Crossover Anime: Starting from Soul Society and Slicing Through All Worlds

I only glanced at Chapter 40, and I'm already expected to take responsibility?

"Then what should we do? Even if I wanted to take responsibility, you wouldn't approve of me, right? You already thought I was a pervert, so why don't we just pretend it's a misunderstanding..."

Before Ye Cheng could finish speaking, Cui had already taken out a large bag of gold coins from her storage space.

"I want you to be my... husband."

When she said those words, Cui's voice was trembling and broken due to intense shame.

Night City: (_;)

Having clearly heard what Cui said and understood its meaning, Ye Cheng looked at the elven girl in front of him with a shocked expression.

He had considered many ways the girl might punish him, but this was a situation that Ye Cheng had never imagined, no matter how hard he tried.

This isn't a punishment at all, it's practically a reward!

To be honest, Cui's appearance is truly impeccable. Even in this other world where the average appearance level is extremely high, Ye Cheng has never seen a girl more beautiful than Cui so far.

And this elfin beauty dares to act all high and mighty now? Is this really not a world of hentai? Why is this plot so outrageous?

If I agree, will we be able to achieve racial integration quickly and directly enter the paid content?

After all, an episode is only about 20 minutes long, and if you cut off the beginning and the end, it's less than 20 minutes at most. Ye Cheng was very confident in his abilities and felt that 20 minutes was not enough to end the battle.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this because I like you, but... the way we looked before was seen by those old ladies in the neighborhood."

They also think we're a couple, so this is all just a performance for them... Yeah, that's how it is, so don't overthink it.

"I am a female elf... a pure maiden, how could I possibly fall for a pervert like you?"

Seeing Ye Cheng fall silent as he drifted into thought, the elven girl quickly blushed and defended herself for what she had said earlier.

As for her explanation, Ye Cheng, being a straight man, believed it instantly and said with a knowing look, "I see. Did the previous misunderstanding have a negative impact on your reputation?"

Indeed, if they weren't married, the woman would definitely be considered shameless if she did that kind of thing.

The elves value their reputation highly, so this is understandable...

After hearing Ye Cheng perfectly patch up his explanation and make it coherent, Cui's face showed a speechless expression.

She had never been in a relationship, but she knew that most human men wouldn't react this way to the advances of a beautiful elven girl like herself.

Now there's a beautiful elf girl who wants to be your wife, shouldn't you be trying to make this a reality? What's with you acting all clear-headed right now!

"Miss Cui, please rest assured. Although it was a misunderstanding, I am partly responsible for this matter, so I will play the role of husband properly from now on."

As for compensation, let's forget about it. It's true that I like money, but I still have basic professional ethics.

Until Miss Cui wants to move out, or feels that this relationship no longer needs to continue, I will fully cooperate with you.

Looking at the large bag of gold coins in front of Cui, Ye Cheng estimated that there were at least a hundred gold coins inside, which further confirmed his belief that she was a wealthy woman. However, despite his strong reluctance, Ye Cheng ultimately refused the reward.

The other party had already given him a good look and provided him with so many benefits; it would be really excessive for him to take their money now.

And if he even takes this money, wouldn't Ye Cheng become... something else entirely...?

In short, it's true that he likes money, but he shouldn't lose his basic moral integrity.

"Hmph, whatever. Since you've agreed to my request, then in public, we'll have to act like husband and wife."

"And since you already have such a young and beautiful wife as me, you can't go and mess around with other women."

Seeing that Ye Cheng refused her payment, Cui's lips unconsciously curled up slightly, and then she added a few more points to note.

"Ah, isn't pretending to be a married couple only for the few old ladies living nearby? Why pretend to be a married couple outside as other people don't know about what just happened?"

And the requirement that I can't flirt with girls... can't have any contact with other women? That's too much! How am I supposed to find a girlfriend?! I was originally thinking that since I'm in another world, I should at least marry a beautiful girl from that other world!

Upon hearing Cui's additional request, Ye Cheng naturally raised his hand in protest. He had agreed so readily before because he thought their role-playing game was limited to this home.

Anyway, he's an adventurer, while Cui needs to travel all over the world searching for ancient relics. They're rarely home, and it's hard to say when they'll be back. The chances of them running into each other are even lower.

That's why Ye Cheng had no objection to that kind of husband-and-wife role-playing.

But now it seems that Cui's role-playing game is not as simple as he imagined!

"Hmph, since you already promised me, I'll decide the rules."

Moreover, those older women were clearly gossipy; can you guarantee they won't spread what they just saw?

Furthermore, since they are a married couple, it would be strange for them to act separately. They're not stupid; if they acted that way, people would quickly notice something was wrong.

As an adventurer, you're just looking to make money, right? But I'm not interested in money at all. My goal is simply to collect ancient artifacts lost all over the world, so our goals don't conflict.

If we team up, I can help you complete the adventurer's quests, and as for payment, I won't ask for a single penny.

In return, if you discover any ancient artifacts, you must do your best to help me. I won't let you work for nothing; I can even pay you a reward.

Ye Cheng was eventually persuaded by Cui because the conditions offered by Cui were simply too generous.

Night City doesn't discriminate against team operations, and Cui's strength is indeed quite good, so why not have an extra free fighter?

On the contrary, if he comes across information about ancient relics and lends a hand, he can actually earn some extra money. Where else can you find such a lucrative job?

The only drawback that Ye Cheng felt was that even when they were in a team, Ye Cheng had to keep his previous agreement with Cui and play the role of husband and wife. Ye Cheng also couldn't flirt with other girls, because Cui said that their elven race practiced monogamy!
