Chapter 282 The Strongest Being(2)

Suddenly, a knock on the door disturbed him.

"Come in."

"Dad!" Sam greeted.

"What happened, tired of playing around?" Maximus teased.

This bastard son of his only knew how to fight and play the hearts of ladies.

He hadn\'t even internalized the motto of the family and gave birth to an heir.

Over the past decades, Maximus didn\'t know how many women were brought to this stronghold by his bastard son.

Maximus even noticed that some of them were spies.

Fortunately, Sam was super choosy; basically, a girl could only last a few days to a month.

"A little..." Sam unconsciously nodded, forgetting why he came.

He was getting tired of women.

It seemed that all of them were the same, except for the skin.

They were all after his money and handsome face; no one was after his humour and skills.

Sometimes he was even jealous of his brothers who found their destiny early on.

"How about I let you meet some daughters of some Apex Sovereign?" Maximus suggested.

With his connection and current worth, it should be easy to find someone who can interest his son.

"No, that would not be without a challenge."

"How can I still be a man if I rely on my father?" Sam quickly shook his head.

"Aren\'t you relying on me now?" Maximus was speechless.

This son of his was really narcissistic.

His handsomeness, skills, money—all he could show off was from him, his father.

Now he dared to say that he didn\'t need to rely on him to be a man?

Isn\'t that contradictory?

"That\'s different," Sam still denied.

Although he relied on his father for everything.

For the girl that he would be with him for eternity, he still wanted to be the one to choose.

"Fine..."

"Anyway, why are you here?"

"That, my family emblem suddenly disappeared."

"Are you sure?"

"I\'m sure."

Hearing that, Maximus frowned.

Expanding his domain, he noticed a different aura on Sam.

"Eternal Voyager, check to see if there is any anomaly in the stronghold."

[Eternal Voyager: Right away, host.]

[Scanning....]

[Anomalies found.... none]

[Permission to use reserve energy for deep scan]

"Permission."

[Deep Scanning...]

[Anomalies found...]

[An individual with unknown strength was currently on board the stronghold]

[Warning! Warning! Warning!]

[Fatal threat detected]

[Permission to use dimensional weapon!]

Warnings began to blare, making Maximus frown.

"Hold off first, show me the live feed of the anomaly."

...

A little earlier,

Kelvin began to take Malgron around the stronghold.

"Mister, I still don\'t know your name?" Kelvin asked before proceeding.

"Just call me Mag," Malgron thought and replied.

"Mr. Mag, what would you like to see first?"

"Of course, food. I\'m starving..."

"Then, let\'s go right away," Kelvin nodded and called a special transportation vehicle.

Although he didn\'t know why a friend of the Guild leader was hungry, Kelvin still did his thing.

...

Arriving at the Food Section, Malgron smelled the tempting aroma.

"Where would you want to eat, Mr.-" Kelvin didn\'t finish speaking as he saw Mr. Mag arrive at the Shadowcrest Home Restaurant.

As he watched, Mr. Mag enter the restaurant, sweat began to form on his face.

"Mr. Mag, wait!" Kelvin hurriedly chased.

"What?" Malgron frowned, seeing someone stop him.

"That, Mr. Mag, I don\'t have any money to treat you to this place," Kelvin said truthfully.

Although he wanted to please one of the Guild leader\'s friends, he didn\'t want to go bankrupt.

The restaurant in front of him is not something people like him can afford.

He heard that the chef and the owner of this place were one of the guild leader\'s wives.

Just knowing this, how could the dishes inside be normal?

"What treat? I can afford my own food." Malgron waved his hand in disinterest.

What a joke!

Is he short on money?

In the countless epochs, he had been fighting in the abyss.

The crystal merits on him were enough to fill several small worlds.

If not for worrying the abyss would reabsorb the crystal merits, he would even throw it like a worthless stone.

"That, then that\'s fine..." Kelvin nodded reluctantly.

Thinking that as a friend of the guild leader, this man should not be short of money.

Maybe even the food would be free.

...

Going inside they were greeted with unpretentious luxury.

It was too cozy, not like a normal restaurant.

