I'm doing a crossover anime/manga project, and I'm creating a new kind of "Moonlight&

However, the funds from the Toyokawa family haven't arrived yet. I'll personally contribute 30 million yen as your bonus this time.

Once the remaining funds arrive, we'll provide another 100 million. You can figure out how to divide it yourselves.

Ding ding ding, three notification sounds indicating the arrival of the Heavenly Jade.

Rosser smiled but remained silent.

thirty million?

Is there another 100 million to go?

Even Ayanokoji's hand trembled.

Although he was the son of a politician, to be honest, he was more of a tool than a son, having grown up in a laboratory called the White Room.

The only time he ever had money was when the butler gave him 300,000 yen.

Even he was like this, leaving both Hikigaya and Kazuma stunned.

No, you actually gave me money!

These two, one dropped out of school and stays at home, doing odd jobs when he has nothing to do, so he knows very well how hard it is to make money.

One matured early, constantly checking prices and incomes, and concluded that it was indeed better to find a rich woman to be a stay-at-home husband.

I completely understand what a huge sum of 130 million is.

In 2023, the average annual salary in Japan before tax, including insurance, bonuses, and other benefits, was 318.3 million yen, which is about 26.5 yen per month.

In Tokyo, it's only about 28 yen, and the median is about 0.8 times the average.

This includes bonuses, insurance, taxes, etc. Most people in Tokyo earn around 22 yen.

Does this number represent someone living in Tokyo?

These damn streetlight ornaments are treating people like livestock!

Otherwise, he might want to be a stay-at-home dad. Neither side is easy to live like a beast of burden, so he'd rather not do it if he can avoid it.

Volume 1: Chapter 52 Land War God Transformation!

Most data from Japan only tells you the average pre-tax salary for companies with 5 or more employees, which is approximately 330,000 yen.

This number is enough to live comfortably even in Tokyo.

The problem is that full-time employees in companies with five or more employees only account for about half of the total employed population.

The other half... Amitabha Buddha~~~

So, this 30 million, no, 130 million.

If it's split among three people, that's 43 million each.

Although it's a lot, if the two of them split it, it's 65 million yen!

And you don't have to pay those messy taxes anyway, and I doubt anyone would dare to collect them anyway.

That's more than enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

Rejoice, Komachi! Adore, Komachi! Your brother is now a social elite!

Please at least give me a score of 1000 for my brother!!

He thought of the adoring look Komachi gave him when he took her on trips around the world, and the way his parents bowed and called him "Hachiman-sama"...

Hikigaya's expression changed.

With a forced smile, he pressed down on Kazuma's shoulder: "Hey Kazuma, I've thought about it carefully, and the life of an investigator really isn't suitable for an ordinary person like you. It's too dangerous, haha. I think you'd be more of a contribution to society if you continued to stay at home."

"what?"

Kazuma's face was contorted with rage, and the veins on his hand were bulging as he gripped Kazuma's hand: "Sir, you are my sun! My ideal is to fight for humanity until the end of time! What are you talking about, you bastard? I don't understand a word you say."

More than forty million!

That's over forty million.

He could easily live a life of leisure back in his hometown.

It's just an adventure...

That's too much. What's a mere life worth?

Grandpa Kazuma loves adventure the most!

The two men had ferocious expressions, veins bulging, as if they had transformed into land-based war gods, resembling Attack on Titans, just short of unleashing their fury...

(Izu-senpai: You kids have a lot of potential. Would you be interested in joining the diving club and enjoying the beautiful ocean?)

Shiina Tatsuki was stunned.

Are all boys like this?

Although 130 million was indeed a dizzying number for her...

"Here, have a bite of fresh watermelon, and watch the show while you eat."

Rosser handed her a slice of bright red watermelon, squatted down beside her, and watched with great interest.

The tactic of "two peaches kill three warriors" is timeless.

In just a short while, seven or eight more Heavenly Dao Jade pieces were added.

