Since Inomata Naoki’s confession went successfully, naturally, he wanted to spend some alone time with Tokairin Yūko, and Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi also wouldn’t be so oblivious as to stick around and be third wheels.
After parting ways with Inomata Naoki and Tokairin Yūko, the couple took a ride home.
Sitting in the car, Hiromi Jounouchi turned to Yu Chen and asked, “Husband, what have you been busy with lately?”
“Hmm?
Why do you ask that?
I’ve never kept anything from you.
Haven’t I been busy with summoning Ship-girls recently?” Yu Chen found Hiromi Jounouchi’s question odd, but he answered anyway, “As for the results of the summons, you’ve seen them yourself—the Ship-girls are the fruits of my recent labors.”
“I’ve certainly seen the Ship-girls, but I’ve seen more than just the ones you summoned.
I’ve also seen those war machines and armies you’re preparing!” Hiromi Jounouchi’s expression was slightly accusatory, but it was more out of concern.
Although she was not a Demigod like Yu Chen, as the Crimson Empress of the Blood School, one of the Eight Great Factions of Necromancy, she recognized all the things Yu Chen had created in the Necromantic Space: the Demigod-level Ship-girls, the mass-produced Expert Level Dark Warriors, and the colossal war machines being built.
These things could easily annihilate a small country on Earth if used in a war.
Hiromi Jounouchi might not comprehend Yu Chen’s intentions, but she knew very well that her husband was not the type to amass such power without a clear purpose.
So, she was eager to find out what exactly he was working on.
“Husband, what exactly are you doing?
If you tell me, and there’s any way I can help, I’d like to be of assistance!” Hiromi Jounouchi looked earnestly at Yu Chen, hoping her husband would open up and share his true intentions.
Faced with Hiromi Jounouchi’s earnest look, Yu Chen felt somewhat troubled.
He had not intended to involve his wife, but he considered the likelihood that if a god war were to truly break out, Hiromi Jounouchi, as his wife, would inevitably be at his side, confronting the enemy together.
Moreover, once a god war actually erupted, all of this would come to light before Hiromi anyway, so keeping it from her would be meaningless.
With this in mind, Yu Chen frankly said to Hiromi Jounouchi, “I’m taking precautions.
What I am doing could potentially trigger a god war.” fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
“A god war?
Are you worried about Inomata-kun and Minami’s situation?” Hiromi Jounouchi realized.
She was also aware of the issue and thought Yu Chen was concerned about the consequences of Inomata Naoki and Minami’s love affair, “But hasn’t Inomata-kun already confessed to Doctor Tokairin today?
What’s there to worry about anymore?”
“It’s not about what I’m worried about, it’s about what I have to do.” Yu Chen looked at his wife.
Since the car was prepared by the Mingyue Society and the driver was a Dark Warrior, he didn’t hide anything and directly revealed all his plans to his wife, “I and the Inari God are planning to advance the relationship between Naoki and Minami and use the influence of their love to shake the world’s rules.”
“What?
Why would you do that?
Could it be for…” Although Hiromi Jounouchi followed the path of a knight, she was also part of the Necromancers, and upon hearing Yu Chen, she made a quick connection and guessed his purpose.
Yu Chen nodded, then continued in a grave tone, “To achieve Divine Enthronement, aside from broadly accumulating the Power of Faith to ignite the Divine Flame, the most crucial thing is the condensation of Divinity.
As for the Power of Faith, you and I are both renowned medical scholars, and the faith we’ve garnered from our research is already sufficient.
However, the Divinity that such faith can eventually crystallize into is merely that of a god of healing, and it remains bound by that faith.
Hiromi, do you truly wish to merely be an ordinary deity on Earth, then spend thousands or tens of thousands of years slowly accumulating power before breaking free from this world’s constraints?”
Yu Chen’s words rendered Hiromi Jounouchi speechless.
If they hadn’t inherited knowledge from the Necromancer and were unaware of the relationship between deities and the world, it would’ve been fine to be deities within a single world, gradually building up faith.
That could have been an acceptable choice.
However, for Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi, who had come to understand the vastness of the Multiverse, nesting in a ‘tiny’ world held little meaning.
After all, neither Yu Chen nor Hiromi Jounouchi were the type to be content with confinement to a corner.
“So, you plan to use the impact of the situation between Inomata-kun and Minami, shatter the boundary between life and death, destabilize the world’s rules, and then plunder them in order to forge Ancient Divinity?” Since Hiromi Jounouchi already knew what Yu Chen was doing, she naturally guessed his motive.
Yu affirmed Hiromi Jounouchi’s conjecture with a nod: “Doing it alone is not impossible, but having assistance certainly makes it better.
Moreover, with the Inari God’s involvement, they can also shield me from enemies that may come from the side of the deities.”
Listening to Yu Chen discuss these matters, Hiromi Jounouchi finally came to understand what Yu Chen was truly up to, and what his plan entailed.
With this understanding, Hiromi Jounouchi began to consider how she might assist Yu Chen to better execute his plan.
Even though Yu Chen’s plan, once set into motion, might bring a heavy disaster upon this world, Jounouchi Hiromi found herself without a way to persuade him to stop.
After reaching their level of power, seeking Divine Enthronement was the only avenue for further self-improvement.
What’s more, with the Inari God involved in this matter, as someone who had seen the true form of the Inari God, Hiromi Jounouchi knew all too well that neither she nor Yu Chen had the capacity to prevent a genuine deity.
“The Blood School also has some powerful methods for creating Undead Servants.
With Divine Flesh, I can create forces equivalent to Demigod Level, which should be able to aid you, my husband,” Hiromi Jounouchi recalled the potent methods of creating Undead Servants inscribed in the ‘Crimson Hymn,’ filtering those that could assist Yu Chen.
“Demigod Level forces are sufficient after having seven Ship-girls.
If we need more, summoning a few more Ship-girls would suffice.
The real issue is the lower-end forces.” Upon hearing Hiromi Jounouchi’s offer to help, Yu Chen pondered for a moment then spoke, “I remember the Blood School should be able to forge Blood Qi Armor.
Hiromi, could you help me produce a batch of Blood Qi Armor?”
“Blood Qi Armor?” Hiromi Jounouchi momentarily paused when Yu Chen mentioned it but quickly nodded in agreement.
