Chapter 190 War once again 6 (1/2)

Mars made his way through the busy streets of Green river and soon made his way to Terry's building, on the outside it looked a little different than his building but not that different, but when Mars steeped into the building he felt a difference from his, there was a sort of uncertainty in the air

'theses people feel... on edge'

a little confused about the atmosphere inside the building Mars began climbing up further in the building while visiting the shops he felt interesting, on his way up he found a spirits shop and walked inside to take a look

”welcome”

Mars greeted the employee with a smile

”can I help you with finding something?”

”hmm... in that case do you have any mellow and sweet rum?”

half an hour later a slightly tipsy Mars walked out of the shop with a paper bag filled with clear glass bottles filled with all kind of spirits, he had revived way to many free samples and as a result ended up buying whatever he found good leading to the current result

'hmm... I hope the girls like spirits or else I'll have to work though all theses bottles by myself'

soon Mars remembered his current goal in visiting this building and made his way up to the entrance to the penthouse and rung the bell, after he had waited for a few minutes he picked up footsteps and soon the door was opened by a female elver Mars didn't know, she clearly didn't know Mars either cause she gave a slight frown when she saw him and smelled him

”can I help you with anything?”

Mars gave a nod

”yes I'm here to visit Terry”

the elver narrowed her eyes before she spoke again

”wait here while I confirm with master Terry, who should I say you are?”

”just tell him Mars is here to visit”

as soon as Mars finished talking the elver shut the door in his face and walked away from the door, Mars felt his eyelid twitch slightly as he held down his rage and urge to kick in the door

'she know I'm a guest of Terry's so why didn't she let me in?'

Mars of course didn't know he smelled terribly of alcohol, that in combination with his casual clothes and him being a non-elver had given the elver a horrible first impression of him, Mars gave a sigh as he let go of his rage by imagining the elver getting hit by a truck and sent to another world and sat down leaning against the wall next to the door and waited, about half an hour later Mars once again picked up footsteps walking slightly fast towards the front door and stood up again

'she better let me in this time...'

Mars stood and waited in front of the door until it got opened again by the same elver, she still had an indifferent look on her face but Mars could tell she was slightly panicked

”please come in sir Mars”

”sure...”

Mars walked in and without waiting for the elver to lead him he walked towards the living room

”please wait sir Mars”

”don't worry, I know my way around this kind of penthouse”

”eh..?”

Mars turned around and gave a smile as he pointed out of a nearby window

”you see I own that building over there”

the elver followed Mars' finger and saw his building in the distance and slightly paled, at this point she knew she had fucked up by shutting the door in Mars' face but before she had a chance to apologize Mars had walked onward further into the penthouse leaving the elver to slightly run to catch up with him, of course, Mars didn't know his way around the penthouse like he said he did, he simply followed the sounds of conversation from further in the penthouse and soon he opened the door to the living room and became the center of focus for about 20 elvers, Mars ignored their puzzled gazes and looked over at Terry and raised his paper bag

”Terry I brought you some housewarming gifts”

completely ignoring the air in the room Mars walked in and sat down on the couch before he pulled a bottle of rum out of the paper bag and cocked open the bottle before he took a swig straight from the bottle before he patted the spot beside him and called out to Terry

”come sit down little brother you have to try this”

Terry gave a sigh, he knew that when Mars got like this one should follow orders and quickly if one wanted to keep all their teeth, of course, that might be a little much but you get the point, anyway Terry quickly fetched two glasses and sat down next to Mars as Mars pureed them both half a glass of strong rum and then proceeded to down it in one go

”ah... that's the stuff”

”come on Mars you are supposed to enjoy it slowly”
