Versatile System Online-Chapter 174 Old Man Abraham’s And Alcohol

"What is it?" Old Man Abraham entered the dean's office. His wine glass was almost empty as he had sipped it all along the way.

"Have a seat," the dean said as he pushed the wine bottle forward and motioned the Old Man to pour more wine. Old Man Abraham did as asked and took a seat.

"Now, let's get to the topic. First of all, about the Nest Crystals. Since I didn't show them during the meeting, the Nest Crystals are ours. Now, we need to find a way to use them," The dean said.

"Before that, I would say that you are quite clever. To think that you would hide such an important resource from the commander-general himself," Old Man Abraham laughed.

"What resource?" The dean asked. His face turned innocent as if he didn't know of a thing in the world.

However, even with the innocent face; the dean's eyes shone a dangerous glint and served as a reminder for Old Man Abraham.

"Stupid jerk. Why did you even let him have some wine? You know how he is after drinking," Amanda muttered. Turning to the dean, she reprimanded him and took away the wine bottle. This way, neither of them would drink anymore while she herself would be able to drink to her heart's content. 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

As for the dean, he could only continue to look at the little wine left in his glass. Taking small sips to savor the taste to its fullest, the dean made do with what he had.

As for Old Man Abraham, he merely harrumphed and downed all the wine in his glass in one go.

"What are we doing with the nest crystals then?" Amanda asked with a satisfying smirk on her face.

"That's why I called you both. I am not certain of what we should do," the dean said.

Then, reaching a desk under his table; the dean took out a small cube and placed it in the middle of his desk. Tapping on top of the cube, the cube lit up as a holographic display was projected through it. 𝒇𝑟𝐞𝐞w𝐞𝑏𝙣𝑜vℯl.co𝑚

"What is this?" Old Man Abraham asked.

"You Old fool. You gave it to me just yesterday and now you are asking what it is. Amanda is right, you and alcohol aren't a good combination at all," The dean reprimanded in anger. Pissed off at the Old Man for his nonsensical behavior.

"Did I give it to you? Well, I don't seem to remember it," Old Man Abraham spoke innocently as if he didn't know a thing about the cube.

"Arghh," The dean groaned in anger. If not for the circumstances, the dean would have smashed the Old Man through the roof to make him come to his senses.

"Don't burn your blood on him. It's the alcohol that's doing it," Amanda tried to calm the dean down.

"Then use your fucking magic and cleanse him, Amanda. I can't continue without his help and for that, I need him to be sober," The dean almost shouted. With frustration visible on his face, it was clear that the dean was being tortured by the Old Man's non-serious attitude.

"Okay," Amanda nodded and waved her hand as a small magic circle was created in the air. The magic circle traveled to the old man and touched his forehead. Right after it touched the old man, the magic circle disappeared as clarity slowly returned to his eyes.

"Blerghh!" The Old Man suddenly vomited.

"For God's sake Amanda. I asked you to sober him up, not vomit," The dean shouted as he had finally lost it.

Then, he swung his hand as a gust of wind was produced and the nasty food vomited by the old man was converged into a ball. The dean swung his hand once more as the ball of undigested food was thrown into the washroom.

"Abraham, you good?" the dean asked in concern.

"Yes, I am. Thanks for the cleanse. Though, you could have had some mercy there. I almost vomited my guts out," Old Man Abraham said as he created a small blob of water and used it to clean his face and clothes.

Then, looking at the dean; he spoke, pan(da-n0vel.c)om

"Really sorry for all that. It was my fault that I touched alcohol while knowing that I couldn't control myself after I consume it," as the Old Man apologized, the dean nodded in satisfaction and spoke,

"Okay, so with all our issues resolved. Let's discuss the Nest Crystals and what to do with them," the dean pointed at the small cube projecting the holograph and glanced at Old Man Abraham.

"Yes. I remember giving it to you yesterday," Old Man Abraham spoke and admitted that he knew of the cube while the dean exhaled in relief.

After all, the cube was encrypted by a password and only Old Man Abraham knew of it. Therefore, if the Old Man hadn't remembered it, the dean would have had to go to great lengths to make the man remember everything.

"Please open it and show us what it is," The dean said.

"Okay," Old Man Abraham answered and took the cube in his hands. Tapping on top of the cube twice, a small four-digit lock screen appeared.

Seeing the lock screen appear, Old Man Abraham thought for a moment and then nonchalantly tapped on the numbers five, four, seven, and nine. As he did, the lock screen turned green and the cube opened up.

In the cube was a small memory device that the Old Man picked up and handed to the dean.

"What is that?" Amanda asked in curiosity.

"This is a memory device containing blueprints of the things we could build using the Nest Crystals. The blueprints vary from armor to artifacts and various formations. In short, it has many uses of the Nest Crystals recorded for us and all we have to do is choose a few that fit our criteria and then use our Nest Crystals in that way," The dean said as he thought of the various benefits he would get from this.

"Okay Prometheus, don't be too greedy. We only have six Nest Crystals and we won't be using them on ourselves. They are to be used for helping the people in the future," Seeing the dean's expression, Old Man Abraham understood what was going on in his head. Therefore, the Old Man interrupted the dean's thought and reminded him of his duty to the people.

Listening to the Old Man's words, the dean's expression returned to normal as he calmed down and pushed the greedy thoughts back into his mind.

"It's all because of his greedy mentor. While being greedy himself, that old fogey passed that bad habit to his own student," Amanda thought to herself as she shook her head in disappointment.
