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

After hearing Amy’s question about reproduction between a white cat and a black bear, the first thing that sprang to Mag’s mind was obviously Gun Gun ¹ .

It was an adorable creature that could feed itself just by acting cute all day; it could be said that it was the most leisurely and carefree animal in the world.

However, at their core, Xixi and Lulu were still dryads. They only became a bear and a white cat, respectively, after their transformation. As for whether their baby would transform into a panda or not, that was not something Mag could be sure of.

From a theoretical standpoint, they satisfied all of the prerequisites for that to happen. As for whether their genes would facilitate the birth of a panda, that was something that he was looking forward to seeing.

Xixi faltered slightly upon hearing that question. She then turned to Lulu, and a warm smile appeared on her face as she replied, “Lulu says he’s going to have many babies with me. We’ll have bear babies and cat babies so we can have the best of both worlds.”

“Then… After you give birth, can I play with your babies?” Amy’s looked at Xixi with an expectant gaze.

“Of course they can play with little Amy. You’ll be their big sister,” Xixi replied with a smile. She was also looking forward to that day.

Xixi soon finished her third bowl of soup, and ate half a bowl of chicken as well. Faint green light began to shimmer from her lower abdomen, and her face returned to its normal color.

“Mag, Amy, Aisha, and Yabemiya, I am truly grateful to all of you for saving Lulu and myself.” Xixi supported herself using the counter, and extended a bow of gratitude.

“It wasn’t much, don’t mention it.” Mag shook his head with a smile.

“Don’t worry, Big Sister Xixi. If any more bad people turn up, Amy will chase them away,” Amy promised with her hands clenched into little fists.

“That’s right. We all think that you two are good people, while the werewolves are bad people, so it’s only right for us to help you,” Yabemiya chimed in as she nodded.

Sally merely nodded, and didn’t say anything. She was looking at Xixi’s lower abdomen with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Earlier, when she was administering treatment to Xixi, she had discovered that there was something in Xixi’s body that could absorb life magic. That entity was completely different in nature compared to life magic, but somehow was a little similar, and she found it quite intriguing. There was even a period of time when she had thought that she was hallucinating.

However, she sensed the very same aura from that green light. Xixi had been severely wounded, but was able to recover and move about so quickly; that strange type of magic energy clearly played a major role in that process.

The chicken soup was very delicious and nourishing, but it was still inferior to actual medicine.

“Lulu, let me feed you some chicken soup. You have to drink some more so you can get well soon.” Xixi slowly made her way over to Lulu with a bowl of soup in her hands.

Xixi appeared to be close to a full recovery, and Lulu was very relieved. He shook his head with a doting smile, and said, “You drink it. It’s much more satisfying for me to watch you drink.”

“No, if you won’t drink it, then I won’t drink it, either.” Xixi pouted as she shook her head. She blew gently on a spoonful of chicken soup before bringing it over to his lips, and she smiled as she said, “You drink the soup and I’ll eat the chicken. That way, we’ll be able to finish this entire bowl of soup.”

“Let’s go have some dinner. Otherwise, we’ll all be stuffed full of dog food soon.” Mag picked up Amy and strode out the door.

Yabemiya and Sally trailed along silently behind them. The dryad couple had just survived a massive ordeal, and it was best to give them some privacy.

Lulu looked into Xixi’s eyes, and caressed her face with his hand. He was feeling very self-critical as he said, “Xixi, I’m so useless. I wasn’t able to protect you.”

“Who told you that?! Lulu is my hero! There is no one better than Lulu in this world, nor is there anyone who loves and adores me as much as Lulu!” Xixi countered vehemently.

You adore me like a child, while I adore you like a hero.

…

After inviting Urien over for a late dinner, Sally used her magic to wash the dishes before departing with Yabemiya. Their busy day had finally drawn to a conclusion.

Mag locked the door and closed the blinds after they left. Amy was herding Ugly Duckling as they ran laps in the restaurant, and Mag looked at them with a warm smile on his face. He wasn’t in a hurry to go upstairs. Instead, he sat down in a chair to watch them.

“Meow~” Ugly Duckling cried for help. It had only nibbled on two mouthfuls of braised chicken, but was now being forced to run 10 laps in the restaurant. That was physical torture!

Mag chose to ignore it as he looked at Amy with a doting smile. She was currently wielding a little leather whip as she followed Ugly Duckling, hot on its trails. It was much more important to him that his little girl had a fun time.

After finishing the ten laps, Amy picked up the exhausted Ugly Duckling in her arms, and gently stroked its head as she said, “You’re such a good little kitty. That’s 10 laps for today; you have to keep this up tomorrow as well.”

Ugly Duckling immediately fainted in her arms upon hearing that.

“Let’s go upstairs. It’s time for bed. You have to go to Master Urien for lessons tomorrow. The lessons start at 7:30, so you can sleep in a little.” Mag turned off the lights, and carried the two little fellas upstairs.

Amy was tucked in after brushing her teeth. She turned to Mag, and asked, “Father, the principal is really powerful. Will I become as powerful as him in the future?”

“Of course. As long as you study hard under the tutelage of Master Urien and Master Krassu, you’ll become an even better magic caster than Principal Novan.” Mag nodded with a smile. She had inherited the bloodlines of a 10th-tier knight and a 10th-tier elven magic caster. Furthermore, she was being taught magic by two 10th-tier magic casters, so she really did have an immeasurably bright future ahead of her.

“I wanna be a super magic caster…” Amy closed her eyes with elation, and soon fell asleep.

“Before you become a super magic caster, let me protect you.” Mag planted a gentle kiss and on her forehead, and adjusted her blanket before turning to leave. At the same time, he said internally, “System, I want to buy a sword.”

“The system can provide countless choices. There are long swords, daggers, claymores, rapiers… You name it, I have it…” the system replied as if it were a salesman.

“The same sword as last time will do, but I have a condition,” Mag interjected in a calm voice.

“Please specify.”

“As my strength increases, I’ll have to constantly change to different swords. You have to repurchase the swords that I discard,” Mag said with a serious expression.

“You’re being unreasonable! The system creates custom-made swords, and those swords will only be a perfect match for you! They’ll be useless after I repurchase them, so there’s no way I’d be able to sell them again. I refuse!” the system grumbled.
