I'm just an internet cafe owner

And

After the internet cafe closed and she returned to her own world, she discovered that her Thresh proficiency had reached level one, allowing her to choose a skill.

Following Tina's recommendation, she chose the hook. As for the passive ability? That's innate. Now, Yotsuya Miko can continuously strengthen herself using her soul, and the control power she gained from the Fungal Lord can also be enhanced by Thresh's passive ability.

Whether or not she strengthens her defenses, Yotsuya Miko doesn't care. What truly makes her happy is that she now has another method to deal with these vengeful spirits, and this method even brings her a little bit of joy.

In her familiar home, surrounded by a familiar vengeful spirit, this time she didn't rush to use her pistol, but instead swung out a hook she'd somehow acquired.

At the same time, Gojo Satoru also sensed a very strong soul power. When he looked over curiously, he saw Yotsuya Miko hook the vengeful spirit with a hook and shoot at it without even aiming. After killing the vengeful spirit, all of its power entered Yotsuya Miko's body.

"what happened?"

Gojo Satoru became alert. It was strange; despite absorbing the power of a vengeful spirit, Yotsuya Miko showed no negative energy within her. Instead, she seemed to have improved physical strength? Or perhaps "improved physical strength" wasn't the right word; it should be said her resilience had increased?

This matter touched on his blind spot, but one thing he was certain of was that Yotsuya Miko's observation period might have to be extended.

Chapter 190 Devil Cry

Now, not only is the main store doing better and better, but the branch stores' revenue is also gradually increasing. From just a few people at the beginning, the branch stores now have more than forty people online every day.

Daily income has reached over 100,000, bringing us one step closer to our goal of 200,000 in daily revenue.

"It's coming, it's coming soon."

"What's fast? Am I going to become the boss?"

Mu Geng's outrageous remarks completely ruined Liu Yuan's good mood.

"Quickly chop you up and make you into ginger devil stir-fried meat."

"What? You want to eat the 'wood bladder'? Please give me the tenderest part of it."

Jibril smiled and looked at Kisaragi. Kisaragi's eyes widened, and he leaned back slightly, staring at Liu Yuan in disbelief: "Help! Someone's going to eat a beautiful girl!"

"Waaaah, boss, could you be a little gentler when you're enjoying me~"

Kisara's 'crying' was heartbreaking, but looking at her face, there wasn't a single tear, not even a hint of frustration. That carefree smile was enough to prove that she didn't care at all.

"This won't do! This devil has no respect for his elders now. I wonder who the real owner of this shop is."

Then Liu Yuan suddenly had a bold idea: "Mugen! Let me ask you something. You're a demon. What if I made you a demon hunter?"

"I hunt myself?"

Don't you find it interesting?

"I find this completely meaningless. I'm a demon, you know. Becoming a demon hunter is nothing. Would I kill myself?"

“I think it’s a great idea. Our store is just missing a demon-hunting theme, so I’ve decided to get one.”

Liu Yuan glanced at his bank account balance. After more than ten days of hard work, he now had over 1.3 million yuan in savings, enough to directly add to the game.

He had his eye on this game for a long time, not because it was particularly difficult, but because it satisfied all his perceptions of what constituted "cool".

This game is none other than Devil May Cry. However, the Devil May Cry provided by the system is a bit special; the game mode is still about playing as Dante, Vergil, and Nero, stabbing each other in the back.

In the real-world scenario, however, one would become their younger brother, sister, uncle, or aunt, with no blood relation or known abilities. The general direction of future development wouldn't change, but if one were to follow in Dante's footsteps, Liu Yuan had no idea how things would end up.

Besides, this game has another drawback: its high difficulty level. The game mode is a Musou mode, but the real mode might be a Musou mode being used against you. Because if you can launch others into the air, others can also launch you into the air.

The pros play this game by launching enemies into the air with cool moves, stylish skills, and beautiful finishing moves to take down monsters.

