Chapter 1281 - Alex Does Have His Own Name
Chapter 1281: Alex Does Have His Own Name
Soon, a restaurant’s 3D model appeared in Mag’s mind.
Looking from the exterior, it was similar to Mamy Restaurant as they were both two-storey buildings, but the exterior wall structure was simpler and more streamlined. However, even so, it was difficult for Mag to imagine it as a supersonic aircraft with a Mach 5 speed.
Mag used his thoughts to turn the model around, and discovered 16 thrusters at the bottom of the restaurant.
“The thrusters are using the vision of one of your country’s science fiction authors. If we magnify it, we could propel the Earth forward theoretically. Of course, I have improved upon it. It uses nuclear power instead of burning rocks.” The System’s smug voice sounded.
“It’s really extravagant to use this to propel a restaurant.” Mag was left speechless. It was a pity that he didn’t catch that movie. He had transmigrated soon after he watched the trailer[1].
“Is this supposed to be the flying mode?” Mag asked again.
“The restaurant could switch to flying mode in three seconds, take-off in five seconds, and its Mach 1 acceleration time is 10 seconds. This is the regular mode.”
“Let’s switch to the flying mode and see how it is,” Mag said in his heart.
“Flying mode switching in progress…”
The restaurant’s model began to change and become round all over. The lower end became bigger and protruding, while the upper end became narrow. It looked like a water droplet, and thrusters were placed all over.
“Damn, this aircraft is rather ugly?” Mag raised his brow slightly. He found that water-droplet shaped restaurant a little familiar.
“This is the flying accomodation’s latest model. It combines the most advanced aviation technology. It still has very generous space to operate while achieving the highest speed limit. For example, this and this…”
Then, Mag saw a shooting star dashing around in his mind.
“Okay. You can stop your boring showing-off now.” Mag rolled his eyes. His eyes were already dazzled. This System always gave him a headache.
Mag clicked on the interior of the restaurant to have a closer look. The restaurant’s interior structure was very similar to Mamy Restaurant now, but it had a button to switch its decoration style.
“The Host can change the restaurant’s style according to your mission’s requirement so the restaurant can blend into the local environment better,” the System swiftly explained.
“This is a rather practical function.” Mag nodded. Even though he had no idea what sort of missions the System was going to give him, this was equivalent to giving the restaurant an ability to be versatile. It was going to save him quite a bit on renovation.
After coming out of the restaurant’s interface, Mag began to close his eyes and rest. His body was severely exhausted after that 15-minute showdown today. Waves of tiredness washed him as soon as he lay down.

The city lord’s castle.
“We’ve already verified that two employees of Mamy Restaurant had returned. Moreover, Irina had both lunch and dinner at the restaurant,” Rolan said to Michael softly.
After a moment of pondering, Michael asked Rolan, “What do you think about this?”
“Rankster’s daughter is at Mamy Restaurant right now, and the half-dragon maiden seemed to have awakened the blood of Golden Dragons successfully a while ago. She was also given special care by Jinx, so she should already have the ability to transform.”
“You’re saying that the two giant dragons that appeared at the underground cavern are that two service staff members from Mamy Restaurant, and the appearance of those mysterious people was connected to Mamy Restaurant too?” Michael furrowed his brows.
“Actually, we should’ve noticed sooner. Mag is a very mysterious person. Although some evidence hinted that he was a young master in exile from a down-and-out family in Rodu, yesterday Gray Temple had caught a thief who said that particular young master in exile had died at the door of Mamy Restaurant some time ago. But, both Gray Temple and the city lord’s castle didn’t receive any report regarding this.” Rolan’s lips curled. “Even though he didn’t mention Mag, Mag’s trip to Rodu led others to believe that he was that young master in exile. Could this be purely a coincidence?”
“Who do you think he is?” Michael asked in a lowered voice as he stared into Rolan’s eyes.
“Four years ago, the demons, the Magus Tower, and the elves came together and set up a trap to kill Alex and maimed him. News of his death came out not long after.
“Three years later, Alex reappeared again. He killed the spatial demon, Benson, with his peak power and saved Irina. He declared his return with an additional mask on his face. Furthermore, very coincidentally, Mag happened to be at Rodu under the Roth king’s invitation.
“An ordinary restaurant owner was suddenly concerned about the continent’s affairs, and asked us to help the Night Elves because of the restaurant’s service staff.
“And after we rejected, Alex appeared at the underground cavern battlefield and slaughtered Borg. Soon after, a golden dragon and a frost dragon came with hundreds of mysterious powerhouses and repelled the Wind Forest’ army.
“Moreover, we seemed to have forgotten something. Alex does have his own name. Mag Alex is his full name,” Rolan said in a low voice as he, too, stared into Michael’s eyes.
The secret chamber fell into silence. Only the lights from the oil lamps were flickering.
“Are you sure?” Michael’s voice was a little hoarse. He suddenly felt dryness in his throat.
“If Amy is Mag and Irina’s daughter, this could explain why the elves wanted to kill Alex together with the demons and the Magus Tower. The elf queen could never be allowed to have a human’s child.
“Alex changed his face and became the chef, Mag, in Chaos City. Everything is reasonable now.”
“But, how did Alex become Boss Mag? It’s already a miracle that he could recover from the horrific injuries. Moreover, he had to achieve amazing culinary skills in three years time. Isn’t this the biggest loophole?” Michael shook his head, still not very convinced.
“Since he’s Alex, what is impossible?” Rolan asked instead.
Michael choked on his words as he couldn’t find a single word to disagree with him.
The secret chamber descended into silence again.
“Then, what do we do now? Tell the whole world, or simply confront him right away?” Michael asked. Although Mag didn’t acknowledge it himself, as what Rolan said, it was already very close to the truth.
“Neither of these two choices are beneficial to us.” Rolan shook his head and smiled. “Since Alex’s ideals are similar to ours and he chose to stand with us, why should we make everything so clear? A venomous snake that is hidden in the dark could give its enemies a deadly strike much more easily. What we should do now is to hide him even better and help him clean his tracks.”
“This is a good idea.” Michael smiled and nodded.
