“Wow, piggie eyes look quite good. Big Sister Anna, would you like to have one?” Amy asked Anna, who was standing behind her with Ugly Duckling in her arms. They had already run to the kitchen window, and Amy was looking in on tip-toes with anticipation.
“No.” Anna shook her head with resolution. She shrank her head back for fear of looking into the kitchen window.
“What about Big Sister Angela? Would you like one?” Amy turned her head over to ask Angela, who was behind the counter.
“No thanks.” Angela shook her head. The name itself was already horrifying to her, much less tasting it on her own.
“Alright, it seems like I can only enjoy the tastiness on my own,” Amy lamented,
“Is Amy going to eat the roasted pig’s eyes too?” Vanessa could not help but turn around to ask Amy in shock when she heard the conversation.
“Yes. Of the three skewers Father is grilling, two of them are mine.” Amy nodded. After that, she said, “Did you order that remaining skewer?”
“Yes. But I’m not the one eating it. My brother will be eating it.” Vanessa nodded with a smile. She looked at Amy with admiration. The little boss is a brave little chowhound indeed. She even dares to try such a terrifying food.
“What a pity. The roasted pig’s eyes Father makes must be very delicious, but you’re letting someone else have it,” Amy said pitifully.
This little girl really isn’t afraid at all? Sean looked at Amy in shock. He did have some impression of this little fellow. She was Krassu and Urien’s treasured disciple, but the two great magic casters were not at the restaurant today.
Krassu should be liaising with Brent and Elliot at the moment. The triennial Magic Caster Tournament would begin soon, and as an important person who laid the foundations for this event, as well as the fixed guest for the opening ceremonies in the previous years, Krassu would definitely be invited by the Magus Tower to take part.
Perhaps he might even see this little fellow again at Rodu.
However, she was really too young to join the Magic Caster Tournament officially. After all, the youngest to join had to be at least 10 years old.
“Is the little boss going to try the roasted pig’s eyes?” Many customers could not help but look over when they heard what Amy said.
As Mamy Restaurant’s top spokesperson and also top salesperson, Amy’s every test-eating would always cause newly launched food to sell well. Her influence was because of how good she could always make the food look when she was eating. Slowly, everyone started spreading the slogan: “Follow the little boss, and you’ll not go wrong.”
Therefore, if Amy was going to try the roasted pig’s eyes, everyone would be able to witness this scary-sounding new product.
“If the little boss is going to try it personally, chances are it would most probably be a delicacy. But whether to try it or not… is still a tough choice to make.” Harrison stroked his chin undecidedly. His gaze landed near the counter, and his eyes widened when he saw Angela, who was standing behind the counter.
(キ`゚Д゚ ́)!!
F*ck! Boss Mag is so heartless!
Th-this happened just like that?!
She turned down the high salary of a secretary who doesn’t have to do anything, and came willingly to become the cashier here. What kind of world is this?
Harrison sniffed. He felt as though life was no longer beautiful, and even the kebab in his hand was not fragrant anymore.
“Miss Miya. Please get me another glass of vodka,” Harrison said as he raised his hand. He paused for a while, and then said, “And 10 skewers of roasted pig’s eyes.”
“Wah…”
Everyone around him turned to look. There’s the real hero.
“Could this roasted pig’s eyes have a limited supply every day too?” Gjerj, who was sitting in front of Harrison, was also stunned. Although professionals like them had always trusted Boss Mag a lot, they would always wait for reviews before trying for new products that were contentious. He didn’t think that Harrison would take action so quickly this time, and suddenly he even doubted himself.
Yabemiya looked at Harrison in shock. She didn’t know what had agitated the optimistic fluffy man that made him want 10 skewers of roasted pig’s eyes in one go. However, she still nodded very professionally, and said, “Alright. Please hang on for a moment.”
“Why harm each other in such haste?” Gjerj said sorrowfully to him.
“Scram.” Harrison rolled his eyes.
“Why, do you have insider news?”
“No. I just felt like eating something with a heavier taste to calm myself down.” Harrison shook his head melancholily.
Gjerj was bewildered. He replied, “Alright. I’ll watch the little boss’s reaction before deciding if I want to try this new product.”
Mag could grill the pig’s eyes while cooking at the same time, so there were dishes being served constantly. The pig’s eyes on the grill were slathered with layers of sauce, making them brown, and at the same time covering the horrifying appearance of the food to make them look like meatballs.
Sean chatted with Vanessa and Abraham. Because he hid his identity, their topics were all rather casual. As Sean talked, he could not help but glance at the roasted pig’s eyes from time to time.
The pig’s eyes on the grill were sizzling, and were coated with a glossy layer of oil, making them look very enticing. He had to admit that if he hadn’t witnessed the whole process of the bloody pig’s eyes turn into this current state, he probably wouldn’t have felt so repulsed.
“Alright. Serve this pig’s eyes to the customer.” Mag sprinkled some cumin and Sichuan pepper flakes on the roasted pig’s eyes and plated them. After that, he told Yabemiya, “These two are for Amy. Remember to remind them to leave it to cool for a while. It’s very hot.”
“Alright. Harrison wants 10 skewers of roasted pig’s eyes,” Yabemiya told him as she received the plate.
“Alright.” Mag nodded. He quickly skewered up 10 skewers of pig’s eyes, and placed them on the grill before continuing to cook.
“Your roasted pig’s eyes.” Miya placed the plate of roasted pig’s eyes in front of Sean. After that, she placed the other plate in front of Amy, who had already seated herself obediently on the high stool by the counter.
“Thank you, Big Sister Miya,” Amy thanked before reaching for the roasted pig’s eyes.
“Boss told you to eat it in a while. It’s hot,” Miya reminded her.
“Oh.” Amy retracted her hand that was already reached out, and obediently said, “Then I’ll wait for a while before eating.”
The counter was slightly taller than the normal tables, and it was at a place where it could be seen at every angle of the hall.
Everyone looked at the two skewers of roasted pig’s eyes on the plate in front of Amy. The brown pig’s eyes no longer appeared that scary, and even looked a little like meatballs.
However, the thought that these round balls were actually pig’s eyes still made it hard for most of them to accept.
Sean, who saw how the pig’s eyes turned into this skewer of roasted pig’s eyes, was just like that.
“Eat it quickly, Brother, it’s Uncle’s treat today,” Vanessa urged Sean expectantly.
“???” Abraham.
