Chapter 872: Chapter 866: The Gift
The appearance of the Seer made Chen Yu vigilant.
Although the ability to predict the future is very rare, even in the Multiverse, there are very few people who understand Prophecy Magic and can glimpse future destiny paths, but that doesn’t an none exist.
Before this, Chen Yu did not pay much attention to guarding against Prophecy Magic since, when he was weak, he was not powerful enough to guard against being prophesied.
However, after he beca a Demigod, the divinity of a Demigod was enough to ensure that those weaker than him could not predict his fate.
Yet this ti, Chen Yu found himself prophesied because what Cooper predicted was not Chen Yu’s fate, but his own.
It’s like seeing a beautiful lady on the street. If you stare directly at her, she will definitely notice, but if you just glance with the corner of your eye or use a reflection, she might not realize you’re looking at her.
Similarly, if Chen Yu’s fate were being prophesied, the seer’s power would need to be on par with Chen Yu to glimpse his destiny.
Even if they could see it, it would only be bits and pieces of information and would cause severe backlash, just like when Chen Yu once glimpsed Gao Tianyuan and blinded himself.
But if the other party rely observes their own fate, they can indirectly see matters related to Chen Yu.
This is why Cooper could foresee Chen Yu racing at midnight, and they and Becky won his favor by winning the competition.
What prophecy reveals is rely a possibility of fate. In the absence of unforeseen events, this possibility might likely beco reality, yet there’s also a small chance of error.
As for unexpected events altering fate, that’s normal.
For example, if a hero’s birth is prophesied but preemptively protecting the hero causes them to miss their growth path, they won’t beco a hero; a person might commit heinous cris in the future, but soone foresees and prevents their cris; a war is predicted, and preventive asures eliminate its threat early…
Prophecy Magic shows only one possibility of the future. You can choose to prevent and change it or go along with it, but regardless of your choice, the future is not fixed and will change based on your decision.
Therefore, initially, Chen Yu wasn’t too concerned about these matters. On one hand, his divinity ant seers found it hard to predict his destiny, and on the other, he was aware of the uncertainty in prophecies.
He felt that even if soone could glimpse his fate, it might not necessarily be an unavoidable future.
But this incident was a wake-up call for Chen Yu. He realized he should perhaps take precautions against such matters to prevent similar incidents.
Necromancers are naturally very attentive to defenses against prophecy spells. Had Chen Yu encountered soone adept in Prophecy Magic on Earth earlier, he might not have relaxed his guard in this regard.
It was not too late to nd. After browsing through the “Multiverse Universal Necromancy Spell Compendium,” Chen Yu equipped himself with a full set of Defensive Spells.
These included Defensive Spells against insights into his past, present, and future through Prophecy Magic, as well as spells to veil his various causal relationships throughout the tiline, and defenses against various Curses and instant-death spells…
Once various spells were anchored on him, Chen Yu finally had the proper defense system of a Demigod Level Necromancer.
While preparing this for himself, Chen Yu naturally did not forget Jounouchi Hiromi.
However, Chen Yu did not make Jounouchi Hiromi cast a full set of Defensive Spells on herself. Instead, he accelerated the renovation and enhancent of the Demigod Armor to provide Jounouchi Hiromi with a comprehensive and well-functioning Armor, offering her the most complete protection.
To achieve this, Chen Yu was unhesitant to modify the nearly completed Tear of Mani Enchantnt, adding another Enchantnt Array to it, increasing its defensive capabilities even further. Not only could it defend against direct assaults, but it also shielded against indirect or side influences like curses and prophecies.
However, adding a Defensive Magic Array obviously increased the Armor’s defensive ability, but it also substantially increased Chen Yu’s workload.
After all, enhancing an Armor is not like drawing on paper. Beyond considering the Armor’s capacity to bear two Enchantnt Arrays, Chen Yu also needed to coordinate the two Arrays to co-exist without interfering with each other’s function.
This was no easy task. Even with the Mage Tower’s Tower Spirit assisting with calculations, the volu of calculation was enormous, and it took Chen Yu several days, even employing Divine Arts, to sort out all the calculations.
Despite just completing the calculation for two Magic Arrays consuming a massive amount of Chen Yu’s energy and effort, the subsequent enhancent process was exceptionally tedious and challenging. Still, for his wife and unborn child, Chen Yu painstakingly crafted the Armor and ticulously checked every detail, fearing any slightest mistake.
Jounouchi Hiromi, seeing Chen Yu’s hard work, was naturally touched and beca increasingly fond of the Armor.
However, alongside her fondness, Jounouchi Hiromi was considering what gift to give Chen Yu in return.
After all, even as a couple, it’s unreasonable for one side only to give while the other keeps receiving.
In Japanese traditional belief, when a husband earns a living outside, the wife should maintain the household to relieve the husband of worries, jointly sustaining the family.
Even as more won enter the workforce in modern society, breaking free from traditional family models, the notion that marriage and family are maintained through mutual effort remains unchanged.
Jounouchi Hiromi also held this belief. Therefore, seeing Chen Yu spend so much thought on making her Armour, she wanted to give Chen Yu a gift in return to express her love.
Thinking this way, Jounouchi Hiromi didn’t imdiately know what to gift Chen Yu.
She had already given herself to him, and they were expecting a child; besides, Chen Yu didn’t have many hobbies. What should she gift him?
As Jounouchi Hiromi was pondering, she recalled Chen Yu racing that day, perhaps a car would be a good gift?
