Chapter 415 Menu Adjustment Package

“So this is Chaos City? As expected of the only city comparable to Rodu on the Norland Continent. I can see beings of all species here; what an interesting city this is.” In a lavish carriage constructed from green tree branches, Blour looked outside at the beings entering and exiting from the city gates, and a smile appeared on his handsome face.

The carriage was being drawn by two brown fallow deer far taller than the average horse, a pair of large black antlers on each of their heads. As such, they made for quite a visual spectacle.

“That elven woman is so beautiful.”

“She sure is. Look at that pretty face; I’ve seen elves in the past, but I’ve never seen such a beautiful one before.”

The eyes of the passersby lit up at the sight of Blour in the carriage, and they all discussed quietly among themselves.

“F*ck off! That’s a f*cking man! Are you all blind?!” A middle-aged dwarf pursed his lips and grumbled. However, as he turned away, he murmured to himself, “But he sure is f*cking beautiful for a man!”

“Sigh, my exquisite beauty always attracts so much attention. How annoying.” Blour heaved a resigned sigh, and sat back in the carriage as he slowly closed his eyes.

“The young mistress of the Brewster Family is working as a waitress in a small restaurant? If word of this were to spread, I wonder how those those old farts waiting for her to go back and replace Princess Irina would react,” Blour murmured to himself. The carriage slowly traveled along the street, and he yawned before shaking his head as he continued, “Forget about it. I’m going to sleep for two entire days once we reach our destination. Nothing can get in the way of my beauty sleep…”

“City Lord, we’ve gathered some information regarding Woodrow’s case. He has embezzled a staggering amount of compensation funds designated for families of deceased miners, and allowed his nephew, Warrick, to commit countless heinous crimes against the residents in that area. There are more than 50 residents who have been killed by them, over 35 of whom were women, and over five of whom were children below 10 years of age. The compensation funds embezzled by Woodrow number in excess of 6,000,000 copper coins. Those are only the statistics that we have gathered from our preliminary investigation. As we delve deeper into the matter, I’m afraid those figures will only continue to increase.”

In the city lord’s castle, an official was delivering a report to Michael, and both of them wore grave expressions as they tried to repress their shock and rage.

Another official quickly rushed in, and reported, “City Lord, the palace lord has already signed these documents. Aside from the elders who are currently conducting other investigations, the remaining 10 elders have formed a team to assist our city lord’s castle with our investigation into this case.”

Michael clenched his fists with a thunderous expression, and commanded, “Tell them to begin the investigation right now! Let me see just how many of these bastards are lurking in Chaos City! I want to see just how much of these heinous crimes is being committed right under my nose!”

“Yes!” That official immediately rushed outside to relay Michael’s orders. The city lord had been truly enraged this time, and some massive changes were about to strike Chaos City.

Michael turned to the other official, and instructed, “Keep up the investigation surrounding Woodrow. Even though it’s already too late to uphold justice for all of his victims, we have to show the rest of the city that we will be exercising a zero-tolerance policy against people like him! Tally up all of the embezzled compensation funds, and allocate twice that amount to all of the families that have missed out on them. At the same time, provide extra compensation to the families of Warrick’s and Woodrow’s victims.”

“Yes.” That official nodded before quickly exiting the room.

If it weren’t for Mag stepping in today to save that widow and her daughter, these things would still be happening every single day, completely unbeknownst to me. As expected, making the world a better place is no easy task. Just Chaos City alone has so many issues that need to be ironed out; it’s going to be countless times more difficult to implement these changes across the entire Norland Continent. Michael made his way over to the window, and fell into deep thought as he stared out into the distance.

Come to think of it, I really have to thank Mag for exposing all of this and bringing it to my attention. At the very least, it gave the city lord’s castle a chance to rectify the issue before it became too late. Michael thought back to that night, when the restaurant owner had rejected him despite learning of the fact that he was the city lord. He was a very interesting man indeed.

…

After cleaning up the restaurant, both Sally and Yabemiya left to go home to make some preparations before the dinner service that night.

As for the penalty rates, Mag didn’t force the issue. He would just have to put a bonus into their monthly salaries. In any case, those costs had already been accounted for in the reservation fees that he was charging the city lord’s castle.

Mag sat down onto a chair, and instructed internally, “System, update the menu. Put the ice cream onto the menu, and list the price as 200 copper coins per two ball ice cream cone, with four flavors available. Also, adjust the categories on the menu to entrees, mains, desserts, beverages… Categorize all of the dishes accordingly.”

“Another reminder from the system: adding new dishes onto the menu is already quite a difficult task; categorizing them is too much!” The system’s stern voice sounded.

Mag pursed his lips, and asked, “Tsk, alright, how much money do you want this time? 10 copper coins? 100 copper coins? Or maybe 1,000 copper coins?”

“Please don’t use money to insult me; the system is not that kind of system! For a limited time, the price of 1,000 copper coins will be slashed down to 998! Just 998! A comprehensive menu adjustment package is being offered for one simple

installment of 998!” The system’s vehement voice erupted, and Mag felt as if there was a surround sound system blaring at him in full force.

“System, turn off your crappy sound system! I’m about to go deaf.” Mag furrowed his brows. As expected, the system didn’t have any shame.

The system immediately launched into an indignant tirade. “This is the new 5D surround sound system that I invented. It provides superb sound quality”

“How about you categorize the menu first?” Mag cut it off before it could finish its long spiel.

The system was silent for a moment before continuing, “Please do not cut off the system next time. That throws off my language coordination, and is also very disrespectful.”

“Do you want the money or not?” Mag was getting a little impatient.
