Yes, the sweetness.
The characteristic of Celestial Mountain Water is its extre purity.
The characteristic of hot spring dew is its softness, and the water is very gentle.
The drinking water from Wildfire Territory provided by Andrew, however, seems to have... warmth.
The warmth of a human.
The warmth of life.
Vaguely, it seems to coincide with the "warm" of Warm Fire Comrce Association.
And the reason, Falk thinks, seems to be that this water contains a subtle, almost imperceptible "sweet" taste not found in any of the top-tier drinking waters known, including any from the Fla Realm!
"So, the na of this water is—?"
Falk stared into Andrew's eyes.
In this Fla Realm, any top-tier drinking water must have its own na.
It's not just a comrcial brand.
It's more of a form of respect.
If top-tier drinking water doesn't have its dedicated na, it's simply disrespectful!
Barbara had already explained this to Andrew, suggesting he think ahead and na this drinking water produced by Wildfire Territory.
So, Andrew was well-prepared for Falk's question.
Watching Falk, Leia, and even Havier looking at him,
Andrew, a bit embarrassed but also sowhat proud, announced the na he had decided to "borrow" from his pre-transmigration world to na the drinking water from the Lake of the Ocean in the Fla Realm:
"Nongfu Spring. This water is called Nongfu Spring."
When he said this na, to be honest, Andrew felt a bit embarrassed inside.
Others might plagiarize ancient poetry, and that's fine, since ancient people wouldn't jump out to question any copyright issues.
If he rembers correctly, after a certain number of years, using ancient poetry and similar works doesn't count as infringent... Andrew wasn't entirely clear.
But the Nongfu Spring brand is a real, modern, dostic hit brand!
So when Andrew said the na "Nongfu Spring," his legs trembled involuntarily, as if a copyright enforcent officer from his previous world would cross dinsions the next mont to notify him that he couldn't use soone else's trademark!
But at the sa ti, the anxiety and doubt Andrew harbored about whether the water from the Lake of the Ocean was top-tier had finally been put to rest.
"Oh, I should trust Barbara more. She said our Wildfire Territory's water is absolutely fine, so it's fine. I should really trust her judgnt more!"
Andrew thought to himself.
Another thing that excited and invigorated Andrew was Warm Fire Comrce Association's attitude.
Not only did Falk, Leia, and others have a favorable opinion after drinking Nongfu Spring,
but also Falk's willingness to discuss the first business cooperation so quickly represented Warm Fire Comrce Association.
At this mont, Andrew was yet to know that Warm Fire Comrce Association actually had a secret plan called the "Fire Creation Plan."
What was certain was that Warm Fire Comrce Association must have sothing like his Fire Extinguishing Upgrade thod!
Otherwise, it would be unexplainable that they would imdiately seek business deals as soon as the Twin Flas battle ended.
"Simply put, for Warm Fire Comrce Association, doing business itself might be a way to beco stronger!
It's about gathering strength for the next Twin Flas battle, preparing in advance!"
Andrew felt enlightened, "And I—with my Fire Extinguishing Upgrade thod—am the sa!"
This confird that he and Warm Fire Comrce Association shared a fundantal basis for cooperation.
But he harbored another question: Do Warm Fire Comrce Association and Water Mages have special relations?
"Hahaha!"
Havier suddenly burst into laughter, "What? You said the na of this water is Nongfu Spring?! My god, such great water nad with a word like 'Nongfu'? And... is there a mountain spring in this desert? Where's the 'spring'? Do you even know how to na things?!"
He acknowledged the quality of the water.
But he was very dissatisfied with the na!
"Such quality water, but it's called Nongfu Spring. Why not call it 'Commoner's Holy Water'?!"
Havier looked angrily at Andrew.
He finally understood why he felt increasingly uncomfortable since coming to the Wildfire Territory.
Because this Wildfire Territory exuded a strange atmosphere—
Why, as a Crimson Knight of Warm Fire Comrce Association, when walking through the territory, do the commoners not bow and greet warmly?
Why am I sitting equally in this reception room with a lord of so insignificant territory?
Why does such quality water have such a ridiculous na like Nongfu Spring?!
But then Andrew replied, "Commoner's Holy Water? That's a very nice na!"
Havier: "..."
He snorted heavily, put the water back on the table, and stared fiercely at Andrew, "What's nice about it? I ask you, where can you see a commoner, a peasant, drinking such top-tier water?!"
"Here." Andrew's face turned cold, "Everyone in Wildfire Territory drinks it."
"This..."
Havier's face froze, turning bright red.
Because he realized he couldn't refute it!
The fact is: everyone in Wildfire Territory truly drinks this... Nongfu Spring!
"Moreover, do you have so prejudice against farrs or commoners? I thought there was a basic equality between people, not idolizing soone because they're a mage, nor looking down on soone because they're a farr or a commoner—this should be a fundantal consensus. Only the Magic Guild folks engage in status hierarchies or nonsense like that, don't they?"
Andrew had always been polite and courteous.
Havier had displayed obvious disrespect several tis, and Andrew tolerated it because of Barbara or Warm Fire Comrce Association.
But now, it was truly intolerable.
"Alright, Havier!" Falk's brows furrowed, his voice stern and authoritative.
Warm Fire Comrce Association had always been friendly to commoners, that's true.
However, within the association, there was still a faction that leaned towards the ideas of the Magic Guild.
Falk was sowhat surprised by the young lord's respect for commoners.
This Fla Realm, after all, was different from Andrew's world before transmigration.
Many things that were taken for granted in modern civilization were sowhat advanced here.
Even in Warm Fire Comrce Association, those most friendly to commoners, like Falk or previously Barbara, still lacked real amiability. Because deep down, once soone beca a mage, a Crimson Knight, they no longer considered themselves ordinary.
Andrew was different.
Andrew always believed that whether a professional or an ordinary person, as long as soone worked, they were glorious.
It wasn't that Andrew had never left the "citizens of Wildfire Territory," but rather, the further he walked down the path of the Magic Lord, the more he felt himself not above everyone, but below them.
Because only by being lower than everyone else, he would be willing to serve all, and in turn, everyone would be willing to co to Wildfire Territory!
