A cross-dressing anime, starting with Kaguya-sama: Love Is War.

"Alright, alright!" Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense again, Alexie quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

“It’s almost dawn, and we can’t stay here any longer. Let’s talk about it back in Yulari! There are monster corpses and blood all over the place here, and if we stay any longer, we might attract something else.”

Her words reminded everyone that this place was indeed not a safe place to linger.

“Lethesa,” Artemis commanded, turning around.

“Yes!” Lessa replied immediately.

"Clean up the battlefield, take stock of the wounded, and prepare to return."

"clear!".

Under the command of their respective leaders, the members of the two clans began to move about in an orderly manner.

The girls of the Artemis Familia were responsible for handling Andares's body; their methods were professional, clearly those of seasoned hunters.

The members of the Astrea Familia were responsible for guarding the area and helping to treat the wounded.

The atmosphere remained strange on the way back to Yulari.

The two families walked on either side of the procession, clearly separated by a river.

The members of the Astrea Familia would occasionally glance curiously at the agile and taciturn girls of the Artemis Familia.

Meanwhile, the other side was also observing them.

Lynn was sandwiched in the middle, with Artemis clinging to his arm on his left, refusing to let go.

On the right is Kaguya, who, although she didn't touch him, kept her eyes fixed on him out of the corner of her eye.

He felt as if he were being pulled by two powerful gravitational forces.

Kaguya's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

She didn't really care how many women were around Lynn.

However, what she accepted were "family" like Ryu, Alexie, and Iska, who lived, fought, laughed, and cried with them.

But Artemis is different.

She is a true deity, an outsider.

When the two teams appeared at the gates of Yulari, they immediately caused quite a stir.

The guards rubbed their eyes, almost thinking they were seeing things.

Isn't that the banner of the Astrea Familia? How come they came back with another group?

The other team, also composed entirely of women, wore insignia belonging to the Artemis Familia, which sent chills down the spines of even the most seasoned adventurers.

"Good heavens, it's the Artemis Familia! Aren't they usually active outside of Yullari? Why are they suddenly coming into the city?"

"Look at them walking together with the Astrea Familia, could it be a joint operation?"

"Look at those people in the middle! That's Astraea's Yamato Rindou, and... is that Artemis herself?!"

"Who is that man sandwiched between the two goddesses?!"

"Wait! The man sandwiched between the goddess and that Far Eastern girl... isn't he Lynn, the hero who took down two Level 5 members of the Dark Faction a while ago?"

Yulali is never short of news, but newcomers like Lynn who have made a series of big moves in such a short period of time are few and far between.

And now, the way this hero has returned is truly astounding.

"Am I seeing things? Artemis... is holding Lynn's arm?" A dwarf adventurer rubbed his eyes hard, his face full of disbelief.

"It's more than just holding hands, look at that posture, it's practically like... declaring ownership!" His companion whispered, his tone full of envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"That's one of the three great goddesses! Artemis, one of the goddesses! Countless men haven't even had the chance to say a word to her!"

"But isn't that Kaguya Yamato of the Astraea Familia, Ryuga? I heard they're getting married tomorrow!"

"what?"

"Hero, goddess, fiancée... My God, what kind of epic novel has this plot?"

"This is going to be interesting. Do you think the wedding can still go ahead tomorrow?"

Various discussions and speculations arose, mixed with undisguised envy and jealousy.

Artemis remained as self-righteous as ever, even taking in the surrounding buildings and people with great interest.

Kaguya, on the other hand, maintained her composure throughout, keeping her eyes straight ahead, as if the gossip had nothing to do with her.

The procession crossed the main road and finally arrived at the Astrea Familia's encampment;

"Kaguya, Alexie, you're finally back!"

The goddess Astraea stood in the courtyard, clearly having waited all night, her face showing signs of exhaustion.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her children return safely.

But the next second, her gaze fell on Artemis, who was following behind the group, and the group of unfamiliar girls behind her.

But when she saw Artemis linking arms with Lynn, her expression became subtle.

.................

"Artemis? How could you..."

The goddess Astraea strode forward, and a long-lost smile appeared on her face as she faced her old friend.

“Asteria!” Artemis also seemed delighted, but she didn’t let go of Lynn’s arm. “It’s been a long time!”

The two goddesses hugged, and then Astraea looked at Lynn, who was sandwiched in the middle, with some confusion.

