Chapter 394: Though Not Short on Money, Who Doesn’t Want to Earn More?
Flandre also retracted her wings. After all, they were still hers. Even if she didn't need them now, she could always store them for later.
"What about me?" "Can you help me too?" "I want to be immune to the sun too."
Seeing their conversation end, Remilia immediately stepped forward.
She wanted the same sun immunity as Flandre. So—please help her too.
As for the wings, hers were perfectly fine. No need to remove them.
Takumi didn't reject her request and agreed right away.
He then began helping Remilia by modifying her genes.
Once he finished, Remilia couldn't have been happier.
"So now I'm no longer afraid of the sun?" "Is this for real?" "I just feel a little warm, and that's it?"
The weather was gloomy at the moment, so Remilia wasn't sure if it worked.
Hearing this, Takumi was speechless. Without a word, he dispersed the overcast sky above.
The next moment, sunlight poured down.
The moment they saw the sunlight, both Flandre and Remilia instinctively backed away. Even Sakuya prepared herself.
Remilia was so scared she almost crouched down covering her head.
But when they realized the sunlight only felt warm and caused no discomfort at all, they finally sighed in relief.
"It really seems fine!!" "That's amazing."
Now that there truly wasn't a problem, Remilia was ecstatic.
From now on, she could walk under the sun openly.
"If we sell this method to vampires, it'll be a huge moneymaker." "Let's make some gene serums." "One bottle for ten million, vampire exclusive."
While speaking, Takumi immediately began preparing the formula in front of them. He uploaded the data into the database and instructed Prometheus to start production.
Remilia and Yuu were left speechless.
This guy was really business-savvy.
Still, to vampires, this stuff was definitely valuable. Even with that price tag, it might just sell.
Takumi wasn't lacking money—he basically owned the entire world.
But throwing something like this out there was still incredibly useful.
"Wait, do we have to pay too?"
Remilia looked directly at Takumi.
"You don't have any money!" "The combined net worth of the entire Scarlet Devil Mansion doesn't even reach ten million—how are you going to pay?"
Hearing that, Takumi rolled his eyes.
You people are practically broke. How are you going to afford it?
Remilia was dumbfounded.
"How did you know that?"
He actually knew how much money they had? Amazing!
"He owns the whole world. He can easily find out anything." "So your bank balance is no secret to him."
Yuu calmly sipped her tea and explained.
If necessary, Takumi could learn everything happening in the world.
So Remilia's little stash of money held no mystery for him.
"That's ridiculous!!"
Remilia was frustrated.
She didn't like this feeling at all.
But there was nothing she could do about it. Takumi did own the entire world, after all.
After uploading the gene serum data, Takumi gave instructions to Prometheus —telling her to have the science institute start producing them.
Then he triggered a large-scale data push to all vampires.
Prometheus immediately acted on the command.
Remilia's terminal received the message too.
Seeing the notification, she was speechless.
"You're already the ruler of a world..." "Is doing stuff like this really okay?" "It just feels weird."
Remilia didn't even know how to criticize Takumi anymore.
He was like a mayor or a city governor, but he acted more like a merchant.
"What's wrong with it?" "Only a fool wouldn't make money when they can."
Takumi didn't mind at all. Might as well rake in some profits.
Remilia was completely speechless. Even Sakuya was a little surprised.
Only Yuu, who knew Takumi's shamelessness, wasn't fazed.
After arranging everything, Takumi turned to Yuu.
"Yuu, are you still comfortable living here?"
He asked with concern.
Yuu nodded.
"It's great. This world is very comfortable."
She liked Takumi's world very much. There weren't many worries—she could peacefully live the life she wanted.
When she had free time, she would visit friends, drink tea, and chat. It was the perfect retirement life.
Seeing this, Takumi asked again:
"By the way, are you really not going to earn some points?" "Don't you want to strengthen yourself?"
Yuu hadn't done a single mission. That alone puzzled Takumi.
Could she really have no interest at all?
"No. I don't like doing missions." "Things are fine as they are." "I'm not forcing anything." "I'll leave the chances to others." "The points I've gotten from check-ins are enough." "I've already enhanced myself twice." "The third enhancement requires way too many points."
She never pushed herself too hard. She'd already undergone two enhancements—entirely from check-in points.
In fact, she hadn't spent any points on anything else.
All of it went toward enhancements.
The third one needed too much. So she was taking it slow.
But it was fine—Yuu had a long lifespan.
Eventually, she'd be able to strengthen herself again.
That's why Yuu never bothered with missions.
She had enough.
Takumi greatly admired her laid-back attitude.
Everyone else in the group was trying to grind for points.
But Yuu? Never chased it once.
From the very first mission to the most recent, she had always just quietly watched.
"Hey hey, by the way, does your organization still recruit?" "Can you bring us in?"
At that moment, Remilia suddenly looked at Takumi with anticipation.
She knew Takumi's group had a special organization.
Even that NEET princess was part of it. And got stronger because of it.
"Nope!" "Don't even think about it."
Takumi rejected her without hesitation.
Just forget it.
No one in the group was inviting others in anymore.
Seeing Takumi's immediate refusal, Remilia was disappointed.
"Alright then."
What a pity.
If only she could join—it'd be so great.
"Takumi-nii, let's go play!" "I want to go outside and explore."
After Remilia asked her question, Flandre chimed in.
Now that she had recovered, she really wanted to go out and have fun.
After coming to this world, she hadn't seen much yet.
Now that she was healthy, wasn't it the perfect time to go out and explore?
