Mag looked at Firis’s determined eyes and pondered. Then, he nodded. “That’s good. You have already learnt how to cook the Yangzhou fried rice and braised chicken and rice. You can always make changes to them according to the ingredients available to create delicious food. It’s time to let you go.”


  “Thank you, Mr. Mag.” Firis bowed deeply at Mag. After she straightened herself, she asked with a blush, “After the war is over, if I could come back again, would you still want me?”


  “Of course. Why would I not want such an outstanding employee like you?” Mag nodded. However, these words seemed…… to have raised a red flag?

  “Only an outstanding employee……” Firis was a little disappointed, but she soon smiled and nodded. “Then, I will definitely make it back.”


  Mag continued, “I have already been asking around for Princess Irina’s current location for you. I admire her greatly for her noble character in fighting for the freedom of the common elves. The current situation of the Night Elves shouldn’t be too good. Hence, I will be donating some foodstuffs in my name, and you can travel with the team that is escorting the food items. In this case, you could take care of one another on the road.”


  “Food?” Firis was taken aback, but she soon realized the princess was no longer the one that was worshipped and loved by all the elves. The conditions of the Night Elves had to be very dire, and she actually hadn’t thought of that. Mr. Mag was indeed a very thoughtful person.

  “Yes. Take a break first, Firis. I’ll bring you to a place after the breakfast service is over. I still have to make some arrangements personally.” Mag nodded.

  “Oh, okay.” Firis quickly nodded. She didn’t even know where the princess was now, and she didn’t expect Mr. Mag had done so much for her secretly. He even made all the arrangements in advance.

  “Firis, are you leaving us too?” Yabemiya came forward to hold Firis’s hand sadly. “First it was Aisha, then it was Shirley, and now you are going to leave too. I can’t bear to let you go.”


  “Yes. Are you elves all so busy?” Babla was also looking at Firis perplexedly. The Moon Nation had never had a war before. All its people were living in harmony. They even seldom quarreled or fought.

  Everyone crowded around her. Even though Firis didn’t talk much normally, she still established rather good friendships with all of them. It made them sad to bid farewell to her.

  “I am going to cook for the princess. I will be back once the war is over. I guess Miss Aisha and Miss Shirley will be back too.” Firis was looking at them with reddened eyes. She, too, felt sad to say goodbye.

  Here, she had gained friendship for the first time. She also had people to care about her apart from the princess.

  What a warm place. If possible, she would like to stay here forever.

  “Let’s get ready for operation.” Mag glanced at his watch and walked to the kitchen.

  The busy breakfast service was over very quickly. Mag removed his apron and hung it on a rack. After asking Firis to wait for him, he went upstairs to change his clothes.

  Mag came down and said, “Let’s go.”


  Firis acknowledged Mag’s words, and then followed Mag to the door.

  “Wait a minute,” Anna said from behind right at this moment.

  Firis turned around.

  Anna jogged to Firis and held up a little rabbit that was knitted with white yarn in her little hands. She softly said, “Big Sister Firis, if you see Big Sister Shirley, please pass this little rabbit to her. Tell her I will be always waiting for her to come back.”


  Firis looked at that plump rabbit and nodded. “Okay. I will pass it to her if I meet her.”


  “Thank you.” Anna’s tears were already rolling about in her eyes. She threw herself into Firis’s arms, and chokingly said, “You guys, must…… must come back.”


  “Mm-hm.” Firis’s eyes were red too and she gave Anna a tight hug.

  “Firis, write to me if you guys can’t hold on anymore. I will bring the Moon Nation’s army to help you.” Babla lifted her hand, trying to make her expression as nonchalant as possible.

  “Count me in too.” Elizabeth raised her hand.

  “I…… I can’t do much, but if you need me, I will come too.” Yabemiya raised her hand too.

  “Thank you, everyone.” Firis gave all of them a brilliant smile and waved. “Goodbye, everyone.”


  Mag looked at all of them, and he suddenly had a warm feeling in his heart. He didn’t know when it started, but all the people in the restaurant were giving him a sense of camaraderie. Through the simple and happy daily interactions, they had formed a warm relationship.

  This was the friendship that he had never had in his previous life. It had nothing to do with money and status. The simple and beautiful relationship had touched the softest part in his heart.

  Mag said secretly in his heart. No matter if it was Irina, Sally, Shirley, or Firis, he simply couldn’t stand aside and do nothing.

  Mag went out with Firis on the bicycle. After leaving Aden Square, they went to the north of the city and turned into a small alley. After making multiple turns in there, they stopped in front of a rather old courtyard.

  “Wait here for me, Firis.” Mag walked to the courtyard and knocked. Three long knocks and two short knocks.

  After a moment, the door cracked open inward and an eye peeped out. The eye lit up instantly when it saw Mag, and pulled the door wide open.

  “Boss Mag, you are here!” Mond said to Mag respectfully before yelling into the yard, “Boss, Boss Mag is here.”


  “We will talk inside.” Mag turned and waved to Firis as he stepped into the courtyard.

  “Are they our customers?” Firis looked at Mond in surprise, and quickly caught up with Mag.

  “Boss Mag, you came.” Sargeras, who was topless, came out to welcome Mag immediately when he walked in. Then, he saw Firis who followed Mag in, and swiftly went back to his room to put on some clothes. He came out after a while, rubbing his head embarrassingly as he said, “I thought you came alone.”


  “Chief Sargeras, we can execute the mission that we have discussed before now. I wonder if you guys have already prepared the items that I needed?” Mag said with a smile.

  “Boss Mag, I have prepared all the food items that you asked me to procure. They are all loaded on the wagons that are parked in the backyard. We can set off anytime after we strap on the unicorns to them.” Sargeras brought Mag to the backyard where 20-odd wagons full of food were parked.

  Mag nodded. This food should be enough to tide the Night Elves over this winter. He said to Sargeras, “Besides the food, Firis will also be going with you. I hope Chief Sargeras can take care of her along the journey.”


  “Don’t worry, I got this. As long as I am alive, I will not let Miss Firis suffer a single scratch,” Sargeras promised as he slapped his chest for emphasis.

  “This is a long journey, and there might be attacks from the elves. About the payment—”


  “Boss Mag, 1000 holy roujiamos are already a very hefty payment, and you have even prepared all the roujiamos that we need for the journey. Don’t worry, we’ll deliver both the food items and Miss Firis safely there,” Sargeras interrupted Mag’s words with a humble smile, but his tone of voice was full of conviction.
