Kieran rushed back to Ai City through the night.
When he walked into the alleyway where Leaf Dining was, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The smell of mutton!
There wasn't a single bit of gamey smell.
All it had was the pure aroma of mutton.
Kieran was instantly refreshed.
The minotaur and horseman behind him were drooling.
"Is this our new home?"
This is great!
I like this place! "
The minotaur said.
"I like this place too.
It's better than I thought. "
The horseman showed a smile on his face.
"Try to imitate me!"
The minotaur argued out of instinct.
"You are the one imitating me!
"You shameless Tauren!"
The horseman retorted.
"What did you say?
You horseman who doesn't know how long you are! "
The minotaur didn't want to fall behind.
Kieran didn't have the time to care about the two followers anymore. He strode towards the restaurant's entrance, pushed the door open, and went in.
Starbeck, who was wearing an apron, stood behind the counter and smiled when he saw Kieran walk in.
"I'm back."
Kieran said naturally when he saw Starbeck's smile.
"Do you want to eat first or take a bath?
I've prepared a pot of mutton and hot water. "
Starbeck walked around the counter and took Kieran's coat, hanging it on the counter and his eyes were glued to Kieran.
As for the minotaur and horseman?
Starbeck saw them but he didn't care.
The monsters that followed Kieran into the restaurant, no matter how scary they were, were harmless.
Starbeck believed it without a doubt.
"Let's eat first."
Kieran said without hesitation.
"Em."
Starbeck nodded with a smile and went into the kitchen. A while later, a casserole pot was brought out.
Fragrant steam came out from the vent.
When Starbeck removed the lid, the aroma filled the entire restaurant.
The white and tender mutton was cut into crescent-shaped slices and placed into the pot.
Fresh green coriander, spring onion, and bright red chili were garnished with wolfberries on the lamb.
The thick soup, which was level with the lamb slices, was still bubbling and bubbling.
Kieran took a deep breath, took the spoon from Starbeck, and scooped a mouthful of soup.
Delicious!
When the tip of Kieran's tongue touched the broth, a light but not greasy taste began to spread on the tip of his tongue. Then, layers of coriander, shallot, cooking wine, fragrant leaves, star anise, pepper, and chili appeared.
It was not sudden.
Let nature take its course.
Especially one of the wolfberries.
It tasted sweet.
After a mouthful of soup, Kieran couldn't help but scoop another spoonful. This time, there was a piece of mutton mixed in.
The soft mutton was neither dry nor greasy. It was just the right amount of softness, and it whetted Kieran's appetite.
After wolfing down the mutton on the top layer of the casserole, all that was left was the long yam, radish, and vermicelli.
The long yam was soft and tender.
The radish was crispy.
The vermicelli retained its smoothness.
Without chopsticks, Kieran picked up the casserole and scooped all the food into his mouth.
When the first casserole was empty, Starbeck brought the second casserole over.
At the same time, two steamed buns appeared in his hand, and he passed them to the minotaur and horseman.
"The leftovers from the casserole, I made some mutton fat buns, if you don't mind …"
"Of course not!"
The minotaur and horseman took the buns, opened their mouths, and tossed them in.
When the buns were bitten open, the two monsters froze.
Delicious!
They had never tasted such delicious food before.
The two monsters ate most of their food raw, roasting it occasionally, but Starbeck's cooking instantly conquered their hearts.
"I swear this is the life I always wanted!
This is too beautiful! "
The minotaur and horseman said one after another.
The Elite Hound lying on the counter showed disdain on its face.
'What a bunch of inexperienced bastards!'
The Elite Hound climbed up, stretched its body and shook its fur. Then, it lowered its head and started to rub itself against Starbeck's leg.
It couldn't help but whimper.
"I didn't forget about you.
Wait for me. "
Starbeck smiled and returned to the kitchen.
A moment later, he brought out a pot of lamb crutches.
The meat and tendons of the lamb crutches instantly made the minotaur and horseman's eyes shine.
Although it was poured into the dog bowl, they didn't mind picking it up to eat!
