Chapter 384 Invite
“Bartoli, go buy some clothes!” Said Abel, pointing towards a clothing store. Perhaps Abel would also need some new clothes himself before visiting Master Robbin. Everything on him seemed way too small on him at this point.
Liffey’s Clothing Store’s description had tailoring for humans, dwarfs, and elves. Abel was not expecting to find a store like this in the dwarfs’ territory, so he entered with Bartoli while Black Wind stayed outside.
A gentle doorbell set off as they entered, and a soft voice said “h.e.l.lo, I am Liffey. Welcome to Liffey’s clothing shop.
Abel couldn’t believe what he was seeing. The owner was a young female elf. How come she had opened a clothing shop in this dwarf city filled with masculine energy.
“My customer, you don’t go to dwarf cities often do you?” The young elf named Liffey said with a smile after seeing the surprised look on Abel’s face.
“Yeah, how did you know?” Said Abel with a nod.
“Because the dwarfs are not good at business, so most of the shops here are opened by elves or humans,” Liffey explained with a smile.
“I see. Please help me and her pick a few suitable formal clothes. If you don’t have any, please make some for us!” Said Abel pointing at himself and Bartoli.
Liffey looked up and down at Abel, and then Bartoli. Suddenly her eyes sparkled ” this Lady’s dress was too beautiful. Which Master’s work is it?”
Both Bartoli and Abel did not respond. They only smiled.
Liffey understood the two, so she quickly changed the topic “We have a lot of ready-made dresses for ladies, feel free to try it on. As for you, I’m afraid we have to tailor it!”
After Abel had strengthened by the dragon core, his body had gotten even more muscular. Although he was already wearing a roomy long robe, he still could not hide his boulder size muscles.
“Thanks a lot. How long will that take?” Abel asked
“5 days!” Liffey said with a smile.
“If I pay you double, how fast can you make it for me?” Abel had a wealthy man’s tone. He didn’t want to wait just for some clothes.
Liffey was shocked, then she said with a soft laugh “tomorrow!”
“Ok then, please help this lady pick her dress first!” Said Abel shaking his head. Seemed like money could still make everything go smoothly.
“Don’t think I’m greedy. I just have no choice!” Leafy explained as she was picking the dress for Bartoli.
“Huh?” Abel looked at Liffey weirdly. She was very beautiful and also capable since she had traveled all the way here to open a shop. What she just said had confused Abel a little.
“It’s a shame that Master Bennett’s ‘Lotion’ and “Conditioner’ are too expensive. As a young elf, I don’t have much money, so I just want to acc.u.mulate more before I get old so I can at least get a few bottles. How amazing is that!” Said Liffey with an optimistic look on her face. Grand Duke Edwina and Malta Mara’s s.h.i.+ft to their youthful appearance had already spread from Angstrom City.
Abel never expected to become the man behind the elves’ greed. He couldn’t help but bitterly laugh. Although he had left the elves, he wasn’t planning to stop supplying them with potions. His status would soar and he would get quite some profits as well.
Even women that lived for tens of thousands of years were very picky when it came to their clothes. First Bertoli had to pick something that fits her steward status, but something that also suited her style. Just like that, those two ladies had discussed her clothes for half a day.
Abel took out the knight inheritance again and started reading it out of boredom until he heard Bartoli’s voice “Master, I’m done picking!”
“Nice!” Abel put away the knight inheritance and looked at Bartoli’s blush. She seemed to get too excited after a long session of clothes picking. Now, she was wearing a subtle white suit.
After Abel paid, Liffey happily sent Abel off to the door since Abel was such a big spender. However, when she opened the door what she saw was shocking.
Outside stood a roll of dwarf knights in golden armor, and behind them was a luxurious carriage.
After Abel walked out, a burly voice emerged from the carriage “the honorable Master Abel, Welcome to Miuah City!”
“Mr. City Ruler!” Liffey gasped and covered her mouth. She looked at Abel and then looked at the dwarf in a luxurious suit walking down from the carriage.
“City Ruler Poford, I’m just a lone wolf. You are showing me too much respect!” Said Abel with a bow. Abel wasn’t wearing a suit, but no one dared underestimate him.
Although the blocked road made things very inconvenient for a lot of people. They all suddenly grew excited when they heard these words by the City Ruler.
“Master Abel! he escaped!” This was the first thing that came to mind for a human in the crowd.
“The Wine Master is here!” And this was the first thing that came to a dwarf’s mind.
The response from the crowd showed that Abel’s reputation wasn’t tarnished even though he was a wanted man. Instead, it even raised his status. Since his departure, the price of all of his magic weapons had skyrocketed. No other weapon was as balanced as Abel’s, so every knight would go crazy to attain.
This made him even more popular. Now, his name had far exceeded a large number of old
masters.
“Master Abel, can’t you tell? Us dwarfs love your wine!” Said City Ruler Poford.
“I’m sorry that my abilities are limited. I can’t make too much wine!” Said Abel Abel didn’t want to give him too much hope. He didn’t want to stay and make wine.
“I’m lucky enough to try your wine before. It was definitely the best wine in this entire world. Since I heard of your arrival, I had prepared a wine banquet for you. Although it’s not as good as yours, the dishes are made by the best chef in our city!” Said City Ruler Poford, pointing towards the luxury carriage by aside.
While Abel was hesitating, he heard a family voice. “Master Abel, long time no see. I rushed here immediately after I heard you were paying a visit!”
“Master Thorin, what are you doing here?” Abel felt joy struck his heart. Master Thorin was the fellow of his teacher Master Bentham, and he was very happy to see someone he knew here.
“I’m here to attend the Blacksmith Union’s Chiner City Master Meet up. Didn’t you receive an invitation from the Earth dividing Basin?” Master Thorin asked in a confused tone.
“I never got an invitation. I just want to pay a visit to Master Robbin!” Said Abel shaking his head.
“Master Abel, I will invite you now on behalf of the Wizard Union, to come to the Master meetup in Chiner City!” Said Master Thorin with a formal bow.
“Master Thorin, I’ll accept your invitation!” Abel quickly bowed back.
“Both masters. How about let’s go to my place and eat as we chat. Master Thorin, we are old friends. You can’t turn me down” said City Ruler Poford, grabbing Master Thorin on the shoulder.
Master Thorin also put his arm around City Ruler Poford’s shoulder and turned back to Abel “Master Abel, let’s go. Poford is also a good friend of Bentham’s. We are basically family!”
