"This must be a long story to tell, right?"
"I know, right? There's so much fillings in such a small mooncake; I can't even imagine what it's going to be like."
"And it's so ugly; it doesn't deserve to be called a mooncake!"
The fact that there were five different fillings in a single mooncake immediately stunned everyone present. Many people turned their attention to the small mooncake in Harrison's hand, and they made no attempt to hide their disdain and superiority.
The people behind Harrison also wore concerned expressions as they looked at Meg, who was responsible for distributing the five kernel mooncakes. They felt that Meg's food was most likely going to be quite delicious, but the fact that there were five different flavors of nuts in such a small mooncake was definitely going to be very strange no matter how they thought about it. Some of the people at the back of the line were even preparing to move to a different location.
"This is a unique existence in the mooncake world, the five kernel mooncake. It may be filled with five different types of nuts, but when they're combined together, they'll exude a special charm." Meg looked at the mooncake in Harrison's hand with a peculiar expression on his face. He then turned to Harrison with a smile, and said, "Now, please describe your feelings after eating the five kernel mooncake, Mr. Harrison."
Harrison took another large bite of the mooncake in his hand before chewing carefully. An expression of enjoyment appeared on his chubby face, and he only swallowed after a long while. He then opened his eyes with an elated expression, and said, "Even though it was a little strange that all of the flavors were mixed together in the first bite, I discovered that all of the nuts had been roasted to an extremely crisp state. The aroma of all of the nuts was very unique, and they were even more fragrant and crispy than the ones I've had in the past. What was even more amazing was that after chewing carefully, the five different flavors of nuts fused together perfectly, creating a brand new flavor that complemented the crispy skin of the mooncake perfectly. After swallowing, my entire mouth was filled with the aroma of the nuts."
"Mooncake, I'll choose the five kernel mooncake! Isn't Mr. Mak's greatest talent the ability to break conventions? "Harrison yelled in an excited manner as he waved his arm toward the five kernel mooncake team.
The people who were about to switch teams all stayed back after hearing Harrison's words. They looked at Meg with confidence. He was indeed the best at breaking the rules. Such a strange food might be able to bring them unparalleled enjoyment. After all, someone had already tested it for them, and the results seemed pretty good.
"Five kernel mooncakes are the scum of mooncakes!"
"That's right, that's not a pure mooncake at all!"
"There should only be two types of mooncakes, five kernel mooncakes and other types of mooncakes!"
The competition between the customers for the flavor of the mooncake had somehow turned into the supporters of the other flavors joining forces to attack the five kernel mooncake.
"History is always astonishingly similar. The five kernel mooncake is indeed an oddity that people both love and hate." Meg shook his head with a smile, but he didn't intend to stop them. The tofu pudding competition had already instilled in the customers a good sense of self-restraint, and they wouldn't fight over the taste of the tofu pudding.
Everyone quarreled in harmony, and it actually had a good effect on the atmosphere. It was as if most people were participating in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Sargeras strode over to Meg with a smile, and said, "Mr. Mak, I'll take all of the mooncakes from the Burning Legion."
"Alright, looks like we've had a very fruitful hunt today." Meg smiled as he placed 12 mooncakes in Sargeras' large hands. He then took a glance at Kiel and the others, who were standing behind Sargeras with large bags in their hands. Their bags were all filled with food, and it seemed that they had just returned from a hunt.
"Yeah, we caught a lot of good guys today. We came back a little late because we were worried that we wouldn't make it in time for Mr. Mak's opening hours, so we didn't go to the guild to turn in our missions. I didn't think that Mr. Mak would be holding a banquet today, so it looks like we won't be able to eat roujiamo today." Sargeras gave a bashful smile. His voice was a little forlorn, but he wasn't complaining in the slightest.
"Thank you for your hard work." Meg nodded at Sargeras and the demons of the Burning Legion. In order to feed the entire Burning Legion with roujiamo, these demons had been risking their lives in the wilderness every day. They were the most valiant warriors of the Burning Legion.
"It's good to be able to eat Mr. Mak's mooncakes. Come to think of it, I haven't been home for hundreds of years. I'll eat mooncakes here today, look at the moon, and miss the Lava Land," Sargeras said with a smile. He strode over to the side with the mooncakes in his hands. The other members of the Burning Legion all smiled at Meg before following Sargeras to the side.
Meg continued to distribute mooncakes to the customers, and he couldn't help but smile at the sight of all of the smiling faces.
Right at this moment, a limping figure strode over to Meg, and extended a hand toward him. "Two five-nut mooncakes."
This was a pair of hands that were riddled with calluses. The calluses on the palms and the edges of the fingers had been formed from wielding a saber. Every saber wielder would have such calluses on their hands.
Meg faltered slightly upon hearing this voice, and he looked up at the man standing before him. He had a square face with a scar running down the corner of his left eye, and he was also looking back at him.
It's him! Waves of shock surged through Meg's heart. This man held an extremely important place in Meg's memory. Following the incident over three years ago, it was also this man who had escorted him all the way from Rodu to Chaos City, and had also bought this place for him.
There was only one person on the Norland Continent who knew about Meg Alex's whereabouts, and that was the man standing before him — Louis North.
"Please enjoy." Meg forcibly repressed his surging emotions, and gently placed the two mooncakes into Louis's hands with a smile.
"I will." A smile also appeared on Louis's face, and he accepted the mooncakes before limping toward the back of the line. A faint smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, It's him.
A hint of sympathy welled up in Meg's heart as he looked at Louis's departing figure. At the same time, he also began to raise his guard.
He had sensed some gazes just then, and one of those gazes most likely belonged to Louis. As for the others, he couldn't quite put his finger on them.
If those people in Rodu suspected that he wasn't dead, then perhaps some of them would try to track him down through Louis. In that case, he would be in an extremely perilous situation.
Louis was in contact with a three-year-old half-elf father, and that was enough to make a lot of connections.
Meg had initially thought that the situation was still under control, but in that instant, it seemed to have been pulled to the brink of collapse.
