21st Century Necromancer

When Chen Yu and his wife came to Russia, they crossed the entire Great Siberian Forest on a special train, but they didn't enjoy such luxury on their way back to Japan, or rather, Chen Yu felt there was no need to waste time like this.

They crossed Siberia to experience the Trans-Siberian Railway and the beauty of the Siberian forest, and since they had already enjoyed it on the way there, there was no need to spend so much time on the way back.

So after Chen Yu and his wife packed their luggage, they simply crossed through the Necromantic Space and returned to their home in Japan.

After placing the luggage and putting the souvenirs on the display shelf, Jounouchi Hiromi looked at her home and couldn't help frowning, saying to Chen Yu, "It feels so strange! To just cross through the Necromantic Space and be home, it doesn't feel like a trip at all."

Hearing these words from Jounouchi Hiromi, Chen Yu laughed and walked behind her to hug her.

"Why, Hiromi, do you feel you need the full journey, the weariness and hustle, to feel like you've traveled?" Chen Yu rested his chin on Jounouchi Hiromi's shoulder and asked his wife.

"Not exactly; it's just weird to come straight home after being out. It feels like something's missing." Jounouchi Hiromi shook her head, expressing her feelings: "It just feels like something's missing when coming back like this."

Chen Yu turned Jounouchi Hiromi around to face him, pressed his forehead against hers, and smiled, saying, "Is it a lack of sense of ceremony? Not having the process of returning home makes you feel like you haven't come home, or not having the real feeling of being home."

Hearing Chen Yu say this, Jounouchi Hiromi couldn't help but nod. She did have a sense that she hadn't truly returned home.

Especially as they were just in the European part of Russia, and now they had instantly crossed over half the globe to return to Japan, neighboring Russia's Far East, with a time difference of over ten hours. This disparity made it hard for her to feel that the trip had ended, and that she had returned home from Russia.noveldrama

Chen Yu didn't know how to comfort Jounouchi Hiromi's gloominess, so he said to her, "Why don't you go out to get a beauty treatment, do some shopping to relax?"

"Oh, darling, what are you saying!" Jounouchi Hiromi burst out laughing, rejecting Chen Yu's proposal with a laugh.

Although these suggestions from Chen Yu were quite normal for Japanese housewives, due to her career, Jounouchi Hiromi hadn't had much time to go to beauty salons before.

As for shopping, she'd done plenty of it, but rather than that, Jounouchi Hiromi preferred to enjoy gourmet food.

Thinking about this, Jounouchi Hiromi couldn't help suggesting to Chen Yu, "Darling, why don't we go out for dinner tonight? Ever since we had Yixi, we haven't gone out to eat together in a long time."

"Seems so! Since Little Yixi came along, Hiromi, you've spent all your time on this little girl, so it's been a long time since you went out to eat with me." Chen Yu thought the suggestion was quite good, so he nodded in agreement.

However, he still had a concern, which was their daughter.

"But if we go out tonight, should we bring Little Yixi? We can't just leave her at home while we go out to eat, right? That would be too pitiful for our daughter." As a doting daddy, Chen Yu certainly couldn't allow his daughter to suffer such a grievance, even if she might not feel anything about it.

Jounouchi Hiromi seemed to feel that it wouldn't be good for her daughter either, so after some thought, she said, "Then why don't we take Yixi with us? But if we take this little girl, she can only drink milk, right?"

"Could you bear to leave her at home?" Chen Yu looked straight into Jounouchi Hiromi's eyes and asked the mother of his daughter.

Jounouchi Hiromi raised her hands in surrender. She certainly couldn't bear to leave their daughter at home like this, even knowing that Chen Yu would have Belfast take care of her, and there would be four little girls from the 6th Destroyer Squadron to keep Little Yixi company still meant the same.

When Chen Yu's substitute returned from work, and Chen Yu retracted this substitute into Necromantic Space, he then changed into a different set of clothes and, with Jounouchi Hiromi who had freshened up, they went out with their daughter.

Driving the sports car Jounouchi Hiromi had given him, looking at his wife in the passenger seat and his daughter in the child safety seat in the back, Chen Yu felt that if he were just an ordinary person, this life should be quite fulfilling.

With a successful career and a happy family, it seemed they were just a son short of having a complete family. But having only one daughter was also nice; there was no need to insist on having two, and generally, little boys tend to be mischievous. Even if it's his own son, Chen Yu didn't want to raise a troublesome child.

Thinking about children, Chen Yu suddenly said to Jounouchi Hiromi, "Honey, let's buy a new house."

"Why are you suddenly thinking of buying a house?" Jounouchi Hiromi looked at Chen Yu in surprise.

For them, who have an entire castle and three islands in the Necromantic Space, a house seemed unnecessary.

But Chen Yu's explanation made her seriously consider the matter: "Because of Yixi, the apartment we currently rent is just for our convenience for work and life. We didn't consider what to do once we had children. Now that we have Yixi, we need to think about her future schooling, right? And the little girl should have her own room, shouldn't she?"

"Then honey, what kind of house do you think we should buy?" Jounouchi Hiromi looked at Chen Yu, appearing particularly serious about this matter: "Chiyoda Ward and Bunkyō Ward both have excellent educational resources. Honey, where do you think it's more suitable for us to move?"

Even though both are Demigods, when it comes to their daughter, they're no different from ordinary parents, only wanting to give their child the best of everything.

"Bunkyō Ward seems a bit more suitable, Chiyoda Ward, though good, is a bit of a wealthy area." Chen Yu thought aloud while driving: "But it's hard to say, let's arrange to meet with a real estate agent and decide after looking at some houses."

"Sounds good, let's choose a bigger, more comfortable house." Jounouchi Hiromi nodded in agreement.

"That's for sure. How about we buy a villa?" Chen Yu seemed to have a sudden burst of inspiration, but it wasn't out of the question. For both him and Jounouchi Hiromi, buying a villa was really no problem at all.

"A standalone house should be enough, wouldn't a villa be too much wasted space?" Jounouchi Hiromi seemed to feel there was no need for such waste.

Regarding the house, Chen Yu was still more inclined towards a larger one, persuading Jounouchi Hiromi: "You also need to consider when my parents and mother-in-law come to Tokyo, we can't always have them stay outside, right?"
