Chapter 1247: Building A Harmonious Society Starts With Me

The other frost dragons, who had banged on the table and stood up to boost Fox’s presence, gulped together as they looked at the customers who stood up one by one. They slowly turned around, and sat down again before picking up the chopsticks to dip the duck intestine.
“You want to tear down Mamy Restaurant?” an elder wearing the Gray Temple’s uniform asked Fox as he stared at him coldly.
A 10th-tier powerhouse! Fox felt his strong aura immediately, and judging from his Gray Temple uniform, he could guess that he was one of the four deputy lords of the Gray Temple.
“How would you go about tearing it down?” A 9th-tier demon looked at Fox with evil intentions. His presence at the peak 9th-tier was as powerful as Fox’s. He cracked his neck and made a cackling sound.
“Why don’t you start with me, this old man, first?” Novan, who was sitting across from Kra.s.su, asked with a smile.
There were powerful customers and normal customers, and they were all standing up at this moment and asking Fox with an unfriendly expression.
This fellow was trying to tear down their holy land and insult their faith!
This doesn’t feel very right… Fox panicked instantly as he sensed gazes from all the big bosses. He didn’t expect Mag would parry him like this so shamelessly.
What should he do? Even Frost Dragon Island was no match for these people; there was no way he would dare to tear down the restaurant, as he most probably would perish on the spot.
“I… I… I am just joking. Building a harmonious society starts with me. How could I ever tear down such a beautiful restaurant?” Fox said with a forced smile and an ugly facial expression. “I like this restaurant. I love hot pot.”
There was a smile on Elizabeth’s face, and she relaxed completely. She turned and looked toward the kitchen. She didn’t expect Mag to use such an interesting maneuver to embarra.s.s Fox. It was even better than beating him up.
These customers are so awesome. Yabemiya gazed at the customers who were standing up around her with stars in her eyes. She had never expected so many strangers would stand up for the restaurant and support them. It felt great to be cared for and protected.
Of course, this was all because of the boss. Boss’s sincere att.i.tude toward the food made the customers willing to stand up to protect the restaurant.
That deputy lord of the Gray Temple came over, scooped up a bowl of red soup from the pot in front of Fox, and slammed it down in front of him. He gestured to him, and said, “Cheers.”
Fox looked at the insanely spicy red soup that had red chilies and red chili oil floating on top with an ashen face.
“This is the chance for you to profess your love. You can’t miss it,” Jinx said, feeling schadenfreude. That mouthful of chili earlier had already sent his soul out of his body. Fox would most probably ascend to the heavens after drinking this bowl of red soup with chilies.
Fox looked at those unfriendly gazes around him, and realized that if he refused to drink this bowl of red soup, he most probably wouldn’t leave this place alive. However, this red soup…
He gulped. His throat already felt the burnt before he even drank it.
“You refuse?” That deputy lord’s voice became even colder.
“Cheers.” Fox lifted the hot bowl with both his hands after he felt the hostility. He tilted back his head and downed the red chili oil soup.
The piping hot oil rushed into his mouth cavity together with the spiciness that resembled a hurricane.
“Pfft~”
Fox heard a sound clearly. The taste buds were all scalded to death before they could even celebrate.
Fox’s face turned red immediately, and the redness quickly spread to his neck and head, all the way until his whole person became red. White steam emerged from his head as if he was in a sauna.
The scary spiciness agitated the scalded wounds, and Fox’s mind was completely blank. His vision had also become blurry as if he had gone blind. The spicy hot sensation made him want to open a hole at the top of his head to release some of the heat.
The boiling red soup went down the throat like a blunt knife stabbing its way down slowly. That feeling was many times worse than killing him with a single strike of the blade. His body began to tremble uncontrollably, and it was comparable to any kind of torture.
The broth entered its stomach, and before the heat could disperse, it exploded in his stomach like a bomb. His stomach began to cramp, and this pain from the inside of his body was comparable to having his limbs cut off.
“Rip!”
After a crisp sound, Fox’s clothes exploded instantly, and dragon scales began to appear on his body. His body expanded instantaneously, and the chair he was sitting on was crushed to bits. He had transformed into a 30-meter-tall giant dragon in the blink of an eye.
“Roar!”
The frost dragon tilted back its head and let out an angry roar. At the same time, he spat out a red column of fire.
“Holy f*ck. Is this hot pot laden with drugs? It could even change his attribute!” Jinx was shocked. This was the first time in his life that he saw a frost dragon spit fire.
The other three frost dragons were shocked too, but they were surrounded by big bosses, so they dared not speak up, and could only look at Fox worriedly.
Harrison was s.h.i.+vering, hugging his bowl. However, he didn’t forget to take the duck intestine out from the pot and put it into his bowl before letting out a breath of relief. It was almost overcooked.
However, he began to worry for himself as he looked at the 30 meters tall giant dragon next to him. It was he who recommended the insanely spicy level… Would this giant dragon, who was smashed by a pig before, look for trouble with him after this issue was over?
That deputy lord looked up, and calmly asked Fox, “Did you become so big because you want to fight?”
In the eyes of a powerhouse, there was no difference between an insect and an insect that became bigger.
Fox knew that rationale very well, so he rapidly shrunk down into a three-meter-tall miniature dragon. However, he was still in his dragon form because his body was undergoing repairs, and he couldn’t maintain his human form. With a crushed expression, he said, “My lord, please don’t take this the wrong way. I can only endure like this.”
“Since you like hot pot, finish all the ingredients and broth. In the future, if you want to tear down Mamy Restaurant, come and tell me first. I will go and dismantle Frost Dragon Island if I don’t get to eat the red braised pork,” the deputy lord said seriously.
“Yes, yes.” Fox quickly nodded. He was feeling very aggrieved, but he didn’t show it on his face. He felt horrible.
The rest of the customers sat down, and continued to enjoy their food after they saw Fox surrender.
Jinx looked at Fox, who was now dipping his hot pot obediently, before staring at Yabemiya who was busy serving the customers. He mumbled in his heart, I will have to talk to this young maiden later. A child of the Golden Dragons cannot roam around on her own in this world.
