"Tsk tsk tsk, looks like it's been resolved. You swordsmen who only know breathing techniques are just making a fuss over nothing. You had to ask for reinforcements for such a small matter. Now you've made me run around for nothing. How are you going to compensate me?" The man shouted as soon as he entered the room and saw the gecko and the doctor lying in a pool of blood not far away.

"I'm saying, those two kagune are pretty good, why don't you use them to compensate me?"

These words made Chen Fang raise an eyebrow, wondering how someone could be so shameless.

"Does this belong to your disciplinary team?"

Chen Fang pointed to the gecko corpse on the ground and turned to Shinobu Kocho to ask.

“You killed him, and I didn’t contribute a single bit of effort, so it’s only right that it belongs to you.” Shinobu Kocho sheathed her rapier, put her hands behind her back, and leaned her body slightly forward as she spoke.

"That's good."

At the entrance, one of Shinobu's loyal subordinates immediately spoke up, "You didn't participate in the battle, why should we give it to you? Even according to the regulations of the disciplinary squad, there is no provision for demanding compensation!"

A teammate next to Mikami Ume handed him a white briefcase. The briefcase quickly changed in Mikami Ume's hands, and the next moment, a tentacle tens of meters long shot out from the briefcase.

It's Quink.

It's a quinque made from the kagune of at least an S-rank ghoul.

P.S.: Waaaaah, thank you so much for the votes, Yu Yu Yu! Love you, Qiu Mi.

Chapter 42 Shinobu's Request

Chen Fang realized that this guy was here to steal the spoils of war.

However, this is an internal matter of the disciplinary team and has nothing to do with Chen Fang.

"Um, this is my first time doing something like this. Could you help me deal with this kagune? How do I handle this thing?" Chen Fang ignored the commotion at the door and asked Shinobu Kocho.

“You can take it to the disciplinary squad. They have top-notch quinque makers there. Yamori is an S-class ghoul, so his kagune can definitely be used to create incredibly powerful weapons,” Shinobu Kocho said. “So, do you want me to help you with that?”

"May I?"

"Of course I have to accept the reward. Three million Japanese yen, that's the internal rate for the disciplinary team. Consider it repaying a favor. I also want to thank you for your timely assistance this time, otherwise I might have died here." Shinobu Kocho said.

Although I don't know the market price, it certainly won't be just three million Neon Coins.

At the warehouse entrance, Mikami Umebe waved the Quinque in his hand.

It swung directly at the two nearest Kocho Shinobu subordinates.

Shinobu Kocho raised an eyebrow slightly.

Even if the opponent possesses an S-class Quinque, they might not be her match.

After all, besides superpowers, there's also the power of money in this world.

As a Pillar-level fighter, only a few strong individuals in the entire Disciplinary Committee can compare with her in terms of breathing techniques. She was almost killed by Yamori's sneak attack because of her carelessness (which was also due to Chen Fanghua's luck in dealing with Shinobu Kocho).

Otherwise, with her skills, she could at least have a 50/50 chance against Gecko, if not defeat him.

Once the skin is cut open, the venom on the Butterfly Ninja Blade will also kill the gecko.

Just as Mikami Umebe's Quinque was about to attack Shinobu Kocho's subordinates, Shinobu Kocho made her move.

The haori on her body swayed with Shinobu's movements, like a large fluttering moth—no, like a large butterfly, light and beautiful.

"Dance of Butterflies - Playful"

But this beautiful butterfly also has a man-eating side.

Her graceful body gently touched the more than twenty-meter-long quinque tentacles, and the light of the blades on her hands was like butterflies.

Special effects! It's special effects!

Shinobu Kocho added special effects to her breathing technique.

As the butterfly vanished like a bubble, the entire Quinque became limp and lifeless. The originally white Quinque tentacles, after being pierced by the rapier in Shinobu's hand, began to visibly lose their vitality, and the entire tentacles became extremely shriveled.

Shinobu Kocho chuckled and stood on the high ground.

"Although my strength is the weakest among the Pillars, I am still a Pillar, and yet I am looked down upon like this." Shinobu Kocho said with a light laugh, slowly sheathing her rapier.

[Target's luck begins to improve]

This was the first time Chen Fang had ever seen his luck proactively improve.

In the simulation section for Shinobu Kocho, the progress increased by one percent from the original critical point. Although it was a small increase, it was still an increase.

"Tch, let's go."

Mikami Umeme glared at Kocho Shinobu with deep resentment.

But knowing full well that there was no chance of victory at this point, he still left with his men.

"Is this how all your disciplinary squads are?"

“No, only part of it is like that.” Shinobu Kocho shook her head, a hint of helplessness in her eyes. Where there is light, there is darkness. The disciplinary squad has existed in this world for hundreds of years, and the problems that have arisen during that time are countless. Even if there are some 'righteous' people in the disciplinary squad, it is all in vain.

