Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant Chapter 731 - Your Acting Skills are Rather Shoddy

Chapter 731 Your Acting Skills are Rather Shoddy

The crowd parted once again to reveal a lavish unicorn-drawn carriage. There was a man in a set of luxurious blue and purple robes disembarking from the carriage, and he wore a cold expression on his face.
“It’s the second prince!”
A surprised yell erupted from within the crowd, creating quite stir among the bystanders.
“Did I hear that right? The prince is saying that this man is the most powerful spatial magic caster on the continent, and that that chef will be cooking for the king on his birthday?”
“Does that mean the roast beef we had today was cooked by a royal chef?! I can brag about this for an entire year!”
“Only a year? Heck, I’ll be bragging about this for the rest of my life!”
The entire crowd had erupted into a frenzy upon hearing Josh’s proclamation.
“W… W…” Sinclair stared at Mag with wide eyes, unable to articulate his emotions with his limited vocabulary. This was like if a man were living in a slum and someone asked to stay in their house for a night, only for them to wake up the next time morning and tell the owner of the house that he was the king.
For a chef like him, a man that could cook for the king was the king among all chefs.
He didn’t know how to react anymore.
This was truly a day that was filled with surprises.
After hearing Josh’s words, Ike’s face immediately paled as his legs gave out under him, and he collapsed to his knees.
He turned his gaze toward the calm and collected Mag, and couldn’t comprehend why a chef who was good enough to cook for the king would make a bet with him for the sake of these lowly commoners. Was he doing this as a practical joke?
This is bullying!
Ike was struck by the urge to burst into tears. He looked on as Josh approached him from his carriage, and a sense of horror began to well up in his heart.
There was a great magic caster present, as well as a chef who was going to cook for the king. These two were both countless times more important than him, and he couldn’t think of any way to weasel his way out of this situation.
Why is he here? A slightly urgent look appeared in Mag’s eyes as he turned his gaze toward Irina, only to find that she was already nowhere to be found, and he heaved an internal sigh of relief.
He didn’t know whether Irina had already guessed his and Amy’s identity, but he could tell from her actions that she didn’t really trust Josh, either. From the information that he had gathered, he knew that Irina and Josh had once shared a close friendship, and he was glad to see that this was no longer the case.
Irina stood in front of the window of an obscure booth as she murmured to herself, “Josh, what have you done behind my back? If I find out that you played a role in that incident three years ago, I will kill you with my own two hands!”
Mag withdrew his gaze and turned to Josh, and then directed his attention to the trembling Ike. It appeared that this rotisserie most likely had something to do with Josh. Could it be that he was the true owner of the rotisserie?
“Your Highness…” Ike was sprawled to the ground, not daring to raise his head.
“Principal Novan, I didn’t think that you’d have arrived in Rodu already. I was going to pay you a visit and ask you some questions about my magic, so I’m glad to see you here.” Josh completely ignored Ike as he strode toward Novan and extended a student’s salute. He then turned to Ike with a cold expression, and condemned, “For this filthy swine’s display of insolence, I’m going to banish him from Rodu forever!”
Ike’s expression changed drastically as he kowtowed over and over again while pleading, “Your Highness… Please forgive me, Your Highness…”
“There’s no need for that, Your Highness. He did indeed overstep his boundaries, but his crimes aren’t punishable by banishment. If you banish him from Rodu, he and his entire family would be cast into grave danger outside these city walls. That would be a tragedy.” Novan looked at Ike and shook his head with a sympathetic expression as he said, “Boss Mag cooked roast meat for five hours straight here just so he could remove the sign plastered on the doors of this rotisserie. If you can get rid of all of the signs of this nature on the entire food street, you’ll be vindicating Boss Mag’s efforts, and I’m sure all of the commoners will thank you for it.”
“You’re as kind as always, Principal Nova. However, this swine has insulted Mr. Mag in an extremely atrocious manner; what would you like to do with him, Mr. Mag?” Josh turned his gaze toward Mag.
A hint of elation jade had just appeared in Ike’s eyes, but it was instantly replaced by despair. He knew just how much he had offended Mag, so there was no way that Mag would let him off the hook.
“He is indeed quite a detestable character.” Mag picked up a chair and swung it directly into Ike’s face. The chair was cracked slightly by the impact amid before it was tossed aside. Mag then turned to Josh with a smile, and continued, “However, I’ve also vented my rage now. It’s just as Principal Novan has suggested: if you can eradicate all of the signs on this entire food street, it’ll obviously be much more effective than if I were to go around tearing signs off one by one.”
As expected, striking someone with a chair really was very satisfying!
The woozy Ike’s eyes immediately lit up as a spark of hope lit up in his heart once again. Even though his face was stinging with pain, his heart was filled with joy.
Josh glanced at the chair, which had remained largely unscathed, and he smiled as he said, “You’re also quite a kind man, Mr. Mag. In that case, I’ll make the decision here and now to eradicate the customer restrictions imposed by the restaurants on this food street. From now on, noble-exclusive restaurants will cease to exist.”
“Long live the prince!”
A burst of cheers immediately erupted from the crowd.
This was a victory for all commoners!
Josh also wore a smile on his face. He had just won a lot of support from the citizens of Rodu without actually doing much at all.
“As for this swine, he doesn’t deserve to be a chef. Even if I don’t banish you from Rodu, you’re prohibited from working as a chef in a restaurant,” Josh said as he glared coldly at Ike.
“Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness…” Ike kowtowed once again. He was extremely fortunate to even be able to able to remain in Rodu.
“I’ve only just run off to the toilet for a bit, but it appears that many things have happened during that time. Did our second prince do something praiseworthy again?” A voice tinged with a hint of mockery sounded as Krassu approached with Amy from behind them. He turned to Novan with a smile, and asked, “Glad to see you here; care for a drink?”
“Master Krassu.” Josh extended a respectful salute before turning to Amy with a surprised smile as he remarked, “So Mr. Mag’s daughter is Master Krassu’s new disciple.”
“Do you really expect me to think that you didn’t know about this in advance? Your acting skills are rather shoddy, Josh. If you don’t have anything useful to say, I have to take everyone out for drinks now.” Krassu gave a dismissive wave before turning to leave.
“Looks like I still won’t get the opportunity to have a drink with Master Krassu and Principal Novan. I hope you all enjoy yourselves.” Josh was not enraged in the slightest by Krassu’s dismissal as he turned to Mag with a smile, and reminded, “I hope you won’t forget about the birthday banquet tomorrow, though, Mr. Mag.”
