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

Chapter 710 I Should Just Kidnap Her!

On the first floor of the Magus Tower, everyone still had yet to recover from the shock of witnessing Amy creating that extraordinary record. They could already envision the rise of a new legendary magic caster.

She was only four years old, yet she was a 5th-tier magic caster who had only taken 20 seconds to scale five levels of the Magus Tower. It was impossible to imagine where her limits could lie.

In that instant, everyone understood why Urien and Krassu had been willing to set aside their century-long feud and accept the same little half-elf girl. Not only that, but Krassu had even withdrawn from the Magus Tower and left Rodu to settle permanently in Chaos City for her.

If he were to miss out on such an exceptional prodigy, there most likely wouldn’t be another one like her even in 1,000 years.

Richard was still forcing himself to maintain a calm expression, but his trembling beard and tightly clenched fists betrayed the true extent of the emotional turmoil that he was experiencing.

The Fire Spirit Lotus was next to useless to him, but it was a treasure of the same caliber as the Water Spirit Jewel, he had initially prepared to exchange it for a Water Spirit Jewel. However, he now had to hand it over to Krassu free of charge.

All of the magic casters in Richard’s faction had also fallen completely silent. The short and fat magic caster who had predicted Kola’s victory had slunk his way to the back of the crowd, not daring to raise his head as he buried his chin into his chest.

Krassu had left the Magus Tower, then come back with his disciple, and severely humiliated the Magus Tower.

Your daddy would always be your daddy.

All of the magic casters present were very dejected, but they were satisfied that they had lost fair and square.

None of the ordinary magic casters felt anything other than disappointment and shame. After all, Krassu was their senior, so he had every right to teach them a lesson.

Krassu hadn’t ever accepted a disciple in his life, yet he had suddenly taken a half-elf little girl under his wing, so it only made sense that she was an extraordinary prodigy.

Furthermore, Richard had also attempted to humiliate Krassu by sending Hank and George to Chaos City back when Krassu had only just taken Amy as his disciple, so he had every right to retaliate.

“Kola is also about to come out soon as well. Go and get him.” Richard’s voice was slightly strained.

“Yes.” A tall and thin magic caster beside him nodded before quickly departing.

“I’ll go get Amy,” Mag said to Krassu before quickly following along behind that tall and thin magic caster. He wasn’t used to having Amy out of his sight, especially in a place like the Magus Tower.

Krassu nodded in response before turning to Richard. He extended a hand, and said, “Hand over your Fire Spirit Lotus.”

“Hmph!” Richard harrumphed coldly as he turned to Krassu, and said, “I don’t know what kind of tricks she used to scale the tower this quickly, but seeing as she’s already mastered manifestation magic and ability endowment, how about she and Kola have a real match? Aside from that Fire Spirit Lotus, I also have a Flame Spirit Crystal that I’m willing to bet.”

Krassu’s eyes lit up slightly up hearing this. “Really?”

Richard poked his hand into his wide sleeve and produced a box that was emanating fiery red light. The box opened, and a crystal that resembled red amber was revealed. There was a tiny little dragon slowly whizzing around within the crystal as if it were a living creature.

“Alright, I’ll take you up on that bet.” Krassu immediately nodded as he looked at the Flame Spirit Crystal in Richard’s hand. The Flame Spirit Crystal was superb cultivation material for fire-type magic casters, one that was far more valuable than the Fire Spirit Lotus.

This item could only be found in the lava of active volcanoes that had existed for tens of thousands of years, and almost no one had ever seen one. It was a legendary object that was sought after by countless fire-type magic casters, and it was rather ironic that a water-type magic caster like Richard would possess one.

Richard stowed away the Flame Spirit Crystal in his hand, and looked at Krassu as he thought to himself, I don’t know what tricks you used to make her scale the tower that quickly, but using tricks to accelerate her growth is only going to hurt her in the long run. She progressed five levels in two months, so her foundation is almost non-existent. How is she going to be able to perform in a battle?

…

“I…” Amy looked at Irina, and suddenly recalled her father’s cautionary words spoken to her on the night before they had set off for Rodu. Even though this big sister didn’t appear to be a bad person, Mag would definitely scold her if she told this big sister her real name. As such, she thought to herself for a moment before smiling as she replied, “I’m Xiao Mi[1].”

“Xiao Mi!” Irina was stunned to hear this name. She suddenly thought back to when she had returned to the Wind Forest on the cusp of labor. After her daughter was born, she gave her the name “Amy”, as well as “Xiao Mi” as a pet name.

She had silver hair, bright blue eyes, pointy little ears, a slightly round face that bore a hint of resemblance to Alex, and facial features that resembled her own. In particular, Irina felt as if she could see the shadow of another person in the little girl’s smile.

She was reminded of the cold and forbidding knight who once stood at the pinnacle of the entire continent, but would often smile like a young boy when he was with her.

No, it can’t be her! This is Rodu; this is the Magus Tower… How could she be here… Irina felt as if her heart had been grasped tightly with an iron grip. Her mind told her “no”, but the more that she looked at Amy, the more her heart told her that this was her daughter.

She couldn’t help but reach toward Amy’s face, and grazed a finger over her slightly chubby cheek. “Your face is so soft.”

“Father says using milk to wash my face every day will make it really soft.” Amy rubbed her cheek against Irina’s hand, and her eyes narrowed in a beaming smile, giving her the appearance of a content little kitten.

How can she be this adorable?! Irina felt as if her heart were about to melt, and she was suddenly struck by a strong impulsive urge.

Who cares whose child she is; I should just kidnap her! Whenever I’m in a bad mood, I can just squeeze her little cheeks; it’ll be much more fun than looking after goldfish. Wait, that’s not the point! Irina shook her head to rid herself of that strange train of thought, and she recomposed herself before asking, “Xiao Mi, who’s your father? And what about your mother?”

Amy was basking in the comforting sensation of rubbing her cheek against Irina’s hand when her eyes suddenly snapped open. Could it be that this was the kind of bad person that her father had told her about? The kind that started off by asking for her name, then asking about her parents before abducting her in the end?

“My father is a super great chef, and everyone calls him Boss Mag. He’s super strong and his food is super tasty.” Amy smiled as she said, “My mother is living on the moon, and she’s looking down at me from the sky right now.”

Boss… Mag? Xiao Mi?! Irina’s eyes gradually widened as a series of connections were established in her mind.

Right at this moment, the sound of footsteps approached from outside the room.

[1] Xiao means little in Chinese, so she’s essentially saying her name is Little Mi.
