Feeling speechless, the black-haired demon sat in the three-legged chair.
The little demon in front of him let out an “ah” and looked at him in confusion.
“The old man said that business will resume today…” Just as the two demons, one big and one small, continued to sit in the small dark room, a low-pitched female voice came from outside the room.
Looks like business came to the door.
“Okay, let’s get to work.” As he spoke, the black-haired demon stood up. Hei Dan, who was still sitting on the table, understood this sentence— Grandpa would always say this to him every morning when they go out to set up a stall, which meant that it’s time for Hei Dan to get ready and count the shining crystals. Although he is young, Hei Dan is also a little demon with a job!
So, upon hearing the big demon say this, the little guy immediately raised his two small claws. The black-haired demon looked at him, then stretched out a hand. The little demon immediately put his two little claws on his hand.
Holding him tightly, the black-haired demon hung him on his shoulders in the cloak and went out.
Sure enough, there was a demon outside, wearing a thick cloak. The demon is tall, much taller than the average height of demons. If the gender hadn’t been revealed by the voice just now, she would have been mistaken for a male demon.
However, apart from the sound, you can still tell the gender of the other party if you look carefully: firstly, this demon’s cloak is very clean; secondly, this demon’s cloak is also embroidered with patterns— although its craftsmanship is not much different from that of Ji Huan, it looks a little different than other grey cloaks.
The sunlight radiation here is very intense, and Yefar’s demons rarely take off their cloaks. This behavior lasts for more than ten years, twenty years… or even longer.
Even if they go outside, it is difficult to get rid of the habit of wearing cloaks. Even the black-haired demon himself was very accustomed to the cloak he was wearing at the moment, and he also didn’t notice that he was much more relaxed than usual.
And Hei Dan, like all the demons here, is also gradually getting used to the cloak on his body. Lying under the big demon’s cloak on his shoulders, Hei Dan carefully observed the demon… the small patterns on the cloak.
It’s so beautiful!
While the little guy was obsessed with studying the patterns on someone’s cloak, the big black-haired demon was studying the blank resume in his hand.
Although he was assigned a lot of tasks, he didn’t know the working procedures here at all.
The best way at this time is to——
Study a previously written resume.
When he went out just now, he casually printed out a resume template and looked at it as he walked. Now, he almost knew everything about the test items. The next thing he needs to know is the testing standards.
There are many units on the resume template, probably formulated by the old demon himself. They have nothing to do with outside units, and it is difficult to understand for a while.
“Let’s do a strength test first.” Just when the black-haired demon was thinking about how to find out the test method, the other party spoke first.
“I was able to lift three fragments of the golden fighting platform last time, and my strength was judged to be three stones. This time I want to try the green stones.”
It turned out that the other party originally came back to test whether she had made any progress. It was quite lucky to meet such a clear-headed demon— the black-haired demon thought expressionlessly.
Then he walked with the other party to the area where the stones for testing strength were placed.
The black-haired demon picked up a golden fighting platform and weighed it casually, then he had a good idea of the so-called “strength of one stone”.
Then he lifted the green stone next to him.
There were probably five golden stones on top— he estimated in his heart and gradually understood the old demon’s testing standards.
The black-haired demon swayed the green stone in his hands as if it were a small pebble, but it was a little bigger. He lifted the weight with ease and looked extremely relaxed.
Staring at the stone in the hand of the black-haired demon, the female demon next to him said with a hint of envy:
“This is the fecal fossil of a monster… from the famous hunting place Aputo, right? I heard that there are five gold pieces on top, and you seem to be able to lift it easily. I really hope I can lift it up soon…”
The black-haired demon could no longer hear her next words.
Only her first words….
“Fecal…fossil?” The black-haired demon’s hand holding the green stone suddenly froze, and a hesitant male voice came from under the cloak.
“Yes, isn’t this the testing stone that the boss bought from outside when he went on a business trip a while ago? I heard that it’s from Aputo! I don’t know if I will have the chance to go there once in my life. If not, I at least want to touch the stone.”
“Could it be… that this one is not the fossil from Aputo?” Upon hearing that the black-haired demon didn’t seem to know the origin of the stone, the originally excited tone of the female demon became somewhat hesitant.
“No, it’s this one.” After saying that, the black-haired demon threw the green stone in his hand aside with an expressionless face.
The little demon lying on his shoulder was very envious as he looked at the stone in his hand. When he saw that the big demon had thrown the stone away, he immediately let out a slightly anxious “ah”.
“That’s poop, don’t touch it.” The black-haired demon said to him in Chinese. He seemed to have heard the lamb-horned demon say this to the little guy, and he also learned this sentence unknowingly…. it’s somewhat childish.
