Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

"ah!"

With a startled cry, Sakuya Izayoi quickly wrapped herself in a blanket, covering herself completely, and then scanned her surroundings with hostile eyes, as if searching for someone.

"No need to look anymore. Big brother would never do anything to you secretly. Think about it carefully, you know why you're like this, right?"

Seeing that everyone around her was a girl, the only suspicious thing was who was piloting the huge Knightmare. However, all the Knightmares were facing away from Izayoi Sakuya, which relieved her.

Sakuya Izayoi glanced at Marisa Kirisame beside her and noticed that although Marisa was wearing clothes, it was a type of school uniform that she had never seen before.

"Oh, this?"

Marisa Kirisame noticed Sakuya Izayoi's gaze, pointed to herself, and said with a grin, "This is supposedly the uniform of Tokiwadai School, and all the students there are rich girls with extraordinary powers. I really want to go check it out sometime!"

Seeing that Marisa Kirisame was still as carefree and cheerful as ever, Sakuya Izayoi breathed a sigh of relief, which at least proved that they were safe for the time being. At this moment, Sakuya Izayoi also remembered the scene when they were blown to pieces by the bomb she had made.

In such an explosion, neither clothing nor flesh could survive. The body may be destroyed, but it can be resurrected in the afterlife. However, the clothes would certainly be completely destroyed, which is probably why they look the way they do now.

However, although she realized that their current state did not mean that they had encountered anything, it did not change Izayoi Sakuya's assessment of their current situation.

They were already prisoners.

"Alright, alright, Sakuya, it's nothing."

Seeing Izayoi Sakuya's dejected and self-reproachful appearance, Nakamura Yuri quickly comforted her. If the truth were really as Izayoi Sakuya thought, that would be fine. But now that Nakamura Yuri was on Mo Mo's side, and Mo Mo had no intention of being angry with Izayoi Sakuya, she naturally wouldn't let Izayoi Sakuya continue to blame herself.

"Actually, things aren't too bad right now, are they? You see, at least we've confirmed Momo's powerful forces."

As she spoke, Yuri Nakamura pointed to the distant sky. Sakuya Izayoi looked in the direction Yuri Nakamura was pointing and was once again stunned.

There, a great battle was just taking place.

Countless dark shadows filled the sky, churning and roaring incessantly. Yet, within these shadows, small, spider-like machines moved at high speed. Each of their mechanical legs was like the sharpest blade, piercing into every shadow with each leap, tearing the strange creatures to shreds.

This is one of Momo's methods for clearing out the shadows. Faced with a number that has already reached 100,000 and is still surging, Momo naturally cannot do it himself, nor will he let his sisters do the work. This simple task can be left to the spider robots that Momo used in the world of Code Geass.

Facing these weak shadowy figures, the spider robots were practically mowing down enemies, with each one having already achieved a kill of a thousand.

Meanwhile, Mo Mo also noticed the direction from which the shadowy figures were constantly emerging. At first, the shadowy figures were all transformed from NPCs, coming from various corners of the school, but later, countless shadowy figures appeared to be coming from a direction deep in the forest.

From a distance, the forest looked like a hellish abyss, with countless dark shadows emerging from it, like a rift in hell spewing thick black smoke.

Currently, some Knightmare are using heavy firepower to repel the ever-emerging shadows, while the remaining shadows on campus are being annihilated by hundreds of spider robots. The scene of shadows obscuring the sky has also disappeared, and the sunlight is now shining through the devastated forest tops onto everyone.

"So, isn't Momo amazing? That's why we're not prisoners or anything, and we were only able to be rescued thanks to Momo."

As she spoke, Yuri Nakamura recounted the incident involving the dark figure to Sakuya Izayoi in a brief manner. Although Sakuya Izayoi looked shocked and unable to accept it, she still chose to believe Yuri Nakamura.

If it's Nakamura Yuri, she has no reason not to accept it.

"So don't worry, everything will be fine."

Yuri Nakamura smiled slightly and gave Sakuya Izayoi a hug. At this time, Yuri Nakamura had not yet undergone the transformation into a Heroic Spirit, but she already knew the true identities of Sakuya Izayoi and the others, which made Yuri Nakamura feel a little lost.

Because the young lady that Izayoi Sakuya should serve is not herself, but the two vampire young ladies of the Scarlet family, two little girls living in the Scarlet Devil Mansion in Gensokyo.

Although her encounter and acquaintance with Izayoi Sakuya was real, Nakamura Yuri felt that once Izayoi Sakuya regained her memories, the time they had spent together would not be enough for Izayoi Sakuya to abandon the two young ladies of the Scarlet Devil Mansion and continue to come to her side to serve her, Nakamura Yuri.

