Villains' Sisters Yearn for my Copious Mana

Chapter 84: The reality of the cooking scene

After a few minutes of calming herself down, mainly her snatch, Faith ran toward her bathroom. She bathed as quickly as possible, then used magic to dry her hair.

She donned herself in one of the most gorgeous dresses in her inventory. She then spent around thirty minutes combing her hair, puffing pleasant on her curves, then picking up small accessories.

"You make me feel guilty for not preparing too much," Max said, standing in a black shirt, jeans, and other casual clothes. Those were perfect for dates, yet Faith's appearance was so gorgeous that she outshone stars and possibly people in Zion.

But as Zion was a vast place with many prodigies and high talents, Max believed that Faith at least would give them a run for the beauty contest.

Faith glanced at him, replying with a faint smile, "You look good, Master." She wrapped her arm around his, squeezing him between her chest. Her dress accentuated her curves and those peaks, so Max was in heaven just from having her act closely with him.

He didn't miss faint details regarding her attitude, too.

Max noticed that she called him by his favorite title more casually, to say nothing of her being more cuddly with him.

That alone said more than enough, satisfying Max, "Show me around Zion, beautiful."

"Yes," Faith nodded, taking the lead.

It was a huge place.

Zion and its perfect architecture with grand business would leave everyone speechless, including Max. It was a much different experience to look at it from the inside than the outside.

Everything was vast, grand, and soaked in high-quality mana.

​ Max would be able to find everything he wanted here. And if there was no item here, he surely would find some clues from all business owners.

"From what I saw… Cooking seems like the most prominent business type," Max saw many restaurants in his short walk with Faith.

His servant nodded, replying with new information, "Those restaurants have a system that allows everyone to enter Zion. It is limited to their building, but even the mortal without any mana would be able to enter Zion should he have an invitation.

I believe Master aims for something similar.

Cooking is a popular business method because rare ingredients cooked by a splendid cook can induce miracles in our bodies. And if Master looks a few shops ahead to the right, you will understand the full picture of it," Faith added with an emotionless tone.

Max was curious about her sudden change of tone. But when he saw a grand restaurant Faith pointed at, his heart turned cold, and his eyes narrowed.

A grand building with two eastern dragons atop it. Those were naturally statues, but what they represented triggered Max's heart.

Those dragons had knives lodged within them.

And between their forms, the restaurant's name hovered, drawing everyone's attention, "Taste the dragon."

Faith explained slowly, keeping Max's emotions in check as she held his arm tightly in her chest, her little hands pulling his cloth, "Dragon Slayers have become prominent enough to serve dragon's flesh in the Zion. They also have a few restaurants outside the world, but this one is the safest.

And this is the reality of the cooking scene," Faith added.

"Tell me about battles in the Zion," Max said, not taking his eyes off the restaurant.

Faith licked her lips before parting them, "You can't challenge anyone, Master. If a newbie like you could change established businesses like that, there wouldn't be peace in Zion. People would continuously aim for each other's necks.

You can issue a challenge to take over their business. Whether they notice you and agree to it is up to them… There's also pressure from others, though.

If a few existences join against one, the business must answer the challenge."

"I have dragon wives," Max said, glaring at the restaurant, "I don't need anyone to help me issue the challenge. I am also not blind enough to act on it right now.

I must get more strength. And I will simply do it in my way," Max turned around, going toward the new businesses that started recently.

Perhaps, they would meet one of Fate Stars here. Maybe someone from The Tower would notice him. Regardless, Max wanted to invite talented ladies to his hot springs, leverage their mana, and give them his blessings.

He needed to attract others and earn enough money to start other businesses.

"Tanja Green. She's a new pharmacist in Zion. She appeared here a few months before you, and her servants had checked on our hot springs business in the mountains. I have an inkling she might be a fate star or someone who wants to find more ingredients in the Zion World," Faith said while sitting on a bench with her Master.

They had their eyes on the small pharmacist shop, which had some people coming in and out.

Her business flourished but was not on the same scale as the dragon slayers' restaurants and other businesses.

"Pharmacist… It's also important business, isn't it?" Max asked seriously, for he didn't know how important medicines were in the vast universe.

In his world, people bought medicines from shops. And in the worse case, people went to the hospital. But could people trust others like humans from Earth regarding medicines?

He suspected that every world and clan had its own medical department.

Faith smiled faintly, liking his thoughts, "There's a popular clan in Zion whose medicine business is spread across high-level worlds. They hail from The Tower, their fame and goodwill known by everyone.

Their stuff is expensive, but they have some cheap medicines too. Their flaw is that too many people rely on them. They have queues in Zion, and their business thrives in just high-level worlds.

This girl gathers the attention of those who can't wait. She's doing fine, I reckon," Faith explained, adding that Tanja might have a clan or someone else behind her in the universe.

Green was probably a fake surname.

Max was a weirdo who didn't really have anything to back him up. His grandpa left some stuff, but that was it.

Nonetheless, it was time to step in and make some connections, "Let's make some friends, then."

After entering the shop, Max and Faith immediately headed to the counter, where a woman with green hair and blue eyes gently served her clients. She maneuvered the system perfectly, her goods disappearing into her client's inventories.

And she also received pay through the system, which was convenient and safe.

"Good evening," Tanja Green smiled at Max and Faith, not recognizing them. Her servants, however, flinched when they saw Faith, their whispers reaching their mistress.

Max saw and even read their communication through his eyes glazed in [Mana Read]. He smiled, retracting his attention to the lady.

He extended his hand, saying, "I have also started a business here."

"Are you the owner of the mountain with hot springs?" Tanja Green asked, then smiled courteously after Max nodded to her words, "It's an odd choice. It will be hard for you to promote your business here.

People arrive in the capital by invitation, then move around the town to find what they need. It's known that Zion has no content outside the capital, and I have personally tasted it, for I naively thought that there might be some herds outside…."

Max chuckled, "It's also dangerous to leave the capital to move to the mountain, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's why I said it's an odd choice," Tanja Green responded to his question with a dazzling smile.

"And yet, you have checked the mountain. I can only hope that more people like you notice that a new business started outside of it. Those lazy clients who can only move their fat asses in the capital will miss good content.

Well, it's a pity, though. I wouldn't mind having a fat ass girl in my hot springs," Max grinned.

His choice of words and his bluntness threw Tanja Green out of her flow. She blinked, gazing at him with her lips parted.

Her servants were the same.

"My hot springs are helpful mainly for ladies. If you happen to find your shoulders stiff, tired body, or simply in need of having a good and rewarding bath, you can arrive in my hot springs for the best cure," Max said, then looked at one of the medicines. He picked up something for a headache after mana stimulation, which was common for many people.

He then bought it, for he didn't want to waste the girl's time.

That was courtesy from his side.

And with those words, Max and Faith turned around.

The Master spoke enough, thanked the girl for listening to him after promoting his business, then left. Faith's presence made him stand out, and she did more than enough with her dazzling smile.

They went to more new businesses, inviting girls from many occupations.

And with that done, Faith and Max returned to their home.
