"At first I thought Reina had only five sisters. It was only after returning to Kyushu that I learned you were one of them."

After saying that, Chika Tachibana sat quietly, waiting for Nakano Yuu's reply.

Yu Nakano was completely confused. He had no recollection of Rena ever mentioning her engagement with Marika Tachibana to him. But... it didn't look like Marika Tachibana was lying.

"I accept the engagement, but I have a question. Why are you so anxious to get me married to Wanlihua, Aunt Ju?"

Sighing, Nakano Yu looked at Chika Tachibana. He would not suffer any loss in this engagement, and Chika Tachibana was also very happy with the engagement, so he had no reason to refuse.

However, Nakano Yu was curious about why Chika Tachibana was so anxious for him to marry her, and Chika Tachibana had not yet answered him what the one year meant.

"...Wanlihua's health is deteriorating. According to the report from the hospital, she may only have three years left... During these three years, I need Wanlihua to give birth to the future heir of the Tachibana family."

After a moment's silence, Chika Tachibana sighed and told all the news she had learned a few days ago, as well as why she was so anxious for Nakano Yu and Marika Tachibana to be together.

"What?! Chika, what are you talking about?!"

Upon hearing this, Ju Yan's face was filled with shock and disbelief. His beloved daughter only had three years left?!

No, it's impossible! It must have been a misdiagnosis by those quack doctors from abroad! Absolutely impossible!

He hadn't spent the past decade or so with his daughter, so how could it be possible that only the last three years were left?!

At this time, Ju Yan looked like a madman. He stretched out his hand to grab Ju Chihua's shoulder and ask her what was going on, but his hand stopped as soon as it stretched out.

He knew that his wife was in poor health, and he was worried that this would hurt Chika Tachibana.

But... after all these years, he'd entrusted Tachibana Marika to Chika's care, and now Chika suddenly told him that Marika still had three years to live. And he's still Marika's father! How could he possibly accept this?!

"I...I only learned the news the night before yesterday, and then I rushed back to Tokyo."

Chika Ju looked at Iwa Ju and didn't know what to say for a moment. Iwa Ju was actually married into the Ju family. Iwa Ju had taken great care of her over the years, but this was the first time he spoke to her in such a tone.

Chika Tachibana also knew that she was wrong in this matter, but... she didn't want to do it either. Chika Tachibana knew that her body could not last for a few more years. She was afraid that five years after Wanlihua, she would also leave with Wanlihua.

Chika Tachibana is very open-minded. She and Wanlihua's frailty is inherited from the Tachibana family. Chika Tachibana is even weaker than Wanlihua. She almost became a stillbirth at birth. Sometimes Chika Tachibana thinks, "It's clearly a road to death, why is it called life?"

What's the meaning of her living?

This question was answered when she was ten years old, which was to inherit the position of the head of the Tachibana family and continue the Tachibana family.

And now, this answer also applies to Tachibana Wanlihua. She lives to inherit the position of head of the Tachibana family, even if it is only for a few days.

"...I understand, but if your plan is to have Marika inherit the Tachibana family, then I refuse, and Marika will be fine."

After a long silence, Nakano Yu stood up, looked up at Wanlihua who was still busy, and said.

The kitchen was not far from the living room, and Chika Tachibana did not deliberately lower her voice. She was probably afraid that Wanlihua had already known about this matter. Even so, she chose not to tell him?

With his eyelids slightly lowered, Nakano Yu clenched his fists. He wanted to kill God!

The God of Life, the God of Medicine, no matter which one, as long as he can solve Wanlihua’s current situation.

"Master You, even the hospital can only treat Wanlihua and my illness and alleviate the pain, but cannot cure it."

Seeing that Nakano Yu was obviously going to refuse, Chika Tachibana hurried to persuade him. She was very worried that if Nakano Yu did not agree, Chika Tachibana would not be able to give birth to a future heir, which would lead to the decline of the Tachibana family.

If the Jiuzhou Ju family did not have their lineage as the head of the family, the side branches would have fallen apart long ago. No one wants to stay in a family that is burdened with a curse. As long as the main family fails to continue, the curse will fall on the side branches.

"Kasan? What are you guys talking about? Come and have some tea. Dosan hid the tea so well, I almost couldn't find it."

Just when Chika Tachibana wanted to beg Nakano Yu again, Marika Tachibana came over with a smile on her face, holding tea. After placing the tea next to Nakano Yu's hand, Marika Tachibana sat down beside the boy intimately, holding his arm.

"Hey, Yuu-chan, have some tea! I've been studying tea art for the past few years!"

Looking at the boy beside her, Tachibana Marika urged him expectantly.

But the more Tachibana Marika looked like this, the more uncomfortable Nakano Yu felt.

