Chapter 1907: Gentle Assassin

The moon stone, which was very smooth, was a little like jade. It was cool to touch, and would glow on its own, which made it very fantastical. It was more well-liked by the usual gold, silver, and other gemstones.

“It’s so pretty. I want to make it into a pendant. It looks just like a teardrop. How beautiful,” Annie said with a smile as she held a small moon stone in her hands.

“Polish this up a little. I want to make it into a moon stone ring. It looks better than a jade ring,” Yabemiya said equally happily after choosing a round moon stone.

“You guys actually like this stone so much?” Babla looked at everyone with a strange expression.

“Babla, this moon stone must be very precious, right?” Firis asked Babla shyly.

“Er… I just grabbed a handful of them from the garden before I left. This kind of stone is just one of those that could be found everywhere at our place.” Babla shrugged. She looked at everyone, who was in disbelief, and continued, “I don’t know that you guys would actually like this. If I’d known, I would have gotten them to choose a few better-looking ones.”

“Rare things are more precious. This moon stone is of better quality than most jades, and it can even give off its own glow. With a little polishing, it could become a rather good piece of jewelry. However, as there is a lot of it on the moon, it became worthless there.” Mag smiled as he picked up a piece of moon stone. “However, you can’t find this on the Norland Continent. As long as we tag it as imported from the moon, we will definitely be able to fetch a high price.”

“Why don’t we sell stones? We’ll transport the worthless moon stones on the moon to Chaos City to sell. We’ll definitely be able to earn a lot of money,” Amy suggested as her eyes lit up.

Mag looked at Amy with admiration. This little fellow’s brain turned really fast. She had the potential to become a rich businessman at such a young age.

“Would people really want them?” Babla was still rather uncertain. There really was a lot of this stone in Moon Nation. Their floors would usually be laid with mega-sized moon stones, and the quality of those was much better compared to these small stones.

“Next time you go back to Moon Nation, bring as many of them as you can. I can guarantee that everything will be sold out. We’ll split profits equally between ourselves,” Mag said with a smile. The jewelry field was one where one could profit up to hundreds and thousands of folds, especially for the moon stone, with such high quality and low costs. If he did not profit that much, he would even be embarrassed to say that he was selling jewelry.

“Alright. In that case, I’ll choose the best decorative stones next time, and fill up my space magic ring.” Babla nodded excitedly.

She was not lacking money, but enjoyed making money.

“Right, you have to let me know in advance if anyone from the Moon Nation is going to be teleported over. Otherwise, I would feel a lack of security if people keep teleporting to the restaurant. Besides, I’ve already gotten people to set up some defensive spell formation in the restaurant. If they appear out of nowhere, they might get injured accidentally.”

Mag did not want to keep seeing people teleported over with a table on their heads like Babla did today.

On top of that, the restaurant did have a 9th-tier defense capability. If someone from the Moon Nation suddenly teleported over, and started engaging in a fight with the restaurant, it would be a mess.

Babla thought for a while, and replied, “Alright. However, it’s rather troublesome to keep activating the teleportation portal. Why don’t we set a time every month? That way, the restaurant’s business would not be affected as well.”

“That’ll do too.” Mag thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.

The most valuable part of Mamy Restaurant right now was not the land that it was on, but rather that it was on the ancient teleportation portal that linked the Moon Nation and Norland Continent. This effectively meant that the restaurant was like customs to both sides.

If Babla was not the princess of the Moon Nation, Mag would just mark up the price straight away, and make everyone who wanted to use this teleportation portal pay an entrance fee. That would be a faster money-making method than running a restaurant.

Right now, both parties were still in their initial exchange stages. Besides, the Norland Continent needed the Moon Nation’s help to seal the Great Old Ones. He naturally wouldn’t do something like that.

However, if both parties were to open up a travel project to the moon, Mag would be more than willing to earn some money from those wealthy people who wanted to go up.

“How long do you intend to stay this time?” Mag asked. Now that the passageway to Moon Nation had been cleared, Babla could return home anytime.

“I’m back to work. I’ll stay… until the restaurant closes,” Babla said matter-of-factly.

“As long as I don’t close down the restaurant, Mamy Restaurant will never be closed.” Mag pressed his lips together. He looked at Babla with bewilderment, and asked, “Aren’t you happy being a princess? Why did you come back to be a service staff member?”

“What’s so rare about being a princess? We have so many princesses there. I went back for a few days, and it was indeed boring to be a princess. Working is better. This place is really good. I love it here.” Babla shook her head.

“Alright, whatever floats your boat.” Mag raised his brow. It seemed like times had indeed changed. Working had become the new in thing.

Babla’s return meant that the manpower shortage in Mamy Restaurant was relieved.

With her spatial magic powers, Babla was the cornerstone of the restaurant in terms of serving food. She could send the dishes to the customers very efficiently.

Tonight’s dinner was quite a feast. Mag prepared it specially to welcome Babla back. Therefore, they had to start half an hour earlier compared to their usual meal time.

***

Outside the restaurant, a line began to form.

Among the people in the line was a large man dressed in black. His hat was pressed down very low, and he was hanging his head low as he spoke softly to the middle-aged man standing in front of him in the line. He asked, “Chief Editor Garlan, do you think anyone can recognize me like this?”

The bald man who was addressed as chief editor turned to glance at the man in black, chuckled, and said, “Mylo, those who know you could still recognize you with one glance. Those who don’t know you won’t even take a second glance at you, much less recognize you.”

“That’s terrible!” Mylo was stunned. He looked left and right cautiously.

“This is Chaos City. You’ve never been here before, nor have you exposed any of the restaurants here. You don’t have to be worried about getting beaten up,” Garlan said with a smile.

Garlan was the chief editor of the gourmet magazine?Perfect Food. The magazine was one of the most influential gourmet magazines on the Norland Continent, but it had not been doing well recently.

Meatatarianism?and?Vegetarianism?had been breaking the records for two to three months in a row. This had become normal, and their tens of thousands of sales thrashed?Perfect Food?completely.

And the reason for the sales of?Meatatarianism?and?Vegetarianism?to surge in these two to three months was one restaurant, which was Mamy Restaurant, right in front of them now.

Both magazines’ new publications for the past two months had at least one article related to Mamy Restaurant. With that, their sales shot up, and even many who did not have the habit of reading magazines subscribed to them.

Perfect Food?was not willing to be a sitting duck after lagging behind by so much.

Therefore, Garlan brought his best writer from?Perfect Food, the gentle assassin, Mylo, here.

He wanted to break all the lies made by?Vegetarianism?and?Meatatarianism. How could such an outstanding restaurant appear in a place lacking delicacies like Chaos City?

Perfect Food?would be using an article that would be 100% truthful to pull this restaurant down from the pedestal and thrash those two shameless magazines!