The Elite Hound seemed to have sensed the minotaur and horseman's thoughts, turning around and baring its teeth at the two monsters. The other five Hounds also crawled out from the corner, staring at the minotaur and horseman like a tiger watching its prey.
The minotaur and horseman didn't care about the five Hounds that came after them.
However, when they looked at the Elite Hound, their faces looked heavy.
They could sense the difference in the nature of the Elite Hound.
But was it a reason for them to give up on food?
"Come and eat.
There's more buns, do you guys want more? "
While the minotaur and horseman were rubbing their palms, Starbeck called his guard dog and looked at the minotaur and horseman.
"Yes!"
The two monsters nodded repeatedly.
"Then sit here and wait for a while."
Starbeck said.
"Okay."
The two freaks immediately sat up straight and waited quietly like children in kindergarten.
Their wait wasn't in vain.
Starbeck came out with two big plates of buns.
The buns were stacked up like a small hill in front of the two monsters.
"You're welcome."
Starbeck smiled.
As a matter of fact, the two monsters didn't hold back either, they threw the buns into their mouths one after another.
Starbeck wasn't scared at all when he saw how fast the two monsters ate.
He was used to spending time with Kieran every day.
Therefore, Starbeck brought out two more plates of buns and two bowls of mutton soup for the two monsters.
It was also the leftovers from the mutton pot that Kieran ate.
However, the two monsters didn't care at all, eating happily.
Starbeck smiled and sat on the chair at the bar counter. He touched the Hound that was munching on the mutton crutches, looked at the two monsters that were in a daze, and then back at Kieran who was wolfing down his food.
There wasn't any verbal exchange.
It was just a gaze.
However, it made Starbeck feel blessed.
Starbeck liked the scene before his eyes.
There was no need to pretend, no need to put on airs.
As long as he cooked delicious food, people would appreciate it.
What else was better than this?
The person who appreciated it was Kieran.
Only the sounds of swallowing and chewing could be heard in the restaurant, it undoubtedly made the food tastier. Starbeck, who was holding a glass of water, passed it to Kieran after he finished another pot and expressed that he was full.
"I put lemon and mint in it, it's to get rid of the oil."
Starbeck said.
"Em."
Kieran nodded and finished the water in a single gulp.
He then stood up and took his apron from the hook at the bar counter, carrying the empty pot into the kitchen.
The minotaur and horseman, who had finished their food, were stunned for a moment. They then copied Kieran and took their plates and bowls to the kitchen.
It made the Elite Hound feel a sense of danger.
It felt like its master was there to wash the pot.
It didn't notice anything.
'I'm too careless!'
The Elite Hound's heart sank, it picked up the empty pot with its mouth and headed to the kitchen.
Immediately, the spacious kitchen became crowded.
Starbeck, however, looked at the scene with a smile.
Starbeck liked this kind of lively feeling.
Although Kieran had only been gone for a few days, Starbeck felt like a year of torture.
Now?
Everything returned to normal.
Ding Ding!
The doorbell rang and Song Shi, the young lady, walked in quickly.
"Food!
I want food! "
Song Shi shouted loudly.
"Only mutton soup and steamed buns."
Starbeck politely showed a courteous smile to the regular.
"Mutton soup and steamed buns then."
Song Shi took out a stack of money out of habit and placed it on the table.
Soon, the food was served.
Song Shi didn't act like a young lady and started to gobble up the food.
Even when she saw Kieran and the two monsters come out of the kitchen, she was still the same.
Kieran was not as important as food!
After eating 10 big buns, the young lady of Song Shi Family finally slowed down.
"Huu!
"I'm finally alive!"
Roye, you know what happened?
"My life in Ring City is inhumane."
All sorts of dangers, fear, and I couldn't even eat well!
Now that I think about it, I don't want to live like that anymore! "
Song Shi exclaimed loudly.
Her exclamation immediately resonated with the minotaur and horseman.
"That's right!
Ring City was not a monster's life!
I'm not going back!
"It's like a remote and desolate place!"
Said the minotaur and horseman.
The Elite Hound nodded in agreement.
'That's right.
You two are bumpkins who haven't seen the world! '
After the two monsters commented, Elite Hound wagged its tail and laid down at the entrance of the kitchen, its eyelids drooping as if it had fallen asleep.
