Chapter 618 There’s Not Much Time Left for Me

A heated argument broke out in the cavernous hall. Fox stood at the center of the hall with his head bowed, and refrained from saying anything. However, he was stealing glances toward a white-robed elderly man sitting on a platform with a staff in his hand.

This man was Douglas, the great elder and the most powerful being of the Frost Dragon race. He was also the eldest and most esteemed of the Frost Dragons, so his opinion held by far the most weight.

Following the disappearance of Rankster, he had become the spiritual leader of the Frost Dragon race. Perhaps the opinions of the other elders had some bearing on this matter, but Douglas was the only one that could make the final decision.

However, Douglas was sitting on the platform with his eyes closed as if he had fallen asleep.

As for just how powerful this 2200-year-old hermit was, that was something that only Rankster, who had forced Douglas to relinquish the role of chief many years ago, knew.

“That’s enough.” Douglas suddenly opened his eyes, and his coarse voice spread through the entire hall. All of the arguments taking place came to an abrupt halt as all of the elders turned to look at him.

“Keep searching for Rankster. I’m still alive, so there’s no way that little brat would die so easily,” Douglas instructed in a slow voice. He reached out and grabbed the staff resting beside him, upon which he disappeared from his seat.

The elders looked at each other as the hall fell silent. After a while, all of them departed.

Fox looked around the empty hall with a pair of bloodshot eyes. “Rankster... If you’re dead, then why can’t you stay dead? You stole this position from me all those years ago, are you still going to keep it from me even after you’re dead?” he spat through gritted teeth.

You old bastard; you won’t live for too long, either. Once I reach the 10-tier, I’ll definitely be able to replicate what Rankster did to you! Fox clenched his fists and made a vow to himself before exiting the hall.

“I didn’t get her blood last time, yet if I want to verify if she’s the one I’m looking for, then I have to use her blood to examine her dragon origin.” Elizabeth stood in the distance and looked at Mamy Restaurant as she murmured to herself, “My 20-year-old coming-of-age ceremony is coming up soon. I have to receive the blessing of the Frost Dragon origin in order to completely activate my bloodline and become the most powerful Frost Dragon I can be. If Fox were aware of her existence, he definitely wouldn’t leave her alone. I don’t have much time left. Perhaps... I should seek her out and speak to her one-on-one. That elf is going to be a problem, though. She’s too alert and too smart.”

Elizabeth shook her head before disappearing on the spot.

“We hope to see you again.”

Mag bade farewell to the final customer with a smile on his face before flipping over the sign on the door. He then entered the restaurant and turned to Sally and the others, who were busy cleaning up, and smiled as he said, “After you’re done cleaning up, stay behind for a little while. Have a late dinner before you go back.”

“A late dinner? Is today a special day, Boss?” Yabemiya asked.

“What’s the occasion?” Babla was also quite curious.

“You can say it’s an initiation feast for Babla.” Mag smiled at Babla as he said, “Congratulations on finding your first job.”

“That’s true. Congratulations, Babla, you also found a place to live,” Yabemiya said with a smile.

“Thank you, Big Sister Babla. It’s all because of you that we get to have more delicious food today.” Amy was simply elated that she would be able to eat more of Mag’s cooking.

“Congratulations,” Sally also chimed in with a smile.

“Me? I... I... You’re welcome... No, I mean... Thank you...” Babla’s eyes widened, and as she looked around at everyone’s smiling faces, she was stumbling slightly over her words, much to everyone’s amusement.

“Alright, everyone worked really hard today. You can order what you’d like to eat.” Mag wore an amused smile on his face. Babla was a little pampered, but her attitude toward her work was very commendable. She had helped out Yabemiya during the dinner service, and had done quite a good job. At the very least, her customer service attitude had been quite good, and she had received the approval of many customers.

Amy was the first to raise her hand as she yelled, “I want to eat grilled fish! I haven’t had grilled fish yet today!”

“Meow-“Ugly Duckling’s eyes also lit up with excitement.

“You can’t have a late dinner, Ugly Duckling. You’ll get fat if you do, and if you get fat...” Amy looked at Ugly Duckling with a dangerous glint in her eyes.

“Meow!” Ugly Duckling felt a chill run down its spine, and it immediately ducked its head, too scared to even move.

“I want a roujiamo!” Yabemiya raised her hand.

“I want a Yangzhou fried rice,” Sally said.

“I... I want to eat roast beef kebabs.” Babla gulped involuntarily. She had lost count of how many times she had had to gulp tonight.

“Big Sister Babla, do you only eat beef kebabs? You don’t seem to eat anything else.” Amy turned to Babla with a perplexed look.

Mag was also appraising Babla with a puzzled expression. Roast beef kebabs were indeed quite delicious, but for her to stick with roast beef kebabs so stubbornly when there were other dishes to choose from was rather strange.

Babla was a little embarrassed as she said, “I really like roast beef kebabs.”

“Alright, you can all have a seat. I’ll cook a large grilled fish so everyone can have some today.” Mag turned and walked into the kitchen.

Not long after that, Yabemiya and Sally began to bring out one delicious dish after another. Mag carefully brought out the large grilled fish and placed it at the center of the table before untying his apron as he said, “Dig in. We’ve got more than enough for everyone tonight.”

Babla stared at the pile of 20 roast beef kebabs in front of her before turning to Mag with incredulity as she asked, “Are these... all for

me?”

“That’s right. You can eat all you want.” Mag nodded with a smile as he plucked off the most tender morsel of flesh from the grilled fish with his chopsticks, and placed it in Amy’s bowl.

Ugly Duckling was staring at the grilled fish with desire in its eyes, but it then took a glance up at Amy and ducked its head with a pitiable expression. It covered its eyes with its front paws, hoping that not being able to see the food would reduce the temptation.

“Alright... I’m digging in, then.” Babla was overjoyed. 20 kebabs was half of her monthly allowance. Looking at him now, it appeared that this boss wasn’t as terrible as she had thought. She picked up a beef kebab and began to eat with a joyful expression.

“Babla, roujiamo is super delicious too.” Yabemiya stood off to the side and took a bit of her roujiamo, upon which a blissful look appeared on her face. A golden dragon tail peeked out from under her dress, sweeping around from side to side behind her.

Babla faltered slightly as she looked down at the golden dragon tail on the ground, then at Yabemiya, and her brain seemed to have temporarily malfunctioned.
