Chapter 827 System, Have You Been Looking at Weird Stuff Behind My Back?

After bidding farewell to Scheer, Mag made a trip to the largest bookstore in Chaos City, and purchased a bunch of books containing information regarding all of the races on the Norland Continent. Many of these books were about the church, and there were some that were quite suitable for Amy to read as well.

Mag was an avid reader, and this hobby of his became even more prominent after he came to this world. He was able to quickly accumulate knowledge through reading and better his understanding of this world.

This was a world in which wealth didn’t necessarily guarantee a good life, so he had to arm himself with more knowledge.

Of course, he also really enjoyed these busy days spent cooking, reading, and engaging in a series of other meaningful activities. At the very least, it was much more engaging and interesting than his uneventful past life.

Mag paid for the books, and also issued an additional delivery fee before providing the address of his restaurant to the bookstore employee. He didn’t want to be transporting a massive box of books back with him on his bicycle, so he was getting the bookstore to deliver the books to him at a designated time instead.

After that, Mag paid his ice cream shop a visit. The ice cream was already packed to the rafters with customers, and Yabemiya wore her usual bubbly smile as she offered up one delicious ice cream after another to the eagerly awaiting customers.

All of the customers wore blissful smiles on their faces; not only were they enjoying their delectable ice creams, they were also basking in the atmosphere of this beautiful ice cream shop as well as the bubbly energy that Yabemiya was radiating.

This is probably what natural charisma looks like. Mag stood outside the ice cream shop for a while with a smile of approval on his face. Getting Yabemiya to run the ice cream shop for him was one of the best decisions he’d ever made.

After departing from the ice cream shop, Mag didn’t return to his restaurant. Instead, he went to the nearby Ricky’s Rotisserie before making his way to the second floor.

The second floor had already been cleaned up by the system, and the area of around 200 square meters was completely empty. However, the room was quite dim due to the lack of windows.

Mag briefly inspected his surroundings before asking internally, “System, how much will it cost me to make half of this floor into three independent rooms?”

“The system is a proper God of Cookery System, not a construction system, so please don’t ask the system to complete such trivial tasks,” the system replied in a serious manner.

“Didn’t you do all of the restaurant renovations?” Mag asked as he pursed his lips.

“Providing the perfect restaurant is part of the system’s duty, but what you’re asking for now goes beyond that!”

“System, aren’t service staff an important part of a restaurant as well?”

“Of course. Exceptional service staff can drastically enhance a customer’s dining experience, so they are indeed vital to a good restaurant,” the system agreed.

“In that case, in order to ensure the quality of customer service from the restaurant’s service staff, I have to do my best to make sure that they can get home safely every day, then have a good night’s sleep so they have the energy to turn up to work and provide exemplary customers service. As such, isn’t it very important to provide them with comfortable lodging?” Mag asked with a smile.

“If you look at it from that perspective... then it does seem rather necessary...” the system conceded in a conflicted manner.

“A restaurant’s employees are an extremely important component of the restaurant, so I expect the highest quality from you. Show me the blueprints before you begin renovations.” Mag nodded with a pleased expression before heading downstairs.

“Wait... You...” The system seemed to have suddenly returned to its senses.

However, Mag was not interested in hearing its objections. Instead, he cut off the system, and said, “You can give me a quote now. Of course, if you don’t want to take the job, then I can consider hiring another construction team. I heard that the construction team of the city lord’s castle is currently looking for business; if I communicate with City Lord Michael, I should be able to get a friendship discount.”

“Don’t do that! He can offer you a friendship discount, but the system can offer you a relative discount!” the system hurriedly exclaimed.

“So you’re admitting that you’re my son?”

“...”

“I have no stupid son like you.” Mag pursed his lips in a disdainful manner.

“The system can provide the best design plans on the market. The floor-to-ceiling window in the living quarters will directly face the Aden Square, and one would only need to open the curtains every morning to be greeted by the sight of the beautiful square. The system will also be providing furniture of the highest quality to ensure the most comfortable living experience, and the newest air conditioning system will constantly monitor parameters such as the temperature and humidity within the room. On top of that, the system will design a two-person bathtub to be used by the service staff and yourself,” the system said with a slightly suggestive tone in its voice.

Mag almost fell down the stairs upon hearing this, and he raised an eyebrow as he asked, “System, have you been looking at weird stuff behind my back? What’s this about a two-person bathtub?”

“Research has shown that a larger bathtub contributes to a marked improvement in one’s happiness factor derived from taking a bath. Furthermore, more positions will be possible in a larger bathtub compared to a smaller one.”

“Alright, we’ll do as you say.” Mag massaged his brows in a flustered manner. This system was becoming more and more ridiculous by the day. As he continued down the staircase, he said, “I think we can just skip the design and construction fees. As for the other fees, I won’t ask for much; I’ll only ask for a 50% discount. You can give me a final quote based on that.”

“The design and construction processes epitomize the wisdom and efforts of a master designer and super craftsman! How could you just waive those fees?! That’s far too unreasonable and inhumane! And a 50% discount is way too much! The system provides only the best of the best at the lowest prices; if you ask for a 50% discount... the system will be incurring a loss!” the system yelled in protest.

Mag furrowed his brows as he countered, “Didn’t you say you were offering a relative discount? How could you be so stingy to your own father? When have you ever seen a son charge their father for design and construction fees? You’re the worst son I’ve ever seen!”

“Other people’s fathers buy them houses instead[1]...” the system grumbled.

Mag raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. The system had definitely been doing research behind his back; it was becoming more and more difficult to win arguments against it. However, his expression remained unchanged as he shrugged in a nonchalant manner. “If you don’t want to do it, then I’ll find someone else.”

“The system will do it!” the system wailed in despair and fury. “After waiving the design and construction fees, then applying a 50% discount to the rest, that’ll be a total of 500,251 copper coins!”

“Just waive the remainder and do 500,250 copper coins.” Mag nodded with a pleased expression as he rode his bicycle toward the restaurant.

“But the system already gave a 50% discount!!” the system roared with rage.

“Seeing as I’ve already learned out to make it, it would be a waste if I didn’t broaden these foodies’ horizons a little,” Mag murmured to himself as he returned to the restaurant. He strode into the kitchen before bringing out a series of tools and utensils.

“Of course, most importantly, I can’t be the only one in this world to enjoy that torturous yet blissful feeling!”
