CHAPTER 1414: CHAPTER 1415 DINING

After a while, the manager came out with the waiter, and looking at the young Long Boduo, he hesitated for a moment before saying to Feng Yuan.

"If you are Divine Pact Makers, can we use this opportunity for a bit of promotion? Rest assured, it’s not any malicious promotion, just saying a Divine Beast visited. Of course, if you can leave a group photo, that would be even better."

"We are not Divine Pact Makers, but there indeed is a Divine Beast. It’s not only Divine Pact Makers who have Divine Beasts with them, and as for promotion, I think it would be better for you to talk to him."

Feng Yuan said with a slight smile, causing the waiter’s and manager’s faces to change. Was he playing with them? But it didn’t quite seem that way. Looking at the young Long Boduo, the manager puzzledly said,

"Not Divine Pact Makers? Sigh, forget it, there’s just an empty table, you guys can go in. Just, don’t tell such lies next time."

"I didn’t lie, it’s just a group photo!"

Long Boduo said as he transformed back to his original form, looking at the manager. Everyone present was stunned by this scene. The ghostly horse form of Long Boduo was clearly a Spirit Beast. Could Ghost Series Spirit Beasts transform into human form? Thinking carefully, there did seem to be many instances of Ghost Series Spirit Beasts using Phantoms to disguise as humans, but...

Seeing them still doubting his Divine Beast identity, Long Boduo stomped and said,

"How about now!"

The Gate of Netherworld and the path to the Netherworld appeared out of thin air, Agunas wagged his tail speechlessly and said,

"Be careful not to alarm the guards."

"You, are you really a Divine Beast?"

Witnessing this scene, both the manager and waiter were terrified. Maybe it was an Ultimate Move, but the aura couldn’t be faked, or rather, a Spirit Beast with such power wouldn’t bother lying to pretend to be a Divine Beast. So, Long Boduo really was a Divine Beast?!

"Of course~ I am the Guide of the Netherworld, Long Boduo~"

Proudly speaking, Long Boduo snorted and shook his head, saying,

"So, are we taking a picture? If the food here tastes good, I can help recommend it, huh, they reacted so quickly?"

Long Boduo then noticed people approaching quickly; without checking, he could guess they were guards. He was just puzzled why they arrived so fast. Feng Yuan glanced at the tourists gathered around and said,

"It’s quite normal. You’re not even looking at where we are. If you want to take a group photo, you’d better hurry; otherwise, the onlookers might end up blocking the place later."

"Alright, hold on."

Recovering from the shock, the manager immediately ran into the store. He couldn’t help it. In just a moment, a young boy turned into a Divine Beast, which was too intimidating. He was just an ordinary person, completely lacking experience with such matters, and naturally, the tourists were the same. Witnessing this scene, they were all startled.

After a while, the manager came out holding a camera, and the guards pushed through the crowd and came in. Seeing Long Boduo, they were very apprehensive. After all, that was a Divine Beast. But why did it suddenly appear here?

Agunas glanced at Long Boduo and glided over to explain to the guards. Upon knowing Long Boduo did all this just to eat a meal without needing a reservation, they didn’t know what to say. To blame him? As long as no damage was done, they wouldn’t dare, nor have any reason to do so. In this world, Divine Beasts shelter nations, and as long as they’re not enemies, they’re allies.

Also, everyone knew that Divine Beasts don’t understand human rules and order, so no one would blame them for this. Seeing Long Boduo in his original form, the guards immediately kept the crowd at bay. They had no choice; too close, who knows what might happen?

Seeing the guards saying nothing, the manager breathed a sigh of relief and handed the camera to Feng Yuan. He had Long Boduo stand at the store entrance, and then other staff came running out. After all, such a big event of a Divine Beast visiting would naturally stir everyone’s curiosity, even the diners inside ran to the window to look at Long Boduo outside.

After taking the group photo, the manager, upon confirming Long Boduo’s permission to use the photo for promotion, had the waiter quickly invite Long Boduo and the others inside, even announcing that their meals were entirely free today.

