"Young man, you've run out of Resurrection Coins~"
On the battlefield, Belfeng held a golden hamr in one hand, looking down at her opponent who had been struck to the ground.
The young man with a duckbill cap covered his slightly hurting arm, moving his hands and feet before slowly standing up.
"I admit defeat." As soon as the words left his mouth, the realistic-looking scenery within the arena dissipated, and the weapons in both their hands lost their luster, with the energy-ford blades and hamr heads vanishing into nothingness, leaving only the handles.
"Ah Kai is still one step behind. In the process of clashing blades with Bebe, he started off stable, but as the number of exchanges increased, gaps began to appear."
"He's probably not proficient yet. He has only been practicing with a broadsword for half a year; he's quite the little prodigy at this rate."
"Ah, I wanted to see the bunny get beaten, really wanted to see the bunny crying 'yiyi' after getting hit."
"You pervert, better stay away from ."
...
Amid various discussions, Belfeng gathered her belongings and then walked over to Hexia.
"I've finished today's tasks. If you all want to continue playing, find soone to battle with yourselves, I'm going to rest~"
"Bunny is still so casual about it (lazy); she doesn't even want to earn a bit more money."
"That's why they say she's 'slothful'."
Many custors in the arena had grown accustod to this and, after getting their fill of the excitent, each sat down to start their own gas, with so groups even sitting together to start a role-playing ga.
A sand table that seed real appeared on the tabletop, along with various castles and creatures that erged from it. The characters fashioned by the players descended into it, embarking on various amazing battles and adventures.
"How about it, is it fun?" Belfeng pulled Hexia along to sit down in a corner facing away from the crowd.
"Senior Belfeng is very impressive."
Hexia genuinely admired her; this bunny-eared girl was not only lively, skilled in handling different types of custors but also maintained a high standard in nurous gas, sports, and battles, sothing not just anyone could achieve.
In this day and age, to be a gaming expert was even harder than becoming a top professional in so fields. Because the industry is so specialized, so high-level professions might not be that competitive, but gaming was different. Because it's open to everyone, with a vast base, nurous geniuses erge, and standing out among thousands is no easy feat.
"Ahaha, although they're all complints, coming from 'Dantalion,' they feel especially pleasant." The black bunny ears on her head gently wiggled, seemingly reflecting her exceptionally good mood.
Looking at those movable ears, Hexia couldn't help her curiosity any longer.
"Senior Belfeng, are those bunny ears on your head real?"
"They are real, yeah." The other person tilted her head.
"But, I saw the edge of a headband and thought they might be artificial."
"Oh this, indeed there's a headband, to keep uniform with everyone else in the shop." She wagged her ears again.
"There are not many from the Orc Race in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain, so it's quite normal to be mistaken for a human in disguise."
After exchanging a few more words, Belfeng asked, "How do you feel about today? You've pretty much made a round of the shop, so you must have a pretty good understanding by now, right?"
"Yes, I've t quite a few people and have really broadened my horizons." Hexia felt that she had encountered more today than in the entire past year.
"You'll get used to it after a while."
Belfeng comforted her. In fact, she didn't use to take care of people like this, but Hexia did look really pitiable. After all, a girl like Hexia, who was obedient, well-behaved, pretty, and cute was indeed extrely rare.
Today's girls either ss around seeking thrills or are imrsed in competitive consumption and manipulative intrigues. Although Belfeng was a girl herself, often she didn't want to hang out with other girls of her age; it was too exhausting. She preferred to play gas with the guys for relaxation.
After chatting about the shop situation, although Hexia had a preliminary understanding of her colleagues' work, she still felt worried about what she should do.
"It seems everyone has their own way and style, but I'm not sure what I should do."
"Ah, very clever, 'Dantalion,' to have realized this so early on."
"As for your style, actually, I've already figured it out," Belfeng patted her chest confidently.
"It would be too much to ask you to chat about life with custors at your age. You don't need to learn the style of 'Andusia' sister. Just be yourself, and do whatever makes you comfortable at work."
"Of course, you will need so ti to adapt and explore in the beginning."
"Tomorrow I'll take you to et the rest of our companions. The first week is mainly about getting familiar with everything."
"Thank you, Sister Belfeng." Although the other person didn't look much older than herself, Hexia was still very grateful.
