In a crossover anime, the only way to become stronger is by marrying a wife.

However, Ijichi Nijika was quite lucky.

[Venom Tarantula:]

【Level: 10】

Venom Tarantula (Elite)

【Level: 15】

These were a group of humanoid monsters, their bodies purplish-black, with spider-like limbs growing from their backs. They clung to the cave walls and ceiling, baring their teeth and claws, their compound eyes warily watching the intruders.

Chapter 167: You can start a band in the underworld.

"The venom tarantula's weakness lies in its protruding blood vessels. Once you rupture one of these vessels, you can render it immobile."

Tsukikawa Shuu was explaining the characteristics of the monster and how to deal with it to Ijichi Nijika.

"But...I don't have any weapons..."

Looking at these humanoid monsters, Ichiki Nijika instinctively felt a sense of fear.

"Just grab any stick; with your current level and the added attack power, it's more than enough."

Tsukikawa Shuu said, "These monsters have high attack but low defense. If you stab them once and break their blood vessels, they're basically dead."

"let me try."

Feeling guilty, Ichiki Natsumi picked up a stick that looked fairly straight from the side.

Then, they cautiously approached the monsters.

"No need to rush. Although the venom of these monsters is deadly, they are slow-moving and have virtually no defense. They are good monsters to practice on."

Tsukikawa Shuu explained.

"Just stand here, and they'll crawl out on their own. Then, be quick, get behind them, and launch a sneak attack!"

"Just tap them once. Their blood will seep out, and you don't need to do anything after that. They will bleed to death on their own."

Under the tutelage of Tsukikawa Shuu, Ijichi Nijika gradually gets closer to these monsters.

I stood some distance outside the cave, waiting for the monsters to come out.

Just as Tsukikawa Shuu had said, these things moved slowly. When they got close, Ijichi Nijika followed Tsukikawa Shuu's instructions and circled around behind these monsters, waiting for the right opportunity.

"what!"

He slammed the stick down hard, and instantly, green juice splattered everywhere.

Ichi Nijika quickly jumped away.

"Their blood isn't poisonous; the main toxin is in their claws. However, their claws are also slow-moving, so as long as you don't get scratched, you'll be fine," Tsukikawa Shuu said.

"Is that so..." Only then did Ichiji Nijika dare to continue.

Following Tsukikawa Shu's method, they struck the monsters several times with the sticks, eliminating them all.

You have obtained 6 Venom.

You have obtained the blueprint for the Staff (Beginner) design.

Your current dungeon level is: 15

"Is that all?" Ichiji Nijika was somewhat disappointed.

"They all seem quite difficult to deal with."

"You think you don't get enough experience from monsters like these?" Tsukikawa Shu laughed. "You have no idea how difficult it is to survive in the real underworld. Even in the early stages, if you can find a few monsters to level up once or twice, it's enough to survive. For them, even leveling up is a luxury."

“Is that so…” Ichiji Nijika blinked.

“If you want to level up quickly, there are ways,” Tsukikawa Shuu said. “For example, you can sign a contract with me right now.”

"Who wants it?!" Ichiji Nijika refused without even thinking.

"Just kidding. I'll keep giving you instructions, and as long as you follow my instructions, you can keep leveling up," Tsukikawa Shuu said.

"Also, take another look at what skills you have, and what you've awakened."

“Let me see…” Ichiji Nijika opened the system.

The item you can currently craft is: Poison Staff (Fine)

[Crafting Materials: 1 tree branch, 5 venomous tarantulas]

“It looks pretty good,” said Ichiji Nikka. “Look, it’s excellent!”

“Excellent quality… I use it to break down into refined ore,” Tsukikawa Shuu said. “It’s like garbage, I’ll give you as much as you want.”

"Of course, it's still very useful for you right now."

"So you're saying I'm treating trash like treasure?" Ichiji Nijika said, somewhat angrily.

She didn't have much of a concept of Tsukikawa Shu's status and strength, but she figured that since it was labeled "excellent," it was probably something of good quality.

“That should be enough for you right now,” Tsukikawa Shuu said. “Anyway, there’s a synthesis method in the system. Just put all the materials in and you’re done.”

