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

The fog completely dissipated, and silence spread through the cave.

Naza and her teammates stared at the mutated clown's corpse on the ground, as if petrified.

Shocked.

Unparalleled shock.

Who exactly is this man?

Powerful amplification skills, and those incomprehensible sword techniques.

Can the fox-girl next to me level up?

Although Nazha had many questions in her mind, she wouldn't ask them.

"Vina, Lina."

Naza took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her surprise and regaining her composure.

"Deal with the spoils of war."

"Yes!"

The dwarf sisters began to skillfully process the monster's corpse and mine magic stones.

When they dealt with the mutated clown monster, Vina let out a gasp.

"Commander! Look at this!"

She carefully removed two items from the mutated clown's corpse.

A pair of sharp claws gleaming with a dark, eerie light, and a small piece of throat tissue that was still slightly wriggling.

Naza's eyes lit up instantly; good stuff!

"Rare materials."

"Mutant claws and a howling throat!"

"These claws are the finest material for making penetrating weapons; they are priceless."

"And this throat, after being processed with magic stone powder, can be made into a spray mist tool. Although its effect is not as good as the clown demon itself, it can be very effective in battle, especially against monsters with outstanding eyesight!"

Upon hearing this,

A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of therapist Gerald.

The delivery went well this time; everyone received a good amount.

Without any hesitation, Nazha took the two valuable materials, walked up to Lynn, and solemnly handed them over.

"Lynn, this is your spoils."

"If it weren't for you, we might all be dead here today."

Therapist Gerf was about to say something, but when he saw Nazha's eyes, he immediately lowered his head and dared not say another word.

Lynn looked at the claws and throat; he knew it was worth some money, and accepted it without hesitation.

Thank you.

Lynn replied politely, without much formality.

This is indeed the fruit of my own labor.

He then added:

"However, those magic stones from the goblins and dungeon lizards are yours."

The goblins and dungeon lizards surrounding him were indeed unrelated to him.

The main feature is a real blink.

Naza nodded, showing no humility.

After a short rest, Nazha said to Lynn, "We need to go deeper and resupply on the eighteenth floor. What about you guys?"

"We're getting ready to go back." Lynn glanced at Chunji. Today's training objectives had been achieved, and even far exceeded expectations.

After saying goodbye to Nazha's team, Lynn, with Chunji in tow, successfully returned to the ground.

The two went straight to the guild.

Eina smiled gently when she saw them return safely. "Lynn, Chunji, welcome back. How was your first expedition?"

In fact, Eina observes every adventurer she hosts.

Judging from the intactness of Lynn and Chunji's clothing, they should not have suffered any injuries.

The blood on its body must also be from the monster.

Lynn placed the bag full of magic stones on the counter.

"Things went fairly smoothly. I'd like to exchange these for fares."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Eina began to count the magic stones.

however,

The smile on her face froze the moment she pulled the pair of black claws and the piece of throat tissue from the bag.

"This...this is...the claws and howling throat of a mutated clown?!"

Eina's beautiful half-elf eyes were filled with shock.

"This monster is arguably second only to 'War Shadow' as a rookie killer! You guys..."

Lynn calmly explained, "We are grateful to the leaders of the village for their help."

The Mih clan?

Upon hearing this, Eina's surprise only increased.

If it was Nazha and her group who solved it, then according to the rules of adventurers,

How could such valuable materials, worth over a million fares, be given entirely to Lynn and Chunji?

The only explanation is that Lynn played a decisive role in this battle!

Eina quickly dealt with all the spoils and pushed a heavy money bag in front of Lynn.

"This is your total earnings this time: 1.25 million rare materials, 80,000 magic stones, and 20 million fali that you previously deposited with me. Please keep it safe."

Lynn took the two bags of money, one large and one small.

The small amount is today's harvest; if there are no rare materials, it's only 80,000 pieces.

Because he possesses the ability to turn back like a swallow, the loss of equipment and the consumption of medicine are negligible.

An ordinary adventurer, unable to kill as many goblins as he did, would be lucky to make ten or twenty thousand after deducting losses.

