Chapter 794: Chapter 794 – Sing a Song, Ambush from Ten Sides
Chapter 794: Sing a Song, Ambush from Ten Sides
The restaurant instantly became much quieter . A lot of people began discussing quietly among themselves while countless gazes were gathered on the stranger who was being served by a waiter at the hall in the first floor .
Everyone tried to guess his identity, and they also tried to guess just what sort of information he wanted to learn from the waiter .
The stranger did not disappoint them . He spoke!
But the first question that the person asked made them nearly plant their faces against the table .
“Do you have singers in the restaurant?”
“Yes, of course . Sir, do you want a singer to relieve you of your boredom?” An understanding and subtle smile appeared on the waiter’s face . He quickly said, “We don’t have singers in the restaurant, but there are a few local girls who are rather pretty nearby, and they sing beautifully as well . But if you want to ask them over, you might need to pay quite the fee . ”
Silence fell among the eavesdroppers .
Countless sounds of people spitting out wine and coughing could be heard in the restaurant . Those sounds rose and fell, and among them were a few barks of laughter .
“Singer? Was there a need for that person to be so mysterious?”
“Haha! What a joke!”
Happy ignored the sound waves that suddenly rose around him, causing the area to become lively . He just took a sip of his wine . “We have to enjoy our lives while we live, and we shouldn’t drink alone . I’m alone right now, and I have to face a group of boring people . Go and get me a beautiful girl who can sing well . I’ll be able to pay you and her . ”
He said these words boldly, and he also spent his money readily . Happy swung his arm, and a gold note landed in the waiter’s hand .
The waiter’s eyes immediately sparkled . “Ah! Sir, just you wait, I’ll make arrangements for you . ”
The people who had been laughing and mocking Happy in the restaurant fell silent . They stared at the gold note the waiter clutched tightly in his hands, and they were finally unable to help themselves but look astounded .
There were plenty of universal currencies in World of Martial Arts .

Silver, silver notes, gold, gold ingots, and gold notes!
There was no need to even talk about how much silver was worth at this point .
Silver notes were at least worth one thousand taels of silver, and those that were worth the highest were worth ten million taels of silver per piece .
One tael of gold was worth ten taels of silver .
One gold ingot was worth ten thousand taels of silver .
But one gold note was worth at least one thousand taels of gold, and it was worth the same as one gold ingot, but no one will keep a gold note on their person, even one that was worth the least .
Hiring a singer and drinking while she sang was not something rare in the game, but spending such a high amount of money over here was practically the same as spending money in the most expensive places in Beijing .
Hence, many people stopped talking . When they stared at the stranger, their eyes were now curious, but they still exercised restraint . They also no longer dared to judge a book by its cover .
The efficiency in the game was very high .
The waiter soon brought a girl with a pipa up the stairs .
When the girl reached Happy, she greeted him with a curtsy before she quietly sat across Happy, and elegant music rose in the restaurant .
But Happy did not ask the girl to drink with him, which was what the people expected him to do . He just quietly ate a few side dishes and peanuts that did not cost much, and no one could figure him out .
It had started off with a bang, but ended with just a peep, and the people were baffled by this .
“That guy’s really weird . ”
“But he’s quite interesting, no?”
This scene had long since attracted Teacher’s attention . What especially caught his attention was that the stranger who spent such a large amount of money did not say anything to the girl . He just ate and drank aloofly, creating such an atmosphere that he looked like he was in his own world . The group of people in the restaurant began to talk among themselves .
“Forget it . Ignore him . He might be someone who had his heart broken, and he’s here to drink until he’s drunk . ”
They watched for a while, but the stranger did not do anything else . Quite a number of people lost interest . They gradually drew their curtains and went on with their own business .

