: The Rich... Witcher

Silver coins exploded!

The clattering sound of silver coins falling instantly caught Matsushima Yukio's attention.

The fallen silver coin was only the size of a fingernail, with delicate diamond patterns rolled along its edges. The front was engraved with intricate vine patterns that formed a small four-petaled flower, the patterns so fine that even the curves of the petals were clearly visible.

The silver coins lying on the floor gleamed with a warm, silvery light under the flashing lights of the convenience store.

She recognized these specially made silver coins; they were the common currency among extraordinary individuals!

The corpse of a low-level monster can be exchanged for a silver coin in the underground supernatural market!

One silver coin could be exchanged for approximately 2 yen.

Silver coins can be exchanged for money... but money is hard to exchange for silver coins...

She was extremely sensitive to money, and in an instant she counted out 50 silver coins that had fallen to the ground!

50 pieces! !

That's... worth 100 million yen!!

100 million!!!

Matsushima Yukio's throat bobbed involuntarily.

Ryosuke Miyagi... the manager of FamilyMart convenience store... why does he have so much money?

It can drop 50 silver coins...

Perhaps his pockets were even more stuffed!

Matsushima Yukio immediately adjusted her breathing.

She had never seen so many silver coins before, at least not all at once.

His gaze secretly swept over Ryosuke Miyagi once more...

This store manager was instantly labeled as an extremely wealthy person.

[50 silver coins! The Witcher's Hunting Manual is practically a walking money-printing machine. You quickly notice the burning gaze in Yukio's eyes as she looks at the 50 silver coins on the ground. In all her years as a magical girl, Matsushima Yukio has never seen so many silver coins at once!]

At this moment, Matsushima Yukio was breathing rapidly, her magic power greatly depleted. Now, you've decided to take the initiative. If you show even the slightest indication, she definitely won't resist! "Yukio-senpai, stand in front of me, bend down and see if there are many silver coins on the ground. Why am I supporting your waist? I'm afraid you'll fall!"

[Reward: Detailed Explanation of Hand-Toothed Hand Techniques (Nothing much to say, absolutely a rare find!)]

Ryosuke Miyagi completely ignored the terrible advice from the narrator in his mind. Yukio-senpai's financial difficulties were evident from her lifestyle, and he had already labeled Yukio-senpai with a special tag—the poor magical girl.

These silver coins were not particularly special in Ryosuke Miyagi's eyes.

His attention was completely drawn to the Witcher's Hunting Manual in his hands.

This Witcher's Hunting Manual yields more than just silver coins.

The new font appears starting on the second page.

Enhancement Points: 1 point of psionic energy

—Battle (Not yet started) (Requires 3 points of psionic energy)

—Perception (Not Activated) (Requires 4 points of psionic energy)

—Survival (Not yet unlocked) (Requires 3 psionic points)

—Special (Not Activated) (Requires 10 Psionic Power)

……

Killing a low-level monster grants 1 point of psionic energy.

The manual states that psionic energy can enhance four categories, but what's in each category can only be understood by accumulating enough psionic energy to unlock them.

Snapped!

Ryosuke Miyagi closed the Witcher's Hunting Manual in his hand.

He needs to have a serious talk with Senior Yukio now, and question her as a "Demon Hunter colleague".

He didn't pick up the silver coins on the ground; his gaze was fixed on Matsushima Yukio.

"Senior Yukio, shouldn't you give me a reasonable explanation? I remember the most important rule for magical girls is not to involve ordinary people, right?"

Erasing witnesses' memories is standard practice, which ironically proves the importance of "secrecy."

Ryosuke Miyagi has firmly grasped the persona of a "veteran witcher" in both his tone and demeanor.

Your confident demeanor, coupled with the dropped silver coin, has convinced Matsushima Yukio that you are a demon hunter, and a very wealthy one at that. After all, a single silver coin can be exchanged for 2 to 3 yen or even more, and it's a common currency in the supernatural world.

You decide to confront her with this question and demand that she pay the price for disrupting your peaceful life.

No money? No money? We'll use something else to pay for it!!

Wait... how much can one silver coin be exchanged for?

3 yen? Or more!

That low-level monster provided...

150 million yen...

hiss!

An idea instantly popped into Ryosuke Miyagi's mind.

He began to consider the suggestion that the voice in his head had made earlier.

Despite lacking combat power herself, Yukio-senpai, who is short of money, possesses considerable fighting strength as a magical girl!

……

Upon hearing the question, Matsushima Yukio suddenly snapped back to reality.

She looked around in a panic.

"I...I'm sorry I'm late. If I had arrived any sooner, perhaps this wouldn't have happened."

Matsushima Yukio's pupils suddenly dilated!

as a result of……

Her gaze swept over the shelves completely destroyed by the blast, the shattered glass doors... the entire convenience store was almost 90 percent destroyed.

Suddenly, the magic power around his body began to fluctuate wildly!

Splash!

Golden light enveloped Matsushima Yukio's body. Her graceful figure flashed by, and her exaggerated magical girl armor faded, revealing her in a thin shirt.

The removal of her magical armor caused her legs to give way, and the severe depletion of her magic made her fall to the ground with a thud, her buttocks trembling slightly, making her waist appear even more slender, and her loose shirt could not hide her beautiful curves.

When the shoulders and back slump slightly, the hem of the dress outlines the gentle curve of the waist and hips.

Seemingly disregarding her image, she even slightly curled her legs while sitting on the ground, revealing the slender lines of her calves.

