Chapter 786: Occupying both heart and flesh

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

Without a doubt, the dwarf felt indignant towards Sheyan because of stable boy Pombo's death. Nevertheless, the dwarf maintained some courtesy to glance at Sheyan while displaying his disdain with silence.

Sheyan remained silent as well and fished out his 'Endless Spirited Vodka' for a drink. The rich alcoholic aroma prompted Segimli to gulp down his saliva.

Sheyan then directly offered him a glass...…

In the face of such enticement, Segimli reached out his hand without portraying any resistance. It was akin to most readers being incapable of resisting to ravage Rola Misaki after seeing her melons....

Thus, the following affair was smoothened out.

Sheyan quickly found out that Segimli was 'merely' 131 years old. Indeed, just 131 years old. Besides, a dwarf's typical lifespan was 800 years.....

In human context, Segimli was akin to a 13 or 14 year old adolescent. As such, his uncle entrusted Segimli to Mister Wright to show him the system of the world, rather than allowing his nephew to idle at home while watching 'adult videos'.

That was the reason for Segimli's appearance in this caravan group.

Although the relationship between elves and dwarves wasn't excellent, it was precisely that both groups paid closer attention to each other. Just like the poor relationship between China and Japan, therefore many males during the eighties and nineties paid special attention and warmly received Sora Aoi into their culture.

Hence, Sheyan attained information on something he desired.

Information of that celebration banquet.

The banquet was called – The Returning Feast.

Known as 'The Last Homely House East of the Sea', where else could elves of Rivendell possibly return to?

Naturally, the holy land for the elves – The Undying Lands, Valinor. It was the land across the sea, a paradise yearned for by everyone.

Why hadn't they left earlier? Because only twilight elves knew the passage back to the Undying Lands. Recently, a twilight elf cultivated to unprecedented heights and awakened the method of returning to the Undying Lands...after this banquet, some of the Rivendell elves would immediately set out on a journey.

Sheyan's vision darkened upon hearing that and felt as though he had dropped a boulder on his own feet. He now understood why the realm offered him the opportunity to join Mister Wright's caravan with achievement points.

Evidently, after Maiden Melody's awakening as a twilight elf and being 'piak piak piak' by him, the elder elves must have realized something. Given her naturally gullible personality, she would've come clean completely. Therefore, to the elves, he was undoubtedly a sinner who had profaned a twilight elf!

Oh, the elven punishment for sinners was pinning to a tree with an arrow.

Sheyan suddenly recalled people in the movies being served the death penalty of being shot and couldn't help but shivered a little...

Thus right now, wanting to enter Rivendell while walking through a bed of roses.....that was simply a fantasy.

Sheyan sighed and located Reef before divulging this news. In response, Reef offered a bleak smile.

"Boss, why not scrape the idea of visiting Rivendell. Besides, the main mission didn't say we must go there."

Sheyan replied with a low voice.

"Impossible."

Reef persuaded earnestly.

"You still plan to abduct Melody? Not possible anymore. That time, she just completed her coming of age ceremony and was merely a 14-15 year teen, being seduced by your scheming words. Perhaps you occupied her heart then, but the years are sufficient for her to gain wisdom."

Sheyan refuted harshly.

"This daddy occupied both her heart and flesh then!"

Reef was momentarily stunned, his gaze that of envy and jealousy. In truth, Sheyan had never treated Maiden Melody as just a one night stand. After all, doing so was akin to feeling guilt for swindling a minor.

After a brief while, Reef responded with malicious intent.

"Hey, seems like your relationship with Zi isn't normal too, I wonder how she will react to your words?"

Sheyan felt rather smug upon hearing those words, but at this moment, the young dwarf Segimli marched over.

Observing the dwarf's thirsting expression, Sheyan knew what he wanted and fished out his 'Endless Spirited Vodka' to the dwarf.

With eyes brimming with tears and excitement, Segimli gulped down the wonder 'Endless Spirited Vodka'. The reason why storyline characters loved this drink so much, was most likely due to its life regeneration property. It was equivalently to infusing them with hidden vitality.

