What?! My anime figures have all come true!

Despite her aggressive nature, Misaki Shokuhou is actually quite fragile with high attack but low defense. She was so overwhelmed by the kiss that she didn't even bother to wipe the drool from her lips afterward, and then plopped down on the sofa.

He even had a blissful expression on his face that said, "I have no regrets about my life."

This also just happens to be the price paid for borrowing that ability.

"I feel like I'm going to be corrupted by you guys sooner or later."

Chen Xiao wiped his mouth.

If this continues, I'm afraid I won't even blush or feel my heart race when my own sister forcibly kisses me in the future; I might even retaliate as if it were perfectly natural.

That would truly make him the ultimate Great Silver Demon! (Sad)

"Phew... and then it's my turn! Ah Xiao, please, close your eyes."

Then it was time to pay the price to Inoue Orihime.

Whether it was because she hadn't used her abilities much or because her offensive capabilities weren't strong, Chen Xiao, with his eyes closed, only felt the warm touch on his cheek vanish in an instant, like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Then, when I opened my eyes, I saw Inoue Orihime covering her bright red face and running back to her bedroom as if fleeing in panic.

"It seems Orihime is quite innocent."

Chen Xiao was unsure whether to feel fortunate or regretful.

If every female figurine were like Alice the Black Maid or Misaki Shokuhou, relentlessly attacking without any regard for gender differences, my own moral compass would probably plummet to the level of "a life of debauchery."

Although Chen Xiao doesn't mind making rice cakes with anime girls.

But with so many figurines at home, I have to decide who to give the first one to.

For example, if Shiina Mahiru has already taken his first kiss, and if she were to continue taking his virginity, Chen Xiao could easily imagine the chaos and bloodshed that would ensue with the high-end, physical figurines in the future.

We need at least one girl who can convince all the figurines.

"Master, please turn around."

At this moment, Kalifa, who still had a small portion of the price to pay, spoke up and beckoned Chen Xiao to turn around.

Immediately afterwards, a fragrant breeze landed on Chen Xiao's face.

"Thank you for giving me a new life."

After saying that, Kalifa walked briskly back to her bedroom, reverting to her figure form and returning to the display case labeled "One Piece".

In the original CP9, the agents who infiltrated Water 7, except for Rob Lucci, probably all yearned for a peaceful life to some extent.

Even when the long-nosed one (Kaku) received his dismissal "notice," the image that flashed through his mind was of himself "soaring" freely in Water Seven, and Barry's heartfelt words.

What impressed Chen Xiao the most was a scene in the cover of the manga where the CP9 members were feared by people because they had been too ruthless when they defeated the Candy Pirates. Only one little girl came up to them and gave them a flower.

At that moment, everyone else in Water Seven who had never infiltrated looked flustered, clearly having never experienced being thanked before. Only Kalifa smiled and accepted the flower.

Unfortunately, as the world government's black gloves, they were bound to the identity of "assassins" for their entire lives and could never escape.

But there is no world government here!

Kalifa, who was brought to life as a figure, has absolutely nothing to do with being an assassin, except for her assassin skills which are based on the character's backstory.

She can be whoever she wants to be.

Therefore, even though she didn't make any overt moves, her affection for Chen Xiao was off the charts.

Finally, there's Jack from FGO and Reimu Hakurei from Gensokyo.

Chen Xiao only borrowed one basic attack (Demon Sealing Needle) from the latter, while the former activated the Information Erasure skill; neither of them borrowed the full power.

Therefore, he thought that the payment of this cost might have to be accumulated and paid to the two of them later.

As soon as Inoue Orihime and Kalifa returned to their bedroom, a girl with a large bow and wearing a shrine maiden outfit that exposed her armpits came out and opened her arms to Chen Xiao.

"A sincere offer of 50 yuan."

What a simple and easy-to-understand price to pay...

Reimu Hakurei: Please give me money!

"I thought you were going to ask for 100,000 yen, Reimu."

Chen Xiao actually took out a banknote from his pocket.

In this era of highly developed online payment, he carried paper money purely as a precaution, never expecting it would end up in his sister's possession.

"100,000 is the level of 'use it for a lifetime,' what we're offering now is just a basic service for 50 yuan."

Reimu Hakurei put her hands on her hips and said confidently.

"Basic service?"

While Chen Xiao was still recalling what the 50 yuan service was in the fanfiction of "Ten Thousand Witches" from his previous life, Reimu Hakurei, who had just received the bill, suddenly stepped forward and lightly touched his lips.

"This is it!"

Wow...which version of Reimu Hakurei is this?

She's so good at flirting!

It would be even better if they weren't greedy for money.

"By the way, Reimu, given your power level, how did you manage to materialize it?"

Unlike Black Rock Shooter, who can unleash 100% power because she was the first to get the soup, Reimu Hakurei, as one of Gensokyo's top combatants, should theoretically deplete her mana bar quickly once she materializes, and then turn back into a figure in no time.

"It seems the requirement to pay a price exempted me from the materialization costs, right? Hmm... I ran out of time right after completing the payment! That's all! See you next time, Xiao!"

Halfway through her sentence, Reimu Hakurei's body began to show signs of becoming ethereal, and she hurriedly ran back to her bedroom.

"So it has this effect too."

Upon seeing this, Chen Xiao gained a deeper understanding of his own superpowers.

Paying the cost of borrowing power has a slightly higher priority than the mana bar required for materialization. However, once the cost is paid, the mana bar for materialization will return to its original state, or even faster.

"Mother!"

A short while later, the last girl who had to pay the price came out.

A Servant from the Type-Moon universe—Jack the Ripper.

"It's Little Jack..."

Although there was a slight issue with how she addressed him, Chen Xiao felt his heart melt at how well-behaved and adorable Little Jack was, and he didn't care what she called him.

As for the price she paid, it was naturally different from the previous ones.

Little Jack only asked that Chen Xiao hold her like a mother and then sit on the sofa to watch TV for a while.

Faced with such a simple request, Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't refuse.

But when little Jack actually sat in his lap, Chen Xiao was a little at a loss.

Why is this little guy moving around so much in my arms?

…………

Meanwhile, in the bedroom's huge display case, inside the window marked [Gensokyo], the Yakumo Yukari figure quietly moved next to Reimu, who had transformed back into a figure.

"Hey~ Little Reimu, it seems like you won't really need this money, will you?"

"Tch! Can't it be used in the future? I'll return it to Xiao if she needs it, anyway, it's all his stuff... Hmph! But! Once I've accumulated enough of these 'donation money,' that's when I'll take the initiative!"

Clutching the shrunken fifty yen in her hand, Reimu Hakurei couldn't help but fantasize that all the other figures in the future would be invited out on dates by Chen Xiao, while she herself would be the one paying to invite Chen Xiao!

This is a completely different matter!

Yukari Yakumo: ...

Little Reimu, your wish is probably going to be hard to come true.

Putting aside other people, how can you compete with all those "rich women" in Azur Lane with your slowly accumulated funds?

However, given Chen Xiao's personality, he probably doesn't care about the amount of money at all.

Even if Reimu invited him with a one-dollar coin, he wouldn't refuse, would he?
