A Stay-at-home Dad's Restaurant In An Alternate World - Chapter 964
Chapter 964: Maintain A Low Profile, Ah Zi
“We are going to the Dragon Islands today. We’re going to catch a pig there, and then go home to make the delicious red braised pork for Amy,” Mag said smilingly. He decided to bring Amy along after deliberating. After all, there was only a day off every week; he definitely should bring Amy out for some fun.
The Fiery Pig was a kind of magic beast that only lived on Fire Dragon Island. It was the favorite food of the red dragon. It had a 4th-tier capability because it had evolved according to the unique volcanic conditions on the Fire Dragon Island.
Even Mag in his current condition could easily handle a 4th-tier magic beast.
As the Dragon Islands were such an interesting place, it was not bad to bring Amy there to enrich her experience. After all, with Ah Zi around, they wouldn’t be in any dangerous situation. Besides, even if they were caught in a dangerous situation, they could still either escape or hide.
“Dragon Islands!” Amy’s eyes lit up. Then, she asked with anticipation, “Are we going to find little Ah Zi now? I like Ah Zi the most!”
“Yes. The Dragon Islands are very far from Chaos City, so we have to depend on Ah Zi to bring us there.” Mag nodded and smiled. Without Ah Zi’s help, the travel between these two locations would take more than 48 hours, and capturing the Fiery Pig would not be possible at all.
Mag scaled the mountain with Amy on his back. When they were about halfway up the mountain, he and Amy changed their clothes and put on their masks. Then, he got a whistle out from his pocket and blew hard with his mouth. A loud and high-pitched whistling that resembled a certain bird could be heard.
A moment later, a purple-striped griffin flew out from a cave at the top of the mountain, and then swooped down vertically. It flew around Mag and Amy happily for a while before it landed lightly on the ground, and rubbed against Mag’s hand with its head.
Amy extended her little hand smilingly, and said, “Good griffin, Ah Zi. Come, let me touch your head.”
A hint of wariness appeared in Ah Zi’s eyes immediately, but he swiftly extended his head over when he saw Amy’s smile slowly disappearing, as if he would be whacked on his head if he was a second slower.
Amy stroked Ah Zi’s head while she smilingly said, “Good Griffin.”
Ah Zi’s expression had also changed from wary to enjoyment. He even flipped over to reveal his tummy.
“You’re a 10th-tier griffin, shouldn’t you behave with a little more composure?” Mag said with a little resignation, but he soon smiled after seeing the two of them having such fun.
“Alright, we need to get going now. The Dragon Islands are rather far.” Mag smiled and carried Amy up. Ah Zi flipped over again and Mag climbed onto his back. His strong wings spread out, and they took off straight into the sky. They were flying exactly southward.
The Dragon Islands were located south of Chaos City. The wilderness filled with all kinds of magic beasts in between them was like a natural barrier that stopped most people from getting to the Dragon Islands.
Giant dragons were not interested in opening up the wilderness. The Dragon Islands were full of resources, and were the richest land on the Norland Continent.
Looking down from the sky, they could see huge magic beasts hunting in the wilderness and also the teams of mercenaries hunting and killing the magic beasts. Magic beasts, too, were hunting and killing the mercenaries.
Scenes like this continued to take place endlessly in the wilderness. The roles of the hunter and the hunted could easily be reversed, but the adventurers and mercenaries continued to venture into the wilderness so they could reap the great rewards that came with the extreme danger.
The farther out they went into the wilderness, the less mercenaries they saw, and the number of strong auras began to increase.
Mag could sense the auras of a few 9th-tier magic beasts. There was even an aura of a 10th-tier magic beast which let out a frustrated roar when Ah Zi flew past it. It was extremely territorial.
“Wow, there are actually so many magic beasts in the wilderness, and they all looked like little ants from here.” Amy looked below curiously from the griffin’s back. Then, she patted the griffin’s back and instigated, ” Little Ah Zi, let’s fly closer to see how they look like.”
Ah Zi swooped down straight away after he didn’t see any objections from Mag. He flew very close to the dense forest, and then twisted and turned as he flew across the narrow canyons. He zoomed past the head of a 9th-tier magic beast and hooked a 10th-tier giant python up as he flew through a forest. The antics made Amy cheer.
“He’s great with kids.” Mag looked at the giant python that finally gave up chasing after them after it smashed half a mountain with its tail, and then shook his head.
He was antagonizing all kinds of magic beasts and zipping across all types of dangerous terrain. The entire journey was full of excitement and without a single dull moment.
Of course, all these were possible due to Ah Zi’s 10th-tier power and second-to-none speed. Otherwise, seeking out trouble like this, even a 10th-tier expert could suffer great injuries.
The land became the blue sea about two hours later.
Amy’s eyes lit up as she happily said, “Wow, there’s so much water! Father, is this the sea you were talking about? It’s so blue and beautiful.”
“Yes, this is the sea.” Mag nodded. The endless sea broadened one’s mind.
“Are there mermaids in this sea? Can we meet them?” Amy asked curiously.
“Maybe there are. But it’s not easy to see the mermaids.” Mag smiled.
“Let me try calling them.” Amy cupped her hands next to her mouth and shouted at the sea, “Mermaid, I am Amy. How do you do?”
“Thud!”
A dolphin leaped out of the waters, and followed a school of dolphins, as if they were replying to Amy’s words.
“Wow, so cute!”
Amy’s smile became brighter.
Mag watched with a smile. It was so relaxing to come out for a trip with Amy.
“Look, Father. Those rocks are floating in midair!” Amy pointed at the sky afar.
Mag raised his head and looked at the sky afar. A black dot slowly became clear in view. Dozens of islands hovering a few kilometers above the sea appeared in Mag’s view.
“Is that the Dragon Islands?” Mag’s eyes widened gradually.
Even though Mag had already seen many extraordinary things after he came to this alternate world, he was still shocked to see the giant island surrounded by a fog in the midst of those hovering islands.
“Can we go up there to take a look?” Amy turned and looked at Mag expectantly.
“Roar!”
A dragon’s roar could be heard. Then, a giant dragon with a 100-meter wingspan flew over their heads and disappeared among those islands.
“Of course, that was our destination for this trip.” Mag smiled and nodded. He patted the griffin’s back gently. “Maintain a low profile, Ah Zi. It will be the best not to let the giant dragons discover us. Let’s go to Red Dragon Island.”
“Howl…”
Ah Zi growled softly, then spread his wings, and flew toward the Dragon Islands. He avoided the narrow and sharp rocks below them and dived into the fog.
Dozens of huge hovering islands, sights and sounds of giant dragons everywhere, and the aura of the strong—this was the Dragon Islands, the settlement of the strongest race on Norland Continent.
Ah Zi glided past the exterior. A red, smoking island not too far away began to appear in Mag’s view.
