Chapter 337 – #74_The Witch of Laziness (2)
#335
One.
It’s been a week since I became an ambassador for Rose Glass, a host bar in Gehenna.
There were no special events.
At best Sharon came over to hang out and her twins often came to show her face.
In other words, it also meant that Takasho’s host bar business was growing smoothly.
The fact that there are no problems means that it has succeeded in securing regular customers without any major problems.
In fact, from the first day, sales showed a gradual upward-sloping graph, and cards of witches who expressed their intention to revisit were also full.
“It’s already fast.”
About 1 hour before opening time.
Wearing her suit, Siwoo leaned against the sofa in her lounge and stroked her hair.
This all-back hair, which was considered ridiculous, is now somewhat adapted to it.
When she was trying to pass the time leisurely while smoking a cigarette.
Looking out of her window, she saw a witch quarreling with Paul the gatekeeper.
Her gray hair that falls down to her waist is tied at the end of her waist, her chin is raised and she has a disgruntled expression on her face.
“It’s an apprentice witch.”
For a witch, it was possible to guess at a glance with her youthful appearance.
And judging from the parasol, which is probably comparable to the price of a mid-sized sedan, it seems to be the daughter of a fairly famous witch.
I can’t hear a single conversation, whether or not I’m talking loudly.
After a while, Paul nodded her head and entered the host bar.
It wasn’t long before the door to the break room opened.
“Brother Siu. Please help me.”
Unfortunately, Paul, who was sweating profusely, complained to Siu with a troubled expression.
“The business hasn’t even started yet, but he wants to meet Hansako. Even if I explained that it was against fairness due to being overbooked, they couldn’t understand it…. ‘If it was before opening time, it would have been better. I will pay as much as I want, so please call a male witch.”
“I can roughly guess. Who?”
“That, Countess Yesod’s apprentice witch, Diana Yesod….”
“Yesod?”
Whoa, that’s a giant.
Paul, who was good at sending back dissatisfied witches, seemed to be at a loss and asked for help.
Count Yesod, one of the seven Counts of Gehenna.
That apprentice witch would be a pretty big deal among the customers she had come to so far.
So far, countless witches have visited the host bar, but no archwitch or nobles have visited.
Is the department store sale event like the pride of the ladies who don’t pay attention? Is guessing
It would be unwilling to stand in line to meet for only 15 minutes in a crowded place like this.
“What can I do? I’ll have to meet you. Take me inside.”
“Are you okay?”
“I’m still entertaining all day, so there’s nothing special about having one more person?”
“Yep! Thank you!”
Paul turned red and ran back downstairs.
Siwoo also tidied up her clothes one last time and moved to the table.
It was a well-thought-out move in its own way.
I felt it over my shoulder as I watched Takasho run the host bar, but in this business, ‘witch hospitality’ is just the beginning of the business.
More important is networking.
The personal connections created in the process of entertaining witches and securing regular witches have infinite potential that cannot be compared to gold coins.
It is possible to generate profits in a completely unexpected direction, or to establish a new investment plan by collecting information that is only floating among witches.
In that sense, the count’s apprentice witch was an excellent customer.
If she can be secured as a new regular, she will be of help to Takasho beyond comparison with the other witches.
“This is second.”
In fact, more importantly, the apprentice witch who came this time is none other than the apprentice witch of the Yesod family.
Yesod’s magnetism magic is none other than magic that utilizes a force field.
In fact, most of the materials Siu referred to in the library were also referring to Count Yesod’s thesis.
If I could use this as an opportunity to get to know the apprentice witch, wouldn’t it be helpful to interpret the red branch?
The selfish mind called was mixed the most.
This is because you can receive corrections from the best authorities in the field.
“Welcome, thank you for coming. My name is Shin Si-woo, who is in charge of entertaining the witch Diana Yesod.”
Siwoo greeted Diana with a commercial smile.
Up close, she had a very unique aura.
First of all, it is an all white outfit.
From dresses with full frills to gloves, shoes, and even tights that come above the knee, they boasted pure white light.
Not a frizzy ash tone, but grayish long hair with a clean shine.
The vermillion eyes, which contrast with the overall color, give a strong impression.
However, this is only an appearance, and has no direct relation to the atmosphere.
However, the languid eyes that looked like they would yawn at any moment, and the corners of their eyes that slid down.
It meant that the lack of motivation and detached feeling did not suit a typical apprentice witch at all.
Why didn’t even the twins have bright eyes that said that everything in the world was amazing?
Compared to that, this is like the Nth round of life.
“Nice to meet you.”
Diana sat down in her seat, ignoring Siu’s hand as she escorted her.
Since this happened quite often, Siwoo naturally accompanied him.
However, since her opponent was an apprentice witch, she did not stick right next to her and sat in the front seat.
“It is an honor to meet the Witch Apprentice of Yesod Family. What did you come for?”
Up until this point, Siu did not think it would be difficult to deal with Diana.
The only apprentice witches Siu has ever dealt with are Odile and Odette.
She’s stubborn, but she’s definitely more immature than her witch.
Besides, isn’t Siwoo no longer a slave?
She thought it would be relatively easy to respond.
“I heard you know how to use magic?”
But as soon as those pretty lips parted and the clichéd lines of stubborn and proud witches came out, I regained my mind.
Besides, those eyes.
