I Became a Different World Gravity Wizard

43 – I’m here to kill you

When I arrived at the restaurant, Chloe took a seat and greeted me.

“Come on, have a seat.”

“Do not rush.”

I answered appropriately and sat across from Chloe.

Unlike yesterday, I ate less lunch, so most of the dishes were light dishes.

Furthermore, there are only foods that taste stimulating.

It felt like I was spreading a snack.

“I have prepared something special for Rail this time.”

“What is that?”

“I hear you like alcohol a lot?”

I silently nodded.

Even in the novel, I’ve read that Rail is such a drink lover that he can’t live without alcohol every day.

And I also like alcohol quite a bit.

I don’t know much about the types of alcohol, but I liked drinking light snacks while watching YouTube at home after part-time jobs.

And I don’t really have a hangover, to the point where I drink before bed almost every day.

“Originally, it is a drink that is served when a special guest arrives, but since Rail is a special guest, I brought it specially.”

“That drink… ….”

I looked at the liquor bottle Chloe pulled out.

No. To be precise, I looked at the logo on the bottle.

The logo attached to the liquor was the exact same pattern as the one attached to the letter from the imperial family.

In other words, that small liquor was a high-quality liquor handled by the imperial family.

“As expected, Rail seems to have figured out what this liquor is at once.”

“Are you really going to drink this alcohol?”

Any liquor with the logo of the imperial family is not only of the highest quality, but it is not an easy drink even for a duke.

You’re using that kind of alcohol just for me?

Of course, I never believe her words.

“What do you want from me?”

“Oops. I really thought of Rail as an honored guest and brought out the alcohol? But with that being said, can I ask you one favor?”

I knew that.

As expected, Chloe had something she wanted from me.

“Let’s listen first.”

“I want to know what was in the elf book.”

Chloe wanted to know the contents of the book written in the language of the elves.

I don’t know why she wanted to know the contents of her book, but she was told that in return she could drink the royal wine, of course she had no choice but to accept.

There is nothing to hide.

Everyone knows that elves live in groups, and how much she hates humans.

But I didn’t accept right away.

I kept my mouth shut and pretended to be thinking for a while.

And after a while, I let out a helpless sigh and shook the glass in front of me.

“Good idea. Rail. Come on, Duke, pour a drink into Rail’s glass.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Duke opened the cork of the liquor, the fragrant scent of liquor spread throughout the room.

The closer the alcohol comes to me, the thicker the scent.

My glass was filled with golden wine, and I raised the glass and smelled the scent.

Contrary to what I thought would be poisonous, the smell was quite sweet.

“Shouldn’t it be salty?”

“Yes.”

Chloe reached out her arm and pushed the glass towards me.

I also slightly stretched out her arm and slightly bumped my glass into hers.

With a little salty sound, I drank the liquor.

Then, the deep fruit flavor spreads strongly in your mouth.

Contrary to what I thought would be very bitter, the taste was quite sweet.

I also didn’t feel the heavy weight unique to Yangju.

I feel like I can keep drinking this no matter how many cups I have.

After drinking the most satisfying drink I’ve ever had, I looked up to see Chloe’s reaction.

“As expected, the taste is excellent, probably because it is the liquor of the imperial family. Isn’t it Rail?”

“Imperial family’s liquor is different.”

Chloe smiled a little, as if she was satisfied with Yangju.

As seen in the novel, Chloe is also strong against alcohol. His face did not change even though he emptied a glass of liquor.

And strangely, I didn’t feel any particular drunkenness either.

Even though I didn’t have a hangover in my previous life, my face turned red when I drank Western liquor.

“Duke. How many degrees is the alcohol?”

“It is 46 degrees. Young master.”

After drinking 46 degrees, there is absolutely no change in his face.

Contrary to what we saw in the novels, Rail and Chloe seemed to be really strong against alcohol.

Still, as I went beyond one drink and passed two or three, I felt that I was getting drunk little by little.

Your face isn’t hot, but you can feel your heart beating faster than before.

On the other hand, Chloe drank more than three cups of 46-degree liquor, but his face still did not change.

He just elegantly cooks and drinks, and smiles slightly when our eyes meet.

“Now, can you tell me what was in the book?”

Ah, I forgot the explanation about the book for a while while savoring the alcohol.

I lightly cleared her throat and told her the title of her book.

“The title of the book is why we must turn humans into enemies.”

“That’s a pretty interesting title.”

Then I told her about her content in her book as I drank each glass of her drink.

I explained how elves live in groups, and how many elves died during the war.

And he told me how many elves were sacrificed to buy beautiful elves as slaves.

At first, I thought it was cheap compared to the imperial family’s alcohol and explained it, but the more I continued the story, the less I felt the taste of the alcohol.

After explaining everything in the book, I emptied my last glass.

And then I looked up and looked at Chloe.

Even though she drank all the wine over 40 degrees, Chloe’s face did not change at all.

“I think I know a little bit why Rail has such an expression.”

“I see.”

Is it because I drank Western liquor?

Little by little, drunkenness begins to rise.

I will drink all the precious royal liquor. After the explanation, I got up from my seat.

