Chapter 1752 - When Everything Is Over, Let’s Continue Running Our Restaurant

The Thunderstorm Mountains, in the underground cave.

"Things are looking bad. Judging from our current progress, it'll be very difficult for us to interpret the entire spell formation runes before the seal loses effectiveness completely, much less enhance and reseal it." Novan sighed dispiritedly.

Babla sighed dispiritedly, and relentlessly said, "It's just a few characters on the runes. Can't we enhance the basics first?"

"A spell formation is a whole. If you cannot completely interpret a spell formation, and then repair and enhance it as a whole, any changes made to it might cause the spell formation to collapse." Novan shook his head. "This spell formation is way more complicated than most of the spell formations today. It's not something we could tweak easily."

"Chi, chi…"

The Great Old One started laughing in a low tone, as though it was mocking their futile efforts.

"Don't be too smug. If my master was here, he could seal you back up any time. You wouldn't even have a say in it!" Babla howled at the octopus monster with frustration.

"The racial meeting will be tomorrow. Michael has decided to let the representatives come over personally to take a look at the octopus monster so that they would give up the thought of starting a war, and stand together against the devil that might break out of its seal in various parts of the Norland Continent." Novan looked at the octopus monster within the seal, and solemnly said, "This might be a war more brutal than the racial war."

"I do want to see how those fellows will react when they see this big fellow. It'll definitely be very interesting," Krassu said with a smile, and without much worry.

"If there's no progress tomorrow, I will be going back to give Little Amy makeup lessons," Urien said calmly.

"Hm?" Krassu turned back to look at Urien. He squinted, and said, "You want to give Amy makeup classes secretly?"

"Not only am I going to give her makeup classes, I'm going to leave her with homework. Little Amy's ice magic should be able to break through the 7th-tier now," Urien said calmly.

"Wow, that's too much! We have the same disciple. To let Amy have a happy childhood, I've never given her any homework, but you actually gave her homework secretly!" Krassu confronted.

"Xixi must have been doing a good job teaching the theory classes as a relief teacher," Urien continued to say calmly.

"You even found a relief teacher?!" Krassu stomped towards the entrance of the cave.

"Grandpa Krassu, where are you going so late at night?" Babla asked.

"I'm going to give Little Amy makeup classes!" Krassu said without even turning back.

"According to Little Amy's habits, she should already be sleeping. Don't tell me you're going to wake her up from her sleep to give her makeup classes?" Babla asked with a smile.

"Don't blame me for being too much if you dare to disturb my disciple's sleep," Urien said coldly.

Krassu paused in his steps. He hesitated for a while before walking back. "I am not afraid of you. I just want Little Amy to learn happily. However, an obedient disciple who is passionate about learning just like Little Amy will definitely learn her fire magic well even if I don't give her homework."

"I don't want to learn. I just want to eat, eat, eat and play, play, play all day! Besides, I can stargaze with Father and Mother. The holidays are fabulous… I love holidays…" Amy mumbled in her sleep as she rested in Mag's and Irina's arms.

"Looks like our little scholar likes winter holidays without homework too," Mag said with a smile as he tucked Amy in.

Irina looked at him with a smile, and softly said, "When everything is over, let's continue running the restaurant."

Mag looked at the gentleness reflecting in her deep blue eyes with a gentle smile, and said, "Do you like being a lady boss?"

"I think it's pretty good to be a lady boss who just collects money compared to an elven queen." Irina nodded her head seriously.

"I think it's pretty good to be a boss too." Mag nodded with a smile.

"Are you there?"

Josh stood by the window, and looked out to the northwestern side. His eyes were glowing with a devilish red.

The shadow under the moonlight squirmed to slowly form a skull as it said in an enchanting voice, "As long as you release it, you shall receive unlimited power!"

"I will make a trip over when tomorrow's event is done." Josh nodded slightly. His smile slowly became skewed. "I will become the most powerful person in the Norland Continent! I want to destroy Alex and make Irina come back to me!"

"As long as you get our help, even the giant dragons will have to bow down to you…"

After the heartwarming night, Mag got up from bed gently, and looked at the two who were sound asleep in bed. He tucked them in and tip-toed out.

Today was supposed to be the restaurant's off day, but he had already promised City Lord Michael to use the restaurant as the venue for the racial meeting. Therefore, he still had to get up early to do the preparatory work.

Usually, only the breakfast menu would be available in the morning. However, to satisfy the various representatives today, Mag decided to include everything except Buddha jumps over the wall into the menu, including hotpot and barbecue.

After washing up, Mag stepped out of the bathroom in his chef's suit, and bumped into Gina, who suddenly appeared at the door.

Gina stumbled, and subconsciously used her leg to hook onto Mag.

Luckily, Mag reacted fast, and while he reached out to hold her shoulder, he tilted a little to the side to steer away from that long leg.

"Boss." Gina stabilized herself and rubbed her forehead, which knocked into Mag's chest. Her tender fair face flushed red. Boss looks so handsome every morning when he wakes up.

"Gina, why are you up so early?" Mag asked with a smile as he let go of her.

Gina came back to her senses, and quickly said, "Boss, I have something to tell you."

"Is it regarding Lantisde's representative team?"

"Yes. Last night, the high priest sent the little fish to contact me. He will be leading the Lantisde representative team personally to join the meeting. However, they did not receive an official invitation, so he didn't know what would be a suitable time for them to appear," Gina said with a nod.

"Have they already arrived at Chaos City?"

"Yes. They arrived last night. However, the high priest said that they should not disturb your rest, so they did not come to meet you."

Mag thought for a while, and said, "Tell them to wait near the restaurant. I will give them the notice to come in at an appropriate time."

"Alright." Gina nodded before heading back to her room.

Mag knew that the merfolks had a special way of transmitting information, so he did not really care too much.

Ding!

Just as Mag put on his apron, the doorbell rang.

"Who's here so early?" Mag went to the door. Firis and Camilla would not be coming today, and the rest would not usually come over so early.
