After closing the door, Alan pulled Beelzebub to the arcade.

“After watching for a day, I believe that with your intelligence, you should already be very clear how to play this simple game.” Alan said in a strange tone.

“Of course, I understand it very well.”

Beelzebub had a disdainful look on his face. After saying that, he started to move his wrists. From the looks of it, he wanted to have a serious competition.

Alan was relaxed, completely disregarding him.

“Then let’s do it. You pick the character first. You know how to use your ultimate move, right?”

Ai Xiaohei saw that Alan wanted to teach Beelzebub a lesson. She trod on her elegant cat steps and cheerfully followed up.

Yupanki cleaned up the hall alone. Looking at Alan’s childish appearance, he could not help but find it a little funny.

Samael wanted to continue playing, but he was glared at by Alan. He originally wanted to get angry, but when he thought of Wayne and Orina, he instantly cowered.

“Watch my kick!”

“See where you can hide. Take this!”

“Hehe, you can’t hit, don’t even think about touching me!”

…

“Beelzebub Rising Dragon Fist! What are you doing!”

“Dodge it, it’s so simple. Why can’t you dodge it, what are you doing?”

…

In the empty tavern, Alan’s smug mockery and Samael’s exasperated cursing echoed in the air.

As expected, Beelzebub was suppressed by Alan. After a few rounds, he was unable to fight back at all. The elegance and confidence on his face gradually disappeared.

“Beelzebub, to think that you’re still the demon lord, how could you be so stupid!”

“Get out of my way. If it were me, I wouldn’t lose so badly like you, a pretentious fly…”

After watching Beelzebub lose five rounds in a row, Samael flew into a rage and shouted out Beelzebub’s real body.

Surprisingly, this time, Beelzebub did not fly into a rage. As if he did not hear Samael’s words, he lowered his head and sat on the chair.

Alan turned to look at him and asked in a seemingly casual manner.

“How is it? Is the arcade vulgar?”

Ai Xiaohei covered her mouth and snickered. She knew that Alan must have dragged Beelzebub here to take revenge because Beelzebub despised the game he liked.

Beelzebub’s face was ashen. He was indeed angry, but he did not seem to be convinced.

“He he he he… Vulgar, unbearably vulgar. How could I lose to a human in such a boring game? Again! Whether it is in reality or in the game, I will never lose to a human! I am the demon lord!”

Looking at his red eyes, Alan felt comfortable. He thought to himself, “You despise the game that I like. Tonight, I will let you, the so-called demon king, know the power of a human!”

That night, Alan rubbed his red hands. That night, Beelzebub’s eyes were red with anger.

In the morning, when Yupanki went downstairs, the person sitting next to the arcade had become Samael.

Alan was not in the lobby. He had probably gone upstairs to sleep.

Beelzebub had a dazed look on his face. He sat on the chair next to the arcade with a hopeless expression.

“Samael, what happened?”

When Samael’s game was over, Yupanki pointed behind him.

“Tch, that idiot lost the whole night and get depressed.”

There was 70% disdain and 30% coldness in his tone. Yupanki sighed. “This is the friendship of the Abyss…”

He realized that there were people who could be so stubborn. They didn’t win the whole night and refused to admit defeat. Was it so difficult to admit defeat?

He glanced at Beelzebub, who had lost his soul. He sighed and shook his head. He turned around and went to the backyard. Today was the day that Grimm sent the news back. The capital had not been peaceful for some time.

In order to punish Beelzebub for insulting the video game, Alan stayed up all night. He continuously crushed Beelzebub in the game until he did not want to fight anymore.

Finally, in the last game before dawn, Beelzebub finally admitted defeat. Alan also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this guy had improved too quickly. It had only been one night, and Beelzebub might turn the tables if they played two more rounds.

The next day, Alan woke up and it was already time for the tavern to open. After staying up all night, he felt as if his whole body was floating.

He had thought that he might as well take a day off and not open for business, but there was already a clamor downstairs.

“It’s not the time yet? Why is it so noisy…”

Alan sat on the bed and could not help but mutter.

…

Yupanki had been busy the whole morning. Not long after lunch, many people gathered outside the tavern.

He felt a little strange, so he went out to ask about the situation.

“My work has stopped for the time being. I have nothing to do, so I thought of coming to the tavern early, gathering with my friends, playing mahjong, and playing that arcade…”

The customer waiting at the door answered.

Yupanki was surprised when he heard that. Was this game called arcade really that fun?

Was it worth everyone lining up so early?

Since they knew that the customers were waiting at the door, and the tavern had been tidied up, they might as well open the door and let everyone in first.

Samael seemed to be nailed in front of the arcade. Since Yupanki saw him in the morning, he had been in this position and not moving a single step.

As the guests swarmed over, the small tavern instantly became lively. Those who lined up to play arcade game and those who waited to play mahjong each had their own preferences. Only a few people chose to simply sit and drink.

“Humans, you are too weak. You are no match for me!”

Samael’s proud voice suddenly sounded in the tavern.

Alan could hear what he said from upstairs. He was quite arrogant.

“Cut the crap. Even if you are the demon lord, you can’t beat me!”

The customers battled Samael in the game. They were really into it.

After Alan was done tidying up, he stood on the stairs and looked at the bustling scene of people coming and going in the hall below. He felt a sense of satisfaction.

This extraordinarily lively tavern was created by him with the help of many friends. It was also fortunate that he had the support of the system, which allowed him to successfully support a tavern that was on the verge of closing down.

He could live without worrying about food and drink, have cats and dogs, and have three or five good friends by his side. He was really lucky.

At this moment.

Orina walked into the door of the tavern. When she raised her head, she happened to meet Alan in the eyes on the stairs.

For some reason, the two of them instantly felt as if they had been electrocuted.

At that moment, she felt that the voices around her were getting further away from her. It was like only Alan and her were left in the tavern.

The elf lady smiled, and in an instant, the heavens and earth were in awe.

Alan racked his brain to recall the beautiful words that were used to describe women in his previous life, but he realized that none of them could match her smile.

Their gazes met, and a series of pink bubbles gradually rose in the air. It made people feel as if they were drunk, and their minds were a little dizzy…

“Hahaha… Next, send a powerful human to battle me. All of you are so weak. My victory is very meaningless!”

“Pop! Pop! Pop!” it was as if something had shattered in the air.

Alan and Orina suddenly recovered from the sweet atmosphere just now.

Yupanki glared at Samael in the crowd at the bar counter. He could not help but curse in his heart, “You blind fool!”

Orina walked quickly to the bar counter with a red face. After greeting Yupanki, she immediately lowered her head and fiddled with the piano case in her hand.

Alan sorted out his messy thoughts and quickly went downstairs.

Yupanki tactfully left the space at the bar counter for the two young men. He went to the side to look after Beelzebub.

Everyone in the Abyss had some weird habits. This Glutton Lord was usually a completely overconfident guy. However, if he suffered a setback, he would instantly dispirited and got depressed.

Alan came to the bar counter. Under the influence of the inexplicable atmosphere just now, neither of them spokes first.

He just quietly prepared drink for Orina as usual..
