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

"At most, it's when no one's around at night, I'll be in my room, reminiscing about my embarrassing past while silently wiping away tears..."

Goto Ichiri spoke without much confidence, her voice growing softer and softer.

Her ahoge (cowlick) remained droopy, and she poked her two fingers together to ease her unease.

"You don't need to hide your personality."

At that moment, Goto Ichiri felt himself being gently hugged from behind.

“But I only radiate negative emotions, which makes people dislike me…” Goto Ichiri said hesitantly.

“I like the real you, no matter what the real you is like,” Tsukikawa Shuu said with a smile. “You are someone I can understand, and likewise, I hope I can become someone you can understand.”

"That's enough."

Goto Ichiri pouted angrily, wanting to say something, but then she felt a warm, wet sensation on her face and realized what was happening, her face turning red.

Tsukikawa Shu gave her a light peck on the cheek, and Goto Ichiri was instantly captivated.

"Don't do it so suddenly..."

Goto Ichiri instinctively wanted to push the other person's face away, but after thinking about it, she felt it was inappropriate.

The other person is now her boyfriend... no, in this world he's her husband, so it's normal for them to do these things, right?

“At least… at least let me know first,” Goto Ichiri stammered.

Looking at her shy appearance, Tsukikawa Shu thought for a moment and suddenly felt like teasing her again.

“Okay, then let me kiss you again,” Tsukikawa Shuu said.

"..."

Before Goto Ichiri could react, Tsukikawa Shu approached again.

"and many more……"

However, her refusal was useless, and Goto Ichiri was once again controlled by her husband.

This time it wasn't just a light peck, but a lingering peck for several seconds.

As time went on, Goto Ichiri's face gradually turned like a red-hot iron, even emitting white smoke. He was held in Tsukikawa Shuu's arms, and his whole body felt like it had lost its bones.

"You don't have to keep your thoughts to yourself anymore. You can tell me whatever you want to say," Tsukikawa Shuu said. "After all, I'm your boyfriend."

While he could be called her husband, the two of them haven't actually reached that point yet, nor have they gotten used to each other. At this point, it's just right for them to be lovers.

"Mm." Goto Ichiri nodded, her face flushed.

After that, apart from the necessary battles, the two held hands.

Goto Ichiri gradually got used to having someone holding her little hand and became less resistant.

They'd already held hands and even kissed and hugged in just two days—that was pretty good progress, Tsukikawa Shu thought to herself.

With the help and prompts from the system map, the two of them became significantly more efficient at killing monsters.

As the level increases, this other world gradually seems to become less scary.

As long as you avoid the high-level monster lairs, the others are great places to level up.

Goto Ichiri was in charge of control, using a curse to control the entire field, and then Tsukikawa Shuu leisurely entered the field, using a physical holy sword to smash the heads of those monsters.

Of course, when Goto Ichiri becomes extremely wicked, he will personally intervene, just like at the beginning, and crush the heads of these monsters with his bare hands.

After forging a fateful pact, the two leveled up at an astonishing pace.

At the end of the day, Tsukikawa Shuu had reached level 15, and Goto Ichiri had reached level 13.

Chapter 8

Players who can defeat higher-level monsters and defeat more monsters will become increasingly stronger, thus creating an insurmountable level gap.

By the end of the day, both of them had reaped a great harvest. When Tsukikawa Shuu opened his system inventory, he saw it was overflowing with items dropped by monsters or picked up along the way.

They even found two green-grade weapons.

Putting aside other unknown areas, Tsukikawa Shu already has a full bag of all the materials and items that monsters from levels 1 to 20 can drop, more than the two of them can possibly use.

"Such a large amount of materials should be of great use later."

Tsukikawa Hiiragi pondered.

As long as the inner world continues to exist, players will develop their own unique society, at which point there will be various material transactions.

Currently, both Tsukikawa Shuu and Goto Ichiri are capable of challenging opponents of higher levels, and have thus acquired a considerable amount of higher-level materials that others cannot obtain, which will give them a significant advantage.

Hmm... using high-quality and precious materials to acquire many virtuous wives is also a good choice.

Tsukikawa Shuu held Goto Ichiri's little hand as they walked, pondering how to juggle multiple relationships.

