  “Anna.” Shirley was taken aback as she looked at the chubby rabbit. The workmanship wasn’t very good. The loose threads were visible, and the eyes and nose were drawn, which made it look ugly cute. It reminded her of that cute little person.

  She didn’t know how to knit at all. She wondered how much time she spent knitting this ugly little rabbit. However, it looked much better than the little bunny hat she gave her.

  “Thank you,” Shirley said to Firis with gratitude and took the rabbit before leading the elves away. She turned around and a smile appeared on her lips. It felt so good to have someone who would miss her……

  Late in the night.

  Mag stood on the balcony and stared to the northeast with worry on his face.

  His power had just recovered to the 8th-tier. He wouldn’t be a great boost to Irina when facing the entire elven tribe. Instead, he would have brought even more enemies to the Night Elves.

  What he could do to help the Night Elves was support them with the resources they needed to tide over the most difficult initial period.

  As the members of the restaurant increased steadily, and with the promise of the merfolk, he would be able to give Irina powerful assistance at a critical time.

  But he could only use the chance once, so he got to find the most optimal opportunity.

  “What is the most important now is to regain my power. Only my own strength is dependable,” Mag mumbled to himself as he took out his sword to practice.

  Two hours later, a very sweaty Mag went downstairs for a bath. He lay on his bed after changing into a set of clean pyjamas. He clicked open the golden Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers experience bag in his brain.

  An enormous amount of information flooded him. It took Mag some time to digest and rearrange it into something he could use. Then, he pushed open the door to the test field for the God of Cookery.

  “Let’s fight, Fat Head Fish!” an elated voice said the very moment Mag stepped into the test field for the God of Cookery. A golden Chinese cleaver suddenly appeared in Mag’s hands.

  “Erm?” Mag was stunned. A giant fat head fish suddenly flew toward him with a wide open mouth from a corner.

  “What the heck is this?” Mag lifted his hand and gave it a slash. That fat head fish was cut into halves and landed on the floor.

  That fat head fish’s head was two times bigger than the head of a normal fish, and its body was also rounder. The ratio of its body to his head was 1:1. Basically, the fish only had two body parts.

  A fish that only had a fat head.

  And right at this moment, a figure 1/10000 appeared at the upper left corner in the Mag’s mind.

  Before Mag had a chance to ponder, two fat head fish flew toward him from his left and right.

  “Hey? System, what are you doing?” Mag asked with furrowed eyebrows as he slashed the two fat head fishes with his cleaver.

  “This is a small opening game based on the Host’s past comments on the Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers—Let’s Fight, Fat Head Fish! The Host has to fight increasing numbers of fat head fish. Once you are bitten by the fish, the count will start again.

  “Moreover, you have to slash the fat head fish open in the middle of the head before it can be considered an effective kill. The first level, 10,000 fish. Go for it, Host!” The System’s laughing voice sounded.

  “凸(艹皿艹)!~”


  Mag looked at the fat head fishes which had multiplied into four, and slashed them into halves.

  Now that he thought back, he had complained offhandedly when eating Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers in Changsha because the chef’s cutting skills were rather bad. The two halves of the head were cut unevenly. He said, “Let that chef go and hack 10,000 fat head fishes before he sells them again……”


  He’d never thought……

  it would come true.

  He indeed had to pay for his sins eventually.

  Mag was hacking those fat head fishes like a whirlwind. He spinned around among the fishes as he hacked and slashed. A fish died with every strike.

  “This isn’t too difficult.” Mag used his 8th-tier knight’s body and reflexes to avoid those rotund fat head fishes easily. It was almost like going through a thick forest without a single leaf touching his body……

  “Aiyoh!”


  Mag suddenly felt a pain in his butt. He turned and saw a fat head fish latched onto his butt firmly. It was even rolling its eyes at him.

  “Challenge failed!

  “Back to zero!”


  A cold voice sounded.

  “No!”


  Mag stared as the numbers that were in the 9,000s returned to zero in an instant. He couldn’t help but moan. Then, he used his knife to smack that hateful fat head fish away.

  A fat head fish flew out from the corner……

  “Challenge failed!

  “Challenge failed!!

  “Challenge failed……”


  Although he was failing constantly, the numbers were increasing steadily, and Mag had evolved from his initial avoidance to a cold-blooded fat head fish killer.

  300 fat head fishes appeared at the same time. Slash, slash. With two strokes of the cleaver, 300 fat head fishes were cut in two at the same time, and landed on the ground. Every one of them was perfectly cut into equal halves.

  “Congratulations, Host. You have passed successfully! This time……”


  The system’s voice sounded.

  Mag flicked his hand, and the golden cleaver flew out and nailed a fat head fish at the corner into the ground. The system’s voice became noisy instantly. It only recovered after a while. “Now, you can begin to practice how to make the Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers……”


  “It’s just Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers. How difficult can it be?” An expert smile appeared on Mag’s face as he picked a red chilli pepper and gave it a small sniff.

  His face turned red instantaneously, and he sneezed hard for a few times.

  “Damn, this chilli is a little too hot.” Mag raised his brows. This spiciness came too sudden.

  Diced hot red peppers was the crux of the Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers dish.

  Making a successful chilli marinade was the focus of making a scrumptious Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers.

  Hence, Mag’s journey of making the Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers started with marinating the chilli.

  The red hot chilli peppers—together with ginger, spring onions, and garlic—were placed on top of the white fish head, and then put into the steamer. When the time was up, the fish head would be taken out and soy sauce drizzled over it. Then, hot oil was poured over it, and a helping of Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers that tasted, smelled, and looked good was done.

  It looked rather simple at first.

  However, when each and every single step was elevated to perfection, things were no longer simple.

  Fail…… Fail…… Fail……

  Early in the next morning, Mag opened his eyes, and the way the fat head fish rolled its eyes at him still lingered in his mind.

  “Phew.” Mag heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at the alarm clock next to his bed. It was six o’clock.

  Today was his rest day, and the restaurant wasn’t open for business, but he still had to get up early to make breakfast for the cleaners because they didn’t have any days off.

  Mag got out of the bed quietly. After washing up, he went to the kitchen downstairs. He went to take a look at the fish tank and a fat head fish was swimming past and rolling its eyes at him.

  “凸(艹皿艹)!”


  “I am going to get you!”


  Mag grabbed that fat head fish, grasped the Chinese cleaver from the knife rack, and hacked that fish right on its head.

  “Ding!”


  The cleaver snapped into two.

  The fat head fish that only had a little broken skin rolled its eyes smugly.
