"Lakian, since you are working at Hapipare now... You have to wear this uniform! Isn't it cool?" Sachika said excitedly.
Rakia glanced at the uniform and commented on it. "Do I really need to wear that? It looks weird to me, I'd rather wear my own clothes." He said.
Sachika walks closer to Rakia and begs him by offering, "After you finish your work, I'll pay you with money so you can buy delicious stones! How about that?" Sachika tried to persuade Rakia, who seemed lazy to do something boring.
Rakia turned to Sachika, "really?"
Sachika nodded, "Come on! It won't take long, after you finish, you can also eat delicious stones with your salary, right?"
Rakia thought about the offer for a long time before finally standing up from his seat. "Okay, but don't forget my salary."

Soon, they went to the Customer's House. The customer was an old grandmother who lived alone. Sachika thanked the grandmother for asking for her services and whispered to Rakia, "We were told to rearrange this room, and you will lift the heavy items, okay?" Sachika said while forcing Rakia to bow too.
When Rakia had just moved 1 wardrobe, He was immediately tired and lay down on the floor. Sachika panicked and immediately whispered to Rakia, who was lying on the floor, "Hey Lakian! Wake up! We're not done yet!" Sachika whispered while shaking Rakia's body
The "tired" Rakia didn't care and continued to lie down.
"Is everything okay?" The grandmother asked in confusion
"Ah, it's okay! H-he's just tired!" Sachika said. Having no other choice, Sachika cleaned up the rest.

After rearranging the Old lady's room, they went back to Hapipare. "We're back!" Sachika says, Rakia follows from behind and puts his hat on the hanger stand. Shoma was eating snacks. "Welcome back, Sachika-san, Rakia-san!" Shoma said happily. "How was your first day, Rakia-san?" Shoma asks, He is curious about Rakia's first day of work.
Rakia turned to Shoma, "Very Tiring." Rakia answers Shoma, "Oh yeah.." He thinks.
"Can I stay here until I find a new house?" Rakia asked Sachika.
"Sure! I don't see any problem if you're staying here for a while, though." She answers softly
Sachika reached her bag and pulled out an envelope containing salary for Rakia. "Anyways, Lakian. Here's your first Salary!" She says excitedly
Rakia opened the envelope and saw that the money was paper money. "You sure I could buy rocks with this paper?" Rakia asks, confused. Because in Granute's realm, they use Coins as a payment method instead of Paper money.
"It was Money in the human world, you can buy stuff with that!" Shoma Answers Rakia's Question
"...Alright then, thank you." Rakia says, with a small smile. Rakia changed his clothes and took his hat from the hanger stand, then went out.
Sachika looks at Rakia before he goes to buy rocks. "Is Granute only eating Rocks, Umashou?" Sachika asks to Shoma.
Shoma turned to Sachika, "Well... they could eat human food, but most of them would rather eat rocks because it's their daily food." Shoma Answers

Rakia bought the "perfect" rocks for him to eat from the Store
He happened to pass by a Dessert shop that was very busy selling Pudding. He also heard the conversation of customers who were queuing. "I heard from Kabuto Danshi's VTube, this Pudding is delicious!" says one of them. "Yeah, I heard about it too! I can't wait to eat it, The pudding must be really soft."
Rakia glances at the shop. "Who is Kabuto Danshi?" He thought. He walked past the customers who queuing and saw 2 brothers that just bought pudding from the store
"It looks so delicious, right nii-san?" The youngest asks his brother, "Yeah, let's get home quickly so we can eat the pudding". The oldest answers
The conversation reminded Rakia of Comel, his brother. He shook his head and walked past the shop and returned to Hapipare.
