Chapter 2209: Master! You’re Finally Back!
“Mr. Mag.”
After closing for the day, a voice sounded just when Mag was about to shut the door.
Mag pulled the door open again and was shocked to see Gloria standing outside.
“I came to send you some clothes.” Gloria walked over. Behind her, Mars was moving things down from a horse-drawn carriage.
“However, that black dress is rather complex and our tailors had already been working overtime to rush it out. Even then, I’m afraid it will only be completed in two days. Are you in a rush for it?” Gloria asked apologetically.
“It’s alright. Actually, I just mentioned it casually that day. Those clothes are rather complex to make. The tailors have worked hard for the past few days.” Mag was apologetic as well.
Those clothes were prepared for the actors from the Black Cat Opera troupe.
The actors of the Black Cat Opera have good basics but their costumes were really too old.
If, as an audience sitting downstage, you were watching a story about breaking free from the restraints of the aristocrats in pursuit of personal freedom and dreams but the wealthy master of the house was wearing patched clothes…
It’s very unrealistic.
Mag had intended to take a trip to Rodu to settle the handover issues for Saipan Tavern. At the same time, he wanted to talk to Miss Black Cat about dreams and the future, as well as to send them some gifts.
Mag received the clothes from Mars and told Gloria, “Take a seat.”
Gloria shook her head and said gently, “It’s alright. It’s very late and you’ve just ended business, so you must be tired. Rest well and I shall not disturb you.”
“In that case, do go home earlier. It’s cold outside and I’m sorry to trouble you to come all the way here to personally deliver these,” Mag said apologetically. He did not expect Gloria to put so much effort into this.
She was already known to be a talented lady in business, comparable to Scheer, a rising star in Chaos City, and the heir to the Moreton Family.
“I’ll get the tailors to rush out the dress that’s remaining and deliver it to you.” Gloria bade farewell to Mag and left in her horse-drawn carriage....
Mag watched the horse-drawn carriage disappear into the distance before pushing the pile of thick clothes into the restaurant.
“This little lady puts extra effort into matters with regards to you.” Irina stood at the counter, looking at Mag with a seemingly gentle smile.
“Gloria is a very responsible person when it comes to work,” Mag said without blushing.
He placed the clothes on the counter and pulled out one of the costumes to take a look. The material used was of a very good quality, and it was even done better than what he had requested. The style was done exactly like how he had designed and it was done very well.
It seemed that Blue Suede’s tailoring team had improved over this period. Otherwise, they would not be able to bring out such a high-quality product in a short span of time.
“I think everyone from the Black Cat Opera would like it.” Mag put away the clothes. This little gift would be a token of his support for those chasing their dreams.
“Helena announced that she will go into seclusion after returning to the Wind Forest. Isn’t that a little strange?” Irina told Mag who was looking at the clothes.
“She wasn’t injured at the frontline, right?” Mag was rather shocked.
“She did not even meet an opponent worthy of her level, where would the injury come from?”
“In that case that is rather strange.” Mag frowned.
One had to know that the situation in the Wind Forest was rather chaotic and it was the kind of chaos Helena did not want to see.
The Night Elves had torn apart the class system in the Wind Forest and the passionate flame supporting freedom had been ignited everywhere in the forest.
The elves in the lower class had started standing up and the elves who had enjoyed the noble treatment had started reflecting on themselves.
The threat from Cthulhu had been resolved and the peace accord had been signed. By right, the first thing Helena would do upon returning to the Wind Forest should be to settle the chaos.
However, she had actually gone into seclusion?
“There were no other arrangements made?” Mag asked curiously.
“All she said was that she would pass everything to Sally to handle on her behalf. No other arrangements were made.” Irina nodded.
“Could she really intend to ignore this matter?” Mag was suspicious.
Although Sally was the princess chosen by Helena and was also seen as the successor of the Elf Queen, she appeared to be sympathetic towards the Night Elves and the lower class elves. Everyone could see that for themselves. She did not hold the same attitude as Helena on this issue.
Right now, Helena suddenly announced her seclusion and threw the mess to Sally. That was something Mag did not expect.
“What do you intend to do?” Mag asked Irina.
“I intend to do nothing.” Irina shook her head and said with a smile, “Let Sally give it a go. After all, she is the Elf princess right now and I am but the lady boss of Mamy Restaurant.”
Mag smiled upon hearing that. Irina did not wish to return to inherit the throne from the Elf queen. If Sally could do well, she would not have to go through the trouble of interfering.
Power could be an addiction to some and a burden to others.
Irina was the latter and so was Mag.
That’s great.
Isn’t it better to just tend to Mamy Restaurant and be a carefree owner of a restaurant instead of having to worry about the world all day?
***
“From today on, Sean Edward will be the crown prince of the Roth Empire and will become the sole inheritor of the Roth Empire’s throne.”
News from the Roth Empire broke out and caught the attention of the various races.
Some were shocked while some expected it.
Josh had been possessed by the Devil and died at the frontline of the ice sheets.
Although Sean had lost an arm, he still managed to secure a free ticket to the throne.
As for the third prince who was obsessed with carpentry, no one would see him as a competitor for the throne.
However, the feud between Sean and Alex was also something everyone was focused on.
Alex had sealed the Devil twice and saved Norland Continent from a catastrophe, thus, earning respect from the various races.
Previously, he had sworn to kill Sean.
Now, Andre had made Sean the crown prince of the Roth Empire and this could very well be a move to protect him.
If Alex insisted on killing Sean, he would be pitting himself against the Roth Empire.
Alex, who came from the Roth Empire, would probably have to think twice before taking action.
***
Mag only found out about this on his second day after arriving at Rodu.
“Are you still going to kill him?” Irina asked with a smile.
“I would still kill him if I should but it is indeed not the right time now,” Mag said with certainty.
Saipan Tavern, which had been closed for days, was opened again.
“Master! You’re finally back!” Mala called out agitatedly as she stuck her head out from the second floor window.
Mag turned back and saw his little disciple in name. He said with a smile, “Mm, I went out to play and I’m back now.”
Eiffie also peeked her head out of the window. When she saw Mag and his family, she was surprised and shocked.
