Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

There was a series of white stone pillars, upon which were carved intricate designs. The building itself had a dome roof, with the main color scheme comprised of white and gray. The metal gates at its entrance were wide open, and the words “City Lord’s Castle” had been carved above the gates in a universal language used on the continent.

This was Mag’s first time visiting the city lord’s castle. Last time, Dicus had come to him regarding the outdoor dining area, so he had never had the need to visit the city lord’s castle.

As soon as Mag entered through the gates, a familiar voice sounded from behind him. “Boss Mag? Why have you come to the city lord’s castle? Do you need some help with something?”

Mag turned around with a smile, and replied, “Hello there, Mr. Dicus. I’m here to claim a restaurant today, and I need to visit the Aden Square management center to take care of some documents.”

“Taking over a restaurant? Are you already planning to open a new branch?” Dicus was rather taken aback.

“Not at the moment. What happened was that yesterday, a restaurant owner...” Mag shook his head with a smile before giving Dicus a brief account of what had happened the night before. Dicus was an official of the city lord’s castle, so if Mag could secure his help, the process of claiming the restaurant would be significantly simplified.

“Who would have thought that someone would dare to challenge Boss Mag to a cooking contest? His courage is certainly commendable.” Dicus chuckled as he pointed to the gates of the city lord’s castle, and said, “Seeing as both parties have signed an agreement and there were so many witnesses at the scene, the restaurant’s ownership rights do indeed belong to you now. Come with me, I’ll take you through the required procedures. You’ll have to pay a small administration fee.”

“Thank you.” Mag nodded as he followed Dicus into the city lord’s castle.

The buildings within the city lord’s castle were constructed in a way that was completely symmetrical from left to right. Many of the workers and officials of the city lord’s castle entered and exited the building on the left, while the buildings on the right were a lot quieter.

“The buildings on the left contain the departments that deal with daily matters taking place in Chaos City. They have to process many things every day, so they’re always quite busy. The buildings on the right house the departments that are responsible for deploying patrols around Chaos City, so you’ll notice that it’s a lot more peaceful over there,” Dicus explained.

“I see. Which department do you belong to in the city lord’s castle, Mr. Dicus?” Mag asked.

“I’m currently in the secretary department of the city lord’s castle, so in reality, I’m just a guy who runs errands,” Dicus replied with a smile.

“Many people would love to run errands for the city lord’s castle.” Mag chuckled as he surveyed Dicus through a renewed perspective. He didn’t know too much about the political structure of the city lord’s castle, but it was quite clear that this Mr. Dicus wasn’t just an ordinary errand boy.

Dicus led Mag to an office that had a sign which read “Aden Square management center”. Within it were about a dozen or so workers wearing uniforms of the city lord’s castle. A professional-looking middle-aged man rose to his feet with a smile on his face at the sight of Dicus, and asked, “Mr. Dicus, what can I do for you today?”.

“I’m just showing Mr. Mag the way here. He needs to transfer a restaurant that he won in a contest to his name. Please give him a hand, Mr. Leed. The conference between the dragons and demons was held at Mr. Mag’s restaurant last time,” Dicus explained with a smile.

A hint of surprise appeared in Leed’s eyes as he turned to Mag, and said, “I see. Please take a seat, Mr. Mag, our management center will be sure to assist you to the best of our ability. Seeing as you won the restaurant in the contest, may I ask if you brought the agreement along with you?”

“I did; here it is.” Mag nodded as he produced the agreement which had been signed by both Ricky and himself.

Leed was even more surprised after reading through the contents of the agreement, but he still filed it away carefully. He turned to Mag with a smile, and said, “Alright, thank you for bringing this copy of the agreement to me. We’ll be verifying the authenticity of the agreement as well as the contest, then conduct a valuation of the restaurant before informing you of the results. You’ll only need to pay a small administration fee before the ownership rights are transferred to your name.”

“Alright, thank you for your help.” Mag nodded in response. He didn’t think that the process would be so simple, and it came as a pleasant surprise to him. After all, his time was far more valuable than an administration fee.

“You’re welcome. We’ll be getting into contact with you soon,” Leed said with a smile.

After exiting the management center, Dicus turned to Mag, and asked, “I went to visit Principal Hydle this morning, and he told me that some new developments have been made in the steam engine that he’s working on. I have to go and inform the city lord of this good news. Is there anything else you would like my help with, Mr. Mag?”

“That’s all I came here for today. Thank you for your assistance, Mr. Dicus.” Mag shook his head in response. He hadn’t seen Hydle for a while, so he didn’t know what new developments had been made. This was not necessarily good news for him, as it could force him to accelerate the implementation of his plan. After pondering the issue momentarily, Mag asked, “By the way, I’m a little curious about how the city lord’s castle processed the issue regarding the families of the deceased miners. Would you be able to reveal any details to me, Mr. Dicus?”

“I almost forgot that you were one of the people on the scene when the incident took place. Not only that, but you played an instrumental role during the process. As such, of course I can inform you of the recent developments.” Dicus put on a serious expression as he replied, “The city lord’s castle has funded a project to upgrade the living conditions of the families of the deceased miners, and that project is nearing completion. The living conditions of those families will be improved significantly as a result. At the same time, the city lord’s castle had launched a thorough investigation into the compensation that was withheld from the families and issued those payments again, making sure that the money reached the designated targets this time. All of the children at suitable age in that area were given an opportunity to study at Chaos School, and all of the corrupt officials involved in the case have been detained. They are going to face severe punishment for their actions.”

“I trust that the city lord’s castle will give all of the families a fair result.” Mag nodded in response. These changes were undoubtedly going to completely change the lives of those families, and they showed the sincerity of the city lord’s castle on this matter.

“The city lord once said that if more nosy people like Mr. Mag existed in this world, then Chaos City would be sure to become a better place.” Dicus chuckled.

“I hope to never encounter an incident like this ever again. After all, this is Chaos City, is it not?” Mag shook his head as he bade farewell to Dicus before departing.

Dicus looked on at Mag’s departing figure and smiled as he murmured to himself, “The city lord was right. He is indeed a very interesting

man.”