"What did this child do to offend you?"

"Got him?" Artemis blinked, then answered matter-of-factly, "He's my Orion! I've found my destined partner!"

Astraea paused for three seconds.

Then she turned her head, looked at Kaguya, then at Lynn, and finally her gaze fell on Artemis's face.

"Artemis, are you running a fever?"

"I'm fine! I've never felt this good!"

Astraea touched Artemis's forehead to make sure she wasn't sick, and then carefully observed her expression.

Then, she sighed.

"alright, I got it."

Astraea turned to Lynn, her expression turning somewhat helpless.

"Lynn, I can't help you with this."

What can't be helped?

"what?"

Looking into the eyes of the goddess Astraea, Lynn was momentarily stunned.

“When Artemis gets serious, no one can stop her,” Astraea shrugged. “Besides, since she says you're Orion, it's probably true.”

Lynn's expression instantly fell.

It seems I'll have to figure out a way to handle this myself.

“However,” Astraea changed the subject, “the wedding will still proceed as planned tomorrow, as for Artemis…”

Astraea looked at her old friend.

"Would you like to attend the wedding?"

“Of course!” Artemis agreed without hesitation. “I want to see my Orion get married!”

Everyone present was stunned by these words.

Alexie's mouth dropped open. "Wait, Artemis, are you going to watch your beloved marry someone else?"

"Is there a problem?" Artemis asked back. "Marriage isn't a bad thing. Besides, Kaguya looks really good, and I quite like her."

Kaguya was caught off guard by this sudden surge of affection.

"Artemis..."

"Just call me Artemis," the goddess said with a smile and a wave of her hand. "We'll probably see each other quite often in the future."

Lynn also breathed a sigh of relief. He absolutely disliked and could not accept anything like a chaotic love triangle.

You've come to the wrong place. If a woman wants to control him to death, she'll demand that he only love her.

Wouldn't that mean I wasted my time traveling?

However, just to be sure, Lynn still asked, "Artemis, are you really not worried?"

“What do you mind?” Artemis tilted her head. “I never said I wanted to possess you. Lynn is mine, but Lynn belongs to someone else too.”

Good buddy.

Lynn was impressed by Artemis; she truly lived up to her divine status with her grand vision.

“And,” Artemis continued, “I’ve never really understood love. But I know I don’t want you out of my sight.”

She released Lynn's arm but remained standing beside him.

"So, if living with Kaguya makes you happy, then I'm happy too."

Kaguya stared blankly at the goddess.

She had expected a fierce battle, but she never imagined the other party would be so... magnanimous?

“However,” Artemis added, “after the wedding, I will live with you.”

"what?"

“I told you, I don’t want Lynn out of my sight,” Artemis said matter-of-factly. “Besides, the Astrea Familia is so lively, my family members can also get some rest here.”

Lessa, listening from the side, rolled her eyes.

Goddess, are you planning to move your entire clan here?

Didn't you consider whether Astraea would agree?

But when Lethea saw Astraea's loving smile, she no longer had any doubts.

“Wait,” Alexie raised her hand, “I have a question. Artemis, I heard that your kin are forbidden from falling in love? Now you yourself…”

“Now it is.” Artemis blinked. “I have found my Orion. It is fate that has changed me.”

Because of Artemis's magnanimous attitude, the two families did not have any obvious conflict over Lynn's matter.

Therefore, the residence of the Astrea Familia was exceptionally lively.

The two girls from different clans gathered in the hall. Although they were still a little reserved with each other, the atmosphere had eased considerably.

The members of the Artemis Familia, having a rare opportunity to rest in their usual spot, were curiously observing their cozy home.

Artemis himself was pulled aside by the goddess Astraea, and the two were talking quietly.

Lynn sat on the stone steps in the courtyard, holding a cup of hot tea in her hands.

"Lynn."

The voice came from behind, and Kaguya walked over carrying a small tray with some delicate pastries on it.

“Sit down!” Lynn turned her head.

Kaguya sat down beside him. "The wedding is tomorrow. I'm actually a little nervous."

She paused, then added, "Moreover, so much happened today."

Lynn shook his head with a wry smile: "Yeah, I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Actually, I don't mind."

Kaguya suddenly spoke, her calm tone surprising Lynn.

"what?"
