Chapter 1066: Chapter 1059: Misumi Mikoto’s Mission
The matter of how Inomata Naoki intended to propose was completely taken over by Jounouchi Hiromi, as though she wanted to orchestrate an ideal proposal to compensate for the less than perfect one from Chen Yu back then.
Naturally, Chen Yu had no room for objection; how could he oppose his wife’s wishes?
While Jounouchi Hiromi was imrsed in her planning, Chen Yu continued preparing for his Deification Ritual.
Most preparations were already complete, yet there were still so matters requiring his attention.
For instance, his disciple Misumi Mikoto needed corresponding arrangents by Chen Yu.
Chen Yu did not intend for Misumi Mikoto to partake in this Deification Ritual.
Though witnessing such a ceremony would be an invaluable gain for Misumi Mikoto, bringing untold benefits, it simultaneously posed significant risks.
Chen Yu’s Deification Ritual would not only face the backlash of the world’s consciousness but also the army from the land of Yomi.
The inevitable divine war would render weaker individuals re cannon fodder at the ceremony site.
If Misumi Mikoto had already achieved Legendary rank, Chen Yu might consider allowing her presence at the ritual, but she had yet to break through to Legendary rank.
Although she had the Chitose Sisters summoned by Chen Yu beside her, they could only ensure self-preservation on such a battlefield, with no spare capacity to protect her.
“So, because I’m not strong enough, I don’t even have the qualification to witness your Deification Ritual, Sensei?” Misumi Mikoto looked at Chen Yu, sowhat downcast.
Having acquired the Necromancer heritage and becoming a Certified Necromancer, Misumi Mikoto naturally understood what Deification entailed, aware of how rare such rituals were and worrying how long she’d have to wait for another chance if missed.
Even for Necromancers, this was often sothing one might witness only once in a lifeti, so being denied due to insufficient strength was undoubtedly crushing for Misumi Mikoto.
But since Chen Yu had made his decision, he wouldn’t change it due to Misumi Mikoto’s emotions, he simply nodded and said, “That’s indeed the case, although at the Deification Ritual site, most of the strength of my Undead Legion and Mage Corps is comparable to yours, they are expendable, re cannon fodder that I wouldn’t lant losing. Do you see yourself as cannon fodder?”
Chen Yu’s question was undeniably sharp, and Misumi Mikoto felt a bruise to her pride, yet she had to admit that her strength indeed wasn’t sufficient for self-preservation at Chen Yu’s Deification Ritual.
“So, Sensei, are you here just to tell that I can’t witness your Deification Ritual?” Misumi Mikoto’s mood dipped, asking Chen Yu with a bit of disappointnt.
Chen Yu shook his head, explaining to Misumi Mikoto: “I’m here for Doctor Tokairin’s matter.”
“Tokairin? What’s the matter with her?” Misumi Mikoto, hearing her friend ntioned, instantly beca tense and concerned.
“Naoki plans to propose to her on Valentine’s Day, and Hiromi is helping him plan the proposal ceremony.” Upon ntioning this, Chen Yu saw the delighted smile on Misumi Mikoto’s face, happy for her friend, and poured cold water on her: “My Deification Ritual is on the sa day, and I believe you understand what this ans.”
Misumi Mikoto certainly understood Chen Yu’s words.
For Chen Yu to conduct the Deification Ritual, he had to break the boundary between life and death, necessitating the restoration of Inomata Naoki and Minami’s mories from their pipe dream at the Inari Shrine.
Yet this day coincided with Naoki’s proposal to Tokairin Yuko.
Misumi Mikoto almost didn’t need to think to realize how chaotic and terrible things would beco if Naoki regained his mories.
“Sensei, is it absolutely necessary to do this?” Misumi Mikoto looked at Chen Yu, her eyes filled with indescribable aning.
On the day of a marriage proposal, making the groom recall his forr lover, Misumi Mikoto truly wanted to grab Chen Yu by the collar and plead for decency, doing such a thing to ruin soone’s happiness would invite divine retribution.
However, Chen Yu was indifferent to the gaze of Misumi Mikoto; if it were so easy to accomplish Deification, he believed many would do the sa.
Compared to those in the Multiverse who would go to any extre for Deification, Chen Yu felt he was excessively kind.
“Of course, I must do it, all preparations are made, neither I nor the Inari God would allow a ritual change for the sake of an ordinary person.” Chen Yu’s stance was firm, yet he wasn’t rciless: “And I’ve co to you to prevent potential accidents and chaos.”
“Prevent accidents and chaos?” Misumi Mikoto was sowhat puzzled about Chen Yu’s intentions.
“I will restore Naoki’s mories after his successful proposal using a puppet, at which point he’ll surely experience mory disorder, so I need you to contain the situation on-site.” Chen Yu explained his intent to Misumi Mikoto, also clarifying her responsibilities: “You must prevent Naoki from impulsively making irreparable decisions, such as abandoning Doctor Tokairin to seek out Minami.”
Misumi Mikoto sowhat grasped Chen Yu’s aning, tentatively asked: “So you want to stop him from doing anything irrational?”
Chen Yu nodded, confidently said: “Prevent him from acting irrationally, ensure the proposal goes smoothly and successfully concludes, Tokairin agrees to marry him, and he takes no actions that might affect this decision—this is your responsibility, Mikoto.”
“But Sensei, after restoring Naoki-kun’s mories, wouldn’t he be rather impulsive?” Misumi Mikoto was unsure if she could accomplish what Chen Yu required: “Besides, you’re at the site yourself, why do you need to do these things?”
“At the site will only be a puppet of mine; after restoring Naoki’s mories, I need to focus entirely on the Deification Ritual, with no energy to manage what happens at the proposal site.” Chen Yu explained seriously to Misumi Mikoto, earnestly stating: “You’re the only one I trust on-site, that’s why I need you to control the situation.”
“Alright, I understand, I’ll ensure Naoki-kun’s proposal to Tokairin goes smoothly.” Misumi Mikoto hesitated briefly but ultimately agreed.
