Chapter 122: Elliots New flame! Enchanted! (1/2)

”Gorgeous lady, you are truly well-spoken,” Elliot said while beaming towards her. He couldn't help it. He was attracted to her, not only because she was cute but also because out of all the people here, she stepped up to help him.

As this was his first time experiencing how it feels like to be helped by another and the lady who saved him was also cute, he had taken a liking to her.

His remarks made her smile, but he was able to relish that moment for only a second because she raised her hand and hid her smile with the long sleeves of her blue robes with cloudy patterns, appearing extremely graceful.

”Pretty boy, save those words for a young and naive girl. I am too old to fall for such flowery words. You won't be able to charm me, no matter what you utter using your silver tongue.”

Able to tell that he was smitten with her by the look on his face, Lady Florence Love, a powerful lord of magic as well as a connoisseur of wine, said those words to let him know that he is too young for her and he should give up on any idea of chasing after her skirt.

”I honestly wasn't lying. I meant what I had said. That, I swear on my life. I am extremely thankful for your help, and I say in all honesty that you're the loveliest woman I have ever seen in my life,” Elliot said as he raised his head to look her in the eyes and show her his honesty, and she was able to tell how serious he was towards her through the glow in his bright eyes.

Florence Love's heart fluttered in glee, and the tips of her ears turned red, one hidden by her hair and the other exposed for Elliot to witness. She blushed! Of course, she would after a young man praised her beauty with an honest and sincere look on his face. In the end, she was just a woman, say a few words to lift her mood, and she would come to like you.

”Pretty boy, stop flirting with me,” Florence said before she turned around to hide the blush on her face and cleared her throat to suppress her embarrassment. ”If you truly want to thank me, then get me a high-quality wine.”

”Wine? Do you like wine?” Elliot asked.

”Yes, I do,” replied Florence with a deeply intoxicated look on her face. ”That's the only joy in my life. If someone gives me the best wine of my life, then I would give him myself.”

Now that he has found out that she loves wine the most and she would marry anyone who can give her the best wine, Elliot decided to search for the ones she had never tasted before by himself and let her taste them so that he would be able to make her happy and win her heart over time.

”I promise to give you a wine you've never tasted before if I find any in this settlement,” Elliot said with an adamant look on his face, expressing that he is intent on repaying her for helping him avert the crisis.

”I don't expect you to be true to your words, but if you really get one for me to drink it, I will give you an appropriate reward,” Florence said as she moved to go away.

She had barely taken three steps before Elliot suddenly said, ”Can you tell me your name?

After turning around to look at him, she said with a smile, ”Florence.”
