Rita grabbed Mobius, who was still trying to escape, and dragged her into the company changing room, personally helping her put on the maid outfit.
She even very thoughtfully taught her the details a maid should pay attention to.
Mobius kept telling herself in her heart that this was for the company.
She constantly reminded herself that, when the opportunity arose later, she would definitely make Hessian wear a frilly maid outfit and show it off in front of everyone in the company.
Under this kind of self-hypnosis,
she finally managed to squeeze out a maid-like smile on her face.
Rita nodded in satisfaction: "Worthy of Mobius—the maid outfit really looks good on you. Let's go find Director He now."
She pulled Mobius along, ignoring her resistance, and headed straight to Hessian's office.
Knock knock knock!
Rita knocked on the door: "Director He..."
"Come in."
Hessian's voice came through.
Rita pushed open the door. At this moment, the office wasn't occupied only by Hessian—Kiana, Raiden Mei, Bronya... a whole group of actresses were there.
Even Elysia was present. She had brought the little girl she had just signed to see Hessian.
As a result, they witnessed this delightful scene.
She immediately stood up excitedly and came over to Mobius, examining her thoroughly from inside to out, not forgetting to take out her phone to record it: "Today really is a wonderful day~ I actually get to see Mobius in a maid outfit~"
"E... Elysia?!"
Only then did Mobius snap out of her shock: "You... why are you here? And... stop it! No more photos!"
Elysia continued taking pictures of her from every angle while saying: "I saw a cute little girl and couldn't resist bringing her here to sign with us. Mobius really does look great in a maid outfit—but why isn't it a pink one? That would be even cuter."
"..."
Mobius was now on the verge of exploding.
She wanted nothing more than to rip the maid outfit off her body. The last thing she wanted was to be seen in this by Elysia.
Could it be... that man?
She glared viciously at Hessian.
Hessian decisively turned his head away and explained to the little girl who had just joined the company: "This is our company's reward system. The person who contributes the most to the company gets to wear whatever clothes they like at work."
"I see~"
The little girl named Wendy nodded.
"Hessian!!"
How could Mobius not understand?
It was this guy who had deliberately called Elysia here!
She should have realized—he knew exactly what his wife liked. How could he let her miss something like this?
This guy would do anything to make his wife happy.
Hessian looked at her with an innocent expression: "Ah? What's wrong, Mobius?"
"You... I'll remember this! Just you wait." Mobius was almost furious.
Rita interrupted: "As a maid, you can't lose your temper like that."
Mobius: "..."
She finally understood.
She understood everything.
Not just Hessian—everyone here had come specifically to see her in the maid outfit.
Otherwise, for something as simple as handing out scripts, there was no need for them all to gather here, right?
Hoo~
Hoo~
Hoo~
Mobius took deep breaths repeatedly to calm herself down.
Endure!
She had to endure.
There would definitely be a chance for revenge later.
"Ahem~"
Hessian didn't dare to push it too far either—offending Mobius too much wasn't a good idea.
He coughed a few times and changed the subject: "Perfect—we need a new character in the next episode, so Wendy, you'll play her. And here are the new scripts. Everyone, hurry and familiarize yourselves today—we start filming officially tomorrow morning."
He distributed the scripts to everyone.
Elysia naturally knew what her husband was thinking.
She also satisfactorily put away her phone and waved cheerfully at everyone with a big smile: "Then I'll go find Eden to watch the opera~ Something this fun—she'll definitely love hearing me share it~"
"Elysia!!!"
In the end, Mobius still couldn't stop Elysia.
She could only vent all her anger on Hessian.
She walked behind Hessian and placed her hands on his shoulders: "Then let me give you a shoulder massage."
Hessian was explaining the points to note in the script to everyone when he felt two hands on his shoulders. A chill enveloped him—he felt like this person could strangle him at any moment.
"N-No... that's okay."
Mobius leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Master, don't be so polite."
Hm?
Hessian hadn't even had time to savor being called "master."
Intense pain shot through his shoulders.
Good grief!
This wasn't a massage.
It was outright attempted murder.
"Well? Am I not doing it well?" Mobius asked knowingly.
Hessian's hand gripping the script crumpled it completely, yet he still forced himself to say: "The pressure... is just right."
"Pfft~"
Wendy watched the scene and couldn't hold back her laughter: "The company atmosphere really is great."
Kiana quickly added: "Right, right? I think so too. It's awesome to be in a company like this."
The others nodded in agreement.
Hessian gripped the armrest of his chair tightly with one hand and said through gritted teeth: "As long as... you like it... Tonight's stream... will start with Kiana..."
"Huh?"
Kiana panicked a bit: "But what am I supposed to say to the fans?"
Hearing it was serious business,
Mobius stopped her murderous massage technique.
Hessian let out a long breath of relief and said: "You don't need to prepare anything specific. Remember—you're just being Kiana. Even if you just play games on stream, act cute and roll around, or complain that the academy is boring and you want to sneak out for good food—that's all normal. You can even tease a little about what we're filming tomorrow, like... the three-person battle against the Herrscher."
"Oh~ I think I get it." Kiana scratched her head and said: "So basically, everyone just wants to see me, and chatting with me will make them happy?"
Hessian nodded: "Mm, that's pretty much it."
He turned to Mobius: "In a bit, announce that Kiana will be streaming tonight. Don't actually let the fans rush the crew."
Only then did Mobius remember the matter.
How could she have forgotten that?
She hurriedly ran out to handle it.
...
On a taxi less than 5 kilometers from the company.
A young man hugging a toy sword was chatting in the group: "I'm almost at the Honkai Impact 3rd crew—wait for my good news."
Just after sending the message, someone replied: "Breaking news! Kiana is streaming live tonight at 6 PM—it's the real Kiana herself!"
"Holy crap!"
The young man exclaimed in shock.
