Chapter 2055: Grandpa “Mag”

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

11pm. The tavern was closed for business. Mag closed the door and heaved a breath of relief.

The tavern had received over 180 customers that night, and the revenue surpassed 100,000 copper coins for the first time.

‘As Amy kept most of the money, Mag had lost the chance to save his private savings.

Amy came up from under a table while shaking the beads on her wrist, and happily said, “Father, this bracelet can glow in the dark.”

“It’s very valuable,” Mag said with a smile. Only Vanessa would give such a precious luminous pearl bracelet away casually.

Amy put down her hand, and asked, “But where’s Mother? She hasn’t come back for the whole day.”

“She has returned to Chaos City. There might be some matters she needs to handle.” Mag wasn’t very worried about Irina. With Ah Zi around, it wouldn’t be hard for her to get away even if she met unforeseen circumstances.

Chaos City was, after all, their base, and nothing serious would happen there.

“Let’s go. It’s already late. Let’s go wash up and sleep.” Mag took Amy’s little hand, and walked to the staircase.

Gentle footsteps sounded, and Annie appeared at the staircase with a picture book in her arms.

Mag stopped, and smilingly asked, “What’s up, Annie?”

‘Annie passed the picture book to Mag.

Mag took the picture book. A pretty and cute mermaid was sitting on a rock on the cover. The background was a rippling blue sea, but the most eye-catching item was that bowl of… red braised pork in the mermaid’s hands.

A soul was immediately infused, wasn’t it?

Just by looking at this cover, giving it the title of “The Indescribable Tale of the Mermaid and the Red Braised Pork” was perfectly appropriate.

Compared to just having a cute and innocent mermaid, the additional red braised pork would make people even more curious.

In two short days, Annie’s drawing technique had already improved by leaps and bounds. Be it the artistic style or the details, they were all exquisite without any faults.

Even that bowl of red braised pork was colorful and enticing. It made people hungry when they looked at it.

Amy climbed onto a stool, and exclaimed, “What a beautiful Little Mermaid. Big Sister Annie is so awesome.”

Flipping open the picture book, the story was still that familiar mermaic’s tale, but compared to the first version, this version’s storyboard, expressions, and dialogue had all improved.

Of course, most importantly, an old grandpa named “Mag” was inserted in this version. He taught the little prince how to make the red braised pork and win the heart of the little mermaid.

See, this was the quality that an outstanding comic artist should have.

Not only did Annie insert Mag into the Little Mermaid’s story perfectly, she even gave him an important role.

Meanwhile, the cooking process of the red braised pork was perfectly drawn too.

Even a person who couldn’t cook could follow the instructions in the picture book and make a passable red braised pork.

Annie placed her hands behind her back, and looked at Mag nervously and expectantly.

She was just like a student who was waiting for her teacher to declare her results.

“Perfect. Absolutely perfect!” Mag closed the picture book, and wholeheartedly praised Annie. “Annie, you are a natural comic artist. You have unmeasurable talent in this area.”

Asmile appeared on Annie’s face. She had a slight blush, but a gleam sparkled in her eyes.

“Let me read it.” Amy took the picture book over from Mag carefully and ran upstairs.

“It’s so well drawn. It will be a waste if it’s not published. However, I can see that Rodu’s picture books’ publishers’ equipment is all simple and basic. They might not be able to print out the original drawing’s effects…” Mag murmured before saying, “Why don’t I open a publishing company that only prints

your picture books?”

Annie nodded obediently, but she didn’t seem to understand what Mag was saying.

Mag patted her head smilingly, and indulgently said, “Let’s go. It’s already late. Let’s wash up and sleep.”

Annie rubbed against his hand with her eyes closed before going upstairs.

After telling a bedtime story to the two little ones, and waiting for them to fall asleep, Mag returned to his room, changed into night camouflage clothes, and left the tavern.

“Boss Mag, this way.” Noah waved to him from a dark alley.

Mag walked into the alley, and asked Merante, “How is it?”

Merante shook his head, and said, “We have searched throughout Rodu, but we couldn’t find any traces related to the devil. Josh might have already left Rodu.”

“This isn’t good news.” Mag frowned.

“He might not have left, either. What if he is simply hiding somewhere? He’s so cunning,” Noah butted in.

“He’s already the public’s enemy right now, and he can’t do much in Rodu, so there’s no incentive for him to remain here. He wouldn’t have taken the risk to stay in this city where most of the 10th-tier powerhouses are located.” Mag shook his head. “It will be even harder to look for him now.”

“Where will he go, then?” asked Noah.

After pondering briefly, Mag said, “If he wants to get stronger, he has to create more conflicts and obtain more resentment from them, or appear in places where there is a strong resentment and absorb it directly.”

Merante suddenly said, “Perhaps we should go to the extreme north of the continent. It was an ancient battlefield. Countless corpses were buried under that snow plain.”

“That ghostly place…” Noah instantly turned sullen. “You can’t even see a ghost there. He most likely won’t appear there, right?”

He felt the light leaving his life the moment he thought about leaving the warm and comfortable Rodu, and going to the freezing snow plains in the north.

Merante said to Mag, “We’ll set off tomorrow morning. We’ll let you know immediately if we discovered his tracks, Boss Mag.”

“Alright.” Mag nodded. “Let’s search through Rodu one last time tonight. Let’s go into the second prince’s residence.”

“Sure.” Merante nodded, and the three of them quickly disappeared in the dark alley.

One hour later, Mag jumped over the walls of the second prince’s residence. He looked at the wooden box in his hands with a frown.

Merante sighed, and lamented, “Seems like this is the source of the devil. Greed made him lose his soul.”

“This shows that the devil that controls Josh and the devil that escaped from the seal under Golden Dragon Island are not the same one. We have two enemies.” Mag passed the box to Merante.

Merante kept the wooden box, and gravely said, “I will try to locate him as soon as possible, before he can plan an even bigger plot.”

“Be careful.” Mag nodded.

“Let’s go, young man.” Merante turned to leave.

“Didn’t you say that we will leave in the morning?” Noah was confused.

“The devil will not give you a chance to stay overnight when it comes looking for you.” Merante chuckled.

“Goodbye, Boss Mag.” Noah waved to Mag sullenly, and quickly caught up with Merante..
