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

Chapter 2259

Early next morning, Mag heard someone knock on the door and he saw Miya and Elizabeth standing outside when he opened it. He showed shock and surprise on his face as he smilingly said to Elizabeth, "You're back?"

"Yes. I'm back." Elizabeth nodded and her cold face had a smile too.

There was no long speech or any exaggerated reaction. There was just a simple 'You're back' and it made Elizabeth choke up.

Yes. There was still a place that expected her to return and people who still missed her.

Mag let the two of them in and poured two glasses of warm water for them as he said, "You guys came early today, so take a seat first. You can look through the menu first. There are some new products released recently. Tell me if you have something you'd like to eat later."

"Mm-hm." Elizabeth nodded with a smile and sat down at a table close to the kitchen with Yabemiya.

She flipped open the menu and there were indeed a few more dishes added to it. There were soup dumplings and shaved noodles, which didn't look bad.

Miya recommended dishes to her. "You can have a steamer of soup dumplings and a bowl of shaved noodles. They taste great together."

Mag went into the kitchen and looked at the sisters through the glass window. He was thinking that there should have been a touching father-and-daughter reunion last night.

He had thought that Rankster would bring Miya away. After all, he was a proud fellow. How was he going to allow his daughters to work as servers in the restaurant?

However, not only did Miya stay, Elizabeth returned as well.

Even though he didn't know what happened, Mag could already imagine Rankster's angry expression.

To the restaurant that was short on manpower, Elizabeth's return was naturally a good thing.

Connie was busy with the restructuring of the Twilight Forest and Camilla went back to be the queen of the vampires. They were in need of people.

"Oh yes. Sister, do you know that Annie has become even more awesome recently? She has already become a very famous illustrator." Miya got up and took a Little Mermaid picture book from the counter.

Elizabeth looked at the exquisite picture book and said with amazement, "Annie drew this?"

Miya nodded and replied, "Yes. This is just one of them. She has drawn many of them and they are selling very well. They are in short supply every day."

Elizabeth flipped through the picture book and praised it. "It's awesome."

During breakfast, Mag announced Elizabeth's return officially.

"Let's stay for supper after tonight's dinner service to celebrate Elizabeth's return," Mag declared.

Amy munched on a bun and nodded as she said, "Sure. I'll try not to sleep after supper."

Mag said to all of them, "There's something else. You guys said you wanted to register to be part-time teachers at Hope School previously. Have you guys thought it through? Who among you wants to register? I'm going to check on the school's construction process after the breakfast service, so I can hand in the list then as well."

"I do." Gina was the first to register.

"I'm afraid I will spank those disobedient little ones uncontrollably, so I can give one to two lessons per week. I need to use the rest of the time to calm my emotions down." Babla raised her hand up.

Hannah said she wanted to teach the children how to brew rum. This was a very professional skill, even Mag hadn't learnt everything yet and had to ask Hannah to confirm.

Shirley wanted to be the teacher of archery. As an outstanding elven archer, she was very happy to impart her archery skills to the children.

Miya was very enthusiastic, but she couldn't figure out what she could teach the children, even after thinking for a long time. Hence, she could only give up.

"I think Annie could teach the children drawing. She can draw so well, so the children will definitely like her." Miya suggested.

Everyone's gaze landed on Annie who was munching on the soup dumpling.

Annie halted and looked up at all of them with an agape mouth and a befuddled expression.

"Annie, do you want to be a little teacher?" Mag asked her smilingly.

With Annie's current drawing techniques and skills, it was more than enough for her to be an arts teacher.

Annie was taken back before she shook her head and replied with sign language, "I-I don't know how to teach others to draw."

"Mmm. Forget it then. Let's wait till Annie wants to teach others how to draw." Mag nodded with a smile and didn't insist.

Annie still couldn't talk now, so this was a great obstacle to teaching.

During breakfast service, Mag saw Rankster again. He was dressed like the rich merchant from yesterday.

Mag could sense a faint hostility from him. Obviously, he minded that Mag got his two daughters to work as his service staff.

However, even though he was a little hostile, he kept eating the soup dumplings. It didn't affect his appetite at all.

"Seems like I need to go get a house first. It needs to be big to accommodate both the children. Of course, I stayed here for the kids and not for the food." Rankster walked out of Mamy Restaurant and narrowed his eyes comfortably when the sunlight fell on his face.

Line up, eat breakfast, watch his children work.

He never seemed to have such an easy life before.

"What should I do next? Mmm… Let's go chat with an old friend. Urien seems to live over there? He was merciless the last time we fought…" Rankster mumbled as he walked towards the magic potion shop.

He needed some time to get used to this retirement lifestyle.

***

Mag made a trip to Hope School. The four storey teaching building was already being built. The Night Elves construction team had demonstrated their professionalism.

Hundreds of elves with specific jobs worked energetically and rapidly builded.

Many teachers on their break were watching from afar and they made amazed sounds every now and then.

The elves were elegant and sophisticated in many people's impression, but it was easy to neglect their gift in construction. If they had gone to see those exquisite buildings behind the textile factory's walls, they would be shocked beyond words.

Mag confirmed the construction's process with the construction team's leader and ascertained the time to move all the kitchenware and furniture. He also made sure that the construction team could evacuate in time and wouldn't affect the school's reopening.

Then, Mag asked a teacher about the location of the principal's office.

"Please come in." Mag heard a familiar voice as soon as he finished knocking. He pushed open the door and entered.

Luna looked up from a pile of documents and showed an expression of surprise when she saw Mag come in. She put down the pen and stood up. "Mr. Mag, what brings you here?"

"I came to check on the construction's progress and discuss some matters with you. Did I bother you?" Mag asked smilingly.

"It's fine. I'm just ascertaining some construction items. Please have a seat here."

Luna asked Mag to take a seat while she made a cup of tea for him.
