PDLP Chapter 218 Reunion with Akemi Miyano
Chapter 218 Reunion with Akemi Miyano
After their conversation with Uesugi Koshi ended, the group returned home once again.
However, matters concerning the White King still require some planning.
It's really not worth the huge undertaking of resurrecting the White King just to kill Herzog! Therefore, Li Muyang is prepared to go all out!
He wants the White King's power! He also wants the White King to be completely and utterly destroyed!
Of course, it's not for my own use.
If possible, I'll prepare it for Erii.
It refers only to power, excluding authority and status.
Simply put, it can be described as taking the essence and discarding the dross.
Old Li didn't want Erii to become the mutated monster Yamata no Orochi that the White King mutated.
Of course, this suggestion was made after consulting with Erii, the person in question.
Herzog wants the power of the White King, right? So what's wrong with letting Erii, whom he's tricked for so many years, steal the fruit of success?
Erii was also very interested in this suggestion!
Regarding the risk issue...
"It definitely exists, but I'm definitely going to take the power first. Whether Erii can successfully fuse with it or not, I'll make my move only after I've ensured everything is foolproof." Li Muyang explained to the people who were concerned about Erii. He certainly wouldn't go into battle unprepared!
It's just a matter of making use of the White King, who's already half-dead and better off alive than dead. He's not some mad scientist; he can simply eliminate any hidden factors in his power that might cause mutations! And if it really doesn't work, he can just abandon the plan altogether!
Bai Yuxiu and the others then let Li Muyang go. Although they didn't believe Li Muyang would act recklessly, they thought it best not to create unnecessary trouble.
The reason for this alternative plan is that Li Muyang had taken into account a certain little guy in the shadows!
The protagonist of the Dragon Raja, Lu Mingfei, has a self-proclaimed little devil named Lu Mingze in his soul!
In this guy's script, Erii is a pretty important pawn.
In the original storyline, Lu Mingfei's various misdeeds were indeed enough to raise one's blood pressure, but not enough to make Li Muyang make a special trip for him! After all, the two didn't know each other, and there was still a lot of time before the Dragon Clan storyline began.
Well, Li Muyang has almost turned Japan upside down, but in reality, the official storyline of Dragon Raja hasn't even started yet, and Lu Mingfei is still studying at a school in Dragon Kingdom.
Li Muyang wasn't sure whether Lu Mingze had included Erii in his plans or what his ultimate goal was, especially since this world was still a mixed bag, and who knew if there would be other variables.
Therefore, due to various entanglements and other reasons, since Erii is not particularly willing to go to another world to live permanently with Li Muyang and his group, improving her strength as much as possible is the only way to ensure her safety.
Li Muyang is determined to prevent the situation that happened to the Jiachang sisters from happening again!
Even with the Jade Disc teleportation, Li Muyang might still arrive late; the prerequisite for a last-minute rescue is arriving first! The problem is, Li Muyang also has his own matters to attend to, so he certainly won't be drawing much attention here, and his energy is currently limited!
Just as Li Muyang was planning these things, the long-dormant system issued a new reminder.
Two tasks were triggered.
One task is for Erii, which involves helping her escape her fate of death; the other involves Akemi Miyano, which involves helping her escape this world.
The task reward is simple and straightforward: only Source Points.
(It's definitely not that the author was too lazy to write the task requirements.)
Judging by the time, it's probably about time.
Just then, my phone rang.
"Hey?" Li Muyang chuckled knowingly, hehe... cough cough! Miss, where can you run to? You think you can escape my grasp? ~geigeigei!
"Mr. Li...can we meet?" As expected, the call came from Ms. Miyano Akemi.
"Of course! Just to be on the safe side, I'll come find you. Let's set a time," Li Muyang replied calmly, not wanting to scare the young lady. "The sooner the better, things might change if we delay. Now is fine too! I'm available anytime these days!"
"Let's do it now, I happen to have some time." As soon as Miyano Akemi finished speaking, a portal opened in front of her, and Li Muyang slowly walked over with his phone in hand.
Miss Mingmei was stunned for a moment. She thought that Li Muyang's so-called coming to find her meant walking over, but she didn't expect such a cool way! Spatial teleportation!
"I'm sorry, I've also been being monitored recently, so this is the only way I can avoid their sight," Li Muyang explained with a smile.
"Hiss..." Miyano Akemi gasped, "Who would dare to spy on you now!"
Li Muyang shrugged helplessly: "Don't misunderstand, it wasn't that I was passive, but that I actively let them monitor me."
