17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: I treat you as a younger brother. To think you want to sleep with ?
He Who Knows Fate: Where did you learn these strange lines?
Blank Never Loses: Do you dare say you have no desire to beco a dragon knight?
[TL Note: In case this reference gets lost due to lack of context, Ch’en is of the Lung Race, a race with traits of Chinese dragons. To be a dragon knight, one has to ride a dragon…I’m sure you understand the rest.]
He Who Knows Fate: Huh?
Magus of Flowers: You desire her body, you scoundrel!
He Who Knows Fate: That’s right. I desire her body.
Efreet: Hah! n!
I Have a Strong Presence: Hah! n!
Faillen Angel Gabriel: Hah!
Umaru-chan: You are not to touch my Ch’en waifu!
He Who Knows Fate:
Umaru-chan: …
He Who Knows Fate: Back on topic, this identity does bring a lot of conveniences. I’m not referring to the identity of being Ch’en’s younger cousin but the identity of being a branch mber of a large clan from Yan. That is beneficial to my fishing later.
Efreet: Tsk! Now you have an excuse to sell dicinal pills, right?
He Who Knows Fate: Exactly. Authentic Yan secret dicine, quality guaranteed.
“Ah…never mind.” Ch’en initially wanted to say sothing but did not know what to say. Even soone as steady as Ch’en appeared stupefied when a younger cousin suddenly appeared. Even though he was just a distant relative, this younger cousin had just charged her an astronomical price for a divination.
Erm…I didn’t pay, anyway; it was Swire. I feel much better now. I should say, this cousin did well.
Ch’en could only marvel at the wonders of fate now.
“Younger Brother Chen Heng, why do you need so much LMD?” Swire did not plan on asking for the money back. To her, that amount was just like spilling so water. To save face, she planned to give the money to Chen Heng.
Rather than the money, Swire was more interested in Ch’en’s younger cousin.
“Of course, to upgrade my firearm. I am a Sniper, after all.”
“A Sniper? Show your firearm.”
“Alright, Swire, Chen Heng said he did not bring his firearm—”
Before Ch’en finished speaking, she saw Chen Heng pull a large, two-ter-long firearm from under the table. This gun appeared powerful.
Huh? This table is one and a half ters long at most. Where did he pull the firearm from? Furthermore, didn’t you say you did not bring your firearm to Lungn?
“…Chen Heng, do you have a firearm permit?” Ch’en asked her greatest concern after so silence.
“Firearm permit? What is that?”
“…” If this person were not Ch’en’s younger cousin, she would have dragged him to the Lungn Guard Departnt long ago.
“This firearm looks incredible. Furthermore, it is of a different style from the Laterans’ mainstream firearms.” In contrast to Ch’en, Swire was impressed by the firearm, even reaching out to touch it.
“Alright, now that you’ve seen it, I’ll put it away.” Chen Heng gestured for Swire to remove her hand from the firearm. Then he shoved the sniper rifle back under the table.
“I say, Younger Cousin, can’t you tell us more?” Swire did not stand on ceremony, treating Chen Heng as her own younger cousin, not as an outsider.
“Sorry, I can’t. The heavenly secrets cannot be leaked. A heavenly secret like this could create a powerful Catastrophe.”
Although Chen Heng rejected Swire’s addressing him as younger cousin, he was just 18. The two before him were working adults who had graduated from university, at least 20 years old.
“That’s right. Elder Sister Swire, are you interested in buying Yan secret dicine?” Chen Heng suddenly recalled that Swire was a wealthy buyer, a suitable target for his fishing.
“Yan secret dicine?” Swire knew only a little about the mysterious Yan; after all, she was not a native of Yan. Hence, she felt very curious about the Yan secret dicine Chen Heng ntioned.
“Ch’en…Elder Cousin should know my branch is an extrely mysterious one. As for how it is mysterious? Secret dicines are a part of it.”
Ch’en watched as Chen Heng and Swire carried out an illegal transaction.
Actually, Ch’en had wanted to bring this younger cousin to the Lungn Guard Departnt for setting up a stall and selling dicine without a business license. Unfortunately, this fellow showed extrely mysterious ans when setting up his stall and selling dicine.
For example, Chen Heng had given her a dicinal pill called the Wood Divine Pill earlier. Just slling this secret dicine made her feel relaxed and comfortable.
Ch’en had initially refused when Chen Heng gave her the dicinal pill, as this felt like a bribe and an abuse of authority. However, Chen Heng kept bringing up their familial relationship, shutting her up.
Ten minutes later, Swire and Chen Heng completed their transaction to their mutual satisfaction.
Swire felt this transaction was extrely worthwhile; she managed to obtain the mysterious Yan secret dicine with so materials. Chen Heng found this transaction extrely worthwhile, as he traded so low-grade dicinal pills for materials for strengthening the Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle. Everyone got what they needed.
Although Swire had used only one of the dicinal pills, her body felt significantly relaxed. Furthermore, she did not worry about Chen Heng cheating her. After all, even if a monk ran away, the temple could not run.
“By the way, Chen Heng, do you have a place to stay?” Ch’en decided she should show so concern for her distant cousin who ca to visit Lungn.
“Don’t worry. I stay at that Cloud Sea Hotel next to the Lungn Guard Departnt. I have two companions from Rhodes Island staying there too.”
“I think my family runs that hotel. I’ll make a call later and have them upgrade your rooms to presidential suites.”
“Then thank you, Elder Sister Swire, in advance.”
“Hehehe! Look! Look! Shithead dragon, your younger cousin is much politer than you.”
“Char siu cat, shut up. By the way, Chen Heng, you’d best not take that earlier firearm out in Lungn. After all, you do not have a firearm permit.”
“Got it, Elder Cousin. Thank you for your concern.” Chen Heng no longer had qualms about addressing Ch’en as elder cousin. He even had a strangely pleasant feeling when doing so. After all, Ch’en could be considered his first relative. Although it was a fake relationship, it was a rare experience for him.
“Are you planning on continuing your fortunetelling stall?”
“Of course. I—Chen Heng—will not shrink back from contributing to society. I did that to help those students focus on their studies. That way, they will have a better future. They are just bratty kids now. Why should they be in relationships?”
