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

Chapter 1199: The Emperor Star Will Fall And A New King Will Emerge!

Before sleeping at night, Mag told Amy and Anna a little story as usual.

Amy cuddled Ugly Duckling, which was already asleep, as she lay beside Anna, who had her eyes closed, but quickly opened them again to look at Mag.

“Anna, what’s wrong? Can’t sleep?” Mag asked softly. This little girl seemed to have something on her mind.

“I was thinking if Big Sister Firis has reached the place, and if Big Sister Shirley is doing fine now…” Anna nodded with a worried face.

Mag was taken aback. So this little fellow was worried about Firis and Shirley. What a sensible and kind child. Smiling, he said, “So that’s what you’re worried about. Today, the people that sent Firis to the north came back. They told me that Firis had already met up safely with the Night Elves. On top of that, they even saw Shirley. She was fine, and was not hurt. Now, they even have food. Firis would make delicious food for them.”

“Really?” Anna’s eyes lit up.

“Mm-hm.” Mag nodded with certainty.

“That’s great. I’m glad that they’re alright,” Anna said with a smile.

“So, our little Anna has to go to sleep quickly. Otherwise, it would be their turn to worry about whether you slept and ate well,” Mag said with a smile as he tucked Anna in.

“Mm-hm.” Anna closed her eyes obediently.

Mag switched the lights off, and went to the balcony to practice his sword for a while before showering and lying in bed to think about the delivery service.

Most restaurants would use the delivery service as a means for additional income. However, that was on Earth. The convenience of ordering food on your phone and the large number of delivery services available laid the foundation for the efficient delivery service.

Now, there were no telephones, much less handphones. How customers had to order the food posed a problem to Mag.

Bringing this world forcefully into the telecommunication era just for delivery service is too unrealistic. The number of years needed to do that is not even the biggest problem. What’s important is how tomorrow’s mission can be completed. Mag dismissed the idea of making telephones widespread. He pondered for a while, and an idea flashed past his mind. Something the system had said previously gave him quite an inspiration.

…

The city of Tatari was located in the northwest of the Roth Empire. It had an army of 50,000, and was the empire’s most important town at the northwestern border. The orcs’ territory was just a little further to the west.

The orcs and the Roth Empire had gone through wars of varying intensity over the years. The orcs had been looting the villages and little towns on the empire’s border for decades taking advantage of their strength and flexibility, causing the people living at the border to live a life of misery.

However, after Alex settled in Tatari, instead of chasing the looting orcs away, he led the army to reclaim the land and kill the orcs at the border of the empire multiple times, letting none of them off.

Ever since then, the orcs did not dare to trespass the border again. However, wars of varying intensity still did not cease at the northwestern border.

Alex was no longer the city lord of Tatari. The city lord of this mighty city was now the first prince, Sean. As the chief commander of the northwestern army, Sean also took up the role of being the city lord of this important northwestern city.

Just yesterday, Sean returned to the city lord’s castle in Tatari from Rodu.

Sean and five other armored generals were in the meeting room of the city lord’s castle.

A middle-aged general looked at Sean, and said, “Your Highness, the empire’s northwestern army of 300,000 is now under your control, and they are all strong and fearless knights who have fought with the orcs for a long time. However, His Majesty still hasn’t appointed you as the heir to the throne, and has even been changing the second-in-command of the northwestern army so regularly these days. Do you think…”

“You want me to revolt?” Sean asked coldly as he looked at that general.

That general did not shift his gaze. He stood up decisively, and said, “Your Highness, you are talented and brave. You have been at the border for decades, risking your life with all of us. I’ve already treated you as the successor to the throne. The second prince has been leading a life of luxury in Rodu ever since he was young. He knows nothing about training and formations, nor does he know about the cruelty of the orcs. If he was to become the king, he would definitely not be a good one. If the king insists on appointing the second prince as his successor, we are all willing to serve you as our king!”

The other generals also rose, and respectfully said to Sean, “We are all willing to serve you as our king!”

Sean looked at all the generals and his expression relaxed a little. However, his tone was still as deep as he said, “My father is still in the pink of health. Don’t bring up the subject of the succession anymore, and do not say a word about it to others. Otherwise, all of our lives would be at stake.”

“But…” That general still wanted to go on.

“Josh might have the support of the magic casters, but a magic caster is still just an aide. He won’t be able to amount to anything, so he should be the one who’s anxious instead of me. Why should we be so anxious?” Sean said with a slight smile as an evil glint flashed past his eyes.

…

Rodu, in the Magus Tower.

Standing in the Magus Tower, one could have a clear view of the entire Rodu, even the palace.

The status of the Magus Tower increased as the number and strength of the magic casters slowly increased. Their might was already comparable to that of the army.

The magic casters of the empire would have some sort of mark of the Magus Tower on their body. They fought like the knights in the army to protect the empire’s land and people, so they were all deeply loved and respected by the people.

At this moment, on the top floor of the Magus Tower, Josh was standing by the window, looking at the similarly towering palace, and wondering how much longer it would take before he could officially move into that palace, and become the most powerful being in the Norland Continent.

Several years ago, as the second prince, he never had the thought of becoming the owner of that palace. The attraction of magic was far greater than the throne embedded with jewels to him.

It was not until he met that elf princess who left her trace at the top floor of the Magus Tower. It was love at first sight.

After that, Alex appeared.

After that, her heart ran off with Alex.

Alex was a man that would make any other man in the world pale in comparison. It was just like the sudden appearance of the brightest star, and even he, the second prince of the empire, was easily overlooked.

From that day onwards, he understood that even if he spent his entire life practicing magic, he would never defeat Alex even at the last moment of his life.

So he started longing for and pursuing power. An individual, even if he was a god, could still be bitten to death by countless ants.

Three years ago, he thought that Alex was dead, and Irina’s heart was finally going to be his.

However, he appeared again three years later, still as powerful and unparalleled. Once again, he took her heart away.

“Sir, when can I become the king of the Roth Empire?” Josh asked as he turned back to Richard, who was behind him.

“Almost.” Richard stared intently at the palace before looking up at the sky. A bright star was slowly becoming dim as though it was covered by a layer of fog. He muttered to himself, “The emperor star will fall and a new king will emerge!”

…

In a large courtyard in the northwestern part of the palace, tens of carpenters were busying around under the bright lights.

Yuri was sitting on a high stool, watching a suit of battle armor in front of him become mightier and stronger as he let out a sigh. “Silly. Do you reckon that a lot of people will die if this is used on the battlefield?”

“Your Highness, His Majesty had already said before that this would be used to protect the borders and prevent a lot of deaths and injuries of our people,” the servant at the side replied softly.

“If it was just to protect the border, who else would dare to invade our empire other than the giant dragons? If the giant dragons were to invade us, this timber is simply useless.” Yuri shook his head, and was still as melancholic as he looked up at the sky and lamented, “I suddenly want to look for that little fool.”
