Chapter 868 She Also Cooked Her Rice Using the Spring of Life…

What is this familiar throbbing pain in my heart? Firis sniffled as she thought to herself. It had been a rather disconcerting experience not to hear the princess’ scathing criticism over the past few days, but who would’ve thought that she’d encounter a little girl who could fill in that role instead? Even as she was saying such hurtful things, her bright blue eyes were completely clear and innocent, so Firis simply couldn’t bring herself to resent this little girl.

It was just like when she was with the princess; she was simply far too beautiful for anyone to stay mad at her for long.

On top of that, they both spoke in such a matter-of-fact manner as if they were merely stating facts rather than delivering malicious insults, and that only made it more difficult for Firis to be mad at them.

She resembles the princess so strongly; even their mannerisms and the way they talk are the same. I’m sure the princess was just like her as a child… Firis thought to herself, and the more she looked into Amy’s eyes, the fonder she grew of her.

She was suddenly beginning to really look forward to this job. Being able to interact with such an adorable little half-elf would surely make this job a lot more fun.

At this moment, Yabemiya and Sally also arrived, and the former strode into the restaurant first with a curious look in her eyes. “Do we have a new colleague?”

A wide smile then appeared on her face as she continued, “What a beautiful elf! I’m Miya; welcome to our restaurant.”

“I’m Babla. Welcome.” Babla was also appraising Firis with a curious look in her eyes, and there was an immediate connection between the two as they appeared to be around the same age.

Firis immediately became rather nervous at the sight of her new colleagues, but she then relaxed a little upon seeing Miya’s friendly smile, and she hurriedly replied, “I… I’m Firis, Thank you for the warm welcome.”

Firis! Sally’s foosteps faltered as she stared at Firis with a hint of bewilderment in her eyes. Why was Irina’s personal maid here?

Firis had also noticed Sally at this point, and she reflexively took a couple of steps backward.

“I’m Aisha. I’m responsible for clearing the tables and cleaning the restaurant. Welcome.” After walking in through the door, Sally had already recomposed herself, and she appraised Firis in a calm manner as if she had no idea who Firis was.

“Thank you.” Firis cast her eyes downward slightly. She didn’t know if Sally had actually failed to recognize her or was simply putting on an act, but she didn’t expose her for using a fake name.

A while back, High Priestess Helena had suggested a few candidates to take over the position of princess, and among those candidates, Sally was the most powerful as well as the one who everyone thought had the greatest chance of replacing Irina.

Now that Irina had been deposed as princess, the position was vacant, and barring any mishaps, there was a very good chance that Sally could become the new elven princess.

However, she was rumored to be cultivating in seclusion in the territory of the Brewster Family; what was she doing in Chaos City? And why had she become a restaurant waitress? This was simply incredible!

Mag cast a quick glance at Sally and Firis, and he could tell that these two had clearly recognized each other. However, he wasn’t overly concerned. By saving the elven captives from the Wind Forest, Sally was now in the same boat as Irina, so he didn’t have to worry about her plotting against Firis.

During this period of time in which he’d known Sally, she wasn’t very talkative, but she always charged to the forefront whenever any danger arose, so she was most definitely a trustworthy friend.

Furthermore, after running away from home and coming to Chaos City, Sally had distanced herself from the Wind Forest, and she might still be unaware of the drastic changes that had just taken place there.

Mag had bought some information prior to this, thereby learning that the elven race was already preparing to select a new princess directly after the incident in the Wind Forest a few days ago.

The elven queen was in seclusion, and Irina had been deposed, so it could be said that the elven race was now in its most vulnerable state in the past century. As such, they had to select a new princess for everyone to pin their hopes on, and Sally was naturally the most popular candidate.

“You can all chat and get to know one another; I’ll go cook up some lunch.” Mag placed Amy down onto the ground before making his way toward the kitchen.

“Big Sister Firis, you’re an elf; Big Sister Sally, you’re also an elf. Do you know each other?” Amy asked in a curious manner.

“No,” Sally replied with a shake of her head.

Firis glanced at Sally before also shaking her head as she said, “No.”

Amy was slightly disappointed to hear this, but a smile quickly reappeared as she said, “That’s alright, you two can get to know each other now.”

“Boss is super strict with the staff that he hires, so you must possess some kind of super awesome skill, right, Firis?” Yabemiya asked with a curious look in her eyes.

Everyone also turned to her with intrigued expressions upon hearing this. Everyone had their own unique skill set that allowed them to excel in different duties in the restaurant, and that was a perfect indication that Mag chose his staff based on their abilities rather than their looks.

“I only know how to cook a little…” Firis replied in a modest manner.

The three waitresses were all extremely beautiful and made others comfortable in their presence; that was a truly exceptional skill in her eyes.

“Wow, you can cook? That’s so awesome! We can’t help out Boss Mag at all, so he’s always having to do so many things by himself. If you can give him a hand, then that would be great!” Miya exclaimed in an excited voice.

Inside the kitchen, a smile appeared on Mag’s face as he listened to the conversation between the women. He really enjoyed this comfortable work atmosphere.

Miya’s warm and bubbly demeanor gradually made Firis feel a lot more relaxed, and she slowly became more talkative as they began to discuss a variety of topics.

Lunch was soon ready, and Mag carried everyone’s dishes onto the table. He had prepared a Yangzhou fried rice for Firis as he was sure that she would enjoy the flavor of the Spring of Life.

Thus, all six of them sat down around the table, and Firis stared at the alluring dishes before her with an awestruck expression on her face.

At the center of the table was a fish that had been placed in a long platter. It was virtually buried under sliced chili peppers, but its aroma wasn’t unbearably spicy as one would expect. Instead, it gave off a very captivating smell that made one salivate uncontrollably.

The aroma of the chicken soup was also extremely enchanting to her, and she could detect a special fragrance from the dish. This wasn’t an unfamiliar fragrance, as it belonged to a type of mushroom that could occasionally be found in the Wind Forest.

After being dried under the sun, these mushrooms would emit an alluring aroma that made them similar to a condiment. She had once used this dried mushroom to cook a soup, which she found to be very appetizing. She didn’t think that she’d be able to taste it here in conjunction with the chicken soup that Mag had made.

However, what attracted her attention the most was the portion of beautiful fried rice that had been placed before her. The grains of rice were covered in golden egg, and ingredients of all different colors were combined into one dish, yet all of them had been diced into rice-sized pieces.

She had been wondering why Mag insisted on chopping up some of the ingredients into such fine pieces, but her question had naturally been answered by this dish.

Everyone else had already dug in to their meals. Firis hesitated momentarily before also scooping a spoonful of fried rice into her mouth.

Oh! This is amazing! Firis’ eyes immediately lit up. The egg around the rice melted almost as soon as it entered her mouth, while the rice-sized pieces of winter bamboo shoot and peas were crunchy and refreshing. The grains of rice were also sweet and fragrant, forming a perfect combination with the soft ham, and she seemed to have also tasted a hint of shrimp in the dish. After swallowing her first mouthful of fried rice, a warm sensation spread through her entire body, and a delicious flavor lingered within her mouth.

Of course, the most important element of the dish was the faint fragrance lurking within the rice. She was 100% sure that this was the fragrance of the Spring of Life as she also cooked her rice using the Spring of Life…
