Everyone was speechless as they looked up at the row of words at the top.

This Mamy Restaurant had dominated the top spot on all the rankings from the categorized rankings to the overall rankings.

Yes, dominated the rankings!

It dominated the rankings mercilessly!

It did not even leave a single chance for the other restaurants in the categorized rankings.

“Mamy Restaurant is incredible! Boss Mag is dope!” Harrison opened his mouth wide in shock.

“This is really… an all-kill.” Gjerj also nodded with the same shocked look on his face.

To them, these rankings were completely believable because they tried all the dishes on the rankings for themselves. It was not unreasonable that Mamy restaurant dominated the rankings. It really deserved it.

However, with a ranking like this published, being the top on every ranking, one would still be shocked even if it was expected.

“Big Brother, what’s the name of the restaurant that we’re going to challenge today?” Eugene jabbed Fabian with his elbow and swallowed.

“Mamy… Restaurant.” Fabian also swallowed. He could barely squeeze the words out from his throat.

“Those two words?” Eugene asked as he pointed at the name sitting at the top spot.

“If there isn’t another restaurant with the same name in Aden Square, I guess that’s it…” Fabian nodded. He felt a little dazed.

What was going on?

They were here for the challenge today, but before they even reached the place, they already saw the name of the restaurant that they were going to challenge dominate the Delicious Cuisine Rankings.

It was placed the top on all six rankings.

If they were to put the rankings together and look at them, it would be like looking at Mamy Restaurant’s menu!

This result made many feel very uncomfortable.

Other than Eugene and Fabian, there were also many restaurant owners that were looking forward to the results and their customers who had high expectations.

“Did this Mamy Restaurant sponsor the Delicious Cuisine Rankings? Why is it first place on all the rankings?”

“Exactly, are they fooling around? Even if they were bribed, they can’t go overboard with it, can they?”

“I was quite expectant initially, but now I just feel that the Delicious Cuisine Rankings had been reduced into a money-making tool completely. It’s not worth looking at.”

When the crowd came back to their senses, there were many who started voicing out their anger. They felt as though they had been toyed with.

President Robert is a very courageous man indeed. I like him. Mag looked at the words “Mamy Restaurant” shining brightly on the ranking and smiled radiantly.

He did not take those salty comments to heart, because the system had already begun calculating the rewards for completing the mission successfully. That was what he should care about.

“Congratulations, Host. You have completed the mission of dominating all six rankings and have once again raised the fame of Mamy Restaurant to become one of the most famous restaurants in Chaos City!

“Mission reward: A chance at the God of Cookery upgrade wheel had been released. The host can choose to use or keep it. You will be able to redeem a specific recipe after you have accumulated three chances.”

The voice of the system sounded as fireworks exploded.

“I’ll keep it first and decide when I get back,” Mag said casually in a good mood. He pulled Gina out of the crowd and walked toward the restaurant.

As a pragmatist, since he had completed the mission of dominating the rankings successfully, there was no need to go on listening to those indignant voices. What was important was to return to prepare the ingredients for their afternoon opening hours.

Of course, if he had the time, Mag would definitely stay on for a while longer to listen to them.

After all, that scenario would make anyone happy.

The release of the new Delicious Cuisine Rankings had already garnered a lot of attention, so the terrifying feat of being able to dominate the six rankings very quickly caused quite a commotion in Chaos City.

The rankings were initially just a grand occasion amongst the chowhounds, but because of the over-the-top dominance of the rankings, this matter had successfully become entertainment for all.

In an instant, there was an uproar with regards to theories on how Mamy Restaurant dominated the Delicious Cuisine Rankings as though someone really saw the owner of Mamy Restaurant carrying a suitcase of money and stuffing it to the president of the Food Association. This made the onlookers have a negative perception of Mamy Restaurant.

In response to that, the people who had been to Mamy Restaurant were naturally indignant. They argued back and managed not to let the comments lean to one side.

On top of that, the news of Mamy Restaurant’s owner having once been crowned the best chef of the banquet by the king of the Roth Empire, and that he had also won the chef of Ducas Restaurant in a dual spread like wildfire. The direction of discussions started taking a turn.

In the Food Association building, the employees all looked nervous, rushing around everywhere they went, and even had to be aware of the weird things that people threw in.

The vice president rushed into the president’s office anxiously. Facing Robert, who was sipping his tea leisurely, he said, “President, after the rankings were published, this is already the 10th rotten egg that was thrown into the association building. Now, word that we have accepted Mamy Restaurant’s bribe is spreading around, saying that our ranking was all to make money and that there was no credibility. What should we do?”

“Don’t be anxious. Isn’t this situation within our expectations?” Robert said with a smile. He picked up the teapot, poured some tea into it, and passed it to the vice president.

The vice president received the teacup and finished the tea in one gulp before sighing heavily and saying, “How would I know that this would cause such a huge commotion? Almost the entire Chaos City is spreading the news that we have received bribes, but when did we even see the bribes? There was not even a copper coin. If this continues spreading, I reckon the city lord would straighten us up again.”

“Don’t worry. The ones who judged for the rankings are all famous critics. All we did was organize the results into a ranking. If these rankings aren’t even credible, then there is no need for the food association to exist anymore. It would be better for us to close down.”

Robert put his teacup down. He stood up and walked to the window to look out at the restaurant owners inciting the crowd to create trouble outside.

He let out a mocking smile, and said, “These fellows are already used to buying their ranks, so they think that other people would do the same. They just don’t know how to put their time and effort into coming out with new dishes and improving their recipes instead. Let them be. One day, people will see for themselves whether the ranking is credible or not. What we need to do is to stand by our values and never give in.”

“Alright, I will tell them to be more careful.” The vice president looked at Robert with an even more resolute gaze. He put his teacup down and turned to walk out quickly.

…

“There are so many customers… Are they all lining up to beat the boss up?”

Eugene was a little shocked when he saw the long line outside Mamy Restaurant.
