Chapter 53 CHAPTER 53: UNEXPECTED DEVELOPMENT



"Hello Mr. La-" the voice began, but was immediately interrupted by Davies,

"Do you know a shop called The Rising Sun?" Davies asked.

"The Rising Sun?"

"I\'ll have to check," the voice came back and then they heard different sounds coming from the other sides of the phone.

Lee Jung and the onlookers still didn\'t know where this was going and they were a bit confused, but they waited to see what Davies was trying to do.

"Oh, I found it,"

"It\'s a small restaurant somewhere on third avenue, just behind wall Rose and not too far away from wall Maria," the man seemed to be reading out the information from somewhere.

"Oh, you found it?"

"Good… now I want you to buy it, or buy the land it\'s standing on…"

"Right now,"

"I\'ll be expecting the results soon," he said in a laid-back tone and hung up the call immediately.

"Pfffffff, hahahaha," Lee Jung burst into laughter, and he was not the only one. Everywhere around the restaurant, different people began to laugh at Davies\'s attempt to show off… or so they thought.

"What a braggart, and he\'s so handsome," a young woman in a business suit managed to say between laughs.

"So what, that just makes him a handsome braggart," the man sitting at the table with her said as he also laughed at Davies.

"I know that you have a bit of money, but thinking you can do anything you want just because of that, haha,"

"hahahaha, when did buying land in the business district of Yorkshire city become so easy," Lee Jung continued to throw jabs at Davies as he laughed at him.

To be honest, they were right.

Buying land in a world where most places had become too dangerous to be used or inhabited was already difficult enough, not to mention a prime location somewhere near the middle of a well-protected human settlement and smack dab in the middle of the business district with its many advantages of better protection, higher human traffic and all.

Buying land here was almost an impossibility for even well-established businesses, not to mention a single individual.

Lee Jung would have not been laughing if he actually had any information about Davies. All he knew was that he belonged to the Lake family and was somehow affiliated with Imperium Technologies.

This was one of the annoying things about fated protagonists, they never bothered to get any meaningful information about anything that could become a threat, this could be seen by how Lee Jung didn\'t even know that Davies was the founder of Imperium Technologies, where he used to work.

All he knew was that Davies had said that he was fired after his car got blown to bits and when he had gone into the company to complain, the order was emphasized by Arnold Hugo, the acting CEO of Imperium technologies and he was fired.

Fated protagonists were the type of people that dealt with every problem that appeared before them with either their fists or their contacts, and never their brains.

Lee Jung was also like them in that aspect, but how was he to expect that Davies had the bigger fist, more and even better contacts, and a working brain that thought up solutions all day long, to both his current problems and even the problems that were yet to arise.

Inside the restaurant, only three people were not laughing at Davies.

The first person was Davies himself and all he did was smile gently as he watched and waited.

The second person was Jessica, she did not laugh because she knew how capable he was and that something like this should be possible for him… but even she didn\'t know the full capacity of the name "Davies Lake."

The third person that wasn\'t laughing was the brown-haired teenage attendant that had just come from the kitchen bringing Davies\'s order. She wondered why everyone was laughing, of course, but it was not her place to ask, anyway it seemed like the people were enjoying their time in the restaurant.

Davies the recipient of the mocking laughter grabbed the cup of coffee and took a sip of the coffee,

"It\'s surprisingly good… it\'ll be really sad to close this place down," Davies sighed after tasting the coffee, which was actually quite good.

"You\'re still bragging, why don\'t you give up on this act of yo-"

*BANG* Lee Jung had not managed to complete the sentence when a door that led to the staff\'s area flew open and a man that looked to be in his sixties, still wearing chef whites\', rushed out trying to leave the restaurant while also continuously dialing numbers on his phone.

The man\'s sudden distressed appearance startled many people. For the regulars and old customers of the restaurant, they knew that despite his current distressed and roughed-up appearance, he was the owner of this restaurant and he had been running it successfully for over thirty years.

"Boss!?"

"What\'s wrong?" the brown-haired attendant that had just delivered Davies\'s order quickly rushed toward her employer.

The old man had stopped after the brown-haired girl stood before him and asked what was going on,

"Something big just happened,"

"Someone bought this place!" the man said with hurried breaths as he panted slightly from overexerting himself by hurrying around.

"Someone bought the shop?" the brown-haired attendant asked as she couldn\'t completely understand the man\'s statement.

"No not the shop, it\'s not for sale…"

"... he- he bought this land, the land where the shop is standing on,"

"Someone by the name of Davies Lake,"

Everyone listened with unabated breaths as they listened as if they couldn\'t believe their ears.

"I have to call him to ask permission to continue being able to use this place…" the man continued speaking, but nobody but the attendant was still listening to him right now as their eyes turned over toward the white-haired man drinking his coffee.

*Siipp*

The sound of Davies drinking his coffee seemed to have been enhanced as everyone could suddenly hear it loud and clear as if he stood right beside them.

After a few seconds, Davies put down the coffee cup on the table and looked up at Lee Jung who was looking at him with a bewildered look on his face,

"Well, now I own the shop, so I\'ll say it again,"

"... shoo,"

"Or I\'ll make you… unfortunately, this place doesn\'t have security, so I would have to do it myself," he said calmly, but his unfriendly tone and aura made it clear that he wanted Lee Jung gone from his sight, even if he had to do it himself.

Luckily, Lee Jung was not stupid enough to believe that he could defeat a Mega like Davies in battle right now as while it was true that he had a system now that was helping him, there was little he could do against people like Davies who could kill him without even looking at him, so he got up begrudgingly and left the restaurant, moved into the car park and got into a Cesla sports car and drove away quickly.

Suddenly a ding sounded inside of Davies\'s head and his system showed up in front of his eyes without him willing it to appear, and on it was written,

[Successfully face-slapped a fated one and caused him to lose 20 fate points]

\'Hmmm?\'

\'Interesting…\' he thought as he wondered about this new development, but then his phone rang, bringing him out of his thoughts.

"Hello," Davies answered the call.

"We have completed the purchase procedures of the land,"

"What are your plans for the place, sir?" the voice from the other end asked.

"Hmmmm… for now, I don\'t really have any plans for the land," Davies replied.

"What about the restaurant, The Rising Sun that is currently occupying the land?" the voice asked again.

"Oh, the restaurant?" he repeated, then a wicked grin appeared on his face as he answered,

"… Burn it down."
