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

Chapter 875 Do You Not Know How to Talk? Are You a Mute?

Snarr had been in Chaos City for close to a month now, and he’d been searching for Alex this entire time.

Much to his surprise, a piece of news that shook the entire continent was spread from Rodu a few days ago. Alex was still alive, and he’d slain four 10th-tier powerful beings on his own, including the patriarch of the spatial demons, Benson.

This came as a complete shock to everyone across the entire continent, including Snarr himself.

Three years ago, all of the information that he’d gathered indicated that Alex had been completely crippled, and that it was impossible for him to recover from those injuries.

Otherwise, those beings that stood at the pinnacle of the Norland Continent would’ve never allowed Alex to emerge from that rainy night alive.

They only wanted him to live as a cripple so he could suffer pain that was worse than death.

However, three years later, he was back, and he was just as powerful as ever.

All of the beings who had played a role in his assassination were in complete disbelief. Even a divine deity shouldn’t have been able to heal those injuries!

Snarr was also in disbelief because if all this were true, just how stupid did those beings have to be to have allowed Alex to survive?

10th-tier powerful beings were extremely rare even across the entire Norland Continent; how could they have made such a stupid mistake?

There was only one knight in the entire history of the Norland Continent capable of killing three 10th-tier powerful beings as well as Benson along with his Eye Beast on his own, and that was Alex.

Of course, what served as even more concrete proof of his return was that his purple-striped griffin, which had disappeared for three years as well, had also reappeared.

There was no one in this world aside from Alex who could tame that griffin.

This news created a massive stir across the entire continent, and countless powerful beings were undoubtedly suffering sleepless nights as a result.

Snarr was very elated that the princess had reunited with Alex, and he wasn’t disheartened in the slightest that all the work he’d done in the past three years had gone to waste. After all, this was most definitely good news.

However, just as he was about to return to the Wind Forest, another piece of shocking news emerged: Irina had been deposed as princess by the panel of elders.

This piece of news had also shaken the entire Norland Continent.

If it weren’t for the existence of Alex, Irina would most definitely be the most powerful being on the entire continent among the current younger generation.

Even while being attacked by six 10th-tier powerful beings, she’d managed to kill three of them, which was an extraordinary feat that very few people on the continent could achieve.

With the lengthy lifespans that all elves possessed, it was almost scary to imagine what kind of heights she’d scale to in the future.

However, just as everyone had thought that she would become the next elven queen for sure, she was deposed during the ceremony.

Snarr was quite surprised by this news, but he could also deduce the factors that had led to this. He’d also heard that Alex had appeared in the Wind Forest on the same day, and that Irina was now in seclusion in her cave, so at the very least, she was still alive.

As Irina’s right-hand man, he naturally couldn’t return to the Wind Forest at a time like this. As such, he was very concerned about Firis. He’d heard that Alex had arrived at Chaos City two days ago before announcing a firm stance against mercenary squads that hunted down elves, and that an elven woman had accompanied him at the time. Thus, he’d been wandering Chaos City for the past two days in order to tie up all of the loose ends in his investigation as well as to search for Firis.

Much to his surprise, Firis was in this very restaurant, and this discovery filled him with both elation and befuddlement.

During this recent period of time, he’d expended a lot of effort to search for Alex and his daughter. Even though he hadn’t found any concrete leads, all of the information that he’d gathered suggested that Chaos City was the likeliest place for the two of them to be.

After investigating the few half-elves in Chaos City, everything seemed to be pointing toward this Mamy Restaurant.

Now that Alex had returned, there was no need for him to continue investigating this restaurant, but his curiosity still urged him to come here and give himself some closure in his investigation. Thus, found himself outside the restaurant, looking at Firis with a shocked expression on his face.

From what she’s wearing, it appears that she’s an employee of this restaurant already. Is this just a coincidence, or was it by design? Snarr turned away from the restaurant and inspected Mag out of the corners of his eyes.

Just as Snarr was getting wrapped up in his own thoughts, the restaurant doors were opened, and a half-elf little girl emerged with a curious look on her face. “Your hat looks really good, Uncle Straw Hat; did you weave it yourself?”

What?! An incredulous look immediately appeared in Snarr’s eyes.

This half-elf little girl had blue eyes, long silver hair, and a little pair of virtually translucent pointy ears. Her intricate facial features looked as if they’d been carved out of a block of the finest jade, and she was the spitting image of Irina in her childhood.

Snarr appeared to be a young man, but he was actually already 200 years old. Even so, he was considered to be quite young in the elven race.

As someone who’d been designated to protect Princess Irina by the elven queen, he’d watched her grow up through every stage of her life. Even though he was nowhere near as powerful as the princess now, he could still clearly remember what the princess had looked like as a child.

This little girl was a half-elf, but her facial features were almost completely identical to those of a younger Irina, so how could he not be surprised?

“Do you not know how to talk? Are you a mute?” A hint of pity immediately appeared in Amy’s eyes, and she cast a quick glance back at the restaurant before carefully pulling out a copper coin that she handed over to Snarr as she whispered, “Go by some food for yourself, Uncle Straw Hat. I saved this up in secret, so you can’t let Father know.”

Snarr looked at the pure smile on Amy’s face and the copper coins being held in her little hands, and he experienced a sense of deja vu, just as if he were looking at the princess as a little girl who was holding a snowball in her hands.

He was wearing tattered clothes and an old straw hat, so he really did look like a homeless man at the moment.

After a brief hesitation, Snarr accepted the copper coin before giving Amy a warm smile, and then taking a final glance at the restaurant before slowly departing.

Regardless of whether he had guessed right or not, the best thing he could do for now was clearly to leave everything as it currently was.

As for approaching Firis to ask her about what had happened in the Wind Forest, that would just have to wait until a more suitable opportunity arose.

Back when Alex had appeared in Rodu, there was a sign on this restaurant’s door stating that the owner had gone to Rodu to cook for the king.

When Alex had appeared in the Wind Forest and Chaos City a few days ago, the owner of this restaurant had gone out for a day to procure new ingredients.

Too many coincidences simply culminated in irrefutable truths.

After ascertaining all that, Snarr sped up even further, and quickly disappeared into the crowd on the plaza.

“What a strange uncle.” Amy shook her head before setting Ugly Duckling down in front of the restaurant to play with it.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a Catering Association uniform made his way over to Amy with a smile, and asked, “Little girl, is the owner of this restaurant here?”
