Chapter 2407: Erm… You Weren’t Asleep Last Night?

The first customer that the restaurant welcomed early that morning was Michael.

The bell rang as soon as Mag went downstairs.

“What brings the city lord here so early? The restaurant isn’t open for business yet,” Mag said as he opened the door smilingly.

“Boss Mag should know why I am here so early in the morning.” Michael was also looking at Mag smilingly. “Why don’t you invite me in?”

“Please come in.” Mag stepped to the side and he closed the door after Michael came in.

!!

Michael got straight to the point and asked Mag, “I think Boss Mag must have heard about what happened at the elves’ forest. I wonder what you think about it?”

Mag knew that Michael had already guessed his identity, but he was a clever man and didn’t want to expose him. Hence, they all continued to put on a show.

“Currently, I have no idea yet, but it should have to do with the Great Old Ones,” Mag said.

Mag wasn’t prepared to let someone else know about Underground City. After all, Mag was waiting for the attitude of the person behind Xi before things turned ugly.

There couldn’t only be one kind of voice in this world.

They deliberately cut off the two worlds’ interaction and hid Underground City. They controlled and arrested the trespassers, which meant their leader deliberately didn’t want the two worlds to collide and interact.

“The deaths of the elven queen and Helena were a huge shock to all the races, but we know nothing about our opponent.” Michael looked at Mag. “If it wasn’t a Great Old One, who else has such powerful strength?”

“Perhaps, some unknown powerful beings, which we don’t know of, have long existed on the Norland Continent. For example, the sealed Great Old Ones, or some other hidden powerhouses.” Mag frankly said, “Of course, those that could be killed, are not fit to be called the Great Old Ones.”

Michael’s eyelids twitched. He began to worry for the fate of the Norland Continent’s various races.

However, Mag had made it sound too trivial. Even though that monster was killed by him, it challenged all the elven powerhouses alone and caused the elven queen and high priestess to die of exhaustion. Its terrifying power made all the races very wary.

Mag’s power had already exceeded the 10th-tier and should be considered within the legendary god’s realm.

However, there was no such powerhouse within the other races.

If such a powerful monster appeared on the various races’ territories again, the consequences would be dire.

“Don’t look at me. I’m just a chef. The tofu pudding is ready now. Do you want to have a helping?” Mag went into the kitchen and his voice came out of it.

Michael stood at the kitchen’s doorway and smilingly said with a hint of pleading, “Let me take away one helping just this once. My wife said she hasn’t had tofu pudding for days. She was still talking about it yesterday.”

Mag looked at him and said thoughtfully, “How fast are you?”

Michael patted his chest and said, “Within three minutes.”

“Then, you will have to take note of that. Most normal men are over three minutes.” Mag looked at Michael piteously. “You can come to eat ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ at the restaurant whenever you are free. It’s very nutritious.”

Mag still packed two helpings of tofu pudding for Michael. One savory and one sweet. Mag also packed one for his daughter.

“You can’t hurry about that sort of thing. You have to take things slowly,” Mag patted Michael’s shoulders and said meaningfully.

Michael looked at Mag. He could sense that Mag had a hidden meaning in his words and listening to them simply felt weird.

“Thanks.” Michael placed a dragon coin on the table. He took away another three bowls of congee with pork and century egg before leaving happily.

Mag knew that Michael was indeed very fast. He could take the two helpings of tofu puddings back home within the best consumption time. He was much better than the food delivery services.

As for Michael’s earlier words, they were also within his expectations.

The various races still hadn’t recovered from the trauma of the Great Old Ones, and now there was an incident that caused the deaths of the elven queen and Helena. The existence of such a powerful unknown being made people fearful.

“What did that woman say when she came last night?” Irina came downstairs in a thin nightgown. Her smooth, supple legs could be vaguely seen through the fabric.

“Erm… You weren’t asleep last night?” Mag felt a little guilty.

Irina pulled out a chair and sat across Mag, crossing her fair legs. There was a hint of sarcasm in her cold smile. “Haha. Do you feel great after getting me drunk and then going to flirt with some other women over food and drinks?”

“First, you got drunk yourself. I didn’t get you drunk!

“Secondly, that’s not flirting. It’s necessary socializing for work!

“Finally, it doesn’t feel great, alright!

“I have to fight monsters during the day, be a counselor at night, cook a table full of dishes to entertain the client, after that I have to clear the table, pull all-nighters to do the relationship diagrams, cook early in the morning, prepare to open for business…”

Mag felt increasingly aggrieved as he spoke.

And for whose sake did he work so hard for?

Irina stared at Mag for a while, unmoved. Then, she faintly said, “Why? Do you want me to praise you instead?”

“There is no need for that. That woman came to take something yesterday. I gave her half and I told her to get someone who can make decisions to come and take the remaining half. Her words don’t hold weight.” Mag immediately put on a proper attitude.

“You are not worried that they might get a few gods to silence you?”

“If they don’t mind exposing Underground City, they can try.” Mag smiled with confidence.

“What if the mech was sent by them?”

“We can only take a gamble that Underground City isn’t one solid piece and the power behind Xi is at odds with the power behind that mech monster.” Mag carefreely said, “If we win, we may gain another friend. If we lose, we may have to fight for our lives.”

“How confident are you?”

“80 percent.”

“Mmm?”

“If the power behind Xi was the mech’s controller, she wouldn’t have come last night. The normal operation would be this: Two Extraordinaires come from the sky and annihilate Mamy Restaurant.”

Irina was thoughtful. Given her smart brains, she quickly understood the rationale behind it.

“So, you took a gamble with our lives last night?”

“I borrowed the trident from Kiddo last night and stuck it on the roof top. It can at least divert the lightning and so we would still have a fighting chance,” Mag said honestly.

He didn’t sleep last night. Other than reading, he was also looking out for any trouble coming their way.

“What would you like to have for breakfast?” Mag asked smilingly.

“Congee with pork and century egg, and tofu pudding,” Irina answered without the need to think.

“Wah, wahhh…”

The crying of a baby could be heard coming from upstairs.

Mag and Irina looked at each other in silence.

“You have the experience. You go,” Irina said.

“You brought her back. You should be the one to go.” Mag tried to push the job to her.

“Be good, Little Yayi. Don’t cry. Auntie will bring you downstairs to eat.” Gina’s gentle voice appeared with the footsteps on the staircase.