After all, all Yuri Nakamura did was pull Sakuya Izayoi, who was lost in the afterlife, out of the NPC camp and let her true nature shine through. And Sakuya, now with her true nature, would instinctively see Yuri Nakamura's group as a substitute for those two young ladies.

Yuri Nakamura's embrace was meant to be a warm one, but Sakuya Izayoi seemed to sense a chill of parting within it. She abruptly pushed Yuri away, grabbed Yuri's arm, and said, "Miss, tell me what happened. You must be hiding something from me, right?"

Yuri Nakamura was surprised by Sakuya Izayoi's sensitivity. She scratched her cheek and said, "It's nothing really, it's just..."

At this moment, Yuri Nakamura was in a dilemma. How should she tell Sakuya Izayoi that she had joined Momo and even used a little bit of a girl's special tricks to seduce Momo and bring the two of them closer?

Especially when Izayoi Sakuya had just risked her life to assassinate Mo Mo, and the reason for assassinating Mo Mo was because of Nakamura Yuri.

Imagine Jing Ke's assassination attempt on the King of Qin. When Jing Ke arrived before the King of Qin and found Prince Dan of Yan drinking and laughing with him, what expression would he have?

I reckon Jing Ke would be furious and would first draw his dagger and stab Nakamura Yuri, the Crown Prince of Yan, before he could do anything else.

However, Yuri Nakamura's embarrassment and hesitation led Sakuya Izayoi to misunderstand. Her face turned deathly pale instantly as she began to scrutinize Yuri's body, searching for any non-existent traces, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Miss, could it be... that he has already done something to you?"

"No, I didn't!"

Yuri Nakamura bristled instantly, her face turning bright red. She said, "What kind of thinking is that! I didn't do anything with him. Besides, things aren't what you think at all. Afterwards... ah, anyway, you'll understand later. Don't ask anymore, okay?"

Sakuya Izayoi nodded bitterly, clearly not accepting Yuri Nakamura's dubious reason.

Why make it so complicated?

Konno Yuuki, who was standing to the side, seemed to have had enough and said, "Yuri, just tell her that you have joined us and become one of us, isn't that enough? Your stammering will only make her resent your older brother more."

Konno Yuuki's words made Nakamura Yuri's face flush even more, but they also relieved her. What she couldn't say, Izayoi Sakuya finally understood.

Sakuya Izayoi's eyes widened; this was something she found completely unacceptable.

"Um, Sakuya, don't worry about it too much. Anyway, I've wanted to join Momo's side for a long time, and you'll understand later."

Yuri Nakamura really didn't know how to explain it to Sakuya Izayoi. Unless she could get Sakuya Izayoi to join the Hall of Heroes, how could Yuri Nakamura tell Sakuya Izayoi the truth?

As for making up a reason, Yuri Nakamura didn't want to do that. Although Sakuya Izayoi called her "Miss," Yuri Nakamura already considered Sakuya Izayoi one of her closest confidantes.

Is there no way to salvage the situation?

Sakuya Izayoi was still gritting her teeth, clearly her thoughts were still not on the same wavelength as Yuri Nakamura's. Yuri Nakamura was also helpless, nodded and said, "As for me, I am doing this willingly. I have no reason to back out. I'm sorry, Sakuya."

"I understand."

Sakuya Izayoi nodded with difficulty, seemingly forced to accept her own failure, which had resulted in both her own loss and the loss of her mistress. However, her pale face quickly transformed into a resolute expression.

“Miss Konno Yuuki, right?” Izayoi Sakuya bypassed Nakamura Yuri and said, “I want to join you too.”

"Sakuya!"

Yuri Nakamura was taken aback and quickly tried to stop her, but Sakuya Izayoi stubbornly pushed her away, saying, "No matter what your reasons are, what your conditions are, what kind of organization you are, or what your demands are on me. Even... even if you can take everything I have, I will join you."

“Sakuya, you…”

"I want to be with Ms. Nakamura Yuri. Wherever she goes, I will go. Whatever she does, I will do too. Whatever she faces, I will face too!"

Izayoi Sakuya's resounding words left Nakamura Yuri with no way to stop her. She looked at Izayoi Sakuya with emotion, her lips pursed. The loyalty and bond between Izayoi Sakuya and her truly moved Nakamura Yuri.

Although Yuri Nakamura vaguely knew that this feeling still contained a projection of Sakuya Izayoi's original loyalty to the two young ladies.

"Oh, I want to join too!"

Seeing this, Marisa Kirisame immediately raised her arm to sign up, saying, "If I join, I can pilot this giant robot, right? Ahhh, I'm so excited and envious! I can fire the cannons on that robot whenever I want, right?"

"I want a cannon! I want a shot! I can't hold back any longer!"

