Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

Chapter 702 My Hands get Itchy

On the first night in Rodu, Mag had initially thought that his sensitivity would result in insomnia, but he managed to fall asleep as soon as his head came into contact with his pillow, and he was only woken up the morning after by a burst of knocking to the door.

After getting dressed, he opened the door, and found that the man standing outside the was the butler who had guided them the day before, Kaido. He was not a very powerful man, and was only responsible for trivial matters in the palace, such as guiding guests and things of that nature.

In the context of the second prince’s manor, Mag was naturally quite insignificant as well. Even though he was going to cook for the king during his birthday banquet the next day, in Josh’s eyes, he was still nothing more than an exceptional chef.

“Did you sleep well, Mr. Mag?” Kaido asked with a smile. He had heard about everything that had happened the day before, and it appeared that the second prince had been very pleased with Mag’s cooking. As such, he was going to cook for the king on his birthday, and had won the second prince’s favor.

“I slept very well, thank you for asking.” Mag nodded with a smile. He glanced at the time, only to find that it was only just past six in the morning. He was wondering why he had been roused so early.

Kaido could see the confusion in Mag’s eyes, and hurriedly explained, “Mr. Mag, His Highness informed us that he would like to have your steak and braised chicken and rice for breakfast, which is why I was sent to come and find you at such an early hour.”

“I see. Please wait for a moment; I’ll go speak to my daughter, then follow you to the kitchen.” Mag nodded with a smile. This second prince sure was an annoying man. After entering the room, Amy turned to him with a pair of bleary eyes. Mag made his way over to her with a smile on his face, and said, “Amy, I’m going to be cooking for a while. If you wake up before I get back, then just wait for me here, and when I come back, we’ll have breakfast together.”

“Alright.” Amy nodded and rolled over, encircling her arms around Ugly Duckling, which Mag had just picked up from the ground, and fell asleep again.

As Mag followed Kaido to the kitchen, he asked, “His Highness only specified that he would like some steak and braised chicken and rice?”

“That’s right. His Highness told me in person yesterday that he would only like some steak and braised chicken and rice.” Kaido nodded with a smile, and said, “Your cooking skills must really be quite exceptional, Mr. Mag; I’ve never seen His Highness request specific dishes from any chef before.”

“It’s a pity that he doesn’t want some spicy grilled fish,” Mag said with a forlorn expression.

“Huh?” Kaido didn’t understand what Mag was talking about.

Mag didn’t elaborate on this issue, either. He changed the subject, asking Kaido some questions about the situation in the second prince’s manor.

In Kaido’s mind, he was already certain that Mag was going to remain at the second prince’s manor and was almost definitely going to become the most prized chef in the manor’s kitchen, so he naturally revealed everything that Mag wanted to hear without any suspicions.

After cooking a portion of steak and braised chicken and rice each for Josh while repressing the urge to poison the food, Mag made some breakfast for himself, Amy, and Ugly Duckling. He then packed it up into containers and carried them back to the small courtyard that they were staying in. However, his expression faltered as soon as he walked into the door.

In the room, a white-robed Krassu was sitting across from Amy in front of the table, while Ugly Duckling was still napping in Amy’s arms.

“Master Krassu, what brings you here?” Mag entered the room with a hint of surprise on his face.

Krassu immediately grabbed the containers with food from Mag, and said, “In order to enjoy the breakfast cooked by you today, I had to set off late last night.”

“But this is the second prince’s manor...”

“I can even enter the royal palace whenever I want, let alone this prince’s manor.” Krassu placed a portion of steak on the table in front of him before placing the other portion in front of Amy. He nodded with a content expression before turning his attention to the two portions of braised chicken and rice, upon which a slightly disappointed look appeared on his face as he asked, “Why is there no Yangzhou fried rice? Shouldn’t we be eating something lighter in flavor for breakfast?”

Mag smiled as he handed over a knife and fork to Krassu, and he explained, “Yangzhou fried rice requires too many ingredients. This isn’t Mamy Restaurant, after all, and the ingredients are rather limited, so you’ll have to make do with just steak for now.”

He then placed a portion of braised chicken and rice in front of Amy, keeping another portion for himself, and placing a small portion on the ground for Ugly Duckling.

“That won’t do! We’re doing something very important today, so I have to eat a big breakfast.” Krassu grabbed Ugly Duckling’s braised chicken and rice as he spoke, and scooped a spoonful into his mouth as he nodded with approval. “Delicious.”

“Meow~”

Ugly Duckling turned to Krassu with a pitiable expression, then turned its gaze toward Amy, and there were already tears swimming in its eyes.

“Alright, I’ll make sure to save some for you.” Amy patted Ugly Duckling’s head before continuing to enjoy her breakfast.

“Meow~”

Ugly Duckling was immediately elated again as it stared up at Amy while she ate.

Mag could only shake his head with a resigned expression at the sight of Krassu stealing Ugly Duckling’s food before he sat down to enjoy his own meal. He was also rather skeptical whether Amy would actually remember to save some food for Ugly Duckling.

15 minutes later, Amy looked down at her spotless plate before turning to Ugly Duckling with an apologetic expression. “Ah... Ugly Duckling, I’m sorry; Father’s food was simply too delicious, and I ate all of it without noticing.”

“Meow~”

Ugly Duckling gave a feeble cry before sprawling onto Amy’s leg. It didn’t even have the strength to cry loudly anymore.

Thankfully, Mag had predicted this situation in advance, and had saved some food for Ugly Duckling himself. He scooped out the small portion of leftover braised chicken and rice from his bowl into Ugly Duckling’s plate, and smile as he said, “Here you go.”

“Meow!”

Ugly Duckling was immediately completely reinvigorated as it jumped down from Amy’s legs. It then rubbed its little head affectionately against Mag’s calf before digging into its meal.

After finishing the final piece of steak on his plate, Krassu put down the knife and fork in his hands, looking as if he hadn’t had anywhere near enough. He turned to Mag, and asked, “I’m going to take Amy to the Magus Tower; would you like to come?”

“The Magus Tower?” Magus Tower was rather surprised to hear this.

Krassu summoned a mirror, and then brought out a small blade as he began to shave down his unruly facial hair. “That’s right. I left something there, and I have to go grab it. In the meantime, I’ll bring my prized disciple with me to slap those old bastards in the face. My hands get itchy if I don’t slap them regularly.”

“That sounds like fun. I’ve got nothing better to do anyway, so count me in,” Mag said with a smile. There weren’t many people in this world who would dare to speak about the Magus Tower in such a bullish manner other than Krassu.

“Are we slapping people? I love slapping people! Are we using our palms or are we using our fists?” Amy was also very excited.

“Let’s go there first. Once we get there, you can slap them however you want.” Krassu put away his small blade before rising to his feet.

“Yay!” Amy picked up Ugly Duckling and tucked it under her arm before quickly following Krassu out of the room.

Ugly Duckling look on with wide eyes that were filled with despair at the sight of the large piece of chicken left in the place. It had set that piece of chicken aside for last, but it wouldn’t get to eat it now!
