Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

"Mo Mo!"

The panicked Kuroyukihime came to Momo's side and stroked Momo's cheek, but all she felt was the coldness of the steel helmet.

Unable to see Mo Mo's face or feel his warmth, an extreme sense of panic swept over her, causing Kuroyukihime to tremble slightly, even the butterfly wings on her back started to flutter.

What exactly happened?!

Why was she the only one who sped up?

What on earth is going on here?!

"It seems you really like Mo Mojun, Miss Kuroba Yuki."

Just then, a steady middle-aged male voice came from behind, startling Kuroyukihime.

Kuroyukihime instinctively looked in the direction of the sound, which was in the direction of the Green King.

The Green King's imaginary form was also enveloped in a pale blue halo, and he was frozen in place. But just then, a figure rose from the pit sealed by the white, murky substance on the ground.

This was a tall, thin young man in a white lab coat, probably close to thirty years old. His face was quite ordinary, but the moment he appeared, a suffocating sense of heaviness washed over you.

He was enveloped in a vast amount of quantum light, and the white coat he wore seemed to be woven from that light. His eyes also sparkled with a crystalline light, like the twinkling of stars in the night sky.

This person... to Kuroyukihime, could no longer be called a human being; he should be described as something else entirely.

A certain... different type of life form.

"You are……"

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kayaba Akihiko. You've probably heard of me from Momo-kun, but whenever he mentions me, it's never anything good. I wonder how many times I've been criticized because of him?"

As he spoke, Kayaba Akihiko's lips curled into a slight smile, a smile that eased Kuroyukihime's tension a little.

Of course, what truly relaxed Kuroyukihime was her speculation about the relationship between Momo and Kayaba Akihiko.

This person seems to know Momo... and considering the conversation between Momo and him, the two shouldn't be enemies, right?

Whether Kuroyukihime's guess is right or wrong, only Momo and Kayaba Akihiko, the parties involved, probably know.

The two were once complete enemies, but by the end of the Sword Art Online world, they had already made peace.

Now, the two have reunited across worlds in the Accelerated World, and for Kayaba Akihiko, this is a reunion spanning seven thousand years.

Perhaps, after such a long period of time, for Kayaba Akihiko, Momo's identity has changed from a former rival to a familiar face from his hometown.

"Um... Mr. Kayaba Akihiko, what exactly happened? And what's wrong with Momo? Is Momo alright?"

Kayaba Akihiko looked at Kuroyukihime's nervous expression and tapped his forehead. He was trying hard to recall everything about Mo Mo. It seemed that Mo Mo... already had two girlfriends?

This memory is far too distant. Even though Kayaba Akihiko is unlikely to lose his memory now, he still needs to retrieve it from the deepest depths.

Oh, right!

Their names seem to be Asuna... and Argo, both of them are very pretty and energetic girls!

In other words, this is the third one?

Hmm...should we tell Kuroyukihime the truth?

He just got scammed again, he's furious!

Can't we just trick Momo this once?

I'm so excited! I'm waiting online, can anyone answer me?

Unfortunately, no one could answer Kayaba Akihiko. He rationally chose to suppress his emotions, and the jubilant light emanating from his body subsided.

"As you can see, we are in an accelerating world, experiencing a second acceleration, a second acceleration of a thousand times. That is to say, our current acceleration is a thousand squared, a million times acceleration."

Despite already having a guess in her mind, Kuroyukihime was still taken aback when she actually heard Kayaba Akihiko's words.

Is such a thing even possible?

"You must be wondering if this is even possible, right? Theoretically, it's impossible. Neither the function of the neural connection device nor the limits of the brain's consciousness can withstand an acceleration of one million times."

"Unless I design an enhanced neural connection device, coupled with the assistance of professionals, it would be impossible to achieve a million-fold acceleration on a living human body."

"Of course, you can rest assured that I haven't released this technology. After all, a thousand-fold acceleration is enough to disrupt the entire social progress of humanity, and I don't want humanity to be thrown into chaos and destroyed because of my technology."

Kuroyukihime listened quietly, and although she couldn't believe it, everything in front of her proved that what Kayaba Akihiko said was true.

Besides himself, there was also the mysterious individual in front of him who seemed to be the developer of Accelerated World. Everything around him, including Momo and his sister, had come to a standstill.

The thousandfold difference in speed made them appear as if they were still.

"What I can guarantee now is that this technology will not harm your health. And right now there are only the two of us, so there are no other factors that could harm you."

Kayaba Akihiko proudly raised his head.

He certainly had reason to be proud; after the Sword Art Online world, he had once again established his own empire. And this time, thanks to the acceleration technology, he had ample time to handle everything.

Now, he is quite close to achieving his technological goals, and it's time to reap the rewards.

This time, finally no one could stop him!

"Is that so? I don't think so!"

127. Blind as a dog, exhausted at heart.

Just then, a familiar voice rang in his mind, making Kayaba Akihiko's face full of strangeness.

That voice, that joyful and warm yet authoritative voice, he could never forget. Without that voice, his future might have been completely different, or he might not even exist in this world at all.

