As Aizen in Naruto and Joined a Chat Group Chapter 543: Misaka Misuzu’s Suggestion

As a mother, Misaka Misuzu was clearly very open-minded. She not only supported her daughter dating while in junior high school, but she didn’t even seem to care about the gender of the person her daughter was dating.

To her, as long as her daughter was happy, that was all that mattered.

But now, this happiness seemed to be visibly drifting away. This gave Misaka Misuzu a sense of urgent crisis, which intensified when she saw her daughter’s vacant eyes and dazed expression.

No, this won’t do.

Misaka Misuzu felt she had to think of a way to help her daughter hold onto this happiness. This was her duty as a mother, and it was also her way of making amends to Mikoto.

From when her daughter was little, Misaka Misuzu had rarely been by her side. When her daughter first started elementary school, Misaka Misuzu and Misaka Ryūgake had sent their daughter to Academy City to study.

Although the couple had tried to fulfill all their daughter’s requests over the years, they still lacked the "companionship" that parents should provide.

Misaka Misuzu had always felt it was her dereliction of duty.

Especially after her daughter confided in her about the "clone incident," Misaka Misuzu’s guilt had completely filled her heart.

If only she had been more careful, if only she had accompanied her little Mikoto when she visited the research institute, perhaps this tragedy wouldn’t have happened.

Thinking this way, Misaka Misuzu even felt regret. At the same time, she felt even more pity for her daughter and wished even more for her to be happy.

Glancing at her sad daughter, Misaka Misuzu sighed and said, "Ruiko, may I call you that?"

"Ah, of course," Saten Ruiko said, startled. "Mrs. Misaka, it’s fine."

"You can call me Misuzu too," Misaka Misuzu said with a wink and a smile. "I don’t mind."

"Okay, okay," Saten Ruiko’s cheeks flushed, and she stammered, "M-Misuzu Auntie..."

She was genuinely embarrassed.

Even though she was the chairperson of the Academy City Student Council and could face the Academy City directors without batting an eye, even outperforming them in presence, this beautiful young woman before her still made her feel flustered.

"Actually, I’d prefer it if you called me Mom," Misaka Misuzu said softly, her lips curving into a teasing smile.

"Eh???" Saten Ruiko froze, her face turning bright red. "Th-that... this..."

"Hahaha, Ruiko is so cute!" Misaka Misuzu covered her mouth, laughing heartily.

Watching this scene, Gerard remained expressionless, but secretly took a picture and sent it to the group chat. His actions were swift and decisive. The blushing Saten Ruiko immediately appeared in the image.

Doujin Artist: Wow, wow! Ruiko’s expression is amazing!

Machete Girl: Truly amazing, like a perfectly ripe red apple! Hmm, I even want to take a bite!

Lazy Kitten: Kotonoha, are you a cannibal?

Amegakure Village’s Angel: I can understand Kotonoha’s thought. The idiom "a feast for the eyes"... I finally have new insight into it. People can indeed be so cute they make you hungry.

Curly-haired Guy: Ruiko, danger!

Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Ahhh, you’re all still mocking me! Anzhen, save me! What should I do now?

This is an Actor: I don’t think having multiple mothers is that unacceptable. Considering her age, you’re not at a disadvantage.

Skirt-Flipping Maniac: This isn’t about being at a disadvantage! What are we even here for? Weren’t we supposed to have a confrontation? Why did it turn into finding a mom?

Saten Ruiko complained wildly in the group chat but felt too shy to speak in real life.

Finally.

Misaka Mikoto couldn’t stand it anymore. She tugged at her mother’s sleeve and warned in a low voice, "Don’t go too far."

"Oh dear, how scary!" Unlike her daughter’s quiet warning, Misaka Misuzu dramatically clutched her chest. "Little Mikoto is already taking someone else’s side before even being married, it’s so heartbreaking for a mother!"

"You..." Misaka Mikoto’s face turned blood red, and she immediately retreated.

She regretted it a little now. She really shouldn’t have foolishly agreed to bring her mother to meet Ruiko. Her impression points must have plummeted now. How was she going to compete with that boy!

"Alright, let’s get back to the main topic," Seeing her daughter fall into another state of unconcealed disappointment, Misaka Misuzu knew she shouldn’t joke around too much and became serious. "I can tell, Ruiko, you definitely like this young man very much, right?"

Saten Ruiko’s face turned red again, but she nodded firmly. "Not just like, I even love him."

These words were clearly not just to appease the Misaka mother and daughter; they were also expressing her true feelings.

Saten Ruiko had harbored good feelings for Anzhen since the day she joined the group chat. His companionship in Academy City and his selfless help had gradually turned her good feelings into adoration.

It was only natural, unquestionable.

Saten Ruiko was certain that her heart had no room for any other boys anymore.

Hearing Ruiko’s indirect confession, Gerard also understood her feelings. He gently raised his hand and smoothed her hair from her forehead. This was his response, an acknowledging one.

If it were the old Gerard, he wouldn’t have responded like this. Even if he had some feelings for Ruiko, with Konan as his girlfriend, he would have kept those feelings hidden.

But not anymore. He had come to terms with it.

As for when he came to terms with it, he himself didn’t know. Perhaps it was when he reached the level of a Main God, or maybe it was one morning when he woke up. But the outcome was what mattered, not the process.

Seeing their intimate interaction, Misaka Mikoto’s heart suddenly ached. She couldn’t watch any longer and stood up, wanting to escape.

But at that moment, Misaka Misuzu grabbed her hand and pulled her back to her seat, facing Ruiko. She said, "Now you see, my little Mikoto also loves you. Are you really going to let her be single forever?"

"I..."

"I’m not trying to break up you and the young man," Misaka Misuzu interrupted Ruiko’s attempt to speak and said softly, "I just want you two to share some of your love with my little Mikoto. Would you be willing?"

What?

At this, both Ruiko and Misaka Mikoto’s eyes widened in disbelief as they looked at the beautiful young woman. Even Gerard was dumbfounded, a hint of astonishment on his face.