For newbies, this game is the opposite: their own health bar is decreasing while the boss's health bar remains completely still.

So what? This game might not be popular in internet cafes these days, but since Liu Yuan is the owner, what's wrong with him buying it as he pleases? The system doesn't care what game he chooses anyway!

So he directly added the game Devil May Cry, which has no series distinction, and started as a demon hunter from the beginning until he finally went to the demon world with Vergil.

However, Liu Yuan glanced at it and realized that, to accommodate newcomers, this game was one of the few that offered rewards for completing the normal game mode. However, compared to games like Resident Evil and the Old Man's Ring, which offered generous rewards, this one was slightly more difficult.

Although Liu Yuan was very tempted by this game, he had previously restrained himself from buying it. Now that his income was stable and the game was available to most players who could complete it and obtain useful rewards, Liu Yuan could confidently and boldly satisfy his desires.

"Forget it, no rush. In a few days, a new game will be released, and we can all become demon hunters."

A question mark slowly appeared above Mugen's head: "Boss! What are you going to do?"

"Heh heh, of course it's hunting demons! You demon! Prepare to die!"

"???"

Kisara pulled out a fork. As a demon, she also had dignity. Being attacked for no reason like this would make her look down on.

Just as the two were about to unleash an earth-shattering battle, the shop door was pushed open.

At this time when everyone is online, there are unlikely to be any elderly people coming. Pushing open the door can only prove one thing: this is a newcomer.

The person who pushed open the door was a petite woman with brown hair and a short braid. Her clothes were somewhat worn, and she seemed a little nervous.

Her name is Dongshan Xiaohong, and she decided to become a demon hunter in order to earn money. However, she hasn't found a suitable demon to sign with yet. Feeling lost, she came to this strange shop. Upon hearing that the pink-haired girl in front of her was a demon, she was incredibly excited.

"Miss Demon, may I make a contract with you?"

"?"

A question mark slowly appeared above Mugen's head. Make a contract with a demon? Has this little girl gone mad? She is a demon herself, so she naturally knows what kind of monsters demons are.

"Young lady, making a pact with a demon comes at a great price. You are young and have many choices for the future; there is no need to make a pact with a demon."

"Please sign a contract with me!"

"Are you sure? You want to gain my power? I'm a demon, you know. If you sign a contract with me, you'll have to give up something you least want to give up."

"Hey?"

Dongshan Xiaohong froze, then cold sweat streamed down her face, and her expression turned fearful. She hadn't expected this seemingly human, beautiful demon to be such a terrifying being. What was the one thing she least wanted to give up?

Liu Yuan, standing to the side, asked curiously, "Why do you need to make a contract with a demon to become a demon hunter? And you don't seem like the kind of person who has a deep-seated grudge against demons, do you?"

"If I want to make money, the only thing I can do besides becoming a demon hunter is to go into business."

At this point, she made a terrible face.

Liu Yuan noticed her fear, which was probably due to the terrifying nature of the demons in her world.

No one here will hurt you.

Liu Yuan's words had an effect, and Dongshan Xiaohong gradually calmed down. She continued, "I don't want to go into the sea, so I want to become a demon hunter. To become a demon hunter, I can only make a contract with a demon."

"I see?"

At that moment, a glint flashed in Liu Yuan's eyes, and Kisara smiled at Liu Yuan with an expression that said, "I understand everything."

Then she looked at Higashiyama Kokoro: "Sign a contract? Of course, I can give you power, but you need to pay me money. Not much, just 12,000 yen a day. Oh! The test requires some space, and the space fee is 6,000 yen. Here's the money. As long as you pay, I can grant you power. Of course, if you don't have money, you can pay with your lifespan."

Liu Yuan added, "She's a good devil. If you make money in the future, you can use that money to redeem your lifespan. How about that? Isn't that a great deal?"

Chapter 191 Little Red of Dongshan

These words, more demonic than any demon's, left Dongshan Xiaohong speechless. She finally understood the terror of demons. Other demons only wanted a part of flesh and blood, but hers wanted her entire lifespan.

