Inside the office after school.

"Ellie, the principal has approved your request to work." Seeing the little girl's slightly nervous expression, Teacher Monsa stated the result directly.

Sure enough, the little girl soon smiled.

"The job the school offers now is to help clean the library. You can work after school and the pay is one silver coin a week. On weekends, you can work at a nearby bakery and the pay is three silver coins a month. Alternatively, you can intern at the Adventurers' Guild in the west of the city, where the pay is two silver coins a week, but the work will be more strenuous."

One silver coin equals 100 copper coins, 100 silver coins equals one gold coin, and 1000 gold coins equal one purple gold coin. It would cost Ellie about a dozen copper coins to buy food for her family of three for a day.

"Teacher, let me think about it."

"It's okay, no rush."

"Lofan, do you have any suggestions?" Ellie asked the slime on her shoulder in her mind.

"Of course I'll go to the Adventurers' Guild. We'll be exploring dungeons soon, so it's always good to learn about it first. Perhaps Master wants to open a bakery in the future?"

"Well, you're right. Then you'll have to help me out from now on!"

"no problem!"

"Teacher, I want to intern at the Adventurers' Guild."

“Good boy, I knew you would make this choice. It’s good for you to gain some experience over there, after all, raising pets is quite expensive. Come back this Friday, and I will give you the letter of recommendation. Now you can go to the library to report for duty.”

"Okay, thank you, Ms. Monsa!"

Inside the library, after reporting to the librarian, Ellie understood her specific job responsibilities: cleaning the library when it closes and tidying up scattered books before closing time.

Currently, she is only in charge of the first floor of the library; the upper floors are managed by upperclassmen, so the workload is not very heavy.

In a corner of the library, Daisy was teaching Snow to read, while a little slime listened attentively beside her. Lofan's clone was about to help Ellie, but was quickly ushered over.

It's really asking too much of a slime that can barely read to organize books.

Inside the library, there were still many students from other classes. When they saw Ellie's slime, they all consciously avoided it. A girl on the second-floor railing stared at that corner for a while, looking thoughtful.

After the museum closed, Luo Fan began to truly shine, transforming into a fully automatic vacuum cleaner and quickly cleaning the floor, leaving the staff in awe.

Ellie: "This money is so easy to earn! I can even read books, perfect!"

Luo Fan: "Little brat, now you know how powerful Brother Fan is!"

Time flew by, and soon it was the weekend; it was time to go out and work.

"Remember, don't cause me any trouble!" Ellie reminded him repeatedly before leaving, afraid that this guy would mess things up for her.

During Potions class, his haphazard help directly detonated the potion that Ellie had prepared, earning the teacher a terrible review!

"Understood, Master!"

As expected of the bustling western part of the city, even in the morning, there are still quite a few people coming and going, and many of them bring all sorts of small pets.

Luo Fan was quite impressed; he kept looking around, afraid of missing anything.

The streets were filled with a dazzling array of general stores, potion shops, food stores, and equipment shops. Various strange and wonderful magical creatures roamed the streets, some resembling mice, others snakes, and birds of all colors. Many people were also carrying all sorts of weapons, moving in and out of a massive, multi-story building.

"Wow, is this the legendary Adventurers' Guild? It feels like the elemental concentration here is even higher than at home."

"Of course, I heard there's a magic gathering array inside, and the guild also has a training room with even higher magic concentration."

"Let's go inside quickly!"

"Remember, don't cause trouble!"

"Okay, okay, I'm tired of hearing this!"

Inside the guild, since it wasn't time for work yet, there was no signboard girl in front of the desk. However, a considerable number of people had gathered on one side, pointing and gesturing around a huge wall.

It wasn't time for work yet, and no one had accepted the task. A burly man who looked like a guard sat by the wall, chatting casually with the person next to him.

"Huh, what's that black thing? A Black Ball Beast?"

"Black Ball Beast has fur, okay? I think it's just a black-skinned beast! That girl is still wearing her school uniform, so she probably just formed a contract with her."

"Nonsense, that thing is already level 21. The girl should be a second-year student. She looks very pretty, but one part of her body isn't very prominent."

Before long, Luo Fan stopped paying attention to the conversation between the two perverts, because the legendary mascot girls appeared. They were dressed in matching blue striped linen dresses, looking quite capable, and one of them had a prominent bust that instantly attracted the attention of a large group of like-minded people.

Sure enough, they were the professionals; Luo Fan couldn't help but glance at them several times, feeling embarrassed.

Hello, how can I help you?

Ellie spotted an empty window and quickly walked over.

"No wonder no one's coming over, turns out she's flat-chested and not very good-looking either," Luo Fan couldn't help but complain.

Sure enough, no matter which world you're in, the preferences of perverts are pretty much the same.

"I was introduced to this internship by Ms. Monsa from Sacred Heart College, and this is my letter of recommendation."

The girl glanced at the stamp on the envelope, then at the slime, and then stood up.

"You must be Ellie. Please come with me. Your job will be arranged by the manager."

"OK, thanks!"

"Is that Ai Li? The legendary contracted slime?" Upon hearing this name, many people around looked over, but in the end, they only saw a back view.

"That dark, shadowy thing is a slime, one of those magical beasts that eat clothes. I heard that the young master of the Marquis of Mair's family had all his clothes eaten and was left running around naked!"

"It's his own fault for being so weak. He could have been isolated with just a wind barrier, but he panicked and I heard he hasn't dared to go to school lately."

“But this Ellie is here looking for a job because she was abandoned by her family. She’ll be part of the guild from now on, so you’re not allowed to bully her!” the burly man warned.

"No problem!" Many people echoed.

Upstairs in the conference room, Ellie met the manager and roughly understood the content of her internship, which was to serve as a backup mascot. She was also assigned a teacher.

"You'll be interning with Joanna from now on. She's always busy, so you can help her out!"

"Okay, thank you, sir."

Then, led by a servant, Ellie returned to the service hall and went behind Joanna's counter.

"Wow, so her name is Joanna!"

Looking at the girl next to him who was patiently explaining, Luo Fan's small eyes followed the soft breasts on the table as they moved up and down.

Meanwhile, many adventurers were also enjoying the show. The one at the very front was still rambling on, but his eyes didn't seem to move much.

"You little pervert, what are you looking at? Snap out of it!" Ellie tugged at her pet, tossed it aside, and looked at it with murderous intent.

Having finally gotten rid of the older man in front of her, Joanna then looked at Ellie to the side.

What an exquisite little girl, so fresh and refined!

It's okay, once you've been in this industry for a while, you'll become a seasoned pro too!

After confirming Ellie's work with the servant, Joanna shouted something outside. She already knew that the little girl in front of her was the rumored contracted slime.

"From now on, I'll protect this little girl. If any bastard dares to bully her, I'll chop him up!"

"No, no!"

"Who dares to mess with Sister Anna? They'd have a death wish!"

After bursts of laughter, she gave Ellie a brief explanation of what needed to be recorded and helped her apprentice familiarize herself with the work.

"What a fierce woman!" The shout made Luo Fan behave himself a bit. Indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
