21st Century Necromancer-Chapter 559 - 555: Blessings from the Matchmaking God (Subscribe and Monthly Tickets Requested)

The Matchmaking God's naturally expected remark immediately amused everyone and dissolved the tension brought about by Yuiko Shiina, lightening the atmosphere in the venue.

Everyone simply thought the little girl was just acting like a child, wanting to playfully cause trouble. However, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi were well aware that this little girl was indeed a real deity, so her words could very well be true.

Yu Chen looked at Hiromi Jounouchi, exchanged a glance with her, and seeing her slightly nod in agreement, he understood her intention and thus approached the master of ceremonies to discuss.

"Mr. Chen Yu, this may not be appropriate," the master of ceremonies said with some difficulty. Although it was not unheard of for friends and family of the bride and groom to take over a segment of the wedding ceremony, entrusting the most important ritual part to a child was still troubling for him.

After all, if anything unexpected occurred, it would affect the reputation and reviews of the Imperial Hotel.

"Don't worry, that child is not here to cause trouble." However, knowing that the other party was a deity, Chen Yu was not worried about her causing any mischief. Since she proclaimed herself to be the Matchmaking God, she would most certainly be the most earnest and devoted when it came to the ceremony of marriage and forming unions.

For her, this was the source of her power and an important wellspring of faith. She would not and could not mess around with something that concerned the very foundation of her being. Doing so could, at the least, shake her followers' belief and reduce her divine power, and at worst, cause her divine rank to collapse, even leading to her demise.

Seeing Chen Yu's firm stance, the master of ceremonies had no choice but to yield the stage to the little girl who claimed to be the Matchmaking God.

"All right, you are now the master of the ceremony. Shall we begin?" Chen Yu asked the Matchmaking God.

The little girl-like Matchmaking God held her head high with pride and, after a slight nod, stepped to the center of the stage. She cleared her throat in a pretentious manner and then, using the microphone, said to Chen Yu and Hiromi Jounouchi, "Now please stand in front of me."

When the Matchmaking God uttered these words, Chen Yu distinctly felt a surge of divine power, causing him to suddenly become alert. However, upon noticing the subtle changes happening to the Matchmaking God's clothes, Chen Yu roughly understood what she intended to do, which clearly wasn't something to be displayed in front of everyone.

Just as Chen Yu inwardly sighed that even deities were still children after all, planning to cast a spell to conceal the changes on the Matchmaking God's body, another magical fluctuation beat him to it, forming an illusion over the entire venue.

The strength of the illusion wasn't significant, only affecting ordinary people by obscuring their vision, making them believe they were still seeing the unchanged stage.

At this time, the Matchmaking God's garments, which had looked quite ordinary, had transformed into the magnificent attire of a deity.

Chen Yu looked at Hiromi Jounouchi beside him, saw that she had no objections, and so took her hand and walked together to stand before the Matchmaking God.

"I ask you, do you truly love each other?" the Matchmaking God inquired of Chen Yu and Hiromi Jounouchi.

Regarding this question, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi didn't even need to exchange a glance before they answered together, "Yes."

Hearing their response, the Matchmaking God's expression seemed somewhat reluctant, but a red thread still appeared as Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi answered, trailing in front of them.

"So you truly love her and wish to be with her for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do you part?" The words of the Matchmaking God carried a tinge of reluctance and barely perceptible scorn and indifference, yet also contained an inexplicable anticipation.

"Yes, no matter what happens, we will not part, and the bond between us cannot even be severed by life or death." Facing the Matchmaking God's inquiry, Yu Chen felt her Divine Power influencing him, compelling him to speak his true inner thoughts. Although he could resist this influence with his own Divine Power, Yu Chen chose to openly accept the Matchmaking God's influence and voiced his heartfelt words.

Hearing Yu Chen speak this way brightened the Matchmaking God's expression, and one end of the red thread also entwined around him.

Hiromi Jounouchi, standing to the side, could naturally see the changes around her. Seeing the Shrine that appeared out of nowhere behind the Matchmaking God as Yu Chen answered, she understood what was happening. So when the Matchmaking God looked towards her, she also knew how to reply.

"For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; I am willing to love him, to make marriage vows with him, to live together—in our lifelong matrimony remaining faithful unto him." These were the traditional wedding vows, which Hiromi Jounouchi had particularly memorized before.

Although the ceremony was now presided over by the Matchmaking God, Hiromi Jounouchi still felt this was her best response to the Matchmaking God's question.

And with Hiromi Jounouchi's reply, the other end of the red thread also wrapped around her.

When the red thread connected the two of them, the entire stage transformed into a very simple yet sacred-looking Shrine, and the Matchmaking God at that moment truly revealed her form as a deity.

"A lifetime of guardianship, an everlasting contract, destiny has already linked you two together. Such a well-matched couple, I, in the name of the Matchmaking God, bind you in matrimony!" Seeing the red thread linking the two of them, the Matchmaking God's face beamed with a splendid smile, her hands clasped together using her power to join the fate between Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi.

Seeing the successful union of the pair, the Matchmaking God seemed very happy, "I don't really believe in destinies ordained by the heavens or fated by destiny, a lifelong promise is too difficult for you humans to uphold. Very few humans can keep a lifetime's pledge. You are so prone to changing your minds, even the most solemn vows can be easily abandoned, which is why I don't believe in human oaths.

However, I am still willing to bind any couple that's meant to be, because everyone deserves the right to be united by fate. I cannot give humans a magnificent life like other deities do, but I will strive to guard each and every beautiful matrimonial bond because that is the very reason for my existence!"

Listening to the Matchmaking God's words, Yu Chen could very much understand her feelings. As the human world becomes ever more splendid, human hearts, which were once simple, are increasingly likely to waver under external influences. The beauty of love, which could once be moved by a single letter or a word, has gradually disappeared in this luxurious world, and humans have become more fickle.

This, undoubtedly, has a negative impact on the Matchmaking God, who relies on matrimonial bonds for Divine Power, weakening her strength; but she still believes in every beautiful matrimonial bond and is willing to protect these bonds. This made Yu Chen fill with respect for the young deity girl and he earnestly thanked her, "Thank you for your blessings, Matchmaking God."
