Their commission was suspicious.

Physical proximity.

Therefore, they can often collect some unnecessary intelligence. Although this intelligence may seem trivial, mercenaries who have been doing this for a long time are used to collecting intelligence. For example, the other members of Chen Luo's family are ordinary people, and Chen Luo is the only outstanding one in the family.

Of course, he could only think it in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud, since it seemed that someone was going to compete with him for the bartender job.

Although Chen Luo kept saying that he would never let the other party take his place, other employers who had unilaterally terminated their contracts in the past said the same thing.

Although those employers suffered somewhat dire consequences after breaking their contracts, the problem is that Raven is no match for Chen Luo right now.

If only I had bullied Chen Luo more when he was weak.

To increase my competitiveness, should I charge less for work points?

No, no, I strongly oppose involution!

If involution doesn't work, then the only option is to rise to the top!

"Ding-a-ling!" The wind chimes rang out.

"See? This is the place I told you about that connects to other worlds. I didn't lie to you, did I?" Yukari Yakumo's voice rang out.

"Hmm, putting aside whether he's heading to another world or not, the way he appeared completely without any warning signs. Overall, he's got something going on. Holy crap, Poporon?"

"Kaguya, you're a princess, can't you be a little more mindful of your image? But how do you know her?" Yakumo Yukari said with a dark face.

Yukari Yakumo always felt that bringing Kaguya to her was like bringing a country bumpkin into the city.

However, Yukari Yakumo was quite curious about why Kaguya Houraisan knew the maid who greeted them at the bar entrance.

"What? You don't know her? Haven't you read the manga? Oh, you really haven't read the manga, since you, old lady Zi, basically do nothing but sleep." The girl said disdainfully.

Standing next to Yukari Yakumo was a beautiful black-haired girl dressed in extremely elaborate and gorgeous attire. However, the words she spoke seemed somewhat out of place with her elegant and graceful demeanor.

Chen Luo, who was sitting at the bar, narrowed his eyes after hearing Kaguya Houraisan's words.

It solidified, but not completely.

In fact, the fact that someone could recognize others outside their own world was not surprising to Chen Luo, as he had been preparing for this for a long time.

After all, Chen Luo didn't believe that only his world had this special privilege of being able to see anime and other things related to other worlds.

So this was somewhat surprising, but not entirely surprising.

In fact, this day came a little later than Chen Luo had imagined.

Chen Luo has almost passed the stage of making money by exploiting information asymmetry.

Chen Luo now mostly completes tasks by doing what he can.

Even if you tell Bronya not to panic now, as long as you wait patiently for a few years, you will eventually be able to rescue "Hill" from the Sea of ​​Quanta.

Do you think Bronya will issue a commission?

Bronya can't wait that long, and who says history can't be changed?

Kiana's history exam, which originally had a score of 0, has now been changed to a score of 2, hasn't it?

Hasn't this already changed history?

Moreover, sometimes there are requests that don't need to be spoken aloud. As long as you keep the matter in your mind and have a strong attachment to it, the request will naturally come.

Besides, Chen Luo didn't ask for anything valuable from the person asking for his help.

So even if someone comes along and spoils the plot, it won't be a big problem for Chen Luo.

Well, there are some problems, more or less, but they're not too big.

This is because after Kaguya Houraisan came to this world, she seemed to only recognize Poporon after looking around for a long time. Raven, who was standing next to Chen Luo, was not mentioned at all.

Chen Luo knew a bit about Kaguya Houraisan. Having become familiar with Yukari Yakumo, he knew she would definitely bring people with her, so he made a point of learning more about her.

Kaguya Houraisan is a runaway princess of the Moon City who possesses the ability to manipulate eternity and fleeting moments.

According to some rumors, Kaguya Houraisan is the most classic Eastern beauty, while Alice Megatron is the most classic Western beauty.

As Princess Kaguya, renowned for her beauty in The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, she certainly deserves this title.

Of course, this doesn't mean she's the most beautiful woman in the entire Gensokyo; it just means she's the most representative of the Touhou ideal of beauty.