“I will help you to your room.”

“It’s okay. I wasn’t that drunk.”

If I had been in my previous life, I would have already hit my head on the floor of the table, but this body, which is strong in alcohol, was only slightly drunk and was able to think normally.

After drying Duke, I turned her head to check Chloe’s condition before leaving the restaurant.

And as expected, I was drinking water from a glass elegantly, as if I wasn’t drunk at all.

What. If that’s the case, you’ll be fine.

I was worried about what to do if Chloe was drunk in the future, but it was reassuring to see that he wasn’t drunk at all.

So I turned my head again and went to my room alone.

*

Kung.

As the door closed and Rail left the cafeteria, Chloe, who had been drinking, put down her glass and looked around.

The only people left in the room are you and your butler.

After making sure no one was around, Chloe took a deep breath and immediately fell on her desk.

“Are you okay? Miss.”

“It’s okay. Duke. I think it’s because I’ve been drinking for a long time.”

“You are not good at drinking, aren’t you overdoing it?”

Actually, Chloe doesn’t drink much.

Her face didn’t even turn red, so I couldn’t tell if she was drunk or not because of her usual expressionless expression.

Moreover, Chloe, who doesn’t like to appear weak in front of others, hides her intoxication with her tremendous mental strength.

That’s why she and her drinkers thought her Chloe was very strong on her drink.

However, she had already drank a glass of wine that was over 40 degrees. From that moment on, Chloe felt her drunkenness rising.

But she didn’t even stop her drinking Chloe.

“Is there a reason you pushed yourself so hard?”

“Rail laughed for the first time… …. Nothing.”

Perhaps it was because of her drunkenness, Chloe shut her mouth at her honest feelings that burst out involuntarily.

Chloe, from the time she met Rail a long time ago, she has seen various expressions of Rail until now.

Of course, most of her expressions were what she had seen while staying at her own mansion for the last two days.

But among the many expressions she had, Chloe, she had never seen Rail smile.

She

She knew, of course, that she hated herself, but she thought it was a bit too much that she didn’t show a smile.

But the first time she drank, the expression on Rail’s face was a satisfied smile.

She liked the way he looked at her with contempt, but when she saw Rail smile, she changed her mind.

I want to keep seeing that smile.

I thought that it would be nice if that smile was for myself, not for alcohol.

Chloe, who has no interest in alcohol, wanted to be part of Rail’s smile. That’s why he said that whenever Rail was drinking, she would share a glass with her, even though she was already drunk.

Perhaps because of that smile, I couldn’t hear the contents of the book, which was the original purpose.

However, seeing the explanations of Rail that didn’t stop and Duke’s expression shaking little by little as he listened to the explanation, I could tell that Rail really could read the language of the elves.

Still, Chloe thought it was a pretty satisfying evening, seeing Rail smile, and the alcohol tasted better than expected.

“Would you like to go to your room?”

When I turned my head to check the time, it was already a little past midnight.

He didn’t even notice the time passing because he was drinking and listening to stories.

“Yes. I need to go in and take a nap.”

Chloe got up to go to her room.

However, he drank too much, and his legs faltered at the moment.

“My lady. Are you okay?”

“It’s okay.”

Chloe stopped the Duke who was trying to support her and centered herself.

And just as he was about to leave the room after ordering Duke to clean the dining room.

Kwaguagua-! Thud! Thud!

In the quiet dawn past midnight, the mansion shook with a loud explosion.

Then a commotion came from across the room.

Then thump! With a sound, the door opened wide and a maid entered the room.

She said to Chloe and Duke with a serious face.

“You must evacuate quickly!”

“What happened?”

“Explosion! Someone used explosive magic on the mansion and set it on fire!”

The word fire brought Chloe her moment back to her senses.

She was and she was quickly aware of the situation she was in now.

“Wake up all the maids and turn off the lights. Then release the guards and subdue those who set the fire.”

“Okay!”

The maid who nodded her head and immediately turned off the light after hearing her command.

Chloe took one look at the opposite wall with her meaningful eyes, then she turned her head again and ordered Duke.

“Duke. Take the rail and evacuate outside.”

“Doesn’t the young lady evacuate?”

“I’ll take care of it, so get out quickly.”

The Duke nodded his head at the serious eyes he had never seen before, and immediately left for Rail’s room.

Thump!

The door closed and left alone in the room, Chloe looked over the wall where the rail was sitting.

I felt a strange magic power over the wall.

Kwaguagua-! The wall he was observing collapsed with an explosion.

A man appeared through the collapsed wall.

His face and clothes were covered with a dark cloth to pierce the guards’ watch in the darkness of the guards.

“You are the culprit.”

When Chloe saw the flame magic rising from the man’s hand, she knew that one of the culprits who set the mansion on fire was the man in front of her.

It was a sudden fire and break-in, but Chloe did not lose her composure as much as possible and asked the man.

“What brought you here? Did you dare to find out where this place is?”

“… ….”

Her man didn’t answer Chloe’s question for a while, staring at her intently.

After a while, the man answered in a cold, emotionless voice.

“Chloe Krafden. I have come to kill you, the murderer of my poor brothers.”
