Chapter 1877: Flying Restaurant
The three of them had a sumptuous supper.
They were taking it as celebrating Amy winning the Magic Caster Tournament
Of course, they were going to celebrate for Amy again when she returned tomorrow.
It was indeed beyond Mag’s expectations that Amy could advance all the way, and finally win the Magic Caster Tournament.
As for her becoming an advanced magic caster, it even made him feel a little ashamed as her dad.
If he hadn’t had all kinds of amazing encounters, squeezing every tiny bit out from the system, he would have become Amy’s protectee.
Meanwhile, that poor little thing in the past had become the most eye-catching champion now. It made him feel gratified and proud.
Mag put his wine glass, and said to Irina, “Tomorrow is our off day. Let’s go out for a vacation as a family after Amy comes back.”
Irina popped a piece of fish into her mouth, and casually asked, “Where are we going?”
“We have been to the seaside, snow mountain, and grassland…” Mag murmured. He couldn’t think of anywhere interesting to go at that moment.
“Why don’t we go to the Firefly Valley? Amy and Annie would like it,” Irina suggested. “At this time of the year, the fireflies should have come out under Dragon Island.”
“Alright. We’ll do as you said.” Mag nodded. The land under Dragon Island was an unexplored area. There were many interesting places hidden there. It was indeed worth making a trip.
After eating supper and washing up, Mag lay down on his bed. The system’s voice sounded as soon as Mag closed his eyes.
“Ding!
“Congratulations, Host. You’ve received the title of “Gourmet Enlightener”. The number of gourmet believers: 3652!
“Given that the Host has taken one big step in changing the Norland Continent’s food and beverage industry, you have triggered the system’s hidden reward: the recipe of Mapo Tofu[1]!
“The restaurant’s current level and the Host’s power have a great discrepancy, and the restaurant has plenty of upgrade points. Do you want to spend 10,000,000 points to upgrade the restaurant?”
“Gourmet Enlightener? This title sounds good.” Mag nodded. Those 3000 believers should’ve been obtained during the on-the-spot teaching today. It was only one day, so this influence was already rather good.
However, Mag cared more about the Mapo Tofu’s recipe reward. This was one of his favorite Sichuan Cuisine dishes. The spicy and refreshing Mapo Tofu was an excellent dish to eat with rice. Mag felt that giving away two dishes but getting the Mapo Tofu in return was completely worth it.
Mag was also rather interested in upgrading the restaurant.
“What upgrades can we do to the restaurant for 10,000,000 points?” Mag asked. It had already been months since the last restaurant’s upgrade.
“With 10,000,000 points, you can upgrade the restaurant into a flying fortress. The restaurant will receive the complete flight movement ability, and its speed can reach Mach 1. The restaurant will also receive a level nine anti-strike ability,” the system replied.
Mach 1 was even faster than a commercial flight cruising speed. Although it couldn’t compete with a modern-day fighter jet, it was already very over the top for a restaurant.
A restaurant that could fly was naturally full of gimmicks.
To Mag, the existence of Mamy Restaurant had already elevated from the initial stage of survival to the stage of ideals—bringing scrumptious food to the Norland Continent.
The ice cream shop and Mana Hot Pot Restaurant were extensions of Mamy Restaurant.
When he was fighting with that octopus monster in that underground cavern, and almost died in the tribulation lightning, his deepest and biggest regret was that he hadn’t watched Amy grow up, bringing her to see the different parts of this world and experience different ways of life.
Although Mamy Restaurant was already the name card of Chaos City, it was only famous in a small circle. Its influence couldn’t even compare to the pancakes that could be found everywhere on the street.
This was incongruent with his God of Cookery’s ideal to bring changes to this world’s delicacies, and let more people have a chance to try scrumptious food.
The live-stream tutorial at the Delicacy Extravaganza today was a kind of new attempt for him. The effect was not bad, but its influence still wasn’t enough.
But now, the restaurant gaining the ability to fly seemed to have given wings to his thoughts.
Why restrict himself to one city?
The world was so big, so why not bring the restaurant out to take a look?
Although it was comfortable to let the Mamy Restaurant’s regular customers enjoy the familiar and constantly tasty food daily, his experience and culinary skills could hardly improve in this manner.
“System, you said you want to make me the God of Cookery, but how am I going to become the God of Cookery? If it is just polishing my culinary skills, then my level should have already exceeded the vast majority of the chefs, right?” Mag asked inwardly.
The 10th-tier was already the end of a knight’s cultivation path. He had already been through the test of tribulation lightning with the octopus monster’s help, and entered into the realm of the demigods. However, he was still just a demigod.
He had already reached the end of this path. It was obviously very difficult for him to become a god through cultivation as it had already involved the level of gods.
Hence, what he wanted to know now was whether the God of Cookery that the system talked about was a real god, or it was simply the highest form of flattery for the culinary skills.
“The Host has indeed displayed a very serious and enthusiastic attitude for culinary skills in the past few months. Your culinary skills have also exited the novice’s level, and you have gradually developed your own style. You’re already not far from being a real chef.
“To become a God of Cookery, cultivating culinary skills alone isn’t enough. You have to walk the path of becoming a god of a religion. The believers that the system has collected today are the seeds. They will soon contribute endless religious points to the Host.
“The Host has inherited the Earth’s delicacies. You should make appropriate modifications specifically for this world, and make them food that the people in this world would like. You should promote them, and make more people of this alternate world become your believers!
“The power of religion that is constantly accumulated will become the Host’s foundation, and eventually make you the one and only God of Cookery in this world!” the system replied gravely.
“You mean that the more believers I have, the stronger I will be?” Mag pondered. This was similar to the ideals of the common religions, and it was more suitable for the relatively weaker chef.
According to this theory, his cultivation path as a knight had already reached the end, but he had only just taken the first step on his path to become the God of Cookery?
“How many believers are needed approximately to become the God of Cookery?” Mag asked probingly.
“The Host will need to accumulate two billion believers to become the God of Cookery through the power of religion!” the system quickly answered.
“How many?”
“Two billion.”
“Are you crazy, System?! The Roth Empire only has four billion humans, and there are only eight billion if we add up all the intelligent races on the Norland Continent. You want me to accumulate two billion believers?
“Have you lost your mind?!”
Mag rolled his eyes.
“There’s no internet in this world, and I cannot do a live-stream… Even if I go streaking every day, there’s no way I can collect so many believers!”
“There are always more solutions than problems. The best way to face a problem is to solve it! Go for it, fighting!”
The system’s positive voice appeared in Mag’s mind.
[1] Mapo Tofu is a popular Chinese dish from Sichuan province. It consists of tofu set in a spicy sauce, typically a thin, oily bright red suspension, and is based on douban (fermented broad bean and chili paste) and douchi (fermented black beans), along with minced meat, traditionally beef. Variations exist with other ingredients such as water chestnuts, onions, other vegetables, or wood ear fungus. One account indicates that the dish existed as early as in 1254, in a suburb of Chengdu, the capital city of Sichuan Province.
