Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Momo and Asuna have never left the public eye. They can often be seen entering and leaving various shops together, looking like a couple.

No, they are a couple.

As a couple already recognized by the public, people often discuss when they will get married.

Although this is just a game, it seems that everyone will be living here for a long time, and several young couples have already gotten married, even though they haven't bought houses.

Therefore, when the news of Momo and Asuna's upcoming marriage spread, everyone instinctively gasped in surprise.

Whether it's surprise, admiration, jealousy, or gossip, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, the fact that the two of them are finally getting married seems to have put an end to a question in the minds of many players. At the same time, everyone is even more interested, after all, Momo and Asuna are not only a couple, but also top players. How exciting will it be for players of this caliber to get married?

What followed caused an even greater uproar among everyone!

According to Argo the Rat, Momo welcomes anyone who wants to bless her and Asuna to come over, and in return, he will provide unlimited food and drinks so that everyone can have a grand party!

At first, no one believed the news, but when everyone saw the members of the Watcher Knights going in and out of the food stores on each floor, buying all kinds of food and drinks, and only leaving when their inventory was full, they were completely excited!

This is actually true!

How much money does Mo Mo actually have?

Many players from the Watchers Knights asked Tilberu curiously, but Tilberu smiled and didn't answer. He could only dispel everyone's doubts by saying, "It definitely wasn't funded by our guild. I have the accounts here. If you don't believe me, you can come and take a look."

At present, Tilberu has established great prestige. After all, Momo is a hands-off manager, while Tilberu, being controlled by Momo, can only do his job honestly, which has completely stimulated Tilberu's talents.

He managed the Knights of the Watchers with great efficiency, transforming them into a disciplined and exceptionally powerful force. With almost no financial assistance from Momo, he single-handedly suppressed the King of Fangs' thousand-strong guild, the SAO Liberation Army.

Everyone immediately believed him; no one doubted him.

Tilberu had also wondered, but considering Momo's abilities, if he wanted money, he only needed to make a transaction with those wealthy players, and they would definitely hand over Cole willingly.

With that thought in mind, Tilberu felt relieved.

Indeed, that was the case. Momo had previously used his trading power primarily to enhance his strength; as for Cole, he only needed enough. Currently, he had visited many people and earned a considerable sum of money from them, already exceeding one million Cole.

Even if everyone is present, based on a budget of 100 kroner per person, it would be enough to buy five basic drinks and two average cakes. Such a reserve would be more than sufficient.

On the seventh day, as dawn broke, more and more players gathered toward the 22nd floor. With the dual guidance of the Watcher Knights and members of the Rose Garden, no player went astray.

Guild members who initially had some complaints about the task are now extremely grateful to Momo, after all, she is surrounded by girls from Rose Garden!

Thanks to the close relationship between the two guilds in the past and now, the girls working with them didn't seem particularly awkward. Instead, they chatted casually, which was enough to bring tears to the eyes of these strong men who had been venting their energy on monsters for months.

As a result, all the girls from the Rose Garden who came out to help were treated like princesses, which made them feel even better about the Watchers Knights, even though they were not used to it.

"This is what a knight should be like!" Many girls blushed slightly as they thought this.

"It seems that the weddings of Momo and Asuna will also spark a trend of love and marriage in Aincrad."

Agil and Klein, along with their respective teams, arrived at the 22nd floor.

"However, there are fewer people than expected, maybe three or four thousand at most?"

Klein was somewhat puzzled, but Agil denied it, saying, "That's already a lot. After all, not everyone is active, and many players haven't even left the first floor yet. These three or four thousand people are all the active players right now who have reached the 22nd floor."

"Now that you mention it, it's true. What a terrifying amount of influence they have! But I knew they were going to take this far. Today, I'm going to get Momo drunk!"

