Chapter 145: The gods shed tears! Fate is broken by life itself!

~3 min read 580 words

Kitsune Saiguu lowered her head and wiped away her tears.

She knew she had lost her composure.

After steadying her breathing, she asked, "What fate?"

Gu Chen glanced at her and said heavily, "An endless disaster. The land will be swallowed by a black torrent, and countless people will lose their homes and families because of it..."

"So..."

Kitsune Saiguu was somewhat horrified and said in disbelief, "So you mean, everything you are doing now is just preparation to deal with fate?"

"Naturally."

Gu Chen lowered his eyes.

"That's good then." Kitsune Saiguu let out a sigh of relief, a smile returning to her face as she said, "I was worried for that fool for nothing. But the disaster you spoke of..."

After imagining it for a moment, Kitsune Saiguu trembled before asking, "Can it be resolved?"

"Rest assured." Gu Chen nodded. He looked up at the sky for a moment before saying slowly, "I cannot stop the outbreak of all this, but what I can do for the countless people of Inazuma is to minimize the impact of these disasters..."

"... At least to a level that can be barely accepted on a national scale."

"Unavoidable... minimizing the impact... that is already a very good result." Kitsune Saiguu sighed.

Since it was something unavoidable, it had to be dealt with.

And if it could be barely accepted on a national level, it proved it hadn't reached the point of shattering the nation's foundations.

"Then have you finished it now?" Kitsune Saiguu asked with a hint of expectation.

"No."

Gu Chen shook his head and said, "This matter is very important. Go back and take a message to her; once this is finished, I will return immediately."

Kitsune Saiguu opened her mouth.

She really wanted to say, can't you even spare the time to go back and take a look?

But thinking of the countless commoners, Kitsune Saiguu ultimately did not say it out loud.

The two parted ways there.

【Venti】: It can be confirmed, but can he really reduce the losses all by himself? (Paimon: Surprised)

【Tighnari】: A disaster from hundreds of years ago? I've seen quite a few descriptions of it in books, but they were all too vague. In any case, that catastrophe was terrifying. However, it is a good thing that Mr. Gu Chen was able to foresee it. At least the Inazuma of that spacetime will have lower losses than the current world, right?

【Raiden Ei】: I wronged him. (I'm sorry)

【Yae Miko】: Sigh...

That catastrophe is still in Yae Miko's mind to this day.

Kitsune Saiguu also fell in that catastrophe, along with the miserable end of Mikoshi Chiyo...

The more Yae Miko thought about it, the sadder she became.

"Gu Chen, oh Gu Chen. My god, my friends, I leave them to you, this brother-in-law..." Yae Miko whispered.

"Ah, is that so?"

Raiden Makoto was suddenly enlightened, then asked, "Did he say what I need to do?"

Looking at her haggard face regaining its luster, Kitsune Saiguu shook her head and said, "He didn't say. But for a person like him, if he didn't say, he must have his own plans. You don't need to worry about these things." ===== CHAPTER 147 =====

Watching her haggard face regain its luster, Kitsune Saiguu shook her head and said, "He didn't say, but for a person like him, not saying anything likely means he has his own plans. You don't need to

worry about these things."
