Chapter 297: The Witch and The Ash-Covered Bride (7)
It didn’t take long for the cinder-covered girl to finish all her household chores and return to where the witch was.
“Thanks to Miss Adelaide, we finished incredibly quickly.”
The girl’s praise wasn’t empty words.
The golden-haired girl with a sun-like atmosphere didn’t seem particularly skilled at household chores, but instead, she learned things incredibly fast.
For tasks like mopping or sweeping, she would start by crudely using just strength, but once shown a few tricks about posture or how to hold the tools, she quickly became proficient. Even tasks requiring dexterity and calmness like sewing, she managed without much difficulty.
Even the task of drawing water from the well and bringing it to the house, which would have been hard labor taking quite a while when the girl did it alone, was possible to finish in just ten minutes without breaking a sweat when Adelaide helped.
The cinder-covered girl’s eyes shone.
“Unlike your appearance, you seem incredibly strong. Is that also the witch’s magic?”
“Hmm, strictly speaking, it’s not the witch’s magic, but the effect of this belt. Ah, but since I borrowed the belt from the witch, in that sense, it is the witch’s power.”
Adelaide’s words weren’t a lie, but they weren’t exactly conveying the accurate truth, either.
The current little lion was capable of lifting the carriage they usually rode in whole, without any assistance from the belt and without any mana-based enhancement. Honestly, this level of labor didn’t even count as exercise for Adelaide.
“Wow.”
