BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53 Motivated Workers
Kupido Town, Lucky Restaurant.
While Alex went out to complete some quests, the Don and his men are also busy with running the restaurant.
"Egg fried rice for table 3!"
"Honey Glazed Chicken on table 1!"
"Boss, table 5 ordered Adobo!"
…
One after another, the server entered the kitchen, telling Don the orders.
Don looked up while stirring the pot and said, "Okay, it\'ll be done in 5 minutes!"
After that, he turned his eyes back to the dishes he\'s preparing.
At this time, Don is already sweating because of exhaustion and the heat from the kitchen.
However, even though he\'s already tired, there\'s still a smile on his face.
Everytime he felt like he\'s about to give up, he muttered to himself, "I can activate my \'World System\' today if I work harder!"
Like a mantra, he repeatedly said that while cooking.
Outside the kitchen, Ben is also busy with managing the counter but not as much as Don.
Here, he\'s in charge of welcoming the customers as well as taking the orders of some of them.
Actually, Ben can just relax and let the other \'workers\' handle everything but he just can\'t because of Alex\'s promise.
Ben\'s original responsibilities are actually managing the workers and making sure that nothing goes wrong with the restaurant.
He also makes sure that every customers is comfortable while dining to make sure that they get a good experience.
Anyway, the restaurant is still packed at this hour and people are still lining up outside.
Because of that, Don and Ben can\'t help but become more and more happy even if their body is so tired.
Similarly, the other thugs or workers are also working very hard.
Some of them are acting as servers while there are also some who are acting as security guards.
"What\'s your order?"
"Please line up properly."
"Mister, please don\'t push the people around you or else we will have to ask you to leave."
"..."
With everyone working hard, the restaurant became more and more prosperous.
Because of that, almost everyone in town started talking about Lucky Restaurant.
It even reached the ears of Baron Davis, the Lord that governs Kupido Town!
But Alex didn\'t know any of that.
Right now, he\'s busy hunting monsters in the Black Forest.
"Ha!"
Alex kicked a boar that\'s charging towards him.
The boar flew back and hit a tree because of that simple kick from Alex.
[You killed a level 3 Wild Boar, +20 experience points.]
After hearing the notification, Alex was sure that the boar died.
"Good, it didn\'t explode and turn into mush meat this time."
"Looks like I\'m starting to get some control over my strength."
This boar is actually the 8th monster that Alex met since he and Ferri came back to Black Forest.
But, it is also the first monster that managed to stay intact after dying from his hands.
The reason for this is that Alex\'s strength increased at a fast speed, not letting him get enough time to perfectly adapt and control it.
That\'s why, he decided to not use any skill when hunting this time, to exercise control over his strength.
At the same time, it is so that he won\'t ruin the body of the monster since he needs to gather proof of subjugation for the quest.
Because his skills are too powerful and just ruins the corpse of the monsters he kills, going melee is the solution that Alex thought.
Anyway, after practicing for a couple of times, Alex has finally become able to control his strength so that the monster\'s corpse won\'t get destroyed.
Alex approached the dead boar and with a sharp stone, he cut off the short tail of the boar.
This is the proof of subjugation for wild boars.
After doing that, Alex sighed, "Collecting subjugation proofs is such a hassle."
"It\'s also such a waste since I can\'t use [Sacrifice] on monsters that I defeated."
Shaking his head, Alex stopped thinking about it and thought something else.
"It\'s been a while since Ferri left, I wonder how\'s it going now on his side."
Alex let Ferri go and hunt in the forest in his own since he can\'t be of any help to him now.
Instead of letting Ferri do nothing around him, it\'s better to let it hunt and increase his level.
After thinking about Ferri for a while, Alex once again started looking around for monsters.
"Well, time to go back hunting."
…
Earth.
Raven Family\'s Manor.
At this time, everyone is gathered inside an office room.
They are all seated on the sofa while looking in the same direction.
And that is at Jonathan.
At this time, Jonathan is sitting behind a table with his hands crossed together.
Looking at everyone, Jonathan\'s eyes finally focused on Kris.
"My granddaughter, what do you think of the ideas suggested by your father?"
Hearing the question, Kris shook her head fiercely as she said, "No, no, no!"
"It\'s not possible grandpa."
"I won\'t do such a thing like seducing a man or whatever."
"Also, we\'re talking about my friend here. I don\'t want Alex to think that I\'m acting weird because I want something from him."
Kris\' eyes are firm and determined.
Just by looking at it, Jonathan is sure that no matter what they do, Kris will not agree with the plan concocted by her father.
With a sigh, he said, "Fine, then we will respect your thoughts and not force you to do anything."
Kris\' eyes immediately lit up, "Really Grandpa?!"
Then she turned her head to her father, Rolando, and said, "Dad, you heard Grandpa, you\'re not allowed to force me with this plan of yours!"
Rolando looked down, in disappointment, he sighed and said,
"Sigh… What are we going to do then? Are we just going to let Alex be after he got the [Dragon Egg]?"
Hearing Rolando\'s words, Jonathan turned his head sharply to him and said, "And who\'s fault do you think that was?"
Rolando fell silent after that.
Slightly shaking his head, Jonathan said, "Don\'t worry, I just said that we will no longer force Kris into the plan."
"I never said that we will stop with our plan."