There are now two ways to solve the problem of Tachibana Wanlihua. The first is to kill the God of Disobedience and gain the ability to heal Wanlihua's body. The second is to hope that the system will give the ability to heal Wanlihua when the ability is refreshed in a few days.

Now he still has one chance to choose the power himself. If it really appears, he will be able to obtain that power at the first time.

But relying on the system is a bit too dependent on luck. Nakano Yu doesn't think the system will be so lucky, so Nakano Yu plans to kill the god himself!

He now possesses the [Eye of Life] in his power. As long as he is confused and doubtful, the [Eye of Life] will give him the answer. This power is equivalent to a low-end version of [Omniscience and Omnipotence].

If he uses the [Eye of Life] to find the answer on how to summon the [God of Disobedience], or the method to save Wanlihua, the [Eye of Life] may not solve the problem directly like [Omniscience], but it will definitely point him in the direction!

"Thank you, Wanlihua."

Coming back to his senses, Nakano Yu gripped the handle of the teacup and took a sip.

When Wanlihua came to the living room, Chika Tachibana and Iwa Tachibana stopped talking. Iwa Tachibana was worried that Wanlihua Tachibana didn't know about this and it would be a blow to her.

Chika Tachibana was observing the relationship between Marika Tachibana and Yuu Nakano, and seeing how close they were, she realized that her chances might not be affected, so she stopped trying to persuade them.

Sometimes it is better to go with the flow than to do something on purpose. Now she can only believe that Tachibana Wanlihua understands the importance of the continuation of the Tachibana family.

Thinking of this, Chika Tachibana sat up straight, took a sip of tea and frowned slightly. She was about to scold Wanlihua, but remembered that Nakano Yu was here, so she had to put the teacup on the table and didn't taste it.

After having dinner at the Tachibana family, Nakano Yu said goodbye and left, but before he left, Tachibana Chika received a call, so she hurriedly explained that something had happened at the Tachibana family and left without waiting to finish her meal.

Although Tachibana Marika seemed much more relaxed on the surface, Nakano Yuu knew that Marika was also looking forward to having dinner with his family, but...

But now is not the time to dwell on this matter. The most important thing right now is to find out how to solve the problem of Wanlihua as soon as possible.

After returning home, he chatted with the five sisters for a while. Since they had already had dinner, Nakano Yu took a shower and returned to the bedroom.

Sitting on the bed, Nakano Yu's purple jade eyes were gradually invaded by silver light.

"I want to know how to solve the problem with Tachibana Marika."

As he thought about it, the boy's eyes suddenly glowed with silver light, and then a sharp pain came from his eyeballs. Along with the severe pain, Nakano Yuu also knew three ways to solve the Wanlihua problem:

....

Chapter 129: Method of Summoning the Disobedient God, [Disobedient Asclepius]

[1. Kill [Asclepius the Disobedient] and seize his power as the god of medicine - [Chepo]. Use a sharp [scalpel] to remove anything harmful to the body, even matter, energy, phenomena, injuries, curses, and concepts.]

[2. Kill the [Unyielding Phoenix] and seize its immortal power - [Nirvana in Fire]. Use [Flame] to reshape your body. You can use the resurrection ability once a day. It can be activated forcibly, but it will cause irreversible damage to the body.]

3. Drinking the holy water from the artifact [Holy Grail of the Evening Banquet] can dispel all physical discomfort, and the discomfort will not reappear. The [Holy Grail of the Evening Banquet] also has the holy power to resurrect the dead.

Thinking back to the answer given by [The Eye of Life], Nakano Yuu frowned. Nakano Yuu had never considered being the third one to obtain [The Holy Grail of the Evening Banquet].

It is so difficult to obtain the artifact, and one also has to find the [Holy Grail of the Supper], which is the wine vessel used by the Son of God Jesus and the eleven disciples at the last supper.

[The Eye of Life] not only gave the answer, but also told Nakano Yuu how to obtain these powers and artifacts.

The first two require Nakano Yu to collect tokens from the corresponding gods and summon the gods at the cost of 10,000 human souls.

As for the [Holy Grail of the Evening Banquet], Nakano Yuu has to enter the immortal realm where the gods reside to steal the Holy Grail of [Jesus of the Disobedient].

Compared to the first two methods of killing disobedient gods, the [Holy Grail of the Evening Banquet] can be said to be the most difficult to obtain. After all, Yu Nakano is currently unable to enter the realm of gods.

"Collecting tokens from the gods, and sacrificing ten thousand human lives?"

Thinking about the method of summoning the disobedient god, Nakano Yu frowned. He remembered that Marquis Vauban seemed to have a method of summoning the disobedient god as well, but Marquis Vauban had to sacrifice a [witch] to summon the disobedient god. In comparison, his price of ten thousand human souls was much simpler.

After all, [Witches] are not everywhere, but ten thousand human souls can be found at any time.

Another issue is the token of deity.

