Omake: Surprisingly Good

"So, I finally got a chance to look over your report."

"Mm?"

"Don't talk with your mouth full, Eleanor."

"...Sorry."

"Just nod your head next time. Anyway! The reason you decided to work here is because, and I quote, '[you] wanted to open a candy shop'. Is that correct?"

-nod-

"Am I right in assuming that you have no experience with management, finances, or the other responsibilities necessary for running a small business?"

-nod-

"Good! I was about to get rid of these since I don't need them anymore, but I feel that even if they're a bit outdated, they should be a humong- I mean tremendous asset to you!"

"..."

"Ta-dah! I'm entrusting you with my old textbooks! They're not as good as work experience, but reading these should help prepare you for the real deal!"

"Textbooks?"

"What's wrong?"

"Well, I have to be honest. Textbooks aren't something that I wanted."

"Oh."

"...but they sound like something that I needed. So... thanks. Thanks a lot for giving me these."

"Hmm. Don't thank me just yet. You still have to deal with that Vanus trance-"

"Um..."

"Don't interrupt me, please! You have to deal with that Vanus trance and actually work behind the counter!"

-nod-

"Now then, you were saying?"

"I was told that something was being done about it. That the Warmaster was planning something to deal with that."

"Oh. Well, in that case, you're welcome!"

"Huh?"

"I'll take that thanks now, Eleanor."

"...heh."

"Well! Now that your shift's up and your lunch is finished, you're dismissed for today."

"Thanks for that, too, by the way!"

"Goodbye, then!"

"Goodbye!"

"Don't count on a free lunch in the future!

"I won't."

"And don't come in early like that again!"

"Got it."
