A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 1751: You Can’t Have Supper Secretly Behind My Back

The grilled oyster was liked by Irina and Amy, so Mag ordered another two dozen oysters from the system, and went to grill a large prawn while he was at it.

The golden-brown minced garlic and succulent oyster meat, with some spring onion as decoration and together with the juice, were sent into Amy’s mouth. She tasted the rich fragrance of the minced garlic and the oyster. It was indeed an irresistible taste.

“Meow, meow~” Ugly Duckling sat in front of an empty shell as it called out to Mag, its eyes glimmering with hope.

“Ugly Duckling, you shouldn’t eat something with such strong flavors. Your fur will start falling off.” Mag pulled out some of the pincer meat from the grilled prawn, and placed it on the empty shell.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling lowered its head as it purred happily while eating.

“Ugly Duckling, you can’t eat too much. If you get too heavy, it won’t just stop at your fur falling out,” Amy reminded it as she held a spicy crayfish pincer in her hand.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling turned its head in another direction, and continued eating, pretending to not hear anything.

“I’m so full.” Amy put the last piece of prawn meat into her mouth, and pulled out a piece of tissue to wipe her hands and mouth. She rubbed her full belly satisfyingly.

“Little Amy’s little tummy has loads of things in it,” Mag said with a smile as he stroked her head.

“I didn’t want to eat so much, but Father’s cooking is way too good, so… I couldn’t control myself,” Amy said helplessly with a pout.

“Are you still angry with me?” Mag asked cautiously as he looked into Amy’s eyes.

“Of course not. You are Amy’s best father. How could Amy be angry at you?” Amy reached out, and put her arms around Mag’s neck before planting a kiss on his cheek.

“You are also Father’s best baby.” Mag smiled like a giant child.

“But! You can’t have supper secretly behind my back. You must call me along!” Amy said seriously.

“Mm-hm, mm-hm. Next time, the two of us will have supper secretly,” Mag said with a doting smile.

“Hey, I’m still here.” Irina crossed her arms in front of her chest, and looked at the father-and-daughter with a smile.

“Exactly.” Amy leaned into Irina’s embrace, and blinked at Mag. “Of course we would call Mother along. We’re going to have supper as a family of three.”

Mag quickly realized that he seemed to have let it get to his head, and quickly said, “Yes, we’ll have supper as a family of three.”

“Can we go watch the stars? I haven’t watched the stars with Father and Mother before.” Amy looked at both of them expectantly.

“Of course.” Mag looked at Amy apologetically.

Because he had yet to announce his identity, they were unable to stand in public as a family of three. Besides, he and Irina had been very busy recently, so they rarely had a chance to spend time together as a family.

“Let’s go watch the stars.” Irina waved her hand, and the pile of plates and rubbish all floated into the kitchen. The silverware went into the dishwasher, and the table was already spick and span. After that, she held Amy’s little hand, and led her to the staircase.

Mag picked Ugly Duckling up, and went up to take a thick blanket.

The balcony on the third floor was the best place to watch the stars. Mag swept the snow on the bench away, and laid the blanket on it. Amy sat in the middle, while Mag and Irina sat on her sides. Ugly Duckling leaped onto Amy’s lap, and nestled there comfortably. The family of three covered themselves up with the blanket, leaned against the backrest of the bench, and looked up at the starry sky.

“But there are clouds,” Amy said disappointedly.

A dark cloud happened to drift across the sky above Chaos City, covering most of the view. One could only see a few stars here and there through the cloud. It was obviously not a good night for stargazing.

“It’s alright. It’s just a cloud.” Irina took out her magic caster’s staff, and pointed it to the sky.

A golden light pierced the night sky, and disappeared into the dark cloud. With a thunderous roar, the thick black cloud floating over Chaos City disappeared rapidly to reveal the dark blue night sky and the twinkling stars.

“Wow! Mother is awesome!!!” Amy was surprised at that sight. She put her arms around Irina’s neck, and started kissing her as she pointed at the sky excitedly, and said, “I’ve never seen such a clear and bright sky.”

“Actually, I…” Mag opened his mouth, but quickly swallowed his words. This really was not something anyone would be capable of. Even if he were to get back to the 10th-tier, he couldn’t possibly fly up to the sky and cut the cloud to pieces.

However, when he saw the happy Amy and content Irina, the corners of his lips rose uncontrollably.

“The moon looks so small, and it will occasionally turn into a crescent, and then into a circle. Did Big Sister Babla really live on the moon in the past? Would she become a small person after returning to the moon?” Amy asked curiously as she stared at the moon.

“The moon is very far away from us, so it looks small. It is actually very big, and the people living there are as big as us. Besides, the moon doesn’t change in size. It only appears different because of how the light reflects on it,” Mag said. Of course, the moon he was referring to was the moon seen on Earth. As of now, he did not know if that would apply to this world as well.

“Oh…” Amy nodded thoughtfully. Then, she again curiously asked, “Then can Big Sister Babla go back home if she continues flying towards the moon?”

“Those who did not give up flying to the moon should all be dead.” Irina shook her head. “In the skies, millions of kilometers above, is a layer that we could not break through. The moment you get past that layer, even a 10th-tier powerhouse would not be able to breathe. That is why it’s also called the layer of death.”

“That’s so scary.” Amy’s neck shrank.

“This is when you need a spaceship,” Mag said to himself.

“How is Big Sister Babla going back home, then?” Amy asked worriedly.

“She’ll have to stay in the Norland Continent unless the Moon Nation can repair and restart the teleportation portal.” Irina shook her head.

“If the route to the Moon Nation could be built quickly, it would be a good thing. That would probably be the only place with well-preserved ancient characters and spell formations passed down. We currently have no lead on repairing the spell formation.” Irina turned to look at Mag.

“There’s not much hope.” Mag looked up at the round moon. It did not feel secure to put all hopes on the moon hundreds and thousands of kilometers away.

“I’m so happy to be able to watch the stars with Father and Mother. It’ll be great if we could do this often in the future,” Amy said happily as he held their hands, not understanding what they just said.

“We will stargaze with Amy often in the future.” Mag held Amy’s hand gently, and looked at the mother-and-daughter pair lovingly.

***

“Your Majesty. The spell formation has already been repaired and enhanced. It’s undergoing the last phase of trial and confirmation!”

“Your Majesty, the Elite Advanced Force has fallen in. The Moon Nation’s best spell formation masters, magic casters, and warriors are all in position, awaiting your order to enter the teleportation portal!”

“Your Majesty… please reconsider. The Advanced Force might face danger and ordeals. Your subject begs you not to put yourself in danger for the sake of the Moon Nation. The Moon Nation’s warriors will definitely save her highness and bring her back.”

In the underground palace of the Moon Nation, several courtiers knelt to the ground and pleaded.

“I have already made up my mind. I must personally lead the Advanced Force into the teleportation portal. No matter what is on the other side of the teleportation portal, I must bring Babla back personally,” the king said solemnly. “I am the king of the Moon Nation, but also a father!”