Miyano Akemi, being sensible, didn't ask further. After a moment of contemplation, she asked, "Sir, does what you mentioned to me before still stand?"
Li Muyang nodded firmly: "Of course! I've been waiting for your reply!"
Akemi Miyano smiled a little shyly. It was the first time she had been valued like this... and she felt quite nervous.
"Sir... I've thought about it for a long time, but I still have some concerns..."
Li Muyang waved his hand dismissively: "You speak!"
I'm not afraid you won't ask questions! I'm afraid you won't be able to ask any questions at all.
Miyano Akemi was even more embarrassed by Li Muyang's enthusiastic attitude. After carefully considering her words, she asked, "First of all, I'm not quite sure why you chose me, sir. After all, my major is psychology, not business... I think with your abilities, you could easily find someone more professional, right?"
Li Muyang smiled upon hearing this: "No, no, no, I just need to find someone with management experience and ability to assist in managing the company, but ability is not the most important factor. The most important thing is trust and confidentiality! I need to find someone I can trust to help me!"
"If I simply need to recruit talent from various professional fields, I can handle it just as well in my own world!"
Afterwards, Li Muyang carefully explained the general situation of his company and the general state of his world, including that his company might involve some national secrets, and that secrecy was the most important thing. Miyano Akemi listened with a look of shock that lingered for a long time.
Does such a world even exist?
I originally thought that my world would be very different from Li Muyang's world... Well, now it sounds like the difference is indeed quite large. At least on the surface, the technology on both sides is basically incomparable.
They practically crushed them over there!
After all, the concept of universal cultivation sounds terrifying!
Li Muyang laughed self-deprecatingly, "I'm afraid Miss Mingmei, if you really go to our side, you will be greatly disappointed, because the power that most people possess is actually only the strength of an ordinary person who has been trained. Moreover, only in the Dragon Kingdom is cultivation practiced by all citizens, but even that is limited to the middle and upper classes of society."
"As for overseas, cultivation resources are still controlled by capital and family power. Ordinary people have little room for advancement and most are just ordinary people."
"Putting everything else aside, the ability you've awakened is already quite effective for most people. That's the main reason I value you. To be honest, don't mind me, before you awakened this mental ability, I was only looking for you on a whim."
Having understood why Li Muyang valued her, Miyano Akemi felt more at ease. At least she didn't have to worry about being tricked into joining a pyramid scheme or something similar after agreeing to the agreement.
And are my own abilities... enough to protect myself?
During this time, Miyano Akemi also secretly tried out her abilities. The bank manager where she was temporarily working often found reasons to scold her, the newcomer. But after trying to use her abilities to change his mind, she had far fewer troubles. The manager treated her with kindness and gentleness, as if she were his own daughter!
This one incident alone has already stirred a sense of panic in Miyano Akemi's heart. After all, she had always been a kind person and would never hurt anyone unless absolutely necessary.
The result was that just a small attempt caused such a dramatic change in someone who originally disliked her... Fearing that something might be exposed, Miyano Akemi suppressed the urge to continue using her ability.
It's not easy to control one's desires while possessing power, especially since she was just an ordinary person who was bullied before. If Miyano Akemi didn't have the identity of the Black Organization, she would definitely have an angelic personality similar to Ran Mouri. And the ability to control one's mind can easily turn one into a demon if one is not careful.
Because of Li Muyang's previous warning, Miyano Akemi didn't dare to try using her abilities on Gin and Vodka, fearing she might expose something.
Then came the matter of her sister.
“That’s not a problem. I guarantee she’ll live.” Li Muyang explained solemnly, “Actually, another reason I chose you is that you’re destined to die in this world.”
"What?" Miyano Akemi blinked in confusion. What kind of reason was that?
Li Muyang sighed deeply. He only learned about this after the system popped up a new task.
The original plan was to take Miyano Akemi with me after leaving, and then find an opportunity to take Miyano Shiho with me there as well, but... it didn't work out.
Because of Shiho Miyano, or rather, Ai Haibara, the character is an indispensable part of the Bleach storyline! At least until the end of the story, Li Muyang cannot take Ai Haibara, or rather Shiho Miyano, away! She must stay until the end of the story!
As for Miyano Akemi... she's someone this world specifically calls upon to report to the underworld! Because her death plays a crucial and decisive role for both the male protagonist, the Grim Reaper, and the second female lead, Haibara Ai!
Therefore, Akemi Miyano's life-or-death ordeal is very difficult to overcome!
It's somewhat similar to the situation of the two sisters in Jiachang before. They were able to escape the life-and-death tribulations that were originally destined to happen because Li Muyang changed their fate against all odds!
