Chapter 46: The Development of the Elves
It was a new day. Heshia was still wearing a black and white maid dress, busy in the store. Compared with her initial immaturity, she could now complete some tasks more skillfully.
After lunch, the bar where she was working became a little quieter, and it was her turn for a lunch break.
"Then I'll go and rest first, Sister Xier." The girl looked at the maid who was still concentrating on mixing tea at the bar and said.
Xier (Seere): The 70th demon among the 72 demons of King Solomon, a noble son, commanding 26 legions and under the control of the King of the East. His original form is a handsome man riding on a winged Pegasus.
She knew that if this senior Xier was immersed in mixing tea, if she didn't speak, it might take half an hour for the other party to react.
"Oh, 'Dentarian' is back. Sorry I didn't notice it just now. Um, you go and rest first. I'll do it next."
The maid looked to be in her 20s, with thick black hair that reached her shoulders, and a emerald leaf-shaped hairpin on her ear. Her black and white maid outfit was also decorated with green trims,
and her style was soft. The bar where she was located mainly served tea and snacks. 'Xi'er' was also good at blending many oriental teas, from the common green tea, black tea, flower tea, black tea, and even herbal tea. She would also make some biscuits and snacks to match them, mainly for some female guests to use at gatherings.
Heshia had been following her side in recent days, mainly helping to prepare raw materials and making biscuits and snacks.
"By the way, 'Dentarian'." When Heshia was about to leave, the other party stopped her again.
"This is for you. I guess you can't eat well at noon again. Have some biscuits." She handed over a small paper box with freshly made homemade biscuits.
T4-level 'Cranberry Biscuits' (excellent), made with special King Strawberries, Cranberry Jam, and Morning Flour, have a better sense of fullness and can supplement some nutrition. The advantages are that they are peaceful and non-irritating, relieve anxiety, and contain a small amount of stable extraordinary core, which is suitable for all kinds of people and situations. (Loved by people who don't want to gain weight, have anorexia, and have poor taste)
"This..."
Heshia hesitated a little. Although it doesn't matter if they occasionally use some of the food and drinks in the store, they are generally T5-level ingredients. If it is T4-level, it will not be so casual, just like when 'Furuus' used to treat herself to a set meal, the cost of raw materials was deducted from her own bonus.
"It's okay, these are necessary losses, and we usually deal with them ourselves." Seeing her hesitation, 'Xi'er' smiled and stuffed the box into Heshia's hand.
"I make about 30 servings of snacks and biscuits every day, and about 1-2 of them are not given to customers because of their poor quality. I usually deal with them myself."
"Can't I sell them at a discount?" The girl was curious. Although Xier said that the quality was not good enough, this was only compared to her usual level. If it was sold outside, this box of biscuits would cost at least several hundred federal coins.
"No, even if you eat it, you can't sell it at a discount. Either give it to other maids as a benefit or throw it into the trash can." Xier recalled the manager's instructions.
"The manager said that if we sell it at a discount, it will lower the grade of the store and give people a feeling of being poor and stingy. The reason why we can maintain such a high premium operation is that we have created a good atmosphere and reputation, which can't be compensated by selling it at a discount."
"Is that so..." Heshia took the small box of biscuits, bowed her head to thank her, and then waved goodbye to Xier.
Looking at the back of the girl leaving, Xier talked to herself.
"Dantrian has been here for almost a month now, so it's probably time for her to open her own bar."
In the afternoon in the Wisteria Flower House, Heshia continued her previous violin practice, but today she was still familiar with the performance of the violin. She had to learn many details and turns in the music score from Anducia.
Time passed slowly, and Anducia occasionally took over the violin and demonstrated it to Heshia. Unlike her usual stable and mature image, after holding the violin, Anducia was like a swan with its head raised, with a sudden bright beauty, as if she was standing in an opera house with thousands of people watching and performing as a famous performer.
Seeing Anducia immersed in the music, Heshia also forgot that she was supposed to learn the techniques and rhythms. After a while, she waited for Anducia to finish playing before she reacted.
Seeing the girl's dazed look, Anducia felt a little cute and funny, so she had to slowly demonstrate it again, but this time it was not as continuous as before. She let the girl see clearly every time before moving on to the next step.
"I haven't played the violin like this for a long time. I couldn't help myself today." At the end of the lunch break, Heshia put away the violin and talked to Andusia.
"Was Andusia a professional violinist before?"
"I was a professional before, but I played the cello more often. That was about 20 years ago." Andusia recalled.
"Wait, 20 years ago?" The girl opened her eyes wide.
"Yes, didn't Belfinger tell you that I'm an elf?" She talked about the blonde hair on the side of her ear, revealing her long and narrow ears.
"The lifespan of elves is different from that of humans. It's about three times that of humans. Now I'm equivalent to 27 years old as a human."
"Indeed, you are a big sister..." Heshia estimated Andusia's age in her heart, but the other party seemed to notice it and looked at her, then knocked the girl's head.
"Don't use human views to judge me. I'm still very young."
"Okay, sister Andusia." The girl apologized for her impolite thoughts just now, and then curiously asked Andusia many things about elves.
"There are very few elves in the Emerald Skirt now. Where have most of them gone?"
"Most of them have moved to the central star field, and some who like quietness have gone to explore remote star fields." The golden-haired elf sister recalled.
"My grandfather's grandfather was one of the first people to come to Emerald Skirt to explore. At that time, they used purple-red microorganisms to absorb and purify the sulfides that permeated the planet, and then began to spread and create a lot of algae, until the sea was slowly dyed green."
"Sufficient oxygen allowed many active substances on the planet to oxidize, and then the ozone layer was slowly formed. After that, plants were spread. It was not smooth in the early days because most of the surface was rock. Later, it was slowly corroded by vegetation, and then the initial soil was created." "
By the time my grandfather's grandfather completed the project, most of his life had passed, which took about 180 years. But in the end he was happy because he witnessed the birth of a emerald green planet with his own eyes. Finally, he and his colleagues named this planet "Emerald Skirt" because the tilted continental forests and fields are as beautiful as a skirt, distributed in layers."
Perhaps only the elves would have such patience and perseverance to transform a barren planet. Human lifespan is too short, making it difficult for them to calm down and stick to something.
Even in today's Federation, the development of some remote planets is still led by the elves. It is no wonder that their number is very small, but their influence in the Federation has always been great.
