Julie picked up the glass and sipped the rainbow into her red lips.
There was a momentary daze in her eyes, and her charm seemed to have become even more enchanting.
After a long time, she sighed and said, "Li Wei, you really are a talented bartender. Not only did you recover the Desire of Pawning so quickly, but you also made its taste better than I expected …"
"According to my own style, I slightly modified the ratio of the ingredients …"
Chung Shen-soo smiled and recited a recipe. "This should be the original version, right?"
Angel and Alice could not hold it in any longer and said in unison, "Please give us a glass of Desire of Pawning too. Yes, we want both versions!"
"Of course."
Chung Shen-soo smiled and made four more glasses of rainbow.
Angel impatiently took a sip and was immediately conquered by its distinct and rich taste. "This is delicious. I want to drink this in the future."
Although Alice was also very moved, she still compared the two versions of Desire of Pawning and finally chose the new version made by Chung Shen-soo. "I think … although the old version is not bad, the new version has a gentler taste …"
"Thank you for the compliment."
Chung Shen-soo wiped his hands with a towel and looked at Julie with a smile. "So … what about my surprise?"
"Oh, oh!"
The people around them started to jeer.
Julie's face turned red. "I … I didn't expect you to restore it so quickly. Next time, next time."
"Tsk …"
Seeing that there was no excitement, the people could not help but leave in disappointment.
"I'm looking forward to it …"
Chung Shen-soo looked indifferent, but in his heart, he had a premonition that his prey was about to take the bait.
…
Julie walked out of the bar.
There seemed to be heavy footsteps coming from the dark street.
The other party blindly followed behind her.
Obviously, this was someone who wanted to commit a crime but did not dare to cause trouble in the Whisperer Bar. Therefore, he chose to follow her.
Alcohol, darkness, beauty … these were all hotbeds to lure people to commit crimes.
At this moment, Julie could almost hear the other party's heavy breathing and smell the disgusting stench.
"Another ignorant and insignificant worm …"
She sighed and suddenly turned around.
It was a small alley without any street lights, and the surroundings were quiet and dark.
A drunkard holding a bottle of wine appeared in front of her. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at her beautiful face with an intoxicated look.
"I … I have money!"
The drunkard took out a few notes. "Name a price … Don't force me, don't force me …"
Julie looked as if she had seen a disgusting maggot. She frowned and suddenly chanted a few complicated and awkward incantations.
In the darkness, a few wriggling tentacles seemed to appear.
They scuttled around, binding the man.
"A nameless technique … Although it is nameless, I still gave it a name — Dark Binding!"
Julie took two steps forward and gracefully walked in front of the man. She stretched out her palm and stroked his face. "I've already given you a chance. Why do you still want to embrace the darkness?"
The man's drunkenness had disappeared without a trace. His eyes were filled with fear, and his mouth was trembling as if he was scared out of his wits. He begged for mercy again and again, "Forgive me … Forgive me …"
"I will not forgive a man who tried to hurt me …"
Julie's expression gradually turned cold. An inexplicable incantation bloomed on her palm.
"Flesh Dissolution … Although the existence that I believe in only used it as a prelude to a ritual, a method to deal with sacrifices, I found that using it to attack and deal with corpses is a very good method …"
Under Julie's palm, the man's skin quickly decayed, revealing the muscles and bones behind …
Everything was decaying. Piece after piece of clothing fell to the ground, soaking in a circle of disgusting mucus.
Tomorrow, the cleaners would definitely complain that someone had left such a disgusting puddle on the ground, but they would not know that it had once represented a living person.
After dealing with these small matters, Julie returned to the entrance of a bookstore.
The old signboard had the words "Traceless Bookstore" written on it. Next to it was a small blackboard that displayed new books and popular bestsellers.
Julie took out her key and opened the door of the bookstore. She walked to the second floor and lit up the gas lamp.
The orange-yellow light shone on the wall, and suddenly two black figures were reflected in it.
"Julie, you're late."
A low and hoarse voice complained.
"Even though I'm practicing the Nameless Technique, I still need recreation, rest, and entertainment … This is also very important to maintain our humanity and rationality."
Julie replied disapprovingly, "Also … in the bar, there was an unexpected gain."
"An unexpected gain?"
The other black figure asked.
"Yes, I found a genius bartender today. Did you know, he only tried a few times and he restored 'Desire to Pawn'!"
Julie's eyes lit up slightly. "At the next gathering, I want to recommend him to be one of us."
"This needs to be investigated first. You know, the people from the Special Affairs Bureau have been watching us …" The black figure sighed. "But 'Desire to Pawn'? When 'Doctor' first completed it, it took him a full half a month, right? Although it's just an ordinary cocktail, you can see the bartender's skills from it … "
"That's right. Since 'Doctor' died, we've lost him, which has made it very inconvenient … But we haven't been able to find a reliable replacement."
Julie smiled. "I'm thinking now, why don't we train one ourselves?"
"Interesting idea. At least we can rule out that he's not an undercover agent of the Special Affairs Bureau, and newcomers are easier to control …"
The black figure laughed. "When the time comes, I'll vote for you."
"Please rest assured, I'm optimistic about that person's talent. It's only a matter of time before he becomes one of us. You don't know … He already has signs of spirituality overflowing …"
Julie couldn't wait to say. "Also … I'll only give him a chance. As for whether he can enter, it's entirely up to him … Hehe, he's also the owner of an underground bar. He's very rich and can bring a lot of support to our gathering."
"After all, practicing the Nameless Technique requires a lot of money."
At the mention of this topic, both of them were silent.
Even the people of the mysterious world didn't live in the air. Clothing, food, housing, and transportation, as well as various materials needed for experiments and rituals, all required a lot of money to purchase!
Even people who became Extraordinaires still lived in poverty. Although it wasn't everywhere, it did exist.
