Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Momo gave a thumbs up to Nakamura Yuri for her composure and rationality. A girl like her is worthy of being the leader of the SSS group. Apart from not having any special abilities, her own qualities make her worthy of being an elite among humans.

Even now, she was not provoked by anything Mo Mo was showing, and was still trying to extract information from Mo Mo to assess the situation.

However, how could Mo Mo not see through Nakamura Yuri's thoughts? It's just that what Nakamura Yuri desires now is exactly the same thing that Mo Mo wants to do, so Mo Mo might as well go with the flow.

"Regarding all of this, I think we can find some time to talk about it properly tomorrow. After all, this concerns the principles of your SSS group and the fate of all of you. Of course, before that, you can also discuss it carefully and think about how to deal with all of this."

Mo Mo beckoned slightly, and Tachibana Kanade immediately jogged to Mo Mo's side. Mo Mo pulled Tachibana Kanade close, put his hands on her shoulders, and said, "Now you believe it too, Kanade isn't an angel. What everyone faces in this world is a great question, one that everyone should think about, isn't it?"

"Go back and get a good night's rest. Then, tomorrow, with enough determination, we'll meet again, and I'll answer all your questions then."

This time, it was Nakamura Yuri's turn to be stunned. She had witnessed Mo Mo's actions the whole time and thought that Mo Mo would once again try to confuse her with some strange and bizarre arguments.

However, to Nakamura Yuri's complete surprise, all that awaited her was Mo Mo's sincerity, a treatment that was completely different from that given to Tachibana Kanade and Fujiwara no Mokou.

Yuri Nakamura was filled with turmoil and her mind was in turmoil. What did Mo Mo's attitude towards her mean?

This was a question that Yuri Nakamura clearly couldn't answer right away. However, Mo Mo didn't intend to keep her thinking about it, and said, "Oh right, remember, you absolutely can't touch that flame symbol icon inside! That's something that will trigger your nightmares. Unless you want to relive the most painful things in your life, it's best to stay away from it."

After saying that, Momo took Tachibana Kanade's hand, and Konno Moyuki also came up with a smile, taking Momo's arm. The three of them left Nakamura Yuri's side and came to Fujiwara no Mokou's side.

Fujiwara no Mokou's lips twitched as she watched Mo Mo with one beautiful girl in each hand. Under normal circumstances, she would definitely have been tempted to attack a man who seemed so fickle.

But now, Mo Mo is different.

After all, Tachibana Kanade and Konno Yuuki were willing to stay by Momo's side, and even seemed to enjoy it. Besides, Momo was Fujiwara no Mokou's older brother at the time. Although the older brother's words and actions were problematic, how could brothers ignore their feelings for each other because of that?

Although there doesn't seem to be any brotherly bond between Momo and Fujiwara no Mokou to measure all of this.

"Brother Mo is so lucky to have this idiot trust you so much. I tried to communicate with her before, but it was so difficult that it was maddening. I was always the one talking, and she just listened like a block of wood."

Fujiwara no Mokou complained, then looked at Konno no Yuuki and asked, "What's your name, sir?"

"Hi, I'm Konno Yuuki, you can add me as Yuuki. I'm your older brother's sister, Mokou, you're your older brother's brother, so should I call you second brother?"

Fujiwara no Mokou coughed violently, and Konno no Wataru's address of "second brother" almost made her suffocate from the difficulty in breathing. Just as she was trying to catch her breath and refuse Konno no Wataru's suggestion, Konno no Wataru said directly, "Since Mokou's second brother doesn't object, then Yuuki has another big brother."

Konno Mokuki quickly came to Fujiwara no Mokou's side, hugged her arm tightly, and said, "Second brother, second brother, give the order, who should we kill next?"

As Fujiwara no Mokou looked at Konno Mokuyuki's innocent smile with a twitching mouth, she confirmed that this girl, who had the same beautiful purple hair as Nakamura Yuri, was different from Momo and Nakamura Yuri, and had a pure heart.

Although her heart was in Momo's hands, Fujiwara no Mokou was momentarily at a loss for how to refuse Konno Mokuki's genuine, heartfelt joy and expectation.

"...Fine, whatever you want! But don't keep calling me 'Second Brother' all the time. We look about the same age, so why don't you just call me Meihong?"

"That won't do."

Konno Muneki immediately shook his head and said, "Second brother is second brother, just like I call my eldest brother, it's a necessary form of address."

Helpless, Fujiwara no Mokou turned to Momo, instinctively seeking his help. After all, it seemed only Momo could control her younger sister.

Unfortunately, Fujiwara no Mokou greatly underestimated Momo. Before Fujiwara no Mokou could even speak, Momo had already grabbed her arm and said, "It's just that Yuuki is polite, Mokou, you should accept it. You know, you're our second oldest, the most important and crucial second oldest! If you distance yourself from Yuuki because of a form of address, that would be a real loss."

"But, 'second brother' and such... and 'second son,' could you please use the right words..."

