Chapter 958 Avenge Me!

“Gulp.”

Many customers swallowed their saliva simultaneously. They were scared. No one would attempt to dine and dash at Mamy Restaurant ever again. Not only would they be blacklisted, they also would be subjected to a huge fine. That sum was so big that it was shocking.

However, almost everyone thought they deserved the money. After all, that dragon “threw it away” himself, and he was wrong in the first place.

But, would there be trouble after taking it?

They could come to find trouble with Little Boss, if they weren’t afraid of retribution from Urien and Krassu.

“Let me carry the fine in.” Yabemiya walked out with a smile and lifted that treasure chest. It felt heavy in her arms. It was a good thing that she was strong and had no problem lifting this treasure chest.

Amy followed her in and jogged to the kitchen entrance. She poked her head out, and asked Mag, “Father, I seized a treasure chest. Where shall I put it?”

Mag looked at the treasure chest in Yabemiya’s arms with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Although he had heard the customers cheer earlier, he hadn’t expected Amy to seize such a valuable treasure. After pondering for a while, he said, “Let’s put it under the counter for the time being.”

“Alright.” Yabemiya nodded and put the chest under the counter.

“System, how much is the value of the treasure in this chest?” Mag said in his heart.

“After the conversion done by this system, the total value of all the gemstones, rare metals, and dragon coins, etc., is about 315,000,000 copper coins. This is an evaluation based on the current market value because some of these rare metals and gemstones will only appear at auctions. Hence, the total value will fluctuate within a certain range,” the system replied swiftly.

Mag raised his eyebrow. He didn’t expect Amy to achieve three small goals by simply teaching a lesson to a dine-and-dash dragon.

Of course, what surprised him more was that this amazing treasure was discovered on a 5th-tier little dragon.

It wasn’t a secret that giant dragons loved treasures. Given giant dragons’ prowess and long lifespan, they could indeed collect a very big fortune by the end of their lives.

But, this huge fortune should be found on those powerful giant dragons that had lived for hundreds of years, and not on a little dragon. That didn’t seem very reasonable.

Unless this little dragon had been extremely lucky and found himself a rich treasure, the only possibility was… he was a brat from a rich family.

Judging from his previous behavior, it was most likely the second possibility.

It was a huge sum that came to them very easily, but it wasn’t a sum that they could just simply keep for themselves.

“Father, isn’t Amy great?” Amy looked at Mag with anticipation, asking for his praises blatantly.

Mag looked at Amy with indulgence. He nodded, and said, “Yup. Amy maintained the restaurant’s order and helped Anna collect the bill. Well done.

“Anna completed her cashier’s responsibilities brilliantly. You did well too.” Mag proceeded to praise Anna too.

Amy and Anna smiled happily.

These two little ones had no concept of the value of the treasure in the heavy chest, so they continued with their cashier’s work after receiving Mag’s praises.

After the customers lamented about the situation, they didn’t continue to pay attention to the booth.

However, the customers were extra cooperative with Anna doing her cashier’s duties after the example they saw.

After the evening opening hours were over, Yabemiya, Babla, and Firis left first after finishing their work. Shirley was preparing to leave with Anna after she did a thorough cleaning, but she halted when she reached the door. She asked Mag, “That chestful of gemstones, what do you intend to do with them? If I have guessed correctly, that little dragon should have some kind of status among the red dragon tribe.”

“We’ll leave it here for a few days. If no one comes forward to claim it, then we’ll take it as the fine. If someone comes to claim it, then we’ll reason with them,” Mag said to Shirley with a smile.

Shirley pondered for a while before she smiled, and said, “Giant dragons have never liked to reason. But, the red dragon tribe isn’t a powerful dragon tribe, as they only have one 10th-tier giant dragon. If Amy’s teachers are around, they won’t be able to win if they are ‘reasoning’ with you.”

“That’s good then.” Mag nodded, and his smile became brighter.

In this world, “the fist is the absolute principle” was how things were done in many instances. Although it was a little unreasonable, sometimes it made things much more interesting.

After Shirley left with Anna, Mag locked the door and then lowered the blinds before he carried the rather heavy treasure chest out from the counter.

Amy came over with Ugly Duckling, and curiously asked, “Father, what are you doing?”

“I haven’t touched so much money in a long time. I wanna have a feel.” Mag smiled as he flipped open the cover.

Lights were refracted in the gemstones and reflected brilliant radiance. The entire restaurant was filled with the splendor of the jewels.

10 seconds later, Mag closed it with a bored look.

Such tacky things. Even in another world, I still can’t accept them. Mag shook his head. He had seen too many paintings and jewels that were worth tens of millions in his previous life. One of his mom’s hobbies was collecting jewellery. Any single item from her jewellery box was worth more than this entire chest. Thus, it was difficult for him to feel any strong emotions looking at this chestful of treasures.

The only thing that he was interested in was… how many strength points could he exchange from the system with this windfall?

“System. If I exchange all the money in this chest for strength, how many points could I get?” Mag asked directly in his heart.

…

The system was silent for a long time before it finally quietly said, “This sum wasn’t obtained by the Host in the restaurant’s normal operations, so there isn’t an exchange clause that is applicable in this case. This system has to do a comprehensive risk assessment before being able to answer this question. The time needed for the assessment is approximately three days.”

“Then, you shall assess it.” Mag put the treasure chest into a safe in the counter. This was one of the improvements done after the system upgraded the restaurant. A rather spacious safe was installed in the counter to keep the restaurant’s daily huge turnover. Then, he brought Amy upstairs to wash up and sleep.

…

“Father! I was almost killed, and I was robbed of the treasure chest you have given me! I’ve lost everything! You have to avenge me!”

On the Red Dragon Island, in an empty cave, a wretched voice rang out.
