My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 208: Chapter 68: Son of the Wind

"Furious Wind, heed my command!" Lafra lifted her finger, and instantly a tornado spiraled out from her fingertip. However, she quickly retracted the tornado.

"Naruto, this is the power of high-level magic. Once fully unleashed, it can create something akin to a natural disaster," Lafra said with a smile, taking a sip of her cola. She no longer took cola back from Chen Ze.

According to Lafra, since Chen Ze was her boyfriend, she could just come to his place whenever she wanted to drink cola.

"Amazing!" Naruto exclaimed excitedly, joy clearly written on his face.

"What’s so amazing about this? It’s just a Grade Seven spell. If we weren’t in the store, I could show you a super advanced wind spell – the Hurricane Technique," Lafra said nonchalantly, waving her hand. Grade Seven magic was, after all, something she could probably use to clean her yard.

Chen Ze brought out a serving of chestnut rice and presented it to Lafra, "Lafra, try the chestnut rice I made."

"Okay~" Lafra nodded happily, took Chen Ze’s chestnut rice, and continued instructing Naruto on how to meditate while eating.

"Darling, this is the magic crystal from that movie." Lafra reached out, tore a hole in the air, and pulled out a magic crystal.

"Hehe, watch it together tonight?" Chen Ze asked with a delighted smile, feeling thrilled whenever Lafra called him ’darling.’

"Sure~" Lafra took another sip of her soup and contentedly closed her eyes.

Betty watched the magic crystal in Chen Ze’s hand excitedly. She knew well it was the upcoming "Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day," a movie she had planned to watch with Alisa and Lindsay.

But... she really wanted to see it now!

Betty gripped her broom tightly. She desperately wanted to see the movie so she could spoil it wildly afterwards.

However, she hesitated because the internet generally implied that spoiling didn’t end well, which made Betty a bit wary.

Naruto closed his eyes and let his mind sink deeper. He could feel many white energy orbs around him, and he sensed that these orbs seemed very happy.

Naruto opened his eyes to find himself in darkness, surrounded by magic energy of varying colors. freēwebnovel.com

He stood up curiously and reached out to touch the red magical energy before him.

A wave of heat passed through him, and the red energy shook violently before calming down.

White wind elements kept swirling around Naruto. Strangely, he felt as if the wind element was delighted, as if it were singing.

Lafra glanced at Naruto and smiled. It seemed her apprentice had a particular affinity with the wind element.

Chen Ze also looked at Naruto, who continued to meditate, surrounded by a mysterious current of air.

Chen Ze felt envious. He wished he could be a magician, reciting incantations and releasing the Flame Burst Spell, meditating in a Magic Tower. That would undoubtedly be interesting.

But, alas, dreams were often full and reality stark. After checking, Lafra found that Chen Ze lacked the talent to practice magic, which was disheartening for him.

Chen Ze shook his head, pushing his thoughts aside. Sniffing a burnt scent, he looked down and, feeling somewhat helpless, realized he had overcooked the pork chops.

"Manager, what’s the freshest fish you’ve ever eaten?" Betty, wagging her little tail, moved into the kitchen.

"Isn’t it the Ice Fish? You’ve eaten it before," Chen Ze said, puzzled, wondering who nearly gnawed through an iceberg before.

"Cough cough... Of course, I know that. I meant in your world, Manager!" Betty flicked her tail, looking at Chen Ze with a displeased expression.

Chen Ze dumped the pork chops from the pot into the kitchen waste bin, then stroked his chin.

If it were about fish from Earth, Chen Ze really didn’t have much of a clue, after all, he didn’t much like eating fish, probably stemming from a childhood incident where he choked on a fishbone, and since then, he barely touched fish.

Every time he thought back to his childhood, Chen Ze would subconsciously touch his neck.

After the fishbone choking incident, his parents didn’t pay much attention and resorted to traditional remedies, such as drinking vinegar, eating meals, even chewing on leeks, but nothing worked.

It wasn’t until a day later that they took Chen Ze to the hospital, where the doctor found that the bone had almost pierced a blood vessel.

So, when Chen Xingchen choked on a fishbone, Chen Ze directly took her to the hospital.

"Manager?" Betty looked at Chen Ze with confusion, had the manager just spaced out?

"If you’re asking about fish from this world, then probably the tastiest would be the pufferfish," Chen Ze gave his answer.

Pufferfish weren’t something to mess with, improperly prepared they were full of deadly poison, and ingesting them generally meant you wouldn’t even make it to the hospital before being sent to the crematorium.

Still, despite the risks, many customers risked their lives for the taste of pufferfish.

Modern society had taken significant steps to prevent deaths from pufferfish poisoning, for instance, chefs allowed to serve pufferfish dishes had to pass specific tests.

But even so, cases of pufferfish poisoning still occurred occasionally.

"Pufferfish? What is that?" Betty blinked, she hadn’t heard this name before.

"It’s a fish," Chen Ze picked up another piece of pork chop and tossed it into the pot, starting to deep fry it.

"Manager~ can you make it~" Betty was excited.

"No," Chen Ze rolled his eyes, what a joke, preparing pufferfish was no simple task.

Moreover, Chen Ze’s culinary school hadn’t started yet, and even if he wanted to learn, there was nowhere to do so.

"Stinky bones, what are you doing here?" Betty was about to speak when Lafra’s voice came in.

Then Betty immediately scurried out, "Mr. Stan... Eh? It doesn’t seem to be..."

Chen Ze went out to have a look, then saw Ainz Ooal Gown, who had just visited last time, sitting on a chair.

"Long time no see, guest," Chen Ze greeted with a beaming smile.

Lafra looked at Ainz Ooal Gown with surprise, feeling the immense magical energy emanating from the Undead.

"Do you have anything to eat, manager?" Ainz Ooal Gown turned to Chen Ze.

"Chestnut rice, would you like a serving?" without hesitation, Chen Ze gave his response.

For a Squirrel, a simple dish of Japanese-style chestnut rice might be much more appreciated than delicious cuisine from another world.

"Chestnut rice, huh? That is... quite a nostalgic dish... then, I’ll have a serving of chestnut rice," the Squirrel’s fingers tapped the table.

"Alright, just a moment."
