Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

If, in the past, or even just a few days ago, Tilberu had underestimated Asuna, now he undoubtedly regarded Asuna as someone on the same level as himself, or even a level higher.

Asuna is definitely not just a pretty face; she is actually a ruthless and powerful character. Yet, this character has devoted her whole heart to Momo and unconditionally trusts him.

Tilberu had witnessed what happened a few days ago, and he understood that Asuna's actions were not merely a display of heartlessness, but also a sign of ruthlessness.

Ruthless towards oneself.

Tilberu believed that someone as ruthless as himself would never show mercy to others.

Asuna stared at Tilber, who nodded slightly, making it impossible for Asuna to see his true expression, which made Asuna hesitate.

How should we deal with Tilberu?

Although according to Momo, Tilber could be ignored and treated as a neutral NPC, now that Tilber has discovered something, Asuna can no longer treat him as nothing.

"It seems you enjoy researching interesting things."

Asuna didn't give a direct answer. She tried her best to think about what Momo would do if he were facing Tilber.

First of all, it will definitely be rambling and idle talk; it will absolutely not get to the point.

"Yes, you're right. I know I'm not good enough personally, but I want to achieve in the game what I can't achieve in real life. I want to be a success in the game, a person in power, but I have neither funds nor strength, and I have no connections."

"All I can rely on is a righteous heart and this mouth that I use to proclaim justice."

Although Tilber didn't say anything explicitly, his words were tantamount to revealing his true nature to Asuna.

So, what exactly is Tilberu trying to achieve by doing this?

Asuna wasn't sure.

They didn't even know what to do next.

If it's Momo... if it's Momo...

correct!

Asuna's eyes lit up, and she said, "I'm asking you, Tilberu, what does Momo mean to you?"

"It's the president."

"That was before?"

"Yes."

"now what?"

Tilberu raised his head slightly and said, "Right now, I would like to become one of Mr. Momo's subordinates and work for him. I wonder if there is such an opportunity?"

Become!

Asuna was overjoyed. As expected, Tilber was after Momo. He didn't want anything from her, but rather wanted to confirm the truth of this series of events through her.

Can we really trust Tilberu's loyalty?

Asuna was naturally unaware of the agreement between Tilber and Momo. Although Momo did not intend to use this matter to threaten Tilber, Tilber always remembered that he owed Momo a life.

With his life in someone else's hands, Tilberu was naturally restless and unable to eat or sleep. Now, he had figured everything out and wanted an answer from Asuna before making his final decision.

The reason he was so restless was that his life was in someone else's hands, and he was constantly thinking about overthrowing that person and taking his life back.

Although this is the most fundamental way to solve the problem, it also means that he has to walk a tightrope between life and death.

However, if we look at it from another angle, what if he switched to serving that person?

Since her life was in his hands, she wouldn't betray him, and he wouldn't think she would betray him either. This was actually a very solid relationship of trust.

So, is it worth serving Momo?

That day, Momo said a lot of things, which many of Tilberu didn't believe. He had his own observations about the game and thought it was much simpler than Momo described.

Perhaps, it is precisely for the simplest and most unbelievable reason that this game became a game of death, simply because Kayaba Akihiko had a brain fart.

After all, there is only a fine line between genius and madness. A genius who ignores universal laws and moral rules will inevitably walk on the edge of crime.

So, which of Momo's statements are true?

Tilberu had his own thoughts, and especially after realizing the possible truth behind the matter, he finally made up his mind.

So, he's standing here now.

Asuna pondered for a long time but still couldn't make up her mind. Instead, she took out a blank notebook and started writing and drawing on it. It's unclear what she wrote, but she put it in her inventory afterward.

Tilber stood quietly, having already stated his purpose, and now it was up to Asuna to make a decision.

A few dozen seconds later, Asuna seemed to remember something, took out her notebook and searched through it. Finally, she seemed to have found something and a hint of joy appeared on her face.

"Tilberu".

"I'm here."

"As far as I know, Momo seems to trust you?"

Tilberu smiled wryly and said, "It is indeed trust, but the trust between us is not a compliment. However, I will follow the orders of Lady Yagyu and Mr. Yagyu Momo."

Asuna Wan'er said, "The premise is that I am Lady Yagyu? Tilbell, are you stupid? I have already broken off all contact with Momo. Now, I am just Asuna. Even if Momo and I really get married, it's only in the game. There might be changes in reality."

As she spoke, Asuna crossed her arms and stood up straight with pride, her beautiful figure tall and captivating.

"However, I can tell you that I believe in Momo. What about you?"

Tilber lowered his head even further, only daring to look at Asuna's hand. A glint flashed in his eyes as he stared at Asuna's hand.

Tilberu smiled.

“You believe in Momo, so naturally I believe in Momo as well. Or to be more precise, I no longer dare not believe in Momo. I believe that right now, in the entire Aincrad, no one can rival Momo.”

Asuna nodded, naturally uncrossing her hands, and said, "By the way, speaking of which, did you inform him about Heathcliff's aggressive attitude today?"

