Chapter 1802: Roasted Rabbit Is Super Delicious

The lunch wasn’t extravagant, but it was considered a very good outdoor barbecue feast.
Four wild rabbits that were roasted golden brown were rotating on the grill. The mutton kebabs were spread out in a row on the grill. The scene of 100-odd mutton kebabs turning together was rather spectacular. The aroma of barbecued meat was spread all over.
Amy, Annie, and Anna were crouching next to the grill, and staring at the barbequed rabbits. They gulped together.
“Roasted rabbit is super delicious. Really.” Amy recommended it to Annie.
Anna followed her example, and also recommended, “Roasted sheep is also very nice.”
Annie nodded, befuddled. No one knew if she actually understood them, but her gaze never left the grill.
Mag plated all the mutton kebabs, and placed them on a long table. Then, he removed those few barbecued rabbits from the grill, and turning to all the ladies that were chatting leisurely at the side, he said, “Alright, let’s come and eat.”
Roasted rabbits should be eaten by hand, naturally.
The three children, who had been guarding the rabbits the whole time, got a rabbit leg each, while others went to sit down on their own. After Mag took his seat, all of them started eating.
Annie grabbed a rabbit leg and blinked. Then she turned to look at Amy, who was holding her rabbit leg, and munching happily.
Amy swallowed the rabbit meat, and said to Annie, “You have to munch on it.” Then, she demonstrated by taking a big bite before munching happily.
“Ow.”
Annie looked thoughtful. She copied Amy, and took a bite from the rabbit’s leg. Her clear eyes lit up instantly.
It had a very unique taste. She didn’t know how to describe it, but her mood became happy because of it.
She tried to chew. The rabbit meat that was tender on the inside and crispy on the outside melted in her mouth. This was the first time that she had tasted something, and it seemed like she had just discovered her mouth cavity. The joyous and pleasurable sensation made her smile inadvertently.
After swallowing the rabbit meat, she couldn’t resist taking a bite again. One mouthful quickly followed by another mouthful. She simply couldn’t stop.
So, this is delicious? Annie thought.
Mag looked at Annie, who was eating happily, with a smile on his face too. Although Annie was considered a newborn, apart from her young psychological age, her body was already that of an 11 or 12 years old maiden. Therefore, she could already dine on tougher food like roasted rabbit.
Furthermore, judging from how she learned to dress herself from watching the tablet, she had excellent learning ability. She most probably could use sign language to communicate with them soon after learning it for some time.
After lunch, all of them began to keep the tents and pack up, preparing for their journey back to Chaos City.
Mag called Amy, who was playing at the side. Just as he was about to call Annie, he saw her standing in front of that unicorn, and caressing its head gently. Then, she removed the rope around its neck, and waved to it.
The unicorn used its head to bump against her hand before leaving reluctantly.
“Let’s go, Big Sister Annie. We should go home now.” Amy skipped over and returned, holding Annie’s hand.
The golden dragon took off, and carried all of them on their southwards journey back home.

The news of Chaos City’s crisis being resolved soon spread all over the Norland Continent with the departure of all the races’ powerhouses.
The residents who left Chaos City due to the crisis also began to return.
“Mother, you have to help me. Nothing happened on our trip, so you have to make Father rescind his decision after we return. If we let Gloria inherit the family business, then our Moreton Family’s fortune will only eventually go to an outsider.” Cyril, who had just received the news that they could return to Chaos City, brought his wife and two children to his mother’s room.
Aviva also cried, and complained, “Yes, Mother. Our lives are so tough. My husband has done his best and so much for the family. That lass only knew how to sweet-talk the head of the family, and she got to have the family’s fortune. This is unforgivable.”
Herty and Herny swung Denise’s arms on each side, and coyly said, “Grandmother, look at what we are wearing now. It’s worse than the servants’ attire. Gloria spent lavishly because she knew she was favored. Sooner or later, she’s going to bankrupt the family. You have to help us.”
“This lass is really too much. Rest assured, with Grandma around, I will definitely help you. It’s not time for a junior like her to decide yet,” Denise said angrily as she looked at her pampered son and two granddaughters with a look of heartache.

“Arrange for the flying steeds that depart tomorrow to return in three batches. They will enter the city through different city gates after disembarking from the flying steeds,” Gloria instructed an old servant.
“Yes.” The old servant nodded before then asking Gloria, “Young Mistress, do you want to go to the fabric shop? Should we prepare a horse-drawn carriage for you in advance?”
“Yes. I am ready to go out now. Get the horse-drawn carriage to wait for me in the front yard.” Gloria nodded slightly.
“Alrighty,” the old man replied, and strode away.
Gloria took a notebook before leaving the courtyard, and boarded the horse-drawn carriage that was prepared in advance.
They rarely came to Rodu, so Gloria got herself busy in the past two days. She went to visit a few fabric shops herself to confirm the process of settling the fabrics that were hoarded and the state of the distribution of the new cotton yarn.
Jeffree had already announced his decision, and everyone knew that Gloria had replaced Cyril as the successor of the Moreton Family. Her enthusiasm for the business that her family had already given up was also very surprising.
Gloria didn’t think so much. She was only sure about one thing: as long as Jeffree didn’t step down, she was just the successor.
Cyril had been the successor for over 20 years, and he was out of the game with just Jeffree’s words alone.
However, if the textile business could become profitable, it would truly be her business, just like Blue Suede.
Moreover, she was very confident about that with Mr. Mag, who was a very outstanding business partner.
I wonder if Mr. Mag saw that letter… Fortunately, Chaos City is fine. However, if he saw the letter and left… I wonder if he would know that the Chaos City’s crisis has been resolved now. Sitting in the carriage, Gloria couldn’t help worrying. She felt her cheeks warm up slightly when she remembered how she snuffed the letter under Mr. Mag’s door.

Rodu. The Royal Palace.
An attendant strode into the royal study, knelt on the floor, and said, “Your Majesty, the second prince and Princess Vanessa have arrived in Rodu. The second prince has fainted due to the overwhelming journey and shock. The royal physicians and the Magus Tower’s magic casters are treating him right now.”
“Useless thing. He can even faint due to shock after returning to Rodu.” Andre banged the table, his face blushing due to anger.
The attendant who was kneeling on the ground trembled in silence.
“Summon Sean and the courtiers in for a discussion,” Andre said gravely..
