Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva

Chapter 26: 17 Legendary Songstress 'Golden Flame Rose'_2

Using her employee privileges, Andusia opened the door and took Hexia to the dressing room to change clothes, then helped her comb her hair.

However, everyone has their own style; Andusia did not choose to give Hexia cat ear headbands but picked a blooming white and green chrysanthemum instead. She secured it to the side of Hexia's head with a special hair clip, like a tiny crown. The hairband and the bows on the collar were also in white and green, creating a naturally elegant style.

Once the preparation was complete, Andusia nodded slightly, seemingly very satisfied, and then led Hexia to start her shift at the store.

"This morning, you'll work in my flower house, watering the plants, and then I'll teach you some details about the job."

"Mhm."

Compared to the stress of working at the bar or as a maid, Andusia's flower house indeed made Hexia feel much more at ease—it was also very tranquil.

Seeing the expectation and seriousness in Hexia's eyes, Andusia smiled again, helping her tidy the strands of hair on her forehead.

"As long as you don't find it too dull."

In the morning, there weren't many customers; after all, at this time, most people were working, with only a few who were very idle getting up early to talk to maids in the store or to gather with friends.

In the transparent glass-partitioned flower house, vines were everywhere. In every planter, plants and flowers were growing vigorously, some even blooming.

"This pot is aster. Just water it moderately; it's quite easy to care for. The one next to it is a wild lily. Don't water it too much..." Andusia instructed while telling Hexia about the habits of various plants and their flower languages.

Hexia watered the plants while listening. Even though she was a little tired today, her memory seemed to be exceptionally good—perhaps this too was a benefit of awakening her Talent?

After introducing the commonly seen plants on one side of the flower house, Andusia began to talk about some plants that had extraordinary effects.

"This pot here is cold Rin hanging orchid, which emits cold air to lower the surrounding temperature when room temperature exceeds 20 degrees Celsius. Though the effect of a single plant isn't much, the upper circle of the flower house is lined with it, which is why the flower house isn't hot but comfortable. It also has a slight effect on air purification. Of course, one shouldn't rely on it too much." Andusia pointed out the rows of green and white vines hanging above to Hexia.

"No wonder." The girl blinked, feeling somewhat intrigued.

Even though Transcendent plants were covered in the textbooks, seeing them with her own eyes was something else.

"I usually take care of these hanging orchids because I specialize in the Natural Sequence. If I don't come to work for some time, you can go find 'Bathin.' She is also of the Natural Sequence and can help take care of them." (Bathin: Ranked 18th among King Solomon's 72 Demon Gods, Bathin appears as a serpent-tailed figure riding a colorful horse. She can distinguish medicinal herbs and gems and can teleport people over long distances.)

"As for the other pots, that one there is Wolf's Gold Daisy. It's bright orange, almost golden, with petals that have extraordinary medicinal effects. Well, after the blooming period in June, we can harvest the petals and store them.

"This pot here is Snow Velvet Lily, light and fluffy. In ancient times, holding a Snow Velvet Lily could let you slowly descend from a great height, though nowadays it's mostly for ornamental purposes. Many girls like this kind of flower."

Hexia spent the whole morning learning, as if she had returned to her school days, with Andusia being a wonderful teacher and mentor. She taught Hexia how to care for these flowers, shared their origins, uses, and messages, among other things.

Before they knew it, midday arrived, and Andusia took Hexia to the employee cafeteria for lunch. In the afternoon, Andusia then took Hexia to another maid's workstation.

"'Botis,' I'll leave 'Dantalion' in your care this afternoon." Andusia spoke to the green-haired maid in front of her while pulling Hexia, who was hiding behind, to the front.

"Hehe, no problem~?"

(Botis: Ranked 17th among King Solomon's 72 Demon Gods, one of his appearances is that of an ugly viper. When summoned by a Magician, he takes human form, holding a horn and a sword. He knows the past and present and can distinguish between friends and foes.)

This maid, around the same age as Andusia, also had an impressive figure. She had waist-length emerald wavy hair, and behind the glass partition was a thick, lush jungle, with verdant leaves and venomous flowers scattered throughout, and colorful poison dart frogs and slender snakes.

If you were to say that both were in charge of plant glass houses, then 'Andusia' and 'Botis' were completely different in style.

'Andusia's place was serene, warm, and relaxing, while 'Botis's was filled with danger, poison, and tension. No wonder Hexia felt a bit afraid, as having a vibrant green snake staring at you and flicking its tongue would naturally make you uneasy.

After 'Andusia' left, 'Botis' approached with a bright smile.

"Is 'Dantalion' scared?" She seemed quite interested in the cute girl who dared not move.

"Come on in first." Saying this, she pulled the reluctant Hexia into the jungle, teeming with poisonous creatures. Hexia could even see some scary bugs crawling on the ground.

"Are all these poisonous?" The girl finally couldn't help asking.

"Yes they are, and their toxicity is quite potent, hehe."

"But don't worry, the store always has serum available, so it's no big deal even if you get bitten." She turned her head to reassure the girl not to worry.
