Chapter 34: 34 : Anticipation
The following day, the morning sun rose from the eastern horizon, casting a warm golden light across the sky. The sweet melodies of birds filled the air, their songs echoing the sounds of nature. The gentle morning breeze whispered through the trees, creating a symphony of rustling leaves. It was a scene of perfect harmony and beauty, with every element working together in flawless unity.
-----------------------
In the Edel District, Felix and his companions had already risen early, earlier than usual, while the children still slumbered. After completing their morning routines, they all donned their finest attire and now stood at the entrance of the mansion, exuding elegance and sophistication.
Felix was clad in a pristine white suit that hugged his slender frame flawlessly. The suit boasted gold buttons and a collar adorned with subtle golden patterns. His ensemble was completed with a pair of white shoes, creating a monochromatic look that was only missing a Rolex watch to perfect his outfit.
Zephyr sported a striking black and gold suit, complemented by a long, elegant overcoat in the same color scheme. His ensemble was finished with impeccable black shoes, exuding a sense of refinement and style.
Brixton donned a wine-colored suit that accentuated his robust physique, paired with brown shoes that added a touch of energy to his appearance.
Trinity dazzled in a long blue evening dress adorned with intricate patterns that highlighted her figure exquisitely. A beautiful necklace adorned her slender neck, while her cascading golden hair added a touch of ethereal beauty. Crystal blue high heels completed her ensemble, enhancing her snow-white skin and perfect figure.
Gwendolyn exuded an air of cold nobility in a long black evening dress embellished with golden flower patterns. A golden ribbon cinched her slender waist, accentuating her full and developed body. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, and a gold bracelet adorned her left hand, completing her regal appearance.
Nixie radiated charm and liveliness in a long pink dress adorned with delicate flower patterns. The dress accentuated her figure flawlessly, paired with crystal pink shoes and a matching hairpin that added a touch of cuteness to her overall look.
All of them appeared refined in their attire, resembling young masters and misses from prominent families.
"Big bro, these clothes are truly exquisite. I have never seen such elegant and beautiful garments before," Nixie exclaimed with excitement, her eyes sparkling with admiration as she looked at her outfit.
"Yes, these clothes are indeed beautiful and luxurious," Trinity added.
The others shared the same expression of awe, having never encountered such attire before.
Felix chuckled, of course these clothes were different, the style of clothing was different from that of the Sylphendil World.
He had personally hired two skilled tailors and provided them with the design drawings, as Earth fashion was far more advanced. This new style of clothing had taken them by surprise.
"I believe if you were to sell these clothes, they would be highly sought after," Zephyr remarked, with the others nodding in agreement.
However, Felix simply shook his head, rubbing his temples appearing fatigued. Upon closer inspection, faint dark circles could be seen under his eyes.
"Are you alright? You seem tired. Did you not get enough sleep last night?" Trinity inquired, noticing Felix's weary appearance.
Felix's lips twitched slightly at Trinity's question, recalling the events of the previous night, causing his eyes to twitch involuntarily.
---------------------
[ Ding : Congratulations Host for becoming a Tier 1 Beginner Mage, the Cultivation Shop Section have been Unlocked ] the system notification ranged loudly in Felix ears.
Felix who was lying on the big queen size bed,having a nice and sweet dream was immediately scared awake.
" What the fuck!" Felix shot up from the bed with a pale face.
Felix frantically looked around, " System what the fuck is going ".
" The system just wanted to remind the Host that because you have become a Mage the Cultivation Shop Section have been unlock " the system replied indifferently.
Felix's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you fucking kidding me?" he exclaimed, rendered speechless by the situation.
Gritting his teeth, " You did this on purpose right system?".
"No, Host, I assure you, I would never stoop so low as to do something like that on purpose," the system replied disdainfully.
"Why didn't you mention this earlier, instead of waiting until the middle of the night while I was trying to sleep?" Felix roared in frustration.
"I forgot," the system admitted.
"You forgot!? I curse you and your entire family, may you never find a girlfriend in your lifetime!" Felix seethed with anger.
"Well, Host, unfortunately, I don't have a family, and I am not a living being," the system retorted mockingly.
" I..I.. " Felix was left speechless, his words caught in his throat.
----------------------
Recalling the previous night, he clenched his fists in anger. The system had disrupted his sleep, leaving him restless until dawn.
Attempting to brush off the incident, Felix waved his hand and smiled at Trinity. "Don't worry about it. I couldn't sleep last night because I was excited about the restaurant opening today."
Trinity nodded in understanding, choosing not to delve further into the matter.
Just then the sound of horses approached, as two elegant carriages pulled by two majestic horses pulled up in front of them. One was pure white with golden patterns, while the other was black and gold.