This is Mo Mo's voice.

He looked in Mo Mo's direction, and the pale blue light on Mo Mo's body suddenly trembled violently.

The shimmering light resembled the surface of porcelain, with cracks appearing on it. From these cracks, beams of quantum light burst forth. Under the impact of the quantum light, the pale blue light rapidly faded and finally disappeared without a trace.

Mo Mo raised his head, his stiff body and drawn-out tone gradually returning to normal. His armor also crumbled, revealing him as Mo Mo in a white robe.

“I’m not at all comfortable letting my princess be with that old man of yours.”

Mo Mo was freed from the blue stagnation, causing the eyes of Kuroyukihime beside him to instantly gleam with a bright light.

"Mo Mo!"

Kuroyukihime threw herself into Momo's arms, hugging his neck tightly. Her slightly cool face pressed against Momo's, and the slight tremor in her body quickly disappeared.

"What, Xiaoxue, was it just a hug?"

Mo Mo originally only meant to make a joke, but Kuroyukihime, upon hearing this, immediately offered her warm lips.

The lips, cold and tinged with the bitterness of tears, were instantly washed away by the clear stream, and sweetness began to burst forth from between them. The warm touch ignited a flame in their hearts, quickly warming their bodies.

Mo Mo looked at Kuroyukihime with some surprise at her tightly closed eyes and the slight blush on her pale face.

This was Kuroyukihime's initiative!

Despite being too shy to move and completely at Mo Mo's mercy, Kuroyukihime, who could satisfy all of Mo Mo's desires, fascinated Mo Mo. However, a proactive Kuroyukihime could also ignite Mo Mo's passion.

Since it was Kuroyukihime's initiative, she needed to vent her emotions, so as the princess's knight, he naturally had to take on this responsibility without hesitation.

That writhing monster, I, Momo, will subdue it!

Kayaba Akihiko, who was standing to the side, was initially surprised that Momo had suddenly returned to normal from his stagnant state.

This is a state of one million times acceleration. Mo Mo forcefully increased his acceleration from one thousand times to one million times, which is even more incredible than a normal person breaking through to the accelerated world.

At least from Kayaba Akihiko's perspective, he couldn't immediately grasp the underlying principle.

However, what happened next made Kayaba Akihiko, who was immersed in exploring and thinking about the principles, both annoyed and amused.

This million-fold acceleration isn't something you can just pick up off the ground; it requires a massive amount of resources as a foundation!

He accelerated a million times, not so you two could flirt!

Kayaba Akihiko shook his head helplessly and turned his face away.

He decided to maintain a bit of gentlemanly conduct. The two young people—well, Kayaba Akihiko wasn't sure about Momo's age anymore, but at least Kuroyukihime was still a young girl.

He understood that emotional outbursts needed an outlet. He didn't mind putting aside his gentlemanly conduct for it, even if it meant wasting some energy.

However, after waiting a few seconds, Kayaba Akihiko realized something was wrong.

Why are the two of them not only not stopping, but their voices seem to be getting louder and louder? What's with that rustling sound of their clothes? Are they completely ignoring me?

Could it be that a real-life sex scene is unfolding behind his back?

"Cough cough!"

Left with no other choice, Kayaba Akihiko could only cough twice to make his presence known.

However, no one paid him any attention.

A vein bulged on his head.

"I've already experienced Mo Mojun's shamelessness. Miss Kuroba Yuki, is it really okay to ignore an outsider like me?"

"what!"

This time, Kayaba Akihiko amplified his voice several times over, finally making sure Kuroyukihime could hear him. Kuroyukihime then snapped out of her daze, exclaimed in surprise, and stomped hard on Mo Mo's foot.

It turned out that the rustling sound of the two people's clothes was made by Mo Mo deliberately rubbing the two wings of Kuroyukihime's butterfly evening dress.

At first, Kuroyukihime didn't understand, but now she realized that Momo was deliberately teasing the middle-aged man.

Mo Mo smiled and shrugged, then helped Kuroyukihime tidy her appearance while Kuroyukihime looked on shyly, avoiding Mo Mo's gaze.

After quietly confirming that her expression was normal, Kuroyukihime turned around and said, "Um, Mr. Kayaba Akihiko, I'm sorry, that's fine now."

Kayaba Akihiko then turned his head. He politely avoided looking at Kuroyukihime, who was bowing her head, and instead looked at Momo, whose expression remained unchanged and was unlikely to change, and who was even smiling with her head up.

"Truly... as charming as ever, Mo Mojun. Is your skin ten meters thick?"

"How could that be? It's only a millimeter thicker than yours."

"Openly admitting that you're more shameless than me, that's typical Mo Mojun. Perhaps that's why you've surpassed me?"

"No, the reason I beat you is purely because of the superiority of my intelligence and because I'm more handsome."

Kayaba Akihiko smirked and said, "Still that same impolite tone. But thankfully we're not enemies today. Momo-kun, I'm curious, how did you break through to this million-speed acceleration state?"
