Chapter 1650: Boss Mag’s Dishes Are Indeed Unforgettable

“I heard Master Rom has come to Chaos City.”

“The Issen Castle has received a huge amount of deposit a while ago, and that was from Master Rom. I have long heard that he had left Issen Castle, but I didn’t expect that he would come to Chaos City.”

Scheer and Ian were sitting across from each other and chatting at breakfast.

Ian bit into the poached egg and chuckled. “Interesting. I wonder if this is the city lord’s castle’s handiwork? They actually made that old antique leave the castle that he has lived in for hundreds of years, and come to spend his twilight years in our city.”

“Didn’t you have some interaction with him when you were young? He wasn’t someone that the city lord’s castle could tempt. The city lord’s castle could never offer the conditions that the Roth Empire offered him in the past.” Scheer used a napkin to wipe her lips.

Ian rubbed his chin with doubt, and said, “This is where I am surprised. What made him deposit all his money in his warehouse in the bank, and come all the way to Chaos City?”

“If I remember correctly, the latest weapon that he forged should be Boss Mag’s cleaver,” said Scheer.

“Cleaver? Could it be that he has come for Mamy Restaurant?” Ian said with surprise, but soon shook his head. “That’s very unlikely. He isn’t very particular about food.”

“Perhaps, you can ask him this question yourself. I don’t think he has many acquaintances in Chaos City.” Scheer got up and left.

“That’s a good suggestion. Although I didn’t make the deal with him then, at least he knows my face.” Ian finished the remaining half of the egg slowly, and then instructed, “Get the carriage ready. I’m going to the city lord’s castle.”

“Master, where should we set up our new workshop?” Joey asked curiously as he helped Rom put on his coat.

Joss was also looking at Master Rom expectantly. Although they had left Issen Castle, as long as they had a workshop, they were still blacksmiths.

“Let’s consider that after we have our breakfast,” Rom answered nonchalantly, and then walked out.

“Do we need to meet up with the caravan?” Joey asked again.

Rom said to Joey, “I’ll leave this to you. The city lord’s castle should be sending someone to bring you there. After I confirm the location of the workshop, you can lead the caravan to the new place with the equipment.”

“Yes.” Joey nodded and strode off.

“Master, the city lord’s castle has prepared breakfast for us…” Joss said.

“We don’t need that. We will go straight to Mamy Restaurant for breakfast.” Rom shook his head, and walked straight to the door.

Dicus had just reached the yard’s gate when he saw Rom who came out, so he smilingly asked, “Good morning, Master Rom, are you going to Mamy Restaurant?”

“Yes, I am.” Rom nodded.

“Then please allow me to bring you there. I am a regular at Mamy Restaurant, and I haven’t had breakfast, either,” Dicus smilingly said.

“I shall have to bother you then.” Rom didn’t reject his offer, as it was equally troublesome to go ask someone else for directions. However, it seemed like Mamy Restaurant was indeed very famous. Any city lord’s castle’s personnel was its regular customer.

The three of them walked out of the gates of the city lord’s castle. Just as they were about to get into the carriage, an opulent yet low-profile black horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of the gates. The coachman opened the carriage door, and Ian came out. He saw Rom and his companions who were about to get into the carriage, and chuckled. “Master Rom, are you going out?”

“You are?” Rom turned to look at Ian. After a moment of pondering, his eyes lit up. “That guy who tried to cheat us out of money?”

“How could you say that? I run a bank…” Ian’s old face darkened. He didn’t expect that he was actually a swindler in Rom’s eyes.

When one reached his level, he didn’t have to get to know any weaponsmith. He didn’t lack anything, and he didn’t need a legendary weapon, either. That thing wasn’t even as attractive to him as an excellent fishing rod.

Maybe he had reached the age that he began to have less and less friends. He had spent some time at the Issen Castle when he was trying to break into the market then. He just wanted to meet an old friend.

“Everyone called you that then. I just didn’t expect I would also deposit my money into your bank one day.” Rom chuckled. The last time he saw Rom was 40-odd years ago. Ian was still a young man then. In order to make Rom deposit his money into his bank, Ian visited the workshop almost every day. He was even more enthusiastic than those people who came to seek a weapon from Rom. Therefore, he left a very deep impression on the weaponsmith.

Decades had passed in a blink of an eye. He had already become the boss of the biggest bank on the Norland Continent and also a little old man.

“I didn’t expect that would have to be accomplished by my granddaughter.” Ian shrugged. He, too, couldn’t help smiling when he thought of the past. He said to Rom, “Master, where do you plan to go? Since we bumped into each other, why don’t we go and have some tea together?”

“Why should we drink tea so early in the morning? I’m going to Mamy Restaurant for breakfast before I go look for a venue for the workshop. I don’t have time for tea.” Rom rejected him as he got into the carriage straight away.

“Then we will make a move first, Mr Ian.” Dicus said with a smile, and then got into the carriage. He instructed the coachman to go to Mamy Restaurant.

He rushes to have breakfast at the Mamy Restaurant so early in the morning. Don’t tell me that he really came here for that chap Mag? Ian watched the carriage go away with surprise. He didn’t expect that his invitation would be rejected. He was still thinking of recommending some good shop fronts for him to set up his workshop because of their friendship.

Ian waved his hand, and said, “Let’s go. We will go and take a look at Mamy Restaurant too.”

The butler who was standing behind him asked, “Master, didn’t you have breakfast before you came out this morning?”

“I am only 70% full. Let’s go check out what magic this Mamy Restaurant has that could make this old chap Rom move thousands of kilometers here.” Ian turned and entered the carriage.

“Let’s go to the Mamy Restaurant,” the butler instructed the coachman. He then entered the carriage, and closed the door.

“Does Master Rom know Boss Mag?” Dicus asked Rom curiously in the carriage.

“I have met him in Issen Castle, and ate his food before,” Rom answered.

“Boss Mag’s dishes are indeed unforgettable.”

“Yes, indeed. That steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers is the most scrumptious food that I have ever had before.” Rom nodded smilingly. He was getting a little excited as he thought that he would be able to eat it again soon.

Dicus looked at Rom, and he could already vaguely guess the reason why Rom moved his workshop across thousands of kilometers to Chaos City.

Boss Mag was indeed a rare talent. He attracted such a formidable weaponsmith to Chaos City with just a dish of steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers.

The horse-drawn carriage stopped, and Dicus took a look out there before he got up, and said, “We have arrived at Mamy Restaurant.”

Rom followed him out of the carriage. When he saw dozens of people lining up in front of the restaurant, he couldn’t help but say with astonishment, “There’re so many people here?”

Dicus chuckled. “We’re already considered early. The lines can even reach into the square.”
