Chapter 1362: Demon Bear Wine and the Restaurant — Beast Tamer Xu Han!

~6 min read 1,192 words

Communicating with people in this great world of beast tamers was simple — all he had to do was follow the Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly's pronunciation, and he could pick up this world's language along the way.

With Su Yang's strength as an Imperial-grade beast tamer, learning a new language wasn't all that hard.

As for currency, that was also fairly simple.

Fierce beast crystal cores were the hard currency.

Even more popular than the currency issued by the court of the Qingluan Kingdom.

Besides, Su Yang had run into a squad of mercenaries earlier and come away with a modest fortune.

The restaurant server, seeing Su Yang come in, immediately went up to greet him.

Since arriving in this world, Su Yang had stripped off his military uniform, and after running into that unlucky squad of mercenaries, he had changed into the clean clothes they had been carrying.

The casual clothes those mercenaries had prepared for themselves were, of course, nothing fancy in terms of material.

But Su Yang was tall and handsome, long accustomed to a position of authority, with an extraordinary bearing.

Though he had hidden part of his strength, he still radiated a pressure that made it obvious at a glance he was no ordinary man!

This aura — Su Yang was deliberately letting it out.

He wanted people to know he wasn't someone to be trifled with, not to come looking for trouble.

Having seen countless travelers from all directions, the restaurant server had naturally trained a sharp eye.

"Sir, what would you like to eat?"

"Just bring me your restaurant's signature dishes!"

Su Yang didn't usually care much about food and clothing, but that didn't mean he didn't enjoy good food.

Having come to this strange world, if allowed, of course he wanted to sample its delicacies.

Of course, no matter how delicious this world's food might be.

When it came to killing people, he wouldn't hold back either.

"Our restaurant's signature dishes are quite numerous, and a bit pricey!"

"Don't worry, I've got money!"

"Right!" The server nodded, taking his measure. "Sir, would you like a private room, or shall I seat you in the main hall?"

"The main hall is fine!" Su Yang smiled. "I like places with lots of people — lively!"

"Any wine?"

"The best and most expensive!"

It just so happened Su Yang had too many crystal cores on hand.

Nowhere to spend them!

Today he felt like trying the feeling of spending money like water!

After all, his usual expenses were all reimbursed.

"Right away!"

As noon approached, the restaurant gradually filled with more customers.

The Demon Bear Restaurant was extremely famous in Demon Xiong Cheng.

Most of those who could afford to dine here were well-off, with some fortune to their name.

Ordinary people simply couldn't afford it!

Precisely for this reason, he had chosen to come to this restaurant.

After all, generally speaking, it was the wealthy who knew more…

Su Yang found a corner seat, and while waiting for the food and wine to arrive, had the Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly eavesdrop on all the customers' conversations in the restaurant.

Su Yang had come fairly early, and the Demon Bear Restaurant served food quickly — soon all manner of delicacies were brought out, more than ten dishes filling the round table.

Nearby customers glanced at Su Yang, took a brief notice, then looked away.

In this world, beast tamers held an extremely lofty status.

Judging from the aura about Su Yang, he looked just like a beast tamer.

A formidable beast tamer was extremely sensitive to others' gazes.

Staring at someone nonstop would be utterly rude, and those people had no wish to invite trouble for no reason.

A slender female server in a fitted, embroidered long robe, holding a wine jar and wearing a polite smile, came to Su Yang's side and personally poured his wine.

A fragrance of wine spread through the hall.

Many of the drinking customers looked toward the woman pouring the wine.

Staring as the blood-red wine slowly flowed into the cup, swallowing their saliva!

The pretty server smiled. "Sir, this is our Demon Xiong Cheng's most famous Bear Gallbladder Wine — please, do try it!"

The Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly quietly told Su Yang about the Demon Bear Wine.

Demon Bear Wine got its name from the precious Emperor-grade fierce beast Thundercloud Giant Bear's gallbladder, which was added during the brewing process.

Demon Bear Wine was not only extremely famous in Qingluan City — wine lovers from neighboring countries would make special trips here to taste it.

"I heard Demon Bear Wine can not only enhance a beast tamer's constitution, but also… ahem, boost a man's virility!"

The Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly said with a grin.

Su Yang lifted the jade-colored wine cup and took a small sip; the moment the wine passed his throat, his mouth and gullet suddenly felt as though burned by raging flames.

A warm current flowed through his entire body, and Su Yang felt nothing but comfort and lightness from head to toe.

"Not bad — that's fine wine!"

The pretty server bowed and smiled. "Thank you for the compliment, sir!"

Holding his wine cup, Su Yang clearly sensed that this female server seemed even more deferential toward him.

He thought for a moment and realized the reason must lie with the wine.

Demon Bear Wine — that's a great tonic!

The guests at the other tables around Su Yang noticed his reaction after drinking and began whispering among themselves.

The Seven-Colored Illusion Butterfly briefly translated a few lines for him:

"I once saw a Stellar-tier Beast Tamer drink Demon Bear Wine and break out in a sweat — that young man must have King-tier strength!"

"Anyone who can drink Demon Bear Wine without changing expression is at least King-tier!"

"Such a young King-tier Beast Tamer — that's truly rare!"

"Hard to say — maybe the man just knows how to preserve his looks!"

"…"

Su Yang set down his cup and pointed at the chair beside him. "Have a seat!"

The pretty waitress hesitated, looking troubled. "Sir, we're not allowed to sit at the tables!"

Su Yang picked up his chopsticks and said, "Eating and drinking alone is no fun — keep me company and chat with me!"

"Can I go ask our shopkeeper first?"

"Go ahead!"

Three minutes later, that pretty young lady came walking back.

Su Yang looked up and was mildly surprised, because the young lady had changed into a different outfit.

It wasn't the standard Demon Bear House waitress uniform, but a white printed long dress — she looked even more charming.

"The shopkeeper agreed, but I can only keep you company and chat!" she said with a smile. "Our restaurant has its own rules — they can't be broken. I'm… off the clock now."

"I understand!"

Su Yang beckoned and asked another waitress to bring a set of bowls and chopsticks.

"You eat too!"

"Alright!"

"And drink with me too!"

The young lady asked softly, "Can I add some ice water?"

"Go ahead!"

"I don't know your name yet?"

"My name is Xu Han!"
