I Became a Fortune Teller in a Game My Sister Made - Chapter 223
223 – 43. Farewell
Liu, Lane, Eunha, Eileen.
It was obvious why your female student was blocking the exit door.
Because I contacted you.
“Everyone arrived sooner than expected.”
“I thought you would move quickly.”
“I’ve been following this mental patient.”
“…I came separately, my Min.”
“Nam Goong Min.”
Leaving the three female students who seemed to be engaged in a skit, Eileen, who was the only one with a serious expression, took a step forward.
After what happened at the Tower of Proof, she was worried that the rumor that she was a saint might spread, so she was reluctant to go outside as much as possible.
She probably thought it was meaningless now that the saint had practically taken over the church.
In some ways, the saintess who seemed to understand me the best out of these four people ── She hesitated for a moment and then she turned to face me.
“Are you planning to go?”
It was a short question, but it penetrates the essence.
I didn’t say anything about the most important ‘where’.
The moment when you are trying to answer something that is so straightforward that it is so important.
“…Don’t go, you brat.”
“Mr. Liu?”
“Aren’t you… A bit arrogant just because you’ve been to the US once? It’s a hell of a place. Especially around the Pentagon.”
At the words Liu chewed.
Rain and Eunha also followed along.
“This is confidential, but the Arthur dimension sent exploration parties to the United States more than once. And none of them came back alive. We only saw monsters pouring down like a waterfall from the gates that covered the sky….”
“Our people and the Korean Empire are not much different. Countries around the world are struggling to find the cause of the Gate incident that occurred in the United States. If we know the reason, we will be able to prevent another incident. However, the result is different from Arthur’s. No. In fact, we almost lost a precious consul.”
“…You mean the consul?”
” Was originally the leader of a unit deployed on such secret missions. However… After returning from the United States with a serious injury, ironically, he awakened a special skill and rose to his current position.”
I knew that the three consuls of the Korean Empire all possessed special skills. Rather, it should be said that one must have special skills to be eligible to become a consul.
‘Because the awakening of special skills cannot be predicted in the first place.’
Special skills are as difficult and inscrutable as they are to obtain, and their abilities are also powerful. Even though I had to prepare a lot for the That was useful right away, it was a skill that was able to mentally subdue Hector Arthur.
The reason I brought up the example of a dictator here probably means that heading to the United States is extremely dangerous.
But that’s why I couldn’t help but smile.
“Everyone…What are you talking about?”
“Huh?”
“Why am I going to America? I don’t want to die.”
I guess they mistakenly thought that the place I was going to was America.
Actually, when I think about it, the idea that I, who is by far the weakest in combat power, would head to the United States is strange……
‘Well, it’s all my karma.’
If it were a real life-or-death fight instead of following set rules like at an exchange meeting, I wouldn’t be able to defeat even a single ordinary fighter even if 10 people gathered together.
It is a non-combat profession, and Is the weakest among them, especially so.
But isn’t what I’ve done so far a task?
Duel with Hector Arthur, the pinnacle of archers, deal with a runaway Galaxy, and engage in a fist fight with the Emperor.
I’ve been involved in many other things, but is it really a big deal to go to the United States now?
More than anything, Abel will be there now.
“If I were to go to help the warrior in the first place, I would have just gone with him from the beginning. Why would I go separately?”
“Hmm…………….”
“I still know myself quite well. Even if you guys go right away, it’s too much for me to be of much help, so what would I do if I go alone?”
Liu, Lane, Eunha. All three are people who can be said to be overwhelmingly strong and cannot be compared to anyone like me.
In the end, in front of the hero who activated , He is literally just a being on a different level.
Whether it is a gate that covers the sky and the city, an infinite number of monsters pouring out of that gate, or a powerful boss-level entity born at the center.
Anyway, in front of the , It will be nothing more than an equally annoying obstacle.
The point is the question of how much the Can be maintained, and Abel’s power itself was not a factor to worry about from the beginning.
‘Strictly speaking, it is a mental issue.’
Abel’s character event, unlike other events, was in the form of the player directly controlling Abel, who entered the United States alone.
Rather, it was an event that was comparable to Hack and Slash, where you could refreshingly destroy the endless waves of monsters.
However, there was a time limit to the , And it was important to maintain that time by increasing or decreasing it through various events until arriving at the Pentagon.
If it was the last time I saw Abel……… It seemed like there was no need to worry too much.
“Anyway, I’m not going to America, so don’t worry.”
“Oh, I just misunderstood…”
“I’m sorry, Namgoong Min.”
“I should have trusted my people…”
The three female students strangely avoided eye contact, probably because they were embarrassed for shouting out loud for no reason.
Eileen was the only one who kept looking at me during that whole conversation.
“Namgoong Min oppa.”
“…Yes, Eileen.”
“You want to go, right?”
Again, I asked the same question.
Those words have not changed from the first time. This time, it’s not a saint, but Eileen.
When others noticed the discomfort and tried to say something.
“…Yes, I’m going.”
“Will it take long?”
“Well, okay.”
“……I see.”
Only then did Rio, Rain, and Eunha look at me with changed eyes, as if they realized something.
If you’re not going to America to help the warrior, where on earth can you go?
Everyone already knew the answer.
Isn’t that why you did absurd things like stocks?
“Hey, hey, fortune teller.”
“Yes, Mr. Liu.”
“Are you going…To the world?”
“To be precise, it is not the original world. However, it should be said that it is the border between them.”
I took the key separately and still hold it in my hand.
The ‘Developer’s Room Key’ received by clearing the Saint’s character event.
Even though I can use it at any time, I have been putting off using it until now.
It was because I had not yet been able to shake off all my regrets.
