Chương 44: Visiting

I read the report in front of me. Like I previously thought, Vodka became a popular drink in the northern region. It is so popular, and I need to increase the distillation machine. Lucky for me, Lucina is a dwarf. When I give her the blueprint of a distillation machine, she immediately makes it inside the blacksmith of my pocket dimension.

The vodka became the most sought product we sold to the other. Vodka is only sold in the northern region and is not yet exported to another country or continent. However, a few merchants who come from the east continent decide to buy a few Vodka bottles from the local trader.

While I permit to sell a few vodka bottles to the foreign merchant, I forbid anyone to sell more than three bottles of Vodka. There is no law about Item Monopoly in this world. With them only can taste the drink in here and as they become addicted to the drink, the demand will be higher, and with the supply is low, the price of the Vodka will become higher as well.

Because only the Lionheart family could make Vodka, I could monopolize the price and to whom I wanted to sell the drink.

Vodka becomes a booming accommodation in the northern region as not only can it make you drunk it also warms you up. There is also the grain that used to make the vodka contains a little bit of magic. This makes drinking vodka that we make is more delicious and more healthy….? The effect of the mana inside the drink makes overconsumption of vodka will never cause alcohol poisoning.

Thus, many of the workers on my farm will be given a cup of vodka every morning. When the rumor of the vodka warms your belly, many peasants will buy the vodka from the local tavern and keep it inside their house to drink it in the morning.

Of course, I give all the tavern an order to not sell the drink for takeout more than three cups worth of vodka. I also make a law that says if someone is found drunk when it is time for work, they will be punished and sent to my personal farm to do intense labor without getting paid.

When I make that law, I also upgrade my ward to enforce it in their brain to not get drunk at the time of work and only do it in their free time.

"Isaac…"

I snap from my thoughts when I hear Lucina's voice from behind my office.

"Come in."

As I see Lucina walk inside my office, I smile a little before saying.

"Hello, Lucina. Is there something I could do for you?"

"Nothing, dear husband. However, it is time to eat… You stay inside your office since the morning. Little Ginerva gets bored and demand Lady Eveline to take her to meet you."

"Really? Then I cannot make my little sister wait, can I?"

Lucina shakes her head with an amused expression before taking my hand, and we go to the dining room.

~Next Day~

"Lucina, do you want to come with me to the other world?"

"Really? Can I?"

"Of course. You are my dear wife, after all."

I chuckle a little when I see her blush.

"Then yes. I want to come with you to the other world."

"Come on."

I take her hand and open up the pocket dimension portal. We then walk inside the portal and continue our walk toward the mansion when we arrive in front of the Dimension Hopping, where I press the world that I already visited.

This is one of the functions of this room I am grateful for. This room let me go back to the world that I already visited. At first, I was afraid that I could not go back to the world I visited and only went back to the alternate universe of the said world I once visited.

Anyway, I select the Harry Potter world I previously visited. As I press it, the system asks me which time I want to come out of the portal.

Wait a minute. Does that mean the Harry Potter world is continuing going on as I stay in my world? I guess that makes sense. I thought that the Harry Potter universe would be frozen or something like that.

I decide to leave it as it is. I want to see how long time has passed in the Harry Potter universe. It has been more than two months since the last time I visited the Harry Potter world, if you did not count the time I spent inside the pocket dimension.

"Isaac? Is there a problem?"

I smile at Lucina, who is having a worried expression before saying.

"Nothing. Come on. I already set which world we will be visiting."

"Really? What kind of world is that?"

"Hmmm… That world is divided into two types of world."

"Huh?"

"One side of the world is filled with people that can use magic and control it to help them in their daily life."

"And the other?"

"The other side of the world is filled with mundane people or non-magical beings."

"So? They still have physical energy, right?"

"Sadly no. They don't have it."

"Then how can they survive?"

"By using their brain. They use their wit and intelligence to create a weapon and tool that help them to survive. From there, they continue to upgrade their tools to make their life easier."

"Oh~ Then what about the magician? Why did they not help the non-magical being?"

"They are called a wizard for the men or a witch for the women. As for helping… well, they don't want to do that. There is a dark time called the Witch Hunt time. As its name suggests, this is the time where many wizards and witches get hunted down by order of the local church and king."

"That is awful."

"Yes. Because of this event, many magical beings decide to hide and create a community called Wizarding World. They create a barrier that separates the world of Mundane people and the Wizarding world."

"I see."

"However, because of this separation, the people in the wizarding world, especially the noble, are called pure blood here, see the mundane people beneath them as they cannot use magic."

"They just like the people from the Tower of Magic, then."

"Really?"

"Yup~ I met a magician from the Tower of Magic once when he came to Dalagull to hunt some monster to harvest it for a potion ingredient. However, instead of acting like a guest, he acts like he is the owner of Dalagull and demands my father to give him the lord room for him to stay and serve a feast three times a day."

"I bet uncle Lomun is furious."

"Of course! He decided to kick out the magician from Dalagull, but that bastard decided to challenge my father in a duel. Let's say that there is a reason why magicians positioned themselves in the backline instead of in the frontline. Before he could cast his spell, my father already cut his left arm with his ax and then chop his head off."

"Heh. I will pay to see that fight."

After done talking with Lucina, I open up the Dimension Hopping room door and see a familiar kaleidoscope portal. I take Lucina's hand and take her inside the room.
