Mag cleared his throat and said calmly, “About 400. A little too many so I have to trouble Principal Luna to help sieve some of them out. I’ll still have to go over today to eliminate some students. It’s also a worry to be chosen too many times.”
Babla stared at Mag for a while and with all her upbringing as a princess, suppressed the urge to curse at him.
Shirley also looked at Mag with mixed emotions. Although she did not say much, it was just as though she had lashed out at him internally.
“Impressive. I didn’t expect so many children to aspire to be chefs,” Miya exclaimed.
“These children are pretty smart. The least thing you have to worry about when staying in the kitchen is filling your stomach,” Camilla said with a smile.
“These children need to be free of such insecurities for them to really learn and choose what they want for their future,” Irina said worriedly.
Mag was slightly stunned. Irina’s words had reminded him.
Although these children chose him, how many of them really want to become a chef? Are they just trying to escape hunger?
Mag invested and created Hope School so that these children could have a choice in what future they wanted.
“I’m full. I’ll have to leave first. The flying steed that I booked is about to set off.” Angela put her bowl down and said to everyone, “So long, Sisters!”
“We’re not sisters.” Mag emphasized.
“It’s alright, I don’t mind,” Angela said with a smile.
“I mind!” Mag said seriously.
Angela waved her hand and walked out the door.
“Boss, we haven’t been launching new products recently. There are customers asking me about new products,” Miya told Mag. “Have you been too busy recently?”
Upon hearing that, Mag was stunned. He was so busy with his side hustles recently that he did neglect his main job. He said with a smile, “I actually have prepared some new products but I’ve been too busy recently, so I haven’t had the time to launch them.”
He had not launched the Hot Noodles with Sesame Paste or the mousse cake.
The Hot Noodles with Sesame Paste could be launched in the next couple of days but Mag was still considering the mousse cake.
This was a little different from ice cream. Mag found that it would be strange to add it to the restaurant’s menu.
“I will be launching a new noodle dish in a couple of days,” Mag told Miya.
“Alright.” Miya nodded.
“Miya, this is the timetable. As my assistant, you’ll have to go to Hope School with me for classes after we’re done with our daily operations.” Mag passed a copy of the timetable to Miya.
“Mm. Alright.” Miya received the timetable and studied it carefully before keeping it safely.
“I want to go to class too.” Kiddo swallowed the dumpling in her mouth. She looked at Mag and begged him. “Father, I want to go to class too. Kiddo wants to go to class with Big Sister Amy and Big Sister Anna.”
“Kiddo, you’re still young. When you grow older, you’ll be able to go to school,” Mag said with a smile.
“No, Kiddo wants to go to class. Kiddo wants to learn.” Kiddo shook her head. “Mama said that learning is important, more so than eating.”
Mag looked at the little one with a helpless smile. She was too small, around two years old, and could not even walk straight, yet, she wanted to go to school. That would be putting the teacher on the spot.
“Kiddo, be good. When you’re a year older, Mama will send you to school,” Gina said gently as she stroked Kiddo’s head dotingly.
Kiddo pressed her lips together and squeezed her exquisite eyebrows together. She let out a snort and looked at Gina with grievance as she said, “Mama, is Kiddo stupid? Is that why Father doesn’t let Kiddo go to class?”
Mag: “…?”
Mag felt very wronged. He just felt that Kiddo was too young and was not at the right age to go to school.
“How can that be? Kiddo is the smartest. I’ll bring you along to learn magic, shall we? It’s just next door. I’ll let my Master teach you magic.” Amy slid down her chair and ran to Kiddo. She snapped her fingers loudly and an icy blue flame appeared at the tip of her fingers. “Just like this.”
“Wow!” Kiddo stopped kicking up a fuss immediately. Her eyes were shining brightly.
After that, she copied Amy and snapped her fingers.
Boom!
A crack formed on the ceiling and the entire restaurant shook violently.
Silence.
Everyone looked at Kiddo in shock.
Meanwhile, Mag’s eyelids twitched.
“System, your darn house isn’t sturdy at all.” Mag dissed inside.
“Host, the restaurant’s defense level is at the 10th-tier. The attack just now was way past the 10th-tier. That was a very reasonable reaction,” the System explained.
Mag fell silent. That seemed… about right.
If not for Kiddo’s adorable looks, he would have thought it was Thanos who snapped.

“I think it’s about time we renovate the restaurant. We did not take into full consideration back then when we were renovating it so we did not tear down the old house which was originally here. I think it’s not very sturdy,” Mag said with an awkward smile.
Upon hearing that, everyone agreed. Kiddo was still so young. How could a casual snap of her fingers cause a crack in the house?
“Nothing?” Kiddo looked at her fingers in bewilderment and attempted to try again.
“It’s not like that.” Gina quickly reached over to stop Kiddo from snapping her fingers again. She put her hands gently around Kiddo’s hand and said, “Kiddo, raise your hand slowly and look at your palm. After that, imagine the state of water.”
Whoosh!
A giant wave appeared in the restaurant out of nowhere, crashing right towards the table.
“Hold!” Babla lifted her finger and the giant wave was suspended in mid-air.
Everyone could no longer remain calm as they looked at the raging wave above their heads.
“Is prenatal education so dangerous right now?” Yabemiya swallowed her saliva.
“Er… What kind of talent is this? Is this the legendary prodigy?” Camilla was stupefied. Magic of that level was already close to an advanced 7th-tier magic caster.
And that was just Gina teaching Kiddo to attempt feeling the water element.
“That’s fun!”
Kiddo looked up at the giant wave above her head and clapped her little hands excitedly.
Gina quickly waved the giant wave away and said embarrassedly, “Sorry for the alarm.”
“It was indeed alarming.” Babla nodded. She looked at Kiddo and said seriously, “I actually felt pressure from this little one.”
“I was alarmed too. I felt useless…” Firis nodded along. She realized that right now, she actually could not withstand that giant wave just now.
“I guess Kiddo is a genius,” Irina said with a smile.