As he spoke, Klein clapped his hands and laughed. He had been "unhappy" with Mo Mo for a long time. Mo Mo was handsome, had a beautiful girlfriend, was arrogant in real life, and was also powerful in the game. Was there anything that Grandpa Klein could do to defeat him?

Sure enough, Klein finally thought of something and said, "Momo is a minor, right? Well then, I'll have a drinking contest with him today, and I refuse to believe he can beat me!"

Agil initially wanted to stop Klein, but then changed his mind, saying, "Well, let's leave it at that for today. Do whatever you want. I don't care about you anymore."

After all, only Momo has the financial resources to host such a grand party. Today is definitely a day worth celebrating for the entire game, so let's indulge ourselves today.

"I wonder... if any players will leave the game in a few days..."

Agil muttered to himself, aiming to conquer the game without letting the players leave. This was an ideal goal, and it was increasingly becoming a source of pressure for the team leaders. Looking at the dense crowd of people, yet all smiles, Agil's pressure finally eased a bit.

"Well, there's always a way out!"

"Hey, Kirito, it's me! Didn't you see me?"

Klein didn't hear Agil's sigh; he rushed towards a male player, Kirito.

Kirito's expression was somewhat gloomy, and he only came to his senses after Klein came to his side and patted his head.

"Ah, it's Klein! You're all here today, perfect...you didn't bring any weapons?"

Kirito stared at Klein's waist in surprise and immediately asked a question.

"I put it in my inventory. It's a Japanese sword, and it's really inconvenient to hang such a long sword on my waist all the time. Agil also put his axe away. What's wrong?"

Kirito's face darkened. He thought for a few seconds before saying, "Let's take it out. After all, this is a death game. Who knows what might happen? What if there's danger?"

"Seriously, are you having a nightmare? What danger could there be on a day like this! Look, there are thousands of players here. Even the boss on this floor wouldn't dare to come over here if he saw this scene, right?"

Klein laughed exaggeratedly, grabbed Kirito, and started to leave, saying, "Alright, come with me to find Momo and see what he's like. I'm really curious about Argo..."

"Klein!"

Kirito interrupted Klein, sighed, and said, "Do whatever you want, but no matter what, I am the leader of the strategy team of the Watcher Knights. Right now, I should at least make arrangements for the players."

Klein blinked before he realized what was happening. Agil walked over and said, "Don't make things difficult for Kirito. You know how serious and responsible he is."

"Okay, okay, it's my fault. Hey, Kirito, if you don't go now, you'll have to go later! This is a big day for all of us friends. Most likely, Momo and Asuna will be like this at their real-life wedding, haha, we're definitely going to get him drunk today. I'm off!"

Looking in the direction Klein had left, Kirito frowned even more deeply, muttering to himself, "What should I do..."

A hand came from beside him and grasped Kirito's hand, saying, "Kirito-kun, you must think this through carefully. I think that many things shouldn't be decided solely based on what others say, right?"

Those around them, seeing the two holding hands, couldn't help but cheer and whistle. Kirito, being shy, immediately blushed and temporarily put aside his questions.

"Everyone, get to work! Are you all not going to listen to me, the team leader?"

"Hey, weren't we supposed to listen to Xing, and listen to my older sister's girlfriend?" A male player with a goatee teased, squinting his eyes.

"That's enough! If you try to sabotage me again, I'll send you to guard duty, Dong Yi!"

083 A well-matched couple

Meanwhile, Mo Mo stood helplessly in front of his house door. At the entrance, Yui crossed her arms and tried to look fierce.

"Yui".

Mo Mo looked sorrowful and said, "Don't you acknowledge me as your father anymore?"

"I agree!"

"Isn't your father good to you?"

"Okay!"

"Is that so? Is that how it is?"

Mo Mo straightened his suit and tie, then stood up straight and said, "Well then, Yui, move aside, I need to go in."

"no!"

"Is there absolutely no room for negotiation?"

"...Hmm...How about I ask Mom?"