Because she used her abilities to make Eirin Yagokoro create the elixir of immortality—the Elixir of Hourai—and then consumed it, she violated a taboo and was exiled to the surface, becoming a runaway princess.

And then... he's a total shut-in.

For Kaguya Houraisan, whose age is said to be measured in hundreds of millions of years, she must have tried every game imaginable. The fact that the other party couldn't recognize Raven can only mean two things.

Firstly, the other side has not yet released the game Honkai Impact 3rd in the current world.

Secondly, not all worlds have all the isekai anime and games.

"Dear Chen Luo, have you read the manga 'Jashin-chan Chūichi-jō-shōu'?" Yukari Yakumo asked with a smile as she entered the bar, put her arm around Chen Luo's neck, and led him out.

After recognizing Poporon without ever having met him before, Yukari Yakumo naturally inquired about the matter. She listened to Kaguya Houraisan's account and realized that things were not so simple.

Yukari Yakumo wasn't stupid. As a sage among youkai, what aspect hadn't she considered? In fact, after entering the bar for the first time, Yukari had been gathering information about the bar's customers. However, after collecting information for so long without finding anything useful, Yukari gave up.

Little Jashin doesn't actually come to bars very often, or rather, he doesn't come to bars very often. There was a long gap between his first and second visit, so it's normal that Yukari Yakumo doesn't recognize him.

Before meeting the little evil god, Yakumo Yukari had already given up comparing the bar customers in reality with reality.

So Yukari Yakumo coincidentally missed this matter until a remark from Kaguya Houraisan brought it to her attention.

"Oh, you mean that manga? I've read it. What's wrong?" Chen Luo, who had been pulled out by Yakumo Yukari, said without resistance.

Ah, to be fair, although Yun Zi does look quite old-fashioned, her breasts are really big.

An old woman in her thirties was acting like a virgin.

But it's beautiful, so it's okay.

"I have a feeling you're thinking about something rather rude, but never mind." Yakumo Yukari narrowed her eyes, but considering the important matter at hand, she let Chen Luo off the hook.

"Since you know about this comic, why have you never mentioned it?"

"You didn't ask me, so why should I tell you?" Chen Luo looked at Yakumo Yukari with some confusion.

"...Tch, then let me ask you another question: Did you know me before you met me?" Yukari Yakumo asked.

"I don't know him." Chen Luo shook his head.

"I see..."

"But I've seen your notebook."

"Um???"

"Then why do you say you've never seen me? And what the hell is this notebook?"

"Laughable. Do you have to know someone to look at their notebook? Who made that rule?" Chen Luo sneered.

“I think he makes a good point,” Kaguya Houraisan, who was sitting next to Chen Luo and Yukari Yakumo, suddenly interjected.

Yukari Yakumo pulled Chen Luo to a more secluded corner, where Kaguya Houraisan was also sitting.

After all, Kaguya Houraisan was one of the parties involved. Compared to Yukari Yakumo, Kaguya had the advantage of playing more games and reading more comics. Therefore, with Kaguya Houraisan, Yukari Yakumo no longer needed to go back to her own world to check information when Chen Luo mentioned something.

"..."

"Don't be angry, Yukari Yakumo. I was just joking. After all, someone like you who's past her prime doesn't even have any popular doujinshi these days." Seeing that Yukari Yakumo's expression was a little strange, Chen Luo quickly comforted her.

"..." Yakumo Yukari's face darkened even more.

"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. You didn't call me here just to ask these weird questions, did you?" Chen Luo coughed twice, trying to get the conversation back on track.

"I originally wanted to ask if your world has any games, anime, or comics related to our world, but now it seems there's no need to ask anymore, it's already confirmed," Yukari Yakumo said, her face still dark.

"So?" Chen Luo tilted his head.

"So you should just bring over those games, comics, anime and stuff for me to look at," Yukari Yakumo said.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[The Truth About the World]: Take over the game about Yukari Yakumo's world, so that Yukari Yakumo can better understand the truth about the world and the relationship between worlds.

Reward: 300 Primogems + the secret of Yukari Yakumo's true age.

