A Bar In An Alternate World: Pick Up A Young Witch - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Pay with Your Body Since You Don’t Have Any Gold Coins

Honeyed Apples was a simple cocktail. All the ingredients were listed in the name. All it needed was honey and apple brandy. After mixing them, add a suitable amount of hot water and the cocktail was done.

Lin Ge poured 60 milliliters of Calvados into a beer glass, then added 10 milliliters of honey. After mixing it well, Elise came over with a glass of hot water.

Lin Ge touched the glass with his fingertips. After confirming that the temperature was fine, he poured the hot water into the glass and filled it to 80% full. With that, the cocktail named Honeyed Apples was done.

The bright wine had an alluring color under the light, and the aroma of apples and honey seemed to bring people into an orchard under the sun.

When Diluko smelled the apple fragrance, she was already drooling.

“Is this for me?”

Lin Ge smiled as he pushed the glass to her. “Please enjoy.”

“Thank you. I won’t stand on ceremony then.” A long blue tentacle extended from Diluko’s round body and reached into the beer glass like a straw.

She tried to take a small sip, and her water ball-like body suddenly trembled.

“What is this?”

The warm and sweet wine gushed into her body through the tentacle. The tentacle expanded and contracted at a faster speed. Soon, the wine glass was completely drained, and not a drop of wine was left.

“It’s so warm. I feel like I’m melting. Ha…”

Diluko’s body became even softer, like a melted snow cake, spread out on the bar counter, and rippled slightly.

“Would you like another glass?”

“Thank you, but there’s no need. I’ll be diluted if I drink any more,” Diluko said.

“Then please pay.

“Uh, pay?”

The intoxicated Diluko suddenly snapped back to her senses and tried to gather her body, returning to her ball form.

“Yes, the drink will only cost you one gold coin.”

Water droplets appeared on the top of Diluko’s head, “A gold coin… Uh, I’m sorry, but I don’t have that kind of thing.”

Lin Ge’s expression became serious, “Could it be that you want to eat for free? In the human world, everything comes with a price, and nothing is free.”

“I, I didn’t know…”

“Not knowing can’t be a reason to eat for free.

Elise, tell her, what will happen if she eats without paying in our shop?”

Elise walked to Lin Ge’s side and clenched her fists, “Since she’s so cute, why don’t we put her in a bottle as an accessory?”

Diluko was so scared that she quickly said, “No, I’ll give you back what I’ve drunk.”

With that, she wriggled to the side of the beer glass and sprayed bright red wine from its mouth. Soon, the glass was filled, and the color of the wine was even clearer than before she drank it.

Lin Ge looked at the liquid in the glass and frowned, “It’s different from when you drank it, right?”

“There’s a slight change, but it should be the same,” Diluko said nervously, “Please forgive me.”

“That won’t do,” Lin Ge sneered, “Do you know how precious the materials I used were? Even if I sell you to the ingredient merchant who buys slimes, 100 slimes won’t be enough.’ Sparkling and translucent water droplets appeared on Diluko’s body. As she moved, the water droplets scattered on the bar counter, giving off a faint fragrance.

“Ah, I remember now. There seems to be a gold mine in the cave I live in. If you let me go back first, I’ll go dig some and pay you back.”

“Hehe, what if you escape?”

Diluko was speechless, but she couldn’t bring humans to the cave. That was their race’s hiding place.

“Forget it. Since you don’t have the money, you can use another method to pay,” Lin Ge suddenly said.

“Another… method?” A hint of doubt appeared in Diluko’s big blue eyes.

Then, she saw the man in front of her take out a transparent cup and push it toward her.

“Fill it up and you can leave.”

“Eh?”

Everyone in the shop looked at Lin Ge. At this point, all of them could see through Lin Ge’s trick, but the blue slime still couldn’t. She only knew that as long as she filled the cup, she would be able to leave this dangerous and alluring devil’s den.

A moment later, the cylindrical cup was filled with a light blue liquid. The blue slime, whose body had shrunk by a third, lay beside the cup and panted, “Is… Is this enough?”

Lin Ge revealed a satisfied smile. “You may leave now.”

As if she had been pardoned, Diluko immediately jumped down from the bar. After bouncing on the ground twice, she rolled towards the door.

The door opened automatically, and the little blue figure disappeared out of the door. Lanya turned around and saw Lin Ge holding up the glass of blue liquid and observing it carefully with a smile on his face.

“Lin Ge, just now, your soul seemed to have released a trace of evil aura.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Lin Ge was still studying the liquid in the cup and didn’t even turn his head. The quality of the ingredient was beyond his expectations. He might be able to make some amazing wine with it. One couldn’t find something like slime on Earth.

“But it’s gone now,” Lanya said, nodding seriously.

“Haha, I just want to borrow some of the slime’s body fluid as research material. I don’t have any bad intentions.”

“I don’t hate bad men. The more evil, the better,” Karina’s eyes were burning, but she was ignored by Lin Ge. She pouted her sexy lips again. Elise picked up the cup of Honeyed Apples that Diluko had spat out and was about to pour away, but Lin Ge grabbed her arm. “What are you doing?”

“Pour it away, of course.”

it “This cup of wine seems to have undergone a wonderful change in its body. Don’t pour it away, let me study it carefully.”

“Eww, that’s disgusting. You don’t want to drink it, do you? ”

Lin Ge didn’t reply. Instead, he took the glass from Elise’s hand and sniffed it.

As expected, there was an additional smell that did not belong to the Calvados. Although he wanted to taste it and use his tongue that he was proud of to distinguish the change in the taste of the wine, he took into account that Elise and the others were watching, so he just put the glass into his spatial ring, planning to wait for the night when no one was around to analyze the taste.

“Right, I might need to get some materials from you in the future.”

“What?”

“The secretion of a spider.” After seeing how great slime’s body fluid was, Lin Ge’s opinion of the book “Biological Ingredients that Can be Used to Make Delicious Drinks” changed greatly. He was thus curious about the other materials recorded in it, including the secretion of spiders.

According to the records in the book, the spider secretion that could be condensed into spider thread contained as much as 80% water and a variety of trace elements. After dilution, the taste was unique, and according to the different species of spiders, the taste would be different.

Although some of them were poisonous, as long as they were mixed properly, they would have a special taste.

As a Lord-tier golden spider, Elise’s secretion must be the best of the best. Even Ravid, who had tasted all kinds of strange materials, had probably never seen an ingredient of this level.

Elise’s face reddened upon hearing Lin Ge’s nonchalant words. “Don’t even think about it, you pervert!”
