The restaurant’s shopkeeper was the closest to Alder, and he could see the scene the clearest among them.
He stared wide-eyed as Fiona chewed on the monster meat and bones easily in a few bites.
He was astonished as the chefs could not cut open the bones with a cleaver, and they must use an ax to cut the meat!
Fiona‘s mouthful of pearly whites was like a guillotine.
At this moment, the shopkeeper only felt his neck getting cold.
Besides, the shopkeeper knew well that although monster meat was a great source of vital energy for the warriors, it was challenging to digest due to its toughness.
Despite owning big woks in the restaurant, the chefs still needed to continuously cook the monster meat for two days and two nights for it to be cooked through.
However, an ordinary warrior might need around eight days to fully digest the dishes, yet the young man in front of him seemed to have a black hole in his belly.
Fiona devoured every dish that appeared before him, and he did not look as if he was full either.
Fiona took a crab as big as a washbowl and gnawed on it.
Not only did he finish eating the crabmeat, but he even crunched on the crab shell too.Everyone stared at him in disbelief as Fiona acted as if the shell was just a crunchy biscuit.
The shopkeeper had never seen that scene before.
There were no words to describe the surprise he was feeling this time.
The young man in front of him was a monster!
How could that be a human? He was a humanoid monster!
He might even be scarier than a humanoid monster!
After observing for a while, the shopkeeper frowned slightly.
Then, he dismissed the waiter and asked him to serve the other customers.
Next, he pondered for a moment before approaching Edgar.
Finally, be greeted Fiona tentatively, “Gentleman, may I know your name?”
“Hmm?” Fiona looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper instantly felt a hint of pressure from Fiona’s gaze, and he was so nervous that he hurriedly introduced himself, “I’m the owner of this Mystical Guest Restaurant.”
Although Fiona was somewhat unhappy as the shopkeeper bothered him, he was still the restaurant’s owner.
Moreover, Fiona was eating here, and he was not in a rush, so he just nodded slightly.
“What’s the matter?”
“I’d like to ask if you’re using the monster meat to replenish your Qi and blood as well as strengthening your body?” The shopkeeper asked.
Fiona gave him an angry look It was such an obvious matter, yet the owner still asked him about it.
Hence, it was apparent that he had something to talk about with Alder, so Fiona just replied with a hum.
Fiona’s indifferent attitude did not push away the shopkeeper.
Instead, he laughed and asked, “May I sit here?”
“This is your restaurant.
Can I say otherwise? What’s the need to be so mysterious?” Fiona asked straightforwardly.
“Since you’re so direct, then I won’t beat around the bushes anymore.” The shopkeeper’s eyes lit up, took a seat beside Alder, and continued questioning, “Since you’re replenishing your Qi and blood, do you know about blood essence?”
Fiona nodded and glanced at the shopkeeper.
“I do.
It’s a valuable medicine that can help a warrior replenish their Qi and blood, and it’s sold in the Oceans Chamber of Commerce.
I just came from there.”
“Then, do you know that blood essence not only has the monster essence but also a lot of medicinal ingredients? The effect of it is much stronger than directly swallowing monster meat?” The shopkeeper asked again.
Seeing the shopkeeper asking him many questions but not mentioning his purpose at all, Fiona stopped in his act and looked at the shopkeeper.
Then, he showed a faint smile.
“I’m sure you know how much a bottle of blood essence is.
