Chapter 961: Chapter 954: What Cos Next
When Chen Yu and Hiromi Jounouchi were visiting the laboratory, Inomata Naoki and Minami also arrived at the hotel that Chen Yu had booked for them, on a boat specially arranged for their transport.
Due to the limited size of the islands, each island in the Maldives hosts only one hotel. Therefore, the island typically has only a few villa-style guestrooms and does not accommodate too many guests, ensuring both privacy and scenic beauty to a great extent.
The Maldives is renowned as paradise, and its natural environnt is undoubtedly exceptional.
The azure sky dotted with white clouds, the pristine white beaches, and the light blue shallows reflect the green palm trees on the island, creating a scenery that can truly be called paradise.
Chen Yu had reserved for them a seven-star hotel, where the environnt, scenery, and service were all top-notch. So, as Inomata Naoki and Minami strolled barefoot on the beach, it felt as if they were the only ones there.
The white sand was soft and delicate, and walking barefoot on it was completely comfortable. The waves gently lapping the shore rolled up tiny foam waves that brushed over their feet, bringing a touch of coolness.
Walking together on the beach, Inomata Naoki and Minami felt much more relaxed now because Naoki had confided everything he knew to Minami.
Of course, although he said everything, what Inomata Naoki knew was only the bits that Chen Yu had told him about their shared experiences over three lifetis in a dream. He had no knowledge of deeper matters.
As for Minami, although she knew slightly more than Inomata Naoki, her essence was simply that of a dead person summoned back by Chen Yu, unfamiliar with anything beyond what she witnessed through the spell used by Chen Yu and Hiromi when they summoned her.
Thus, when Naoki said that the inexplicable emotions between them stemd from their shared experiences over three lifetis in a dream at Inari Taisha, Minami readily accepted this explanation without suspecting any hidden anings.
For Minami, learning that her feelings towards Naoki were rooted in their three lifetis together in a dream brought about a sense of relief.
Minami knew she was a deceased being and could not fall in love with a living person. This realization was a source of agony when she learned of the Red String of Fate that tied her to Naoki.
The deep feelings that developed towards Naoki following the dream experience in Kyoto, and the inexplicable connection between them, were matters of concern, fear, and confusion for Minami.
She was worried that by falling for Naoki, she would be breaching the agreent with Yu Chen and his wife, risking punishnt from them, which could include dissolving the spell sustaining her form and sending her to Reincarnation.
Now aware that her feelings for Naoki were due to their three lifetis together in a dream, Minami felt at ease.
Compared to baseless love, the reason of shared dream experiences allowing her to accumulate emotions for Naoki was clearly more acceptable to Minami, providing her with a reasoning that prevented further developnts between them.
After all, having already been together for three lifetis, there wasn’t a need to risk breaking taboos to be together again.
Thus, Minami faced Naoki with ease now, free of previous burdens. Though they had gotten along well after the dream at Inari Taisha, only now did she truly cease to worry about the Red String of Fate that existed between them.
Likewise, Naoki felt much relieved after confiding in Minami. The awkwardness arising from his unexplained feelings for Minami and their three lifetis together in a dream vanished with his disclosure, allowing him to face Minami normally.
The burdenless interaction between the two was particularly harmonious at the mont, and the rapport from their shared three lifetis in a dream made them appear inseparable, like long-ti confidants or an old married couple.
Feeling that the other t their expectations for a partner completely, Minami couldn’t help but wonder how lovely it would be to recall mories of their three lifetis together in a dream.
What kind of happiness is shared across three lifetis?
——————————————————
“Looks like things are progressing well between Naoki and Minami!” Chen Yu looked up at the sky, where the invisible Network of Rules once again erged from the depths of the world. Compared to the manifested rules seen at the previous ritual, this ti he saw the true form of the world’s rules.
The previous eting between Minami and Naoki also once caused the Network of Rules to appear, though it only revealed the shallowest rules of the world then. This ti, deeper rules within the Network of Rules surfaced from the world’s depths.
Hiromi Jounouchi also looked up at the sky. The massive net of countless intertwined rules covered the entire sky, stretched across the earth, and perated the ocean. Everything her gaze landed upon was interconnected by the Network of Rules, with every facet of existence under this omnipresent set of rules.
This sight filled Hiromi with awe and amazent, as it was her first ti witnessing the manifestation of world rules firsthand.
She couldn’t help but ask Chen Yu, “Hubby, is this caused by Minami and Mr. Zhishu? It’s just too incredible. Can the love of two individuals impact the entire world like this?”
“Though incredible, in so sense, their union of one living and one ghost indeed breaks the boundary of life and death.” Chen Yu had long ceased pondering over this question, but he still offered an explanation: “The living and the deceased falling in love is a manifestation of love transcending life and death, which indeed breaches the boundary of life and death. And as you know, Hibiki, the result of this breach is the current situation. While my actions did encourage this, it’s primarily due to the fate between them.”
“Red String of Fate? It all feels so exaggerated.” Hiromi Jounouchi shook her head, having no particular thoughts about the matter, she rely asked Chen Yu, “So what cos next? When will you begin the Deification Ritual, hubby?”