The young dwarf downed the glass and appeared unwilling to leave. He suddenly spoke in a low muffled voice.

"My Uncle Sandvik just called you a bragger!"

Sheyan squinted his eyes and asked.

"When did I brag?"

The dwarf gazed at Sheyan with a straightforward and honest look.

"The terms you mentioned; Brandy, whisky, vodka, champagne, sparkling wine...….there aren't such terms in the whole of Middle-Earth!"

Sheyan replied spitefully.

"Which one is your Uncle Sandvik? Oh, the one that wrapped his head? I can tell he must be a puritan, probably never encountered other fine drinks except ale and wine in his lifetime."

The young dwarf fumed.

"Don't you slander my Uncle Sandvik, he is the wisest amongst the caravan group."

Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and replied.

"Am I wrong? Young one, what if I can verify my words?"

The dwarf's simple mind couldn't process this after being served with such a question. The dwarf brandished his cumbersome but fierce-looking warmace, and looked as though he wanted to scratch his own head with it.

"Then tell me what you want."

Sheyan was satisfied with that answer and immediately wielded his 'Alcohol Master' title before prompting the confused dwarf.

"The One bestowed me this honored accolade for my drinking endeavors across middle-east. You shouldn't think this is false, heard of the great Seaman before aye?"

Segimli immediately shook his head listlessly while feeling embarrassed, and nodded again. Sheyan searched through the party storage and managed to locate an ordinary rum from the Caribbean Sea World. He then retrieved it and passed the bottle to Segimli.

"Mister Segimli you have learned a new truth in life. The words of foreigners may be false, but the drink swirling in your belly cannot lie."

"Oh, what a splendid saying!" The dwarf gulped down mouthfuls of rum and got excited from the alcohol coursing through his body. "Indeed, the drink swirling in my belly can't lie!"

Sheyan's eyes flashed and continued.

"Therefore, you must bring my friend and I into Rivendell."

"Surely!" The young Segimli wiped his beard and hiccuped.

"Maybe Uncle Wright won't admit you humans, but my father knows many caravan lords of Middle-Earth! The caravan lords favors the weapon masterpieces forged by us dwarves, and there will surely be several caravan groups outside Rivendell. My friend, your wish is easy to fulfill."

Meanwhile, Sheyan also noticed the other contestants moving into action as well. Some appeared zealous as though they had accepted a mission from Caravan lord Wright, or perhaps, their main mission was related to the caravan group.

However, Sheyan wasn't placing much emphasis on his main mission.

After travelling for another half an hour, the caravan group halted to rest atop a hill.

From here, one could already spectate the glorious beauty of Rivendell from afar. Layers of valleys complementing the vast sceneries of white stone and greenery shade.

Following that, the caravan would traverse through those valleys without resting until they arrived.

While gazing into the distant Rivendell, Sheyan noticed a contestant strolling over to converse with Reef. Reef didn't appear to say much but merely shook his head constantly.

When Sheyan walked over, that contestant was already speaking with a displeased countenance.

"Since you reject our kind intentions, then we shan't force it. Anyway, I heard you guys obtained a silver storyline grade magic staff?"

Sheyan interrupted.

"And so?"

That contestant answered with thick-skin.

"My party has a member that is coincidentally in need of a magic staff. I wish you will sell it yo us."

Sheyan chuckled and replied.

"Sell? No problem, as long as you guys can afford it."

That contestant replied.

"5,000 utility points. This is very generous already, you won't lose out at all."

Sheyan laughed heartily and bluntly scoffed.

"Scram!"

That contestant's expression immediately soured as he answered with a gloomy tone.

"Fine, very good. From now, even if you wish for us to buy, we will not."

At this moment, the situation crescendoed as four other contestants begun pressing in. They had actually been discretely forming a circle to wrap around Sheyan and Reef.

Moreover, that ex-party leader, Yerna, was amongst them and glared with a look of mockery.
