A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 2271

Chapter 2271: So, Black Cat Opera Is Set Up By You!

Vicki observed Xi carefully. The normally stern Xi had such a lively expression when she was eating the red braised pork.

She took a big bite of the red braised pork and carefully chewed with her eyes narrowed and her eyebrows raised. She bobbed up and down slightly when she was chewing, just like a wave. Her lips were upturned, so it was obvious that her mood was rather happy and relaxed.

After swallowing the red braised pork, she immediately ate a mouthful of rice. She looked even happier when she was chewing the rice, but she was still chewing it carefully, as though she was enjoying the process.

She continuously ate three pieces of red braised pork with a mouthful of rice each. She then picked up the remaining beef kebab at the side and bit one cube off. She chewed carefully before swallowing and then eating another mouthful of rice.

It was impolite to watch others eat, but Vicki and Mag couldn’t help watching Xi eat.

Vicki felt it amazing as this was the first time that she had seen Xi eat.

Meanwhile, Mag was watching Xi with an appreciative gaze. Xi ate with an intellectual and rigorousness, like a nerd. She had to chew 12 times for every mouthful of red braised pork, 18 times for every mouthful of rice and 20 times for every cube of beef. However, she would control the speed of her chewing, as she would swallow every food item precisely at the six second point.

“Why are you staring at me?” Xi looked up and met Mag’s gaze.

“I’m just a little curious. Do your armed forces specially train you guys at eating too? Six seconds for every type of food,” Mag said frankly.

“No.” Xi’s answer was short and sweet as ever.

…

“Oh.” Mag, too, didn’t elaborate on that. After all, it was rude to stare at a maiden eating and it wasn’t worth mentioning.

However, Vicki couldn’t stop herself from laughing. Her head was down with a piece of beef in her mouth, but she couldn’t chew because her lips were upturned.

She knew that the Underground City’s Galácticos didn’t have training in eating. After Mag’s reminder, she suddenly realized why she felt that Xi ate with a weird tempo.

So, it was her OCD of six seconds for every bite…

Xi looked at the two of them weirdly and continued her tempo of eating red braised pork, rice, beef kebab and rice.

Vicki soon controlled her laughter and then tried the red braised pork.

Then… she was a lost cause too.

“This red braised pork is simply too delicious! It’s soft and sweet and melts in the mouth. The rich meaty aroma suddenly spreads in my mouth and I’m completely bowed over!”

Vicki was amazed inwardly, but she simply couldn’t stop. She also began the tempo of one mouthful of rice followed by one mouthful of red braised pork.

Mag munched on the kebabs and drank the wine casually as he watched the two ladies eating happily, feeling a little exasperated.

One big and one small. They were both rather cute.

However, he had invited them here to improve on their friendship by eating some kebabs and drinking some wine, so that he could get some information out of them.

Seeing that they enjoyed their meals so much, he felt bad to interrupt them.

Around 10 minutes later, the bowl of rice and the pot of red braised pork were empty.

Xi and Vicki put down their chopsticks, still wanting more.

“The red braised pork is so delicious. Mr. Alex, your culinary skill is simply amazing.” Vicki looked at Mag with stars in her eyes. His powerful strength made people admire him, while his great culinary skill made one… want to marry him.

This man was simply too charismatic!

Even though his looks were extraordinarily good-looking, he was handsome and manly. He had a noble and gentle temperament, and a low and attractive voice. His perfect figure under his chef’s suit made one lust after him too.

A being who could slash a Great Old One with a sword; but his charisma increased even more when he put down his longsword and picked up a chef’s knife.

Vicki thought that those aristocratic men in Underground City were completely incomparable to him.

Even the one that her family had chosen for her was far inferior when compared to him.

“Thank you for your compliments. Have more beef, please.” Mag placed a serving of grilled beef kebabs and mutton kebabs onto Vicki’s plate.

“Thank you.” Vicki nodded with a smile. Her gaze was soon attracted by the piping hot kebabs.

Xi, who shared her bowl of rice and pot of red braised pork with Vicki, was obviously not full yet. Fortunately, there were still plenty of beef kebabs and mutton kebabs and Mag gave another serving to her again, so she concentrated on eating the kebabs and drinking the warm red wine occasionally.

Vicki held onto the warm glass and took a sip of the red wine.

The red wine that was heated up had a warm texture. It also had a tinge of fruit and spice aroma. It was sweet and warmed her heart.

Vicki’s eyes lit up. It was better than any other alcoholic beverages she had had before. It tasted just like… some kind of juice.

But, there was a long and lingering aftertaste after swallowing it, just like a beauty caressing your neck. Seductive and mesmerizing.

Soon, a blush appeared on her face.

Her alcohol tolerance was rather bad. She usually didn’t drink and she couldn’t stand the stimulating texture of most liquor.

However, this red wine gave her a warm and comfortable sensation. It was a little intoxicating and a little addictive.

Together with the kebabs, a glass of red wine was soon finished.

Mag poured another glass for Vicki and said, “Is Miss Vicki going to stay on the Norland Continent for a long time? You sound very adept at the Norland Continent’s common tongue.”

Xi looked up at him and then at Vicki before pondering for a moment. She then retracted her gaze and continued to eat the kebabs.

Mag noticed her small gestures. He remained unfazed but he felt it funny inwardly.

This was the current situation.

He knew about Vicki’s identity as the maestro of the Black Cat Opera, but Vicki didn’t know that he was Hades. Perhaps Xi didn’t know that his cover in Rodu was Hades, but she knew that he had a tavern in Rodu and he had sponsored Vicki’s opera troupe.

Furthermore, his current cover for his identity wasn’t very secure. If Vicki came to the restaurant during the day, she would see the stand-up at the door and Annie’s work and she would be able to deduce his identity.

All of them had covers, so they weren’t afraid to be recognized.

After all, who could guess that the maiden who sang, danced and rapped on stage, was not only the maestro of Black Cat Opera, she was also the young mistress of a certain big family in Underground City. She even drove her battleship and self-detonated it at Cthulhu, and performed a great escape on the ice sheets in a mech.

Mag simply felt amused, so he intended to keep that cover and test out this maiden, who obviously had a low alcohol tolerance.

Vicki was slightly taken aback. Looking at Mag, she pondered for a moment before smilingly saying, “Yes. I have been on the Norland Continent for over a year, and I have even set up an opera troupe. Black Cat Opera. Have you heard of it before?”

“So, Black Cat Opera is set up by you! I heard that it’s the best opera troupe on the Norland Continent,” Mag nodded and said, showing an admiring and shocked expression.
