This morning, the first customer the restaurant welcomed was Michael.
Meg had just come downstairs when the bell rang.
"The city lord is here so early. The restaurant isn't open yet." Meg opened the door with a smile.
"You should know why I'm here to disturb Mr Mak so early." Michael also smiled at Meg. "Aren't you going to invite me in?"
"Please come in." Meg stepped aside and closed the door after Michael entered.
"I'm sure Mr Mak has heard about what happened to the elves. What do you think?" Michael went straight to the point and asked Meg.
Meg knew that Michael had already guessed his identity, but he was a smart person. If he didn't point it out, everyone would continue to act.
"I don't have a clue yet, but it shouldn't have anything to do with the Great Old Ones," Meg said.
He wasn't going to tell a third party about the underground city for the time being. After all, they hadn't completely fallen out yet. Meg was still waiting for the attitude of the person behind Xi.
There couldn't be only one voice in a world.
They painstakingly isolated the two worlds from each other, completely hid the underground city, and captured people who crossed the border. This meant that their ruler probably didn't want the two worlds to collide and interact.
"The death of the elven queen and Helena is a huge shock to all the races, but we know nothing about our opponent." Michael looked at Meg. "If it's not the Great Old Ones, then who has such powerful abilities?"
"There might be some powerful existences that we don't know about on the Norland Continent, such as the sealed Great Old Ones or the hidden powerhouses," Meg said frankly. "Of course, those who can be killed don't deserve to be called the Great Old Ones."
Michael's eyelids twitched. He was a little worried about the fate of the races on the Norland Continent.
However, Mag made it sound so easy. Although that monster was killed by him with a single slash, its terrifying power of fighting the elven powerhouses alone, and even causing the queen and the high priest to die of exhaustion still made all the other races wary.
Meg's strength had already exceeded the range of Level 10, and should be included in the legendary God Realm.
However, there was no such expert among the various races.
If such a powerful monster appeared in the territories of the various races again, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Don't look at me, I'm just a chef. I just made the tofu pudding. Do you want some?" Meg's voice drifted out from the kitchen.
"Please make an exception and pack one for me. My wife said that she hasn't had tofu pudding in a few days, and she was still complaining to me yesterday," Michael said with a pleading smile as he stood at the entrance of the kitchen.
Meg looked at him and pondered. "How fast are you?"
"In three minutes." Michael patted his chest.
"Then you still have to be careful. Normally, a normal man can last for more than three minutes." Meg looked at Michael sympathetically. "You can come to the restaurant more often to eat 'Buddha jumps over the wall'. It's very nutritious."
Meg still packed two servings of tofu pudding for Michael, one sweet and one savory. He also brought his young mistress' share along.
"There's no use in rushing things like this. Everything has to be done slowly," Meg said earnestly as he patted Michael's shoulder.
Michael looked at Meg. He felt that there was a hidden meaning in his words, but he couldn't understand it.
"Thanks." Michael took out a dragon coin and placed it on the table. He took the initiative to pack three bowls of congee with pork and century egg before leaving satisfactorily.
Meg knew that Michael was indeed very fast. He was able to send these two servings of tofu pudding back to the manor in the best time to eat it. This was much better than a certain group.
As for what Michael said earlier, it was also within his expectations.
The various races had yet to escape from the shadow of the Great Old Ones, and now the sudden deaths of the Elven Queen and Helena happened. This kind of unknown and powerful existence was often even more terrifying.
Irina came downstairs in her tulle pajamas. Her long and smooth legs were faintly visible under the skirt. "What did that woman say when she came yesterday?"
"Ah … You didn't sleep last night?" Meg felt a little guilty.
Irina pulled out a chair, and sat opposite Meg with her fair legs crossed. She sneered with a hint of mockery. "Heh heh. She got me drunk and then hooked up with other women behind my back. Wasn't that satisfying?"
"First of all, you got drunk yourself. There's no such thing as getting drunk!
Secondly, I wasn't hooking up with other women. It was a necessary social interaction for work!
Lastly, it wasn't satisfying at all!
I fought monsters in the day and had to be careful of the Soul Trainer at night. I had to prepare a table full of dishes to entertain clients in the middle of the night. After sending the clients away, I had to clean up the table. After that, I had to stay up all night to do the relationship chart. I had to wake up early in the morning to cook and prepare to open for business … "
The more Meg spoke, the more he felt wronged.
All this suffering, all this tiredness, for who?
Irina stared at Meg for a while and was unmoved. Instead, she said faintly, "Why? Do you want me to praise you?"
"That's not necessary. That woman came yesterday to ask for something. I gave her half and told her to get someone in charge to take the remaining half. Her words don't count." Meg immediately changed his attitude.
"Aren't you worried that they'll gather a few Gods to kill you first?"
"If they don't mind the Buried City being completely exposed, they can try." Meg smiled with some confidence.
"What if this mech was sent by them?"
"We can only take a gamble now. The Buried City isn't a monolithic block and the power behind Xi just happens to be at odds with the power behind this mech monster." Meg said casually, "If we win the gamble, we might have another friend. If we lose, we can only fight with our lives on the line."
"How confident are you?"
"Eighty percent."
"Hmm?"
"If the power behind Xi is the mech operator, she wouldn't have come last night. The normal scenario would be two Extraordinaires descending from the sky and completely destroying Mamy's."
Irina fell into deep thought. With her intelligent mind, she quickly figured out the reason behind it.
"So, you took a gamble with us last night?"
"I borrowed that trident from Lil 'Guai and placed it on the roof. It can more or less avoid lightning, so it's not like we have no chance of winning," Meg said frankly.
He didn't sleep last night. Other than reading, he was also somewhat vigilant.
"What do you want for breakfast?" Meg asked with a smile.
"Congee with pork and century egg and tofu pudding," Irina said without hesitation.
"Sob sob sob …"
A baby's cry came from upstairs.
Meg and Irina looked at each other and fell into silence.
"You have experience. You go," Irina said.
"You brought it back. Shouldn't you go?" Meg tried to shirk the responsibility.
"Little Yayi, be a good girl. Don't cry. Auntie will bring you downstairs to eat." Gina's gentle voice sounded at the stairs along with the sound of footsteps.
