Crossover anime, starting with Hachiman Hikigaya replacing Subaru Natsuki!

In the very end, her words "mother fox" reignited the nearly subsided conflict. Ultimately, she was slightly outmaneuvered by Hachiman Hikigaya. The scene changed too much and too quickly, leaving the audience bewildered and disoriented.

"The Sword Saint's family has such scum? Tsk."

Ram snorted disdainfully. She loved her younger sister the most and despised Heinger, a bastard who brought shame to his family. "Living is a waste of food and air. It would be better if he died sooner, preferably devoured by the rabbits!"

At Tamako's house, Oji Mochizou gave Tamako a high five. "Luckily, Hachiman was there, otherwise Heinz would probably be even more arrogant. After all, everyone else is restrained by Heinz's status and doesn't have that kind of quick thinking."

The members of the Wise Men's Council couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Heinger when they saw him being dragged along the ground by Al, as Priscilla commanded him like a dog. Heinger's stance on social death in front of the whole world was the same as theirs.

The Sages, however, are now somewhat uncontrollably feeling a sense of relief, at least their fate is better than Heinger's.

"Brother, look, look, look! I told you Anna and Hachiman were the perfect match!"

At the Kousaka residence, Kirino Kousaka was so happy she almost jumped for joy. Tears welled in her eyes as she kept promoting the Anna Party to her brother, saying, "Anna took the initiative to shield Hachiman-senpai from conflict with Priscilla, because Hachiman-senpai couldn't stand Priscilla insulting Anna."

She put her hands on her hips and said, "Isn't this the ideal love? Don't you think it's good?"

"..."

Kyosuke Kousaka gritted his teeth. He was indeed wavering, but he could still hold on and retort: ​​"Didn't Emilia immediately get up to protect Hachiman? She's an absolute husband-protecting fanatic, no less than Anastasia."

"Humph!"

Kirino Kousaka pouted, but didn't turn against her brother. After all, she liked Emilia very much, and she believed that her brother would eventually realize how wonderful Anna was.

In the Sanctuary, Garfield clenched his fist, his aura rising. "Hey, where's I? If I were here, I'd easily beat up Heinz and Priscilla!"

At this point in the future, he was dragged out for a stroll early in the morning by the overjoyed Mimi, enjoying some alone time together.

"It's all that brat's fault, Mimi and all that stuff just don't work—Ouch, that hurts!"

Muttering to himself, Jiafeier was once again beaten by Grandma Shima's cane.

"Hmm, while the appearances of Heinrich and Miss Priscilla were unexpected, it was entirely predictable that the Prime Minister would argue with that big-breasted jerk. But..."

Inside the Hexin Chamber of Commerce, Anastasia's left hand, which had been resting on her chin, quietly moved down to her chest, where her pounding heart proclaimed an unusual emotion that gradually spread and permeated her entire body.

She pursed her lips and looked up at the prime minister who was protecting her.

"I don't really care what Priscilla says... The Prime Minister always likes to give me headaches, doesn't that make me more and more dependent on you?"

Her pale blue eyes blinked adorably. "So, could it be that this was actually something our Prime Minister did on purpose?"

The Prime Minister did not answer.

So that's the default?

"Then I'll obediently take the bait~"

With a sly smile, Anastasia knew that this cunning she-fox would never let go of her prime minister.

At the same time, at the Nakano residence, Nakano Satsuki nodded proudly, "As expected, I knew it. Hachiman-kun is bound to fight Priscilla whenever he encounters her."

"However, Priscilla's only nemesis is him. This arrogant guy can't beat Hachiman-kun... Uh, are you guys even listening?"

She analyzed the situation, trying to show off her intelligence, but when she turned around, she found her sisters folded up, their arms and legs crossed, like twisted dough sticks, and their expressions were all strange. In short, none of them were listening to her.

May had no choice but to reach out and push Uesugi Futaro, seeking satisfaction from him.

But the next second, she was brutally crushed by Nino and pinned to the floor. She didn't even get to eat her meat bun, and she felt terrible.

There are two people worse than her: Yukino Yukinoshita and Crusch.

Yukino could have tolerated her Hikigaya-kun's flirtatious behavior if she hadn't seen the single, unloved Hikigaya-kun in the Felt route.

