Tonis glanced at Warren’s stern expression, and he immediately shuddered as he corrected himself. “The food is nothing special. If the spicy grilled fish is of the same standard as all of these other dishes, then this restaurant really is quite ordinary.”

“Heh, then why did you lick your plates clean just then?” All of the customers rolled their eyes upon hearing that. What a shameless bastard.

“Is he about to start causing trouble now? Are they still not going to allow Mamy Restaurant back onto the rankings board?” Some of the customers felt like Tonis’ reaction was a little abnormal.

“Ah, it’s so spicy, but so good! Someone get me a glass of ice water! I feel like I’m about to rise into the sky!”

Right at that moment, Schonard slammed his chopsticks down onto the table. His lips were completely swollen, making him appear as if he had grown a duck’s bill, and he was panting heavily. His clothes were drenched with sweat, and his face was completely flushed. Most of the white smoke wafting from the top of his head had disappeared, but he appeared to be in high spirits.

“Sorry, our restaurant doesn’t provide ice water.” Yabemiya made her way over to him, and she was also quite surprised at the sight of Schonard. He had come in looking like an arrogant, uncouth rich boy, but after finishing the insanely spicy grilled fish, he looked like a dead fish himself.

“What? No ice water?!” Schonard’s voice was a little hoarse. He felt as if his throat were on fire.

He had had just experienced the horror of having the insanely spicy grilled fish take over his body. It was so spicy that he felt as if he were about to die, but his mouth simply refused to stop. It was as if his body didn’t even belong to him anymore, and all he could think about was finishing the grilled fish. That was a very scary feeling.

His tongue and mouth were completely numb, and his body was boiling hot. Furthermore, what was a little distressing him was that his stomach was already churning. After consuming close to 10kg of that insanely spicy grilled fish, his a*shole was really going to hate him soon.

Schonard was feeling a little downcast, and he wanted some ice water to soothe his physical discomfort. Upon hearing Yabemiya’s words, he immediately flared with rage, and yelled, “Your grilled fish is way to spicy! And yet you don’t supply ice water? What kind of service is this?”

“Sorry, but you were the one who ordered the dish, and you chose the spice level. Our restaurant has never supplied ice water, and we have no plans of starting anytime soon.” Yabemiya was a little apologetic, but her demeanor was a lot more resolute as she rejected Schonard’s desperate pleas.

“Here are two dragon coins!” Schonard glanced at Yabemiya before slamming two dragon coins onto the table, and rushing out of the restaurant. There were still faint wisps of smoke rising from the top of his head.

He had come today to pursue Vivian, only to be thoroughly embarrassed in front of her. His digestive system was about to be in a world of pain, but the taste of the grilled fish was absolutely impeccable, so he couldn’t do anything aside from suppressing his rage and fleeing from the restaurant.

He learned a valuable life lesson that day: chefs were not to be messed with, especially when they were also the owner of the restaurant.

“Insanely spicy really isn’t something normal people can handle.” All of the customers who were aware of the context had smiles on their faces. All of them were glad that the arrogant rich boy had been taught a lesson.

Being a good person is a difficult skill. I hope he’s learned his lesson today. A smile also appeared on Mag’s face as he glanced at Tonis and Warren. He sliced up half of an insanely spicy chili pepper, and tossed it into the wok before pouring the vibrant red juices over the grilled fish.

You can lie about the other dishes, but some dishes don’t allow you to lie... unless you never taste them in the first place, Mag thought to himself as he put down his wok.

Tonis looked on at Schonard’s figure fleeing frantically with a worried expression before turning to Warren as he said, “President, should we change the spice level? It looks like that insanely spicy level will be a bit difficult to stomach.”

“Here’s your spicy grilled fish. Enjoy.”

As soon as Tonis finished his sentence, Yabemiya placed their spicy grilled fish in front of them. Its spicy aroma immediately swept toward them, and both of them instinctively closed their eyes in unison.

How could the spicy aroma be so strong? Surely no amount of chili peppers can create such a powerful scent! Tonis’ heart jolted with shock. When he saw Schonard eating the fish earlier, he thought that Schonard was merely exaggerating in his reaction. Only after catching a whiff of the grilled fish did he realize that his level of spiciness wasn’t like anything he had ever tasted before.

So they grilled the fish, then continued to braise it in spicy juices over a stove. I’ve never seen this type of cooking method before. Could it be that this is a brand-new cooking method that he invented? Warren quickly became accustomed to the spicy aroma, and he stared at the grilled fish before him with a hint of surprise on his face.

Mag had already given him too many surprises today. He had tasted all types of dishes in the Aden Square, and encountered many genius chefs, but none of could even hold a candle to Mag.

Warren had to admit that Mag was a brilliant genius.

I wonder what kind of flavor such a unique cooking method will produce, Warren thought to himself with curiosity in his heart. He enjoyed spicy food, but there was no spicy dish that had ever left a lasting impression on him. Hopefully, this dish would show him something different.

“No need; we’ll stick with this one.” Warren picked up his chopsticks, and dug into the succulent flesh of the fish.

“Yeah, it probably only looks a bit spicy, but isn’t actually ‘insanely’ spicy.” Warren had already picked up his chopsticks, so Tonis could only muster up his courage and do the same. After all, he was the one who had ordered the fish, so he had to see this through to the end. Both Warren and Tonis picked up a morsel of fish with their chopsticks before placing it into their mouths.

What?! How could there be such spicy chili peppers in this world?! No! These definitely aren’t normal chili peppers. This spicy flavor is so unique and delicious, I feel like all of the sweat glands in my entire body have been opened in an instant. Furthermore, the crispy fish skin and soft succulent flesh perfectly complement the spicy flavor. The spiciness is irresistible, and the sumptuous fish keeps the spiciness just within the consumer’s tolerance range. Warren swallowed his first mouthful of fish, and stared at the dish before him with incredulity in his eyes.

This feeling is like dancing on a knife edge, where peril and stimulation coexist. This is an addictive feeling! Warren’s chopsticks were already reaching for the fish, and he felt as if he had lost control over his hand.

It’s so spicy, but so delicious! I can’t stop! Tonis’ neatly combed hair immediately stood on ends, and he began to gasp for breath. However, he didn’t have the time to smooth down his hair, as he was too busy dining on the grilled fish in front of him.
