Chapter 583 The Feast
"You shouldn't have been gone so long, you know?" Elegan asked while looking into Wain's eyes.
"Well, I had urgent business. There's a lot of important things going on outside the Voids, so I had no right to miss them." Wain muttered before lifting his head.
Little shards of ice as though crumbs sprinkled from the tips of his hair as he rose and shook off the dust.
"So much has changed around here! I so want to show you all this!" Elegan exclaimed with a happy smile on his face.
"Of course. I'm interested in that, too." Wain nodded.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
Suddenly the ground trembled as someone's angry voice echoed to them, "What the fuck! What are you little bastards doing here!"
The next moment several monsters flew out of one cave, like projectiles as though someone had thrown them with all his might.
Frigus reacted quickly as he caught two snow wolves with three ice turtles and set them on the ground.
Outside ran a Skeleton in a long white robe and a massive staff with a blood red ruby on top.
"Elegan! What the hell is going on here?! I told you not to bother me! I was conducting an important experiment, but suddenly all the monsters went crazy! This is some kind of mess! I'm going to complain!" Sarras shouted with an angry look.
"Complain? To whom?" Wain said with a sly smile on his face.
"To Wain, of course, when he finally decides to come here!" Sarras exclaimed before noticing whoever he was responding to.
"What... You're back?" Sarras muttered with a dazed look.
"Yeah. Are you going to complain verbally, or shall I write it down?" Wain asked as he shook his hand.
"Huh, now I see why everyone's headed this way."
"You're no exception." Frigus muttered In a serious voice.
"Damn, Frigus, do you always have to be so serious? Even though I have no skin, I can still feel the creeps going through me. It's not normal, you know." Sarras muttered while waving his staff in a disgruntled manner.
"Well, well, Sarras is as noisy as ever." A relaxed voice rang out behind them.
Everyone turned around and saw a Dark Elf with long purple hair walking forward with a half-empty bottle of wine.
"Reto... I think I might come back here in a hundred years, but even then, you won't stop drinking." Wain muttered as he smiled.
"A hundred years? I certainly won't stop doing it even if a thousand years pass!" Reto uttered and took a sip, "Okay, I think your return is a great excuse to make a feast! For all the inhabitants of this Void!"
"A feast? Pfft, you're like children. I'm not going to do this nonsense. I'm going back to my lab." Sarras uttered as he folded his arms in front of him.
Reto smirked, walked over to Sarras, and said, "I knew this day would come, and I knew you would refuse because you're a pest, so especially for you, my bony friend, I prepared chocolates that are as spicy as chili peppers and salted caramel inside. We both know you can't refuse it."
Sarras turned away as though Reto's words meant nothing to him. After a few seconds, he turned around and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go, damn it! If it's necessary, we can even empty our supplies! Today is a very important day!"
"Damn... And he's the one who said we were kids?" Wain muttered with a mocking look.
"I agree. This is totally unacceptable for one of the four heads of territories." Frigus muttered before heading into the woods.
"Don't worry. We'll have an excellent feast! Not only are we full of a variety of food and drink, we also have many potions that Lui Bu and Edena have made!" Elegan exclaimed as he headed for Frigus.
'Huh, you've assembled quite the party. I can't wait to see your alchemists. How many are there?' Gladius asked in a curious manner.
'Only two. Lui Bu and Edena, they are Axalt and Construct. They may have helpers, but they are the only ones with the right talent.' Wain internally mouthed with a confident look and stepped forward.
'Construct and Axalt, it's a great combination. They complement each other. Good choice.
...
Elegan was in charge of most things in Void, so he also took charge of preparing the feast. In just ten minutes, hundreds of monsters came into the forest that brought with them carts full of fruit, vegetables, berries, and meat.
The medium-sized monsters quickly set about cooking, so in ten minutes, most of the table was filled with various delicacies that small monsters like goblins put up.
A huge, wooden table was in the middle of the woods, right next to a stone barrel from which the stream of wine flowed, so they had an unlimited supply of alcohol, although only Reto could drink this wine without consequences.
"All right! It's time to begin!" Sarras exclaimed as he reached for his favorite chocolates.
"Freeze." Wain uttered with a serious look.
"What? Why?" Sarras asked while in confusion.
"Not everyone's here yet, be patient. We've waited long enough, so we can wait some more." Frigus said.
"Hey! Sorry to keep you waiting." Lui Bu uttered while waving as he came out from behind the trees.
Next to him was Edena. She looked confident and cold as always, but she couldn't hide her joy at the sight of Wain.
"Great. You're finally here." Wain said as he pushed two chairs away from the table, "I have one present for you, but first a feast!"
"Great! I had a feeling something good was going to happen today. Edena, isn't it wonderful?" Lui Bu asked with a happy look before sitting down at the table.
"Yeah. We are finally all together. What's more, this is the first time we are sitting at the same table." Edena muttered as a blush appeared on her cheeks.
"Can we begin now?" Sarras muttered in a disgruntled manner while folding his hands in front of him.
"Sure. This day is just for us."
