Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Although I wasn't as handsome as Mo Mo is now back then, I was still a good-looking young man.

"It seems, children, you've made up your minds. Momo, what are you waiting for? The bride is waiting for your ring."

Momo took out the ring box, but Asuna stared at it in a daze, her face turning pale. This puzzled Fukuyama, who wondered if she was too excited.

That must be it!

Fukuyama gave Asuna an encouraging look and said, "Alright, now that you've exchanged rings, you're truly husband and wife. Even though this is just a game, I can see that you two are truly in love. When you return to the real world in the future, don't forget to include this old man, Fukuyama, in your wedding!"

Asuna forced a smile and said, "Okay."

After saying that, Asuna reached for the ring box, but her face grew even paler.

Some things seem destined to happen.

"and many more."

A slightly high-pitched voice came from afar, standing out conspicuously in the silent crowd.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a black-clad swordsman named Ya Wang, who was wearing a black cloak, had hair as sharp as steel cones, and an inverted triangle face. He looked nothing like a good person and was also a part-time righteous person.

"Ya Wang, what brings him here?"

"Isn't it normal for him to come? He's the leader of another major guild, so he should be here at this time no matter what. Even if he had some unpleasantness with Momo, that's all in the past, right?"

"Wait a minute, it's not about whether he comes or not! Even if he comes, it's just late. Stopping the wedding vows now doesn't seem right at all, does it?"

"Now that you mention it, it's true. What exactly is this Ya Wang up to? Could it be... that he's going to cause trouble?"

"No way... He's gone mad to cause trouble at this time."

"It's not just a matter of possibility, he's already causing trouble!"

The crowd murmured amongst themselves, many glaring at Ya Wang with hostility. Even the old man Fukuyama, who was officiating the wedding, showed anger on his face, staring at Ya Wang and saying, "Kid, whatever you have to say, we'll talk about it later. If you speak now, don't blame this old man for getting angry!"

Ya Wang's eyelids twitched. He could tell that the old man Fukuyama had no fighting ability. But if the old man really raised his sword and slashed at him, what other reaction could he have besides running away?

He'd be condemned to death if he took action! But who told him to be a righteous person?

"King Ya, whatever you're trying to do, this isn't the place for you to speak."

Akiel stepped forward, followed by Klein, whose face was ashen. Akiel said, "Hey, you! If you're here to drink, I, Klein, welcome you. I'd even like to have a good drink with you. But if you're here to cause trouble, I won't let you get away with it."

"bass--"

With a buzzing sound, several female knights beside Lier drew their swords and said, "Who cares what he wants? How dare he disturb the Guild Master's wedding! Fight him out!"

Faced with the accusations from the crowd, Ya Wang remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic whatsoever.

Just then, a group of players wearing SAO Liberation Corps cloaks walked out from behind him, forming a formation of several hundred people.

Everyone's expression changed.

What are they trying to do?!

A formation of a few hundred people is no match for the more than three thousand people present, but this is the SAO Liberation Corps. Although their achievements are not as great as Momo's Watcher Knights, they still conquered more than one-third of the floors. Their strength is beyond doubt!

Moreover, what are they trying to do by setting up such a grand display at Momo and Asuna's wedding? Are they trying to sabotage it?

"King Ya, if you don't give me an explanation, I will never let you go!"

Klein's face was ashen as he took out his katana from his inventory. He would never let anyone who dared to disturb his friend get away with it.

"No, Klein, I'm more curious about something else."

Agil stopped the agitated Klein and looked in another direction.

Author's Note:

Book Recommendation: A cute little one kept pestering me to recommend a book, so I had to. Apparently, it's based on the author's personal experiences, a story about things like a sister and mother that can't be told. The title is "My Sister's Time," and as for the content, you know what I mean... Seriously, I'm speechless...

085 He's an accomplice!

"Hey, what do you mean, Agil? Shouldn't we be united against this troublemaker? What are you looking at again?!"

Klein complained to Agil, but Agil grabbed Klein's head and turned him in another direction.

"Klein, don't forget. Although there are thousands of people celebrating here right now, the Watcher Knights are still faithfully standing guard. Which direction did the Fang King come from? Why haven't the guards there come to report?"

"What you're saying... does that mean they were actually killed? Ya Wang and his gang actually dared to kill people! Ah, that's not right, none of them have yellow or red names."

"Snapped!"

Agil slammed his fist on Klein's head, making him dizzy and causing Klein to become angry. He yelled, "What are you doing, you big black guy!"

"Of course, it's to sharpen your brain and give you an IQ +12 skill buff. Think carefully about the direction that Ya Wang and the others came from, who was defending that direction, and which direction we came from?"

Klein was taken aback, then seemed to realize something, and his expression turned extremely grim.

"That direction... is where Kirito is defending, right?"

Agil didn't answer, but that was tantamount to acquiescence. Klein's face flushed crimson, and the veins on his hand gripping the knife bulged.

"No, we can't be sure yet. I'd rather believe it's like this..."

Klein roared at Ya-o with a cold face, "Ya-o, what did you do to Kirito? If I find out that you laid a hand on them, even if you are the so-called SAO Liberation Corps, I will not let you off the hook."

Hearing Klein's threat, Ya Wang subconsciously grinned and laughed, but he immediately suppressed his smile, put on a serious and wise look, and said, "Don't worry, Klein, not only did we not do anything to Kirito, but Kirito took the initiative to help us."

