Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva

Chapter 50: 26 Cinderella in the Jungle (thanks to the Alliance Hierarch 'Someone Reported Me but I Won't Tell Who')



It's raining again.

Walking to work, Hexia could hear the sound of water flowing through the pipes in the aisle of the residential area; whenever it rained on the surface, there would be sounds of drainage in the pipes of the Underground City.

Even without seeing the surface conditions, she would know when it rained.

The rainy season of April to May, due to the corrosive nature and toxicity of the rain, was not suitable for going out, so most residents of the Northern Hemisphere would live in the safe zones. However, in the Southern Hemisphere, the weather was pleasant at this time, leading some people to choose to travel far. Right now, many in Hexia's class group were discussing this.

'It's such a precious graduation vacation, it would be a waste to stay at home.'

'I haven't really gone out to play during my three years of junior high. This time, I must ask my mom for money to travel.'

'Is anyone making a group to go together?'

'That does sound quite good.'

'I've heard that Grand Bay Bay in South Third District is amazing. The waters there are clear, and it has comfortable beaches, and the sunlight isn't too harsh...'

'You're posting way too much information. It's hard not to think it's advertising.'

'Go for it, it's really nice~'

'So, if anyone wants to go, sign up, and I'll calculate and arrange it later.'

'Okay, Jones.'

...

Turning off the messages in the group, Hexia walked out of the elevator with her personal terminal in hand, thinking about the work for the day.

Traveling might be nice, but she'd rather save up some money first. Besides, the vacation was still long; school probably wouldn't start until August or September, so there were more than four months left.

'Good morning, Dantalion~' No sooner had she entered the store than other maids greeted Hexia. Having spent the past few days together, everyone had gradually gotten to know this new colleague.

'Good morning, senior~' Indeed, a senior—Hexia was nearly the youngest among them, and the only reason it was 'nearly' was that 'Deklabi,' the golden-haired Angel, was indeed tinier in every aspect than Hexia.

After changing into her maid uniform in the dressing room, Hexia sat in front of the mirror and quickly fixed her hair.

She could now change her black hair to gray at will, but she usually kept it gray when going out, just because doing so would save her a lot of trouble.

Her black hair made her nearly identical to her sister, and considering her sister's popularity back in school, Hexia knew full well that such an appearance would draw too much attention.

However, girls like Hexia, who would rather conceal their looks for the sake of tranquility, were truly rare. Most girls preferred to be more attractive, whether to showcase themselves or to attract others. Being admired in that way was as sweet as honey for many people.

But compared to her sister, the two of them had distinctly different temperaments. Temisia possessed a kind of extraordinary enchanting beauty, while Hexia was gentler, like an orchid in a secluded valley. Even if one got used to her looks, there were moments in life when one would be astounded by her stunning blue charm.

'Here, wear this.'

Just as Hexia was looking at the accessories in the drawer, wondering if she should wear something today, a familiar voice rang out, and then a headband was placed on her head.

'Vurowus sister.' She softly called out the other's name.

'Mhm, this headband suits you too.' She helped adjust it for Hexia and then nodded.

The headband on the girl's head, unlike the standard issue of the store, had a silver edged openwork flower decoration, and then 'Vurowus' fixed a silver buttercup flower on the headband.

'Let's see, what else is missing.' 'Vurowus' looked at Hexia in the mirror, then picked up a silver choker, fastened it around Hexia's neck, and tied it into a bow.

'That should do it.' Today's outfit made Hexia and 'Vurowus' look like sisters, both embellished with silver floral decorations on top of their maid uniforms.

'Are you coming to help out at my place today?'

'This...' Hexia didn't dislike the idea, but she had been at 'Huale's the past few days. It didn't feel right to suddenly not go today.

'I've spoken with 'Huale,' we're borrowing you for today.' 'Vurowus' addressed the hesitation in Hexia's heart.

'Alright then.'

Afterward, the two of them went downstairs together and started their work for the first half of the day.

Similar to making beverages with 'Huale,' 'Vurowus' mainly prepared complete meals. Their bars were actually quite close, and customers often ordered together, which meant the two frequently interacted and had a good relationship.

'Dream of Glazed Glass' had several areas for food services, including sections for cakes, pastries, snacks, and the like, as well as portions akin to full meals, plus some unique treats. Not all meal sets had transcendent effects; some T6-T5 level sets were directly prepared by the chefs on the 38th floor and then sent to 'Dream of Glazed Glass' on the 37th floor by robots.

In the morning, there weren't many requests for full meals at 'Dream of Glazed Glass,' the main task was preparing and processing some ingredients so they could be used directly for lunch and dinner. The two chatted while working behind the counter.

'Do you usually live alone, Dantalion?' 'Vurowus' inquired.

'Yes, I normally live alone. But recently, a neighborly old lady has been taking care of me, offering me to move in with her. That way, meals and living would be much more convenient.' Hexia removed the outer leaves of a fresh snake saliva bamboo shoot, peeled the tender part inside, and placed it in clean water. The shoot was poisonous, but after removing the toxicity, it became a favorite for its excellent taste among certain customers.
