In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

After a while, Goto Ichiri finally couldn't resist and agreed with her eyes closed.

She was never good at rejecting people, so when a boy who cared about her confessed his feelings, she couldn't possibly overthink it.

Goto Ichiri has accepted the fateful pact.

Your marriage mission is complete.

At this moment, the system in front of Tsukikawa Shuu began to display prompts and started distributing system rewards.

[You have gained the talent: Double experience and double item drops]

You have obtained a blue-grade weapon: the katana Murasame.

Each time you kill a monster, you and your partner will receive the same amount of experience points.

[Your Awakened Class: Empowerer]

You have obtained the "Terrain Master" class card.

Looking at the system panel prompt, Tsukikawa Shuu pondered for a moment.

Being able to gain the same experience points as your partner means that grinding monsters will be much more efficient in the future.

After killing a monster, experience points will no longer be distributed based on damage output, but rather both players will receive all the experience points simultaneously.

For example, if Tsukikawa Shu kills a monster with 100 experience points, not only will Tsukikawa Shu gain those 100 experience points, but Goto Ichiri will also gain 100 experience points.

If two people each kill a monster with 100 experience points, then each person will receive 100 * 2 experience points.

By making a contract, you can gain double the happiness.

For Tsukikawa Shuu, the more wives he has, the higher the rewards he gets from killing monsters.

This is truly a wife-marriage system; I'll really have to rely on my wife to become stronger from now on.

Tsukikawa Shuu thought to herself, then clicked on the description of "Empowerer".

[Empowerment Specialist:]

Defeating monsters with skills has a chance to drop those skills.

Killing players who enter the underworld allows you to steal their skills and class.

[Once you acquire a skill or profession, you can use it yourself or gift it to your partner.]

The system's newbie gift pack looks pretty good.

Then, Tsukikawa Shuu's gaze returned to Goto Ichiri.

Goto Ichiri was still in a daze.

"I'm no longer single? Am I really no longer single? Can someone like me really be out of the single life so easily?

Goto Ichiri pinched his fingers, asking himself the same question over and over again.

She didn't even notice the changes to the system panel in front of her.

"Pochi-chan?"

It wasn't until Tsukikawa Shuu nudged her that Goto Ichiri came to her senses.

"This humble girl is not very talented... please guide me!"

Goto Ichiri seemed to realize something and immediately performed a dogeza (a deep bow).

"No, no, that's unnecessary."

Tsukikawa Shuu quickly replied.

"Take a look and see if there have been any changes since the contract was signed."

Tsukikawa Shu continued.

"Variety?"

It was only then that Goto Ichiri noticed some new things appearing on the system panel in front of him.

A Contract of Fate

You have entered into a marriage contract with Tsukikawa Shu, and your fate is now bound to hers.

"Huh? A marriage contract?"

Goto Ichiri was dumbfounded.

Is this what he meant when he said "together"? They haven't even dated yet, and they're already getting married?

Then, she quickly glanced at the explanation of the marriage contract and was stunned for a moment.

In marriage, besides the sharing of experience, the most important thing is that we share both prosperity and adversity.

If one party dies or suffers a major blow, the other party will also be affected.

This is something more binding than a legal marriage! And it can't be dissolved.

"I haven't saved enough for my dowry yet..."

Goto Ichiri remembered the ceramic pig she kept at home, whose so-called dowry consisted of only a few jingling coins.

In an instant, she collapsed again.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Tsukikawa Shu quickly helped up his wife, who had been married for less than an hour.

"Why...why do you want to marry me so soon? What is it about me that attracts you?"

Goto Ichiri asked.

At this point, she no longer knew what her emotions were.

Confused? Shy? Shocked? In short, reality has completely overwhelmed my brain.

Although I longed to find a partner, getting married so suddenly was too fast... even my imagination couldn't keep up.

"This one……"

Tsukikawa Hiiragi scratched his cheek.

Could I really say that I fell in love with her after watching the anime? I bet no one would believe me.

“Because you’re cute,” Tsukikawa Shuu said.

“…Hmm?” Goto Ichiri blinked.

"In short, she's so cute!"

Tsukikawa Shu emphasized this again with great seriousness.

"Eh? I'm cute?" Goto Ichiri exclaimed in surprise.

She couldn't believe that the word "cute" would come out of someone other than her best friend.

On the contrary, there are quite a few people who say they dress in a rustic or unsophisticated way.

"So...so that's why you fell in love with me?"

Goto Ichiri asked, "I'm actually not that pretty..."

Although she was asked by the other members to wear casual clothes or maid outfits when she joined the band, and was constantly praised for looking good, Goto Ichiri actually had no confidence at all, and felt that they were just trying to flatter her.

"Not bad!"

Tsukikawa Shuu said firmly, then grasped Goto Ichiri's hand.

"So, although it's very rushed and there's been no preparation... please marry me!"

"Right here in this other world!"

Looking into Tsukikawa Shuu's sincere eyes, Goto Ichiri was stunned for a moment, then his face instantly turned red.

"Get married! Get married!"

And she's marrying a guy who's exactly her type. It's a bit fast, but she really has no reason to refuse...

Her face flushed red, and then she became somewhat lightheaded, her expression becoming unpredictable.

It was like drinking fake alcohol; at first, I was confused, then I couldn't hide my shyness, and finally I started laughing like an idiot.

"Hey hey hey..."

The sudden happiness had overwhelmed him.

Goto Ichiri's brain has gone blank!

Chapter 5, Part 1: The Negative Emotions Base Master

"One mile?"

Tsukikawa Shuu shook Goto Ichiri's body.

It took Goto Ichiri quite a while to recover from her mental lapse.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, it's all so sudden, I still can't accept it right now..." Goto Ichiri hurriedly explained.

"Although it's too fast to tie the knot like this, I truly love you, and there's a reason for that."
