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

Mag conveyed the conditions raised by the Elder Things exactly as they were said to Dexter and offered his own judgment.

Dexter was Lantisde's High Priest and had a high status, on par with the King. He might even have the power to make decisions on certain important things.

After hearing Mag's description of the Underground City, Dexter and Gina were both shocked.

Another world, under the Norland Continent, controlled by an even stronger and more advanced race.

Right now, Lantisde has fallen into that world.

They had once given up on the Norland Continent and had now entered an even richer Underground World with a new civilization.

Right now, Lantisde had the chance to join this world and assimilate into their culture.

"Mr. Mag, you are Lantisde's benefactor. We…" Dexter said with a frown.

"What I did was just a simple gesture. You should consider Lantisde's future. I hope I am not a factor influencing your choice." Mag shook his head with a smile. He knew what Dexter was going to say.

"Besides, I am happy to see a stronger Lantisde and a force that would have kind intentions to the Norland Continent in the Underground City."

Dexter's eyes lit up. He looked at Mag and nodded. "I understand."

Mag nodded with a smile. He knew that Dexter would make the wise choice. As for Lantisde, this was indeed a chance that was hard to come by.

"I… I want to stay in the Norland Continent." Gina finally spoke after staying silent.

She was very smart and after listening to Mag and Dexter's conversation, she had already guessed that Lantisde would remain in the Underground City.

Mag and Dexter looked at her.

"I want to stay with Mr. Mag and continue serving Mr. Mag." Gina looked at Mag and said thoughtfully, "You saved me and gave Lantisde hope. You even found an even brighter future for Lantisde. I want to stay to repay this favor."

Dexter looked at Gina, hesitating to speak.

Gina had pure royal blood. On top of that, she was very talented in magic. If she were to go to the Underground City, she could very well break through the 10th-tier limit and become the hope of Lantisde's future.

However, Dexter could not find any words to refute what she said.

What Mag had done for Lantisde was not something one could repay with words alone.

"Gina, your parents, family, and friends will all be going to the Underground City. If you stay behind, you might not have the chance to see them again." Mag looked at Gina with a smile. "Silly lass. You don't owe me anything. You should pursue an even better future and not be bound by the so-called repaying of a favor."

"No! I want to stay in Mamy Restaurant. It's not just to repay your favor but also because I love my colleagues and the delicious food…" Gina was resolute. Although she did blush slightly towards the end, that did not make her change her mind. "I must stay. I like the Norland Continent and I like this world."

"This child…" Dexter sighed and smiled helplessly.

After all, she had been learning magic from him since she was a kid and he knew her character very well.

"Er…" Mag looked at Gina and could not help but feel a little touched. He thought for a while and said, "I respect your decision."

"Thank you, Boss!" Gina jumped up and down happily.

Mag looked at Dexter and said, "This is between the Lantisdeans and the Elder Things. I am just a middle man. Now that there is a basic understanding, I will get the person-in-charge over there to discuss the details with you. You will still have to finalize the specific conditions of the agreement."

"Sure. Thank you Mr. Mag." Dexter bowed and said seriously, "If anything happens in the future, you have to inform us. Even if we have to open up a channel between both worlds again, Lantisde will definitely be there!"

"Sure," Mag said solemnly.

This was a promise given by the race that was about to join the Elder Things, a promise that weighed heavier than gold.

Xi brought Dexter away and Mag did not participate in the future discussions.

Lantisde was no small fry and Dexter was also very wise. Mag need not worry that they would be disadvantaged.

Dexter gave Gina a crystal ball and said his final words before leaving without turning back.

Gina held on to the crystal ball and watched the gray battleship disappear over the horizon while standing on the purple-striped griffin's back. Her eyes were red.

This goodbye might very well be a bye forever.

No matter how resolute she sounded just now, Gina was still a young girl.

"Alright, we should go home too." Mag stroked her head with a smile.Googlᴇ search Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

"Go home?" Gina turned to look at Mag.

"Mm. From now on, the restaurant will be your home." Mag nodded.

Gina was stunned. After that, a smile bloomed on her face and she pounced into Mag's embrace.

"You're such a nice man, Boss…" Mag wanted to remind her to mind her behavior. He put her legs down first but after feeling the sense of reliance from the young lady in his embrace, he patted her gently on her back.

"Oh, right. Before going home, Gina, you need to make an oath, swearing that you will not reveal anything about the Underground City to another person," Mag told Gina on their way back.

The Underground City had strict requirements to prevent any information leaking out about their existence.

As the Princess of Lantisde, if Gina wanted to stay on the Norland Continent, she would have to keep her part of the deal.

Wiping out that part of Gina's memory would be pointless.

Even if she did not know of the existence of the Underground City and had not heard that conversation, how could one explain the disappearance of Lantisde and her people all of a sudden?

Tell her that her people were wiped out?

This child would probably live in misery and hatred for the rest of her life.

Since she had chosen to stay on the Norland Continent, Mag could only make her promise not to leak out any information about the Underground City to anyone.

Besides, is the Underground City really that unreachable?

It was no longer mysterious since it had already shown the tip of its iceberg.

The answers to breaking past the 10th-tier might be found there.

One day, Mag would go over personally to take a look at the other side of this world.

Gina did not probe further and swore straight away.

Mag passed the footage of Gina taking the oath to Xi and told the latter that the former had chosen to stay on the Norland Continent.

"Do I really not have a chance to meet them anymore?" Gina asked softly, feeling a little down, after taking the oath.

"Don't worry. When you're all grown up and have become even stronger, you would definitely get to meet them again," Mag said encouragingly.

Gina was extremely talented. In the future, she would definitely break through the 10th-tier.

"Really?" Gina's eyes lit up.

"Of course."