She frantically scratched her hair, her eyes darting around, not daring to look Miyagi Ryosuke in the eye.

"It's...it's all over..."

"With such severe damage, hiring professional 'cleaners' to restore the scene would cost at least 3 silver coins... but a low-level monster can only be sold to them for 1 silver coin..."

deficit.

A severe deficit.

This means that not only did she work for nothing, but she also had to shoulder a huge debt.

For her, who was already struggling financially, this was a devastating blow.

unless……

Matsushima Yukio's peripheral vision once again drifted uncontrollably towards the floor.

There were exactly 50 silver coins lying there.

Those are Ryosuke's spoils of war.

In her memory, the new young store manager of FamilyMart was gentle enough.

Although they only spent less than a week together, Matsushima Yukio's excellent personality left a very good impression on her.

Offering to borrow money... might salvage the situation...

She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Is it possible to say that just two silver coins can save a magical girl who went bankrupt while upholding justice?

……

She couldn't bring herself to say it.

She could owe two silver coins, and...

One silver coin can be exchanged for 2 yen, but that doesn't mean you can buy it with 2 yen.

The cleanup crew only accepted on-site payment in silver coins.

If she goes to collect silver coins to keep the shop looking the same, she will definitely lose her job.

Not having a job means she has no income...

The value of the two silver coins was instantly skyrocketed!

It far surpasses its own capabilities.

The heavy pressure of reality finally overwhelmed that little bit of pride.

A bankrupt magical girl can't afford to pay the superhuman managers to repair her convenience store... and then a brilliant idea strikes! The other party is so obsessed with money! You decide to use this as leverage to make them your sole employee!

You need a henchman, and obviously, the level 2 magical girl Matsushima Yukio is the best candidate right now!

Poor, naive, and reasonably capable.

Senior Yukio, you don't want to lose your job, right? Then work for me! I can afford it!

[Reward: 800 ways to collect debts (Senior, the 3 silver coins you borrowed yesterday have multiplied to 500 today. How are you going to repay them?)]

Ryosuke Miyagi heard the voice in his mind and instantly understood.

He can use this opportunity to hire Senior Yukio!

Let this magical girl become my helper!

Ryosuke Miyagi crouched down and picked up the silver coins from the ground one by one.

Fifty silver coins filled his palm perfectly.

A handful of silver coins! Is this the feeling of a wealthy person—a feeling of fullness and tightness in their hand?

He's holding 150 million yen...

Ryosuke Miyagi took out his wallet, poured all the silver coins into it, and put it away.

Looking at Matsushima Yukio's conflicted expression.

He didn't speak first, but stood up and looked around the messy convenience store.

"Senior Yukio, this place is a mess. You should have a way to restore it, right?"

Matsushima Yukio stammered.

"...Yes, but..."

"That's good. As long as the shop can be restored, that's fine. If the boss finds out it's turned out like this, even though it was just an accident, we'd probably have a hard time keeping our jobs when faced with an angry boss."

Under Ryosuke Miyagi's continued pressure, Yukio Matsushima struggled to her feet and stammered out a sentence.

"Um... Ryosuke-kun... there's something I'd like to discuss with you."

He naturally knew what Senior Yukio wanted to say, and this was the breakthrough he had been waiting for.

"Senior, you said I'd do anything to help you."

Hearing Ryosuke Miyagi's words, Yukio Matsushima felt a sense of relief.

"I'd like to borrow two silver coins from you. Don't worry! I'll pay you back as soon as possible! Of course, there will be interest! I'll return three silver coins to you!"

Three coins? That's too few. As someone who's taking advantage of someone's misfortune, a daily interest rate of 50% is no longer enough for you. You decide to directly ask for 200% or even more! So much that she has no choice but to borrow, but can't repay it!

[Reward: Capitalist exploitation tactics (When you need money most, I will make its value skyrocket!)]

Ryosuke Miyagi naturally took out a silver coin from his wallet, grabbed Yukio Matsushima's soft hand, and placed the silver coin on it.

"Senior Yukio, here's a silver coin as a token of my gratitude."

He then took out two more silver coins and handed them over again.

"Two are enough, Ryosuke-kun! This is too many!"

"These two silver coins are my wages for hiring you."

"A servant? But... magical girls fight for love and justice, not for personal gain..."

Looking at the three silver coins in her palm, she hesitated, gritted her teeth, and clenched the coins tightly.

"Senior, this is just the necessary funding to maintain world peace. The only difference is that someone is paying for your righteous actions, while I'm just a rich... demon hunter who likes to watch magical girls hunt monsters."

This name sounds a bit strange.

Do you like watching magical girls hunt monsters?

A wealthy...witch hunter?

Upon hearing Ryosuke Miyagi's words, Yukio Matsushima gripped the silver coin tightly.

"good!"

This is the necessary funding for maintaining world peace!

Matsushima Yukio immediately grasped the three silver coins and agreed without hesitation.

"Ryosuke-kun... it's a promise, this is an employment contract, you don't need to pay it back."

Ryosuke Miyagi nodded.

Three silver coins to get a magical girl to work for you!

This deal is a bargain no matter how you look at it!

After confirming again, feeling confident and financially secure, she immediately took out her phone and dialed the manager's number.

"Yes... a level one monster, driving a truck, caused quite a bit of damage... Yes... that's right, I'm rich!"

The words "I have money" were spoken with exceptional confidence.
