Chapter 42 The First Secret Plan (6) In Britannia, gastronomy was merely a luxury for some eccentrics, not a matter of public interest. But when it came to alcohol, the story was different. In a harsh world without any decent entertainment, alcohol was one of the few pleasures and comforts in life, regardless of social status.

Before it even hit the ground, Ferda shot a magical arrow, blowing it apart. “Ugh!” Jed instinctively covered his face, worried that some pieces might land in his mouth.

Chapter 39 The Wizard’s Unspoken Rule Crackle! A sudden explosion of electricity burst in front of Yuren. A blue barrier shimmered before him—Magic Shield, a 4th-tier spell.

He was about to launch a mana orb at Ferda, but then he stopped. Just as the orb was about to fly, Ferda froze. What the man was holding wasn’t a weapon, but a piece of cloth. “The Emperor has betrayed the trust of his people!” The man’s sudden outburst was a protest. “He ignores the suffering of the people and continues to fill his own pockets while…
