. Elandir, when was the last time you saw me drunk?”

Then he looked at Kang De.

The elf no longer looked weak, angry, crying, gluttonous, drunk, or obsessed. He looked like an elf now. Although his body was still thin and weak, from the looks of it, he was as majestic as a distant mountain. When people saw him, they could not help but feel a sense of admiration.

He looked much more normal now.

If he had arrived at Valentine in this manner, Kang De would not have underestimated him.

However, he felt that… the elf just now was more interesting.

Tagris nodded slightly at Kang De. “I’m sorry to have let you see such an unseemly scene. Your Highness Kang De, I’m deeply sorry. Please don’t take it to heart.”

As he spoke, he smiled to himself. Looking at the dazzling array of new food on the table that he could not name, Tagris laughed at himself. “How strange. It’s clearly not wine.”

“It’s precisely because it’s not the wine that you’re drunk on,” Kang De said softly. “There’s a saying in my hometown that wine doesn’t make people drunk, it’s the person himself who wants to be drunk. It’s probably the same for elves. Duke, it seems that you really need it. Unfortunately, the world is filled with disappointment. It’s the same for noble elves.”

Duke Tiling stood silent for a moment and sighed, “I was noisy today and lost my composure in a sorry state. My interest is gone. Forgive me for my rudeness and I’ll leave first. Thank you for your kind hospitality. I’ll definitely repay you tomorrow.”

He took two steps back, bowed again, and was about to turn to leave.

“Please wait.” Kang De picked up an unopened bottle of Sprite and handed it to the other party. “You seem to like this very much. Take it back and drink it.”

Tagris glanced at him. “You can’t get drunk on this.”

“But it’s delicious. I’m a Sprite fan.” Kang De smiled. “If the Duke wants to get drunk again, let’s meet another day and definitely drink to our heart’s content.”

Tagris looked at him and was silent for a long time before slowly taking the drink.

The scene was quite funny.

The first time they met was a mess, and the first time they ate was also a mess.

“If any historian wants to verify what happened today, I wonder what they’ll make up.”

Watching the two elves leave on foot, they did not take the carriage and said that they wanted to sober up. Leona muttered softly. Kang De touched his chin with a complicated gaze.

Hong San said in a low voice, “Your Highness, what do you think?”

Kang De exhaled and smiled. “Unfortunately, he’s an elf.”

The night wind blew and the coolness assaulted. Tagris and Elandir strolled down the street. Valentine was still under curfew. No one saw the two elves. The Sage was silent as he followed the Duke.

After a long silence, the elf smiled. “Unfortunately, he’s a human. Otherwise, I really want to be friends with him.”

Elandir said softly, “Your Highness…”

Tagris stopped and did not turn around. “Elandir, you ruined my plan today.”

The Elven Sage recalled the other party’s gaze earlier and his heart throbbed, but he slowly said, “I’m terrified, but this is my duty. You have to know what you’re doing.”

“I know very well, I understand very well. You don’t have to remind me at all times.”

Duke Tiling took a deep breath and turned.

His gaze was as sharp as a knife.

“Elandir.”

“Yes.”

The elf said softly, “In my life, I’ve only done one thing according to my decision and heart. Now, I want to do the second thing. Don’t stop me. This is an order.”

He took a step forward and looked at the other party. He said indifferently, “Otherwise, I’ll kill you and let you die in Valentine as a return gift to Kang De. I’ll say that you intend to assassinate him, but the other party saw through you and sentenced you to death on the spot. You know that as long as I’m willing, this is an ironclad fact. From the royal family to the council, no elves will doubt it.”

Tagris raised the Sprite in his hand, then revealed a mocking smile, “In any case, the war has to continue, right? Kang De doesn’t mind taking another elf’s life and adding the name of a legendary hero to his battle results.”

“Remember this.”