Crusch knew that the amnesiac version of herself at the gathering wasn't because she didn't have enough feelings for Hachiman-sama, but simply because she was too weak and slow to react, which is why she only stood up to help Hachiman-sama when the battle was over.

But it's all over now!

"It seems I'll have to do it. I'm so weak after losing my memory, even if I have enough feelings, I still can't protect Lord Hachiman!"

With unwavering resolve, Crusch's confidence ignited amidst her disappointment.

"After Priscilla left, the once-enthusiastic banquet could not continue."

"Although Heinrich was dealt with, the shadow he cast will not completely dissipate. After thanking Hachiman Hikigaya, Wilhelm and Reinhard both left the scene one after the other."

"Phyllis asked Crusch for leave and went to stay with Wilhelm and comfort him. Julius also asked Anastasia for leave to comfort Reinhard."

After the meeting, Beatrice glared at Hachiman Hikigaya, hands on her hips, and scolded him, "Hmm, honestly, all you do is show off! Do you know how dangerous it is to be with that crazy woman?!"

Emilia took his hand and gently reminded him, "Yes, yes, don't do it again next time, Hachiman. It's best not to argue with Miss Priscilla."

"Well..." Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't guarantee it, because he always had a strange chemistry with Priscilla, so he could only change the subject, "It's about time we went to the concert Liliana invited us to, right? It's been a year since we last saw each other, and I could tell from the radio this morning that she sings even better."

"About that, I'm also a little interested, aren't I?"

"Excuse me, if Lord Hachiman and Miss Emilia don't mind, I'd also like to... um... is that alright?"

"Anastasia, with her sly smile, suddenly intervened, and Crusch, her face slightly flushed and uneasy."

"However, the naive Emilia didn't see anything."

304. Prime Minister

Whoosh!

The light of the Yang Sword flashed, leaving another destructive mark in the ravaged mansion. Priscilla's eyes were terrifying, as if she wanted to glare Anastasia to death.

"Shameless vixen!"

Her tone lowered, her murderous intent rising, "Lewd, ignorant, relying on selling your filthy body—which can't even be called vulgar—to bewitch the foolish and ignorant against me, you stupid vixen! I'm ready to grant your last wish of offering your neck to my blade!"

Al, standing beside her, had no doubt about her determination to kill Anastasia immediately.

If she didn't despise and loathe Echidna even more than Anastasia, her incredible luck would probably have made things very difficult for that vixen Anastasia.

The day Echidna dies will be the day Anastasia chokes to death while drinking water.

But—Al and Schulte exchanged a glance, surprised.

They all noticed that Priscilla's tolerance level had indeed changed. This time, her dissatisfaction was only because of Anastasia, and she did not get angry because of Hachiman Hikigaya's sharp sarcasm towards her.

That makes sense, though. Compared to the timeline where Hachiman Hikigaya beat her black and blue, this little teasing is nothing.

"Hachiman Hikigaya, Emilia, Beatrice, Anastasia, and Crusch, after getting ready, set off for their appointment, ready to listen to Minato's flawless singing face to face."

"Midway through, Crusch asked a question out of curiosity... Based on her understanding of Hachiman Hikigaya over the past year, she knew he was a very composed person, so why was he arguing so fiercely with Priscilla this time? Could it be that he and Priscilla have some kind of grudge in private?"

"Hachiman Hikigaya subconsciously glanced at Anastasia beside him. Coincidentally, Anastasia was also smiling at him at that moment. Her fox-like, sharp light blue eyes contained a cunning that saw through him but didn't say anything."

"...Hachiman Hikigaya never intended to reveal that he was doing this for Anastasia, otherwise, while the kind-hearted Emilia might tolerate it, Beatrice would definitely be jealous."

He shook his head and said, "No, there's no personal grudge. I'm just naturally at odds with Priscilla."

"How strange, so there are people that Lord Hachiman can't get along with."

"Crusch said softly, "Miss Emilia, Miss Anastasia, Miss Felt, and I all have a good relationship with Lord Hachiman, as do Phyllis and the others... It's impossible for them not to get along with someone like Lord Hachiman. Although we rarely interact, I can roughly understand what Phyllis meant when she told me that Miss Priscilla had a terrible personality."

