I Became a Fortune Teller in a Game My Sister Made - Chapter 236
236 – Side story. After that day
Why am I here?
“By the way, Prince, is it okay for you to stay here? You are the one who has to take care of state affairs.”
“It’s been three months since I became emperor, and they still call me prince. This feels like execution. And since state affairs are held in the morning and evening, it’s okay to come over for lunch.”
“Aha, but what can I do if I’ve been calling you that for a year and it gets stuck in my mouth? Just cut my throat.”
“What should I do? If I hit the head of a public servant, I will be called a cancer soldier.”
“Prince, the emperor who beheads a secret fortune teller is not a king of cancer, but a king of Ming.”
“Huh? Are you talking about your secret power in front of the emperor?”
“I also gave up the position of emperor.”
“For this, I should be deeply grateful for the fortune teller’s mercy.”
Would it be okay to listen to a conversation like that?
“Lucas, what is the stock status?”
“Wait. Now that more of Arthur’s capital is being invested in the European stock market, the stock price itself is booming, but the bubble is also big.”
“…What does it mean?”
“Roughly speaking, it is an environment where operational forces and fraudsters run rampant. If you take Artur’s public funds here, you will be killed by Lane.”
“Well, didn’t he say he only does it with pocket money?”
“……You just have to pay it back. If it doesn’t work out anyway, just track down the faction bastards and bury them──”
Is it really okay?
“Oh my, there is no God today again.”
“Saint. What on earth did you do earlier…?”
“This is a mobile phone game that was recently recommended. However, the highest rating doesn’t appear at all because of probability manipulation.”
“Is it okay to say that there is no God?”
“Anyway, I don’t belong to a church here, so what does it matter? Oh, freshman sister? Do you go to church by any chance?”
“Uh, uh, uh, me!?”
“Yes, sister, that’s what you’re saying.”
“Well…My parents are gone, but I don’t really…”
“Then it doesn’t matter.”
The emperor jokes about his position as emperor.
Arthur, the head of the family, is serious about stocks.
A saint who denies God.
Except for the warrior who was the only one to remain silent, everyone was the one who completely stole Leni’s soul.
‘This…… ‘Is this a dream?’
Otherwise, there’s no way the emperor, matriarch, saint, and warrior would all be in front of me right now, right?
I don’t think I’ll ever see even one of them’s face even if I spend my whole life, but how much more are they all gathered together in this small fortune teller’s house?
It was so unrealistic that the people in front of me seemed like actors or fakes.
‘Twins who look very similar…… ?’
Although Lennie was halfway to the stage of escaping reality, he still sat in his chair and maintained the correct posture due to his instinct to live.
My whole body shook slightly, as if I was shaking like an aspen, but I somehow held on by clenching my teeth.
They were making jokes as if they were used to her, leaving her crazy and nervous.
“Lucas, are European stocks pretty good?”
“Your Majesty, the Emperor. If you intervene, you will be completely destroyed, so please be considerate of yourself.”
“Well, what would happen if I intervened? I know full well that Arthur’s funds are overflowing.”
“Not mine, but Namgoong Min’s stock will be destroyed.”
“Never come in, prince.”
“……Sure.”
“……………Stocks…….”
“Sir, are you interested in talking about stocks?”
“…I have no intention of risking my life like some…Fortune teller.”
“You’re risking your life! I’m just risking my bank account, which is like my life!”
“Even if I lose that, the great fortune will make up for it, right?”
“Then isn’t my life socially dead? I could get a proposal now with a debt IOU.”
“Hmm…I guess it’s okay. I’ll tell Eunha.”
“Oh, please.”
I just wish I could quickly see the fortune and leave……
Lenny sat opposite Namgoong Min, but the moment he shuffled the cards felt like a really long time.
‘I curse…… !!’
It’s clear that they tried to assassinate me just because I stayed for a few days! You will no longer be my friend…… !!
While Lenny was pouring out all kinds of curses at the friend who recommended the fortune telling book, Namgoong Min lightly shuffled the cards and laid them out on the table with a smile.
Chrrr.
“Okay, Mr. Lennie?”
“Ah, yes!”
“Pick any card you want.”
“Huh? I haven’t told you about my concerns yet…”
“Um…It’s okay, so just pull it out.”
