Chapter 825: The Chef?
"What am I doing right now?" were the words that had come out of Skyler's mouth as he was carefully stretching out a large piece of dough.
He was doing so carefully while also using his Qi, trying to infuse it into his techniques.
"Add slightly more Qi when you compound the dough up, and refine your control when you stretch it out," Zon ordered.
"Yes, Chef!" Skyler shouted as he continued with his work.
Skyler was imagining how he had gotten into this situation. Instead of wearing the respectable Clan clothes of the Wu Club Clan, he was wearing a chef's outfit.
Instead of his Qi being used to train and ascend into a mighty warrior that the heavens would be proud of, he was here making noodles of all things.
Tears wanted to flow from Skyler's eyes, but knowing fully who was watching him, Skyler continued to work.
"I can't believe it," Rane said, standing next to Zon. "You're not just a good cook and a good fighter, but it looks like you have an eye for selecting talent as well.
"The noodles that Skyler makes are close to yours."
"Right, but we still don't have the capacity to fully deal with all of the orders we make," Zon replied. "Ideally, I'd like the original staff to focus on prep work, and the final details to be done by those like Skyler."
When Zon saw Skyler's body, he knew he had a body and Qi perfect for crafting noodles. In fact, that was what was missing.
The power he had with his nano machine body could be replaced by Pagna warriors. But what warriors would curb their ambition to be the strongest and join a noodle shop?
This was why it didn't seem like a viable option for Zon, that was until he met Skyler during the attack, and came up with the perfect solution. Now, here the two of them were.
"Oh, you mean the Dark Faction leader. Things have been... mostly the same."
"Yeah!" another one shouted. "We can't really form an opinion of him because we don't even see him. Things are the same."
"I'm just happy there's a strong leader at the top. It seems to have stopped the Light Faction and the Demonic Faction from doing anything."
Kelp was unhappy with the answers he got, but he continued to persist, asking in roundabout ways about anything to do with the Dark Magus.
In the end, though, it seemed like the people knew nothing. If anything, what they had learned was that to them, the new leader of the Dark Faction just appeared out of thin air.
Since their lives hadn't been affected much, they didn't bother to look into matters.
In the restaurant, there were also a few Pagna warriors present. Most likely teachers from the academy or related to the students inside.
So Kelp went on to question them as well. During the questioning, just like before, there wasn't much to add.
However, there were other things they found out, like how all of the clans were attacked just before the Dark Magus became the leader of the Faction.
"Really!" Kelp said with his eyes lit up. "Yeah, but it wasn't by the Dark Faction leader himself. It seemed to be others around him, you know, like those from the Crimson Crane."
"Are they strong enough to take out entire clans in the Dark Faction?" Kelp replied.
"Who knows," the man shrugged. "I wasn't there, but there's someone you can ask. I believe one of the clans that had been attacked was the Wu Club Clan."
"Right, and we have a member of that clan here!" another customer said.
"Where?" Kelp asked, ecstatic to follow up with more questions, and then they saw the customers pointing at a chef behind the counter of all places.
