"The first day...!" The bishop's eyes almost lit up.

She gripped the menu tightly, as if it were some sacred scripture.

Seeing this, the nun beside her couldn't help but cough lightly and whisper, "Your Excellency, we have important business to attend to..."

"Important business? Yes, important business!" The bishop snapped back to reality, but his gaze remained fixed on Xiao Huasheng's halo and wings.

She was silent for a moment, then her tone suddenly became heavy. "My Angel, do you know? This world is about to face a tremendous catastrophe!"

Xiao Huasheng was taken aback. "... Huh?"

The bishop abruptly stood up, his hands gripping the table, his expression fervent. "'The Crimson Son' is about to awaken! His wrath will scorch the earth, His wails will tear the sky apart! At that time, all things will be plunged into eternal torment!"

The other customers in the shop turned to look, some muttering, "Is this guy crazy...?"

"Uh..." Xiao Huasheng was taken aback, as if he had heard something he couldn't help but hear.

But she came today specifically to experience working.

She lowered her head slightly, her red hair falling down.

The faint light falling from the halo gave her face a holy glow.

The nuns and bishop were stunned by her beauty.

She pushed the pencil in front of the bishop and said with her own uniquely adorable expression.

"Sir, if you'd like to order, just tick the box here."

Xiao Huasheng then bowed slightly to her and left immediately.

If I listened any longer, I had a feeling I was about to fall into some terrible situation.

The red-haired Angel and the Queen of Hatred were also busy at work, serving as temporary staff in the restaurant.

This restaurant doesn't normally need this many staff.

But since they were both very cute, the shopkeeper decided to take them in.

"Could this be... a test from Angel? She calls me 'master'." The bishop looked at the menu, his pupils trembling slightly. "Does this mean I have to order more to pass the Angel's test?"

If it weren't for Xiao Huasheng, she would never have stepped into a store like that in her entire life.

This bishop had very little knowledge of maid shops.

"Bishop, I don't think so." Compared to the dull and conservative bishop, the nun had obviously seen more of the world, and she cautiously offered her suggestion.

But the cardinal couldn't care less about that anymore; she took a deep breath.

She frantically ticked off items on the menu, saying she wanted them all!

In a corner unnoticed by anyone, the office worker wearing gold-rimmed glasses ate an omelet rice dish that had been enchanted with the 'hope' magic by the Queen of Hatred.

He clutched his stomach and rushed into the toilet.

Hope seems a bit hard to digest.

At that moment, a young woman with brown hair and bangs cautiously entered the shop.

Xiao Huasheng was soon greeted by him.

"Welcome... Master. It's strange, why are there so many ladies?" Xiao Huasheng said.

"Ah, you, you're here..."

Xiao Huasheng was puzzled; she didn't recognize the girl in front of her.

"Who are you?"

The girl didn't answer; she just nervously sat down in a small corner.

Under Xiao Huasheng's surprised gaze, she buried her head in ordering the dishes.

There are always strange people, but this year there seem to be an unusually large number.

Xiao Huasheng raised an eyebrow slightly.

Meanwhile, the Queen of Hatred was happily working in the shop, treating every customer with great enthusiasm.

They would also proactively cast various little spells on them.

This will make all the guests feel that the money was absolutely well spent.

Xiao Huasheng saw this scene and a smile appeared on his lips.

If the Queen of Hatred could understand that human society is maintained through such relationships, perhaps she wouldn't have become that monster?

But clearly, this was just wishful thinking on Xiao Huasheng's part.

The reason why the Queen of Hatred is so at ease now is not just because she likes Xiao Huasheng.

She even received some promises from Xiao Huasheng's singing.

Through that song, she also learned something.

It turns out that this world will always be in turmoil, and evil will inevitably emerge sooner or later, and can never be completely eradicated.

This alone is enough to give the Queen of Hatred peace of mind and to keep her so stable.

It's just a matter of how long it takes.

As long as this promise remains, the Queen of Hatred's sensitive uncertainty is solidified.

After a while, the bishop and the nun also saw Xiao Huasheng and the Queen of Hatred's performance.

Then the bishop began to eat with great excitement, in which she perceived the food as a form of communion.

Of course, as expected.

After being struck by the spell of hope cast by the Queen of Hatred.

Unable to digest hope, the nun and the bishop were both swallowed into the toilet.

This also drew some murmurs from the store manager.

"There's nothing wrong with the raw materials today, so why are so many customers going to the restroom?"

"Hey."

The Queen of Hatred stuck out her little tongue slightly, clearly indicating that this was entirely her responsibility.

