Chapter 2278: Let’s Eat Together Whenever You’re Free
Everyone looked at one another quietly with a weird expression.
The sky monkey that Amy said was an extremely rare magic beast in the magic beast mountain range. Apparently, it was a palm-sized little monkey with golden fur all over it. It was obedient, smart and adorable, so people loved it and the rich always wanted to have one as a pet.
However, don’t look down on these little things. They were 3rd-tier magic beasts and extremely gifted in hiding and escaping. They ran around freely in the forest and normal mercenary squads could do nothing to them.
Furthermore, they usually moved about in the deep parts in the magic beast mountain range. It was almost impossible to find them at the periphery of the mountain range.
Amy’s small request had indeed stumped them.
“It’s not easy to catch the sky monkey, but we’ll get you a little owl when we meet one in the future,” Sivir said with a smile.
“Owl?” Amy turned and glanced at Ugly Duckling in shock before waving her hands and saying, “No, thanks. It’s ugly.”
Amy played with Sivir and the rest for some time before running to the kitchen’s entrance and asking Mag, who was busy grilling the kebabs, “Father, when can I go hunt magic beasts with Big Sister Sivir? I want to go to the magic beast mountain range to play.”
“There’s nothing fun at the magic beast mountain range. Let’s go find some sea animals to play with at the seaside in a few days,” Mag replied smilingly. Amy’s power was way above Sivir and her teammates now. It would make them look very bad if they had to bring the little one into the mountains.
“Is Big Sister Sivir going with us?” Amy asked again.
…
Mag thought about how Sivir looked in a swimsuit and sucked in a breath. He shook his head and said, “We are not very familiar with each other, so I can’t really invite her.”
“‘It’s fine. I’m very familiar with her. I’ll invite her if you feel embarrassed to do so,” Amy said and then ran to Sivir.
Mag looked at Amy’s back with a gratified expression. This child was so teachable.
Amy went to Sivir and expectantly asked, “Big Sister Sivir. We’re going to catch sea animals in a few days. Do you want to join us for the trip?”
“Sea animals?” Sivir was slightly taken aback.
“Yes. We’re going to the Boundless Sea Realm. Do you want to join us?” Amy nodded.
Sivir regained her wits. Mag should be bringing them to play at the Boundless Sea Realm, so the little one invited her to go along with her.
After experiencing the incident two days ago, the Rose Mercenary Squad decided to take a seven days’ break, so she was rather tempted by Amy’s suggestion.
Having grown up in Chaos City, becoming a mercenary, going into the magic beast mountain range constantly and leading a risky life, she had never seen the sea before.
But, this invitation came from a child after all.
“It might not be suitable for me to go.” Sivir looked at Amy.
“I came to hire you. This is the deposit.” Amy took out a dragon coin and put it in Sivir’s hand. “We’ll gather at the restaurant in the evening in three days.”
Before Sivir could reject her, Amy had already run away.
Sivir looked at the dragon coin in her hand in exasperation. This was the first time that she was hired by a four-year-old little girl.
“Is it Boss Mag who asked Little Amy to invite our captain for a vacation?” Monkey said smilingly.
“I think… it’s possible.” Scott nodded.
“That’s the most sophisticated way of going after a woman. Getting his daughter to do it.” Scott showed a thumbs-up.
“Shut up.” Sivir rolled her eyes at them and flipped the dragon coin in her hand, but she couldn’t help wondering if this was Amy’s idea or Mag’s idea.
She didn’t have to worry about Mag doing something to her during the journey. Even though the food he made was very scrumptious, he was still a chef. She would win even if they were to fight.
Moreover, she trusted Mag’s character. With Amy going on the trip as well, there was even no need to worry.
Perhaps they wanted to go explore some unknown and dangerous places, so they wanted a mercenary to go with them for safety.

Sivir felt that her guess should be correct. She was rather happy that her professional capability was being recognized.

Amy ran to the kitchen’s entrance and made an ‘ok’ hand gesture to Mag.
Mag smiled. The little one was rather capable.
They were going to the Boundless Sea Realm for a vacation and relaxation. They were going to enjoy the wind and the sun, surf and swim. It was naturally fine to bring another pretty maiden along too.
Mag stared at Sivir for some time. He wasn’t being lecherous, he was just taking her measurements.
As a locally born and bred Chaos City resident, she hadn’t seen the sea before, so she wouldn’t know about a swimsuit.
See how considerate he was? He even prepared a made-to-measure swimsuit for her. This was called sophisticated kindness.
Sivir seemed to sense something and she looked towards the kitchen. She saw Mag’s serious side profile as he cooked.
The handsome side profile was focused and serious.
It was rather sauve!
Vivian came to the restaurant alone. Luna was too busy, her dad was also very busy and her mom couldn’t bother to line up, so she came to eat the grilled fish alone.
Fortunately, she knew the people who shared the table with her, so it wasn’t that awkward.
Vanessa looked at Vivian, who was eating the grilled fish and advised her, “Big Sister Vivian, you should eat more vegetables. You can’t just eat grilled fish.”
“It’s fine. Don’t bother about me. I’ll just eat the grilled fish.” Vivian waved her hand and continued to eat her grilled fish.
This medium-sized grilled fish together with two bowls of rice was just enough for her.
Queen Syndra looked at Vivian smilingly. “She’s just after your grilled fish. Vivian, if you don’t eat the other dishes, she will feel embarrassed to eat your grilled fish.”
Abraham covered his mouth and chuckled at the side. He had long realized that; otherwise, when did Vanessa ever ask someone to eat something?
Vivian finally looked up and looked at Vanessa thoughtfully. After thinking about it seriously for a moment, she nodded as if she was making an important decision. “T-then, you may have some too. A little bit is fine.”
As she said this, she placed a piece of chopped chili into her bowl and ate a piece of fish.
“Alright!” Vanessa’s eyes lit up and she immediately picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks. She then picked up her bowl to hold the fish and fed it into her mouth. A sated smile appeared on her face instantly.
The crispy skin, the smooth and tender meat, the unique charcoal-grilled aroma and delicious sauce together with the best spiciness, suddenly exploded in her mouth.
“The grilled fish is simply too delicious!” Vanessa opened her eyes with tears in them.
Eating with her mother and uncle was so hard. The insanely spicy fish was on their blacklist, which caused her to lose so much happiness.
She could still order what she wanted in the past, but it was one against two now, so she couldn’t even resist.
Vanessa invited Vivian, “Big Sister Vivian, let’s eat together whenever you’re free. It’ll be my treat.”
“You like to eat grilled fish too?” Vivian asked.
“Yes. I love it!” Vanessa nodded.
“Alright. Let’s eat grilled fish together whenever we have the chance.” Vivian immediately nodded. She knew Vanessa wasn’t lacking money. She liked rich, young mistress friends like her who loved to eat grilled fish.
