  Mag was preparing to eat the hot pot for lunch. Considering the fact that this world knew nothing about hot pot, this marvellous invention, he had decided to do a live show of eating it before introducing it formally.

  Yes. He was going to demonstrate to them personally.

  Because the venue was ready, Mag had gotten the rights to use the hot pot table, ingredients, and utensils from the System easily.

  There was a hole in the circular black granite table, which was just nice to place a big pot in. There were four types of pots to choose from: a square pot with nine equal squares within, double-flavoured, a small pot within a bigger pot, and one single pot.

  The table was huge, and could accommodate nine people sitting together at the same time.

  This had its own rule. Nine equal squares with nine seats. Everyone would take one square to cook their ingredients, and not to interfere with others’ squares. Even if someone came alone, he was able to eat hot pot if the other customers could make up a table of nine with him.

  Of course, Mag had also prepared tables for four and six which would cater to gatherings of different numbers of people.

  Hot pot was still nicer to eat with people they knew.

  Because Camilla and Connie couldn’t show their faces, he had also prepared a smaller pot for two for them to eat in the restaurant.

  Many passengers were sitting on the back of a giant white bird.

  “Prin— Young Mistress, they said Chaos City is just up front,” Lola said to Vanessa, who was wearing a veil over her face, in a low voice.

  “Really? Seems like we can still make it for dinner.” Vanessa’s eyes lit up excitedly.

  “Young Mistress, should we head home? His— Master and Madam must be very worried about you now. This is not good.”


  “It’s alright. We will go back after a few days.” Vanessa shook her head as she gazed at Lola who looked tortured. She reached out to hold her hand and smiled. “Don’t worry. I won’t let them punish you after we go back. I made you do all this, and they know about my character.”


  “But—”


  Vanessa placed her finger on Lola’s lips with a gentle laugh, and said, “Hush. We will be reaching Chaos City soon. Let’s forget about all the unhappy stuff. The most important thing for us now is to enjoy the good food.”


  Lola moved her mouth, but she eventually didn’t speak. She only sighed in her heart.

  Of course, she knew about the princess’s character. Even though she was usually very obedient, once she had decided on something, she would definitely go and do it.

  The flying steed stopped outside of Chaos City. Everyone got down from the bird’s back, and walked toward the gates.

  Vanessa raised her head to look at the tall city walls, and praised, “So, Chaos City actually looks so majestic. It’s almost on par with Rodu.” Then, she happily said, “I really should come out to see the world more. The world outside is much bigger than I expected.”


  Lola looked at her surroundings warily. Even though she was just a servant girl who didn’t know magic and martial arts, she was the princess’s only guard now since there were no guards with them.

  “Excuse me, how do I get to Mamy Restaurant?” Vanessa asked a guard at the city gates when she was making way in.

  The guard took a look at Vanessa and Lola, two little maidens without their own steed. It seemed like they were attracted by the Mamy Restaurant’s fame. He had met many people who asked him for directions lately, so he smilingly answered, “After you get into the city, hail a carriage that has the sign “in operation” on it. They will bring you there. It’s a little too far to walk from the north of the city to the south.”


  “Thank you.” Vanessa said her thanks politely, and went into the city with Lola.

  After they got into the city, and they were alone, Lola softly said, “Princess, we shouldn’t take a stranger’s carriage. If the driver meant us harm, we……”


  “Lola, this is Chaos City, the City of Peace, the safest city on the Norland Continent,” Vanessa said with a smile as she flagged down a carriage with a sign “in operation” on it.

  “But isn’t Chaos City named thus because it is chaotic?” Lola was perplexed.

  “You should go back and read more books.” Vanessa flicked Lola’s forehead with a smile before saying the coachman, “Sir, could you bring us to the Mamy Restaurant, please? ”


  “Of course. I have to make a few trips there every day,” the coachman said with a humble smile.

  “Let’s go,” Vanessa told Lola and went onto the carriage.

  “Okay.” Lola rubbed her head and followed her onto the horse-drawn carriage. The princess read a lot of books, so she naturally knew much more than her.

  “Sir, is the Mamy Restaurant very famous in Chaos City?” Vanessa started a conversation with the coachman when the carriage began moving.

  “That’s right. The Mamy Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Chaos City now. It has only opened six months ago, and long lines are always forming during meal times. You might not get to eat there if you are late.”


  “Will we be in time if we go now?” Vanessa was a little nervous.

  “You will be just in time to start lining up now. You will be able to stand at the front. However, the Mamy Restaurant only starts its operation at 5 pm, so you will have to wait for at least an hour if you go now.”


  “What kind of restaurant is that? It even expects its customers to line up……” Lola grumbled. Did the princess have to humble herself to line up with others and wait for her meal?

  Laughing, the coachman said, “Young lady, you have no idea how many people love the food at the Mamy Restaurant. However, that restaurant has a lot of weird rules, and you have to abide by them, or else you will be blacklisted by Boss Mag, and never get to enter the restaurant again. Lining up is only one of the many rules.”


  “As long as I can get to eat the delicacies, lining up for a while is nothing. A talented person usually has his quirks,” Vanessa said with a smile. She was even more expectant than before.

  The horse-drawn carriage was coasting along the wide streets of Chaos City as Vanessa drew open the curtains to look outside. Neat houses were lined up along both sides of the streets. Although there weren’t many people walking on the streets due to the cold, she could still feel the atmosphere was more relaxed compared to Rodu.

  Furthermore, they could also see demons and trolls walking on the streets every now and then, and that shocked Lola.

  Meanwhile, Vanessa was very calm. This was what was special about Chaos City. All the species could get along harmoniously. This was a scene that couldn’t be witnessed anywhere else.

  “Aden Square is right in front. It’s the biggest square in Chaos City, and also where all the business gathered. You can find everything you need and want here,” the coachman reminded them.

  The spacious square and bustling business streets appeared in front of the two of them. There were many people walking around, and it was much busier than any business street in Rodu.

  The horse-drawn carriage went across the square, and stopped in the western side of the square.

  The coachman who stopped the horse-drawn carriage smilingly said, “Ladies, we have arrived at Mamy Restaurant.”


  “Thanks.” Vanessa told Lola to pay for the fare.

  They were still in the carriage when a strong whiff of the spices came into the carriage through the curtains.
