21st Century Necromancer

Chapter 950: Chapter 943 Arrangement

Although the matter of divine enthronement could not involve Misumi Mikoto, Chen Yu ultimately transferred his regenerative medicine laboratory to her after consulting her opinion.

The laboratory, which had always been under Chen Yu’s name and researching regenerative medicine topics per his arrangements, was primarily managed by the Mingyue Society most of the time. Chen Yu himself only occasionally oversaw its operations.

The laboratory had successfully completed several projects, including Chen Yu’s earlier research on vegetative-state treatment, making it quite profitable now.

However, with Chen Yu having succeeded in his divine enthronement, he intended to relocate to the small island gifted to him by the Americans to lead a carefree, godlike life. It was evident that he no longer had plans to manage the laboratory in Japan.

Thus, transferring the laboratory’s ownership to Misumi Mikoto was not a troublesome matter for him.

Nonetheless, considering factors like brand credibility, although the laboratory was transferred to Misumi Mikoto’s name, Chen Yu would still maintain a nominal presence there, albeit without any involvement in its management.

As for the future operations of the laboratory, Chen Yu was confident because Misumi Mikoto was also a Necromancer and his disciple. What Chen Yu knew, Misumi Mikoto had learned as well, and what she didn’t know yet, she could always study. Running the laboratory would be no issue for her.

Initially, Chen Yu had planned to bring Misumi Mikoto overseas. After all, she was his personally trained disciple, and he hoped to continue mentoring her further.

But after careful consideration, Misumi Mikoto decided to stay in Japan.

The main reason was not anything else but her adaptation to life in Japan. If it were to a modern city like the United States, it would’ve been more acceptable; but Chen Yu was heading to a secluded overseas island.

At just over thirty years old, she wasn’t yet at a stage to consider retiring, and even if the island featured a world-class research laboratory, she couldn’t see the appeal of living in isolation on an island.

Perhaps she would visit the island to vacation and reunite with Chen Yu’s family in the future when time permits, but the thought of residing there—no, perhaps she’d consider it at seventy or eighty years old.

Misumi Mikoto’s reluctance to go abroad was within Chen Yu’s expectations, so he didn’t force his disciple. He only asked her to visit him frequently whenever she could.

——————————————————

When dealing with Misumi Mikoto, Chen Yu negotiated as she was his disciple. But when it came to the Mingyue Society, the subordinate organization he initially created for convenience, Chen Yu only issued commands.

Currently, due to Chen Yu’s influence, the Mingyue Society had become Japan’s foremost supernatural organization. With Chen Yu, the Demigod leader, at the helm, it held a significant reputation internationally as well. However, in Chen Yu’s eyes, this organization remained just a construct he designed for practicality back then.

Today, Mingyue Society wielded immense influence not only within Japan’s supernatural community but also across the country’s political and business circles.

It might lack the capability to replace a Prime Minister, but if dissatisfaction arose with any Cabinet official, the Mingyue Society’s current strength was sufficient to install someone more agreeable.

Still, none of this mattered in Chen Yu’s eyes.

Back when he was an ordinary Necromancer, he might have found the Society’s might impressive, deeming it a powerful supernatural organization.

But for the Demigod Chen Yu now, he could easily replace the Prime Minister with a single command and gain the backing of both the Imperial Family and the Americans.

The power of mortals no longer held any significance for him.

Nevertheless, this was his faction. So, even as he planned to leave Japan, the organization still needed to continue operating.

The Mingyue Society had grown exponentially since its humble beginnings, when Chen Yu himself, a lone Master Rank, had to hold the fort.

Not only was Chen Yu now a Demigod, but even the once Formal-Rank superhumans like Tsuchimikado Yoshiharu, Kyuuzai Ryousen, and Kojo Mitsuko had advanced to the Legendary Rank. Coupled with Maeda Toshiie, who had long followed Chen Yu’s orders from the Society headquarters, the organization now boasted four Legendary-Rank combatants, ranking it among the top globally.

The various independent superhumans who had initially joined Mingyue Society for its heritage offerings had also seen significant advancements in their abilities.

Many apprentices and Formal-Rank superhumans who had been languishing with incomplete inheritances had now risen to Expert Level. There were over twenty Master Rank combatants too, making the organization genuinely formidable.

But for the current Chen Yu, such manpower hardly caught his eye.

Under his command, mere mortals without Legendary-level combat power or special attributes struggled to even warrant his notice. On top of that, he had more than twenty Demigod-level ship-girls awaiting orders, not to mention divine-level forces like Warspite and Missouri.

As for lower-level cannon fodder? A Necromancer rarely lacked for such resources.

During his earlier, weaker years, Chen Yu had considered leveraging the lower-tier superhumans as cannon fodder.

But now, with his strength skyrocketed, his perspective had grown accordingly. Any of the trained legions within his Necromantic Space could easily crush Mingyue Society’s seemingly robust combat power.

Thus, to Chen Yu, the subordinate force he once cultivated had largely lost its significance.

That said, to Chen Yu, the Mingyue Society was still a valuable asset. Plus, Tsuchimikado Yoshiharu and Kyuuzai Ryousen had remained diligent and reliable, proving themselves efficient in handling trivial matters. He had no intention of abandoning them.

After a brief inspection of the current state of Mingyue Society, Chen Yu informed the three leaders and Maeda Toshiie about his imminent divine enthronement and departure from Japan.

Maeda Toshiie showed no particular reaction. As Chen Yu’s Undead Servant, he remained loyal regardless. Though still at the Legendary rank, his military expertise was indispensable in commanding the several legions within Chen Yu’s Necromantic Space. There was no fear of being discarded.

Kojo Kyoko was even more straightforward. Chen Yu was her master, and wherever Chen Yu went, she would follow loyally without hesitation.

But Tsuchimikado Yoshiharu and Kyuuzai Ryousen gave the matter more thought. After some hesitation, Yoshiharu finally asked Chen Yu, “Master, if you leave Japan after your divine enthronement, how should the Mingyue Society proceed? Should we relocate overseas as well?”

“I’ve already considered that. Today, I’m here precisely to address this matter,” Chen Yu replied, having anticipated this question. He began explaining, “In the future…”