There were only a few tables for customers to sit through.

Malgron and Kelvin quickly found a seat and waited to order.

Soon a puppet had come to them.

"Hello, welcome to Shadowcrest Home Restaurant. What would you like to eat?" The puppet greeted, taking out a menu.

"Give me one of everything from the menu," Malgron waved his hand, not looking at the menu.

"What about you? What do you want? My treat."

"Uh-" Kelvin was already frozen, looking at the prices on the menu.

Dragon Mushroom Caps... Price 100 million Etherium coins.

Minotaur Medallions Beef... Price 70 million Etherium coins.

Blink Forest Risotto... Price 50 million Etherium coins.

Elixir of Immortality Sorbet... Price 120 million Etherium coins.

Frost Giant Elixir Wine... Price 150 million Etherium coins...

Just looking at it, Kelvin was already numb.

He could only afford such food if he saved for decades.

"Hurry up, I\'m hungry," Malgron urged with a frown.

If not for wanting a company for the first time, he would already kill this brat for delaying him.

"Just give me the Celestial Dream cake," Kelvin finally muttered.

It was already the cheapest he could find, costing 30 million Etherium coins.

"Is that all? You\'re a small eater," Malgron mocked.

"I have already eaten," Kelvin reasoned.

Although it was a treat, he still had to eat what he could afford.

....

Soon after a few minutes later, the food arrived.

"Finally, the food is here," Malgron licked his lips, seeing the puppet beginning to deliver the food.

Looking at the high-tier food on his plate, Malgron began devouring it.

Mouthful after mouthful, food after food.

It seems that Malgron had a bottomless stomach.

Kelvin could only silently savor the dessert in his hand as he looked at the monster in front of him.

One had to know the food served in front of them was at least tier 8 food.

The huge amount of energy contained in it made it impossible to quickly digest, yet the man before him ate it like it was nothing.

Soon after a quarter-hour of endless eating, Malgron finally burped in satisfaction.

"Huh~ What a treat~" Malgron muttered as he squinted his eyes.

"Excuse me, can you call the chef? I want to offer my appreciation." Malgron yelled at the empty shop.

Curious, Erica came out to see who had the bottomless stomach and ate her whole menu.

"Mister?"

"It\'s you! What a pretty young lad, your food is too delicious and homely," Malgron praised sincerely.

Eating the food reminded him of the meals he had with his old buddies in their earlier years.

"Thank you," Erica smiled, seeing a customer satisfied.

She had only set up this restaurant because she was bored.

She didn\'t expect to meet this interesting customer.

"Do you need anything?"

"No, I just want to express my appreciation," Malgron shook his head.

"How much is the food we ate?"

"173 billion Etherium coins, mister," Erica said after a quick calculation.

"Etherium coins?" Malgron was puzzled for a while.

"Is it the new currency?"

It seems that the Abyss is really changing day by day.

Just a few hundred years ago, they still used crystal merits, and now it\'s Etherium coins.

"It\'s indeed a new currency; you can just pay us 17.3 trillion crystal merits," Erica nodded and stated the price in Crystal merits.

Although she didn\'t know which cave this man popped up from, not knowing the trend of times, he was certainly not simple.

Just eating all the courses on her menu was already not normal.

Even a tier 9 apex sovereign would be bloated if he ate that much.

However, looking at the man in front of him, it seems that the food barely satiated his stomach.

"Oh, here, keep the change," Malgron nodded and threw out his smallest storage ring.

Receiving the storage ring, Erica quickly took a look inside.

What she saw were piles of crystal merits that nearly burst the storage ring.

Just by estimate, it should be a few hundred trillion crystal merits.

"It\'s too much," Erica said, not accepting such a huge amount.

She didn\'t want to owe some unknown man something.

"It\'s okay, just take it; it\'s too bothersome to count."

"No, I insist," Erica still shook her head.

"Oh, then while you count, serve me another foo-" Before Malgron finished speaking, a man suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Never mind, take out your strongest wine; I\'d like to talk to this gentleman..." Malgron said with interest.

"No need, I have the wine here," Maximus said coldly.
