Chapter 449: Farewell
Belldate Wonderland World, Statue Restaurant.
Here, you order at the counter, so after a quick game of rock-paper-scissors, Ashe and Banjeet ended up going to place the order. Losing to Igor was one thing, but Harvey had actually used the “Ghost King Shackles” to temporarily transform into the most efficient Mech-spirit, cheating his way to a flawless victory in a best-of-five game!
As Ashe recalled everyone’s orders and approached the counter to speak, the staff member placed two trays in front of him. “Lala Fatty’s Conquering the Abyss, black pepper steak, braised beef Lala Fatty, coconut tart… drinks are lemon water and bitter orange tea… here’s one pack of napkins and one pack of wet wipes. Enjoy your meal.”
While Ashe was still in a daze, Banjeet had already paid and was carrying the trays back. Observing his surroundings, Ashe noticed that the counter area was even quieter than inside the restaurant. When travelers arrived, the staff would promptly deliver their food, reducing the transaction time to within five seconds. The counter area looked like a seamless, silent, and precise assembly line.
Back at their table, Igor asked, “After the fireworks show, we should head back, right? Ashe, don’t tell me you have more things you want to do?”
“It depends on Lise and the Young Lady. As long as we can get back before 11 PM, I’m good,” Ashe replied. “Speaking of which, Igor, do you have any regrets?”
“Regret not kicking you off the ‘Rapid Spin’ ride earlier?”
“Regret not becoming Belldate’s son-in-law!” Ashe said while reaching for Harvey’s fries. “If you married Anfel, this amusement park would be yours! And not just this amusement park, half of Gospel’s entertainment venues would belong to Leia—your future daughter!”
From the name itself, it’s clear that the owner of this Wonderland World is the Belldate Family, led by Yvaren. In fact, the Belldate Family is Gospel’s top entertainment giant, dominating the sector from virtual games to physical entertainment venues. The Belldate Group has expanded its reach to the utmost, making an indomitable mark in the entertainment industry. Even the virtual games Ashe used to play were a small business under Yvaren’s empire.
