Chapter 217 217: The Compensation Items
Barbara seemed to know about this. However, it was only a short time ago that she found out. It seems there were many things she didn’t know about her mother.
The girls were obviously surprised. Choko was a universally famous brand. It wasn’t something that came from their planet, but something that was sold on almost every human-inhabitable planet. It made them ask themselves again in their minds, ‘How rich is Bianca?’
The fact that she had a restaurant on the second floor of the Labyrinth was impressive enough, but now knowing that she owned something like that was beyond their imagination. 𝚍n𝚘v𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐
“Don’t think about it too much,” Bianca smiled and said, “The last Choko Kiss was given to Amon, however, I can create another batch tomorrow. Before entering that world to train, pass by here and I will give them to you. And, Amon, I gave this to you, don’t go around offering it to others, it will make me cry.”
“I knew she wouldn’t refuse, and even if she did, I would have just kissed her with my lips,” Amon said in the most natural way possible.
Ariel blushed a little as she imagined the scenario of her accepting…
“Oh, that’s fine then.” Bianca made an ‘okay’ sign with her left hand.
‘It’s not all right!’ Barbara and the twins exclaimed in their minds.
“I’ll come. Thanks, Bianca~” Ariel perked up as she smiled happily.

A little over an hour later, Amon, Bianca, and the girls reached the university and arrived at Teacher Kaia’s Laboratory. As Bianca had warned before their arrival, Mabel waited near the entrance to the lab.
“Welcome.” Mabel greeted them with a touch of kindness. The coldness and indifference she normally emitted was not present this time when greeting them.
“Thanks for having us~” Ariel said.
“Mabel, it’s been a while~” Julia reached out and held her hands like they were good friends. “How have you been?”
Although they hadn’t known each other for a long time, it could be said that they had survived a life-and-death ordeal together. This element always brings people closer together, and it wasn’t much different with them, though Mabel looked a little more conservative as she just smiled a little gently.
“I’m fine. I’ve made a lot of progress these last few days,” Mabel said, “And you?”
“The same. You could say we’ve both improved a lot~” Julia replied.
They continued talking for a while in the entryway.
“Well, let’s not continue to stand at the entrance. Grandma is waiting for you all inside,” Mabel said suddenly.
Amon walked down the familiar corridor with the girls. In moments, Mabel stopped walking when she reached the end of the hall where there was a big blue sliding door. She pulled it open.
“Grandma, I brought them with me.”
In the room, Teacher Kaia was standing by a table, wearing a white lab coat over casual clothing.
The room was neither too big nor too small, measuring at 8 by 5 meters. Throughout the room, there were various items and books arranged on white wooden tables. They were mostly black suitcases with handles.
From a single glance, it was easy to deduce that these things were most likely what they had gotten after what had happened on Planet Velta. The fact that Teacher Kaia was reviewing each item might have been proof of that. Maybe she was making sure they were safe items with nothing that could be harmful? It was a possibility.
“You came at just the right time,” Teacher Kaia said, “I have finished analyzing the items. They are all safe. There are no tracking devices or any danger from using them. All of these items were what were in the Overlords’ storage items. There’s a lot of good stuff here, but not all of it will be useful to you now.”
Of course, they understood that these were items from Overlord level beings. There was no way they could all be something anyone could use. There must have been a lot of items they weren’t even able to activate.
Teacher Kaia added, “Of course, it’s not just that; the compensation items are also here. As the director knew that I was closest to Amon, and knew all of you, he handed me the items to deliver to each of you.”
Soon after, six rings floated and stopped in front of Amon and the girls.
“Take and drop your blood into your ring,” Teacher Kaia said nonchalantly, “The compensation items are inside the rings. The binding has already been removed and I have already checked the items and they are all safe too.”
“Okay,” Amon and the girls nodded.
Biting their thumbs, they each dripped a drop of blood onto the rings. Each ring had the same pattern and silver color, nothing that differed from one another, and when they glowed, there was a light related to the genetics of each of them.
When the glow disappeared, they all used their rings and used their mind power to look inside the rings. Inside, each of them found a silver suitcase with a handle, pink miners, and a gold plate the size of a dollar bill.
“This pink miner is used to create genetic armor. The miner is the most important and expensive part. Only a few grams need to be used to create an Innate-level one, however, with the amount it has, it can even create genetic armor for a Mutant Ranker.”
After Kaia’s explanation, they realized how rare these miners were.
“Wow, we don’t even have to worry about getting credits to buy new genetic armor. With these, we should reduce our crafting expenses by a lot, right?” Barbara commented rhetorically.
“Hey, what is this golden card?” Maisa asked.
Teacher Kaia looked at her and replied, “On the gold card there is a 100k contribution for each of you. I don’t need to explain how high that is, right?”
“H-hundred thousand?” The disbelief was even greater amongst the girls.
Even Bianca was surprised, as this amount was high enough to rival her income for several months.
“My God, with this we will be able to buy almost anything we need here at will!” Ariel turned red with excitement.
Mabel was calmer. She already knew this before and thanked her grandmother for giving her hers before the others had arrived, or else she might have had as strong of a reaction as the others. She got embarrassed just thinking about it…
Lastly, there was the briefcases. Teacher Kaia did not hesitate and explained right away, “In the suitcases, there are genetic syringes, 10 in each suitcase. These syringes are capable of opening new blank genes with 99% efficiency. In addition, there is a syringe that purifies impurities, recommended for use after using all 10 of the other syringes.”
“Is the effectiveness high enough even for someone of Bianca’s rank?” Amon asked.
“Of course! It will have the same effect, except that her genes need a lot more energy to open any blank genes. In her case, she could open a maximum of 5 blank genes with these five syringes. But don’t think that that is insignificant since her level is considered very high. And in your case, it will open an average of 1 blank gene for each syringe,” Teacher Kaia explained with nonchalant calm.