In a tavern like the one with the owner of the lavish restaurant, a slightly more elaborate meal could cost around 6000 fali.

From this perspective,

The Asteria Familia's 30 million start-up capital was incredibly generous!

45. Lynn sold herself to pay off debts.

The spacious and bright hall of the Astrea Familia's residence.

Ryu was leaning over the table, examining the ledgers.

"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands..."

Alexie and Kaguya sat to one side, one quietly polishing her beloved knife, the other elegantly sipping her black tea.

"The accounting is complete." Ryu sat up straight, slammed the ledger on the table, and announced coldly:

"The family's public reserve funds have only 12.68 million fali left."

"Spending 25 million on equipment for Lynn and Chunji, isn't that... a bit too much?"

"not much."

Leader Alexandra stopped what she was doing and said firmly:

"Top-tier protective gear is the foundation for their safe exploration of the upper levels."

Kaguya put down her teacup and added, "Moreover, since we value this so much, the other clans' petty people see it and dare not easily provoke them."

Alexie nodded, a sly glint in her eyes.

"Money can be earned back. Now we can make them sell themselves to pay off their debts!"

"What did you say?!" Kaguya suddenly stood up, her face full of anger.

"Alice! That's not what you said back then!"

"What do you mean by selling yourself into servitude to pay off debts? We're not like the Ishtar clan, those loan sharks!"

She clenched her fists tightly, her emotions running high. "I personally handed them that money!"

Ryu put down the ledger in her hand, a smile playing on her lips, and glanced at Kaguya lightly;

"Kaguya, why are you so excited?"

"You're just in a hurry."

"I didn't!" Kaguya's cheeks flushed slightly as she immediately retorted.

"This is not the same thing! Even if it were someone else, we cannot do this!"

"If it was borrowed, it should have been made clear at the beginning. How could they use this method afterwards?"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Alexie quickly waved her hand and burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, I was just joking."

She explained, "What I meant by 'selling oneself to pay off debts' is that we want our two precious babies to come with us on more missions in the future."

"With their assistance, the strength of our entire clan will be greatly enhanced."

"At most, it just means they have to get up a little earlier and go to bed a little later, and work a little harder."

Hearing this explanation, Kaguya's tense expression finally eased. She sat down again, but still muttered under her breath, "That's not how it works..."

Unbeknownst to her, Lynn's importance in Kaguya's heart had been growing steadily.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and Lyra, a dwarf, walked in, panting, carrying large bags of groceries.

"I'm back... I'm exhausted."

She placed the dishes on the table and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Yulari has been quite turbulent lately; vegetable prices have gone up quite a bit."

"I heard that several of Demeter's pumpkin fields were vandalized a few days ago."

Lyra picked up the ledger and glanced at it, her brows furrowing. "Our income has also dropped sharply. Lately, everyone's been keeping an eye on the Dark Faction, and nobody's going to the dungeons."

"Alice, we still need to control our spending lately."

"Relax, relax!" Alexie patted her chest nonchalantly and said in a strong voice, "Don't worry! There will be beer, and there will be barbecue too!"

"Besides, who said none of us go to the dungeon?"

She proudly gestured with her chin towards the underground city.

"Lynn and Chunji, didn't they go?"

Upon hearing this, Lyra wore an expression that was both amused and exasperated. "My dear guild leader, how much money do you think two level 1 newbies can make on their first dungeon run?"

Alexandra puffed out her chest defiantly, "The first time I went, I earned a full forty thousand falies!"

"Lynn and Chunji together must have at least 30,000!"

Ryu casually chimed in, "Captain, the reason you were able to earn so much back then was because you recklessly hunted goblins everywhere."

Lyra nodded in agreement. "Exactly, I'd be perfectly content if Lynn and Chunji could earn ten thousand falies peacefully."

Iska, who had been fixing her hair and makeup in front of the mirror, suddenly turned around, her eyes darting around, and said, "How about we make a bet?"

“I bet Lynn and his team can make ten thousand.”

“Ten thousand? That’s underestimating us!” Alexie immediately retorted. “The bets have to be big to be fun! And everyone’s bets have to be different!”

"I'll bet 30,000!"