Fujiwara no Mokou's face was contorted with grief; this was her last struggle and attempt to explain. Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, Momo pulled her away.

"Hey, what are you doing? Where are you taking me? Didn't you just say it was late and you wanted to go home and rest?"

Fujiwara no Mokou had already given up resisting and accepted being labeled as the second oldest. She had originally planned to go back to her dorm and have some peace and quiet to sort out what had happened that day. But now, what kind of trouble was Momo up to?

"What are you doing? Didn't you say you needed to rest?"

Mo Mo widened her eyes, blinked innocently, and said, "I just chased away Renji Nakamura Yuri so I could rest. I'm exhausted after a long day and desperately need to find a place to sleep."

"Ah...is that so?"

Fujiwara no Mokou looked completely bewildered and said, "If that's the case, then why are you dragging me along? Why don't you just go back to your own base? That huge base in the sky must have the most comfortable beds, right?"

Fujiwara no Mokou's words sounded perfectly normal, but Mo Mo directly refuted them, saying, "How can that be? I finally got to see you, Second Brother, how can I go back like this?"

"I'm going to your house, second brother, so you can show me some hospitality!"

044 A Best Brother for a Lifetime

Fujiwara no Mokou was stunned by Mo Mo's words. She seemed to have never imagined that Mo Mo would make such a request!

How could he possibly make such a request?

What was he thinking? This request is absolutely insane, completely... reasonable?

Fujiwara no Mokou's lips twitched. Her emotions told her to grab Momo by the neck and teach him a lesson, but reason told her that she should do as Momo said.

After all, Momo was Fujiwara no Mokou's brother. Her brother had come from afar, perhaps even from a different world. Given this distance and the vastness of the world he represented, shouldn't Fujiwara no Mokou extend the proper hospitality?

Under such circumstances, how could Fujiwara no Mokou allow Momo to return to his own aerial fortress to rest while she herself went back to her residence to sleep soundly? This was a completely heartless act.

As a man, putting righteousness first is a basic requirement of being a decent human being... what a load of rubbish!

Reason had snapped at this point, unable to suppress Fujiwara no Mokou's impending emotional outburst. A burning passion threatened to erupt from her body, raging like flames, incinerating and purifying everything before her!

She's a girl, not a man, so why should she care about prioritizing loyalty?

Momo is clearly up to no good. Fujiwara no Mokou was already wary of him from the very beginning when she tolerated him as a brother.

However, due to her longing for past memories and her desire to escape death, Fujiwara no Mokou could not refuse Momo's request. Moreover, Momo was not asking her to do anything absolutely unacceptable; he was merely asking her to be his brother.

Well, if it's just about being brothers, Fujiwara no Mokou is definitely acceptable.

Since he's always been treated like a man, he might as well act a bit more manly in front of Mo Mo this time, and show some manly demeanor. Even if it's a small price to pay for the rebirth of the past and the future, it's definitely no problem.

However, all of this is predicated on the premise that Mo Mo truly treats her as a brother and has no ulterior motives. While Fujiwara no Mokou can act like a man in front of Mo Mo, she will never forget that she is a girl!

This is Fujiwara no Mokou's reserve, and she will definitely maintain this reserve!

Thinking of this, Fujiwara no Mokou's bloodshot eyes seemed to turn dangerous. She narrowed her eyes as she looked at Mo Mo, trying her best to suppress her anger while judging Mo Mo's motives.

"Don't joke around."

Fujiwara no Mokou pointed to herself and said, "Brother Mo, it's true I can be your brother, but I'm a woman, a woman! If you don't understand what 'woman' means, then let this... never mind, let the third sister teach you the meaning of 'woman' properly!"

"Although I wouldn't mind treating you well, I'm just a student here, and I can't really offer you anything at this hour. Do you intend to stay overnight at my place?"

"Besides, how could the school allow such a thing to happen? We are students, and we must abide by school rules and regulations!"

Fujiwara no Mokou crossed her arms and said, "Even if we make a deal, I'll still be your brother and won't do anything unnecessary. Don't even think about using this opportunity to do anything."

Seeing Fujiwara no Mokou give a long list of reasons in a serious manner, especially considering the way she was suppressing her anger, Mo Mo couldn't help but find it amusing and said, "What are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"

"Of course you're my brother. It has nothing to do with gender. A brother is a brother, a lifelong brother. Why would I do anything unnecessary?"

"As for the actual issues you're worried about..."

Momo pushed Tachibana Kanade in front of him, grinned, and said, "Kanade has already told me about your and Kaguya's situation, Mokou. Are you still going to pretend to be an ordinary student in front of me now?"

Fujiwara no Mokou looked at Tachibana Kanade in surprise, her face full of disbelief, and murmured, "Kanade, even if you believe in Momo now, you can't completely abandon your responsibilities as student council president in an instant and forget all your past principles, can you?"

"You are the guardian of the school rules, the last vestige of conscience. Shouldn't you be protecting me at this time?"