"And I also felt it very clearly this morning."

"There is no book in the world that everyone loves to read, and no one can be friends with just anyone."

"Accepting the fact that he's not perfect with composure," Hachiman Hikigaya paused, recalling glimpses of Priscilla in his mind. "But actually... I don't really hate Priscilla. However, there's only Priscilla. I certainly don't want to, and will never, support her in becoming queen, get close to her, or help her govern the country."

"I don't hate him, but I still hate him. He doesn't owe Priscilla any favors this time, so it's best if we don't have any contact with him at all."

"That sounds... I'm sorry, I don't know if I'm overthinking it." Crusch looked cautiously at Hachiman Hikigaya. "So, does that mean that candidates other than Miss Emilia have a chance to get Lord Hachiman's help and support?"

"That will have to wait until the royal election is over. Whoever wins, as long as it's not Priscilla, I certainly won't object to them asking me for advice on building the Kingdom of Lugnica."

Hachiman Hikigaya answered frankly, "Provided you don't mind me, right?"

"It doesn't really matter to him which of the four candidates besides Priscilla he helps; it's as comfortable as coming home... He's already discussed the matter of buying and selling dragon blood with each of them individually; Anastasia is the last one."

"Therefore, Emilia no longer has any worries, and she has no reason not to win the royal election. Under these circumstances, Hachiman Hikigaya mentioned to her before that if someone else wins, he might serve in their court in the future."

"Amelia respected his will and did not refuse."

"But what Hachiman Hikigaya didn't know was that after that, Emilia's previous complacency, which she thought would be resolved by the dragon blood, vanished completely, and she reaffirmed her belief in winning the royal selection."

"Upon hearing Hachiman Hikigaya's words, Anastasia and Crusch's eyes lit up at that moment, especially Crusch. Her eyes were fixed intently on Lord Hachiman of Emilia, her breathing was slightly rapid, and her eyes were hazy. She couldn't hide what she was thinking at all."

Emilia puffed out her cheeks slightly, glared at Crusch with a pitiful look, like a protective eagle guarding its prey: "I will win—I absolutely will!"

"Miss Emilia is so adorable." Anastasia clasped her hands together and teased, "In that case, let's put the deal aside for now. After I become emperor, Hachiman, how about you come and be my prime minister for a bit?"

"She just mentioned it casually with a smile, but Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly wavered visibly. He seemed a little dazed as he stared at Anastasia."

"...What?!" Anastasia was dumbfounded. She hadn't expected Hachiman Hikigaya to react so strongly to those words. "...Prime Minister?"

Anastasia called out again tentatively, and the next second, Emilia clearly panicked. She grabbed her knight's hand and immediately added, "If Hachiman wants to be prime minister, I'd very much welcome him!"

"Um... I also..." Crusch offered generous terms in a weak voice.

"But their shouts of 'Prime Minister' didn't make Hachiman Hikigaya even more disoriented; instead, they pulled him out of that state."

Anastasia's eyes lit up; she realized she seemed to have found something very interesting.

"Anatasia!!"

Inside the convenience store, Yukinoshita fumed bitterly. She would rather have several people snatch Hachiman away from her than have him fall into Anastasia's hands.

Emilia and Crusch, at most, rely on Hikigaya's heart and love his soul; their physical contact is basically limited to the point of being superficial.

Only this shameless purple-haired swindler, Anastasia, is unreasonable; she wants it all!

Watching Anastasia gradually win over Hachiman was more painful for Yukino than seeing Rem confess her feelings to him!

305. The Wrathful Expedition - Part 1

Yukinoshita was filled with righteous indignation, but she soon ran out of energy and instead frowned, sitting up straight and becoming serious.

She saw a new scene in the video, a scene that could threaten her Hikigaya-kun. Faced with his life and safety, love could be put aside for the time being.

On their way to meet Liliana, the five of them passed a tall Time Tower, where a large crowd had gathered and were all looking up at the top of the tower.

"To all those who enjoyed our conversation, and to those in a hurry, I apologize for causing you any inconvenience. Could you please grant me a moment? Thank you for your kindness."

"A woman stood there, her entire body, including her head, wrapped in bandages, and wearing a black robe. Her hands were wrapped in intimidating golden chains, the ends of which were sharp claws."