Clearly, money has a significant stimulating effect on these "mature" teenagers.

"Oh, thank you!...Amai—(So sweet~)!"

Tie Mei Jiang took a bite and her eyes lit up.

It was even chilled?

Eating a bite of chilled watermelon in the summer while enjoying the evening breeze is an absolute delight.

It feels like a dream today...

Feeling the long-lost coolness, Shiina Tatsuki recalled the dreamlike feeling of the evening breeze as she soared high in the sky...

and many more.

Tie Mei Jiang suddenly woke up, as if startled, and took a few steps back: "W-you-you...when...?"

Rosser, looking puzzled, held up the half-eaten watermelon: "I'm eating watermelon~~"

"Iron... I didn't mean that..."

As soon as the words left his mouth.

Shiina Tatsuki then felt it was impolite and explained, "What I meant... I meant, how did you get the watermelon here? Yes, that's what I meant..."

The girl blushed and turned her head away.

Rother pondered for a moment, then tapped his palm, suddenly realizing, "I get it, you're interested in me!"

"ha------?"

Shiina Tatsuki, who is always straightforward, faces an unprecedented challenge.

Her face turned bright red: "Damn it, who would fall for someone they've just met?"

"Hey hey hey, I didn't say I liked you, but there must be some attraction, right?"

Rother was nonchalant.

"No, there isn't!"

"Really do not have?"

"No, absolutely not."

"You're blushing."

"Luselle—!"

"Really not? But I do have some feelings for Tetsuya-chan."

"Eh—? No, um, I... wait, who is Tetsume-chan?!"

At this moment, Shiina Tatsuki will never use the interjection "teme" again in his life.

Rosser glanced at the girl, who had relaxed and returned to her normal self, and smiled.

The "hero saves the damsel in distress" trope is just like that; it's simply the suspension bridge effect.

When it comes to feelings, Rother prefers love that grows over time, a lifelong commitment to one person.

For example, him and Yang Nai... oh, and Mai, no, Toka...

Hey, speaking of which, Mai's almost going through puberty syndrome, right? If she becomes invisible, wouldn't it be possible to play a game of putting a hat on Haruno in front of her?

next to.

Shiina Riki keenly noticed that the young man next to him had suddenly become very lewd.

Instantly, she became alert and hugged her well-developed body, taking two steps back.

"Pfft~"

Rose chuckled, making a gesture that suggested a Korean was about to lose their composure: "Although Lixi-chan is well-developed, compared to a mature woman, she's still..."

Shiina Riki: “?”

Big fire!

Three sentences were enough to bring Tie Meijiang back to normal.

......

"Pah pah~~"

Rother threw away the watermelon rind, stood up, and clapped his hands: "Alright, you can discuss how to divide it in private. You should find someone to dispose of this first."

? ?

Kazuma and Hikigaya were taken aback and released each other.

What to deal with?

"I've already unsealed (eaten raw) the ghost stories, but..."

Then they saw Rosser flick out a wisp of light, which rapidly expanded in the air and transformed into a struggling woman.

He continued with a smile, "I've preserved the vessel of the ghost story, which is that evil spirit. Who among you will deal with it?"

"Get rid of this?"

The three of them looked over at the same time.

It was that dead face they would never forget in their lives, now pitifully piecing together flesh and broken bones, struggling to stand up, and staggering forward in extreme fear.

Its body was translucent, without the slightest trace of a curse; anyone could see that it was a pure soul.

So, why do we need to deal with it?

A thought suddenly flashed through Hachiman's mind.

Ayanokouji remained unresponsive, her expression unchanged, clearly indifferent.

Kazuma, on the other hand, rubbed his hands together, somewhat eager to try.

Clearly, this guy holds a grudge.

Rosser took in their reactions one by one, thinking to himself.

Of the three, he actually favored Kazuma the most.

Even disregarding his incredible luck, he is quite mature and determined. He may seem unreliable, but he could actually survive in another world.
