Cinderella

Cinderella is an important object in **Jungle Juice (Webtoon)**. It is a shining turquoise & deep blue, liquid created by NEST. It allows insect humans to turn back into normal human once more when ingested.

## Background

The creation of Cinderella is somewhat muddled but, it seems that the first verison was created by Carly Davidson as a means to help reverse the effects of Jungle Juice that affected his daughter. It is also seems that it was named Cinderella based on the daughter's favorite fairy tale.

Then somehow, NEST was able to know the instructions and mass produced their version of Cinderella. After their success, the object became sought after by those that want to be human again. It then became a part of the education system in NEST where they explain that those that are students has a chance to acquire it if they become valedictorian and doing well of their education. Through the times, production gradually decrease as Jungle Juice became more difficult to find.

In addition, the original Cinderella that Carly created was used by MASK. It was the template in help creating June Bug.

## Description

A deep blue liquid serum. It is created by applying the same principle of Jungle Juice to itself; a sort of reengineering. Many of aspects/strands that is involved are: chromatid, RNA interference, and Strand Separation. In short, it can decompose insect DNA in the infected human body, thus rendering the infected human to be normal again. It was shown that when an insect human drank it, shining aura surround the human. Then the insect characteristics disappears like magic.
