The Strongest Beast Tamer 182 Marie Attracts Trouble

They were especially thinking about going with the plot of land right next to the two pubs. Mainly due to the fact that they would be able to get themselves some drunken customers. Which, although might be bothersome, can bring in a large amount of money.

As for now, the group was currently waiting for the others to join them. Flynn and Chloe were still in the process of signing doc.u.ments and contracts to hire the two businesses for constructions. While Marie was either talking to the leader of the Explorer's Guild here or trying to find them.

The group was currently in one of the places they might've had to compete against. It was a j.a.panese style restaurant. When they walked into the restaurant, they all gasped from the extraordinary sight.

There were professional chefs everywhere, cooking in front of semi-circular tables where customers filled the sides. Large and intense flames sprouted upwards every now and then, causing some people to gasp from excitement and others to laugh.

Although it took a while to get through the line, they were swiftly escorted to a table with just enough s.p.a.ces for their group. Mariel and her subordinates had already left them after escorting them around the food district. She had given them her number so that should anything ever occur they'll be able to call up and ask her for a.s.sistance.

There were, however, a few other people on their table. But they were in a world of their own, not paying any attention to the group as they enjoyed their meals. The group did send a message to all the others where they were so that once they've finished their deals, they can walk on over to get themselves a meal.

Everyone took a look at the menu, each ordering some food that some of them have never heard of before. It wasn't as though they've never been to a j.a.panese style restaurant before, it's just that the only ones around them that they've been to were sushi places. As it was easily the cheapest option to go with back before the world evolve.

However, now that everything has evolved, even the smallest of fish that was once used to eat in sushi could now swallow an entire human in one go. Lachlan decided to try and experiment with his taste buds. He already knew that the food, vegetables, and fruit were far tastier than they were before the world evolved so he wasn't all that afraid of whatever the food was.

Lachlan ordered Takoyaki, Joe and Zoe both ordered a serving of Prawn Gyoza, Georgia got herself Chicken Karaage along with an Eggplant Salad. Finally, Simon ordered a Sushi and Sashimi for both himself and Maddie who had decided to come down once they finished everything.

Valentina and her family were down in the city as well, looking at the spots that the group recommended to them. The family had been in the business for a while, their eyes were observant so they should be able to make much better decisions than them in terms of choosing the location of their restaurant.

Back on the table, another chef appeared. His attire was slightly different, as unlike the one on the table before that was in all while, the new chef was in a completely black set up. He messed around with the bench, causing some cut out within the shelf to be pulled out, revealing a deep fryer.

Once that was done, he bent over and opened up the cupboard, revealing his whole array of ingredients. The cupboard was heavily refrigerator so that nothing goes off when throughout the day. Also, it would allow the ingredients to stay fresh the slightest bit longer while being right next to the cooking station.

In a calm and composed manner, the chef pulled out a few ingredients, sheets of gyoza wrapper made from the normal ingredients which would just make it multiple times better. Followed by a mixture of sorts, filled with parts of prawn alongside some vegetables.

On the other side, the chef that was originally serving the table was now preparing for a much large dish. It was easy to tell due to the large plates in front of him. It seemed to have a black and marble-like exterior. He pulled out a variety of fishes, bringing forth an array of colours. Orange, pink, red, and white were the main ones while there were a few green vegetables right next to them.

The chef pulled out one of the large pieces of salmon onto his chopping board. He pulled out a knife from a drawer that glistened from the sharp edge. His facial expression remained unchanged throughout the entire action before he started slicing the fish into semi-thick pieces of sashimi.

The fish meat was a vibrant orange with thick glistening pieces of marbling. Although it wasn't really salmon rather they were evolved fish from salmon. Just one of the fishes could be used to in hundreds, if not thousands of salmon fishes stead.

It was one of the few fishes which happened to remain somewhat docile after the evolution. So, the government immediately put into action a plan to harvest and farm salmon through the use of salt.w.a.ter somewhat deep within the mainland. These new and evolved breeds of salmon are then evenly distributed throughout America, the distribution is entirely reliant on the population of the city.

It was similar to a few other farms which managed to breed beasts. For example, there were a few farms near the centre of America that bred chickens as well as cows. Granted, the size of these farms were absolutely ma.s.sive due to the beasts' sizes.

