《Luck is a Charm》Lily's Mirage
Advertisement
The restaurant that Kuro dragged Zhen into is called Lily's Mirage and Zhen found out the owner is a mature woman.
The restaurant is a hotspot for the locals and the aroma of the food you smell is top quality.
Afterward, a kind hostess guided Zhen and Kuro to a table and showed them the menu.
Zhen's eyes popped out from the prices in the dishes. He told the waitress that he would call her when he decided on what to get as it's his first time.
In reality, Zhen was sweating like crazy as he thought 100 gold makes him a wealthy person already but, in this menu, no dish is below 5 gold.
“Ahaha, this spiritual meat is worth the price.”
“Exactly, I can never get enough of these delicacies.”
“Of course, if I’m rich, you would see me eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner here every single day haha.”
Hearing the gossip from the customers, they spoke of how worth the dishes are as they're all spiritual meats.
Spiritual food is different from ordinary food as they contain a spark of mana that improves cultivation.
It's similar to eating an alchemy pill but spiritual food. As not only does spiritual food have a delicious taste, it also got a similar effect as an alchemy pill.
‘I've been done in by Kuro again as he's been looking at me with sparkly eyes.’
Zhen wants to cry about how Kuro manages to pick the most expensive restaurant possible to loot his money.
The aroma is too strong, so knowing his money is out of luck. Zhen called the waitress and told her to bring the top 3 popular dishes here.
‘Just those 3 dishes have amounted to 25 gold as the tea is used with spiritual leaves to brew. This Lily is a businesswoman as a single table can earn more gold than an average worker. WAIT A MINUTE!’
Zhen was about to sulk when he figured out something.
‘Lily is this smart, plus for a restaurant to bloom this well, her beauty should not be any less than Sara. I'm going to be honest, a mature woman attracts me as they are smart to understand you.’
Zhen decided to go after Lily if he ever gets the chance to meet her. He continued to daydream as he compares mature women and Sara.
Sara may be beautiful but she has a naive personality that would make you worry. A mature woman, however, has a mature aura and is shrewd enough to handle any situation.
Kuro stares at Zhen who is drooling and believes that his Master just couldn’t wait for the food to be served.

However, Kuro could not be any more wrong as Zhen is thinking about something different.
‘I'm already planning to have a harem and if you find it unacceptable, then you can only blame your incapability to have one. Sure, a man should be true to one woman but who says a man cannot have multiple women yet still love them all the same.’
Zhen was busy justifying his action in creating a harem and enjoying his second life to the fullest.
Although Zhen is being lustful, he is not a womanizer because if he were one, then he would have gotten a lot of girlfriend on Earth but he got none.
It is not that he couldn't get one, it is just that Zhen doesn't feel any emotion or attraction near them.
Suffering throughout his days of struggling to get by, there is simply no energy for Zhen to think of romance.
He only started to change when he came to this new world as he is finally free and won't have to worry anymore.
He got power despite not knowing how powerful exactly, Zhen believed it should be enough for him to protect his woman.
If he doesn't provoke anyone, no one would be dumb enough to fight him after his spectacular fight on Situ Sheng. (Refer to chapter 7)
Zhen might have acted on emotion but what you don't know is that he purposely showed his prowess to the crowd.
Not only can Zhen vent his emotion, but it is also his way of warning those who have malicious intent on him or those close to him.
Even though he successfully entered the town, Kuro is huge enough to attract those who want to obtain him as only the kingdoms have multiple rank 5 magical beasts and above.
Greed is implemented in every human's blood, it only depends on what type of greed you are. There are people who greed for lust, power, money, etc. No one can escape from a type of greed.
Zhen has already used Sense and to not make the people with malicious intent on noticing him.
Therefore, Zhen has been teasing Sara with no change of his attitude of being a lustful man.
They have probably been sending someone to track Zhen down and try to find out his background ever since the commotion of his entry to the town.
Some customers in the Grotto's Inn were spies for these people as Zhen noticed them sneaking a peek on him for a split second.