"No," Chen Luo said with a look of disgust.

What kind of garbage reward is this?

Who would know your real age, you old woman?

And who are you going to pay 300 gems for?

"You can't even handle this?"

Yukari Yakumo believed she knew Chen Luo well enough, and hoped that after she sent him the request, he would at least be a little tempted.

It's not that the other party will definitely complete the task once it's been assigned, but what does it mean to refuse so quickly?

"I have no problem getting some of those games from that series, but you have to give me something in return. You can't just try to get something for nothing," Chen Luo said.

When a dead tool decides to attack the person who used it, it means that the tool has been exploited enough.

Okay, just kidding. Chen Luo just wanted Yakumo Yukari to give up a little more.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Yukari Yakumo was unusually generous, offering no bargaining whatsoever.

Because there is absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter.

It's a seller's market now.

Therefore, Yukari Yakumo has always deeply abhorred monopolies.

Unless Yukari Yakumo is the one with a monopoly.

"First, you have to sign a contract with me. Although I don't know what kind of anime or games exist in your world, you can't stop me from making money."

"In other words, you can't talk about their world with anyone you know from any of their worlds, including Ms. Kaguya next to you. But I'm not familiar with her, so I need your help to persuade her," Chen Luo said, taking out the Book of Contracts and placing it on the table.

Although Chen Luo has said that he has passed the stage of making money by exploiting information asymmetry, the question is, if you can make money by exploiting information asymmetry without doing anything, why not do it?

Chen Luo received raw stones simply by talking, without any loss to either party. In any case, the raw stones were completely unusable for them, and Chen Luo hadn't done anything wrong, so he was perfectly justified.

"..." Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, Yakumo Yukari instantly felt aggrieved and uncomfortable.

Actually, Yukari Yakumo originally planned to figure out the situation, watch more anime and games, and then use the information from this incident to make some kind of deal with the other party.

After all, intelligence is the least valuable thing, yet also the most valuable.

But then again, is it possible to bypass Chen Luo and directly ask people in other worlds if their worlds have any games, anime, or other information about them?

In this way, they wouldn't have to pay Chen Luo a price.

"Oh dear, what's the purpose of this blacklist system at the bar? It seems to be a system that can blacklist people and prevent them from ever entering the bar again. I don't think I've ever used it before, I wonder how effective it is..." Chen Luo suddenly said, feigning surprise.

"...You win, deal." Yakumo Yukari nodded with a dark face.

Chapter 437 The Otaku Princess Bought by Games

"Don't be so eager to close the deal. I haven't finished explaining my conditions yet. Don't think that not asking you to reveal any information is making things difficult for you. In fact, the bar itself has this function, but I feel that if we use this function, it may cause the bar's customers to be in a bad mood, which may lead to a decrease in sales. So, strictly speaking, this is not an excessive request."

"...Then what other requests do you have?"

"My second request is that you can't stop me from going to Gensokyo."

"What are you going to Gensokyo for?" Yukari Yakumo immediately became alert.

"What could I be doing? Of course I'm going to find a mission. What else could I be doing but going to see you?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Yakumo Yukari.

"Also, we need to gather information about your world. Just like Kaguya Houraisan was able to recognize Poporon, your world must also have some anime and other things that we don't have. If we encounter such guests in the future, we can start by looking at their interests and customize pleasant commissions for them."

For example, if Chen Luo didn't play Honkai Impact 3, he wouldn't be able to quickly help Theresa find her niece.

If Chen Luo hadn't played Honkai Impact 3, he wouldn't have known the relationship between the previous and current civilizations, so the resurrection of Cecilia and Yae Rin would have been even more absurd.

Intelligence can be really important sometimes.

"Moona..."

"Yukari Yakumo, don't even think about using that information to exchange for the game in your world. You should know that since others haven't recognized you—because you're somewhat famous—it means that not every world has information on every other world. So you should understand that this level of control is in my hands." Chen Luo pointed to himself.

"Tsk." Yukari Yakumo curled her lip in displeasure.

Yukari Yakumo never expected Chen Luo to be so perceptive.
