Camilla took a deep look at Meg. She had a feeling that there was a lot of hostility hidden under his kind and gentle smile.
"Could it be that you are afraid of octopuses?" Meg smiled at Camilla. "If that's the case, then forget it."
"Afraid?" Camilla laughed scornfully. "I am a countess, a 9th-tier powerhouse. Why would I be afraid of a little octopus? Isn't it just an octopus? I am going to eat it today! "
"You have a backbone." Meg gave her a thumbs up in admiration. He really admired people who could say such insincere words for the sake of their pride.
"Hmph." Camilla snorted with an uncomfortable expression.
She regretted it the moment she said that.
She was very scared.
But now, she had to wait for the stir-fried octopus tentacles to be served for the sake of her pride, and she even had to eat it herself.
Meg and the rest were busy preparing in the kitchen.
There was already a long queue outside the restaurant. The restaurant was closed for two days, and they were going to release two new dishes this afternoon. Hence, many customers were looking forward to trying the new dishes this afternoon.
And among the customers in the queue, there were some powerhouses from various races who had yet to go home.
Although the celebratory banquet at the city lord's castle last night was sumptuous, the taste could not be compared to Mamy's at all. Hence, they were not in a hurry to go home, and were prepared to have a good meal at Mamy's before leaving.
Although Mamy's followed the principle of first come, first served, the residents of Chaos City were very grateful to the powerhouses from various races who had rushed over to help during Chaos City's crisis. Hence, after a round of modesty, the powerhouses from various races all came to the front of the queue.
"The residents of Chaos City are indeed a little different," Louis lamented.
"Indeed. If it were any other place, no one would dare to come up for a meal when they see us old fellows standing here. No one would dare to make us stand in the queue for a meal," Douglas said with a cold expression.
"What's the big deal about queuing? As masters, we have to queue every day." Crassus rolled his eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that Crassus and Julian were at the front of the line, they might not have been able to wait in line.
However, the owner's culinary skills were superb, so it wasn't too bad to line up for a meal. After all, there were already more than ten Level 10 experts lining up.
"What new product is this? Are they octopus tentacles?" Louis noticed the small blackboard hanging on the door, and was surprised.
Hearing this, everyone looked over and their expressions suddenly became a little strange.
For the past two days, their hearts had been broken by the octopus monster. Whenever they thought of its gigantic body that was hundreds of meters tall and those octopus tentacles that were covered with scarlet eyeballs, they felt a chill run down their spines and their stomachs churn.
Coincidentally, the boss had released a new dish made from octopus tentacles today.
"What? Are you scared? "Crassus turned around and chuckled at Louis and the rest. There was a hint of mockery in his smile.
"It's just tentacles. What's there to be scared of?" Louis said nonchalantly, but his fingers couldn't help but tremble.
Hearing Crassus' words, the powerhouses who were about to leave immediately stopped in their tracks. No matter what, they couldn't let anyone see that they were scared.
"Then, do you want to order two servings to try later?" Crassus stared at Louis with a faint smile.
"Since it's a new product, of course we have to try it." Louis nodded matter-of-factly without even frowning.
"Hehe, then let's share a table later." Crassus laughed. "We haven't drunk together in a while. Let's have a few drinks today."
"Old man Jie isn't a good person." Louis glanced at Crassus from the corner of his eyes, and then looked at Douglas and Julian. "Douglas, Julian, you two come and have a few drinks too. After all, the four of us had a fight in the past. Today, let's try the taste of octopus tentacles together. We've been through thick and thin together."
"I can drink the alcohol. As for the octopus tentacles, I'll pass." Douglas' eyelids twitched. "I'm allergic to seafood."
"You're almost 2,000 years old. How can you be allergic to seafood? Even if you're allergic, can you have red dots? "Louis rolled his eyes.
"I'm not eating it." Julian's answer was even more simple and direct. He rejected coldly, and had no intention of discussing it at all.
"Can that thing really be eaten? Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps all over my body. " Dracula was also in the crowd now. He patted the goosebumps off his hands with a look of disdain. "I'd rather die than eat that thing."
A few powerhouses from the orcs and dwarves at the side nodded in agreement. They had already made up their minds to stay away from Louis's table later.
The big shots from the various races standing in the front row were awe-inspiring and admirable. And in the line, there were two beauties who were rather eye-catching.
One of them was Miss Gloria, who often came to the restaurant for meals. The news of her becoming the only successor of Family Moreton had already spread throughout Chaos City's business world. She had already become someone who could stand on par with Miss Hill.
And she was only 18 years old. Her beauty after removing her veil was even more stunning. Admiring such a beauty was also an eye-pleasing thing.
However, her limelight today was mostly stolen by the young lady in the other line who was almost beside her.
That young lady had long golden hair that reached her waist. Her exquisite face did not lose out to Gloria's at all. Her bright golden eyes were filled with confidence, and her graceful figure made even women want to take a few more glances at her.
The young lady glanced at Gloria from the corner of her eyes without batting an eyelid. The corners of her lips curled up slightly with an indecipherable deep meaning.
…
The preparations for business were already in place, and the staff's meal was already served.
Everyone took their seats, and waited quietly for Meg to serve the last dish — stir-fried octopus tentacles.
Camilla sat uneasily, and kept glancing in the direction of the kitchen. She was conflicted between leaving and staying.
In the kitchen, Meg tossed the wok skillfully. The octopus tentacles, green and red peppers danced in the flames, and the warm aroma wafted over.
He turned off the fire, and took it out of the wok.
He placed the brightly-colored stir-fried octopus tentacles on a white porcelain plate. There was no need to add any decorations, and it already looked alluring.
The octopus tentacles that were cut into about three centimeters long were mixed together with green peppers, red peppers, and purple onions. They were stained with a layer of alluring brown sauce, and completely lost the scary appearance of the original green and red tentacles.
"As expected of me. I can even make the Great Old One so alluring!" Meg picked up the plate and walked out of the kitchen. The freshness of the octopus tentacles had already begun to blossom wantonly. Moreover, compared to normal octopus tentacles, the freshness of this octopus tentacle was even more conspicuous. It was an irresistible smell.
Meg smiled as he placed the stir-fried octopus tentacles on the empty seat in front of Camilla. "Alright, the dishes are ready. Let's dig in."
