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

Chapter 773 Heh, Pathetic

Within a dimly lit pavilion, Quine stood behind Sean with a nervous expression, and asked, “Your Highness, both Alex and the spatial demon patriarch have appeared. Things have spiraled completely out of control; should we use the emergency backup plan?”

“Father is definitely already aware of what’s going on; no one on our side is a match for either Alex or the spatial demon patriarch.” Sean shook his head following a prolonged silence, and a cold smile appeared on his face as he mused, “Besides, Josh should be feeling the heat even more than I am.”

…

“Your Highness, our scouts report that… Alex has appeared!”

A black-robed figure wore a horrified expression as he rushed toward Josh, who was hovering in mid-air atop his griffin steed.

“What?!”

Josh’s body swayed, and he almost fell off his griffin as an incredulous look appeared in his eyes.

The black-robed man’s expression was also filled with shock and horror, but he still quickly reported, “Alex has appeared, and he’s battling the spatial demon patriarch.”

Josh’s expression became extremely strained as he shook his head in disbelief. “How can he possibly be battling the spatial demon patriarch? Th… That’s impossible! He’s already a cripple who can’t even walk!”

The magic caster beside Josh was also aghast as he murmured to himself, “Alex… Alex is still alive… For him to be battling the spatial demon patriarch must mean that he’s recovered his full power…”

“He’s already slain three 10th-tier powerful beings, all of whom were insta-killed…” The black-robed man’s voice was a little hoarse. Even though he was soaking wet from the rain, his throat was as dry as a bone.

“Get everyone to charge over and rescue Princess Irina! Kill everyone else on the fifth street! Alex is already dead and he no longer exists!” Josh drew a cold breath as he dismissed the black-robed figure with a frosty expression.

The black-robed figure looked up at Josh with incredulity in his eyes, and a chill ran down his spine at the sight of Josh’s cold expression. He hurriedly lowered his head again before rushing off to relay Josh’s orders.

Thus, the group of black-robed figures continued onward on horseback, charging directly toward the fifth street. They didn’t know what enemies they were going to face; all they had to do was act according to the second prince’s orders.

“Your Highness, you should get further away from here for your own safety. Alex…” The elderly magic caster’s voice trailed off as he looked at Josh. He was Josh’s most trusted subordinate, so he was naturally aware of Josh’s involvement in the assassination three years ago.

He didn’t know how Alex had survived and returned to the height of his powers, but the memory of Mag slaughtering 10th-tier powerful beings on that rainy night three years ago as if he were chopping up vegetables was still fresh in his mind. During the past three years, he had already lost count of how many times that memory had disturbed his slumber in the form of nightmares.

Now, this man was back, and he could still face off against the spatial demon patriarch.

Just this notion alone was making him tremble uncontrollably in fear.

Josh’s expression gradually became composed again as he cast his gaze toward the fifth street. He shook his head firmly, and said, “No. I’m going to watch him die tonight. If he doesn’t die, then we’ll have to die.”

…

The spatial demon patriarch’s hideous face was twisted with a sinister smile, and his eyes were shimmering with red light. Looking at the countless tentacles hurtling toward Mag and Irina, he could already envision Irina being molested while Alex could only look on in agony and despair.

His favorite youngest son tamed an Eye Beast at just 500 years of age, and he was an extremely prodigious talent. However, his Eye Beast was slain by Alex five years ago, and his demon soul was also disabled. In the end, he plunged into a spatial storm and committed suicide.

The spatial demon patriarch harbored a burning hatred for Alex ever since then.

Three years ago, Alex was assassinated, and he had thought that his son had been avenged, but who would’ve thought that Alex would rise from the dead, and at the height of his powers, no less!

“My son’s dead, so why are you still alive?! You should both die!” The spatial demon patriarch wore a deranged expression as countless octopus tentacles flooded toward Mag and Irina, attempting to inundate both of them.

Mag stood in front of Irina with a grim expression on his face.

Three years ago, Alex carried Amy on his back and fought until he couldn’t fight any longer.

On this occasion, Irina was standing behind him, and he only had two and a half minutes left.

There was no opportunity for a reset, and he couldn’t allow Amy to lose both her parents in one night, so he was already prepared to put his life on the line.

“Howl!!!”

Right at this moment, a loud howl erupted in the distance. A purple figure abruptly appeared in the air before diving straight down like a sharp arrow.

“Ah Zi[1]?” Mag faltered momentarily before looking up at the colossal creature descending from the sky, only to discover that it was a massive purple griffin.

The purple stripes on its body were illuminated by the lightning flashing in the sky, allowing Mag to confirm that this was indeed Alex’s former steed, the purple-striped griffin, Ah Zi.

The arrival of Ah Zi also made the spatial demon patriarch falter momentarily. He looked up at the purple-striped griffin, and the fury in his eyes burned even more intensely. A ball of green flames appeared in his hand, which he slammed into the head of the Eye Beast, and a cold smile appeared on his face as he said, “I’m glad you came, little bird; I can kill both of you together now!”

“Roar!!!”

The Eye Beast suddenly let loose an almighty roar as flashes of green and red light began to shimmer interchangeably over its body. A hint of green appeared within its dead white eyes, and all of its tentacles thickened by twofold. On top of that, they sped up even further as they hurtled toward Mag.

The purple-striped griffin descended beside Mag, and almost at the exact same moment, countless tentacles came crashing down on them, making the ground below cave in by half a meter. The intertwined tentacles created a mountain of flesh, completely inundating Mag and the others.

The entire scene suddenly fell silent aside from the sounds of the ongoing storm and the squirming mass of tentacles.

Everything seemed to be over.

“Heh, pathetic.”

The spatial demon patriarch looked down at the mountain of tentacles with a disdainful sneer on his face. No one had been able to escape after falling under the control of the Eye Beast. All three of them were going to be reduced to the lowliest of slaves.

“Boom!”

Right at this moment, the mountain of tentacles suddenly exploded. Mag held his claymore in one hand as he sat atop his griffin steed. Irina was sitting behind him with her arms wound tightly around his waist as Ah Zi rose rapidly up into the air!