"Hey, I'm a student too! What's with you not protecting my rights at a time like this, but instead siding with Mo Mo?!"

Momo looked at Tachibana Kanade, hoping that she would answer herself, and Tachibana Kanade did not disappoint Momo. She shook her head slightly as a form of objection to Fujiwara no Mokou's words.

"You're wrong. It's true that I'm the student council president, and it's also true that I want to maintain order at school and let everyone have a normal and happy campus life, but that's not what I want."

Tachibana Kanade's words were completely unexpected by Fujiwara no Mokou. She stared at Tachibana Kanade in astonishment, as if this silly, emotionless little angel in front of her had thoughts deep in her heart that even she could not understand.

“I did all this simply because I had to. Someone had to step up and become the student council president to guide the order of everything, otherwise the worst consequences would occur.”

At this point, Tachibana Kanade's already fair cheeks turned even paler, except this time it was a pale white from the cold.

Mo Mo took Tachibana Kanade's hand and pulled her into his arms, warming her back with his chest. This made Tachibana Kanade's face less cold and more rosy.

Despite her voice being a little off-key, Tachibana Kanade bravely continued speaking this time, revealing all the words she had kept hidden in her heart.

Only Momo, who possesses the power to turn the world around and bring it complete salvation, could gain Tachibana Kanade's trust and give her the courage to face all of this.

"In this afterlife, if a new student doesn't disappear to fulfill their last wish, they will only face two outcomes. Either they become the student council president and wait forever, or they are swallowed up by this world and become one of the NPCs, which is even more terrifying than disappearing."

Tachibana Kanade pursed her lips and said, "I've seen it many times. Some people who can never fulfill their last wishes have an ever-growing influence on this world. In the end, they are swallowed up by this world and there is no trace of their existence. They become empty shells of NPCs."

"At that time I realized that someone had to stand up and stop this from happening, so that everyone could happily accept the world's arrangements and live a fulfilling campus life."

“That way, everyone can disappear from this world and leave it. That outcome is much better than being swallowed up by this world.”

At this point, Tachibana Kanade paused for a few seconds before saying, "This is what I thought and what I did before. I thought I was helping everyone, but... but!"

Kanade Tachibana suddenly became agitated. Momo gently patted Kanade's head and comforted her, "Okay, I understand, Kanade, I understand. No matter the outcome, you are doing a good deed, aren't you?"

"Even if those who disappear from this world truly die, at least they fulfilled their last wishes because of your help and can peacefully go to heaven. Otherwise, those swallowed up by this world wouldn't even have the right to die, would they?"

At this point, Momo glanced at Fujiwara no Mokou, met her gaze as she stared in shock, nodded, pointed at Tachibana Kanade, and gestured for Fujiwara no Mokou to comfort Tachibana Kanade.

Fujiwara no Mokou's lips twitched again. Should she be the one comforting Tachibana Kanade at this moment?

Why is no one comforting her?

So, in this afterlife, instead of being carefree and fearless, Fujiwara no Mokou actually faces such a difficult situation?

Either you die completely, or you don't even have the right to die. Neither of these is a good ending!

She also wanted someone to comfort her!

Even if... even if it's her unreliable older brother, Mo Mo is fine too, we can still make do!

However, seeing Mo Mo tightly hugging the dejected neutral Kanade, Fujiwara no Mokou knew she wouldn't enjoy such treatment. After all, she was a man, Mo Mo's brother; what kind of talk was it to be hugged by a man's brother?

Damn it... It's so sad to think about it like this. I was just planning to use this reason to reject Mo Mo...

Fujiwara no Mokou sighed and said, "Kanade, none of this is your fault. On the contrary, you have done the best you could."

“In that case… I must apologize for some things that happened between me and Kaguya before. We really misunderstood you back then.”

Upon hearing this, Tachibana Kanade, who was feeling down, quickly shook her head and said, "That's not your fault. Actually, it's all my fault for not being able to communicate smoothly with everyone. You've all been very kind to me. The people I should apologize to the most are Nakamura Yuri and the others."

"If only I had told them everything sooner..."

Even if you tell them, those who don't believe you still won't believe you.

Fujiwara no Mokou interrupted Tachibana Kanade, saying, "Actually, Kaguya and I don't really trust you either... but unlike Nakamura Yuri, we won't directly oppose you."

"To put it bluntly, Yuri Nakamura is just born to rebel against something. Unless she resolves her inner conflict, even if she doesn't target you, Kanade, she will target someone else. Don't worry too much about her past behavior anymore. Haven't you basically reconciled now?"

Fujiwara no Mokou also joined the head-patting army, but unfortunately she obviously didn't have much experience in head-patting, and instantly made Tachibana Kanade's hair messy.

Fujiwara no Mokou gave an awkward smile, wanting to say something, but then she saw Momo skillfully and gently brush Tachibana Kanade's head, immediately restoring Tachibana Kanade's hairstyle to its original state.