But.
‘Aileen, Lane, Kim Seong-il, Eunha, Seongja, Lucas, Abel.’
There have been times when a system called character events came up, and there were times when it didn’t come up at all.
But looking back on the first year of this Romance Academy.
All the character events I knew about had already been cleared.
Aileen coexisted with the saint.
Lane overcame his strengths and weaknesses and found his own path.
Kim Seong-il finally became emperor.
The galaxy became one with the killing mind and became perfect.
The saint made his choice after proof.
Lucas is leading Arthur by breaking away from meritocracy and arrogance.
After many questions and delusions, Abel took hold of her mission and left for America.
I still had debts to repay and doubts about my identity.
‘Lily…… She might really have been a female protagonist.’
The student council president, who called himself chivalrous, really solved many problems like a knight in a fairy tale.
It has been a long time since I came up with an answer.
So.
“Mr. Liu, Lane, Eunha, Eileen.”
“……………….”
“……………….”
“……………………….”
“……………….”
“The reason I sent a separate call and brought everyone together was to say hello.”
I have already said goodbye to Abel. There was no reply from Lucas, Seongja, and Seongil Kim.
As soon as we got the call, it was these four female students who came to us urgently.
I have no choice but to tell you first.
“Today, I’m going to meet her ex-sister.”
“…Namgoong Min, does it have to be today?”
“It doesn’t have to be today, Raine. But there’s no reason it has to be tomorrow either.”
“My Min, we just need to spend more time together. We just need to make more enjoyable memories.”
“That’s right. But the galaxy, if you think like that, there’s no end to it.”
“……Namgoong Min oppa.”
“Go ahead, Eileen.”
“I can see you tomorrow, right?”
“……………….”
Is it because of , A saint’s job skill? Every word Eileen said went straight to the point.
Moreover, I guess I’ve become more accustomed to coexistence, so I feel like I’m seeing the saint in one eye and Eileen in the other.
The question seemed to be asked at the same time without dividing the saint and Eileen.
I am.
“Tomorrow, when you wake up with your eyes open.”
“……………….”
“You wouldn’t know.”
I could only give an ambiguous answer that seemed to betray expectations.
With those words, I went through Lane, Eunha, and Eileen.
I stood in front of Rio.
“Mr. Liu.”
“This……bastard.”
“Mr. Liu.”
“f*ck you, what are you trying to say…?”
Hmm, I didn’t expect this.
Liu’s voice spoke as if he was cursing me, and there was a little bit of crying mixed in.
Realizing once again the feelings she had for me, I felt relieved.
The fact that there is still something I can do for Rio.
“Mr. Liu.”
“What, why!!”
“There’s something I haven’t told you yet, Mr. Liu.”
“……………….”
“You’re roughly guessing, right?”
Liu, who was venting his anger, was looking up at me while breathing heavily, as if he sensed something.
In those eyes, I see doubt for the first time in a long time.
It disappears soon.
“I’m not leaving right now. There are still people I need to see.”
“……….”
“So, let’s gather again in front of this base at midnight today.”
“……I am.”
“Well, I have something to talk about with Mr. Liu for a moment.”
At that moment, the eyes of the other three female students turn to Liu.
What are the emotions contained in those eyes that seem to be glaring?
Jealousy, anger, and envy.
For a moment, I was worried about the reaction that made me wrap my head around inadvertently.
The three people stepped back, as if they had ended the conversation with their eyes.
“You suspicious b*tch, don’t do anything useless to Namgoong Min.”
“You know if I did something to our people, right?”
“It’s only one day, but I’ll serve Namgoong Min thoroughly. He’s a non-believer.”
“…They are very damned.”
Liu sighed and talked for a moment, then left his piercing gaze behind and walked towards me.
With unconcealed anticipation, the slightest doubt, and obvious irritation.
“What are you doing? Let’s go.”
“……Yes, Mr. Liu.”
Rather than Liu, who has recently become softer, it seems like the snappy reactions and irritation from when we first met have returned.
I followed her with a strange sense of joy.
Without a specific destination or direction, Liu walked ahead until the three female students standing in front of the base were out of sight, as if to see them off.
Soon she turned around, scratching her head.
“So, where are you?”
“Yes?”
“What I’m trying to say… I think I know very well what it is.”
“Hmm.”
“Actually, the fact that you know this doesn’t make sense. It’s something I’ve never talked about or found. Of course, there won’t be any evidence, circumstantial evidence, or anything like that, right? It just happened to exist in a car that I had just given up on. “I came to this academy after hearing a rumor that it was happening.”
The reason Liu Yen, a world-renowned billionaire, decided to enroll in a place called Romance Academy.
What’s more, there is a purpose to forcibly enrolling students by increasing the original number of students by trading in bribes.
Objects you need to find in this academy.
An item that can only be found at Romance Academy.
And actually, it’s something that shouldn’t exist.
“But I won’t bother to ask. In fact, the very idea of asking about the source of information is ridiculous. You’re a fortune teller, right? Everything you’ve done so far cannot be explained simply by looking at the future or the past. First. “I doubted it, but now it’s not like that anymore.”
“……………….”
“So, I believe what you say. Of course I don’t. In fact, I’m even more nervous because I believe what you say. So, I’ll ask you again.”
“Yes.”
“Where is the thing I’m looking for?”
This is probably something that Liu was desperately looking for after coming to the academy.
That can be said to be the core of Rio’s character event.
“…Nothing.”
“What?”
“If Mr. Liu is looking for a golden toad, a family memento… It is no longer in the world.”
“……………….”
No.
In the first place.
The academy didn’t even exist.
That was the ending of the character event.
