“What? You’re not willing?” Irina furrowed her brows a little. She thought the terms that she offered were rather good.

  “N-no.” Jane swiftly shook her head. After a moment of hesitation, she perplexedly asked, “I just don’t understand, why would you pick me?”


  “Because I’m too lazy to go out to find someone else,” Irina said frankly.

  “.……”


  Jane stared at Irina, and she had no idea how to describe her current feelings.

  “Our restaurant has just started for business, and we’re short of one service staff member. If you’re willing to join our service staff, we can provide three meals, lodging, and an appropriate salary,” Mag said to Jane. Just like Irina said, he, too, was too lazy to go and recruit staff. It was naturally the best if this demon maiden was suitable.

  Jane looked at Mag. Although this demon looked a little weird, his eyes were clean and clear, and made people trust him.

  Furthermore, that little demon with a pair of pincers on her head was so adorable.

  She couldn’t suspect such a family of three. After a brief hesitation, she nodded. “If you’re willing to let me stay, Jane will be very glad to.

  “But, I could bring you trouble if I stay on,” Jane quickly added. She didn’t want to cause any disaster to anyone just like her mother. If it weren’t because she wanted to protect her……

  “Trouble? It doesn’t exist.” Irina waved her relaxedly. She told Jane who was still standing in the fake mountains, “Come out first.”


  Jane quickly came out of the fake mountains. Pain flashed across her face when her bloodied feet touched the ground laid with seashells, but she didn’t make a sound or a strained expression.

  Irina glanced at Jane’s feet before walking up to her and grabbing her wrist gently.

  A green beam entered Jane’s body though her wrist. She only felt a cool sensation sweeping across her body, and all the wounds on her body began to heal right in front of her eyes.

  “Let’s go. I’ll bring you for a bath and change your clothes.” Irina released Jane’s wrist and walked toward the restaurant.

  Jane regained her wits, and discovered that the wounds on her body had all recovered. The sensation of pain was all gone too. That wound on her hand only had a light pink mark left, as if it was never wounded before.

  “T-thank you.” Jane was amazed at Irina’s formidable healing magic and swiftly thanked her. She quickly caught up with Irina’s pace, but she halted her footsteps at the restaurant’s entrance. Looking at the clean restaurant and her muddy and bloodied feet, she hesitated to step in.

  “Let’s wear a pair of slippers. Your feet will feel more comfortable.” Mag placed a pair of slippers in front of Jane. Mopping was a tedious chore, and making her step in directly was going to stress her out.

  “Thank you.” Jane bowed at Mag deeply, and then placed her feet gingerly into that pair of pretty pink slippers. The soft texture was so comfortable that it surprised her. She had never worn shoes that were so comfortable. She used to wear grass shoes that her mother weaved with seaweeds, and her feet were always cut by stones.

  Jane only stepped into the restaurant carefully after wearing a pair of clean shoes. The bright and clean restaurant had neatly arranged tables and chairs. All these amazed her because she had never seen a restaurant like this on Carapace Island.

  “The bathroom is upstairs,” Irina said at the staircase before going upstairs.

  Jane swiftly retrieved her gaze and followed Irina up.

  Mag kept the two nets that held the crayfish, and said in his brain, “System, let’s choose a female outfit.”


  “Host, have you decided to put on a female outfit?” There was a hint of excitement in the system’s voice.

  “I’m choosing a working uniform for the new staff member.” Mag rolled his eyes.

  “Oh, I see. They are all showing off their hosts’ pictures of wearing female outfits in our circles recently……” the system said disappointedly.

  “What the hell!?” Mag cocked an eyebrow. He could sense that things weren’t that simple.

  “If the Host is willing to put on a female outfit, this System could provide all the female outfits that you can select and give you a makeup experience bag as a gift.” The system was still trying to convince him.

  “Get lost!” Mag rejected coldly. That was so gay. Was he that kind of person?

  Mag chose a red-and-white short-sleeved maid costume with a long skirt for Jane. It was always summer at the Boundless Sea Realm, and Carapace Island was a typical tropical island with a daily 30-plus degrees Celsius temperature.

  Choosing the maid’s costume was because the maid’s costume was relatively conservative. It was the best to maintain a low profile while doing business on Carapace Island. Being a little conservative could save them a lot of trouble.

  “The female outfits that the System likes: 1. Maid costume; 2. School swimsuit—”


  “Alright, you can shut up now.” Mag clicked open the list that System displayed. He went in to retrieve the maid costume and black leather shoes that the System delivered to the door. He then went upstairs to pass them to Irina, who had just taught Jane how to use the shower and the different kinds of toiletries.

  “When did you prepare the clothes? Whom are these meant for? They’re not my size?” Irina asked as she unfurled the maid’s costume, staring at Mag.

  Mag sensed an unusual hostility. He had slipped up as he had forgotten about problems like this. After the sparks flashed through his mind, he casually said, “This is the uniform I prepared for Miya previously. But it was too small, so I just kept it. I wonder if Jane could fit into it.”


  “Oh, I see.” Irina nodded as she believed Mag’s words.

  “Phew.” Mag turned around and heaved a breath of relief as he gave his own wits a thumbs up.

  Jane came down about 30 minutes later, and walked to Mag and Irina who were drinking tea. She greeted them softly while staring at her black leather shoes. “Boss, Lady boss.”


  “It fits nicely.” Irina appraised the maid costume on Jane. It fits so nice as if it was custom-made.

  “Don’t be so nervous. You’re the restaurant’s employee, and our relationship is an employer-and-employee relationship, not a master-and-servant relationship.” Mag smiled. Jane looked totally different after a bath and a change of clothes.

  Her palm-sized face had intricate and distinct features. Although her skin was rather tan, and she had freckles due to long-term sun exposure, she had a youthful aura with her damp grayish-white hair loose around her shoulders.

  “Woah, Big Sister Jane is so pretty,” Amy said with a smile as she walked around Jane.

  “Mm-hm.” Jane lifted her head up to give Irina and Mag a shy smile.

  “Alright, we will start operating officially at noon. Let me tell you about your work scope.” Mag got up and walked to the kitchen. He soon came back with a big stack of plates and three live and energetic crayfish.
