Tavern in Another Dimension: Getting the Elf Queen Drunk at the Start

Chapter 34: Her Majesty the Queen VS Her Highness the Princess (3)

Hearing these words, Orina said confidently.

"It's very simple. In the conditions you mentioned just now, add two more. Every year, you will provide the elf warriors with a set of iron equipment, as well as other iron tools and magic tools. Finally, you will agree to let the entire elf race move to your city when we invade the Abyss."

Hearing these two additional conditions, Olivia was in disbelief. How could the elves dare to make such a big demand?

Orina ignored the shocked princess and continued to drink her tea, waiting for her to finish thinking.

After a long while, Olivia let out a heavy breath and said in a deep voice, "Forgive me for not agreeing to Your Majesty's two conditions. After all, I am just a princess!"

Hearing these words, Orina looked at her curiously. She did not expect that this young and proud princess in front of her had such high aspirations.

"Your Majesty, why don't you take a look at the things I brought over and complete this transaction first. We can slowly discuss the rest of the matter." Olivia thought for a while and decided to change the way they negotiated.

Naturally, Orina agreed.

Olivia brought a lot of things this time. The purpose was to exchange for the water from the Spring of Elves and the powder from the Tree of Life's branches.

The things she brought were mostly food and crops that were unique to the Oreste Empire. There were also some commonly used small items. There were even two large-scale magic tools.

After thinking for a while, Orina made an estimate of the items that could be exchanged for the past. However, she felt a little regretful that she did not bring any weapons that she wanted the most.

After she made her own estimate, even though Olivia felt that it was too little, she still agreed to this method of exchange.

"Then, regarding the alliance, does Your Majesty have any good ideas?" Olivia hoped to sign the contract as soon as possible this time.

"I still insist on the conditions just now. After all, it's you who needs our help. Otherwise, the current internal affairs of the Oreste Empire might not be able to withstand a large-scale attack from Roders." Orina said nonchalantly, her arrogant and indifferent appearance made her the princess very angry.

"And our request is in the future. If something really happens on the continent that's so severe that even the elves have to relocate their entire race, I believe that it's much better to stay together than to fight alone."

"As for weapons, I've never heard of anyone hiring outside help in a war and then requesting the outside help to pay for their own food."

Olivia did not know how to retort. She even felt that what the other party said made sense.

"However, your request for weapons is really too much. If we follow your request and give you all the weapons, we won't have any for our empire's soldiers. There's no need to ask the emperor about this. I can make the decision myself and reject it."

At this point in the negotiation, the scene fell into silence once again. Both sides had insisted on their own conditions and were unwilling to let go.

Stanton waited anxiously outside the door. He did not know if the negotiation inside was going smoothly...

No matter how mature Olivia was, she was only a young girl who just turned 16. She was entrusted with such a heavy responsibility. If she could not successfully complete the mission, her days back in the Imperial City would not be easy.

At this moment, Olivia suddenly remembered the wine that had been creating miracles for her along the way.

"If Her Majesty Orina is not satisfied with these conditions that I have given you, and I am unable to completely agree to your conditions..." the princess paused for a moment before continuing, "I have one more thing that is enough to be added as a condition for the transaction."

Orina was a little curious when she heard her words. To be brought up at such an important time, it proved that this thing had a very heavyweight in Olivia's eyes.

"Stanton, give me that," Olivia shouted at her Chief Knight standing outside the door.

Stanton heard the princess call him and thought that something had happened. In the end, he only brought what she requested.

After pushing open the door of the treehouse, Stanton walked in. After bowing to the queen, he looked at his princess with a puzzled expression. What was she asking him to bring out?

Veins were popping on Olivia's forehead. This stubborn knight of hers was really hopeless.

"Wine! I asked you to bring out the wine!" The princess could only say helplessly after waiting for a long time.

Stanton suddenly understood.

Olivia, who had asked him to bring out the high-level magic Lafite, had a proud look on her face. She even proudly stuck out her small chest.

Meanwhile, Orina's expression was very strange after seeing the wine bottle. She looked at Olivia with a strange look in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate this bottle of wine. Its effect is beyond your expectations. In our empire, it is an extremely precious item." The proud princess had been suppressed by the queen for so long so at this moment, with the help of the half bottle of high-level magic Lafite, she was finally able to hold her head up high.

"This bottle of wine is a bottle of magic wine. It has existed for at least 500 years and is called Lafite. The magic power contained within it is extremely large. With just a few sips of this wine, a high-level mage will be able to break through to become Archmage."

"It can also be effective for those who are at the level of a Grand Mage. The upper limit for the high-level magic wine is the peak of a Holy Sourcerer."

"Also, it's very convenient to store Lafite. If you open it, you won't be able to finish it in one go. If you re-seal it, you can continue to store it until the next time you drink it."

As Orina listened to the princess' incessant introduction of Lafite's use, she began to mutter in her heart. She instructed Alan before she left not to let anyone else know about the existence of his magic Lafite that was higher than his low-level one. How could he let the princess know about it??

"Your Majesty, other than this high-level bottle, there are also low-level and mid-level ones. The wine of different levels corresponds to the use of different levels of mages. If I agree to include Lafite in our transaction, will you agree to join our alliance?"

After Olivia finished speaking, the entire study fell into silence once again.

Orina was still wondering why Alan would tell Olivia about the high-level magic Lafite. She did not reply for a long time.

As the Queen remained silent for a longer time, the princess began to feel uneasy. She could not help but speak again.

"You must know that this magic Lafite does not have any side effects when used. As long as you can absorb it, you can drink as much as you want."

"Such a precious magic wine should be comparable to the Tree of Life for the elves, right? As long as the elves form an alliance with us, the elves can share this precious divine item with us. Isn't that good?"

Orina glanced at the princess. "Just like you said, this wine is so precious. How can you have enough for the elves?"

Seeing that she was interested, hope rose once again for the Oreste Empire.

"If we use this magic wine as a weapon, we can agree to provide as much low-level Lafite the elves need, but not the other two levels. After all, this magic wine is very precious and hard to come by!"

"Just the bottle in my hand alone will cost at least 5,000 gold coins to obtain. I should have the bottle of the high-level magic Lafite on the continent."