For some reason, looking at the girl in front of him with tears streaming down her face, Kisara suddenly felt like teasing her: "You have a long lifespan, you can live to be eighty years old. But what if you don't sign a contract with me? Will you be eaten by other demons? Or maybe other demons don't want your lifespan, but your life."

"Can I live to be eighty?"

"At the very least, this number could increase if you bring over the corpses of the demons you kill during this period."

"Plop..."

Dongshan Xiaohong swallowed hard, and then Liu Yuan tempted her, saying, "Do you want to live in fear your whole life, being eaten by unknown demons at will? Or do you want to exchange your lifespan for power, and then use that power to regain your lifespan? With the first option, you don't need to do anything; you'll just be an unknown nobody, dying without even knowing how. But if you choose the second option, you will become famous, possess wealth, and achieve all kinds of goals."

"I...I...I choose option two..."

Mugen's smile widened: "Then I will bestow upon you your first power. Come, young demon hunter, and under our guidance, become a true demon hunter."

Dongshan Xiaohong swallowed hard, looking inside the internet cafe. The hundreds of people playing games were completely silent, as if they were dead; some were even making inexplicable movements, as if they were controlled by demons.

But when she thought about how she could earn more money, and the price was only living a few decades less, which could still be redeemed, her emotions gradually calmed down.

"May I ask, how can I use your power?"

"hehe…"

Kisara smiled and said, "After today you will know my power. Sit down."

Dongshan Xiaohong obediently sat down. For some reason, watching Mugeng's actions gave her a feeling that she herself was about to go online. But something was wrong. She could sense that the woman next to her was truly a demon, and Liu Yuan's demonic remarks were also true.

"Don't be confused, this is our latest device. Traditional contracts and methods of granting power are too troublesome. Your human computers are very convenient, so we've adopted them."

"Oh…"

Dongshan Xiaohong fell silent.

On TT, Kisara launched an attack on Liu Yuan.

Urgent distress call.

"Boss! What game should this newbie choose?"

Liu Yuan pondered seriously. It was strange that Dongshan Xiaohong's physical abilities and reaction speed were among the best in humans. However, due to her personality, she couldn't fully utilize this power.

In theory, Dongshan Xiaohong could adapt to any game under these circumstances, but according to her, she wants to become a Devil Hunter. Hmm? Wouldn't Devil May Cry be perfect for her?

However, here's the problem: while playing Devil May Cry and getting a few basic weapons in the game mode is fun, they don't offer much improvement for her, and might not even be enough to keep her alive.

The real mode takes too long. Although it can train her strength, her world seems quite dangerous. If she dies during this time, she will lose a good source of customers.

That's right! In his eyes, Xiao Hong from Dongshan, Shandong, was the perfect customer. She had never engaged in any luxury consumption because she was too poor to afford it. If such a person had a very stable way of making money, and the money she earned far exceeded her expectations, she would be happy to spend a little more money on enjoyment.

If that's the case, then we need to give Dongshan Xiaohong a double insurance.

In the game, she is given demonic powers to become a demon hunter, and in reality, she is also given demonic powers to become a demon hunter, so that her strength can grow rapidly.

With that in mind, she gave Kisara the command.

"Let her play Devil May Cry, and then you talk to Madoka and ask her to sign a contract with you. Anyway, you're both fans, so she won't be able to tell the difference."

"Brilliant! The boss is still the best."

"No need to go up, I've already spoken to Yuan Shen, and she agreed. She's even willing to lend her some power to protect herself. I'll send you the contract; just find an excuse to sign it with her later. This person has good potential; her future spending level is estimated to be very high."

Kisara: "I understand. Let her become the nourishment for our internet cafe."

"Can you please stop being so negative? This is called becoming our sucker."

"The boss is right!"

On TT, she boasted and flattered wildly, while in reality, after giving her the 'power' option she chose, Kisara presented her with a contract.
