Miss Witch, even if we're poor, we can't sell ourselves!

When Mi Ye woke up, the morning light was streaming in through the French windows of Gu Ling. She had forgotten to close the curtains last night, otherwise she probably could have slept until noon.

Rubbing her eyes, she sat up in bed, her short, light blonde hair sticking up in a mess, with a tuft standing straight up on top of her head, swaying back and forth.

She yawned and glanced at the sofa in the office area outside.

Xingjie was still curled up on that long sofa, her dark blue hair loose, one leg dangling over the edge of the sofa, and a slipper still hanging on her ankle.

Miya didn't intend to wake her. She simply folded the blankets and straightened the pillows, then took out the Moon Forest school uniform she had changed out of yesterday from her backpack, put on a light gray cotton coat, wrapped the scarf around her neck twice, and then put on the fluffy cat-ear hat.

After changing, she looked at herself in the small mirror in the rest room, making sure she had returned to her original self, Miya, before tiptoeing to push open the studio door, gently closing it, and walking into the corridor.

A petite figure was reflected in the elevator mirror. A few strands of light golden hair peeked out from under the cat-ear hat, and a scarf covered her chin, revealing only a pair of honey-colored eyes.

Compared to the fox-faced girl in pink ancient costume and fox mask under the moonlight last night, she was completely different.

Miya pulled at the edge of her scarf in front of the mirror, thinking that she shouldn't attract too much attention walking down the street like this.

……

Gu Ling's mornings were a completely different world from the Moon Forest she was familiar with.

In the Moon Forest, at nine o'clock in the morning, the scene should be like this: steaming soy milk in the breakfast shop on the street corner, hot steam hitting your face when the steamer basket of buns is lifted, newly arrived magic journals displayed at the entrance of the bookstore, and occasionally one or two students wearing the same school uniform riding brooms low overhead.

As for Gu Ling, it's almost entirely comprised of trendy toy stores, record stores, and idol support merchandise shops. Every store's window is dazzlingly bright, but there's not a single place to eat.

Miya stood in front of the window of a trendy toy store, looking at the life-size figurines and limited-edition light sticks displayed inside, when her stomach let out a rumble.

She reached into her pocket and felt her bank card, remembering that she had 4,500 Loren left. This amount might be considered generous for an average college student, but she was studying at Moon Forest Academy, where the teaching quality was good, but the price was outrageously expensive.

Then she remembered what Corona Borealis had said: if she wanted to make a living, she would probably have to take on a few small commissions to earn some money, at least until she could exchange her popularity points for Loren in a month.

Speaking of which, prices in Guling must be much higher here too.

Never mind, let's eat back at Moon Forest. We'll take the bus back soon anyway.

Miya took out her phone and opened the Witch Association app. A semi-transparent interface popped up, with her personal information at the top.

Name: Miya.

[Level]: D

Number of completed commissions: 1

In fact, the types of commissions that D-level can accept are very limited, and the rewards are mostly between a few hundred and a thousand Loren. Higher rewards can only be obtained by C-level and above.

Even a small favor is still a favor. It's nine in the morning anyway, and I don't know what to do when I get back to school, so I might as well do a couple of simple jobs on the way to earn some extra money.

As Miya thought this, she traced the names page by page on the screen with her finger.

Most of the commissions were in the area around Moon Forest, but there were some in other places as well. When she turned to the third page, a commission message made her stop.

……

[Star Trail Academy Student Union]:

[Content of the Commission]:

The preparation for the welcome party requires several on-site assistants.

The job duties include moving stage equipment, tidying up performance costumes, and assisting with lighting adjustments.

【Require】:

Physically fit and responsible.

【remuneration】:

One hundred Loren per hour, paid daily.

[Working Hours]:

From 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

【Remark】:

Meals are provided.

……

Mi Ye thought about it for a moment. One hundred Loren per hour was already quite high, and there was no restriction on magic power level. Most importantly, meals were provided here!

She accepted the commission almost without hesitation.

The system popped up a confirmation box with a ding, indicating that the reporting location was the gymnasium next to the main gate of Xinggui Academy, and the contact person was a student council member named Asuka Kanade.

Star Track Academy—Mi Ye was no stranger to this name.

Before the start of the semester at Moon Forest Academy, Korika had talked to her about the structure of high schools in Bellavita. If Moon Forest Academy was the Mount Everest of the magical academic world, then Star Trail Academy was the Moon Forest of the idol industry.

The two schools are located in the east and west of the city, respectively, and are only half an hour apart by car, but their styles are completely different.

Most of the students at Star Trail go on to enter the idol, music, or entertainment industry after graduation. It is said that any student you pass by in the school corridor could be a minor idol with tens of thousands of fans on MikuFans.

Moreover, Miya had another concern: would she encounter Fran, whom she had ambushed the previous night, there?

But then she thought again, Star Orbit Academy is so big, how could a temporary worker who went to move things possibly run into an active idol? The probability is about the same as being hit by a meteorite while walking on the street.

So she walked confidently to the bus stop and hopped on the bus heading to Star Track Academy.