Formally dressed coachmen driving the carriages, opened the doors of the carriages with precision.
Felix nodded and Turned around, a maid in uniform was standing behind him,she was quite old in her thirties although she was not that beautiful but she has a pleasing appearance and there ten young maids standing respectfully behind her.
Felix instructed her, "Silvia, we will be on our way. Please take care of the children and ensure the mansion is well looked after in our absence."
"Yes, Master," Silvia replied respectfully, bowing her head.
Felix then boarded the white carriage with Zephyr and Brixton, while Trinity, Gwendolyn, and Nixie entered the black and gold carriage.
With a crack of the whip, the horses elegantly trotted forward, pulling the carriages as they made their way out of sight from the mansion.
It didn't take long for them to completely leave the Edel District behind. Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the Audaz District, where it seemed there were more people than usual bustling about.
The carriages continued navigating through the streets of Audaz District until they finally stopped at the entrance of a grand and beautiful restaurant.
As the carriages came to a halt, two men in purple valet uniforms, adorned with white gloves, stepped forward to open the doors. Felix and the others gracefully exited the carriages, smiles lighting up their faces.
The valets smiled and bowed slightly as a gesture of welcome before the group entered the restaurant.
Two more valets then appeared to guide the carriages to an exclusive parking space.
Inside the restaurant, a team of waiters in fine uniforms, both male and female, were diligently preparing the tables.
Felix and the others wasted no time and headed towards the wooden elevator behind the stone white desk, making their way to the fourth floor.
Upon entering the office on the fourth floor, they all took their seats, with Felix settling into the chair behind the desk.
"Ok guys today is the grand opening of our restaurant," Felix announced, looking around at his companions.
Trinity, Gwendolyn, Brixton, Zephyr, and Nixie all showed signs of excitement in their eyes. In just two short months, their lives had undergone significant changes.
From poverty and living in the slums, where affording three square meals a day was a struggle.
Now they're living the high life in a luxurious mansion, indulging in the finest cuisine, and sporting the most stylish and comfortable attire.
The best part? They're all Mana Cultivators now, wielding power and wealth that 99% of regular folks can only dream of achieving. It all feels like a fantasy come true for them.
"Today is the grand opening of our first business, so we need to ensure everything runs smoothly without any hiccups," Felix said, narrowing his eyes.
Nixie, who was sitting beside Trinity raised her hand and caught Felix's attention. "Umm big bro, why didn't we come up with a plan like the discount idea you mentioned?" she asked, prompting the others to look at her as well.
Felix shook his head and posed a question to Nixie. "What kind of restaurant are we running?"
Nixie replied confidently, "We're running a high-class restaurant catering to the wealthy and powerful."
"Exactly," Felix nodded. "Now, where are we located?"
"In the Audaz District," Nixie answered.
Felix smiled. "And what makes the Audaz District stand out from the rest?"
"It's a high-class area where the elite of Brigdemoor City like to socialize," Nixie responded.
"Correct. This is a high-class establishment in a high-class district. Offering discounts would undermine our image," Felix explained.
In order to successfully operate a high-end and prestigious restaurant such as this one, it is crucial to understand the mindset of affluent individuals. The wealthy do not concern themselves with trivial amounts of money, particularly in a world where power and wealth reign supreme. They may even perceive discounts as an affront to their status," Felix explained.
"Furthermore, it is imperative to establish our restaurant's identity to the public. We must convey that our establishment is unparalleled in its elegance and sophistication. It is essential to cultivate a strong brand image so that when our restaurant is mentioned, it is immediately associated with exclusivity and luxury.
Our goal is to be recognized as a premier destination for the elite and influential individuals in society ". Felix continue to explain.
Nixie thought about Felix's words and had a realization, "I understand, big bro."
" Good" Felix smiled,the reason he talked a lot was because he wanted to train Nixie, apart from him, only her management talent is the best among them.
In fact over the past month, he had dedicated some of his time to teaching Nixie about modern management and business knowledge, which is why she mentioned the discount. It was a unique idea in a world that was lacking in business strategy.
Knock! knock! knock!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting their conversation.
Felix glanced at the door, " come in ".
The door opened and Chef Gideon entered the office in his chef uniform.
" Good morning " He greeted Felix and the others with a smile.
"Good morning." Felix nodded and responded. The others also nodded at Chef Gideon.
" How is the kitchen? I hope everything is alright there ".Felix asked.
Chef Gideon confidently patted his chest, "Don't worry, Mr. Felix, everything is running smoothly."
Felix nodded in approval and announced,"Alright, guys, it's time to open the restaurant for business." He grinned with excitement with anticipation in his eyes.
