Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

But you're my friend!

"I'm a girl! Don't you have any shame at all letting me see your body like that?!"

"Why don't you take your clothes off too, so I can see them as well? That way we'll be even."

"Ugh, that's enough, Momo! I know you're being silly, but what are you trying to do? I'm really getting angry!"

Kuroyukihime breathed heavily, glaring fiercely at Mo Mo. If it weren't for the fact that the two were already close enough to be more than friends, Mo Mo's perverted behavior would definitely have gotten him called in by the police.

Although the police officers are all Momo's family now.

However, to Kuroyukihime's surprise, Momo's smile disappeared, and he seemed to have changed slightly.

That was... a touch of sadness.

"I'm sorry, I just need to calm down. After all, this is the first time in my life I've confessed my feelings and the first time I've been rejected."

Kuroyukihime's heart skipped a beat. She opened her mouth, and the anger in her heart vanished instantly. She lowered her head and said, "That's no excuse for you to take off your clothes like that. Although your customs are probably very warm, it would really be considered perverted here."

She dared not look at Mo Mo, for she was afraid that the courage she had gathered would vanish in an instant.

"Besides, even if we can't be lovers, we can still be good friends, right? You see, you can come to me anytime, and we can chat and have fun together, isn't that great?"

"By the way, if you don't have a place to stay yet, there aren't many residents in this luxury apartment building. It's still up for sale. You can move in here and become my neighbor... If that doesn't work, I can let you stay here temporarily for a while."

"So, we don't necessarily have to dwell on these things, do we?"

Kuroyukihime smiled with difficulty, as if she were trying to persuade Momo, but she realized with a heavy heart that her words were more of a seduction than a persuasion.

Ultimately... is it just that I can't bear to part with it?

No, I have to make up my mind!

Kuroyukihime's heart trembled. She knew herself too well. Because she was used to refusing, she would desperately cling to anything she didn't want to refuse.

However, this time, facing Momo... she couldn't do that.

"Actually, I was just chatting with my grandfather from a distance."

"Ugh?"

Kuroyukihime was taken aback and looked at Momo, Momo's grandfather?

Isn't that His Majesty the King of Dubai?

Kuroyukihime couldn't help but sit up a little straighter.

"Well, actually it's because I don't have a real right to the throne, and my temperament suits my grandfather's taste, so he really likes me!"

Mo Mo revealed a proud smile, and Kuroyukihime nodded in agreement. Being valued by a king was something to be proud of, no matter what.

“I told my grandpa that I had been rejected by a girl, and then…”

"Then?"

Kuroyukihime also became slightly nervous. She really wanted to know how this king would view Momo... how he would view her for rejecting Momo.

"Then Grandpa asked me if I truly liked you, and I said yes. I said that although we hadn't known each other for long, this girl's beauty had already entered my heart."

Mo Mo smiled and looked directly at Kuroyukihime. Kuroyukihime quickly tried to look away, but Mo Mo touched her cheek and forcibly turned her back to her.

Kuroyukihime blushed, her heart pounding wildly. A voice inside her was warning her, telling her, "Reject Momo immediately, or you'll be in big trouble!"

However, at this moment, Kuroyukihime hesitated. Looking into Momo's pure and resolute eyes, she hesitated...

"My grandfather told me that to win a girl's heart, you have to be shameless. Buy her whatever she likes, do whatever she likes, own whatever she likes, and change whatever she likes. Even if it means buying a mountain, a city, or a country for her, you have to have the courage to do it."

"The amount of love you give to a girl is equal to the amount of love you have for her. If you have as much love for her as the grains of sand in the Sahara Desert, then you should give more sweat, tears, and even blood than the grains of sand."

"This is what a real man wielding a scimitar in the desert should do."

Kuroyukihime gaped, almost suffocated by the overwhelming aura of fierceness emanating from him. Before her stood Mo Mo, naked, yet seemingly clad in heavy armor, wielding a scimitar, his gaze resolute, poised to charge towards the distant enemy.

Fearless.

She suddenly had a feeling that it was too late...

"So, Xiaoxue, this is the second time I've confessed to you today, but it's not a confession."

"If you agree, then fine. But if you don't, then I, Mo Mo, swear once again that I will marry you, even if it means taking you by force with my scimitar."

"God above all, this is the first oath I, Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Momo, have ever sworn in my life as a man, and I will not give up until my life ends."

"Mo Mo, I... I'm not that good... really, please don't do this..."

Kuroyukihime was in a panic. She thought it was a Mary Sue romance drama, but Mo Mo suddenly turned into a domineering CEO. Coach, did I miss an episode?

"I refuse."

Mo Mo smiled slightly. He would not give Kuroyukihime another chance to refuse. Since Kuroyukihime was not willing to open her heart herself, Mo Mo would take matters into his own hands, even if it meant being disliked.

26 Love and Life

Momo has never been a passive person. The reason he became somewhat passive after entering the Accelerated World is because he maintained a pure heart.

I really want to have a proper relationship!

Unfortunately, it's all the world's fault, the timing's fault, and Kayaba Akihiko's fault. With people like them always taking the blame, Mo Mo can throw the blame around without restraint... cough cough, but he also has to act cautiously.

However, Kuroyukihime did not give her that chance. Her childhood friendship and Kuroyukihime's innocence made her relationship with Arita Haruyuki even closer. In addition, Kuroyukihime currently regarded Arita Haruyuki as her last straw. Anyone who tried to take this straw from her would probably be turned against by Kuroyukihime.

