The Immortal's Wine Store Chapter 253
Advertisement
Princess Sylvia came out of the wine storage with a beautiful smile on her face. Following behind her was the fourth prince who looked a bit nervous.
'I just hope that we won't be punished too severely because of this. I wonder what will happen to them if they drink these wines?' The fourth prince thought to himself as he glanced at the wines that they were carrying.
The patriarch and his group ordered twelve Ables Blanc, but his sister purposely brought twelve Deep Sea Spring Dew instead. He was not sure what would happen to them if they consume everything...
'I remember Wine Master Jiu saying that one would go 'kaboom' if their strength is not enough to handle the wine's energy.' The fourth prince shivered at the thought of it, but he still decided to go along with his sister's plan. This was the least thing he could do for Liu Mengdi as his friend.
"Guests, here's your order." Princess Sylvia smiled warmly as she placed the bottles of Deep Sea Spring Dew on the patriarch's table. The corners of her mouth were tilted so highly that her smile almost looked very suspicious, but the patriarch did not think too much about it since his focus was entirely on Liu Mengdi.
"Thanks, Your Highness." The patriarch smiled at Princess Sylvia.
"No problem. Just call me if you need anything else." Princess Sylvia said.
The patriarch was slightly overwhelmed by her smile and attitude that he failed to see the unnatural look on the fourth prince's face.
Princess Sylvia and the fourth prince glanced at Liu Mengdi who was seated with the patriarch's group. Their gazes were full of hidden meaning, but Liu Mengdi was uncertain about what they had in their minds.

The pair of siblings then walked away with different expressions on their faces. One wore a crafty smile, while the other looked slightly worried.
Looking at their departing figures, the patriarch was all smiles. He then stared at Liu Mengdi while taking one bottle of wine to himself.
"Liu Mengdi, you can't stay here forever. The store will close before nightfall and it is when your little life will be in our hands." The patriarch chuckled with a cruel look on his face. His subordinates also gazed at Liu Mengdi with unmasked ferocity.
Looking at their expressions, Liu Mengdi merely smiled nonchalantly as he shrugged his shoulders. "I think I can remember you saying the same words a few days ago, but what happened? I was still able to escape unharmed and I was even able to kill a few worthless trashes along the way." He chuckled mockingly while staring at the patriarch.
Liu Mengdi's words made the patriarch boil with rage. His veins protruded and he could not wait to strangle Liu Mengdi. However, he held himself back and closed his to calm his raging nerves.
After calming himself down, the patriarch gazed solemnly at Liu Mengdi and coldly said. "If I ever manage to capture you tonight, I hope that you would be able to maintain that smile on your face!"
Liu Mengdi put on a scared look as he said with a sarcastic tone. "So scary! Haha!"
The patriarch's face twitched, but he still managed to force out a cruel smile. He then pulled out the cork on his wine bottle.
'Hm? This... Isn't this... Did the princess take the wrong wines for us?' The patriarch stared at the bottle of wine in his hands with a bewildered expression. He knew that the wine bottle in his hands did not contain Ables Blanc, instead, inside was the most expensive wine in the store, the Deep Sea Spring Dew.

He checked the rest of the wine bottles and he found out that everything was all the same.
'Is the princess still unable to recognize the difference between the two wines after working here for more than a month or did she just make a mistake?' The patriarch felt slightly suspicious about this, but he put the matter at the back of his head and just filled his cup with the Deep Sea Spring Dew.
He was already a 7th-rank Emperor realm expert, so there is no problem about consuming an entire bottle of Deep Sea Spring Dew. His subordinates weren't weak either and they should be able to handle the wine's energy, so he was not worried about it.
The patriarch smiled lightly as he stared at the golden liquid in his cup. The smell was beyond fragrant and he could even sense his true essence palpitating wildly after that one sniff.
"What a treasure indeed!" He exclaimed silently before he held the cup towards his lips.
Gulp. Gulp. Gulp.
After seeing their boss drinking his share of wine, the others immediately followed suit. They filled their cups with the shimmering golden liquid while staring at it with fascinated eyes.
Liu Mengdi frowned when he saw the golden liquid inside their cups. He knew that there was only one wine with that kind of color in the store, the Deep Sea Spring Dew...
'Didn't they order twelve Ables Blanc? How come... I see... Princess Sylvia, that cunning girl...' Liu Mengdi's eyes narrowed as he held himself from laughing. He was certain that Princess Sylvia was planning something mischievous. The latter was known as a naughty little kid since she was young and even Liu Mengdi himself was among those who fell from her plots.
Thinking about this, Liu Mengdi stared at Princess Sylvia with the corner of his eyes and he instantly discovered the cunning smile plastered on her beautiful face.
The patriarch closed his eyes in delight as he savored the wine in his cup. Even though he had already tasted it, he could still not help but feel refreshed at how it felt inside his mouth.
Ah~
He moaned in pleasure with his eyes shut tight.
It wasn't just him. His subordinates also had similar faces as they drank their wine.
Liu Mengdi's smile broadened as he stared at them. The slight worry in his heart was now gone and it was replaced with excitement.
'These fools!' He snickered in his heart.

