A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

led by Darryl or Kurt and killed on the spot, your heads hanging on masts.” Kurt put his hands down and looked at Durward.
He lowered his voice, and said, “Maybe you’re not aware of it yet, but your head is now worth 1,000,000 copper coins.”

When Durward heard that, he frowned.
He thought for a while before putting his magic caster’s staff down.
He looked intently at Kernen, and said, “What do you want?”

“I owe Chief Isaiah a favor.
Back then, he saved my mother, who was picking herbs, from a tiger.
Of course, that might be an insignificant event for the chief.
A person as kind as him must have done a lot of similar deeds, but for my mother who came back with the herbs, and pulled me back from the verge of death, I owe him both my mother’s life and my life.
A person like him should not have died like that,” Kernen said with sorrow.

“Cut all that hypocrisy.
When the rebellion army broke through the city wall, you were standing right beside Jeremy.
Have you ever thought of sparing the chief and his family?” Durward questioned angrily.

“I was unable to stand by the chief’s side.” Kernen’s gaze became dimmer.
However, he still looked into Durward’s eyes, and said, “But I let Princess Connie off.
I think she survived.
Gary did not manage to find her.”

“You were the one who let Connie off?!” Durward and the other orcs were overjoyed when they heard it.

“I didn’t have the ability to save the chief, and could only do a little to save Princess Connie.
I still owe Chief Isaiah a lot,” Kernen said.

“So why are you here today?” Durward looked at Kernen with bewilderment.

“Today is the day of the conferring ceremony.
Gary wants to execute Young Master Ferdinand in front of everyone, and therefore get rid of any possible chances of overthrowing him.
If Young Master Ferdinand died, the chief would only be left with Princess Connie.
Even the chief’s loyal guard might not be able to help her become the new chief.
Therefore, tonight will be the last chance.” Kernen looked at Durward and took two steps forward.
He lowered his voice, and said, “I’m in charge of guarding the southwestern gate today.
These men I chose to bring with me are all my people.
All of you, change into black armor, and when you see three torches lit at the southwestern gate, make use of the darkness of the night.
I’ll let you all in.”

Durward was overjoyed when he heard that.
He grabbed Kernen’s hand, and said, “If we succeed today, we will definitely thank you greatly when the young master regains control of the Falk Tribe.”

“That’s what I should do.
It’s very dangerous after you get into the city.
All of you must be very careful.” Kernen grabbed Durward’s hand back, and gave him a tight handshake before turning to leave quickly.

“Don’t just drink.
Come, have some ceph— fish.” Mag chuckled happily as he hosted the orcs from the alley near the door who came to collect the corpses.
He put a freshly grilled fish in front of them and filled their wine cup.

“This wine… this fish… perfect… superb…” an orc with a scar stuttered as he hugged a wooden pillar at the side.

The orcs at the side drank another two bowls of wine and lay on the ground, drunk, with a foolish smile hanging on their faces.

“Alright, have a few more drinks.
Everything might be different once you’re awake.” Mag put the vat of wine down, and walked out of the alley, smiling.

“Serve the last dish.
It’s time for us to watch the show,” Mag said as he entered the kitchen and took his apron off.
