Bab 607: Ah, I finally understand [3]

Darkness engulfed Ashton's metropolis with the passing of the twelfth hour.

"Haaa..." 

Melissa stared at the scenery outside and sighed. Her features were beautifully illuminated by the lights coming from above as she sat on a tiny stool.

"Ashton city looks a lot better at night, don't you think?"

"...Excuse me?" 

The barista in front of her was taken aback. In spite of the current time in Ashton city, Melissa's orders were absolute, and he was thus forced to work at these hours. 

"Y..yes, it indeed does look more beautiful." 

"The beauty of the lights coming from the buildings is best appreciated at night. 

They dispel the darkness brought on by the night."

"R..right."

The barista reluctantly nodded his head. 

If he had to be completely honest, right now, all he wanted was to sleep. Additionally, he found Melissa's comments to be incomprehensible, which made the situation rather uncomfortable for him.
