Chapter 1516: Good Person Card +1
Mamy Restaurant rushed to open for service. It was fortunate that Yabemiya and the gang all returned shortly, and swiftly got back to their work to allow the restaurant to barely continue with the service.
“How is Rena?” Mag found a chance to ask Miya.
“Rena was traumatized, but she has already settled down. We’ve sent her back to the hostel. Her mother is taking care of her, so we came back to the restaurant,” Miya said.
“That’s good.” Mag nodded. Today’s events would be difficult for Rena to digest; it would be better to let her mother take care of her.
Due to the lack of hot pot and many dishes, the restaurant’s ability to receive customers was lowered dramatically.
However, the customers surprisingly didn’t complain too much. Instead, they began to try dishes that they had never tried before, and then they discovered all kinds of new delicacies.
“Mmm. This batch of customers are very good.” Mag nodded with satisfaction as he tossed the six woks around one by one. The fried rice and steaks were tossing around as helpings of delicacies were sent out one after another.

“Child, tell me, what happened today?” Clarince softly asked as she sat on the bed and hugged Rena gently.
“It’s nothing. I just bumped into a small hooligan, but Boss and my colleagues resolved the issue for me.” Rena shook her head, and then rested her head on her mother’s legs. She closed her eyes to sense the warm touch on her neck and on the back of her head.
Clarince lowered her head with an uneasy expression to softly ask Rena, “Does it have something to do with that precious gift that day?”
Rena didn’t look right since she had returned home last night.
“Mm-hmm.” Rena nodded. She opened her eyes and smiled at her mother. “He’s just a useless hooligan, and was already arrested by the Gray Temple. Boss said he will never be released for the rest of his life. We will never have to worry about him again.”
“Good. It’s good that he was arrested.” Clarince also smiled with relief after hearing that. She had been worried for the whole day yesterday. She always felt the fellow who sent the gifts that night wasn’t a good person. She was worried that Rena would get hurt.
“Boss and my colleagues protected me. We will never have to worry again, because the restaurant is really very powerful.” Rena nodded. She sat up, and solemnly said to Clarince, “I will also get stronger so I can protect Mother.”
Clarince smilingly patted her head, and consoled, “Silly child. As long as you can protect yourself, that will be fulfilling my greatest wish.”
“Oh, yes. Yesterday, the boss said he was officially making me the supervisor of the designated hot pot area. I will be in charge of everything in the Mamy Restaurant’s hot pot area. He even raised my monthly salary to 20,000 copper coins a month,” Rena said with a smile.
“20,000 copper points!” Clarince’s voice rose up a few notches, and she stared at Rena with disbelief. “So much money per month?!”
“Yes. Boss increased everybody’s salary to 20,000 copper coins. He will continue to give us a pay raise every year.” Rena nodded with conviction. She couldn’t hide the joy on her face. She wasn’t in the mood to contemplate the pay raise previously. After thinking about it carefully today, 20,000 copper coins was a huge sum to her. It was almost equal to a year of her previous salary.
“Isn’t it too much? You have just started working there for less than two months, and Boss is already letting us stay at such a nice place and providing us with food,” Clarince said with concern.
“Mm-hmm. I also think it was a little too much.” Rena nodded too before saying, “However, Boss said the restaurant’s profits were very good, so he decided to increase our salaries.”
“Boss Mag is really a very good person. Meeting him is your good fortune.” Clarince sighed.
“Yes.” Rena nodded gently. She blushed a little when she recalled how she threw herself into Boss’s warm arms and cried.

“‘Good Person Card’ +1!”
“Hmm?” Mag listened to the reminder tone that appeared in his mind puzzledly. This wasn’t as pleasant-sounding as the reminder tone of the three dollars that was checked into his Alipay.
However, he had to admit that he was indeed a good person.
“Come. Give this super insanely spicy grilled fish to that orc gentleman who was seducing his lady over there.” Mag gave a freshly done grilled fish with extra ingredients to Miya.
“I need to go out for a while, and might be home a little late.” Irina appeared in the kitchen, and swiftly disappeared after finishing the steak.
“Hmm?” Before Mag could ask her, she had already disappeared. He couldn’t help complaining, “Where is she going in the middle of the night?”

480 km to the west of Chaos City was a place called Thunderstorm Mountains. It was covered in a dense forest that was filled with magic beasts and animals. It was off the beaten track.
What was the most amazing about this place was that thunder could be heard throughout the year there. Lightning was striking off branches every now and then. The lightning element was extremely irascible, so this place was named Thunderstorm Mountains.
The Thunderstorm Mountains were covered in snow after winter arrived. The thunderstorms died down, and they had a short respite of silence.
Meanwhile, in the deep part of the mountains, a gigantic crater that was over 500 meters in diameter and 10-odd meters deep suddenly appeared. All the trees around the crater seemed to be struck by lightning as they were all burnt, black and dead.
And right in the middle of the crater, there was a dark bottomless hole that was about two meters in diameter. It was so deep that even the moonlight seemed to be engulfed by it.
At that moment, two figures were crouching around that crater and looking in.
“Icy old man, can you see what is it? I seem to have sensed the presence of the evil spirit.” Krassu tossed a fireball into the crater, and it didn’t touch the bottom even as it fell all the way until it disappeared.
Urien, who was standing at the side, closed his eyes and pointed into the crater. Frost began to form at the opening, and then rapidly crept downward.
About three minutes later, Urien suddenly opened his eyes, violently retrieved his finger, and then took three steps back at the same time.
“Did you scare yourself?” Krassu looked at Urien doubtfully before looking down into the hole again.
Boom!
An explosion sounded in the deep crater, and a powerful black airflow gushed out of the deep crater together with countless icicles and shattered ice.
“Holy f*ck!”
Krassu also quickly took a big step back, and stared at that black airflow that gushed upward to the sky and then exploded into countless icicles. He angrily said,” Icy old man, did you do that on purpose?!”
“It’s the evil spirit’s aura. That evil spirit that was subdued under these Thunderstorm Mountains seemed to have got itself out of a part of the seal. That’s why it could release its aura to attract its subordinates and descendants,” Urien replied in a hoarse voice.
Krassu spat after hearing that. He angrily stared at the black airflow that lingered for a long time in the sky. “These old fogeys that won’t die or disappear are really so irritating.”