Before Momo could even feel her surprise, Argo's voice came from the doorway: "Yui, keep him out! You need to know, your father is about to marry a woman who isn't your mother."

Yui's breath hitched, her eyes immediately reddening. She glared fiercely at Mo Mo and said, "Dad, I'll listen to Mom today. I absolutely won't let you in, absolutely!"

Mo Mo collapsed to his knees, looking utterly dejected, his eyes seemingly filled with sorrow and despair.

Yui pursed her lips, simply closed her eyes, turned her head away, and stood facing the door as punishment.

Anyway, she was determined not to let her unfaithful father go in!

"Oh dear, it failed. Your own daughter dislikes you. Mo Mo, you womanizer, your wicked loli-raising plan is going to be ruined, hahaha!"

Mo Mo smiled slightly, revealing an expression that said, "I know, Reimu, you must be heartbroken. But don't worry, I'll go to Gensokyo later, and I'll propose to Yukari Yakumo openly and honestly, and then marry you!"

"Who asked you to marry me? And why is it Yukari Yakumo who's proposing? Am I her daughter?" Reimu Hakurei blushed slightly, but held her head high, not letting Momo notice.

"Huh, isn't that right?"

Having had her hidden thoughts exposed by Momo, Reimu Hakurei was not about to let Momo off the hook. Enraged, she ruffled Momo's hair, making Momo wink and make a variety of expressions.

"Um, Dad, even if you're really sad and heartbroken, I still won't let you in!"

Yui thought Mo Mo was really sad, so she turned her head and added a sentence.

Seeing this, Reimu Hakurei stopped and said, "Don't worry, those two definitely won't fight right now. What are you worried about? Besides, you've already done so much, why are you still worried about the outcome?"

Mo Mo shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm worried about the outcome, but that I have absolutely no idea what the outcome will be. I'm just doing my best to love them both, but in the end, I can't predict how things will turn out."

"After all...she's still my first love, hehe!"

"Hey, you big dummy! It's shameful for a 100-year-old dead man like you to act cute, okay? And first love... who would dare to start a harem with their first love?! Okay... I'm speechless."

Reimu Hakurei also seemed a little listless, but it was unclear why. Could it be because of the wedding?

"Mo Mo, have some faith in them. You say you want to build a harem, but deep down you can't bear to hurt or deceive anyone. You've already done your best. If you continue, be careful not to go against your true nature!"

"Heroic spirits can be very troublesome once they lose their true nature."

Mo Mo's eyes gleamed as he said, "Is that so? Don't worry, I won't do anything else."

Meanwhile, in Asuna's bedroom with Momo, Asuna, dressed in an elaborate wedding gown, looked at herself in the mirror with a conflicted expression, asking the girls beside her, "Is everything really okay? Is there anything that doesn't look right? Can you check it again for me?"

“Sister Asuna,” Silica said, her face pale, “you’ve said that more than a dozen times already, and Silica has memorized it all.”

Besides Argo, there were also familiar faces like Silica and Lisbeth, as well as several older girls chosen by Lier and the Rose Garden.

One of them was a middle-aged woman with wrinkles on her forehead. She had been invited by her son to join the game just to experience it, but ended up becoming one of the few middle-aged people in the game.

"Alright, Asuna, it's beautiful! To be honest, I can hardly believe that you guys created such a beautiful wedding dress out of thin air in the game. Asuna, I assure you, you are the most beautiful bride I have ever seen."

Her words eased Asuna's furrowed brows, and Argo put his arm around Asuna's neck, saying affectionately, "This is the masterpiece of all of us who have worked hard for a week. If you don't believe me, you should believe everyone else!"

"Oh dear, what a pity, such a beautiful person is going to belong to Momo today. Ah, I want it so much, those beautiful ears... Ahh!"

"Argo!"

Argo bit Asuna's ear, causing the sensitive Asuna to jump up instantly and push Argo off her.