For soone as introverted and a bit timid as her, a person as generous, outgoing, and warmhearted as Belfeng was as dazzling as the sun in winter.
"Mhm, I'll look out for you from now on, 'Dantalion'~"
Ti flew by without notice, and soon it was ti to clock out.
At dusk, the artificial sky on the ceiling also displayed the fading glow of the sunset, staining the entire floor's glass crystal with a layer of faint gold, exceptionally beautiful.
"It's past five o'clock," Belfeng said, sitting at a bar counter with Hexia, where a similarly dressed maid wore a uniform adorned with silvery silk flowers around the collar and cuffs, adding her own personal touch.
"Sister 'Vurowus,' do you have anything to eat for ?" The rabbit-eared maid swung her legs while sitting on a high bar stool, with her hands propping up her chin, looking at the smiling maid inside the counter.
"Nope, 'Belfeng,' you're a rabbit; you can't eat at. I'm preparing this portion for 'Dantalion.'" Inside the counter, she grilled beef, and the sizzling sound accompanied by the aroma of rosemary wafted into the air, quite tempting.
'Vurowus' (Forneus): The thirtieth Demon God of King Solomon's seventy-two pillar demons, commanding twenty-nine legions, he appears as a large, silver-colored sea creature. Skilled in speech and able to teach people the art of debate, he also has the power to make adversaries into friends.
"Who says rabbits can't eat at? I want to eat sothing made by 'Vurowus's' own hands too." She lowered her arm and then propped her head on her folded arms, gazing at the serene maid cooking.
"I've had a tough day, Belfeng. You could order sothing from the staff restaurant upstairs. They have special als there." The maid with silvery trim continued flipping the steak with a spatula.
"'Dantalion' is here for the first ti today, which is rare, so I'm making it myself just for her. You keep out of it. Besides, it's not like you haven't eaten here before; why are you so greedy today?"
"Because I'm hungry. I spent a lot of ti today showing 'Dantalion' around, so I'm tired."
"There, you don't need to act pitiful. I know all about Belfeng's stamina. Even if you keep going for another whole day, you won't get tired." Unfortunately, the maid across the counter wasn't taken in by the rabbit-eared girl's coquettish behavior.
"Well, it's grilled to perfection. A sprinkle of spices and paired with fluffy, sweet-slling cold smoked rice cake, and it's all done." After saying that, she arranged the food on a plate and brought it to the counter to hand over to the patiently waiting Hexia.
T4 level Purple Herb Steak Combo (Rare): Made with ingredients containing partial transcendental effects, including Purple Herb, molten beef, and cold smoked rice which can quickly restore physical strength and replenish Magic Power; long-term consumption can enhance physical fitness.
"Thank you, Sister 'Vurowus.'
Hexia took the combo al sowhat flustered, knowing that at high-end restaurants outside, a T4 level al with transcendental effects could cost between 600 and 2000, not to ntion that this one was made from choice ingredients and handcrafted with care, so its price would likely be even higher.
Just this one al was equivalent to her half a month's salary.
Seeing Hexia eat gingerly, and even a bit uneasily, Belfeng poured her a glass of fruit juice.
"Don't be nervous, 'Vurowus' took care of the cost of the ingredients for your al. You don't have to worry about the company finding out and punishing you. As for the cost 'Vurowus' deducted, she can earn it back by making one or two extra als for custors in a day. It doesn't take too much ti."
"Ha, 'Belfeng' makes it sound so easy." The maid inside the counter expressed that the rabbit's statent was a bit exaggerated.
"But go ahead and eat at ease, little 'Dantalion.' Indeed, it's just a matter of spending a bit more ti, don't be too nervous."
The maids working at 'Dream of Glazed Glass' were used to earning and spending big, and for Hexia, who had always lived a simple life, such a scene was still too overwhelming.
"Thank you, Sister 'Vurowus.'
Since her father's departure, Hexia had lived a hard life alone and had never been cared for and loved by her seniors like today. She had thought that her first job would surely be very tough, maybe even falling into many pitfalls before struggling to find her footing.
Fate is so wonderful. After more than ten years of an ordinary life full of ups and downs, it had finally brought her a bright turn in the dark tunnel.
