"Boss, who is this young lady?" another thick-skinned lady asked and everyone silently applauded her shamelessness.
Alayna didn’t feel bothered by this question and decided to introduce the new member since they will be seeing her more in the future.
She looked at the crowd with a smile, "she is now part of the shop’s staff. If you need some help then you can ask her."
After saying that she opened the doors and walked inside. The shop was sparkling clean so there was no need to do any cleaning. Elena stood at the door and began her job since Alayna already told her about it.
Alayna locked herself in the small office and began to accept money. At lunch, Alayna posted a hiring advert and it was aimed at men this time. When the men saw this, they were so happy that they decided to remain and get interviewed.
The excitement of the crowd was so intense and everyone began to anticipate to see who will get lucky. Alayna didn’t want anyone very complicated; she aimed to find someone who truly needs help and someone whom she can trust.
The person didn’t need to be very strong but he just needs to be someone that she likes. So, when Elena brought the list of the men that had signed up for the interview, she was shocked.

Several people were very strong and it just surprised her a lot. After closing the shop, the interviews began and Alayna didn’t promise anyone anything and simply let everyone leave after the interviews.
Every single interview took less than five minutes and after two long hours, she was finally done. She dragged her tired body back to her house and all she wanted to do was just sleep.
Elena had already learnt how to use the stove, so she cooked since Alayna was busy.
The next day, Alayna announced the person who had received the job and everyone was very shocked.
Another cultivator who was a martial disciple couldn’t help but find this answer so absurd that he called out and demanded answers, "why did you pick such a weak person? Some so many powerful people can do the job!"
Most of the people who had got rejected also found this question plausible and they wanted answers as well.
[Yes, why did she choose him?]
[I wonder, did she receive any benefits from him?]
Alayna was a bit angry when she heard this but since they wanted answers, she was going to give them some although she wasn’t entitled to them.
"What I want is someone who is taking this job seriously, someone with a passion and not someone with some malicious motives. I know that many of you are planning and scheming of trying to take this shop from me but I should tell you in advance that you won’t only suffer the lightning baptism but something much worse if you try.
The person I picked despite being weak, I can see his love and passion for this place. And for that, I will pick him. I don’t mean at the same time that all of you have malicious intentions, it’s just that at the moment I can’t afford all of you but maybe in the future, I will definitely do hire a few more people," she flatly said before entering the shop.
The person who had been chosen just happened to be James, the hunter who was Alayna’s first customer. Him being her first customer wasn’t the reason why she picked him, it’s just that she had seen how much worship and adoration that was in his eyes and he was someone who will not bring or cause any harm to the shop.
The people didn’t accept this at all but there was nothing that they could do to change it. Someone was even more daring and tried to cause some trouble and over fifty people witnessed the man turn into a dark being after being zapped by lightning.
Another person finally tasted the popular zapping and all those who wanted to cause trouble shut their mouth and behaved. Elena couldn’t help but be amazed by this scene, for the first time after coming to the Dark Forest, she felt fear.
Alayna soon forgot about all the ruckus as she collected the money and the spirit stones with a happy smile on her face.
James was very excited to have been chosen, his luck had been improving greatly. Although he wasn’t a martial disciple, his cultivation was a lot better than before.
He didn’t lack money as before and he had recently bought a few pieces of farmland. As a hunter he rarely farmed but grains were very crucial and he didn’t want to struggle in the future.
He couldn’t keep on buying grains every time. And with that woman gone, he wanted to live a better life and make her regret ever abandoning him when he was in need.
His next goal was to build a better house and this requires a lot of money. He wanted a better job and working for the rich as a guard was also good, but when he thought of how he wouldn’t be able to freely come here and buy the food that has helped him, he was truly unwilling to leave.
And when he was busy contemplating what he can do, Alayna posted the job advertisement. Seeing this, he was very excited that he also applied. Although he was afraid that his cultivation was low, there was also a 50% chance that he may succeed.
Being positive was a good trait and even if he didn’t get the job, he would still wait for another chance in the future when his cultivation is slightly higher than before.
And without him expecting it, he was chosen and this was great news. He was so thrilled and so thankful he shed tears of joy.
Seeing the lady boss defending him, he was so touched that he vowed that he will be loyal even in death and follow his boss.