The five tables near the windows originally wanted to draw the curtains .
But after a while, they saw, through the curtains, the person say something to the singer . Then, immediately, the atmosphere in the restaurant became strange .
The clanging sounds of the pipa were filled with a murderous presence while it echoed in the restaurant .
Teacher, the group of Dragon Sect elites, and every person in the restaurant felt as if someone had tugged at their heartstrings . They turned their gazes to the stranger’s table .
Ambush from Ten Sides! [1]
A person drinking in boredom had actually asked a singer play this song for him .
*****
Quite a number of people had come to the restaurant with the goal of relaxing . When they heard such a domineering and aggressive song that made their hearts surge, many of them rose protests .
“What stupid song is that? Can’t she play something relaxing and elegant?”
“That’s right!”
“What a mood killer!”
“Hey, can you not spoil our mood? Have the girl play us Beyond [2] or something . ”
The singer will naturally ignore the suggestions and protests around her .
Whosoever paid her was her boss .
She still understood the consumer rules around this place!
Happy slowly and casually lifted his wine cup to those people and said something indifferently .
“I was the one who paid her to sing and play, that’s my own business . It has nothing to do with you . If you want another piece, hire a singer yourself . ”
“You…”
Many people felt very gloomy because Happy’s words angered them .
They wanted to take action, but when they thought about the order that restrained violence that was recently announced in Yangzhou, they could only hold back their anger in their hearts .
After listening for a while, a group of people went down the stairs .
“Damn it!”
“You better hope that I won’t run into you outside . ”
“If you have the guts, go out of town . If I don’t crush your bones, I’ll worship you!”
Some of those who had their mood ruined did not forget to say some insincere remarks before they left .
“That person is indeed very annoying . ”
“Should we say something?”
A group of young Dragon Sect elites in the private inevitably flew into a rage . They stared at the person who had freely made the girl play such a tense and aggressive song, and killing intent shone in their eyes .
They already died a few times in the Chinese plains, and right now, Happy had come to Beijing . Class One Hall had mobilized their members in an emergency measure, and the atmosphere around the north was solemn . Their mood was already very bad, and right now, that Ambush from Ten Sides was basically adding fuel to fire . It was already very impressive that they could endure the song until this point .
“Don’t go making yourself miserable . There’s no need to bother about this sort of person . ” Teacher might also feel a little troubled by this, but he also knew that this was not the time to show up .
“Oh, forget it . Let’s pay the bill and train . ” While he spoke, he stood up from his seat and was prepared to go down the stairs .
“But…”
Some people looked hesitant . “Didn’t they say that Happy is already in Beijing, and that we’re to be careful?”
“It’s fine . There’s someone watching Happy in Beijing . Even if he knows that we’re here, someone will tell us beforehand, and we’ll log off,” Teacher answered calmly, drew the curtains, and walked out of the private room .
He cast a glance at the man who tapped a rhythm according to the song while he took sips from his wine cup, and Teacher instantly lost his mood to enjoy any food and drink in the restaurant . He quickened his footsteps and left this place which made him feel displeased .
Dragon Sect’s elites walked out of the five private rooms in single file . When they left the place, they glared at Happy with hostile gazes before they went downstairs .
To prevent exposing himself, Happy lowered his head while he tapped the rhythm . He did not even meet the Dragon Sect members’ gazes, causing their hatred to fall through .
When the last person went down the stairs, the first floor became empty sans Happy and the girl who played the pipa diligently .
Some time passed, and Happy brought out another handful of gold from his Universe Bag . Without another word, he got up and went down the stairs .

Out of Foxes to Give
When you’re reincarnated as Naruto Uzumaki you do one of two things: cheer because you remember the story and are able to abuse your future knowledge, or realize that you’re in a world where they train child soldiers who throw fireballs and explosions around like candy and reasonably freak out. In a sense you’re either screwed or screwed but you know why. I didn’t really read Naruto when I was a kid. However, had I known that it would be useful in death, I would have! And I’m certainly regretting it now! ———————————— A definite AU for Naruto. I’m going to remove some parts and add some others for the sake of plot holes(so if something doesn't seem quite right it's probably intended... maybe), but I’ll try to stick to as close to how the Naruto-verse works. Also, say goodbye to canon! Also, disclaimer, I do not own Naruto as that belongs solely to Kishimoto. I do, however, own this story.