Looking at Goto Ichiri beside her, she was still looking the same silly girl, squinting her eyes, immersed in the joy of finding a boyfriend.

In the real world, I am definitely a scumbag, but the difference is that I will take responsibility for all the girls.

However, this applies to the real world. In the other world, strength reigns supreme, and monogamy does not exist.

"It's getting late, let's find a place to rest," said Tsukikawa Shuu.

Goto Ichiri nodded.

Just as the two looked around, intending to find a safe place like yesterday, some figures appeared ahead. A group of people were walking and arguing, and they didn't seem to be having a very pleasant time.

"They seem to be from Seaside Comprehensive High School."

Goto Ichiri watched for a while and then said.

Tsukikawa Hiiragi searched her memory and had some recollection of it.

Seaside Comprehensive High School is a middle school in "My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As Expected", and the blue-haired boy in the lead is a member of the student council, but he is just a minor character.

Tsukikawa Shu had a very poor opinion of the student council because it contained many arrogant, condescending individuals who gave orders but were unwilling to take action or assume responsibility.

……

"I'm a member of the student council, and I'm much more capable than you. If you don't obey my orders, I might not even give you any materials!"

The blue-haired student at the head of the group was arrogantly issuing orders to the students around him.

The three students around were also angry but dared not speak out.

Seaside Comprehensive High School is also a key high school. Those who can get into the student council must have better leadership skills and intelligence than others, which established Koda Ken's position among these students.

Originally, he was just a menial member of the student council at the Seaside Comprehensive High School. However, after returning to this other world, he transformed from a rooster into a phoenix, experiencing firsthand the wonderful feeling of wielding power.

He held the blood-stained steel pipe in his hand, looking at the bloodstains that were not yet completely dry, and a pleased smile appeared on his face.

Originally, he was just a law-abiding student, but in this unrestrained other world, all the ugliness of human nature was unleashed.

In particular, after he discovered that killing other players also granted him experience and all of their items, he completely shed his facade as a model student.

Monsters are ferocious, but humans are much weaker, especially now that the inner world is open for the first time, and those who come in have little to no fighting ability.

First, use your past as a model student to get close to them, and then reveal your true colors to launch a surprise attack.

Players gain much more experience points than low-level monsters.

Not only that, he also recruited three students from the same school and threatened them to cooperate.

Working together means sharing experience points; not working together means death.

By threatening and offering benefits in this way, Ken Koda successfully built a team to hunt down players.

Besides killing and plundering for experience points, he also defiled two female students.

"This other world is very dangerous; you can't survive without being ruthless."

Ken Koda is still carrying out his PUA work, saying, "Your conscience and morality are not worth mentioning."

"As for those women you've toyed with, who knows? They're so weak, they're doomed in this world anyway. They might as well contribute some experience points and let us have some fun. You don't want such good experience packs to go to those monsters, do you?"

The other three remained silent, tacitly agreeing with Ken Koda's statement.

After all, they hadn't resisted the temptation when they met those two young female students. Koda Ken took the lead, and the others followed suit.

"As long as you don't tell and I don't tell, no one will know what we did in this world, and we can still live normal lives when we return to our original world," Ken Koda reminded him again.

At that moment, Kenya Koda spotted Tsukikawa Shuu and Goto Ichiri standing in the distance.

Similarly, Tsukikawa Hiiragi and Goto Ichiri were also watching them.

After leveling up, Tsukikawa Shuu's physical condition also improved, and her eyesight became excellent, allowing her to see the bloodstains on the weapons of the four people in front of her from afar.

Are you also newcomers to this world?

Upon seeing a living person, Ken Koda immediately changed his expression, reverting to his original gentle and model student demeanor, and approached with a steel pipe in hand.

The other three followed behind silently, carrying their weapons.

It was four against two, and one of the opponents was a thin girl who was no match for him. Koda Ken didn't bother to pretend anymore.

This alternate world has only been open for less than two days, and everyone's levels are not much different. Koda Ken and his team have gained a significant level advantage over the others by hunting down several players, and they are fearless.

All you need to do is lower the opponent's guard at the beginning and get close enough to take down those two experience packs.

Tsukikawa Shu did not answer the other person's question.