According to the answer of [Eye of Life], summoning [Asclepius the Disobedient] requires collecting three tokens containing his divinity, namely [Staff of Asclepius], [Bowl of Asoke], and [Lucky Snake Emblem].

These three tokens are all over Greece. Nakano Yu has just had the Moon God teleport to Greece through [Moon Sovereignty] to collect the three tokens. It will probably not take long to find them.

The two tokens of the [Disobedient Phoenix] are a bit difficult to find.

The first one, [Eyes of the Phoenix], is deep in the sun, and the second one, [Feather of the Bird], is simple. He needs to pluck a feather from a phoenix, but the problem now is that he can't find the phoenix.

Therefore, for now, Nakano Yu can only let the Moon God collect the three tokens to summon [Asclepius the Disobedient].

"I hope I can gain something."

Nakano Yu sighed, his tone full of anticipation. The [Eyes of Life] gave the approximate range of the three tokens, so he could only rely on the Moon God to find them. Although those guys didn't seem very smart, such a simple thing as finding something shouldn't be a problem.

Well, I guess so.

Shaking his head, Nakano Yu stopped thinking about these things. He turned his head to look at the full moon outside the window, then lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

"Huff~Huff~"

In the dark night, a man in a vest was running frantically, looking behind him as if something terrifying was chasing him.

But there was obviously nothing behind the man, only extinguished street lights and the deep darkness.

"Clap."

Suddenly, the man seemed to step on something and stopped suddenly.

He looked at his dirty black leather shoes with a face full of fear.

The man slowly lifted his foot, only to see that the sole of his expensive leather shoe was covered with a sticky white substance that looked like... spider silk!

Without caring about anything else, the man pulled his feet hard, but no matter how hard he tried, the sticky substance similar to spider silk became longer and longer, but it could not be torn apart.

"Damn it! Bageyalu!"

Seeing this, the man panicked. He held onto the electric pole and shook his feet hard, trying to get rid of the sticky substance, but the sticky substance remained unmoved.

After cursing, the man simply took off his shoes, threw them aside, and ran away quickly.

But just as the man left, a huge figure flashed by under the streetlight. It looked like a human, but... it seemed to have the body of a spider...

"what!!!"

A moment later, a scream erupted under the night sky, but soon died down.

On a silent night, the full moon hung high in the sky, its faint light casting a shadow on the earth and also on the pool of blood.

"So, that man was eaten by the Spider Woman in the end?"

"I don't know. I just heard this story from someone else. But oh, Spider-Woman is real!"

In the classroom, several girls who like horror stories gathered together to tell ghost stories. Just now, a girl told an urban legend called "Spider Woman".

"Why are you so sure?"

As soon as the female classmate finished speaking with certainty, the short-haired girl sitting behind her holding a book asked curiously.

"Because I have seen it! Do you know that someone died recently in Ukiyoe Goban Street?"

Seeing that she was being questioned, the female classmate crossed her arms and spoke with an inexplicable sense of pride in her tone.

"I know this. It was said to be a murder of passion. A man was a mistress, and his wife found him and hacked him to death."

After the female classmate asked the question, another blonde girl raised her hand and responded.

But after she finished speaking, the female classmate who told the ghost story shook her head, with a flash of fear and excitement in her eyes, and said:

"Actually, the scene I was at wasn't a murder of passion. It was clearly the result of a beast's mauling. The blood and flesh were a mess. There was also a particularly large spider web at the scene, almost... the size of three people!"

As she spoke, the female classmate gestured with her hands and almost slapped her hand on the short-haired girl's face.

"How is it possible? How can a spider weave such a big web?"

The short-haired girl said, a little unhappy.

"Really? I lied to you, you're a puppy!"

"Anyway, I don't believe it. Spider-Woman and the whole day thing are just made up."

"Be careful, Spider-Woman will come looking for you tonight~"

"Ugh~ disgusting!"

In the corner of the classroom, Nakano Yuu turned his gaze away from the three female classmates who were chatting about Spider Girl.

"Yuu-chan is interested in that Spider-Woman?"

"Yu-kun, is that Spider-Woman real?"

After listening to the Spider Woman's urban legend, Tachibana Marika and Katsura Kotonoha asked one after another.

This morning, Yu Nakano introduced Marika Tachibana to Kotonoha Katsura, and he did not hide the fact that he and Kotonoha Katsura were already engaged. However, what surprised Yu Nakano was that Marika Tachibana actually knew about this and didn't mind.

I'm afraid....Marihua Tachibana's behavior may have something to do with her health.

"This is true. Uncle Ju sent me the information about the man who was killed. He hopes I can help solve this matter. Didn't he tell Wanlihua?"

Nakano Yu nodded, acknowledging the existence of the "Spider Girl". Then, he looked at Tachibana Marika with a little surprise and asked.
