A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 1717: Do You Have The Big G?

“Is that the conclusion you reached after studying that octopus tentacle?” Irina looked at Mag suspiciously.

“Yes. Due to the difficulty of elevating your current power, I decided to eat it up.” Mag nodded seriously.

“You want to eat that fellow?” Irina furrowed her delicate eyebrows. She felt disgusted as soon as she thought of that sticky octopus monster with eyes all over its body, let alone when considering eating it.

Mag nodded. “Yes. After my experiments, I know that this octopus monster is, in fact, an excellent ingredient, and it has a regenerative characteristic. The first batch of tentacles might taste slightly subpar, but the newly grown tentacles taste excellent. It tastes way better and fresher than the usual seafood.” The system had grown a semifinished product of the Great Old One with that severed tentacle, and used it to conduct a huge number of hardcore testings.

“So… you’ve already eaten it?” Irina’s expression became a little complicated, and she took half a step back instinctively.

“As a qualified chef, my exploration of ingredients is never-ending,” Mag calmly replied. Of course, he couldn’t tell Irina the existence of the system.

Irina pondered seriously before asking, “Then, have you explored sheep’s dung before?”

Mag shook his head. “I have never explored sheep’s dung before, but the cat poop coffee[1] is not bad.”

“Therefore… the reason why Ugly Duckling’s toilet is so clean every day…” Irina took another step back with gradually widening eyes.

Mag looked at Irina, who had an increasingly frightened expression, and suddenly realized that she might have misunderstood. He quickly waved his hands, and said, “No. Ugly Duckling’s toilet is completely cleaned automatically. This has nothing to do with me. This cat poop coffee—”

“Alright. I will keep the matter of you eating cat poop a secret for you,” Irina interrupted Mag with a complicated expression.

“Thank you…” Mag said helplessly.

“Now is not the time to discuss whether this octopus monster can be eaten or not. You said only my Holy Light magic can cause substantial harm to it, but its intensity isn’t strong enough. However, I’m already the only great light magic caster on the Norland Continent. Does this mean that we have no ways to deal with it?” Irina asked with furrowed brows.

“In the light of the present situation, yes.” Mag nodded.

“Then, how was its head cut off? And where is the rest of the body sealed?”

“This…” Mag was slightly stunned. That octopus monster’s head was as big as a small hill, so its body naturally had to be even more enormous. So how did those people in the past cut its head off and seal it?

“Perhaps 10th-tier isn’t the real upper limit? There were magic casters and powerhouses beyond the 10th-tier on the Norland Continent in the past, and they sliced and sealed up these devils?” Mag’s thinking began to clear up slowly.

“Therefore, the gods in all the races’ legends are not just legends. They could be a group of top powerhouses that had really existed then?” Irina’s eyes slowly lit up too.

Mag nodded. “If the Goddess of Light really existed, and she was able to establish a connection with you through the spells and bestow the power of Holy Light upon you, then her power would naturally be above the 10th-tier.”

“But where are we going to find these gods and get them to help us kill or seal again these devils who are about to escape soon?”

Mag shook his head. “We’re still unable to ascertain that these gods are immortal, and could survive for ages like the devils, and we don’t know how we can ask them to help, either. We’ve discussed this problem before.”

“Perhaps I should make a trip back to the Wind Forest.”

“Huh?”

“Regarding the Goddess of Life, the elven queen might know some secrets that others have no idea about,” Irina calmly said. “And the Tree of Life should be the most relevant existence to the Goddess of Life.”

After some pondering, Mag nodded, and said, “I will get Ah Zi to bring you there.”

Irina nodded slightly. “Great. I’ll set off tonight, and return by tomorrow morning.”

“Be careful. Helena hates you the most now,” said Mag.

“If I had the chance, I would really like to hack her.” Irina made a knife gesture with her hand.

***

Mag returned to the restaurant, and poured himself a cup of water. He sat by the window and pondered.

Searching hard for the ancient gods was one method, while figuring how to break through the 10th-tier upper limit and save the world was another method.

Of course, his most crucial task now was to restore his power to 10th-tier before he could think about how to break through the 10th-tier.

“System, I felt that we’re veering off the main objective here? I’m obviously just a reserve for the God of Cookery, so why did the task of saving the world fall onto me? Could you please correct this world’s normal development trend? For example, getting rid of those extra Great Old Ones so I could focus on being a good chef again?” Mag dissed in his mind.

“The Host’s request is not within this System’s scope of functions!” answered the system calmly.

Mag began to bluff. “Why don’t you consult with your superior? If this world is destroyed or descends into war, I will have no way to complete my ultimate task of promoting scrumptious food in this world, either.”

“In order not to let my superiors suspect my work performance, this System will never do such a thing! Do you think I have the Big G[2]?” the system answered rather proudly.

“You might not have it, but I do. Isn’t it just a Big G? I’ll buy it for you.”

“Haha. I’m sorry, but your Big G cannot enter the Forbidden City[3] avoided tourists and enjoyed the palace.” The post went viral and drew tens of thousands of comments. The Palace Museum, which runs the 600-year-old landmark, later apologized, confirming that a car had been allowed to enter the complex on Monday last week when it was closed to the public.].”

“???”

Mag was puzzled over the system’s answer.

“That’s all you need to know. Otherwise, this System might be resolved too.” Before Mag could ask, the system already stopped him from doing so.

Mag frowned slightly as he discovered that things weren’t simple.

An existence that even the system dared not discuss. Hence, he could only pretend not to know anything, and not ask any questions.

Of course, the plan of making a higher-level existence get rid of the Great Old Ones had failed. This lousy system was rather useless.

Shortly after, Camilla and the ladies arrived at the restaurant one by one, and the busy operation period started again.

“Young Master, look. Is that Miss Shirley?” a servant said softly as he held up Constantine.New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

“Don’t hold me. I can manage by myself.” Constantine shook away the servant’s hand. He stared at the beautiful young maiden standing behind Mag at the restaurant’s entrance with glistening eyes. That was the maiden whom he had been missing day and night, and he finally saw her again.

He was overwhelmed by complex emotions, and he wished he could rush over to embrace her tightly in his arms. He wanted to tell her how much he missed her.

However, the self-cultivation of a gentleman made him restrain himself, and he straightened his clothes. Although the clothes became loose due to his rapid weight loss, it didn’t diminish his aura.

He slowly proceeded forward with the line. When he finally reached the restaurant’s entrance and stood in front of Shirley, he suppressed his overwhelming emotions, and stared at Shirley lovingly.

Constantine’s story had become a much-told tale in Mamy Restaurant recently. This Casanova had become a devoted prince whom everyone praised.

The male lead and female lead were meeting again today, so many people were watching this scene with anticipation.

It is also called civet cat coffee. The cherries are fermented as they pass through a civet’s intestines, and after being defecated with other fecal matter, they are collected.
