Chapter 1991: Mamy Restaurant’s Holy Child

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

As a highly respected archbishop of the Holy See, Seely didn’t have much desire for delicious food. He was already used to a simple life, but he still couldn’t help gulping when he faced the dishes.

This thing that was cut into pieces but still maintaining its goose form… was the roast goose? The rich aroma was tempting.

The big fish head on the plate was covered by red and green chopped chili. The spicy umami aroma already assaulted his nose. Even though he was surprised that the fish head was being eaten alone, that didn’t affect his urge to try it.

The red-colored meat in the terracotta bowl was pork with layers of fat in it. Such meat with mainly fat was usually too greasy in Seely’s eyes. However, he didn’t know if the chef colored the fatty meat with a red glaze. The rich meat aroma was so pure that it was irresistible.

Seely heaved a breath of relief when he didn’t see Mapo¹

 in Mapo Tofu, but failing to find fish in the eggplant with garlic sauce made him feel cheated.

“Please try them. They are very popular dishes in Mamy Restaurant.” Canault looked at Seely respectfully. As part of the marginalized personnel of the Holy See, he usually didn’t have many chances to dine together with an archbishop.

“Mm-hmm.” Seely nodded, and popped a piece of the roast goose into his mouth with the chopsticks.

Crunch.

He could hear the cracking sounds when he bit into the crispy goose’s skin, and underneath the goose’s skin was the tender and juicy goose’s meat that was soaked with the marinate. He could feel the meat’s juice bursting in his mouth when he chewed.

The taste buds were awakened immediately, and they began to welcome the crazy storm of scrumptiousness.

Roast goose, steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers, Mapo Tofu…

Seely was slowly getting lost helplessly in all the delicious food.

He couldn’t imagine how someone could make food taste so delicious. These things that only were used to fill the stomach and replenish energy actually became a form of enjoyment.

As someone who had gone through this, Canault watched Seely tuck in with a smile. He had behaved almost in the same manner when he had first discovered Mamy Restaurant.

After some time, the two of them finished the food in front of them, and let out a satisfied burp before stopping.

I didn’t expect that we could finish all that food! Seely, who looked at the empty plates in front of him, thought in a shock. He had just been worried that they wouldn’t have been able to finish that food, and would have wasted it.

“Are you satisfied with your dinner?” Canault asked Seely nervously.

“Erm, it’s good.” Seely nodded. His gaze swept across the several servers in the restaurant, and he said with surprise, “This restaurant’s service staff are rather special.”

A pure-blooded golden dragon, a pure-blooded frost dragon, a great spatial magic caster of an unknown race, an 8th-tier magic caster of an unknown race, a 7th-tier elf…

He couldn’t imagine that this was actually the power of this restaurant’s service staff.

“Yes. Mamy Restaurant’s service staff are all so beautiful.” Canault nodded in agreement.

Seely flicked a glance at Canault.

Canault awkwardly explained, “Erm… I was saying that Boss Mag had great taste.”

Trying to alleviate his embarrassment, Canault suggested, “It’s about an hour more before the restaurant closes, why don’t we go out for a walk first?”

“Alright.” Seely threw a glance at Mag, who was busy in the kitchen. He had to get Mag’s permission if he wanted to bring Amy away. This could also prevent a confrontation with Krassu and Urien.

The archbishop from the Holy See? What’s he doing here? In the kitchen, Mag looked up at Canault and Seely, who were paying their bills, and were about to leave. It was easy to deduce their identity from their clothing.

Ever since they had met the pope at Rodu, and Amy had been given that pair of invisible wings, Mag had spent quite some time collecting information related to the Holy See.

This old missionary with white hair should be Archbishop Seely, who was the number two figure in the Holy See and someone ranked just under the pope.

Given the archbishop’s status, he shouldn’t have appeared in Chaos City, and even lined up to eat at Mamy Restaurant.

Perhaps he has come for Amy? Mag frowned.

The Holy See had existed for eons in the human race. Before the Roth Empire had been established, the See had even once been the guiding light for the human race in the dark ages. It had been the symbol of light and justice.

After the Roth Empire was established, the royal family intentionally diminished the Holy See’s influence to truly grasp power, and that caused the Holy See to deteriorate as time went by.

However, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. The Holy See still had a very deep foundation in the Roth Empire. It even had a few 10th-tier powerhouses.

Judging from the various resources, the Holy See had always had a very positive image in the human’s history.

However, what Mag couldn’t understand was why the pope thought that Amy was the holy maiden chosen by the god.

The Holy See was the human race’s holy center, and Amy was a half-elf. This obviously wasn’t reasonable.

Indeed, after the dinner service was over, Canault brought Seely over, and knocked on the restaurant’s door.

Seely looked at Mag, and said, “Mr. Mag, I am Archbishop Seely of the Holy See. I have something to discuss with you about your daughter Amy. May I?”

Mag looked at Seely, and pondered for a moment before he opened the door, and said, “Come in.”

Amy was about to go upstairs with Ugly Duckling in her arms. When she saw Seely and Canault come in, she curiously asked, “Father, who are they?”

“They have something to discuss with Father. Little Amy, go upstairs with Annie first,” Mag said.

“Alright.” Amy nodded and followed Annie upstairs.

Seely watched Amy go upstairs, and praised, “What an obedient child.”

Mag poured two glasses of water for them before sitting down across from them, and calmly asked, “May I know the purpose of your visit here today, Archbishop?”

Seely looked into Mag’s eyes, and said, “I know Mr. Mag has already met the pope in Rodu. I came to Chaos City under the pope’s orders. My purpose is to bring the holy maiden to Rodu for her to accept the Holy See’s canonization and baptism.”

Mag frowned after hearing that. “There is no holy maiden here. Seems like you guys have to come to the wrong place.”

“Mr. Mag’s daughter, Amy, has accepted the god’s wings. She is the one chosen by the Holy Spirit and the holy maiden of the Holy See. It’s the best choice for her to return to the Holy See. She will be the next pontiff.”

Mag looked at him, and mockingly laughed. “Why should I believe your words? What if I say that your pope is the one chosen by the God of Cookery, and is the holy child of my Mamy Restaurant, so it’s best for him to come and serve dishes in my restaurant, and he will be the next manager if he does the job well?”

“You…” Seely’s face tightened with anger.

“Boss Mag…” Canault, who was standing at the side, looked at Mag worriedly. Boss Mag was being too fierce. He even dared to make such comments.

“If there’s nothing else, I will have to send you guys away now.” Mag got up, and looked at Seely and Canault boldly.
