Poor magical girls, work for me!

Momose Sena's eyes widened, her amber pupils clearly reflecting the expressionless face of Miyagi Ryosuke as he calmly said "one gold coin".

Her arms, which were wrapped around the cushion, froze, and her entire upper body seemed to be pulled by invisible threads, unable to move.

Only her chest was heaving violently, and her slender figure was clearly visible under the oversized hoodie.

"One...one..."

The sound was stuck in my throat, and when I squeezed it out, it was extremely dry.

"gold?"

Having been a magical girl for two years, she had never seen a unit of measurement like gold coins...

Unlike her senior, Yukio Matsushima, she doesn't take it upon herself to protect peace and often takes action to deal with monsters whenever she sees them.

Aside from doing odd jobs and drawing line art, Momose Sena would never actively fight monsters unless there was a bounty.

She knew that no matter how well she controlled her power in that kind of battle, the damage to objects and the resulting area would require significant repairs and compensation. Selling monster materials might not even be enough.

It's completely a loss-making venture...

Unless there is an additional bounty.

However, with the increasing number of monsters, the official team is becoming increasingly stingy.

Even when monsters have already injured people, no one is willing to offer a bounty.

Because they always believed that some wild magical girl, shrine maiden, or other righteous person would step in.

But in reality, most of it stems from their emphasis on the so-called "process." They believe that as long as they follow the process, they will never make a mistake, and as long as they don't make a mistake, they will not bear any responsibility.

Under the pressure of this bubble economy, this phenomenon has gradually become a kind of indifference.

They never care about the lives of others; they only perform their duties while ensuring their own safety.

Process is paramount.

Momose Sena still remembers that once, a brown bear bit and dragged a person away in the forest of Sendagaya. The police had guns but did not fire them, and watched helplessly as the attacked person was dragged into the jungle.

The reason given was that shooting a bear required a license, and it wasn't until the next day that a licensed hunter arrived and went into the mountains to kill the brown bear together, with the already dead victim lying next to it.

The same principle applies to monsters; the higher the bounty, the more likely you are to make mistakes and take responsibility.

They may even have to bear the repair costs.

It would be better to let the monsters run rampant until the situation becomes serious, at which point the higher-ups could issue an order to put up a bounty.

Monster bounties began to plummet, debt collection bills piled up in the mailbox, and bills from the mother's hospital also started to accumulate.

At that moment, countless images flashed through Momose Sena's mind.

The rent that can never be paid, the line drawings that can never be finished, the odd jobs that can never be completed, and the bill that can never be filled out by the mother's sickbed...

She needs money, lots and lots of money.

A gold coin can sell for 200 million yen on the market. No, that's after it's been exchanged for silver coins and then resold.

In reality, the value of a gold coin is far more than that; it can be doubled.

400 yen!

Someone will want it at this price!

call……

Unexpected windfall...

This job will pay off a large portion of my debts!

Even the mother can be transferred to a better hospital!

In the quiet little room, Ryosuke Miyagi heard Hoshina Momose's breathing gradually becoming heavier.

Just two seconds later, a weak confirmation sound rang out.

"Are you...are you sure there's a separate reward of 1 gold coin after successfully defeating it?"

Gurgle...

The eyes on the cover of the manual are fixed on Momose Sena.

Name: Momose Sena

Occupation: Magical Girl

Level: 3 (1-50)

"Hobbies: money, watching TV, binge-watching TV series."

"I hate: bills, artwork, and work."

"Current Affection Level: 30 (Clear Affection) Note: If you can actually give her a silver coin, she will develop a phase of trust in you. If you give her a gold coin, she will not resist no matter what you do."

……

Level 3 Magical Girl!

She's even higher level than Yukio Matsushima!

"One gold coin is just the reward after defeating the monster. Senior Yukio should have told you that as my employee, you also receive 5 silver coins each month as a supplement. Although it's not much, it can alleviate your current predicament."

Ryosuke Miyagi glanced around the entire small house.

"For example, moving away from here."

Momose Sena's eyes lit up!

In addition to the separate bonuses, there's a fixed monthly income of five silver coins...

5 silver coins...

A base salary of 15 yen...

Ryosuke Miyagi opened his wallet and stuffed all the money he had earned from massaging Mrs. Mei to ward off the vengeful spirit inside.

To retrieve the silver coin stuck in the gap between the banknotes, you need to take out all the money.

A wad of cash!

With her keen eye for money, Momose Sena immediately estimated that it was worth over 20 yen.

She even saw many silver coins clinking together inside!

There were definitely no fewer than 20 silver coins inside...

Are all witchers this rich?!

If they were just talking the talk before, now they've really shown their strength!

Completely unaware of this, Ryosuke Miyagi pulled out five silver coins.

It was placed on the floor, and the finger was pushed forward.

"These are the advance payment for this month's commission. You can prepare to act together tonight."

Momose Sena gritted her teeth.

"Is it really just a job?"

She had heard of people with unusual hobbies, especially those who were extremely obsessed with magical girls.

In this situation, it actually fits together somewhat.

They like to throw money at people.

Although the other party was gentle and didn't try to seduce me with money.

But this feeling...

So cool!

Momose Sena looked again at Miyagi Ryosuke's young and handsome face.

The favorability rating skyrocketed.

*Gurgle*

My eyes were once again fixed on Momose Sena.

The favorability rating jumped to 35.

and many more……

Ryosuke Miyagi seemed to realize that something was wrong.

Something's off about this Witcher's Handbook.

After the favorability rating was refreshed, they deliberately showed it to me again.

"Current Affection Level: 35 (Affection is slightly strong) Note: I am impressed by your wealth and generosity. Compared to those men who only talk the talk, a handsome boss who is willing to pay wages in advance has greatly increased the magical girl's affection."

The way she looks at you is starting to change! A quiet environment, a confined space, a magical girl with somewhat unfocused eyes.

What did you feed her? Why does she feel so warm? Turns out you were just showing off your "wealth."

[Reward: Money-Scattering Technique (Scatter money into the sky, and the magical girl in front of you will have pink heart circles rolling in her eyes!)]

Momose Sena hesitated for a moment.

She's not that kind of person.

But no one can resist someone who is experienced, composed, young and handsome, willing to sponsor them, and of course, the least important thing—he's rich.

However... if they can really give that much, there's nothing they can't do.

She tossed aside the cushion and grabbed the edge of her sweatshirt.

"Actually, I understand what you're thinking... If you want it, I can have it too..."

She lifted the top layer little by little to reveal her abs.

and many more……

"No, no..."

Ryosuke Miyagi was so startled he almost fell over.

no……

What are you doing?

If she spoke any slower, her face would be almost completely obscured...

This magical girl who seemed a bit socially awkward when she first opened the door is actually so wild!

"Don't you want it?"

Momose Sena was somewhat disappointed.

The most attractive qualities to women are good looks, a fascinating life story, and plenty of money. Right now, you're both rich and have a compelling backstory.

Your wealth and extravagance make the magical girl feel uneasy; she feels she should contribute something more to feel at ease.

Ryosuke Miyagi felt a pang of regret.

I really want to slap myself twice.

Actually, it's not impossible.

The words had already been spoken, so he could only grit his teeth and continue pretending, his eyes lingering on the sight of his abs.

He spoke with righteous indignation.

"I'm not that kind of person."