After the peak period passed, Xiao Huasheng finally had some breathing room.

She also turned her gaze to the brown-haired girl in the corner, who was looking down at her phone.

"Hello?"

Xiao Huasheng came over and tentatively asked a question, her face full of doubt.

As expected, she still wanted to know what the other person really meant.

The girl with brown hair lowered her head shyly and stammered, "H-hello."

"You must have come to see me. What can I do for you?"

Anyone with hearing would know that the tea-haired girl was looking for Xiao Huasheng.

After finishing his work, Xiao Huasheng finally had time to talk to her.

It's worth mentioning that she was the only one who didn't get diarrhea after taking 'Hope'.

Then, the brown-haired girl finally mustered up her courage and said, "I hope you can join our Superpower Association, boss!"

"?"

All he got in return was a confused look from Xiao Huasheng.

The Queen of Hatred stood next to Xiao Huasheng, put her finger to her lips, and suddenly realized something.

"Are there any magical girls in there?" the Queen of Hatred asked excitedly, clearly very interested.

Chapter 50: The Arrival of Astartes [3 Updates]

When he saw the Queen of Hatred standing next to Xiao Huasheng,

The Queen of Hatred is indeed a very unique and adorable young girl.

After realizing that the Queen of Hatred was not simple either.

The brown-haired girl tentatively asked, "If you want... if you want to join, I still need to confirm if you're the same kind of person as us."

Then, she closed her eyes tightly and strained her whole body.

"Mmm..." She clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white from the force, and her whole body trembled slightly.

"If you have a stomachache, there's a toilet over there," Xiao Huasheng offered a friendly reminder.

Seeing her constipated appearance, Xiao Huasheng had ample reason to suspect that she was actually defecating.

At this moment, Angela had already guessed who the other person was and began to speak.

I think she's using Reality-Warping Ability.

The tea-haired girl's brows furrowed more and more tightly, and fine beads of sweat even appeared on the tip of her nose.

Hearing this, the girl's cheeks turned even redder, and she ultimately gave up.

"I can't move at all, sister, you're amazing." She looked at the Queen of Hatred and said.

Upon hearing such praise, the Queen of Hatred made no attempt to hide her pride, putting her hands on her hips and raising her head high.

"But I'm the great Hero-class who's going to save the world! I don't know what you did, but I'm just that amazing!"

Upon hearing the Queen of Hatred's words, the brown-haired girl's eyes lit up.

By this point, Xiao Huasheng had pretty much guessed who she was.

"Wait, are you Ultraman?"

These words immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding guests.

Xiao Huasheng suddenly realized that she was the enthusiastic Ultraman Girl he had met at the comic convention.

However, unlike her daring outfit at the time, she looks like this in person.

"You seem a little more shy than before, it feels a bit strange," Xiao Huasheng said, looking at her.

Compared to before, this person is much more conflicted.

"If I had a suit, I would be more courageous, but not now." The tea-haired girl covered her freckled, relaxed, and vibrant face, full of Caucasian features.

It's not exactly beautiful, but it's not ugly either.

However, as a Reality Bender, it's not difficult for her to make everyone think she's beautiful.

Clearly, she didn't care about her appearance; all she wanted was to help people.

In this respect, she's almost on par with Abomination-chan.

"I was wondering if you'd be at a maid cafe, but I didn't expect you to actually be here," the tea-haired girl said.

"Since you came here specifically to see me, why don't you introduce yourself?" Xiao Huasheng said, extending his hand to her after learning her purpose.

"Okay, okay."

"Ultraman Girl," said the brown-haired girl as she introduced herself.

"My name is Reni Farrell."

"Xiao Huasheng, no suffix." Xiao Huasheng said calmly.

"I have no name. I just need everyone to know that I am the Hero-class who saved the world," the Queen of Hatred said with a smile.

Clearly, none of these three girls are poets.

They are all beings that ordinary people can only dream of.

Xiao Huasheng tilted his head and looked at Reni: "So, what did you mean by 'association'? It's not some strange secret society, is it?"

Reni's face flushed bright red, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes. "Um... actually..."

Her voice trailed off, "I just... I want to talk to my sister..."

"Huh?" Xiao Huasheng was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh. "So you just made up an organization on the spot?"

"Because... because it's too embarrassing to just talk to her directly!" Reni stamped her foot anxiously, her ahoge (cowlick) trembling. "Besides, I do know a few Reality Bender friends..."

"Ugh..." Reni was practically fuming, burying her face in her hands, too ashamed to look up.
