Chapter 26: Will Disappears

Dio didnt know that [The World] caused a certain fuss in Himalaya. When a human was too happy, they tend to stop thinking about their surroundings, even after that Dio just readjusted his breathing and slept.

The next day, it was another peaceful day.

It was too peaceful, in fact. That day several people were interested in having dinner at Dios place, but they quickly changed their mind after hearing about Dios special rules and the price.

There is no menu, you just eat whatever the chef cooked for you.

Each person can only enjoy up to three dishes for at least 10,000 dollars!

These two rules are enough to drive away 99% of the guests.

Even the next day, Dio had no customers despite opening his restaurant up to 8:00 pm.

Fortunately, Dio already predicted this. And he didnt bother to ask people to taste it. Besides, he still had Jenny, who would help attract more customers for him. Attracting one customer was a good start. He believed that eventually, his restaurant would gain enough reputation.

Oh, no customer today as well? Its nothing surprising considering youre selling at that price. If you really wanted to become a chef, let me give you advice, try one of those hotels in the city. Our countrys cuisine was trendy in this country even now. I had a nephew who used to be a chef at XX Hotel, I dont mind calling him for you, what do you think?

The first half of the sentence sounded like its a caring neighbor offering help, but what she was after actually lied in the second half of the sentence, she wanted Dio to become her nephews underling.

And Dio wasnt interested at all in becoming a chef at a hotel, why would he start his business here otherwise? so he could avoid getting unnecessary attention

To begin with, could a new chef do whatever he wanted there? Of course not

Most people thought that the United States was the very symbol of freedom and equality, but thats not actually the case, only the wealthy could enjoy those freedom, heck they could do whatever they wanted, deceive others, kill, etc. and they could just manipulate the truth, as long as they had money and power.

If this not Marvel World, just an ordinary world without any superpower, he would rather be returned to China than stayed here.

But right now, his safety came. First, he needed to find a way to survive from Thanos.

So Dio just smiled, shook his head to this kindhearted and caring middle-aged woman and said that his business was doing fine, and he didnt need her help.

Anyway, he only sold his dishes to those who knew its real value. Of course, average people wouldnt be interested in Dios Mysterious Eastern Dish, since its quite expensive, and ordinary people would rather spend it on their other needs.

The Kindhearted middle-aged woman clicked her tongue when Dio refused her offer. She turned back and spit on the door of the restaurant on her way, and she muttered something, Dio couldnt hear her, but its probably nothing good.

Yeah, there are many kinds of people out there, and this one is one of the worst kind, she thought the world revolved around her, so when people didnt listen to her, its their loss!

Who does he think he is? This kind of business is nothing new anyway! After whispering a few words, the kindhearted middle-aged woman returned to her store while swinging around her bucket. Apparently, the neighbors saw what happened, which put Dio in a spotlight for a moment. Everyone around here though that it wont be long before Dio went bankrupt, and theyll lose one competitor.

Sometimes people said a neighbor was the closest relatives you would have, but that didnt seem to be the case here!

Dio didnt really care, and he just went back inside the restaurant and tidy up. Besides the manager, he was also a chef, waiter, janitor and etc. He actually wanted to hire 2 employees at the very least but considering he got an important secret, he couldnt afford to do so.

Hearing the neighbors gossiping about him didnt bother him at all, he saw no point in arguing with them either.

What bothered him was why Will didnt come today. Yesterday, he said that he would come over and help, but even until Dio closed his restaurant, theres no sign of Will coming. He didnt even call. This never happened before.

If its someone else, Dio might not be as upset, but he considered Will as his first friend in this world, and even if he had problems like with gangs and stuff, he wouldnt let that get in the way of his promise with Dio, at the very least hed call him beforehand if something came up.

Dio took out his mobile phone and immediately called Will, he got through, but nobody answered.

He kept calling several times and still no answer. Dio started to worry a bit. The gangs will have a problem sooner or later.

Should I call the police? Dio thought in his head

Dio laughed, its so ridiculous enough that he had thought of that idea.

So after thinking for a while, he finally made up his mind, he was going to find Will, even if it was very likely to put himself in a dangerous situation, or even expose power.

However, he couldnt just sit down doing nothing when his friend was in danger. That is the reason why Dio is a true gentleman.

Only

Whats more, he was not a scaredy-cat he was like a week ago, he had [The World] now!

Dio was full of confidence now that he had [The World], and one-second time stop sounded really pathetic but, one second could be crucial.

And if its just an average gang, he believed, saving Will wouldnt be that hard.

Compared with those superheroes, maybe he still had a lot of shortcomings, but compared to average people, his power was quite inhumane!

If he wanted to do it, he wanted to be thorough. First, Dio put on a casual suit so he wouldnt look suspicious, then he put on a baseball cap and quietly found his way through the night.

Dio once went to Wills gang headquarter because Will insisted. At that time, both of them were still too young. It was a cool thing to join the gang, but after returning home, Dio decided to never come back there again.

As for Will, Dios parents naturally persuaded him, so he left the gang, but everyone has the right to decide their own life. They are not his parents anyway. So Will ended up joining that gang until now