Anyway, it didn't take long before the meals were ready. The chefs worked in a professional and composed manner where just about everything was obsolete to them, no getting distracted by any of the noises. In some peoples' eyes, it was the working of an artist.

And the final masterpiece was the plates of food in front of them. The Sushi and Sashimi platter was covered in a variety of colours with small bits of vegetables in between the fish. The chef served it up gracefully in front of Simon and Maddy who both dug in through the use of chopsticks.

However, after living for so long without the use of chopsticks, the two of them have lost all skill involving it. Fortunately, it only took a few mistakes where they dropped the food back onto the plate before they managed to familiarise themselves with the technique.

Unfortunately, that wasn't the same for the others on the table. None of them knew how to eat with chopsticks, they never needed to know as it wasn't a necessity. They were all utterly defeated by the challenge of using a chopstick, their overwhelming strength even snapped a few accidentally.

"Can I have a fork please?" Lachlan asked politely with the shame of defeat weighing down his mood. Even stealing an entire Dragon King's castle wasn't as difficult as using chopsticks for him. His own strength was just too much for the chopsticks to handle. Lachlan turned to face Simon and sighed. "Seems you've managed to win this one."

Simon chuckled loudly as he raised his hands in the air for a sign of victory. "Yes, I've finally beaten you in something. Ha, how does it feel to be bested by chopsticks? I reckon it sucks doesn't it?" Simon had never really beaten Lachlan properly in anything, but his satisfaction reached a max just from that one comment from Lachlan alone.

"Don't let that ego get too big for you boots, I could still completely crush you in a fight, don't worry about that," Lachlan said in annoyance as his lips twitched slightly from Simon's questions. The chef placed a fork in front of Lachlan, and Lachlan picked it up with his eyebrow twitching. He hated having to admit defeat to an eating utensil.

"Hey chef, would you be able to teach me how to use a chopstick?" Lachlan asked politely as he put the fork back down. He would never ask Simon, that was the absolute bottom line he would never cross. If he were to ever ask Simon for help it was obvious that he was in a tough situation.

The chef smiled brightly, so bright it almost radiated light. He came around the table before standing next to Lachlan. In his hands were a pair of his own chopsticks. In a gentle and warm voice, the chef started to explain the process of how to use a chopstick properly. Finally, after a few minutes, Lachlan finally managed to get the hang of it.

However, it wasn't only Lachlan. Georgia, Zoe, and Joe were all listening in as well. Practising on the side, looking like complete clowns as they were perfecting their form. Eventually, they too managed to get the hang of it and eat their meals in a traditional manner.

It was another reason as to why the four didn't want to use a fork. When one takes a look around the restaurant, they would notice that everyone is using chopsticks; they didn't want to stick out amongst the crowd. Not to mention it wasn't all that bad to know how to use chopsticks. Mainly for when they start making their moves in Asia.

As they ate their meal, Flynn and Chloe managed to return. They were chatting casually with bright cheerful smiles. Once they reached the table Chloe gave them the good news. "Alright, the deal has been completed, and we've managed to get ourselves some workers and sponsors."

"Sponsors?" Lachlan questioned with a raised eyebrow.

"Yup, the two companies are planning on sponsoring the academy through the use of free construction. As for our end of the deal, we just have to use their stuff. That's all," Flynn stepped forward to explain. "Their stuff has some small branding; the furniture and construction materials are all of good quality."

"That's great, so, when are they going to start?" Simon asked as he stuffed his mouth with sashimi.

"Well, they'll be starting in a few days. So, I will say that we're probably going to be here for a lot longer than usual," Flynn explained with nan odd expression. "However, this will also allow us to stabilise our position in the food district. As of now, we'll be able to harvest wild beasts ourselves for our businesses gaining a reputation."

"Alright, sounds good," Lachlan nodded.

With their heightened senses they started to hear someone running towards them, their breathing was quickened as they struggled to continue running. They heard shouts from behind the runner, shouts full of hatred.

Marie burst through the doors before dashing towards the table they were on. "Help! I don't know what I did wrong, but it seems I've managed to p.i.s.s them off greatly." Marie sat on the ground and leaned against the table, taking deep breaths as she attempted to calm herself down.

A few more people burst through the door, metal bats in their hands as they portray an intimidating look to everyone. The leader of the group, full of tattoos and a bald head stepped forward before turning to Marie. "Where the h.e.l.l do you think you're going? There isn't anywhere in these streets where you'll be safe."