Pocket Dungeon Lite
Based on the Pocket Dungeon original novel made by Stuckin (I asked for his permission beforehand). I do not know if this could count as a fanfiction as I made up many elements on the go so, for now, I will list this as an original but if Stuckin-sama would like me to change it I will be fine with doing so. This is somewhat of a self-insert but I made sure not to make the MC to OP. Also, the creator of the cover is Vurguy I tried to contact him to ask for permission but couldn't due to technical issues please go support him on Deviant Art and I don't own the picture so if he wants me to take it down than I am completely okay with doing so. As I am an improving author, I am glad to receive any constructive criticism or critical review I just hope that everyone will give me a chance before they yell at me for something or at least tell me what made them angry so I know what the issue is and can figure out how to deal with it. For now, my schedule is 1-2 chapters a week and if I am busy with either work or school 1-3 chapters every 2 weeks. I expect a bunch of chapters at the beginning around 5 or so and for me to continue from there. I will try my best to keep some chapters in storage for any time where I can't write for whatever reason. I will continue to change this part of the synopsis if anything changes in my update schedule. - From a thoughtful Author Pocket Dungeon is a widespread interstellar game that has captivated the attention of many races and civilizations. Nowadays in the 2300s anyone not living under a rock would grow up with a dungeon and learn to manage it over time as they make mistakes along the way. But as all things go there is always an exception and this exception can be found in Nadezhda Ledopad who had an overprotective family that didn't let him interact with anything but those they deemed worthy and safe. This overprotectiveness caused them to forbid him from gaining a pocket dungeon as they knew with his intelligence and specialties in certain fields he would become a strong dungeon master, quickly. This was something his family was very much against as they knew that his competitiveness and duty to maintain the Ledopad family's reputation would push him to win in the competitions that he would inevitably get invited too. This all changed when Nadezh graduated high school and moved to the Celestial Plane capital star as a Prodigal student in planetary conservation (major) and revival of species through DNA transferal (minor). His brother in all but blood Tet schemed to get him into Pocket Dungeons when they got there as no one would keep Nadezh from playing. Nadezh excited to join his peers in this famous game looked forward to doing so. But with this one decision, many futures changed and the Fates laughed as people of strong destinies meet together on this plane. Warning - This will probably contain LGBT+ relationships. You have been warned, I will not tolerate stupidity to the ninth degree in the comment section and I hope that people can be logical enough to GO AWAY if they don't like this kind of thing. If you don't feel comfortable with mature or explicit scenes I will put a warning in the chapters or parts with such and I just wanted all of you to know that this will be a long novel as with most novel I will write in the future so don't expect a deep romantic relationship anytime soon.

Phantom Storm
"Have you heard, the entire Bonanno crew was brutally murdered!" Exclaimed a youth in his early teens. "What? you're lying, again!" Another similarly aged child responded with crisp denial in his tone. After all, the crew was infamous for their ruthlessness. An eery silence passed between them. Soon enough, the teens' curiosity trumped his ego, and he found himself inquiring in a meek voice. "So...Who did it?" "I heard my father talking about it while he was drunk. Guess what he said?..." The child responded, he was a natural-born storyteller. Listening intently, the other teen urged him on. "It was done by a single person. When the police arrived, the bodies were charred black, likely the work of an electro mage. Most had an arrow or two lodged in their body, and a few were even chopped into neat little slices by a sharp blade." He paused, inhaling sharply. "All the victims had shocked expressions on their faces. As if the enemy was invisible or something. That's why they call that person the Phantom Storm!" concluded the adolescent with an excited glint in his eyes. 2 CHAPTERS PER WEEK (Canada time) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] -------------------------------------------- Follow Itsuki as he is reincarnated in an unfamiliar world, left to discover where he belongs in such a place.
