Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

“Since I’ve decided to believe you, I’ll believe everything you say. You said you sealed Alaya’s true form, so she can no longer have such great power.”

“You said that you and Alaya are not gods of the two-dimensional world, but can only influence the two-dimensional world because of dimensional suppression. So no matter what Alaya’s power has done in the two-dimensional world, she is at most an existence on the same level as me. She may be stronger than me, but she cannot crush me.”

"I'm a man whose influence extends to over a hundred worlds, so it's not too much for me to call myself a minor god, is it?"

Gaia listened to Momo's boasting with a smile, making no attempt to interrupt him. Her azure eyes held only Momo's image; her heart now held no room for anything else.

"Moreover, this time, there was a particularly special discovery."

"What discovery?"

"Just like I wondered before, since it's true that you sealed her power, why are my trading powers, the SOS Brigade, the Crimson World, and Gilgamesh's powers still functioning? The fact that she was able to influence me just now clearly shows that she is connected to these powers, but none of this is her power."

"What...does all of this mean?"

"The answer is already waiting for you... no, it's already waiting for us."

"yes……"

Mo Mo nodded slightly and said, "The answer is already waiting for us. Perhaps she is just too lazy to waste her energy on a role like mine right now."

"A god from the world of anime..."

……

"It seems the matter has been resolved?"

Alastor's voice rang out the moment Momo appeared. Momo nodded easily and said, "Yes. We broke through the hundredth floor of Aincrad, but encountered a small problem when facing the gatekeeper boss. However, it has been resolved now, and from today onwards, the entire Aincrad belongs to Momo."

"Congratulations! Can I come and eat... or visit later?"

"Shana!"

"Alright, Alastor, you tell me, I'll shut up."

Shana shut her mouth in exasperation. She was just enjoying the food; what did it matter? They were cooperating anyway. However, Shana also knew that on such important matters between factions, Alastor clearly had more authority.

"Well then, it seems we can discuss our proposal now. How does the Crimson World view Gilgamesh?"

"Gilgamesh... the mad king, only one step away from incomprehensible madness."

"So, does the Crimson World acknowledge Gilgamesh's guilt?"

Alastor was silent for a moment, then said, "Although our Crimson World is very different from those other worlds, I believe that destroying civilizations and causing all living beings to disappear is an unforgivable sin. Conflict and chaos in the world are inevitable, and rules and balance are the most basic laws that allow everything to survive."

"So it seems we've reached an agreement."

Momo clapped his hands and looked at Nagato Yuki on the other side. Nagato Yuki nodded and said, "I fully represent the opinion of SOS Brigade Leader Suzumiya Haruhi. We believe that Gilgamesh is guilty of heinous crimes and must apologize to the countless dead with his death."

"Very well, the next topic of discussion is how to punish Gilgamesh, shall we?"

Second update... Tomorrow... Anonymous... Please don't hit me...

I'm stuck on writing, I'm stuck on writing on both sides.

Ugh, headache. There was a small argument at home tonight, so I wasn't really in the mood. I'll try to make up for it tomorrow.

112 This is the time when the gods awaken.

"Jill, what are you thinking about?"

The endless black mud coalesced into a sinister and terrifying palace, upon which Gilgamesh sat enthroned. In contrast, Enkidu appeared much more relaxed, sitting on the ground, nestled on Gilgamesh's lap, gazing up at him.

"I'm thinking about all of this, everything that started when our world collapsed."

"Originally, after I became a Heroic Spirit and stayed in the Hall of Heroes, I thought I would stay in this state forever. But I never expected that I would be pulled into reality by a guy called the Administrator."

"It would have been fine if he had just been brought into the real world, but he ended up dying at my hands. By sheer coincidence, I gained this limitless power, surpassing the will of the world, and the entire world was now under my feet."

Enkidu nodded and said, "I know all this. Isn't that good? You were once the king of mortals, and now you have become the king of the world. There is no limit to the way of the king. You are the true king."

"Yes, I am the king, the true king."

Gilgamesh looked at his hands and said, "After discovering that you were the only one missing, I thought it was the Supreme God mocking me. I was furious. The King's wrath destroyed the world and destroyed too many things. Perhaps it is time for me to stop."

"Because a king also needs the admiration of his subjects. A king without subjects is nothing more than a lonely figure sitting alone on his throne."

"Jill, are you hesitating? Are you angry because I'm leaving?"

Gilgamesh shook his head and said, "Your departure was so that I could become king again, break away from the original world and become a stronger king, giving us a chance to reunite. For that alone, I will not blame you."

"As for those who are already dead, before you came, they were all my enemies, not my people. The death of enemies is a matter of course."

Enkidu laughed and said, "As expected, even if you wield this maddening power, Gil doesn't change at all."

"Those who allow power to consume them are nothing but fools."

"You're right, perhaps it's time to think about the future."

Enkidu stood up, looked into the distance, and said, "We have gained a higher platform and a wider world. Once we awaken the gods, we can conquer more lands and people, and build a more expansive and prosperous Uruk."

“At that time, Gil, you were still your king.”

Gilgamesh smiled faintly, somewhat moved by Enkidu's admiration. However, he wasn't so optimistic, saying, "But there will still be a god above us."

God, and what that word represents, is what Gilgamesh hates most.

“Jill, after all, this god is different from the gods we remember. And... even if the god we are about to awaken is the same as the gods of the past, we will still have a chance. As long as we have time and patience, we will have more opportunities, just like we do now.”

Gilgamesh slowly closed his eyes, acknowledging Enkidu's words. If he could, Gilgamesh wouldn't want to hear or see any word related to gods. Unfortunately, to contend with the supreme god of the three-dimensional world, he needed power of equal caliber.

