Chapter 104 The Consequence Of Disregarding Transcendence First Rule
"PLEASE HELP ME!"
"SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!"
"I'LL GIVE YOU ALL OF MY TREASURES AND RESOURCES! JUST HELP! PLEASE!"
"Chef Lucian... I-I'm sorry! I swear on my blood and Soul I will never disregard your rules. Please help me. You must have a way, right!?" Yax got down on his knees and kowtowed repeatedly in Lucian's direction.
It took him fifty years and many resources to become a Blood Tempering Realm Mage!
The number of dirty jobs he had done for rich Mages numbered in the dozens. It was all for the sake of increasing his Mage Rank.
He did not want to be a cripple! He refused to be a cripple!
Lucian remained indifferent to his pleas. Even if he wanted to help him there was nothing he could do. He was merely a Mana Condensation Realm Mage.
As Yax continued wailing for help, his Mana Veins had already expanded to their limit.
*Pop*
His Mana Veins could no longer take the strain and in an instant exploded.
"Blurgh." Yax coughed out a mouthful of blood onto the spotless brown wooden floorboards.
'Bastard!' Lucian visibly frowned. 'How dare he spit such filth onto my restaurant's floor?'
The lingering fragrant aroma of Lucian's dishes was swiftly overpowered by the harsh, metallic scent of blood.
However, Yax paid it no heed as his focus was entirely on his Mana slipping away from his pores.
Brown, murky liquid oozed from his pores and pooled underneath his sorry, crumbled figure.
Following this, the restaurant became eerily silent.
The three nobodies who had previously backed away from Yax began to tremble violently. They swiftly backed away even further into a corner with pale faces and eyes filled with fear.
Li Yong and Anselm nervously gulped.
They could not believe a person had been crippled just like that. A second ago, he was crying tears of joy, now... his face was stained with tears of sorrow and pain.
Suddenly being crippled was a hard pill to swallow for any Mage. Even death was better than living as a cripple.
The others were also equally stunned and could not believe Yax had been crippled.
"Holy shit! Chef Lucian's first rule wasn't a joke!?" Hervy cursed with a shocked face. He, of course, knew Chef Lucian's dishes contained Mana, but only now that he saw someone crippled from consuming his dish did reality hit him.
Lucian eyed Hervy from the corner of his eyes and said in a cold tone, "This is what happens when someone disrespects my rules. Being blacklisted from my restaurant is the least my customers should worry about."
Hervy shuddered as he gazed at the crippled young man who had fallen unconscious due to an extreme amount of sorrow.
'That could have been me...' Hervy's eyes held a complicated flicker.
Lucian's expression then changed and he indifferently continued "I'm no longer in the mood. My restaurant is closed for the day. Please come back tomorrow to taste my two new dishes — the Sweet Berry Cream Glazed Dough Balls and Cheese and Herb Garlic Butter Dough Balls."
While being gazed at with shocked expressions, Lucian headed to the kitchen.
[Lily, remember to take the bills.]
Lily was startled but she quickly nodded and moved to handle the payments.
Soon, most of the patrons left after paying their bills and saying their goodbyes to Lucian.
Although they had witnessed their fair share of bloodshed and had even caused bloodshed of their own, they were slightly shaken. After all, the young man was crippled from eating the Siren's Melody Poached Egg.
They had never thought such a thing was possible until today. It also made them keenly aware of why Chef Lucian had such a rule on his menu. It was for their own good!
