Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"All...all at once?" the waiter stuttered, his voice changing. "Sir, are you kidding? These must be at least dozens of dishes! Can you all...finish them all?"

Rex picked up the teacup and blew away the foam gently, his movements graceful and calm: "It's okay, just go ahead." His tone was flat, but it carried an unquestionable meaning.

The waiter scratched his head. "Um, sir, let me be clear, we don't allow wasting food in our store. And these things are not cheap, I think..."

"Is that so..." Rex lowered his head and thought carefully for a moment, "Don't worry, you can pack up if you can't finish it. If you are worried about the money, do you think this is enough?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a large bulging bag of money from somewhere, and it was full of raw stones.

"I left in a hurry a few days ago and didn't have time to exchange it into local currency. Here are 3 raw stones, which should be enough to pay." Keos placed the heavy purse on the table, making a dull sound.

The waiter's eyes widened instantly, his Adam's apple rolling as he stared at the bag of raw stones. Rough stones were the hard currency of Teyvat, their value far exceeding that of ordinary currency. With this large bag of raw stones, not only could they handle a full order, they could easily buy the entire restaurant.

"Enough! Absolutely enough! Absolutely enough!" The waiter's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. His face was covered with an almost fawning smile, and his waist was bent. "Sir, you are so generous! Please wait a moment! The food will be here soon! I guarantee the fastest speed and the best craftsmanship!"

"Tsk, this is the local rich man, I've really opened my eyes today."

He turned around and thought this to himself.

After the waiter left, an eerie silence fell on the table.

Especially Mo Yan, he stared at the pile of raw stones that the waiter was furiously throwing away, which was such a waste of resources.

You know, in the game, raw stones are a rare currency, but now, in Rex's hands, they are just like ordinary pebbles, being casually taken out to pay bills. This huge contrast made Mo Yan feel a little dazed for a moment, as if the rules of two worlds had collided in a strange way.

Kailin's eyes widened as she murmured, "Oh my God... 30,000 original stones... How many shots can I draw with that..."

"Just be patient. Even if you have so many stones, you can't do anything except pay the bills." Zi Xuan sighed with pity.

And if you think about it carefully, this is not the first time they have seen people pay with raw stones. Before in Sangang Bay, before it was converted into currency, Tianlang paid with raw stones. If you think about it carefully, it is really... comparison makes people feel depressed!

Kailin silently swallowed the second half of the sentence and looked at Rex's nonchalant expression, she could only be secretly shocked.

"By the way, Rick..." She came back to her senses and was about to ask, but the next second Rickaos put his finger to his lips again.

"Shh, it's better not to call me by my name here," he said gracefully.

"Ah, what should we call you then?"

He didn't answer, but Tianlang smiled helplessly: "Then Brother Yongshenying, why are you here?"

"I was out on business and just happened to be passing by. Judging from your appearance, you should have already obtained his 'certificate', right?"

"Yes, I've got it." Tianlang nodded, his tone carrying a barely perceptible solemnity.

Although Rexor didn't explicitly say who "he" was, everyone present knew he was referring to Rednos. After all, the relationship between the two was difficult to describe.

He nodded slightly, his eyes sweeping over Mo Yan and the others, his gaze lingering on Mo Yan for a moment, as if he had noticed something, but did not point it out.

"So we came this time..." Kailin was about to speak, but was interrupted by him again.

"Of course I know where you come from, but before that, it's better not to talk about such heavy topics." After he finished speaking, he looked up in the direction of the stairs.

At this time, the waiter was walking over briskly with several freshly baked dishes, his face full of a warm smile.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting! There are a few dishes ready on the stove. Let me fill your stomachs first!" He deftly placed several dishes on the table: a plate of shiny and fragrant roast chicken, a plate of rich-colored braised duck, a bowl of steaming hot steamed pork with eight treasures, and a basket of freshly steamed dumplings with thin skin and large fillings.

The rich aroma of the food spread instantly, making people's mouths water.

Rex picked up the chopsticks and gestured gracefully, "Please, don't be so polite."

Kailin, already starving, immediately responded to the call and stuffed a siomai into her mouth. It was so hot that she couldn't help but inhale and couldn't bear to spit it out. She mumbled in praise, "Mmm! So good!"

Seeing this, everyone picked up their chopsticks and started to eat with relish.

Dishes followed one after another, and the empty plates on the table piled up at an alarming rate, but this "result" did not come from Mo Yan, Kailin and others.

Although they were hungry, they ate in a normal manner, taking a few bites of each dish and chewing it slowly. Plus, there were so many dishes that they were full before everything was served.

The real main force is Rex.

Rex's dining posture remained elegant, his movements unhurried, but his chopsticks seemed to possess magical powers, precise and efficient, with astonishing speed. On the surface, it looked ordinary, but in reality, it devoured everything in a flash.

Kailin was stunned and whispered to Mo Yan, "I finally understand why he ordered so many dishes..."

Then she looked at Tianlang again: "Is your colleague...always like this?"

Hearing this, Tianlang just smiled helplessly and did not reply.

When all the dishes were served, the waiter returned to the stairs to watch and began to mutter, "Is this... really the amount a human should eat?"

"Why do you care so much? Just pay enough." The shop owner said in a lazy voice standing behind him.

"That's what I say, but..."

"Alright, less talk and more action." The shop owner patted the waiter's shoulder, signaling him to mind his own business. "Customers have paid, so it's their freedom to eat as much as they want. Go, see if there's anything else you can help with in the kitchen."

The waiter scratched his head. Although he was full of doubts, he still turned around and went downstairs obediently.

In the corner of the second floor, the "battle" on the table was nearing its end. Rex gracefully put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a napkin. The pile of empty plates before him formed a stark contrast to his unwavering composure.

"Well, it's really good." He commented lightly, as if he was not the one who swept away everything just now.

Mo Yan and others had already put down their chopsticks and were speechless at the sight of this astonishing scene.

"Um...so, are you satisfied?" Karin asked carefully.

Rex closed his eyes and nodded: "Well, five minutes full."

"Five-five points full?!" Kailin's voice suddenly rose, and she almost jumped out of her chair. She looked at the empty plates piled up on the table, almost forming a small mountain, then at Rex's still flat stomach and calm expression, and felt her worldview shaken.

Previously in the abyss, Clara's appetite had already amazed them, but now it seemed like a small thing compared to her.
