Chapter 1230: Our Little Princess Seemed To Have Rather Bad Teeth?
Randy, Abraham, and Vanessa made up one table nicely.
Vanessa appraised the restaurant curiously. A wooden balustrade segregated the restaurant perfectly, and prevented the customers’ backs from touching one another awkwardly. There were green plants in the clear hydroponic glass containers hanging on the balustrade, and the exquisite murals on the walls showed all the different sceneries on the Norland Continent.
“What an exquisite restaurant,” Vanessa praised. Even though it wasn’t resplendent, every detail was exquisite. The use of the soothing color of the natural wood and green plants made people calm down and relax quickly.
What was even more amazing was that the customers would all try to make up a complete table by themselves. Humans would sit with orcs, while elves and demons could sit across each other without getting into a serious argument, and they instead would greet each other familiarly as if they were friends.
One would never be able to see such a scene in Rodu.
Or, strictly speaking, one wouldn’t be able to see such a scene once they walked out of this restaurant.
Lola was also sizing up the surroundings in amazement. At the same time, she was wary of that orc who was sitting next to them. If this brute wanted to do harm to the princess, she could only slow him down by hugging his legs to give the princess a head start.
“Are there any private rooms?” Lola enquired softly. “Young Mistress doesn’t like to eat together with others.”
“Mamy Restaurant doesn’t provide private rooms. Moreover, if you can’t make up four people for a table, then you have to share a table with strangers,” Randy explained as he looked at Vanessa’s face veil. This maiden had such beautiful eyes, so why was she wearing a face veil?
“Does it matter?” Abraham looked at Vanessa with a hint of worry in his eyes. He knew Vanessa had dental problems, and she didn’t take part in any big court banquet for the past few years, but Randy was right: Mamy Restaurant didn’t provide any private rooms, and Boss Mag would never cook for Vanessa privately.
This was his restaurant, so even if the city lord of Chaos City came here, he had to obey the rules too.
“It’s fine. I’ll just eat here. I like the environment.” Vanessa shook her head and removed her face veil.
The exquisite face and fair skin momentarily stunned Randy who was sitting across from her.
“Y-Young Mistress.” Lola gazed at Vanessa, who’d just removed her face veil, in a shock. This was the first time that Vanessa removed her veil in front of others. She felt gratified yet worried. It could be dangerous if someone recognized the princess.
Abraham was a little shocked too, but he quickly revealed a gratified smile. His Majesty had tried his best to get rid of Vanessa’s inferiority complex for the past few years. He didn’t expect she would remove the veil on her own accord after she got here. This could be considered a good thing.
Vanessa smiled without revealing her teeth. She grabbed her skirts, feeling a little strange.
She enjoyed the relaxed and pleasurable environment without the shackles of the identity of the princess of the Roth Empire. She was just like any other maiden, so a little flaw shouldn’t be something that was unacceptable, right?
“You can order whatever you want from the menu.” Abraham flipped open the menu and placed it in front of Vanessa.
“Is Mister giving us a treat today? I…” Randy said with a smile.
“You are not included.” Abraham nodded with a smile.
“I knew you are a stingy fellow.” Randy pursed his lips, but he wasn’t angry. He faced Vanessa, who was reading the menu seriously, and said, “Miss Vansa, although you’re already extremely beautiful, I still recommend you to try this savory tofu pudding. It only has 150 portions for every mealtime, and is already the beauty holy grail for many ladies in Chaos City.”
“Oh?” Vanessa’s eyes lit up. Was there really a food that would make people beautiful after eating it?
“Of course, tofu pudding should be eaten sweet—” Abraham suddenly remembered the king and queen’s sweet restrictions for Vanessa, and halted his words. This lass’s teeth became like this because her favorite was sweets. Then, he reluctantly said, “Of course, savory tofu pudding is also very nice. You should have the savory one…”
“Huh? Mister, you finally decided to come to the side of the light today and join the savory gang?” Randy looked at Abraham in a shock. The two of them would have a healthy argument whenever they ordered tofu pudding. He didn’t expect Abraham to recommend Miss Vansa the savory tofu pudding today.
Vanessa had already found the picture of the sweet tofu pudding on the menu. The golden syrup drizzled over the tender white tofu pudding felt tantalizingly sweet, and her eyes lit up upon seeing it. “This sweet tofu pudding looks delicious.”
“Young Mistress, you can’t have any more sweet things.” Lola shook her head with worry written all over her face. The royal physician had said the princess might lose all her teeth if she continued to eat sweets.
Vanessa’s gaze was totally attracted by it. Extending one finger, she pleaded, “I’ll just have one bowl, just one bowl.”
A hesitant look appeared on Abraham’s and Lola’s face. They simply couldn’t resist Vanessa’s pleas, as she was such a cutie.
“Tofu pudding is so delicious and it enhances one’s beauty, so why can’t Miss Vansa have a bowl of it? This is not something that we get to eat every day.” Randy tried to help Vanessa out. Although it was the sweet tofu pudding that she wanted to have, looking at the way she pleaded, the flavor didn’t seem to matter to him anymore.
“Then, you can only have it once,” Abraham said seriously. He was responsible for Vanessa since she was in Chaos City now. Besides getting her back to Rodu safely, he had to take of her every single need in Chaos City. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to face the king when he got back.
“Mm-hm.” Vanessa nodded profusely before smiling at Randy, and said, “Thank you.”
Randy was stocked when he saw the black and yellow teeth in Vanessa’s mouth when she smiled. She had an angelic face, but her teeth looked like those belonging to an 80 years old lady, perhaps even worse. They gave him a shock.
Vanessa saw Randy’s expression, and suddenly realized she wasn’t wearing the face veil. She swiftly used her hand to cover her mouth. Her gaze darkened and she lowered her head.
Lola glared at Randy. This fellow was exactly the same as the rest of them. He hurt the princess’s feelings as well.
Abraham sighed in his heart. Randy’s reaction was normal, but Vanessa’s feelings were a little fragile, so she most likely was hurt.
Randy quickly realized his faux pas, and apologetically said, “My apologies, Miss Vansa. I didn’t mean to offend you.”
Vanessa lowered her head in silence for a while before releasing the skirts that she was grabbing tightly, and raised her head up. She forced a smile, shook her head, and said, “It’s alright. I am used to it.”
Randy was silent as he didn’t have the words to console her.

In the kitchen, Mag looked at the young lady sitting across Abraham with narrowed eyes. Our little princess seemed to have rather bad teeth?
