A cross-dressing anime, starting with Kaguya-sama: Love Is War.

"no!"

"How could that be?"

"I don't even have enough money to maintain my weapons and equipment myself, so I'm not going to give you any!"

"Anyway, there's none for me."

Kaguya seemed to have been exposed, and offered a flustered explanation.

The result was self-evident; Lynn smiled.

"Hahaha!"

"I understand, it's alright. Your husband will earn more money and pay you back double."

We can't stay here long, or something bad will happen.

This was all Kaguya was thinking at that moment, and she stubbornly gave her orders.

"And you two, listen up!"

"Absolutely! You're only allowed to stay on the first three levels of the dungeon! If you dare to go down another level, and I find out..."

"If I find out, I'll definitely teach you a lesson."

"Please be careful!"

After giving his instructions, Kaguya fled as if running away, disappearing quickly into the crowd without looking back.

...

P.S.: Guys, I'm taking a break. I'll try to update seven chapters tomorrow. Also, please give me some ratings and flowers.

25. Are you really a member of the Astrea Familia?

Lynn watched Kaguya's retreating figure, which was almost a complete rout, and smiled helplessly.

Chunji looked up at him with some concern and asked, "Lord Lynn, are we really going to accept so much money?"

"Why not accept it! They're not outsiders."

Lynn carefully put away the money pouch, took Chunji's hand, and said, "Let's go, we should get down to business."

The two walked side by side into the towering tower that pierced the clouds—the Tower of Babel.

The Adventurers' Guild is located at the bottom of the tower.

The spacious hall was packed with people, filled with all sorts of adventurers.

The huge job posting board on the wall was surrounded by layers of people.

"Emergency escort mission! One million falies reward per person! Protect the caravan and ensure its safe arrival at Moby Village outside the city!"

"Recruiting security personnel! The factory area has been under frequent attacks recently, and we need adventurers of LV2 or above to be stationed there long-term! Excellent benefits!"

"Monster sighting in the city! Requesting squad to clear it out!"

Almost all of the missions involved guarding, security, and purging.

Lynn pulled Chunji along, and they finally managed to squeeze into a service window where there were relatively few people.

Behind the counter, a bespectacled, long brown-haired half-elf woman was meticulously processing the files.

Her expression was focused and serious, and she maintained a smile even in such a noisy environment.

Eina Zur.

Lynn recognized him at a glance.

Although she is still very young, her serious and responsible attitude towards work is already beginning to show.

Eina seemed to sense someone was there. She looked up and her gaze fell on Lynn and Chunji.

At a glance, she could tell from their new yet ordinary clothes that they were new adventurers.

"Is there anything I can do to help you?" Her voice was gentle and polite.

"Hello, we are new members of the Astrea Familia. We're here to submit our basic information and complete the registration," Lynn said calmly.

"The Astrea Familia?" A hint of joy flashed in Eina's eyes. "That righteous family has new members joining them. That's great news."

She smiled and took out two forms and a pen from under the counter, handing them to them.

Please fill in the information above completely.

Lynn and Chunji took the forms and began to fill them out carefully.

Soon, the two returned the completed forms to Eina.

Eina picked up Haruhime's form first, carefully examined the information on it, and nodded. "Haruhime, the fox-woman, welcome to become an adventurer of Yulari."

Then, she picked up Lynn's form.

When her gaze fell on the "Family Affiliation" column, the smile on her face slowly froze.

Astraea, the goddess of justice.

Eina looked up at Lynn with a puzzled expression, then tapped lightly on that column of the form with her finger.

"Your name is Lynn, right? Did you fill this out incorrectly?"

Lynn shook her head. "I didn't fill it in wrong."

"How is that possible?" Eina's voice unconsciously rose a little. "The Astrea Familia, isn't it just girls?"

"Are you really from the Astrea Familia?"

Adventurers are the kind of people who love to join in the fun, and the people around them started shouting along.

"Hey, did I hear that right? That kid said he's from the Astrea Familia?"

"What a joke! That's the kin of the Goddess of Justice, a place full of women!"

"Is this kid desperate for fame? He actually dares to impersonate a member of the Astrea Familia!"

Faced with the accusations around her, Chunji mustered her courage and loudly retorted, "No...no, Lord Lynn...he didn't lie."

