"I went to install the equipment at the tavern opposite. I did what I promised two days ago. I drank three cups of tea and came back right after I was done. I was going to cook dinner for the children."
Before Irina could ask, Meg had already told her everything.
"That's it?" Irina looked at him with a half-smile.
"Yes, that's it." Meg nodded and sat down opposite Irina. He poured her a glass of water before changing the topic. "I have something important to tell you."
"Is it the devil?" Irina looked at Meg with a serious expression.
"It's not the devil. It's the Ancient Ones," Meg said in a hushed voice.
"The Ancient Ones? What's that? "Irina frowned.
"Last night, a lady suddenly barged in after the opening hours with a weird weapon. She claimed to be an observer of the Ancient Ones, and she could tell that I had interacted with the devil before. She thought that I might have already exchanged souls with the devil, and wanted to kill me," Mag said.
"Is she very strong?"
"She's not weaker than me." Meg nodded.
Irina's expression suddenly became serious. She knew Meg's strength very well. There was no one who could match him on the Norland Continent.
However, that woman's strength was not weaker than him.
"What exactly are the Ancient Ones?"
Mag deduced, "I'm guessing that it could be a civilization of a higher level. They have even more power and weapons, but they chose to hide, and didn't show themselves on the Norland Continent. We couldn't even find any traces of them in the ancient records."
"What happened after that?"
"Her target was the devil, and so was our target. In a way, we can be friends. Besides, she didn't have absolute confidence that she could walk out of the tavern safely after killing me, so we had a talk and established contact. "Mag took out the communication device that Xi had given him. It was a phone that could make voice calls.
Irina looked at the communication device for a while and said, "If their target is also the devil, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for us. It's better than us not being able to find Josh and the devil that escaped the seal."
"From this point of view, yes." Meg nodded and looked in the direction of the stairs. The two children should still be playing upstairs.
"There's another very important thing that I feel like I have to tell you."
Irina raised her hand and set up a soundproof cover.
"I'm sorry that I lied to you about Anne's background," Meg said apologetically.
"Heh, so you've been fooling around behind my back?" Irina raised her eyebrows, and the air seemed to have become a little chilly.
Mag quickly waved his hands. "No, no, no. It's not like that!"
"Then what is it?"
"Actually, Anne is the pure and kind personality of the devil that was struck by lightning when I sealed it outside Chaos City. That day, I almost lost myself in the devil's illusion. She was the one who guided me and saved my life," Meg explained.
"Then, Anne …"
"At that time, I found her to be like a newborn child. She was innocent and kind. I was worried that others would hurt her, so I took her away from the seal and later decided to adopt her. She's a kind child. You know that, "Meg said with a serious expression.
"Yes, Anne is a good child." Irina nodded her head. After pondering for a moment, she asked, "So that woman came yesterday and discovered Annie?"
Meg nodded. "Yes. The Ancients seem to have a unique way of detecting the devil's aura. She could tell that Anne was different at first glance and requested to take Anne back for research."
"I'm very glad that you kept her."
"Anne is like Amy. They're both our children. I can't let her take her away. So, I used my emotions and my sword to keep Anne. " Meg nodded, but he was a little worried. "But I feel that she won't give up so easily. After all, from a certain perspective, Anne is also a devil in their eyes. Even if she's a kind devil, it won't do."
Irina looked at Meg with a gentle gaze. She reached out to hold his hand. "I will stand with you to protect our child."
"Since there's a higher limit in this world, then I will become stronger than I am now. I won't let anyone threaten us anymore," Meg said with a serious expression.
…
Ai Fei was busy in the winery. Following Meg's method and her own research over the years, she couldn't wait to use the new equipment to make the first batch of Titan Wine.
Compared to the original complicated process of making Titan Wine and the difficult to control distillation equipment, Meg's improved process was much simpler. The distillation equipment was also much easier to use.
"Miss, Mr. Hades taught you how to make Titan Wine … Didn't he also learn how to make it?" Mara, who was tending the fire, looked up at Ai Fei and asked.
Ai Fei was surprised, but then she smiled and said, "Mr. Hades' Maotai isn't inferior to Titan Wine. With his intelligence, if he really wanted our Titan Wine, why would he design and build this winery for us?"
"Yes, Mr. Hades is smart and capable, but he's a little fast." Mara nodded.
"There's something wrong with you, girl." Ai Fei glanced at her.
Mara stuck out her tongue and pretended that she didn't say anything.
…
"Boss, are you going to the Wine Tasting Conference tomorrow? With the quality of Maotai and whiskey, you can definitely win the gold medal. "
"Yes, none of the gold medal wines in the past years can compare to Maotai. Each year is worse than the last."
"If you win the gold medal, you'll probably have to line up to drink in the future."
Today's customers came in and many asked Meg if he was going to attend the Wine Tasting Conference. It could be seen that the Wine Tasting Conference had a lot of influence in the circle of wine lovers.
Meg smiled and told them that Maotai was going to attend the Wine Tasting Conference. As for why whiskey wasn't going, it was to give other wines a chance.
Listen to this, is this still human language?
As Saipan Tavern gradually gained fame through word of mouth, it was only 121 points away from 1000 popularity.
Of course, with the Wine Tasting Conference tomorrow, this difference would become + 10086.
After sending off the last customer, Meg closed the tavern door and stretched.
Saipan Tavern was on the right track, and its popularity was gradually increasing. The current tavern space was a bit small, and he was considering whether to open up the shop next door and add more seats.
At this moment, Meg's expression suddenly froze, and he turned his head to look at the empty space above him.
Irina, who was counting money with Amy behind the counter, also stopped what she was doing and looked in the same direction as Meg.
The empty space outside the tavern twisted, and a huge figure appeared.
