Prince Lieyang walked into the narrow tavern. He first scanned the environment of the tavern and then commented in an arrogant tone, “Although this place is as narrow as a rat’s nest, the environment is still acceptable. It will barely taint my nobility.”

He glanced at Elise, who was wearing a fake smile, and added, “If you were my maidservant, I would stomp on that fake smiling face of yours.”

Elise’s eyebrows twitched, “Red-headed lizard! I dare you to say that again!”

“Standing in front of you is the noble Prince Lieyang of the great Galma Empire’s Monra giant lizard royal family. If you say that scornful term about me again, I guarantee that my guards will burn down this tavern.”

Elise had already rolled up her sleeves, revealing her smooth and fair forearms. She clenched her fists tightly.

“There’s no need to wait until then. I’m going to teach you a lesson now, you ugly red-headed lizard.”

With a flash, Elise’s figure disappeared before Lin Ge’s eyes. When she reappeared, she was already one step away from Prince Lieyang. She maintained her bold punching posture, and the violent airflow from her fist blew past the Prince’s body like a hurricane, causing his armor to produce a series of metal clanking sounds.

Her slender wrist was firmly held by another well-kept hand.

“Elise, you can’t attack the customer.”

Lin Ge didn’t know how Neelu had appeared. He looked at the door of the resting room, which was tightly closed. He began to wonder if he was still asleep.

“It was this red-headed lizard who provoked me first.” Elise, whose wrist was caught by Neelu, said in a disgruntled manner.

“Have you forgotten the rules of the shop? The shop forbids all violent behavior, and only when customers cause trouble can they be driven out. Other than this, as a waitress, you must not attack your customers.”

“Hmph, I know.”

Elise pulled back her fist unwillingly. Ever since Lin Ge had arrived, her temper had gotten worse.

Neelu smiled and said to Prince Lieyang, who was standing still at the door, “I’m sorry, we’ve frightened you. Please take a seat.”

“Ah, ahem!” Prince Lieyang seemed to have jolted awake from a nightmare. He walked steadily to the bar counter.

“Hey, that silly bartender. Stop staring at me like a lowly frog. Hurry up and pour me some wine.”

Elise suddenly felt that the red-headed lizard was more pleasing to the eye after hearing Prince Lieyang berate Lin Ge.

Lin Ge tried his best to maintain a calm expression and asked, “May I ask… What flavor of wine do you like?”

“It doesn’t matter, but it must be worthy of my distinguished identity.”

“Aha, alright. Please wait a moment.”

Lin Ge wasn’t in the mood to make a drink, so he poured a large glass of beer for the red lizardman.

“Oh, not a bad color.”

Prince Lieyang raised his glass and praised the golden liquid. He then opened his mouth full of fangs and poured the beer into his mouth.

“It’s so refreshing and invigorating. I didn’t expect that your shabby tavern would have good wine. Oh right, give this beautiful lady next to me a glass too,” Prince Lieyang turned around and flashed a lizardman-style handsome smile.

Karina stared at Lin Ge with a besotted look, “There’s no need for that. I can’t drink anything else other than the wine he carefully concocted anymore.”

“What?” Prince Lieyang turned his lizard head which was full of spikes back, “What wine is she talking about? Give me a glass too.”

Even though Lin Ge was in a state of extreme shock, he had to satisfy the customer’s needs. He began to make Long Island Iced Tea almost instinctively.

Prince Lieyang watched as Lin Ge mixed the wine. From time to time, a long and thin forked black tongue would stick out of his mouth.

“Not bad. Interesting…”

After Lin Ge was done, he placed a cup of Long Island Iced Tea on the coaster in front of Prince Lieyang.

“A Long Island Iced Tea, here you go,” Lin Ge’s tone was like that of a robot that had lost its emotions.

“Tea?”

“Even though its name is Long Island Iced Tea, but…” Lin Ge was like a machine that answered all questions and explained to Prince Lieyang.

“Good wine!” Prince Lieyang stuck out his long and thin tongue and licked the wine. His vertical pupils suddenly enlarged, and he poured the entire glass of Long Island Iced Tea into his mouth.

Then, the Prince hiccuped and put the glass back on the bar counter.

“If you didn’t look so silly, I would want to bring you back and be my personal bartender.”

“You’ve been acting weird since just now,” Karina said, concerned, “Did that savage Elise scare you?”

Elise’s voice came from the corner, “Red-haired woman, don’t think I can’t hear you. Besides, what right do you have to call me savage?”

Karina seemed to have not heard her as she focused all her attention on Lin Ge.

“Who are you?” Lin Ge finally asked, “Where are you from?”

“My hometown is in a small town in the Osrone Empire,” Karina answered honestly, “But I haven’t been back for many years. I’ve been wandering around the continent. I only came to Castaron a few months ago.”

Prince Lieyang cleared his throat and said, “I am the honorable Prince Lieyang of the great Galma Empire’s Monra giant lizard royal family. I have been traveling the continent recently. The day I return will be the day I take over the throne of the Galma Empire. I hope that on this meaningful journey, I can find my other half who can share this glory with me. She will be the future queen of the Galma Empire…”

As he spoke, he glanced at Karina. Unfortunately, Karina was unmoved. She continued to stare at the silly-looking bartender, which made the lizardman very unhappy.

Hearing the names of these places he had never heard of before and enduring the envious gaze of a lizard, Lin Ge felt that he must have gone mad.

Could it be that a new continent had been discovered on earth?

“What do you mean by the continent?”

“The Aeos continent, of course,” Karina replied, puzzled.

“Oh… Aeos, huh…” Lin Ge fell into deep thought.

Neelu came to the bar and saw Lin Ge, who seemed to have lost his soul. She said in a gentle tone, “It seems that the boss didn’t tell you what kind of shop this is when he interviewed you.”

Elise also came over, smiling cheekily. Just looking at the expression on Lin Ge’s face made her very happy.

“That’s true. If we had made it clear from the start, he might have been scared away.”

“What’s going on?” asked Lin Ge hurriedly.

“As you can see, this shop serves guests from another world. In the world you’re from, the brewing and mixing techniques of wine are far superior to that of the Aeos Continent. That’s why the store manager posted a recruitment notice there and hired you. Do you understand now?”