Lynn remained calm, completely ignoring the barking of the dogs around him, and simply looked at Eina, who looked confused, and said;

"First, the goddess Astrea has never publicly announced that her kin only recruits female members."

"Secondly, what benefit do you think I get from fabricating such an easily exposed lie?"

Just then,

A mocking voice came from the crowd.

"Why isn't there any benefit?"

A slender human adventurer, dressed in an exquisite gown and with a hint of smugness on his face, pushed his way through the crowd.

"What if you use your status as a member of the Astrea Familia to deceive people?"

He looked Lynn up and down, his eyes filled with disdain.

And someone nearby recognized the person.

"It is Chandra of the Soma clan."

"Isn't that Level 2 adventurer who's second only to Captain Soma?"

"When did he reach LV2?"

I heard that he recognized the leader of the Soma Guild as his adoptive father, and apparently became a Level 2 through some special means.

Shh, keep your voice down.

"No matter what method you use, LV2 is LV2. I'm afraid I'll never reach that level in my lifetime."

LV1 is considered a lower-level adventurer. Half of the people in Yulari are LV1, and many never advance to LV2 in their entire lives.

Level 2 and above are referred to as advanced adventurers.

Chandra enjoyed the flattery around him, and he walked up to Lynn and said:

"Kid, although the Astrea Familia has never explicitly said that they don't accept men, that's the reality."

"Even I, a young and highly skilled adventurer with such outstanding talent, wanted to join the Astrea Familia, but the goddess didn't even give me a single meeting. Do you think it was possible for me?"

He then pointed to Chunji beside him, "I think it's not just you, but also this fox-person next to you, they're all imposters!"

...

26. Lift up your shirt

"I think he just wants to use the name of the Astrea Familia to cheat people out of their money and drink!"

"Get him out of here! Don't let him tarnish the reputation of the Goddess of Justice!"

The surrounding chatter grew louder and louder.

Chunji turned pale with fright.

Eina realized the situation was getting out of control. Seeing that Lynn and Chunji didn't seem like the type to deceive people, she quickly spoke up to defuse the situation.

"Please be quiet, everyone!"

She raised her voice, trying to drown out the surrounding noise, "The adventurer's identity information is actually very easy to verify."

Eina's gaze returned to Lynn, and she spoke in a businesslike tone:

"If you're willing, you can lift up your shirt and let us see the 'Blessing' on your back. The clan emblem on it cannot be faked."

In everyone's eyes, this proposal was perfectly reasonable.

However, Lynn slowly shook her head.

"No."

Neither his undecipherable "Outer Side of Truth" nor Haruhime's "Treasure Hammer" is suitable to be revealed here in front of so many people.

Besides, I don't need to prove myself to them at all.

"Ha! You won't dare now, will you!"

"Ha! Look! He's feeling guilty!"

"I knew he was a liar! He wouldn't even take his clothes off!"

"Kid, if you admit it now and show a good attitude, I might give you a lighter punishment!"

Lynn's refusal instantly ignited the emotions of the surrounding crowd.

Chandra approached step by step, a disdainful sneer on his face, "Kid, since you refuse to take it off yourself, I'll give you a hand!"

As he spoke, he actually reached out and grabbed Lynn's collar.

Lynn's eyes turned cold.

He knew that going head-to-head with a Level 2 adventurer would be nothing short of asking for trouble.

However, Lynn would definitely not stand for being captured and bullied for no reason.

First, use the Swallow Return to intimidate the opponent. I believe Eina and the people around her are not fools and will see through the clues.

Given the chaos here, the guild members will definitely stop it.

Just as Chandra's hand was about to touch him, Lynn moved.

His body tilted back at an incredible angle, narrowly avoiding Chandra's grab.

At the same time, his hand moved with lightning speed, drawing the longsword from the waist of an adventurer watching the spectacle.

"Clang!"

The longsword was drawn, producing a clear and melodious sound.

Upon seeing this, Chandra, instead of being wary, burst into laughter.

"What? You want to fight me? I don't even need to take out my weapon, I can crush you!"

Lynn ignored his shouts and simply gripped the sword in her hand tighter.

What he needs to do is not to win, but to intimidate.
