Chapter 80: 80: Cocktail To Top It Up


"If you won’t eat then you can just leave. No need to announce your annoying existence" Eden rolled his eyes at him.


"It seems like the wizard is truly jobless. That you’re even cooking now. How fascinating" He stared back at Eden.


"Yes. I’m indeed jobless. But at least it’s better than being you" Eden slapped back. Their cold eyes locked.


The Grand Marquis and Grand duke sat there quietly. They didn’t say anything and neither did they start eating.


They casually observed all that happened and the ongoing beef between Eden and the duke’s illegitimate son.


And while they beefed, Leo slowly took his utensils and took a bite. This stunned everyone. He took another and then another.


"Even the Grand Duke of Enor is having it?"


"Then it must be safe and good then"


Soon, Adrian joined too. Casually enjoying the meal as well.


They were all speechless.


"If they’re having it.. then we could give it a try maybe?"


And like that they all began digging into the meal one by one. And soon, everyone took a bit or two. Expect the duke’s illegitimate son.


He watched as they all dug in. Suddenly enjoying the meal they had said they wouldn’t eat.


Their expressions lit up in surprise as they stared at each other.


"What’s this...?"


"I don’t know but it tastes...good?"


"It’s actually good. How is that possible? I think this might be one of the best things I’ve tasted"


"I have to say. It’s indeed superb"


They were digging in and enjoying the pizza and Eden watched them with a smile. He felt proud.


"What’s this?" One asked. "I don’t think I’ve encountered such"


Eden smiled "It’s my speciality"


"From the wizard land or something?" The duke’s illegitimate son questioned. A mockery on his side.


Eden ignored him "It’s a unique recipe that you’ll never see anywhere. And I also got some wine to pair with it perfectly"


They were curious.


They couldn’t believe the meal they were bashing had become something they were all enjoying now.


While the maids went to get the drinks, One had asked Eden.


"Would you perhaps teach me how to make such? I would most certainly wish to make more of this and enjoy it?" One said .


Eden smiled "You can always send your maid over to learn from me if you wish. I’d gladly teach them"


"That would be great then"


The maids had soon arrived with the glasses of wine. But they all served empty glasses to them which left them confused.


"Huh? What now? Why is the glass empty?"


They began mumbling as Eden said.


"Don’t worry. I have it under control" He expressed as he signalled the maid to bring in a table and the large container. He kept it on the table.


They all watched, curious.


"What is he doing now?"


"I don’t know. Isn’t he supposed to just serve the drink?"


They shrugged.


Leo, Adrian, Lysander and Elvis watched Eden curiously. They didn’t know what he was about pulling at the moment.


Eden smiled as the maids brought in different drinks and held it while standing around Eden.


"What are you doing?" One asked.


"Ladies and gentlemen, today I shall present to you all a special drink therapy. One that you won’t find anywhere else. It’s called. Cocktail Pro"


"...."


Everyone blinked at each other.


"Cock what?"


"Tail?"


"Cock pro?"


"What’s that?"


"I don’t know. What does that have to do with drinking?"


They were curious.


Eden smiled as he continued "Don’t worry about anything and just enjoy the process. Because today I’ll be giving everyone a memorable drink of their lives"


He expressed as he took the first drink and poured it all in.


They watched as he took the second and third, pouring them all in and mixing them all up.


They stared curiously, wondering what he was doing. They had never seen such activity before. Especially as nobles, so it was rather intriguing.


"This is not a bar house or brothel. This is a palace and such nasty acts shouldn’t be condoned" The Duke’s illegitimate son pointed out, his chins up.


But no one paid attention to him. They didn’t support his words but rather stared curiously at what Eden was doing.


Eden smiled at him, outrightly mocking him.


The duke’s illegitimate son rolled his eyes while folding his arms, embarrassed.


They watched as Eden did the whole mixing and soon the cocktail was ready. Eden smiled at the result. He was used to this having worked at a bar.


He had done this a lot as part of his work. So this was like his second nature.


"It’s done" he smiled as the maids brought up the glass cups of the nobles and he filed them all up "Enjoy the feel of cocktails"


The glasses got to their tables and without wasting time, they began trying it. One by one, they all immediately drank it except Leo, Adrian, Lysander, Elvis and the Royalties.


As they drank, their eyes lit.


"This is ...crazy" one smiled


"I haven’t tasted anything like this before"


"It’s.. it’s amazing"


Soon, they were all done with their glasses and requested for more.


"Fill my cup!"


"Give me more!"


"I want more!"


The young noble men had suddenly turned hungry drunk while demanding for more.


The King and Queen casually stared in shock. They couldn’t believe what the traditional cultured dining was turning into.


But Eden felt good about it. The nostalgic feeling of working at a bar engulfed him as he enjoyed their satisfied reaction. For the first time, he actually did miss his job.


And as he stared at them enjoying the drink with a smile, the four male leads had their eyes on him


Prince Lysander smiled subconsciously as he stared at Eden. He didn’t notice his heart fluttering.


Crown prince Elvis casually had his eyes on Eden, trying to figure out the complex nature of this wizard who was supposed to be cruel and evil. But instead appeared to be the brightest person he had met.


Leo on the other hand stared at Eden as well, trying to figure out what he was probably planning behind those smiles and generous offer of a meal and a drink.


While Adrian on the other hand stared at Eden, not much thought running through his head. His eyes were just on his face. Subconsciously admiring the smile on those lips...