Even though he is full of doubts, it is impossible to be comfortable with his eyes that do not seem to acknowledge its existence.
“For now, yes.”
“Anyway, a promise is a promise, so I’ll order you a drink first. Bring me the most expensive one here.”
The most expensive drink?
It’s hard to think of this as a normal pub.
As there are plenty of high-quality liquor prepared for witches, Rose Glass’s most expensive liquor is eye-popping and does not consider cost-effectiveness.
“At our host bar, we have prepared a variety of drinks that suit the tastes of witches. How about looking at the catalog and choosing your favorite sake?”
But all in all, ‘Alcohol in our house is expensive. Can you pay for it?’ Is a bad idea.
Even though she is an apprentice witch, she is definitely a countess witch.
There is absolutely no need to scratch your ego.
“Okay, the most expensive one. I made an appointment with the gatekeeper over there.”
Just like that, Diana took out a thin metal card on the table.
It was a credit document that Shiu also had.
Write the name and price of the drink on the receipt and show it.
“So, at this level, do you like alcohol?”
“Like.”
I didn’t order the most expensive one without notice.
Both Jemenai and Yesod are famous for their rich families, but the liquor with Gehenna’s customs and host bar premium costs N billion.
Therefore, the liquor shown to Diana is of the highest class even in the middleweight line.
She didn’t want rumors going around that Rose Glass was cheating on her apprentice witch.
I wondered if this was too expensive, but Diana nodded her head kindly.
“All right. There is a Champagne Tower event included in this prize, so please wait.”
“No, that’s all right. I’m here because I want to talk to you. Sit here.”
“I will do whatever you want.”
A guest with a clear purpose.
‘A male witch? I can not believe it. A customer who came with the thought, “I have to see it with my own eyes and verify it!”
I’ve dealt with them many times, so I roughly expected the development after this.
“There have been three tricksters in Gehenna who have boasted of perfecting her magnetic magic.”
Surprisingly, this is also an episode that I have heard from other witches.
“I see, I wouldn’t have believed it if it had been someone else’s rumor. Luck was with me.”
“I only believe in what I see with my own eyes.”
“Can I do a magic demonstration?”
“Do it.”
A high-pressure atmosphere that is respectable but never feels respectable.
I feel that Count Yesod did a good job educating his children.
She was still only an apprentice witch, but to show her witch-like appearance like this.
However, Siwoo’s sales smile never collapsed.
After swallowing a bitter smile inside, he raised a black shadow in his hand as he always does.
“Bloom.”
Fluttering black particles.
A darkness that seemed to absorb all the surrounding light swayed in his grasp.
Is it because of the thick double eyelids or because of the cute little corner of the eyes?
Diana’s eyes widened slightly, looking somewhat sleepy.
“…….”
“You can take a look.”
The Law of Shadows is the raw material for most of Siwoo’s magic.
Armor, weapons, and ribbons were made using the particles of this shadow.
Nevertheless, the reason why Siu can easily show off in front of other witches like this is because the improvement of the shadow has already been completed.
When making armor or armour, he uses the elemental magic he learned from Sharon to remix shadows.
When weaving ribbons, weave them in the form of thread by using a separate magnetic magic called the maiden’s loom.
Therefore, the magic that Siu showed as her magic demonstration was the original form obtained from the ‘Gnosis Egg’ and was not of a very high level.
Of course, most witches were amazed that men could use magic.
“…….”
Diana carefully inspected the shadow that fluttered on Siwoo’s hand.
Magic with a difference that is clearly different from public magic.
It is certain that it is magnetic magic.
I had never heard of this form of magic, nor had I ever seen it myself.
But what can I say?
This shabby thing that seems like it will fly away if you blow it.
– Phat!
Diana drew a force field from her hand.
It was a disc-shaped thin magic circle that served as a touchstone for observing various types of magic.
When she applied the shadows with her fingertips, she was able to classify them without difficulty.
A fine magic circle in the form of a hook.
Its characteristic is that it clings to other magic and hinders the development of magic.
Even the obvious weakness that can’t resist in front of overwhelming magical power.
Succeed in grasping in an instant.
It’s only about this….
Diana felt her disappointment and, at the same time, a bittersweet feeling inside her.
It was disappointing in that the magic she had been bothering to check over such a long distance was magnetic magic that even Diana could imitate with a little practice.
As expected, the fact that it’s pretty sloppy magic for self-proclaiming a male witch feels exhilarating.
Doesn’t that mean that Diana’s hypothesis was correct?
“It’s fun. I know it’s a pretty good level. It’s true that it’s really magnetic magic.”
However, the man smiled proudly after using that level of magic.
It would be great to achieve that level in just one generation, but I thought a little that I wanted to let people know about the subject.
It was undeniable that she was a bad character, but it was an extremely rare desire for Diana.
Have I become a little more diligent by forcing myself to go outside these days?
Diana opened her mouth with self-praise.
“But I can’t guess the level from this alone.”
“Just give me a command. As promised, the next 40 minutes are for Lady Diana.”
40 minutes is appropriate.
Even though Diana was still an apprentice witch, she was confident that she could deal with male witches who were made at will.
She, of course, has no intention of doing anything uncultured by using magic to fight.
It’s obvious, but it’s overwhelmingly annoying.
From her seat, there was a very good way to determine whose magical literacy was superior.
“So, do you have a location board?”
It is a game of magic.
