Although Mag didn’t like Krassu getting too close to Amy, he had no reason to ban him.
After all, it was not against his dining rules to take Amy in as a disciple, and he wasn’t strong enough to force this powerful magic caster to leave, so all he could do was watch him carefully in case he lured Amy away.
Amy’s words made some customers laugh. They had overheard their little agreement the other day.
“Okay. What do you want to eat? Just tell me and I’ll buy it for you,” Krassu said with a smile, taking a seat at Amy’s table.
“I want a plate of Yangzhou fried rice,” Amy said, smiling. “You said you would pay for me. You can’t go back on your promise.”“I won’t.” Krassu pulled six gold coins from his purse and handed them to Amy. “Here, six gold coins,” he said, a little embarrassed but happy.
“Thank you, half-bearded grandpa.” Amy took the coins happily and lifted her head to wink at Mag, giving a self-satisfied smile.
Mag shook his head, smiling. Krassu had planned to create an opportunity to spend some time with Amy alone so that he could check her magic talent. He had failed and fallen for Amy’s trick, but he had found out that Amy had a great talent.
It wasn’t bad news for Mag. Amy’s magic talent must be really good if even such a powerful magic caster wants to take her in as a disciple. She may become a very powerful magic caster too.
As Krassu had said, one had to be strong to live in this world.
However, Mag didn’t have to be strong. He just needed to be rich. He could buy all kinds of stuff from the system.
After all, it was too late for Mag to start training. It was much easier to buy strength from the system. Besides, he could upgrade his restaurant.Yabemiya cleared the table and walked out of the kitchen quickly. She stood beside Mag with her legs together, smiling like him. Her body was a little rigid, her heart pounding, and her mind blank with nervousness.
“Who is this young lady, Mag?” Harrison asked curiously, looking at Yabemiya. He knew at the first glance that she was a half-dragon, but her extraordinary clothes and her delicate collarbones which were showing through her dress were very charming. The black stockings on her slim legs and her white hairband looked strange to him.
Some customers also stared at Mag and Yabemiya out of curiosity, waiting for Mag to answer the question that had been baffling them.
Amy is a half-elf, so clearly her mother is an elf. This young lady is not her mother.
Although she’s a half-dragon, her smile is very pleasant, like a fresh breath of spring, making us feel wonderful, they thought.
“She’s our waitress, Yabemiya,” Mag said, smiling. Most of the people lining up here are regulars. They like Amy, so they should be more open to hybrids. And he was right.
Harrison snapped his fingers. “See? I told you she’s a waitress,” he said gloatingly to Gjergj. Then he gave Mag a thumbs-up. “Mag, your eyes are pretty sharp. She fits the style of your restaurant perfectly.”
Mag nodded, smiling. He liked what Harrison had just said. He did have sharp eyes.
Yabemiya blushed, not out of abashment, but because she was a little excited. No customer had ever complimented her before. Although Harrison was mainly praising Mag, she still felt a little flattered.
Gjergj nodded. “Yes. I like her smile, it’s very contagious.” He smiled and walked in with Harrison.
Other customers were all smiling at her with admiring eyes. Somehow, they didn’t find hybrids unpleasant anymore; maybe it was because of Amy. They liked Amy, and now they felt attracted to Yabemiya.
Yabemiya smiled more confidently. She straightened her back and felt less nervous and more important. She represented the restaurant from now on, and her manners would affect customers’ impression of them. She didn’t want to fail Mag’s trust.
After the customers had all entered, Mag loosed his grip on the door handle. “Relax, Miya. I’ll take the orders of the first 10 customers, and you’ll take it from there. Do you think you can handle it?” he said, watching Yabemiya.
She nodded solemnly. “Yes.” Her right fist was clenched. Obviously, she was still a little nervous.
Amy walked over to her, holding Ugly Duckling in her arms. “You can do it, Sister Miya,” she said as she looked up at her, holding her little fist up. Then she shook her kitten, signaling it to encourage her.
“Meow…” Ugly Duckling cried out reluctantly.
Yabemiya nodded. Her heart felt warm as she looked at Mag, Amy, and the kitten.
Mag walked inside and started taking orders.
“I’d like three plates of Yangzhou fried rice, Mag. Please serve two plates first and the last one later,” Krassu said to Mag with a smile.
Mag nodded. “Okay, please wait a sec.” Of course one plate was for Amy. After he took the orders of the first 10 customers, he strode into the kitchen quickly and started cooking.
Although Yabemiya was still a little nervous and couldn’t even speak fluently, she tried to smile and began taking orders.
The door opened with a “ding”.
“Welco—”The sight of Sargeras startled her before she could finish her words. He held an iron chair in his hand, his head bald, skin covered with lava cracks; he looked very frightening.
Sargeras was also taken aback by this unfamiliar face. Seeing that he had scared her, he became a little nervous. He waved his hand quickly. “Don’t be frightened. I’m just a demon.”