“Okay.” Ichiji Nijika nodded.

All items were put into the synthesis system, and after a short while, the system completed the synthesis.

Ijichi Nijika now held a small wooden stick in her hand, like a magician's wand.

"It looks like the stick I use to play the drums." Ichiji Nijika shook the stick and actually thought it was pretty good. It was a handy weapon, and she couldn't put it down for a moment.

I waved it around in the air a few times, felt good, and couldn't help but want to play a few notes.

Unfortunately, there's no drum set here, so I can't play for her.

"I suggest you find another stick later, and then you can start a band with Pochi-chan," Tsukikawa Shuu laughed. "Playing together in the Otherworld, hmm, that would be pretty good."

“Who would form a band in the Otherworld?” Ichiji Nikka said.

While making jokes, Tsukikawa Shuu was also giving Ijichi Nijika various instructions.

"Now, our goal is to kill all the monsters between levels 10 and 15 and push the monster level down by a significant margin."

The county is neither small nor large, especially since monsters of similar levels like to live in groups, so finding and eliminating them all is not difficult.

……

……

While Tsukikawa Shu was leveling up, the teams under Kitamura Motoyasu, Amaki Ren, and Kawasumi Itsuki were still arguing heatedly.

The group found a level 1-5 spider nest, and their current level is only enough to farm this kind of thing.

However, an argument broke out regarding how to distribute the gained experience and loot.

They started arguing even before the fight began, just standing at the door.

“I’m telling you, I’m a top-level mentor, Kitamura Motoyasu’s team, you should give us the experience,” one of the blonde girls said.

"Why should we? We're members of Lord Kawasumi Itsuki's team, and we have the highest output with bows and guns. Why should we give you the experience points?"

The player holding the bow and arrow and the gun said angrily.

"Hmph, don't you think we don't have any damage output? We warriors can both fight and tank, and we can't be short of experience," another group of warriors chimed in.

The three parties began to argue, which gradually turned into a quarrel.

"Can't you two just shut up for a bit? Try to talk some sense into them," Kitamura Motoyasu said helplessly to the other three people in the room.

"Kitamura Motoyasu, let me make this clear: even if you're the highest-level player, I won't give in." Kawasumi Itsuki put his feet up on the table, looking completely indifferent.

“Indeed, I won’t back down at this point either.” Tenki Renya nodded.

Chapter 168 Battle Priest

"You two won't give up even the slightest benefit! Have you even considered the bigger picture?" Kitamura Motoyasu said angrily.

His team had more members, so his level was already lower than the other two after being split evenly. He desperately needed experience to level up and catch up, but when he wanted to get more experience points, he found that the other two objected.

"That's the big picture, and my team is the big picture!" Kawasumi Itsuki laughed. "My team has the highest potential for damage output!"

"Without my warriors to absorb the damage for you, there would be no overall situation. My warriors who can both withstand and fight are the key to the overall situation!" Tianmu Lianye said.

The three teams were arguing fiercely. Kitamura Motoyasu, Amaki Ren, and Kawasumi Itsuki were all prioritizing their own interests and refused to give in, resulting in a stalemate.

As for Tsukikawa Shuu, since she had already explained that Ijichi Niji Natsumi had left alone, she did not join the argument.

"Hey, Tsukikawa, you let your member go alone, did he die?" Kawasumi Itsuki, bored, swung his foot and looked at Tsukikawa Shuu.

Tsukikawa Shuu glanced at the fifteen-year-old chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) student, too lazy to pay him any attention, and continued talking to Ijichi Nijika.

"How boring." Kawasumi clicked his tongue. "He's unwilling to answer, and he's still giving instructions and explanations. Could it be that one of his priest members encountered a monster?"

"Encountering monsters? Hahaha, we've come this far, far from a relatively safe area. I hope we won't be killed by monsters by now!" Kitamura Motoyasu laughed.

"That's a possibility, after all, a support character without offensive capabilities can't go very far." Tianmu Lian nodded with his arms crossed.

However, things soon changed.

Because Ijichi Nijika and Tsukikawa Shuu turned off their live streaming channels, most people stopped paying attention to them and instead focused on the other three teams.
