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

Chapter 498 All That’s Left is to Find a Man

“The super spicy grilled fish is amazing! I feel like my entire body is on fire!” Vivian panted heavily with sweat pouring down her face, but she was looking at Luna with an elated expression.

“It’s too spicy for me; I don’t think my stomach will be able to handle any more.” Luna’s nose and eyes were both red, and she was dabbing at her eyes with a white handkerchief to suppress her tears. This level of spiciness was beyond her tolerance, and even eating just a little was too much for her.

“It’s alright, Luna, you’ll be fine. I eat this stuff every day, and I’m perfectly ok.” Vivian waved her hand before placing another large chunk of fish into her mouth. The spicy flavor spread along her tongue, and then throughout her entire body, expelling all of the frosty energy within her meridians. After increasing the spiciness level from what she normally had, this feeling became even more pronounced.

“At this rate, I feel like I’ll be cured in a month or two.” Vivian was overjoyed.

“Then you should eat some more. This spicy grilled fish was practically made for you.” Luna was also looking at Vivian with a joyful smile. Countless doctors and magic casters had tried and failed to cure Vivian’s condition, but in the end, it was cured by a delicious spicy grilled fish. Fate worked in some amazing ways at times.

“That’s true. After I’m cured, I’m going to send a plaque over to the restaurant that says ‘Greatest Doctor In History’.” Vivian nodded with a smile.

“Pffft.” Luna couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She flicked Vivian on the forehead, and chuckled as she said, “Where is Boss Mag supposed to hang up a plaque like that? He’s a chef, not a doctor.”

“Chefs who can’t cure illnesses aren’t good chefs.” Vivian shrugged in response.

“Whatever you say.” Luna scooped a spoonful of tofu pudding into her mouth to alleviate the scorching spicy sensation. She still preferred foods with more subtle flavor, after all.

“That elf sure was good-looking. It’s a pity that he’s gone now; I haven’t seen eye candy like him for a long time.” Vivian looked at the restaurant entrance with a slightly forlorn expression.

“Have you fallen in love?” Luna asked with a smile.

“Of course not! There’s no way I’d like him.” Vivian raised an eyebrow as she whispered, “Plus, do you think a man as good-looking as him would like a woman who’s uglier than him? A man like him would only look for a woman more beautiful than him. Either that or he’s into other men.”

“Hey, that’s going too far.” Luna glared at Vivian as a horrified look appeared in her eyes.

“Hehe, you never know.” Vivian chuckled before turning her attention back to her grilled fish.

Sally looked at the restaurant’s entrance with an unsettled expression. She had envisioned being identified by one of her elven brethren countless times in her mind, but never would she have thought that the first person to identify her would be Blour Baibilly, the man that was supposed to be her fiance.

The Baibilly Family had a higher status than the Brewster Family in the elven race, and that was why the marriage had been agreed on without her consent.

As for this fiance who was known as the most handsome male in the elven race, Sally had seen him back when she was a child. She recalled that he was constantly spying on Princess Irina and her group of little friends while perched on a tree, and that was the only memory she had of him. Who would have thought that he would suddenly turn up at Mamy Restaurant to seek her out?

Who was that elf during the lunch service, then? Sally thought to herself with furrowed brows. Her peaceful life had been interrupted all of a sudden, and she would either have to return to the Wind Forest or leave Mamy Restaurant to embark on another journey. She found both of those options very frustrating

“Aisha, what’s wrong?” Yabemiya laid a hand gently on Sally’s arm and handed her the gold coin that she had just taken.

“Oh… Nothing.” Sally forced a smile onto her face in response. She accepted the gold coin from Yabemiya, and did her best to focus on doing her job.

What’s going on with Aisha? She isn’t normally like this. Yabemiya was a little concerned as she looked at Sally. However, she was quickly called over by customers who were ready to place their orders, and she didn’t have any time to ponder the issue.

Sally ran away from home, so it’s only normal that people from her family want her to return home. Whether she wants to go home or not is her choice; if necessary, I can perhaps ask Krassu and Urien to help her. Mag was also rather concerned as he looked at Sally. He had anticipated that this day would come, but he was still feeling quite conflicted when this scenario actually eventuated.

“Boss Mag, I would like to extend another offer to you to open a restaurant on the Demon Islands. I swear on the honor of the vampire race that your safety will be assured, and business will be just as good if not better than here.” After paying for his meal, Dracula extended another earnest invitation to Mag.

Before Mag had even given a reply, all of the customers had turned to Dracula with enmity in their eyes. If they had any say in it, Mag wasn’t going anywhere.

“Do you think the honor of the vampire race outweighs the two of us?” Krassu looked at Dracula with a meaningful expression.

“Back then, there was a blabbermouth who swore on the honor of his ogre race that he would eat me. After that, ogres ceased to exist in this world.” Urien also turned to Dracula with a calm expression. His voice was very tranquil and placid as if he were discussing the weather outside rather than mass genocide.

“Come to think of it, I think it’s good that your restaurant is here, Boss Mag. I’ll be sure to come back in the future to enjoy your food again. Master Krassu, Master Urien, please enjoy your meal.” Dracula felt a chill run down his spine, and he immediately forced a smile onto his face as he hurriedly retreated out of the restaurant. As soon as he was out the door, he spread open his massive wings and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Mag looked on with an amused smile as he swallowed the rejection that he hadn’t even had a chance to utter.

“Bye, Boss, bye, Little Amy.” Yabemiya and Sally bade farewell before leaving the restaurant.

After exiting the restaurant, Sally turned to Yabemiya, and said, “Miya, you go home first today. I still have something that I need to do.”

“Aisha, are you really alright?” Yabemiya was quite concerned as she looked at Sally. She had been very absent-minded the entire night, and now, she was separating herself from Miya to do something on her own.

“I’m fine. I just need to go and meet someone; don’t worry about me.” Sally shook her head with a smile. It was good to know what at least someone was concerned about her.

“Alright, then. Be safe.” Yabemiya nodded before departing.

“You can come down now.” After Yabemiya’s departing figure had faded in the distance, Sally turned her attention to a large tree near the restaurant, where a figure was reclining on a sturdy branch.
