Without wasting any time, the three Kaziens immediately walked over and sat down in the empty seats next to Alvin, Allen, and Arken at the same time.
"Y-Young Master..." the waitress's voice trembled violently from shock. The tray in her hand almost fell. "W-why are you... why are there many of you?!"
One of the Kaziens sitting with Arken turned and smiled casually at her.
"Ah... this is magic taught by Arken, this fiancé of mine." answered Kazien while wrapping his arm around Arken's neck affectionately, giving credit to his new fiancé. "I split myself like this so I can be fair to the three of them. This way, I can focus on them one by one without anyone feeling ignored."
Silence fell over the restaurant's open area for a few seconds, before finally being broken by gasps of admiration.
No one had ever expected that high-level magic, usually used for battle or reconnaissance, would be used just for a fair date in broad daylight. It was an absurd yet extraordinary form of dedication to love.
"A-Amazing!" exclaimed a male customer sitting at the opposite table, standing up in awe. "I never thought you would use that magic just to be fair to your three fiancés, Young Master! You are truly a real man!"
Hearing that praise, the three figures of Kazien simultaneously turned towards the crowd of customers in the open area. They flashed a happy smile full of sincerity to everyone. The smile was so bright, so captivating under the sunlight, radiating a lethal charisma.
Seeing that 'deadly smile', Alvin and Allen sitting at their respective tables instantly tensed up. They exchanged panic-stricken glances. They knew very well the destructive effect of Kazien's sincere smile.
They braced themselves to accept all the chaos that would happen to everyone around them.
This is going to be dangerous! thought Alvin in panic, his hand gripping the tablecloth. That smile... everyone here will definitely be captivated by him!
The atmosphere in the restaurant's open area suddenly fell silent after Kazien smiled. At their respective tables, Alvin and Allen instantly tensed up. Their bodies leaned forward, their muscles on full alert, ready to fend off the wave of people that might surge forward, mesmerized by their fiancé's lethal smile.
Seconds passed. A gentle breeze blew.
However, after waiting for a long time in combat mode, no chaos ensued. There were no hysterical screams, no crowds pushing forward, and no mass fainting. The customers and pedestrians just smiled in admiration, whispered politely, and then returned to their activities.
Alvin and Allen exchanged glances from a distance with furrowed brows. Confusion washed over them.
What is happening here? thought Allen in confusion, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. Why isn't everyone here going crazy over Kazien's sincere smile? Usually, the effect is much more destructive than this.
The same went for Alvin. He slowly relaxed his stiff shoulders.
This is unexpected! said Alvin to himself, feeling amazed yet incredibly relieved. Maybe because they see Kazien as someone 'unattainable' with three fiancés at once, so they are hesitant? Who knows. But at least our date isn't interrupted by everyone getting captivated by his smile.
At the third table, Arken, who was still innocent and unaware of the 'Kazien smile effect', could only look at their behavior in confusion. He saw Alvin and Allen looking around like security guards.
What's wrong with those two? thought Arken, confused, while chewing on the tip of his straw. Why do they have to be on alert like that? Is there someone with bad intentions towards us? Or is there a monster in disguise?
Meanwhile, the male customer who had praised Kazien spoke up again, breaking the internal awkwardness of the fiancés.
"Ah... so that's it, Young Master!" exclaimed the customer, nodding in amazement. "I never thought you could think of high-level magic like that just to split your time with your three fiancés. That is extraordinary dedication."
"Hahaha."
Crisp laughter from the three Kazien figures broke out simultaneously in the restaurant, creating a unique harmony of voices.
"As long as I can always see smiles on their faces, I will do anything. Magic is just a tool! Their happiness is the goal." answered Kazien sincerely.
That answer made everyone there admire and respect Kazien even more. Whispers of admiration began to change topics. Seeing how Kazien acted fairly, protected his family, and brought prosperity to Lazavis City, their thoughts drifted to the future of this region.
"Look at him!" whispered someone at the next table. "He is wise and strong. Kazien is the one suitable to become the leader of the territory rather than Young Master William."
"True! His aura and charisma are far more authoritative."
Faint snippets of that conversation were heard by Kazien's sharp ears. However, he immediately raised his hand, gently brushing aside those political hopes with a humble smile.
"Thank you for the compliment. However, I am not interested." said Kazien casually but firmly, loud enough for those around him to hear. "I have no ambition to become a leader of a territory or get involved in a power struggle. My siblings and I have already agreed to support Brother William. Moreover, I just want to live quietly, enjoying peaceful days with the three of them."
That statement stunned the citizens again. No one ever expected that Kazien, who possessed natural charisma and strength as a great leader, was not interested in the slightest in becoming a territorial ruler. He chose love over the throne.
Shortly after the conversation subsided, a mouth-watering aroma began to waft through the air.
The awaited 'Complete Lover's Package' finally arrived. However, there was a sight that made Kazien and Alvin raise their eyebrows. The figure carrying the tray with the orders was not the pretty waitress from earlier, but a tall and dashing middle-aged man with a chef's apron strapped to his body.
It was Borin, the chef and owner of the restaurant.
Seeing Borin struggling to deliver the trays himself, Kazien, who was sitting next to Alvin, laughed softly, unable to believe what he was seeing.
"Hahaha. Why are you delivering it here yourself, Borin?" asked Kazien in surprise. "Don't you usually never leave your sacred kitchen?"
Borin placed the tray carefully on the table while wiping sweat from his forehead. He grinned broadly.
"I delivered it just out of curiosity, Young Master." answered Borin honestly, his eyes glancing enthusiastically at the three fully occupied tables. "My daughter said in the kitchen that you have another future fiancé besides Young Master Alvin. I had to see it with my own eyes!"
Hearing the chef's words, Kazien and Alvin were taken aback.
"Daughter?" repeated Kazien. "So, the waitress who served us earlier is your daughter?"
Borin nodded proudly, puffing out his chest slightly. "Yes, Young Master. She is my daughter. Her name is Liena."
That unexpected information astonished Kazien and Alvin. All this time, they thought the friendly woman was just an ordinary employee hired by Borin.
In the distance, Liena, who was standing near the kitchen door, waved her small hand and smiled sweetly at Kazien. Her beautiful face could be clearly seen under the sunlight.
"Ah, no wonder her smile is friendly like yours," joked Kazien.
"Hahaha. You flatter me, Young Master." exclaimed Borin while holding the tray with three portions of their ordered menu.
"In that case, please enjoy this 'Complete Lover's Package', Young Master. Special, love portion!" said Borin again while placing a large bowl of noodles and a tall glass of pink drink one by one on all the tables.
"Thank you very much, Borin."
Then, Borin went back into the restaurant building after bowing to Kazien and his three fiancés, leaving them with the steaming hot dishes.
