Seeing the curiosity in Angelica's face, Alex smiled and said, "Well, since you're so curious, I'll tell you now."
"As you heard me say, that place is called Dragon Diner, a very good restaurant."
"What makes this restaurant special compared to others is that the food they serve is made using dragon meat!"
"Dragon meat?!" Angelica exclaimed in surprise.
As someone from the capital, even though she's only from the slums, Angelica still knows quite a few things.
Dragons, a creature that can be said to stand at the top of the food chain in the world.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com
It possesses great strength and can destroy countries in a matter of seconds.
That is Angelica's impression of dragons based on the things she learned about them.
So, hearing that there is a restaurant that serves dragon meat, Angelica felt a magnitude of shock.
Her reaction caused Alex to chuckle once again.
Then he said, "When you eat the food there, you will be more shocked. So, let's stop standing here and go to Dragon Diner!"
With Alex's words, the group started moving, going in the direction of Dragon Diner.
After walking for a while, Alex arrived at the place where he found Dragon Diner last time.
But when he arrived there, the whole establishment where the Dragon Diner was before suddenly vanished, leaving only an empty plot of land.
"Huh? I clearly remember that it was right here last time, where the hell is it now?"
Scratching his head, Alex looked at the empty land with confusion.
"Woof!"
Ferri also frantically looked around, trying to look for Dragon Diner.
"I guess I'll try asking about it."
Saying that, Alex stopped a random passerby and said, "Excuse me, can I ask you something?"
"Oh, what is it?"
Pointing at the empty plot of land, Alex asked, "Do you know about the restaurant called Dragon Diner here?"
"Oh, that? Well, they suddenly closed down just the other day and yesterday, the whole place just suddenly disappeared."
Alex frowned, "Huh? Do you know why?"
The passerby shook his head, "No, I don't have a clue as well."
After asking for a few more questions, Alex let the passerby go.
Sighing, Alex felt disappointed, "What the hell happened. How could they suddenly just disappear like that?"
Saying that, Alex turned to Angelica and said, "Sorry, Ange, it seems like we can't eat at Dragon Diner now."
"It's alright, Brother Zero. But it seems like you really want to eat there, so I wonder what happened to them."
Angelica said with curiosity.
Alex sighed once again and said, "I guess there's no other choice but to eat at another place."
Whimper~
Ferri also let out a whimper and disappointedly hung his head down.
In the end, the group left can only leave with disappointed faces.
Even though Dragon Diner is close, they still have to eat.
She held her small head with her both hands and panicked inside.
'What did I just do?! Why did I agree to talk to him? I should be running away!' She thought.
She looked in the direction where Alex and his group were sitting, only to see that Alex was also looking back at her.
Chichi hurriedly looked away, feeling anxious in her heart.
Chichi took a deep breath to calm herself and readied herself.
"Okay, you have nothing to be worried about. He will only talk to you."
Muttering such words, Chichi managed to calm down a bit.
Then, Chichi went behind the counter to talk with the restaurant owner, asking for permission to talk to Alex for a while.
The restaurant owner is a kind old woman who readily gave consent to her when she asked for permission.
"Alright, go talk with your friend for now. Tell me when you're done, okay?"
"Thank you, Ma'am!"
After thanking the owner, Chichi didn't delay anymore and headed towards Alex's table.
Seeing Chichi approaching, Alex waved his hand and said, "Is it alright to talk now?"
Nodding, Chichi said, "Yes, we can talk now. But please make it fast, I'm still in the middle of my work."
Alex nodded understandingly, "Okay."
"Actually, my question is quite simple."
Saying that, Alex's face suddenly became serious as he stared directly at Chichi's eyes.
Then he said, "Why did Dragon Diner suddenly disappear?"
Chichi doesn't seem surprised at Alex's question.
When she heard it, Chichi let out a sigh.
Chichi remained silent for a while before she started speaking.
With sadness in her voice, she said, "It started just the next day after you came to Dragon Diner."
"A noble suddenly came to the restaurant and caused a ruckus."
"He humiliated the customers eating inside the restaurant at that time and even stepped on their tables."
"Because of this, Sister Paula and Sister Azul have no other choice but to come out."
When she said that, Chichi stopped for a moment and said, "Actually, Sister Paula and Sister Azul are biological sisters. Also, they have a special identity within the Kyisis Kingdom."
"However, because of some circumstances, they had to hide away from other nobles."
"That same circumstance is also the reason why they started Dragon Diner."
Hearing that, Alex can't help but become curious.
"What is this circumstance that you speak of?"
Hesitation appeared on Chichi's face but in the end, she shook her head.
"I'm sorry, I don't have the right to divulge their story to some stranger. It is their privacy. If you want to know, you can just ask them yourself. "
Alex paused for a moment before he nodded.
"You're right. Forget it, please continue with your story."
Chichi opened her mouth and continued talking.
"As I said, Sister Paula and Sister Azul were both hiding from the nobles of the Kyisis Kingdom. But because of the ruckus that the noble started in the restaurant, they had no other choice but to come out."
When Alex hears that, he can't help but think that there's some conspiracy.
