Salute To The General

Chapter 728 Do Not Try That With Me

Noting how Penny and the rest seemed rather glum after coming back from Springfield, Nathan advised them to cheer up. To take their minds off of the earlier events, he brought them to Indigo Palace for dinner.

Founded several hundreds of years ago, Indigo Palace was one of Cledondale's most famous restaurants. One of the reasons for their fame was their roasted duck.

Under normal circumstances, someone who made a booking a few days beforehand might not even be able to get a table. Thus, it could be said that anyone who managed to eat there was someone rich or powerful.

With Nathan's capabilities, it was easy to reserve the restaurant's best private room forthem.

They arrived at the restaurant just as it was peak dinner time so the place was filled to the brim with customers. Near the doors, a long queue had formed as people waited on the spot for empty tables.

The moment Nathan and the rest stepped inside, the manager, Minnie, bustled forward to greet them politely, "Welcome. Do you have a reservation, sir?"

"| have a reservation for the Celestial Room," Nathan replied with a smile.

Minnie's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. The Celestial Room was the best private room they had. Normally, they left the room empty just in case any powerful figures suddenly came.
