“Did you hear? A massive crackdown happened at the Catering Association today. I saw a bunch of officials from the city lord’s castle entering and exiting the building this morning, and even the main gate has been locked.”

“I also saw that, but it appears that everything went back to normal in the afternoon. Could it be that even the city lord’s castle is going to stand up for Mamy Restaurant now?”

“If you ask me, the investigation should have been launched long ago. I’ve never eaten at any restaurant from the Aden Square food competition rankings in the past two years. Every time I’ve tried, I’ve been thoroughly disappointed; those rankings are completely pointless.”

The customers lining up outside Mamy Restaurant all discussed spiritedly among themselves. Many of them had seen what had happened to the Catering Association in the morning.

Could it be that the city lord really liked my grilled fish last night, so he decided to investigate the Catering Association? But I didn’t get a chance to say anything last night... Mag had also heard the news, and even though he didn’t know what had happened, he was still feeling a sense of gloating satisfaction with the ordeal that the Catering Association had suffered.

However, Mag was aware that unless the city lord wanted to tear down and rebuild the Catering Association, he would most likely only give them a stern warning, and nothing would really change after that.

As for whether Mamy Restaurant would make it back onto the rankings board or not, he wasn’t very optimistic. After all, if a massive reform really were to take place, no one would care enough about Mamy Restaurant to reinstate it on the rankings board. Mag wasn’t narcissistic enough to believe that the entire world revolved around his restaurant.

“Boss, are we having grilled fish tonight?” Yabemiya stood at the entrance to the kitchen, and looked at Mag with anticipation in her eyes.

“That’s right, we’ll have medium spice grilled fish tonight.” Mag nodded with a smile. He wanted to try the super spicy grilled fish, but he was worried that Sally would be unable to handle it. In any case, the medium spice flavor was already quite good, so he felt like it was the best option.

Hmm? Why are there so many people lined up here? Vivian was surprised by the long line waiting outside Mamy Restaurant.

She had changed into a loose-fitting navy blue shirt today. Last time, the strapping around her chest had ripped open, causing a very awkward situation. In order to avoid suffering the same embarrassment again, she had come well prepared, and she was going to order a super spicy grilled fish!

With so many people in the line, how long will I have to wait? I was the one who alerted Father to the quality of this restaurant. All of those fatsos have been detained, but I still have to wait in line? Vivian was grumbling internally, but before she knew it, she already found herself at the back of the line. She pursed her lips, and thought to herself, So be it. Seeing as their spicy grilled fish is so delicious, I’ll line up. Otherwise, I would never be willing to stand behind so many people!

She had finally had a good night of sleep the day before, and woke up at 9am this morning. It was such a wonderful feeling. She had already forgotten how long it had been since she had slept so well and woken up naturally rather than being roused by her pain.

All of that could be attributed to the spicy grilled fish that she had eaten the day before. As such, she had changed into male attire, and come to dine on the dish again. However, on this occasion, she had come out through the front door rather than jump over the wall.

No! I can’t! I really can’t eat it today! Nearby, Schonard shook his head vigorously, but his legs were taking him involuntarily toward Mamy Restaurant. Furthermore, his gait was a little peculiar. His two legs were spread quite wide, and he walked like a crab with a reluctant expression on his face.

Stop! Stop right now! If I eat that again today, my a*shole really will explode! No, no, no... The insanely spicy grilled fish is not to be messed with!

Schonard forced himself to stop, and a pained expression appeared on his face as he turned to leave. However, he hadn’t even taken two steps when he turned back around again. He looked up at the restaurant’s sign with an enraptured expression, and he was caught momentarily in an internal conflict before gritting his teeth, and joining the line of customers. Screw it! I’d rather die than not eat such delicious grilled fish today. As long as I don’t order the insanely spicy level, I should be ok, right?

It’s that annoying guy again. Is he stalking me? Heh, my father approved of my coming here today, so if that guy tries to blackmail me, I’ll teach him a lesson! I haven’t touched a sword in many years, but I should be able to take care of a pervert like him with no issue. A hint of disdain appeared Vivian’s face as she caught sight of Schonard. She clenched her fists tightly, and prepared to lash out at a moment’s notice.

Many customers still remembered this rich boy who had tried to reserve the entire restaurant the night prior. He had ordered an insanely spicy grilled fish the day before, and his head smoked like a chimney as he dined on the dish. Looking at his abnormal gait and peculiar expression, they knew that the insanely spicy level was indeed not something to be messed with.

Schonard had been quite distracted the entire day. All he could think about was the spicy grilled fish, and as he joined the line, he didn’t even notice Vivian.

He’s not even taking a single glance at me! Vivian had prepared herself for battle, so she was a little disappointed upon seeing that. However, she certainly wasn’t going to pick a fight with Schonard herself. Thus, she was a little bored as she looked around her, and then she discovered a curious phenomenon—why had all the customers split up into two lines?

She raised the question to the elderly man that was standing in front of her in the line.

“This must be your first time here at Mamy Restaurant, right?” The elderly man was quite benevolent, and he smiled as he replied, “To explain why the customers of the restaurant have split themselves into two lines, I have to tell you about a delicious dish known as tofu pudding...”

Vivian listened with intrigue as the elderly man recounted how two 10th-tier magic casters had engaged in a fierce battle over a bowl of tofu pudding. Following that was the establishment of the sweet and savory factions, which resulted in the two lines.

“Is the tofu pudding really that delicious?” Vivian was a little skeptical. She had actually ordered a tofu pudding the night before, but the fish was too large, so she canceled the order, and didn’t get to taste the tofu pudding. After hearing the elderly man’s story, she was getting quite curious about the dish.

“Of course. Let me tell you about the savory tofu pudding: it’s refreshingly delicious, and can prime your stomach before a good meal. It’s an exquisite dish that is not to be missed.” The elderly man strongly advocated for the savory tofu pudding.

“Don’t listen to him. The tofu pudding is sweet, yet not overwhelmingly so, and it’s the perfect dessert after a good meal.” A middle-aged man from the other line immediately stated his objection.

“Then... I can just get one of each, and I’ll know which one is better after I taste them for myself.” Vivian felt like there was an easy solution.

“You can if Mag is willing to sell you two.” Both of them rolled their eyes in unison, and didn’t say anything more.

Hmph, it’s not like I don’t have money; why wouldn’t he sell them to me? Vivian pursed her lips. She wasn’t concerned in the slightest.

“Welcome.” Mag opened the restaurant door with a smile. The newly released strength had increased store profits significantly once again, and he had already saved up enough to purchase a second strength point. Furthermore, it appeared to be time to upgrade the restaurant again as well.