Marisa Kirisame's words left the group speechless, but everyone, including Fujiwara no Mokou, looked towards Konno Yuuki. At this moment, joining Momo's side seemed incredibly tempting.

However, facing everyone's expectant gazes, Konno Yuuki tilted her head somewhat awkwardly and said, "This matter is very troublesome. Why don't you ask your older brother about something so troublesome?"

080 An Unsolvable Problem

They had expected harsh conditions or even a cold rejection. But to their surprise, Konno Yuuki looked very troubled and troubled.

That expression made everyone feel the presence of some kind of opportunity.

Konno Yuuki neither refused nor showed any indication that it was absolutely impossible. This meant that Momo's side allowed everyone to join, and might even have welcomed them.

The only thing that puzzled everyone was why Konno Yuuki looked so troubled. Did joining Momo's side require a very complicated process, demanding some effort and resources from Konno Yuuki?

"No matter the cost, I will join."

Sakuya Izayoi gritted her teeth, especially when she saw the troubled look in Yuri Nakamura's eyes, which strengthened her resolve. In her mind, something must have happened to Yuri Nakamura, something that Yuri Nakamura found difficult to talk about, something she couldn't tell Sakuya Izayoi or any of her companions.

And such things... are often not good things.

As Yuri Nakamura's loyal servant, Sakuya Izayoi, just as she said, must personally join Momo's camp and return to Yuri Nakamura's side for the sake of her beloved mistress.

"So you can make any conditions you want. No matter how harsh the conditions are, I'm fine with them, as long as I can continue to serve Ms. Nakamura Yuri, then I can accept them completely."

"Sakuya..."

Sakuya Izayoi's resolute words drew everyone's attention, even the helplessness in Konno Yuuki's eyes turned into surprise and agreement. Because, in terms of loyalty and dedication to one's master, Konno Yuuki seemed to see his own reflection in Sakuya Izayoi's eyes.

"Well..."

Konno Yuuki nodded, tilted her head, and thought for a few seconds before saying, "Alright then, I'll be the bad guy this time. Hmph, even though I'm the older brother's sword, sometimes I want to experience being a supportive wife, after all..."

Konno Matsuki muttered a few words under her breath, her face flushed as if she had thought of something. This made Izayoi Sakuya suspicious, and her strange feelings became even more difficult to suppress.

"I agree to your joining in principle."

Konno Yuuki composed herself and said something that delighted Izayoi Sakuya. However, her next words plunged Izayoi Sakuya into deep thought.

"But before that, we need to clarify a few issues and establish a few basic principles. And I will clearly tell you the parts that my older brother and I find troublesome."

Konno Yuuki looked around at everyone, then pointed to each person and called out their names one by one amidst the anxious gazes of all.

"Sakuya Izayoi, Marisa Kirisame, Mokou Fujiwara, Kaguya Houraisan, oh right, and Sanae Kochiya. Sanae Kochiya, don't stand so far away, come a little closer!"

Konno Yuuki waved to Kochiya Sanae, who remained at the very edge of the Knightmare siege circle, seemingly intentionally distancing herself from the others.

However, after being waved to by Konno Yuuki, she hesitated for a moment before nodding and walking over to Izayoi Sakuya and Nakamura Yuri.

"Sanae, you've seemed a bit off since the beginning. Is something wrong?"

Marisa Kirisame took Sanae Kochiya's hand and asked curiously, but Sanae Kochiya quickly shook her head and glanced at Yuuki Konno, seemingly giving off a feeling of fear.

"She was probably scared, Sanae. It's okay, this is my business, you don't have to get involved."

Sakuya Izayoi also offered a word of comfort to Sanae Kochiya, who nodded but remained silent. As for Yuri Nakamura, she looked at Sanae Kochiya thoughtfully, as if she had thought of something.

"Perfect timing, now that everyone's here, I have a question for you all, and I don't know if you're all aware of it."

Konno Yuuki held up one finger and said, "Have you noticed that you have one thing in common?"

"I know!"

As soon as Konno Yuuki finished speaking, Kirisame Marisa raised her hand high and answered the question first.

"Alright, Marisa Kirisame, please answer!"

"We are all girls!"

"Stop it! Mingming and Sister Hong are my big brother's good brothers!"

Fujiwara no Mokou looked at Konno no Yabuki with a blank expression, then said angrily, "Don't drag me into this! And yes, I am Momo's brother, but I am also a girl. If anyone jokes about this with me again, I'll never forgive them!"

As she spoke, Fujiwara no Mokou seemed to casually toss her hair, but this unintentional movement revealed her wedding ring on her left ring finger, which sparkled and attracted everyone's attention.

"Hmm... Good morning, Mom."