"What!" Agil's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Klein shouted, brandishing his katana. "Did you have them surrounded? Or did you use some kind of potion to paralyze them?"

Ya Wang crossed his arms and did not refute Klein. In these days, Ya Wang had undoubtedly grown a lot and understood a principle.

Empty words are often the least convincing, especially when his image is somewhat unpopular.

"Kirito-kun, if you don't come out, I'm afraid your friends will gang up on me. I'm sorry, although I said I wouldn't let you show your face."

As Ya Wang spoke softly, a baby-faced player stepped out from the crowd behind him and said, "Ya Wang, don't worry about it. I've made up my mind. No matter what, I'll get to a conclusion."

Even if... my relationship with my friends deteriorates a little, it won't matter too much.

"Is that so? Thank you for your support, Kirito-kun. We will work together to liberate SAO, and we will remember your contribution!"

As usual, Ya Wang recited lines he had memorized dozens of times, trying to seduce Kirito. However, Kirito was not in the mood to listen to these words. His face was a little pale, but he stubbornly walked out and stood in front of everyone.

"Kirito, Kirito! Don't tell me it really is you!"

Klein gritted his teeth, his hand gripping the hilt of his knife. He had no redeeming qualities, except for his deep affection for his friends; therefore, he would never betray them, much less allow them to do so.

"I'm only giving you one chance. If you don't have a reason, I, Klein, am your mortal enemy today!"

Kirito stared at Klein in astonishment, never expecting Klein to have such a strong reaction.

"Calm down, Klein. Kirito, if someone betrays you, Klein will stand up for you too. So, Kirito, you have to give us an explanation, otherwise, even I can't persuade Klein."

"And I will stand on the same side as him."

Akiel's large axe also appeared, and not only him, but the players he led also re-equipped with their weapons, and the current situation quickly became tense.

"Kirito, I also want you to tell me what's going on. If I remember correctly, you should be in charge of guarding that direction. Why don't I know about this? When did you have the right to make decisions on your own and let a group of people whose friend or foe is unknown in?"

While drinking with the players in the guild, the usually low-key Tilber stepped forward and directly criticized Kirito's mistake, causing Kirito's composure to vanish considerably.

“But, but Tilberu, I have enough reasons, I…”

"That's no reason for you to act on your own! Do you have sufficient reason to act on your own when attacking the boss? If your actions cause widespread conflict, can you bear the responsibility?"

"I……"

Kirito was truly speechless. He then realized that his actions had indeed been too rash and a presumptuous act.

However, Kirito failed to notice the similar smiles on the lips of Tilber and Fang.

"Alright, Kirito, this is the last time, but we have to punish you. Touichi, you will temporarily take over Kirito's position as group leader."

"Huh?" The player with the goatee named Dongyi pointed at himself in surprise. He looked at Kirito, who nodded at him, seemingly agreeing.

"Well, alright, but now that this matter is settled, Tilberu, I still hope you can reconsider."

Tilberu nodded and said, "I will handle the specifics together with the president."

After speaking, Tilberu turned to Momo, looking at Momo who still had a calm smile on his face, and said, "President, do you think this approach is acceptable?"

Mo Mo's smile held a hint of coldness as he said, "Alright, Tilberu, haven't you finished taking care of everything? You can usually handle things as you please, so you don't need to ask me for permission now. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem too deliberate?"

Tilberu was startled, then lowered his head with a stern face and said, "I was presumptuous, Chairman. Since you are here today, it should be your responsibility to handle this."

Momo offered Asuna's hand, but Asuna pulled sharply, trying to pull Momo back. Momo, however, smiled and shook his head at Asuna.

"Believe me."

Asuna hesitated for a long time before letting go of her hand, her face even paler, but her eyes held a hint of determination.

"Okay, I believe you, Momo."

"Young man, keep it up! I believe in you. Drive away these demons and monsters!"

Old Man Fukuyama also took out his weapon, a novice spear, and brandished it. His face was flushed with anger; he truly hated these troublemakers.

Couldn't we talk about any conflicts later? Why did you have to cause trouble at the wedding? Are you crazy?

Just because it's a game doesn't mean you can do whatever you want! Disrupting someone's wedding? You might end up being a virgin for life!

Under everyone's silent gaze, Momo stepped off the platform, walked to Tilberu's side, and said lightly.

"Tilberu, since you've decided to just stand by and watch, neither supporting me nor reporting to me, then just continue watching. Don't worry, I won't take my anger out on you."

Tilberu's eyes widened suddenly, his face turned pale, and he choked up, wanting to say something, but his body trembled.

Mo Mo... has he seen through everything?

"President...I..."

Momo ignored Tilberu. Since he dared to make small moves even when controlled by the trading power, letting him live in fear for a while would be a small punishment.

"Mo Mo, no, President."

Seeing Mo Mo come to his side, Kirito's expression changed, but he finally calmed down and said, "President, I hope you can talk to Ya Wang. If it is proven that I was wrong afterward, I will apologize to you. I am willing to accept punishment in any form."

"As long as you can explain all of this clearly."

After saying that, Kirito stepped aside, his eyes still fixed on Momo. Momo met his gaze without hesitation and said, "Actually, you've already made up your mind, haven't you? You've always trusted your intuition, and maybe sometimes it's right. But sometimes, Kirito-kun, trusting your intuition too much can actually blind you!"

Kirito's expression remained unchanged, clearly indicating that Momo's words had little effect.
