Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

Mag stood behind Sally and Yabemiya with two plates of fried rice in his hands, and faced off against Warren. The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly seemed to have coagulated a little.

The removal of Mamy Restaurant from the rankings board had drawn ire from all of its customers, but Boss Mag was most likely the most enraged one.

Even though he was still his usual smiling self, and didn’t display any negative emotions in front of his customers, one would assume that he was still harboring animosity toward the president of the Catering Association.

However, as expected of Mag, he was completely different from other restaurant owners. Under normal circumstances, a restaurant owner would definitely try to curry favor with the president at the expense of his employees so that he could get his restaurant back on the rankings board.

However, Mag wasn’t doing that. He was going to back his staff until the very end, and it didn’t matter to him that he was facing the president of the Catering Association.

Is Boss Mag going to have a showdown with them?

The same thought appeared in everyone’s mind. If Boss Mag was going to stand up for the restaurant, then they were all prepared to back him up. After all, everyone was still fuming about how the restaurant had been removed from the rankings.

“That’s right, the laws of Chaos City take priority above all else.” Warren looked at Mag with a fake smile, and his narrow eyes narrowed even further as he replied, “However, unspoken rules have to be respected as well. Regardless of whether you opened your restaurant late or not, you should abide by those rules.”

“That makes sense. After all, all rules should be respected, but if those rules were made more clear and transparent, they would be more worthy of respect and acknowledgment.” Mag looked at Warren, and smile also faded from his face as he said, “President Warren, I’m not sure if you’ve heard about how Mamy Restaurant was removed from the Aden Square food competition rankings today. If the true purpose of the rankings board really is to help customers find delicious food, then according to those rules, our restaurant should be very high on the rankings board, so why was it removed for no reason? If possible, I would like a reasonable explanation from you. Your tickets are very expensive, and I bought tens of thousands of them, only for you to disqualify me from the rankings. That’s not a very proper thing to do.”

Mag had seen a portrait of Warren in the documents from the detective agency. Even though the portrait was a little different from the actual person, there was no mistaking his fat face and the mole on his glabella.

The one standing behind him was clearly one of his colleagues. Judging from his bulging stomach, he was most likely a high-ranking official in the Catering Association as well.

Mag was a little surprised that these two would come to dine at his restaurant after removing him from the rankings just this morning. It was quite easy to deduce that they clearly didn’t harbor any good intentions.

He was concerned that there would be nowhere for him to press his case, so seeing as these two had arrived on his doorstep, he was going to discuss things with them out in the open. All of the customers present were his witnesses, and this was his home court.

All of the customers stirred upon hearing Mag’s words. Mag had cut straight to the chase, and wasn’t worried about offending anyone at all. However, his words also echoed the confusion and rage in everyone’s hearts. They were all waiting for an official explanation from the Catering Association.

“What are you trying to say? All of the other restaurants have remained in the rankings board, and yours was the only one that was removed; do you not know why?” Tonis was a little vexed because of Mag’s surly demeanor.

He was the one who had instigated the incident by questioning Yabemiya’s service credentials, but he didn’t see Mag as someone that was worthy of as much as second glance. He was enraged by the fact that Mag was airing doubts about the Catering Association’s integrity, and he immediately tried to strike back.

“If our restaurant was removed from the rankings board because two of our dishes made it into the top 30, four made it into the top 50, and all five made it into the top 100, thereby taking too many spots, then I have nothing to say.” Mag turned to Tonis with a mocking smile, and retorted, “You must be from the Catering Association as well, right? Even though you don’t have a uniform, your figure certainly fits the bill, so you’re quite easy to identify.”

“Hahaha!”

“I suddenly understand why Amy talks like that—she inherited it from her father!”

“The moral of the story is: don’t mess with Boss Mag, or you’ll get hurt by his sharp tongue!”

All of the customers burst into laughter upon hearing Mag’s words. They had only seen his friendly and benevolent side, so they didn’t think that he could be so savage with his words!

“You, you, you...” Tonis’ fat cheeks trembled with rage. He was used to having restaurant owners suck up to him, so he didn’t know how to respond to such scathing mockery.

“As the Catering Association of Chaos City, our employees will inevitably have to sample a lot of delicious cuisine as part of their jobs. Only after tasting the food for ourselves can we endorse it to our customers. That is the heart and soul of the Aden Square food competition. After sampling all that delicious food, our bodies have inevitably become like this. I’ve never been ashamed of my portly figure. I believe it is a manifestation of the responsibility placed on all employees of the Catering Association. It is the heart of the Catering Association.” Warren looked at Mag with a serious expression and immediately turned the tables on him, claiming the moral high ground in the process.

Mag’s eyes gradually lit up as he looked at Warren. In comparison to Tonis, who was useless in a war of words, Warren was a genius.

Through his response, he was able to attribute his obesity to a sense of responsibility, instantly turning the tides in their war of words. Mag had rarely ever encountered such a formidable adversary in a war of words in the past.

Mag smiled, and said, “Your portly figure may be a manifestation of your heart, but too much fat can cause a series of cardiovascular diseases. When that time comes, you’ll indeed be able to feel your heart.”

“Our Catering Association’s promise to everyone is that we won’t miss out on any delicious food. For that mission, all of the Catering Association’s employees, including myself, are willing to do whatever it takes, even if it means sacrificing our health and our lives.” A smile also appeared on Warren’s face as he said, “The decision to remove your restaurant from the rankings board was made by me. We received many reports and complaints from restaurants and customers alike, so we decided to remove your restaurant in accordance with our rule and regulations. Tonight, Vice President Tonis and I have come here to fulfill our promise of not missing out on any delicious food, so we’re here purely to dine. However, it appears that you don’t welcome us.”

I call bullsh*t! Mag chuckled coldly in his heart. It certainly was through no luck that this guy was able to maintain the Aden Square food competition for so long. All of the barbed insults thrown at him were completely nullified, and Mag was unable to press the issue any further.

However, if they had come for a meal, then that was what they were going to get.

“Of course we welcome you. We welcome all paying customers. Please wait for a moment until some seats open up. I have to get back to the kitchen, so I’ll be taking my leave now,” Mag said with a smile, and emphasized the words “paying customers”. He then delivered the two plates of fried rice to their designated tables before going back into his kitchen.