Therefore, Mo Mo did not want to have a direct conflict with Haruyuki Arita and would not try to harm him directly or indirectly. If possible, he really wanted to have a fairytale romance with Kuroyukihime, like a prince and princess.

In any case, Momo would not allow Haruyuki Arita to take advantage of their childhood bond and easily get in touch with Kuroyukihime without any clear explanation.

Even though they haven't done anything, they can decide everything just by knowing each other. This is the most incomprehensible and also the most astonishing thing about anime girls.

It is their purity and perseverance that make them lovable and admirable.

This gave Mo Mo a bit of a headache. If time allowed, Mo Mo would have preferred to gradually break down Kuroyukihime's defenses and enter her heart. However, time didn't allow it right now, so Mo Mo had no choice but to just charge in headfirst.

Success or failure, winning or losing, actually depends on Kuroyukihime's single thought.

"Mo Mo, calm down. I really... I'm not the good girl you think I am. I'm disliked, I've let my friends down, and even my family kicked me out. How can I be as good as you say!"

Kuroyukihime also became agitated, tears streaming down her face. She said, "I am black, pure black, with an ugly heart. You have never seen it. Once you have, you will definitely hate me and despise me!"

"Since you know I've never met you, why are you so sure? Perhaps you could give me a chance to see into your heart?"

Kuroyukihime paused slightly, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes, but she immediately shook her head, saying, "No, you..."

"Are you sure I can't do it? I'm curious, what is it that I can't do? Xiaoxue, actually I'm a very proud child, at least for now, I don't think there's anything that my peers can do but I can't."

Originally, Kuroyukihime was leaning against the back of the sofa, lying on it with her legs stretched out. Now, due to Mo Mo's gradual pressure, her body has curled up, and even her injured leg is moving slightly.

Seeing this, Mo Mo picked up Kuroyukihime's injured leg and placed it on his bare thigh. Then he gently massaged Kuroyukihime. The familiar feeling made Kuroyukihime relax slightly. This seemed to have become a habit for the two of them.

Kuroyukihime's face turned pale. She sensed something was wrong. Momo had already made up his mind about something, and it was clear that Momo was not someone who would give up easily.

"I……"

Kuroyukihime was speechless. She didn't know whether she should tell Momo about the Accelerated World or whether she should try to bring Momo down with her.

"...If you keep pressuring me, I'm calling the police!"

Kuroyukihime finally decided to avoid these topics and firmly refuse Momo. No, she couldn't drag Momo into this; he shouldn't have been involved in all of this.

Do you hate me now?

"How could anyone not hate it? Your behavior, forcing others, could never be liked by anyone!"

Is this what you really think?

"These are my true feelings, Mo Mo. Your actions have pushed me to my limit. Leave now, or I'm really going to call the police!"

The atmosphere seemed to tense up instantly. Yui whispered to Mo Mo, "Dad, isn't this going too far?"

"No, Yui."

Mo Mo smiled slightly and said, "I only came into contact with the part of Kuroyukihime that she least wanted to be known. If I back down now, I'm afraid I will never have another chance. My previous close relationship with her will also disappear, and she will completely erase me from her heart."

"Oh, Dad, what should we do?"

"Sometimes, a man has to be willing to risk everything, even his own life, to defend pure love!"

"...Dad, it's not convincing for you to say something like that while you're naked..."

"Nice, Yui, you're improving!"

Kuroyukihime suppressed the overwhelming emotions in her heart. She finally mustered up her courage, her last bit of courage, to look Mo Mo directly in the eye. She wanted to reject Mo Mo and even decided to cut off all contact with him from now on, because Mo Mo was too dangerous and was about to force his way into her heart.

Kuroyukihime wasn't really stupid. She knew what the meaning of her intimate contact with Momo was. She could understand that something was wrong as soon as she calmed down, but she just didn't want to calm down.

Just like Momo's love for her, she herself was also attached to it all, not wanting it to end, not wanting to let go.

Just like looking up at cherry blossoms, I only hope to keep a distance and watch quietly, without wishing for the cherry blossoms to fall, or to pick a cherry blossom myself and smell it.

She longed for this kind of feeling, hoping to experience and savor it up close, yet she was also afraid of truly falling into it. To put it bluntly, it was still that deep-seated feeling of rejection that was causing her trouble.

Like it but refuse it, crave it but refuse it, be greedy but refuse it.

The deep wounds of her heart, blackened by darkness, still remain rooted there.

She felt a little sad. Looking at Mo Mo, who was so close to her, she thought that Mo Mo would be angry, furious, and would leave feeling humiliated after being rejected so directly.

He was simply expressing his feelings with sincerity, but she used such a lame excuse as calling the police to brush him off. That must have been incredibly hurtful.

Then, a smile appeared on Mo Mo's lips.

A gentle smile.

The warmth in her smile instantly broke through Kuroyukihime's fragile defenses, causing that tightly closed door to open a crack, and the sound of a heartbeat suddenly came from behind her...

"thump!"

"thump!"

"thump!"

"I..." Tears welled up again, and Kuroyukihime closed her eyes and roared, "I'm really going to call the police!"

"The alarm interface is right here, I've sent it to you, and I've also started recording video footage. If you call the police, our current state will probably confirm that I'm a criminal, right?"

Mo Mo's words made Kuroyukihime suddenly open her eyes. She looked at Mo Mo's naked body. Could it be that Mo Mo took off his clothes just for this?

To leave no way out?