If it were just a slight peek of curiosity, Zhen can tell they are not a true customer because they didn’t blend in like the rest of the customers.

‘They really think I'm a brainless fool like Situ Sheng who only knows how to flirt and doesn't know what's going on. I already gave them a chance to rethink their actions when I show my prowess a bit.’
Zhen decided to see the situation as he continues to daze around the town.
‘If they still have nefarious intentions in acting, then I gladly send them to meet the underworld. Those who don't offend me, I won't offend, those who offend me, I shall face slap them hard.’
Situ Sheng is the face slapping example and he would have died if Sara didn't come to stop Zhen.
‘If this brainless fool still thinks of getting revenge.’
Actually, never mind about the fool because he already thought about getting revenge. How did Zhen know that?
Let’s explain the whole scenario of the fight and aftermath so you don't feel confused.
At that time, despite my rage emotion, I was actually rational the entire time because if I was really a hot-headed and dumb person. Then tell me how I was able to get revenge on my parents.
I have only briefly explained how they discard me but there are more dark and hidden tales that have yet to be revealed. It was better to simplify the story and I no longer care about my past on Earth.
Back to the point, I used a fireball in Situ Sheng thinking to kill him in one stroke. However, he survived that attack because he had a protective armor of rank 4.
Based on that rare armor, his father should be worrying about his safety.
Even though Situ Sheng is overbearing, he can still walk in broad daylight could only mean his father is tolerant towards him but always prevents his action from going overboard.
Just based on the fact how he failed to sully innocent women is known to everyone. That's why with his mage's rank being rank 3, people still avoided him like a plague even though rank 3 is an impressive feat.
If he were a decent person, then just based on his mage rank and a little handsome should have multiple families asking for marriage. Too bad, he's a brainless fool and is meant to be doom.
There is no cliché on how a powerful mage or immortal suddenly dies and reincarnates in his body. It only happens in the dream and you want this kind of miracle.
At least, you should have my god-tier luck then maybe you may have a teeny tiny chance.
Anyway, I'm going off track again so..... ah, Sara stops me from going overboard. For this woman, I'm willing to let him go but it'll be dumb of me to not add some security.
Therefore, while I continue to French kiss Sara, I secretly inject some of my pure mana onto Situ Sheng. This is the reason why he fainted again and maybe our action is an additional part of it.
With that pure mana, I can see whatever he sees and knows his mind without being detected. Don't ask me why I know it can't be detected. I just have that weird feeling that my mana is unique compared to others.
That Situ Sheng probably didn't know when he was being scolded by his father, I saw his every thought. You were spared once and I would have let you live your pathetic life if you repent.
Sigh, brainless fool villain never learns, I thought there might be a miracle where he will change to become a better man but all novels are like that.
Situ Sheng’s fate is already set and now, you’ve caught up with everything on what happened in that short fight scene.
Zhen may not know how this world works but he was wise enough to not go past his limit.
Zhen may be a weak being back on Earth who could only rely on his brain, but this second life changes everything.
The Zhen now is a mage with a magical beast and is currently chasing after Sara in this new world.
Although he could also be chasing after Lily that he hasn't met yet.
Explaining all this stuff when the food was served a long time ago. Zhen tried to pick a piece of spiritual meat and found out that Kuro is an ungrateful being.
He ate all of the food without leaving any piece of meat for Zhen.
Kuro smirked and sent a transmission to Zhen, "The money you obtained is from the Likra that I HUNTED. I simply took my gains and you ate my portion today so we're even now."
Gritting his teeth, Zhen ordered the waitress for the check and paid for it.
‘It's time to meet up with Sara now and I will be releasing this anger to have more advantage on her.’
Zhen said inwardly while looking forward to what advantage he could take.
‘Sara likes my touching otherwise I'll be beaten like how I beat Situ Sheng. So, I'm not a pervert or a lecherous man that forces himself on a woman. I have my bottom-line too.’
Nodding his head in the explanation he came up with in justifying his action is legal, Zhen smiles brightly.