Tilberu shook his head and said, "No, he doesn't trust me and treats me as an outsider. From what I've observed, he hasn't even consulted with the King of Fangs. He simply wants to integrate all our guilds on his own."

Asuna frowned and said, "Does he have that ability? What makes him so greedy? A second-rate guild like him wants to swallow all of our big guilds whole?"

"Yes, it was originally impossible."

Tilberu's words grew increasingly confident as he said, "Unless he can prove that he is the best and last leader in this situation, and convince everyone that only he can save everyone."

"There is only this one option; otherwise, there is no other way."

Asuna asked doubtfully, "Perhaps he could try to persuade the other players to disbelieve Momo's words?"

"It's impossible."

Tilberu shook his head, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said, "Humans are just like that; they always believe what they want to believe, and the vast majority of humans are also easily swayed by others."

"Heathcliff colluded with the King of Teeth, and five days ago, he used your and Momo's wedding to set up such a big stage. Wasn't it just to use all sorts of advantages and means to make everyone believe their lies?"

"It's a pity. They never expected that the main characters of that ball would still be you and Mo Mojun. Those two were just greedy clowns."

"Now, they want to make amends for all these mistakes, and only by using a large-scale event, or a sufficiently tragic one, can they turn the scales that have tipped to one side back to their side."

Tilberu's expression flickered as he said, "I just don't know if this opportunity even exists, or if such an event will actually occur."

Asuna smiled slightly and said, "Tilbell, what do you think of the proposal to merge the Heathcliff Guild?"

What do you think?

"Actually, I don't think it's impossible. The key is how to prove that it's feasible. Our Rose Garden only has one combat team. How can we prove that the various combat teams can cooperate with each other and have enough combat capability? Once these issues are resolved, perhaps I will agree."

Tilberu was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting this outcome, and asked, "Then, what should we use to prove all of this?"

At this moment, a female knight, pale-faced, trotted over to Yuriel and whispered something. Yuriel was initially surprised, but then her face grew paler and paler, just like the female knight.

"What happened, Yuriel!"

Upon hearing Asuna's words, Yuriel rushed over and exclaimed, "Guild Master, something terrible has happened! Those red-named players who call themselves Executors have finally made their move! Many players witnessed a 10-person combat team being surrounded by them during a routine patrol, and then... and then... they were all... killed!"

Yuriel's words caused Asuna and Tilber to change their expressions. Tilber looked at Asuna, then at Yuriel, and breathed a sigh of relief.

He sighed inwardly, saying, "Luckily I made the decision, otherwise it would be too late now."

However, he was still very curious about what force supported Asuna and made her still believe in Momo.

After all, Mo Mo has already started killing people!

"Miss Asuna, even now, do you still believe?"

"I have no reason not to believe you, what about you?"

Tilberu gave a wry smile and said, "I can't help but believe it!"

106 I will be back

Tilberu really has to believe, and must believe.

He had a contract with Momo, who saved his life, and in return, he was obligated to obey Momo. Momo had previously ordered him to handle some matters within the guild, and although these were all quite ordinary orders, Tilberu still couldn't disobey them.

Tilberu also attempted to disobey orders, such as by deliberately delaying, implying to his subordinates to handle things in other ways, and trying various means to defy orders.

However, the outcome would not change; all his attempts to disobey Momer's orders failed.

The most serious incident occurred when Momo ordered him to expel a notorious but very powerful player from the guild. Due to personal relationships and selfish motives, Tilberu kept delaying the order, and in the end, he was shocked to find that he had already expelled the player from the guild without even realizing it.

He later asked others and learned that he had given the orders, and that his expression was strange and stiff when he gave the orders. Everyone thought that this was a sign that he was unwilling and had a conflict with the president, Mo Mo.

Tilberu then realized that even if he was determined not to carry out Momo's orders, in the end, Momo's abilities could still control him to do so.

It could even temporarily take over his mind!

At this point, Tilberu finally realized that Momo's ability was something that could not be resisted, at least not by a mere mortal like himself.

Therefore, just as Momo said, the only thing Tilberu could do in the face of Momo was to do nothing, not even dare to disobey Momo's orders, and could only respond passively at most.

This is why Momo believes that Tilberu wouldn't act recklessly, because Tilberu is a smart person, the smartest person in the broadest sense in reality, opportunistic, scheming and profit-seeking.

Therefore, he won't be foolish enough to be tricked into going down the path of idiocy like Ya-o, nor will he be like Kayaba Akihiko who drags ten thousand people into hell and goes crazy because of his obsession.

Tilberu would absolutely obey Momo to save his own life, even though Momo had no interest in his life.

If there was anything Momo hadn't expected, it was that Tilberu was even smarter than Momo had imagined. Perhaps the long period of silence, more than four months, had allowed him to come to a realization about the joys of life.

Even if you're taking the blame, you should still put on a happy smile!

The two of them didn't go anywhere else; they just stood there and waited.

The two people who had already communicated with each other naturally understood that something was about to happen, or rather, that these things had been arranged by someone long ago and were bound to happen; everything was a natural arrangement within the cause and effect.