Sitting in his youthful form, Long Boduo ignored the occasional gazes from people and proudly said to Agunas,

"Look, we came in~ and got a free meal too~"

Xiao Ji sulked in Feng Yuan’s embrace, unable to help it. Xiao Ji was also a Divine Beast, and even a guide. Yet during the meal, such a big blunder occurred, naturally displeasing him. As for blaming the Big Cat? Xiao Ji didn’t think that way, since the route was decided by both him and Big Cat. Xiao Ji wasn’t in the habit of shifting blame.

Why didn’t he reveal his Divine Beast identity? Agunas disagreed, and Feng Yuan wouldn’t allow it either, and besides, he couldn’t speak, so how would he prove being a Divine Beast? His current power wasn’t high, and others might not believe him. As for Feng Yuan and the others not saying, it was entirely for his safety.

"A Divine Beast without Divine Beast Level power? Even Estir got into trouble, let alone Xiao Ji, so Kong Qing wholeheartedly endorsed concealing Xiao Ji’s identity."

Patting Xiao Ji’s head, Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"Okay, we’re in now, right? Although with help from Long Boduo, you found this place, so aren’t you going to order?"

Upon hearing Feng Yuan, Xiao Ji turned his head puzzledly looking at Long Boduo, who shook his head and said,

"I only ordered everything I wanted to eat myself. Your food, I didn’t touch."

He knew Feng Yuan’s intentions quite well, and he didn’t exactly know what Feng Yuan and Xiao Ji liked to eat either. Spreading his wings, Xiao Ji chirped while communicating with Agunas, who flicked his tail and said,

"Just order yourself, your movements are clear enough to show. Anything unclear, I’ll help translate."

Hesitating slightly, Xiao Ji nodded and started ordering. Using gestures, Feng Yuan marked all the food Xiao Ji selected, and items needing multiple portions, Agunas helped remind them.

The waiter, who had been waiting at the side, looked at Feng Yuan’s group with some astonishment and said,

"Um, with so much food, can you eat it all?"

"Shouldn’t be a problem, most of it is Spirit Beast food anyway. As long as there aren’t any strangely large portions here, I trust finishing it won’t be an issue."

Feng Yuan smiled and said, not thinking the other was asking because of the meal being free. After all, there were noticeable signs at each table reminding to beware of portion sizes on the menu to avoid ordering more than one’s capacity and thus prevent waste.

Indeed an interesting restaurant, Feng Yuan thought to himself, while Long Boduo observed the stone-style restaurant and said,

"Is this place following a unique exterior style?"

"Not really. It seems this place was started by people from the Meteorite Museum, mainly to try new items; dishes proven here get adopted by the museum’s restaurant, though the main purpose remains unclear."

Wagging his tail, Agunas said. He indeed couldn’t figure out what the Meteorite Museum aimed for with this. Feng Yuan looked around the restaurant decor and said,

"Meteorite Museum’s restaurant? It doesn’t look like it, huh. The decoration here looks like a cave regardless."

"I heard this place was supposed to be styled like the museum, surrounded by meteorites, but they thought they understood meteorites better than designers, ending up with this appearance."

Listening to Big Cat, Agunas translated, and a nearby staff chuckled lightly and said,

"Not so, actually. Initially, this was intended to imitate the museum using a meteorite-surrounding style, but they believed they knew meteorites better than designers, resulting in this look."

"They originally intended to redecorate, but the director rejected it, warning them against constantly thinking to use meteorite research for things they’re not skilled at."

"So that’s the case. If you say imitating meteorites, it somewhat counts, just that the materials aren’t right."

Listening to the waiter, Feng Yuan said amusedly. He felt it looked like a cave mainly because of the uneven stone walls. However, after closely observing, Feng Yuan realized they were indeed trying to replicate the meteorite look as best they could, but ultimately, they weren’t successful in capturing the unique texture of meteorite surfaces.
