Voyage Of The Villainess

"Welcome,  Sir!" Jennie, a brunette girl wearing casual maid attire, went to their customer who just arrived. "Here is the list of our menu. Please call me, if you have decided on your order."

The new customer, a man with a long chin peered at Jennie with a lecherous gaze. "Sure!" He said as he received the menu. And gave her a sickening smile. Jennie just smiled back but hers was the smile of a server to a customer and nothing else.

When she turned around, "Ah!" She yelped when the man suddenly touched her butt. 

Fuming with rage, she turned back towards the man. "You!" But the man just gave him a confused look.

"How dare you touch my..." Jennie froze when she realized what she was going to say next. No matter what, if she continued her words, this could certainly ruin her reputation since now that she was in marriageable age. Her parents always told her that she shouldn't let herself be touched by other men or else it could ruin her image.

"What did I touch?" The man said with a sly smile already forming on his face. "You! you..." Jennie clenched her fist, conflicted on what to do. The other people in the restaurant were already starting to notice them which added to the pressure and frustration she was feeling right now.

"You stinks..." A monotone cold voice resounded. 

*Splash!* And the next thing Jennie knew someone splashed a hot coffee to the head of the man.

"Ahhhh!" The man stood up as he touched his head. "Ouch! Ouch! The f*ck did..." When he turned around, a crisped and sharp punch landed squarely on his face. He instantly fell to the ground, stumbling to the next table.

"Arghh!" The man clutched his nose that was bleeding. "Sl*t! You're going to pay for this!" He said as he tried to stand up once again but Iris beat him first by sending a hard kick to his stomach.

"Ah!" He cough up blood as he was sent him flying a meter away from her.

The other people in the restaurant began to scurry away outside while the others continued to stay to watch the scene unfolding.

Jennie was surprised by this scene. Her sight was fixated on the new girl in front of her with orangey hair. She was wearing the same maid uniform as hers. She was the new staff that was hired just a few days ago.

'Iris...' Her expression held both admiration to Iris' actions and satisfaction seeing the man knocked out on the ground with his nose bleeding and other bruises.

"People like you disgust me." Iris' gaze intensified as she walked closer to the man. 

"What commotion is this?!" 

Jennie froze again when she heard the angry scream of their boss. 

"Tsk." Iris clicked her tongue as she faced the fuming boss that was heading now in their direction. 

---⚓⚓⚓---

"How many times did I tell you to not cause trouble for our customer?! "

"His face makes me puke so I just do him the favor and fix it."

In a certain staff room in the restaurant, two women could be seen. One was fuming with anger while the other one was just standing nonchalantly with a bored face.

"You!" Iris' boss' wrinkled face twisted to a more horrible state. "You just started to work here a few days ago and I couldn't count anymore, how many times you do this!"

"It's only four times. How could you not count that? Are you that stupid?" Iris simply remarked but it finally snapped something out of her boss. 

"You're fired!" The lady boss finally said in the end.

"Took you long enough to say," Iris said as she walked past the boss. Before she completely left the room, she picked up a box of food on the table near the door. "I'll just have this as my salary for my work here. Bye!" Iris said as she waved the small box.

"Don't ever come back here!" The middle-aged woman screamed with rage.

"This place has a sh*tty food anyways. And I hope you are finally able to get married to lessen your grumpiness." Iris' last remark. And before her ex-boss could refute she closed the door with a bang. 

Jessie watched as Iris made her way out of the staff room. 'What happened to her? I hope it's not that bad. I haven't thanked her yet for what she did for me!' As she approached Iris, she was startled when a white monkey jumped out of nowhere and landed on Iris' shoulders.

"Ah. It seems I lost my job again," Iris said to the monkey as she poked it. "Let's get out of here now."

"She got fired!" Jennie's eyes widened in shock. "This can't be!"

"Iris! Wait!" When she called her, Iris was no longer there. Instead, outside there was now an endless sea of people walking around.

"What have I done?" A pang of guilt burst inside Jennie. "This is all my fault."

---⚓⚓⚓---

Iris glanced back when she heard someone call her, but there was no one there but only people busy with their own lives in the street. She continued to walk around until she finally stopped in front of the stall.

"Why are you here? I thought, you already found a job at Taleba?" 

"I finally found her, gramps." The voice of a young man replied merrily to the old one.

When Iris glanced at them, she saw a man with a dark brown hair covered with bandages. And in his arms, he was carrying someone in a bridal carry style. Based on the clothes, the one he was carrying was probably a woman.

"Nesha!" The old man said in disbelief as he saw the face of whoever the guy was carrying.

Iris couldn't wait anymore to finish their talk. "Gramps," she called out which earned the attention of the two. As the man covered with bandages turned towards her, Iris' almond eyes squirmed when she saw the face of the girl he was carrying.

"Let's talk about this matter later on. Let her rest for a while." The old man said as he lent a key from his pocket towards the young man.

The young man simply nodded his head as he walked out of the stall.

"Iris! You came earlier today." The old man finally turned towards her. 

"Got fired." Iris simply remarked. 

The old man shook his head. "Again? That was already the fifth time now."

"Well, those jobs don't suit my taste anyways."

"You're still new here. If you keep acting like that, you'll never be able to have a permanent job."

"U-u-a-ahhh!" The old man patted the white monkey that landed on the table in front of him. "And if I knew that you are this broke, I should have definitely given you back that pouch of gold coins."

"Then give it back to me, it's not that too late for that."

"Hahaha, relax. I'm just messing with you a little." The old man stifled with nervous laughter. "You'll take the usual food for him right?" 

"Yeah," Iris answered as she went around looking at the other animals caged in the shop of the old man. While the old man went to get the thing Iris always bought at his shop. 

After a while of waiting...

"Here it is," 

Iris glanced up as the old man stood in front of her. She received the paper bag containing the food for her monkey.

The white monkey jumped right away to her shoulders and Iris brought out one piece to give to the monkey. The white monkey started to munch the red berry Iris gave him.

"By the way, who's that guy earlier?"

"Ah, him? That's my brother." The old man replied with a gentle expression on his face.

'Brother? He seems too young to be this old man's brother.' 

"Ah. I see," Iris simply replied. "It seems he has a problem with his wife. I hope he is alright." Iris started to walk away.

"Oh that. That seems the case haha." The old man said as he laugh wryly.

"Gotta go now." She said as she flicked a copper coin to the old man which he was able to catch swiftly.

"See you again!" The old said as he watched the retreating back of Iris.

Iris simply waved the back of her hands.