Oh, is that even a type of dot? After all, you are a fortune teller who has an emperor, matriarch, saint, and warrior by your side.
Yes. Let’s check the fortune quickly and get out of here.
‘Huh? By the way, did I tell you my name…… ?’
I had a small question, but I wanted to hurry out so I grabbed any card and flipped it over.
“Emperor…?”
“……Major Arcana number 4, The Emperor card.”
“Then is it my turn to step forward?”
Lenny’s gaze naturally turned to the owner of the voice, the Emperor of the Korean Empire. The only person the emperor card points to here is the actual emperor.
But Namgoong Min, who thought for a moment, smiled and gave a completely different answer.
“Originally, it would be the prince, but isn’t Mr. Leni American?”
“Yes, that’s right! How…?”
“I know everything. Anyway, since Mr. Lennie is American, the emperor card naturally refers to the American emperor.”
“Ah…Ah?”
Emperor of the Americans? There is no such thing.
If we were to elect someone similar, there would be a president, but the current president is only temporary and not properly appointed.
Even if that were the case in the first place, how would you meet the president? …
‘I see, it’s easier to meet people than the people gathered here, right?’
“I’m not talking about the president. Speaking of the emperor, isn’t he the one who makes the people feel comfortable?”
“I see… Right?”
“If you think about it that way, who is the person who has made Americans most comfortable today? I can see him right next to you.”
“Ah…?”
No way.
Hero?
“……Me……?”
“What do you mean, hero?”
“That’s it! Hero, since the results of the fortune-telling are like this, you are the only one who can solve Mr. Leni’s troubles!”
“……Uh…….”
“I’m sure you won’t ignore the American freshman! Weren’t you only looking at Lennie earlier!”
“That’s…A junior…”
“As expected, I love my hometown and my juniors! I will only trust you as a warrior!”
Huh?
“I hope you two can go for a light walk!”
Huh?
“……………….”
“……………….”
Uh oh…… ?

After lightly pushing Lennie and Abel out of the fortune telling shop.
After neatly locking the door, I returned to my original place.
This is perfect.
“Namgoong Min, what are you talking about…?”
“I just found a good relationship.”
“It’s a good relationship.”
Of course it’s a good relationship. So, they pushed ahead by using the argument that the emperor card meant Abel.
‘It’s just the right timing.’
Lenny Hyde.
In , He is a character that enters when the player enters the second year, and is the most important junior character.
Why is the proportion so high? That was simple.
‘Because it was a character who had a fling with Abel.’
So, it was a character that appeared as the player’s romantic interest. Let’s not forget that Did not feature female characters.
In the first place, it was a game created by Jisoo repeating time from her own perspective, so the default female protagonist was inevitable.
Anyway, Lennie was a character who clung to Abel and showered him with all kinds of affection due to his unique cuteness and characteristics as an American junior character.
If she did not increase Abel’s likeability rating in first grade, Abel will have a fling with Lennie, and if she does not get involved with Abel until the end of second grade, she will start dating him in third grade.
I also said in a later conversation that the two got married, I guess? However, if you do not clear Abel’s character event, she cannot withstand the pressure of her mission, commits suicide, and jumps into her pentagon, ultimately leading to Abel’s death. The story ends with the extremely unpleasant story of Lennie being shocked and committing suicide.
However, that is a story with a bad ending. It doesn’t matter now that Abel has already accomplished her mission.
‘She was in the second episode, when she attacked Abel, she was such an obnoxious character.’
When the player takes the Abel route, he is a character who sabotages the relationship between Abel and the player at all costs, and attacks the hero, saying he will definitely make me happy.
What you’re doing is disgusting, but that doesn’t mean you’re backstabbing or arguing, but rather attacking you head on? It was quite a treat.
At least it was much better than Rio or Lane in the game. Wow.
Compared to Rain, who is in the villainous position at the beginning, or Liu, who is in the harsh and high-pressure store position, Leniya is a fairy.
I was even more likable because I was able to become friendly with him even though I played as a male protagonist whose likability was locked beyond that of a lover.
In other words, spring has come to Abel too.
Anyway, speaking of spring………
“Well, since that’s what you’re saying, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Prince.”
“Hmm?”
“How are you doing with senior Lily Whiterose lately?”
“Puhup!?”
