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

Chapter 1605: I’m Not Going If It’s Insanely Spicy

The discussion did not last for very long. However, they formed an alliance with the Night Elves and Mag in Chaos City.

Michael and Rolan displayed their leadership skills by deciding to work with Mag and Irina to fight against evil after confirming that the evil god did exist, and that it was trying to take over the world.

Although Chaos City did not belong to a particular race, it was still part of the Norland Continent, and it would not be able to survive on its own in a scenario like this.

Mag and Irina did not object to the alliance, either. They knew that it was impossible to stop the evilness from spreading and growing with their efforts alone. Having Chaos City as an ally would give them substantial support.

“Don’t we have to hand Ferdinand over to them?” Irina asked Mag after they came out from the city lord’s castle.

“I’m worried that an uncontrollable accident may occur. I think it’s better if he’s in our hands before the peace talks.” Mag shook his head. Although Ferdinand was unconscious, the black fog on him wasn’t completely gone, so it would not be appropriate to hand him over to someone else.

“Mm-hm.” Irina nodded slightly. After a while, she looked at Mag, and asked, “Where do you think those fellows are hiding?”

“Maybe instead of hiding, they’re sealed in some place, or even various places. It might be at the bottom of the Boundless Sea or within a mountain somewhere. If they were not sealed up, this world would probably be in chaos already.” Mag shook his head.

“If they’re sealed up, does that mean that gods and deities do exist in this world?”

“Can you feel the existence of the God of Life?” Mag asked Irina curiously.

Irina thought for a while, and said, “I think she exists, but her connection with the Tree of Life isn’t very strong. I can only faintly sense a certain mysterious force existing above the Tree of Life.”

“We can’t be certain that those so-called gods or deities could live through the passage of time just like the Great Old Ones, but if they do exist, perhaps they can sense that those fellows can’t lay still, and might patch up the seal or something. Then maybe the problem would be solved,” Mag said with a smile. That would probably be the most optimistic case.

“Patch up?”

“It means to fill up the holes in the seal.”

“Oh.”

“Say, do you think it’s Alex who’s wearing the mask, or Boss Mag who’s wearing the mask?” Michael asked Rolan with a smile.

Rolan thought for a while, and said, “He is Alex, who is also Boss Mag.”

“I think he actually doesn’t hate the identity of a restaurant owner, and is in fact loving it,” Michael said with a smile.

“That’s exactly why he could hide away from others. If he didn’t come to us, we might not even have realized that he had already assumed the identity of a restaurant owner.”

“Yeah. Who would have thought that Alex, the dragon slayer who wielded a sword, could actually make such delicious food? Even if anyone had been a teeny bit suspicious, they would have forgotten all about it after tasting the food that he made,” Michael said with a nod.

“Will they take action against Sean?” Rolan was worried. Once Alex was with Irina, even if Sean had two great magic casters and two 10th-tier knights with him, it would not guarantee his safety.

“Don’t worry, they won’t do it,” Michael said without any worry at all.

“What? Big Brother Sean is coming to Chaos City?” Vanessa looked at Abraham in surprise. She had been in Chaos City for more than a month, and although she was happy with having hot pot and skewers every day, she still missed her family. It was naturally fabulous to be able to meet Big Brother Sean in Chaos City.

“Yes. Sean is leading the team to visit Chaos City.” Abraham nodded. He looked at Vanessa with mixed feelings, and continued, “And after the visit, he will bring you home along with him.”

“B-bring me home?” Vanessa’s smile froze all of a sudden. She was stunned for a while before her face fell as she asked Abraham, “Who said that I was going back?!”

Abraham tried to be as gentle as possible. He said, “Look, you’ve already been out for more than a month. His and Her Majesties miss you very much, so they want Sean to bring you back. It will save them from worrying too much as well.”

“No! I do miss them, but once I go back, I won’t be able to have hot pot, skewers, soybean milk, and youtiao! Besides, my teeth haven’t healed completely yet. I want to stay by Boss Mag so that he can continue treating my teeth. I’m not going anywhere! I want to eat hot pot!!!” Vanessa shook her head hard, and tears had already started welling up in her eyes as she looked at Abraham with puppy dog eyes.

“Aiyo, my dear girl, this is not something that I can decide. Your royal father wanted me to send you back last month, but I dragged a month out for you. Now, Sean is already on the way. What else can I do?” Abraham shrugged and looked at Vanessa helplessly.

Vanessa thought for a while, and said, “In that case, can I come back out after I return?”

“That’ll depend on His Majesty.” Abraham did not give her a definite answer, but based on the letter he received from the king yesterday, Vanessa probably wouldn’t have a chance to come to Chaos City again any time soon after going back this time. The reason she could successfully leave the last time was that the king permitted it.

“Hmph. I don’t look forward to meeting Big Brother Sean anymore now.” Vanessa let out an angry huff. After a while, she looked at Abraham with a smile, and said, “Uncle Abraham, let’s have hot pot tonight.”

“Mild spicy?” Abraham tried to sound her out.

“Hehe. It doesn’t matter. We can always decide again at the restaurant,” Vanessa said with a smile.

“I’m not going if it’s insanely spicy.” Abraham could already feel his an*s constrict. It could no longer afford to be wrecked again.

“Your Highness, Chaos City is straight ahead,” a general reminded Sean as a giant golden eagle glided by the sky.

“They say that only this city can be compared to Rodu. It seems like that’s quite true.” Sean looked at the city ahead. The city walls were tall, and there were countless houses inside. This city appeared to be a big city with a population of more than a million. It was indeed on par with Rodu.

“It’s just a city. The Roth Empire has acres of land other than Rodu. It’s not something a city that’s made of different peoples could be compared to,” one of the generals mocked.

Everyone on the eagle’s back laughed. Chaos City was nothing in front of the mighty Roth Empire.

“Alright. Don’t say things like this anymore once we reach Chaos City,” Sean said solemnly. He squinted at the city in the distance, and wondered if he would meet that person on this trip.