The disciplinary team is already rotten to the core.

There's even an organization called Night Raid, which is secretly hunting down the financial backers and high-ranking officials behind the disciplinary teams.

"Back to the previous question, Mr. Chen Fang, may I ask which basic breathing technique your breathing method is derived from?" Shinobu Kocho asked again.

"It is a derivative of water breathing and a further derivative of flower breathing," Chen Fang truthfully reported.

He figured out that Shinobu Kocho probably came to ask because she saw that Chen Fang's First Form was very similar to the original Insect Breathing First Form.

Chen Fang naturally wouldn't hide the fact that he obtained this method from Shinobu Kocho.

If Shinobu Kocho wants to learn from Chen Fang, Chen Fang will not hesitate to ask. Doing so will also help improve Shinobu Kocho's luck. Improved luck means more opportunities for simulation, and Chen Fang's strength will also become stronger.

really,

Shinobu Kocho also showed a surprised expression after hearing Chen Fang's reply. The derivative of Flower Breathing, isn't that the same as her Insect Breathing? No wonder there are so many similarities in the First Form.

After her initial shock, Shinobu immediately pleaded with Chen Fang, "Mr. Chen Fang! Please teach me the breathing technique!"

Shinobu Kocho would never have asked for instruction in any other breathing technique, but Chen Fang's was different. Judging from the strength Chen Fang had just displayed, his breathing technique was at least at the level of a Pillar-level expert. Add to that his mastery of magic, and someone like him could definitely make her stronger!

Chapter 43 Please Help Me Make Money! (Butterfly-san)

Shinobu Kocho has an extraordinary obsession with becoming stronger.

If I had to give a reason, it would probably be to surpass her older sister, Kanae Kocho. As the Butterfly Pillar, her sister was not only incredibly strong but also extremely gentle and virtuous. Shinobu Kocho's gentle demeanor was an imitation of her sister Kanae's behavior.

Seeing that Chen Fang hadn't replied to her message for a long time, Shinobu Kocho raised her head and looked at Chen Fang's expression: "Is it okay?"

Chen Fang pinched his chin, pretending to be deep in thought, and said, "Can you cook?"

"It's alright, for now."

"That's good. As payment for teaching you breathing techniques, you'll need to be responsible for my three meals a day, okay?"

Having recently gotten used to eating at other people's homes, Chen Fang has become too lazy to cook for himself.

No matter how good or bad it tastes, what others make is always better than what you make yourself.

Shinobu Kocho really started to think about it carefully.

"Is it that simple?"

"Well, if you really feel bad about it, then help me turn that kagune into a quinque."

"Ok!"

Shinobu Kocho said without hesitation, and her words immediately filled Chen Fang with a strange feeling.

Is it too little?

Although it seemed a bit abrupt, Chen Fang couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked, "Butterfly-san, how much is your monthly salary in the disciplinary squad?"

Shinobu Kocho smiled and asked, "What's wrong, Mr. Chen Fang? Are you going to join the disciplinary squad?"

No, I have no such plans.

"Hmm, if you don't take on missions, the monthly salary is one million yen. How about that? Aren't you a little tempted?" Shinobu Kocho said.

One million yen, one-fifth of Chen Fang's monthly royalties. This is just Chen Fang's royalties, not including the copyright fees for the adapted Imperial Uncle game and anime. But thinking about it this way, Chen Fang felt better. If every superhuman could make money, then Rin Tohsaka wouldn't be in this situation now, having even mortgaged her ancestral home.

"No, on the contrary, I'm already certain that I won't join the picket line."

"Oh, what a pity," Shinobu Kocho said, but in her heart she felt it was perfectly normal. How could a descendant of a mysterious side family like Chen Fang value a disciplinary team like the Loose Clan Alliance? "But the stipend for each mission is quite high, of course, it's only for internal use."

How many are there?

"The allowance for this mission alone is five million Japanese yen. If it's a higher-level mission, the allowance will be even higher," Shinobu Kocho said. Although the allowance for each mission is very high, it is also accompanied by a high mortality rate.

The mission allowance is not something one person can keep all to themselves. For example, Shinobu brought so many subordinates this time, so the allowance has to be distributed among them. Otherwise, who would follow you on missions and have to listen to you and do whatever you say?

But Shinobu Kocho will definitely still take the lion's share.

Upon hearing Shinobu Kocho's words, Chen Fang perked up completely; one mission could be worth a month's worth of his royalties.

With 30 days a month, that's 150 million Neon Coins. In just one year, Chen Fang can achieve his ultimate goal: earn 1 billion Neon Coins and then retire peacefully!

It seems that retiring at twenty was too conservative before.