In my surprise(?) Attack, Kim Seong-il squirted out the instant coffee he was drinking.
The quickness to turn his head to a place where there were no people in that moment, and the reddening face in that moment, were spectacular.
But Lucas, why are you suddenly looking this way?
“Cough!! Cough… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“I can hear it all in my ears. This is my eighth date request.”
“Where on earth did you get that…?”
“My network of contacts is rather wide, isn’t it?”
I heard it from Eunha, I heard it from Samuel, and most importantly, I heard it from Lily herself.
But that doesn’t mean I’m trying to make fun of Kim Seong-il. That’s because it’s seriously a possibility.
“Let me tell you in advance, Lily-senpai likes people who are confident and manly. In other words, people who are knights.”
“That’s…”
“I know you’ve already failed several times, but I like people who overcome those failures and get back up again.”
“Umm…!!”
This is not for nothing. This is something I heard from Lily herself.
At first, I thought Kim Seong-il was just a junior, but he said that he increasingly liked the attitude of continuing to bump hearts even though he rejected him.
‘I asked for a date eight times…….’
Lily and I, who rejected everything, and Kim Seong-il, who didn’t give up despite that, are truly amazing. In some ways, is this a match made in heaven?
In , Kim Seong-il and Lily Whiterose never connected, but we have come too far to argue with that now.
It wasn’t just a simple game to begin with, but it was made based on the real things Jisoo had experienced.
“Lucas, did you hear that right? Do you still have feelings?”
“……Nothing.”
“Really?”
“It’s true! I just got blinded for a moment, but I really don’t have any feelings for Lily right now!!”
“Then what?”
Hey, I’m an extreme gold lover…… It’s actually surprising that he hasn’t fallen for a new girl until now.
You said you were busy after taking over as the head of the family, but you must be quite relaxed now.
Well, Lucas, I’ll take care of everything since I don’t miss out on looks, skills, and background.
…… There was one thing that bothered me from earlier.
“Saint.”
“hehehehe, why are you doing that?”
“It’s because I was bothered by the way you were smiling a little while ago.”
“hahahaha! Did I really care? I should apologize for this. I can’t stop laughing lately.”
“What’s going on?”
I heard that the Pope was ousted a long time ago, and it’s already been a while since the faction centered around the saint took control of the church.
Is there anything good happening now?
“Well, oh my.”
“………?”
“hahahaha, the letter accidentally fell out of my arms.”
…… What.
Why is there a heart in the letter?
You bastard?
“What should I do about this? Everyone found out about the letter…”
“…Are you Chloe?”
“As expected of a fortune teller! How did you know? You are truly brave!”
“Since when…?”
“It hasn’t been that long, but hmm. Just because you’re a saint doesn’t mean you have to be single… I also have enough heart.”
“Wow….”
“Wow, it’s almost time. I’ll go back to reply to this love letter.”
With the smile of a winner, the saint exited the fortune teller with unnecessary pomp.
Kim Seong-il, who was dazed by the sudden news, quickly looked at his watch and stood up.
“I’m sorry. I have to wake up first.”
“Oh, are you going to do official work?”
“That’s not true…But I decided to see Lily at the cafe first.”
“…Yes?”
“It’s not a date! It’s not a date, but… I said I just wanted to talk, and he gladly accepted. I plan on talking about dating again there. You gave me some advice, too!”
“Aha…”
“Then that’s enough!”
Kim Seong-il, with a smile that would not be outdone by a saint, hurriedly ran out of the fortune teller.
…… Although I feel a strangely earnest gaze from next to me.
“Lucas. I also have work to do now.”
“Lie.”
“I’m not lying. Rio was supposed to come soon.”
“It doesn’t matter if I’m there!”
“Rain is coming too.”
“…Then I should go out.”
Lucas, who lowered his head as if thinking about his sister who would be angry if she stayed here for no reason, trudged out.
Just before closing.
“…Nam Goong Min, you’re our friend, right?”
“Of course.”
“Mosol comrade and friend. Right?”
“……………….”
What kind of answer can you give to the last sentence?
As if my silence was a sufficient answer, Lucas immediately closed the door of the fortune teller and ran out.
‘Cheer up, Lucas!’
Soon you will be the only mother!
Of all the special job classes, only you can become a soloist!
Still…… Cheer up……… !!