Gilgamesh does not yet possess this power.

"You're right, let's see... what exactly our so-called god is!"

……

"Tsk, you piece of trash, what are you doing here?"

Gilgamesh held his head high and bluntly called Momo trash. Momo, in turn, nodded gracefully to Gilgamesh and said, "It's nice to see you again, King of Heroes."

The place where the group of people were located was the world where Gensokyo originally existed. However, after Gilgamesh's destruction and Mömer's reconstruction, this world has become a primitive, nascent world.

This place contains only the most primordial forms of life. Perhaps, after countless ages, a race will rise here, and a new civilization will be born. But this world could also be destroyed once again by a sudden catastrophe.

“It was my idea to invite him, Gilgamesh.”

Alastair responded to Gilgamesh, saying, "Although he is the administrator, if we really want to evaluate your actions, we think he is more trustworthy and safer than you."

"How dare you compare me to scum? Looks like you're ready to wage war against me? Fine, what gods or not, let me destroy the entire world and gather countless powers. I refuse to believe I still can't defeat this so-called supreme god!"

“吉尔，别冲动！”

Enkidu put his arm around Gilgamesh's shoulder, preventing Gilgamesh from storming off. At that moment, the giant black serpent coiled in the distance—the Serpent of Ritual—spoke, saying, "His arrival here was a necessary condition, and I can explain that to you."

"Then you'd better come up with a reason that I can believe!"

"To put it simply, to awaken our God, all past and present leaders need to gather together. As for why... it's the last words left by our leaders. Our wishes and our power have also yielded this message."

Gilgamesh quieted down. He already knew a great deal about the Crimson World and the Administrators. Although he disliked this relationship, he was still very interested in the Crimson World's power, which was like a wish-granting machine.

"In my treasure trove, there is a wish-granting machine called the Greater Grail, which functions similarly to the power you possess. However, this so-called wish-granting machine is merely bait to lure Servants into killing each other; from the very beginning, there was no possibility of wishes coming true."

Gilgamesh's lips curled into a sneer as he said, "Let me see if the conclusions you've reached with this power can actually achieve your wishes. If you can't... then I'll have to rely on my own methods."

"As you wish, Gilgamesh."

The Serpent of Ritual soothed Gilgamesh, then roared to the sky once more, saying, "Shahar, the Howl of Awakening, it is time for you to display your power."

As the Serpent of Ritual finished speaking, a dazzling light shot into the sky from afar. A gentle yet majestic female voice also entered everyone's ears, and no amount of means could block it out.

This voice transcended time and space, and with the support of the accumulated power of the entire Crimson World, it spread throughout the entire two-dimensional world and resounded in the ears of all living beings.

"The sound of whistling and singing."

"This is the time for the gods to awaken!"

113 The Awakening of God

"Howling Chant" is a skill of Shahar, one of the three Crimson World Primes, known as the Guide God of Awakening. As the most mysterious of the three Crimson World Primes, Shahar's power lies in invoking and communicating.

In other words, its ability is like a GM announcement in a game, conveying its judgment and will to all beings in the Crimson World. Although this ability has no direct combat power, it is equivalent to controlling public opinion and can easily reverse the course of a matter through public opinion.

Therefore, although it never fights directly, both the God of Punishment, Alastor, and the Serpent of the Creator God, are very wary of it.

However, what surprised Momo now was why this guiding god could unleash such immense power.

“To guide the gods to exert their power, sacrifices are also needed.”

Seemingly noticing Momo's confusion, Alastor softly answered it. Its tone was somewhat melancholic; although its relationship with the guiding god wasn't particularly good, they were still beings of equal rank.

"Could it be that, in order to convey this will to awaken God to the entire world of anime and manga, what must be sacrificed now is..."

“That’s right, it is the guiding God himself.”

Mo Mo immediately felt a deep respect for Hong Shi and asked, "Is this the conclusion you reached through discussion? Is it something you did willingly?"

"There will always be someone who needs to do this kind of thing, just like what that person did for our Red World. Don't worry, whether it is the guiding god or the creating god, their disappearance is temporary. As long as the concepts of creation and guidance do not disappear, they will be reborn in the Red World."

"And... the sacrificial serpent?"

Mo Xiaobai looked at the dark serpent in the distance. As a creator god, the sacrificial serpent naturally had the ability to create things.

"Yes, Administrator. What we do is simply to carry on the legacy of your ancestors. The world needs a god, and we are willing to fire a salute for the birth of a god."

After speaking, the sacrificial serpent flew high into the air, reaching a distance far from the crowd, and gradually took on a shape where its head and tail were joined together. Then, it bit its own tail, forming a closed loop.

Countless intricate silver streaks flew out from his body, gradually surrounding it, forming a ring that eventually coalesced into a large, silvery-white sphere. It looked just like a giant egg.

"To sacrifice yourselves to form an egg that can contain new things... I must say, I admire your magnanimity. Crimson World demons, you have earned my respect, you are worthy kings."

Gilgamesh, too, seemed shaken by this scene. Unlike the destruction he brought, the Crimson World symbolized creation and rebirth. Faced with this awe-inspiring spectacle, he chose to remain silent.

I wonder if this was just out of curiosity, respect, or perhaps a slight regret for what he had done?

On the SOS Brigade's side, only Nagato Yuki appeared, but she faithfully transmitted everything that happened to Haruhi Suzumiya and Mikuru, who were left in Valhalla.

Having reconciled with Momo, Haruhi Suzumiya's maternal instincts gradually rekindled over time. She gazed at the egg formed from the self-sacrifice of the sacrificial serpent in the void, and reached out to stroke the fetus within her womb.