The little demon immediately stopped screaming, and he didn’t even glance at the stone.
Then he saw the female demon picking up the stone thrown away by the big demon.
To be precise, it is “lifting”.
Two thick claws were exposed from under the cloak. The female demon tried hard to lift the stone. It could be seen that she had exhausted all her strength and veins on her claws were bulging. However, after trying hard for about a minute, she still could not successfully lift the stone.
“You might as well try four golden stones.” At this time, the black-haired demon suggested to her.
Looking at the green stone on the ground with some regret, the female demon finally listened to the advice of the other party. This time, she succeeded.
Then the black-haired demon filled in the words “4 stones” in the resume template.
“However, it’s not a pity. I have already touched the fecal fossil of the monster from Aputo.” The female demon didn’t stay depressed for too long, and she quickly cheered up.
Ah Jin: “…”
Hei Dan: “…”
“Next, let’s test your speed.” The black-haired demon shifted the topic away from the stone.
The female demon nodded, and the two demons started the next test.
The next was the speed test, and the venue was still the same. After setting a starting point, the female demon began to run around the yard as fast as she could.
Although her speed was very fast, in the eyes of the black-haired demon with excellent dynamic vision, she was just foolishly running around in circles.
In the materially poor Yefar, the method of testing demons’ abilities is very basic and primitive.
Despite the existence of various high-end testing tools out there, the testing method in Yefar is still the simplest one from thousands of years ago.
Lift stones, run in circles, listen to distant sounds…
If the demons outside saw this scene, they would definitely laugh on the spot.
They would mock how foolish these demons looked like when testing their abilities.
However–
At this moment, the demon being tested was running desperately, showing her fastest speed to the black-haired demon in the center of the field.
Her speed is actually very fast. If it were to be tested outside, it would definitely be a result that would shock the testing center.
But right now, she was just running on the uneven ground in a dilapidated yard, using the simplest tools.
Sweating profusely.
The black-haired demon stood in the center of the field, looking at the water droplets in the air in a daze.
Yefar has no rain, it is the sweat of the demon who is running hard.
Over the years, the demons in Yefar have emerged step by step like this.
They live in one of the filthiest and most chaotic places in the world, eating the worst food, preying on the world’s most cunning demons, and doing jobs that most demons disdain…
Just like this, step by step, they slowly grow up.
Looking at the demon running hard in front of him, the black-haired demon’s gaze seemed to have traveled through hundreds of years. From afar, he seemed to see the two little demons that had once run here.
One with black hair, while the other with red hair.
He could almost hear their happy laughter…
Until the female demon panted and interrupted his thoughts, reminding him that she had already finished running.
Mr. Firzaha, who was on duty for the first time, was very lucky: the first customer he received was this female demon. She was very familiar with all the tests in the testing area, and he talked to her intentionally or unintentionally. After completing a complete set of tests, she didn’t even notice that the person under the cloak was a novice.
“Then, I’ll come over tomorrow afternoon to pick up my resume.” Look, the female demon also accidentally mentioned the rules for processing test results and making resumes.
“Okay.”
The female demon was about to leave, but before leaving, she suddenly paused and then took out a purse from her pocket.
The purse was embroidered with the same pattern as the cloak.
She took out ten bone coins from her purse and handed them to the black-haired demon opposite: “The cost of this resume.”
However, she didn’t leave immediately and hesitated for a moment before taking out a few more bone coins from her purse for a while: “This is a tip. It’s kind of..”
She paused, as if thinking of a suitable word: “Thank you.”
“I found a job using my last resume, but… when I took the pre-employment training class … you mentioned the employer’s credit to me… Is that the right word? In short, the employer’s credit rating was not good, and the disappearance rate of employees there was also very high, so I didn’t go. Another demon I knew didn’t listen and went, and there has been no news about him since then.”
“Anyway, thank you very much.” Seeing that the black-haired demon refused to accept it, she finally forced the bone coins into his hand.
Finally, she added another sentence: “When I find a new job, I will come over to supplement the credit information of the new workplace.” After saying this, she left.
Mr. Firzaha received a tip for the second time.
“Credit rating?” Hearing the word that was both familiar and unfamiliar, he realized that something new seemed to have been added to this seemingly unchanging place. Is it Ji Huan? What has Ji Huan done here?
How could the demons here pay a tip as a thank you?
But he soon learned what Ji Huan had done.
When Mr. Firzaha received the fifth customer of the day, a loud roar suddenly came from the door.
A minute later, a powerful magic pressure surrounded the entire testing area, and a group of powerful demons appeared at the entrance in a fierce manner.
