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

"The ladies from the restaurant would like to be part-time teachers as well? Of course I would welcome them. They are all very outstanding ladies that are all good at something."

Luna, who was sitting opposite Mag, was surprised and delighted to hear the reason for Mag's visit.

Luna had taken part in a few of Mamy Restaurant's gatherings so she knew the ladies of the restaurant and knew them well.

"Babla said that she wanted to be a tutor for spatial magic. However, she can only have two classes a week. Oh right, she is an 8th-tier spatial magic caster.

"Gina says she wants to be a music teacher. She is fine as long as the lesson timing doesn't clash with the working hours of the restaurant.

"Shirley wants to teach the children archery. Is there an archery class in the school?

"Hannah wants to teach the children how to brew wine but wine brewing is something even more difficult than cooking. On top of that, brewing rum requires a very large area and the process is also very complicated. I find it a little unsuitable for children."

Mag listed what the ladies said.

Luna replied with a smile, "We were still stressed about not being able to hire good magic casting teachers. If Babla is willing to come, there's no problem with two lessons a week. After all, spatial magic casters are very rare.

"Gina sings very well and if she could be a music teacher, I can arrange four large lectures for her each week. This way, I doubt it would affect her work arrangements.

"We do have archery classes but we are indeed short of teachers. It would be great if Shirley could come.

"However, we don't have a wine brewing career on the campus. Hannah is an excellent brewer but I'm afraid we currently do not have the space and sufficient teaching capabilities to support this profession."

Mag nodded. It was just as he expected. He asked, "In that case, when can the ladies go for the test?"

"Tomorrow will be the last day for all the teachers' tests. Do you think nine in the morning would work?" Luna asked.

"Sure. I'll let them know to go over for the test tomorrow morning. I shall not disturb you at work." Mag stood up and left.

Luna stood in her office and watched as Mag disappeared into the long corridor, before closing the door and returning to her seat.

Now that the school was opening, many administrative matters had been stacking up and that made her hands full.

Thankfully, there were many outstanding experienced teachers among the teaching staff, so most of the school's opening matters were more or less settled. The name list for the first batch of students was also out.

There would be more than 2300 new students joining Hope School this semester.

"Teacher Luna looked rather tired. Should I send her a helping of the 'Buddha Jumps Over the Wall' later?" Mag thought to himself as he rode out from the campus.

She must have been exhausted as her face was pale and the dark circles under her eyes were quite bad.

Mag could see all the effort she put in running the operations of such a big school alone.

If it was not for her passion for children, how could such a weak lady complete such a complicated and difficult task?

Mag was grateful to Luna and respected her.

She once protected Amy's young and pure heart in the most difficult times.

Therefore, he was willing to do many things for Luna, including helping her set up Hope School to give something else other than food to these children.

"I'm so bored… So this is what it feels like to be Queen. This is so boring." Camilla sat at the tallest tower of her castle, enjoying the sea breeze as she swirled the red wine in her glass.

A long, black dress hugged her long legs, which were propped up on her rocking chair and as she rocked gently, her full blossoms swayed with her.

"It is rather boring. Therefore, I intend to go to Chaos City. I'll leave everything here to you," Dracula said with a smile as he appeared beside her.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

"No! Uncle, please bring me along!" Camilla jumped up from her chair and looked at Dracula with pleading eyes.

"Are you thinking of leaving your throne behind to become a service staff member?" Dracula looked at Camilla with a strange expression.

Although she had not told him why she went to Mamy Restaurant to be a service staff member, this seemed like she was a little masochistic.

"In that case, are you intending to forgo the delicious blood to eat grass in Mamy Restaurant?" Camilla mocked.

Dracula was filled with awkwardness as he retorted, "It's a fish!"

"Although it is shaped like a fish, it is still an eggplant and is in the same category as grass." Camilla corrected him. "On top of that, I was the one who cut the eggplant!"

Dracula thought for a while and said with a nod, "Alright. Since the peace accord has been signed, I doubt anyone would cause any trouble right now. Let's have some fun in Chaos City."

"Let's go! Right now!" Camilla said excitedly.

After staying in the Demon Islands for the past few days, Camilla had been drinking several lousy types of blood that were making her lose her taste. She was even starting to miss Mag's taste.

Oh, it's the taste of his cooking.

Besides, she should return to retrieve the Photostone that belonged to her.

After all, she was someone with status right now. As the Chief of the Vampires, how could she allow her dark history to be left in the hands of a human man?

The thought of that Photostone made Camilla blush all of a sudden.

"What are we having today? Let's have hot pot. Royal Mother. let's go eat." In the grand hall, Vanessa pulled Syndra's hand and said expectantly, "Mana Hot Pot Restaurant has pretty good hot pot too. It's opened by Boss Mag and Big Sister Rena. The food there is cheap and the place is spacious too. If we go there earlier, we might not have to queue and might even get a private room."

Syndra's face was no longer pale and she looked more energetic too. She held Vanessa's hand and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, alright. I'll leave it up to you. We can have whatever you want."

"Hehe. You have no idea how much I was craving for hot pot back then but my tooth issue was not resolved, so I could not eat it. Now that my teeth are fine, Uncle Abraham has eaten so many hot pots with me that he's sick of them," Vanessa said with a smile, "He happens to be arriving in Chaos City today too. We'll have hot pot together later."

Abraham, who just reached the door, was stunned. His expression changed and he wanted to retract the foot that had already taken a step into the hall.

"Uncle Abraham, you've arrived!" Vanessa had already seen him. She went up to him with a smile and said, "Tonight, we're having insanely spicy hot pot, let's go!"

"I can't do it." Abraham waved his hands quickly.

"Just super spicy then?"

"Her Majesty has just recovered. She cannot eat food that is too spicy. Why don't we order the clear soup?" Abraham suggested seriously.

"The double-flavored hot pot is my bottom line." Vanessa shook her head.
