TL: Hanguk

It was obvious who had stolen the makgeolli from Sejun’s farm. There was no need for deduction. It could only be Aileen’s grandfather and alcohol lover, Kaiser.

“I was careless.”

It was a mistake to not hide the makgeolli, thinking he wouldn’t show up because he had been busy lately. It was his fault for leaving the grilled fish in front of Theo, honey in front of Cuengi, and makgeolli in front of Kaiser.

“No, but still, he shouldn’t have taken it all. I haven’t even tasted it yet…”

‘There were 10 bottles of regular makgeolli, and about 50 bottles of makgeolli mixed with crops…’

“Then, I need to get scales equivalent to 160 bottles of makgeolli.”

He decided to charge a threefold premium for the makgeolli mixed with crops since it took more effort to make.

As Sejun was doing the calculations in his head,

-Our Sejun was here!

Flap. Flap.

Kaiser flew quickly, calling out to Sejun.

“Yes?!”

‘Our Sejun?’ Sejun was startled by Kaiser’s way of addressing him. When did he change from calling him ‘rascal Sejun’ to ‘our Sejun’?

As Sejun was puzzled by Kaiser’s tone,

-You wonderful fellow! When did you make such makgeolli?!

Kaiser began to praise Sejun outright.

A few hours earlier.

“Kahahaha. Let’s drink again!”

The dragons continued their drinking session with the makgeolli brought by Kaiser.

“Oh! There was makgeolli in the Black Tower too!”

“Kahahaha. Our tower farmer made it for me!”

Kaiser, who believed strongly that it was made for him, even though he had stolen it without permission, served the regular makgeolli to the dragons.

Slurp.

“Should we try it?”

Gulp. Gulp.

Each dragon took a bottle of makgeolli and drank it as they chatted.

“Hmph! Still, it’s not as good as our tower farmer’s, right?”

Artemis, whose pride was a bit hurt by the unexpectedly delicious makgeolli, spoke with a sentiment that he couldn’t lose.

“What?! Are you belittling the makgeolli made by our Sejun?! Come out! It’s a duel!”

Kaiser shouted, infuriated by Artemis’s comment. Inside the tower, he might disregard him, but outside, disrespecting Sejun’s makgeolli was equivalent to belittling him.

“You think I won’t come out if you ask me to?!”

Thud! Bang!

As Kaiser and Artemis started to fight outside,

“Come on. Drink up! Cheer up, Kellion. Ajax will surely succeed in farming someday.”

“Thanks, even if it’s just words.”

Regardless of the two fighting, Brachio and Kellion continued to drink makgeolli.

“Heh. Good! What? It’s already gone?”

“There’s more here.”

Kellion and Brachio, who quickly emptied a bottle of makgeolli each, used magic to move a bottle each from what Kaiser had brought, to in front of them.
