1993: A Hidden Mission: Open A Famous Tavern!

A Hidden Mission: Open A Famous Tavern!

Mag was neither a pervert nor a stalker, but this world was too messed up. He was worried that Elizabeth would be in danger alone in the outside world. They wouldn't know where to look for her if she disappeared like her father one day.2

This ring had a GPS tracking function and a crisis status alert function.

The former was to locate Elizabeth when they needed to look for her. The latter was for him to receive an alert if Elizabeth was in a dangerous situation so that he could get there in time to save her life.

Mag turned around, and walked into the restaurant as he thought, Elizabeth left, and the Holy See came looking for us. Why don't I bring Amy out to play for a period of time?

Mag was about to close the door when a sharp whistle sounded, and a letter flew over from afar. It flew in through the door's crack, and Mag caught it.

Mag flicked a glance at the Gray Temple's wax seal before closing the door, and opening the envelope.

After a while, Mag put down the letter that was delivered urgently by the Gray Temple at night, and his expression changed slightly.

A golden light flashed in the restaurant, and Irina, who just returned, looked at Mag's grave expression, and asked, "What's the matter? Did something happen?"

"News from the Gray Temple. Some of the military's senior courtiers were attacked. Their entire families were massacred and then burnt." Mag passed the letter to Irina.

Irina skimmed through it before looking up at Mag. "Is this the orcs' revenge? Or is Josh creating trouble again?"

"Auster almost lost his home this time. He most probably didn't have the guts to go to Rodu to kill and burn. Apparently, the pro-war faction of the orcs is rapidly shrinking now, and more and more people are joining Connie's pro-peace faction. They cannot even take care of their own problems, so they definitely aren't going to intensify the contradictions right now," Mag said with a grave expression. "It's either Andre trying to find an excuse to start the war, or Josh deliberately creating trouble by exacerbating the situation."

Irina put down the secret missive, and shook her head. "The giant dragons and the Peace Alliance's joint statement should have arrived at Rodu by now. I don't think Andre would risk getting attacked by all the races by continuing his plans to start a war. That is unbearable to the Roth Empire."

Mag looked at Irina, and said, "Seems like we need to make a trip to Rodu. I decided to close the restaurant for a month, and bring Amy and Annie to Rodu to look for Josh."

"Then, can I be the lady boss again?" Irina looked at Mag smilingly. "The kind that manages the money."

"If you are willing to, I don't mind setting up a small tavern at Rodu." Mag nodded smilingly.

"It's not good to go undercover every day with children. It's easy to move about with a proper identity. I think it's feasible."

"Alright. We'll set off tomorrow. I'll go pack up." Mag nodded. He already had a rough plan for this Rodu trip.

"Ding! A sudden event has triggered a hidden mission: open a famous tavern! Could the Host please open a tavern famous with the alcohol connoisseur in Rodu, and become the most famous tavern in Rodu!

"Mission advance reward: one recipe of the secret drunkard peanuts and one recipe of the pig ears salad have been released!

"As the mission proceeds, more rewards will be given!

"Congratulations for taking the first step to expand the restaurant, Host!"

Just then, the system's voice rang in Mag's head.

Looking at the two gleaming recipe experience bags in his mind, Mag was slightly taken aback.

"System, you have changed!

"You actually learned how to give a mission advance reward?!

"Excellent, maintain this!"

Drunkard peanuts and pig ears salad were two great dishes that went well with alcoholic drinks. They were a perfect match with the tavern.

Selling alcoholic drinks was, of course, the most important aspect of a tavern.

Mag didn't want to open another Mamy Restaurant. He wanted the customers to love the tavern because of its alcoholic drinks, and not because of the dishes, so he wanted the drinks to be the main focus.

Were two dishes too little?

No, it was already more than enough.

Irina asked Mag, "Oh, yes, help me analyze this. Protests and a movement to burn the slave contracts have exploded in the Wind Forest in the past two days, but Helena didn't do anything to stop this movement. She isn't being her usual self. What do you think she is thinking?"

After pondering briefly, Mag said, "There are two possibilities. The first is that Helena has already realized her direction and policy are wrong, and she decided to rectify her mistakes. She is going to be a good person from now on, and slowly turn the policy around.

"The second is that Helena deliberately loosened the policy, and allowed all the rebels to show themselves before she would give them a deadly strike and eliminate all opposing voices once and for all."

"Helena isn't that kind of person who will turn over a new leaf. I know very well how stubborn that old woman is. She's never going to admit that she was wrong." Irina shook her head with a frown, and said, "Then, she's most probably going to go after those protesters after the movement dies down a little."

"What she's going to do isn't important. What's important is what the Night Elves are going to do. In these times of upheaval, most of the elves are starting to lean towards the Night Elves emotionally. What's the most important is if we can expand the Night Elves quickly, and even topple Helena's ruling system," Mag said.

Irina was thoughtful. As she walked to the staircase, she said, "I'll go write a letter."

Mag didn't rush to go upstairs. He still had many things to do tonight.

Closing Mamy Restaurant for one month was unprecedented since it had been open for business. The customers would definitely be in uproar.

He also had to consider how to arrange the employees' leaves.

Mana Hot Pot Restaurant had already become many hot pot lovers' favorite, and could replace the customers' need for hot pot.

Miya's ice cream shop had become another children's wonderland. The ice cream shop could operate all day long when Mamy Restaurant was closed.

During the period that the Mamy Restaurant was closed, Mag intended to give all the employees a long break. If they didn't have anywhere to go, they could stay at the ice cream shop or help out at Mana Hot Pot Restaurant.

The restaurant would be closed, but it wouldn't be sealed completely. After all, it was the entrance to the only teleportation portal between the Moon Nation and the Norland Continent.

Mag prepared to leave a set of keys to Babla and Yabemiya each. First, it was to allow the Moon Nation's people to come and go; second, it was to allow them to enter Mamy Restaurant if they encountered an unexpected situation. Mamy Restaurant had a 9th-tier defensive ability now. Usual attacks couldn't threaten the people in the restaurant at all.

Mag took out the notice board from the back of the counter, and wrote a notice of a business break.

The reason was very proper. "Bringing the children out for a vacation and searching for ingredients during their term break. Be back in a month!"

Then, Mag took out a photostone, and went into the kitchen.

Early on the next morning, before any customers came to line up, Mag already hung the notice onto the door.

Then, Mag hung a giant screen at the door, and began to play the cooking tutorials in a loop.
