Chapter 61 Back At It Again
One by one, the spirit leech attached to every cafe's employees disappeared into smoke.
The lifeless looking people returned to normal and looked more energetic.
Seeing that everyone is good now, Nathan heaved a sigh of relief.
Earlier, seeing that his people we're down on the ground, having difficulty breathing made Nathan extremely worried.
Now that the curse is gone from everyone, he can't help but feel that he did something good and felt light for some reason.
He scanned everyone with his eyes, and smiled in satisfaction.
"Good!" He said, "Now that all of you are feeling better, it is time for you all to get to know me!"
Just as he was about to introduce himself, Joseph stepped forward and did it for him.
"He is Mr. Nathaniel Fernandez, the new owner of our cafe, Mountain's Fragrance!" He respectfully said,
Nathan was a little surprised that someone introduced him, but after thinking about it, he just nodded and smiled.
'It is normal for a boss to be treated like this, I guess.' he thought.
After hearing Joseph's introduction, the employees seemed surprised before they started clapping.
*Clap Clap*
Nathan smiled and raised his hand to silence them.
The clapping immediately died down.
Gazing at the eyes of the employees focusing their attention on him, Nathan said, "Everyone it has been a hard week for all of you."
When he said that, the employees couldn't help but nod their head emotionally.
Nathan continued, "That is why, I thought that all of us need some time to relax and enjoy our day. For that reason, I decided that we will all be going to a resort and let everyone have a wonderful time!"
As he said that, his voice was sincere and he had a thick smile on his face.
""Whoa!!""
Everyone was stunned after hearing those words, but after a while their cheers erupted in the cafe and some of the customers outside couldn't help but look in their direction.
After telling everyone to be silent, Nathan told them to work hard and he will plan the trip with Joseph.
With Nathan's signal, all of them went back to work energetically with a big smile on their faces making the atmosphere of the cafe more vibrant.
This trip is something that Nathan thought on the spot after seeing the mentally exhausted look of his people.
He thought that it was just reasonable for them to have a rest after the things they experienced as well for them to be able to work more stably.
When everyone was gone, Nathan and Joseph went back into the office.
As he steps inside the office, Nathan's expression immediately changes.
Sitting on the chair behind the table, he looks at Joseph in front of him with solemn eyes.
"Joseph, I want you to look for the one who did this. I won't take an attack like this without retaliating." Nathan said, full of seriousness in his voice.
Joseph can also feel the seriousness of the situation.
If this is just an accident and it was not intentional to curse the people here, that will still be okay.
But in a chance that this is a planned attack then that would mean someone is targeting the cafe for whatever reason.
So he replied with determination, "I will try my best to find whoever it is that wants to hurt us, sir!"
Seeing that sincerity from Joseph's words, Nathan's expression eased a little.
Next, Nathan talked about the management of the cafe.
"The cafe will still be managed by you as usual. I will be visiting from time to time." Then he took out his phone and said, "Let's also exchange numbers, call me whenever there's something in the cafe or if you found the one who hurt our people."
At the latter part of his words, a hint of coldness came out of his voice.
After saying all that, he stood up and said, "I'll be going now. Notify me when there's something important going on."
Then without hesitation, he left the cafe and rode his car.
On the road, instead of driving home, Nathan went the other way, the direction he is heading is going towards Mt. Tralala!
"Next, it's time to take a look at that ruined city again!" Excitement can't be hidden from Nathan's eyes as he drives.
His exploration of the ruins was cut short earlier because he had the hikers waiting for him.
He can't let them wait for that long or something unexpected might happen.
That is why, he is planning to go to the mountain again and head to that ruined city under the pond!
A lot of things under there has sparked his curiosity and he wants to explore it and understand it's secrets as well as its own history.
It was also the place where Nathan found seeds like the Tree Spirit Seeds and Miracle Tree.
So he is actually expecting to discover more of those unknown and magical stuff.
Several minutes later, Nathan stepped out of his car.
Looking at the mountain in front of him, he smiled and said, "I'm back!"
Without further ado, Nathan started following the path they took earlier and easily arrived at the resting spot.
"Where was it again?" He scanned his surroundings to see in what direction he left earlier, "There, I remember leaving the camp from that direction."
Without stopping, Nathan walked carefully on the mountain.
Finally, after several minutes of following his tracks, Nathan arrived at the pond.
The scenery here is still the same as when he first saw it, enchantingly attractive.
But Nathan only took a glance at the view before all his attention turned into the pond in front.
He smiled gleefully, "I am finally here." He glanced up at the sky and saw that it was already afternoon, "I should hurry up so I can still come back home before dinner."
So without wasting any more time, he took off all his clothes and stored them in his space before he jumped into the water.
The cold sensation of the water feels comfortable in this hot afternoon.
Because of that, Nathan let out a sigh of comfort, "Sigh… Maybe I should make a trip to the beach for everyone at the cafe."
