Mi Wan followed Bai Feng into the elevator and then into an office on the highest floor of the building. With a single glance across the decor, she confirmed her initial judgement. This Demon Hunter Association was so poor that they couldn’t even afford a leather sofa, and instead, just had an old fashioned mahogany bench.
“Yang Jin, Xiang Zhen, come over quickly and thank Master Mi.” Bai Feng motioned the Blondie-blackie-duo over to thank Mi Wan.
“President, did you make a mistake? How can she be some Master?” Blondie had a look of disbelief and could not accept that Mi Wan was the Legendary Demon Hunter.
“Many thanks, Master.” Yang Jin responded quickly and pulled Blondie down with him as he politely expressed his gratitude. Seeing his own senior show humility, Blondie dude reluctantly turned towards Mi Wan and offered his gratitude.
“President Bai, why are you thanking me?” Mi Wan was confused.
“That bat demon they were chasing after had a level 6 sonic attack that could render a person completely incapacitated by confusing their senses. If Master Mi had not gone and dealt with the bat demon first, these two juniors would have been gravely injured. That’s why they should be thanking you.” Bai Feng explained.
“Nah. They won’t have gotten hurt.” Mi Wan shook her head and disagreed with Bai Feng’s words. Seeing the puzzled looks on their faces, she added, “Without me, they wouldn’t even have found that bat demon’s hideout.”
If you can’t find it, you can’t get hurt.
“…” The three of them became red with embarrassment, but could not refute her claims.
“Ahem…” Bai Feng operated with high EQ, but even he almost couldn’t hold a candle against Mi Wan, so he decided to end the unnecessary pleasantries and went straight to today’s main task, which was to get Mi Wan to register, “Then, Master Mi, please fill up this form.” Bai Feng pulled out a form.
“Application for membership?” Mi Wan glanced at the application.
“Right. We need to keep the contact information of all the demon hunters within the association so that it is easy to manage everyone.” Bai Feng explained as he handed a pen to Mi Wan.
“How many levels can a demon hunter achieve?” Mi Wan skimmed through the details and found an interesting fillable blank. 500 years ago, there were no strict criteria to determine level separations amongst demon hunters, so she had no idea how they determined it today.
“Oh, this. This is based on the levels of the demon race. For example, your abilities allow you to subdue a level 3 demon on your own, then you are considered a level 3 demon hunter.” Bai Feng explained.
“Oh.” Mi Wan understood, “Then what is the highest level amongst the demon’s race today?”
“Today’s demons are mostly between levels 3 and 6. The higher the level, the rarer they are. In present records, the one with the highest level amongst the demons is the leader of the Tiger clan. He is one of the few that survived the Great War amongst humans and demons, and retained his level 10 status.” Bai Feng introduced, “Once you join the association, we will set up an internal account so you can gain information about all demons to make your job easier.”
“Oh~~” The highest level is 10? This information was clearly inaccurate. Fan Chen’s cultivation was higher than level 10, not to mention the opponent that injured him.
“What level demon hunter is Master Mi?” Bai Feng took the opportunity to ask.
“Probably level 3 and above.” Mi Wan replied offhandedly.
The kind of special level 3 snowflake you are, you liar! We investigated the level 3 bat demon after it was caught. You revert it back to its original form with a single slap and then turned your rubber band into a demon-subduing rope. Find me a level 3 demon hunter that is capable of that!
Seeing that Mi Wan was unwilling to divulge her capabilities, Bai Feng was also not that intent on questioning further. As long as she joined the Demon Hunter Association, he would find some use for her.
“Then just write down level 3.” Bai Feng chuckled.
Mi Wan gave Bai Feng a look and then returned the pen.
“What are you doing?” Bai Feng was surprised. Why did she decide to not apply suddenly?
“It’s like this.” Mi Wan smiled as she said, “Before I came, my family has asked me to consider your facilities and qualifications before deciding if I should join.”
Such was a child from a business family. She was so thorough with her considerations that even applying for membership was treated like a contract.
Bai Feng grumbled internally but did not let it show on his face, “Of course. Then…Yang Jin, please tell Master Mi the benefits our association has to offer.”
“Right.” Yang Jin immediately began his introduction, “Once you join the association, there are several invisible benefits, for example, the association will organize a study seminar every month where high-level demon hunters give guidance to low-level demon hunters.”
Well, she won’t need that, and she might even be forced to guide others later on.
“You get a 30% discount if you buy magical equipment from the association.”
Looking at the quality of your magical items, how is it worth buying?
“Every month we get a 10,000 yuan allowance, and if we run into trouble while hunting demons, the associations will also lend a hand.”
This was the only part that was useful but the payment was too small. She got decades’ worth of that salary whenever she blackmails… Ahem… saves a demon.
“Are there any limitations?” Mi Wan asked another question.
“Of course there’s limitations!” Blondie had tolerated Mi Wan for quite a while, so when she started asking about limitations, he automatically answered, “Such as, no threatening the lives of demons and furthermore, no coercing them to give you money or antiques.”
Both of which were offenses that Mi Wan had leveraged over the bat demon.
“Seriously?” Mi Wan stared at Bai Feng.
Bai Feng recalled Mi Wan’s aggressive stance against returning a single cent over the phone last time and added guiltily, “Yes. But we are not going to go after any incidents that happened prior to you joining the Demon Hunter Association. As long as you don’t repeat them in the future.”
The intent was obvious: We are not going to make you refund the money you got from blackmailing the bat demon.
“Thank you.” Mi Wan ignored President Bai and instead turned to face Blondie to sincerely offer her thanks. A look of confusion crossed his face.
The hell. Did he just help her or something? Blondie quickly went through his memories, trying to recall what he did to deserve it.
“President Bai, I have considered. I will not be joining,” Mi Wan said decisively.
“W…But why?” Didn’t Mi Wan come all this way to join their association?
“The money is too little,” Mi Wan bluntly stated and even let out a disappointed sigh.
“…” So you still intend to continue blackmailing demons?
“Master Mi, 10,000 yuan is considered the average monthly salary of a white-collared worker. The association will also announce missions. Completing missions also gives you money.” Bai Feng quickly reminded her.
“Nah, 10,000 yuan isn’t even enough for 2 bags of drugs,” Mi Wan replied straightforwardly.
“Drugs?” The three people froze.
“Yup.” Previously, the Mi family would give the original host of this body 100,000 yuan of pocket money a month, and it was even enough to support her drug addiction. Giving her 10,000 yuan would never be enough to buy a few bags of drugs.
“You… you take drugs?” Blondie could not help but ask.
“Yup.”
“Wh-why?”
“To lose weight.”
Mi Wan followed Bai Feng into the elevator and then into an office on the highest floor of the building. With a single glance across the decor, she confirmed her initial judgement. This Demon Hunter Association was so poor that they couldn’t even afford a leather sofa, and instead, just had an old fashioned mahogany bench.