The minotaur and horseman obviously noticed the disdain from Elite Hound.
The two monsters looked at Starbeck but didn't make a move.
They were unfamiliar with the place and people.
They even ate Kieran's food.
One look and they knew Kieran had a special relationship with their lord.
They couldn't simply make a move.
They wanted to familiarize themselves with Kieran and get a feel of the situation first.
Similar to the robbery outside Ring City, why didn't they fail so many times? Wasn't it because they knew their enemies?
Kieran didn't care about the little thoughts of his two followers.
He sat back in his chair and looked at Song Shi.
"I have a business deal, are you interested in it?"
Asked Kieran.
"Business deal?
Is it the convoy you guys robbed from Ring City? "
Asked Song Shi.
"Em.
I want to exchange the Crossing Coins, magical items, and equipment for gold coins. "
Kieran didn't hide the truth.
Song Shi, as someone in the know, had no reason to hide.
"No problem."
Song Shi nodded.
Then, the eldest daughter of Song Shi Family slightly frowned.
"You are the one who caused the explosion in Ring City, right?"
Song Shi asked in a soft voice.
"No!
"That's what I wanted to do, but Victor was one step ahead of me."
If it wasn't for the danger sense that I cultivated in the mountains, we would have died in that river. "
Kieran shook his head firmly.
"I'm eating!
Don't mention that place! "
Song Shi screamed at her.
That stinky river that looked like a cesspool really made her lose her appetite.
The reason why she never wanted to return to Ring City was because the Reek River took up at least half of it.
"Not mentioning it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
It's like … "
"Victor."
Kieran shifted the topic back to Victor.
"Victor?"
Don't tell me you want to hunt him down as well? "
Song Shi paused for a second and looked at Kieran with a slightly doubtful gaze.
"Why not?
After all, he stole a hundred years' worth of wealth from Ring City! "
Kieran asked.
"Since you know he stole a hundred years' worth of wealth from Ring City, do you know how many people are watching him?"
Song Shi furrowed her brows.
"I can imagine."
Replied Kieran.
"No!
You can't imagine it!
"If the previous Battle of Winter Night was dangerous, then this time, chasing after Victor will be fatal. Compared to this, the previous Battle of Winter Night was like a child's play."
Because the previous Battle of Winter Night was only attended by some young representatives of the mystical realm.
And this time, hunting him down?
It's the whole mystical realm! "
Song Shi raised her voice a notch higher.
This time, Kieran didn't answer.
He took a sip of the water in his cup.
Song Shi sighed at Kieran's reaction.
"I don't care what you want to do but don't drag Roye down with you.
Roye is … "
"Hold on!
You bastard! How dare you say that in front of me, do you want me to help you take care of Roye?
"What an awkward fellow!"
If you want to ask me for help, just say it! "
Said Song Shi. As if she suddenly thought of something, she looked at Kieran with a sudden realization.
The young lady stood in front of Kieran with her hands on her waist, waiting for Kieran's request.
"You can leave now if you're full.
We're closing early today. "
Kieran asked her to leave.
Song Shi wasn't unhappy at all since she thought she discovered everything. She walked out with a smile.
"I'll make a deal with you tomorrow during the day.
Of course, if you want to entrust Roye to me … "
"Take care, I won't be seeing you out."
Before Song Shi could finish, Kieran pushed her out of the restaurant, took back the little blackboard, and closed the door.
"Go pick an empty room on the second floor."
After speaking to the minotaur and horseman, Kieran signaled Starbeck with his eyes before heading down to the basement.
Bloody Mary had been waiting for him there for a while.
“Boss。”
Bloody Mary bowed and said.
Bloody Mary then went into the room that it had been staying in for a long time. It carefully moved away the trash and revealed a staircase that led downwards.
Bloody Mary walked down the stairs.
Kieran followed behind it.
After walking for more than 10 minutes, the end was in sight.
Du was standing there.
"My lord."
After bowing to Kieran with utmost respect, Du pushed open the stone door.
Instantly —
Golden light shone.
Dazzling.
It was time to count the spoils of war.
