Accidentally Becoming a Great Prophet?!

After sleeping soundly, my condition became exceptionally good.

“Uuugh…”

It feels good to stretch out lazily and gulp down some cold water refreshingly.

Well anyway, there’s something I need to do today.

Or rather, should I say it’s something I want to do rather than need to do?

Anyway, since my condition is good today and there was that incident before, I’m thinking of taking an awakening test.

I’m not certain, but… don’t I have that kind of feeling of “what if”?

I’d be happy to become a superhuman too.

Wouldn’t most people be happy if they thought they were ordinary but found out they had hidden powers sleeping inside?

“Tsk. Maybe because I was tired last time, I slept in quite late today…”

Actually, although I’m an amateur fortune teller, my lifestyle hasn’t changed from when I was unemployed except for fortune-telling.

Well, I even sleep sprawled out until 10 AM sometimes…

But today I woke up after 1 PM… I must have been terribly tired. Usually I wake up before 11 AM even at the latest.

Ah, of course, even though I woke up late, there shouldn’t be any particular problem with taking the awakening test today.

Because awakening tests can be conducted 24 hours a day. It’s possible at any time except for when the staff are eating.

Of course, you might have to wait in line. There are quite a lot of people who apply for awakening tests. Some people go thinking they’ve awakened even with just a slight feeling, and many people go thinking their rank has risen… anyway, it’s like that.

But well, you just have to wait in line, so since I woke up late anyway, I should eat a hearty brunch and leave slowly.

“Tsk. Is there anything to eat?”

Come to think of it, there wasn’t really anything particularly edible.

“I guess I’ll have to boil some ramen…”

It would be perfect to have ramen with cold rice, but is there any cold rice?

If there’s no cold rice, I was thinking of substituting with bibim noodles…

Anyway, as I was walking while thinking about what to eat, I saw someone in the kitchen area.

Judging by those nine tails that look fluffy, soft, and tempting…

“Yeondal-gi? What are you making??”

Just looking, it must be our new family member Yeondal-gi.

“Ah, teacher! You’re awake! I was grilling steak to commemorate becoming a Korean citizen, would you like to eat together??”

Oh, steak…

Isn’t it natural that someone who was going to boil ramen can’t resist when offered steak?

“I’d be grateful if you make it. But what do you mean by commemorating becoming a Korean citizen?”

“Aha, about that… Ta-da! I received what’s called a resident registration card this morning!”

Huh?? Resident registration card??

“How did you… No, more importantly, why did you make that?? You probably don’t need it particularly.”

“I thought it would be convenient to make it since I’m planning to live with you now, teacher!”

“I was thinking of making an identity through the underworld when she said she’d make an ID card… but she refused.”

Black Cat, who was playing with Yeobo in the living room, peeked her face out and added.

“But come to think of it, if not that method, how did it work…?”

“Nyohoho…!! I used a method befitting a gumiho! I ‘charmed’ everyone from the staff to the machines and cleanly created a human identity in just 10 minutes?”

“…Should I say that’s gumiho-like… It’s certainly yokai-like, haha…”

“I won’t get involved in useless things! Because I handled it cleanly!”

No, but how did you charm machines?! Is this the power of a great yokai gumiho!?

“Ah! And while I was at it making an identity, I’m planning to go take that awakening test or whatever too, would you like to go together, teacher?!”

“You’re going to do that too!?”

“Isn’t it better to remain as an S-rank superhuman than to be by your side with an ordinary person’s identity? I heard everything even though I didn’t see it directly?”

“I-I see… Ms. Dal-gi, you’re capable.”

“Uhuhu! Anyway, even if it’s a test or whatever, it’s made by humans! They’ll end up offering me the S-rank title without even noticing any sense of discomfort! Yohoho!!”

…But why is she so high-tension? She seems very excited…

Anyway, Yeondal-gi, who was cooking while even mixing in a humming sound, soon grilled delicious-looking steaks.

After calling Yeobo with a flick of her hand and even giving him a small chunk, Dal-gi served me the steak on a plate along with salad.

“Here! Yeondal-gi’s special lunch steak is complete!”

“Ooh…! It feels a bit like eating at a restaurant…!!”

And when I actually ate it, it was delicious too.

A Western-style lunch made by a gumiho from Liaodong who gained Korean citizenship… But come to think of it, this is quite a hybrid, isn’t it?

“But you must have been sealed for a long time, how did you learn to make these things so well? It’s amazing.”

“Huhuhu… I, Yeondal-gi, although I couldn’t see directly, played by listening and sensing human society through yokai power for long ages? This much is a piece of cake!”

I chuckled at the fox who was laughing “Ahem!” and raising her nose bridge.

Well, even when I first saw her, she was doing LoL promotion tests, right? I was worried about how a gumiho who had been sealed for a long time would adapt to the world… Maybe she knows the world even better than me.

“But that’s because you’ve been doing that, but when did you become so close with Yeobo? He’s not a picky guy, but still…”

“Ah, that guy? He was very kind and cute, showing his belly as soon as he saw me? Should I say he’s good at social life or good at reading the atmosphere? Or is his hierarchy clear? Anyway, he’s a smart and cute guy, so there was no need to become close, it was simple.”

Oh my, this Yeobo… He was an easy dog! I’m not even surprised anymore!

Somehow his personality is very good unlike his name. Of course, even if his personality followed his name, he would have been forcibly personality-reformed in front of the overwhelming power of S-rank superhumans, but…

“Ah, by the way, I was thinking of taking an awakening test too, shall we go together?”

“I’d love to!!”

Anyway, thanks to Dal-gi, I ate meat instead of ramen and headed to take the test with Dal-gi.

“Oh! This is where you take the awakening test! It’s less impressive than I thought?”

“Haha… It’s just a place to do the examination and tell you your rank, so there’s nothing particularly special about it?”

Still, sometimes you can see guild scouts. You never know when and where a powerful high-ranking superhuman might appear.

But they’re not visible here today.

Well, there’s nothing strange about them not being here, since awakening test examination centers are spread all over the country.

Anyway, after roughly registering for the examination and paying the fee, since there was a bit of a line, we drew number tickets and waited.

“Still, it doesn’t seem like the examination will take long.”

There is a line, but it’s not that long.

Anyway, as time passed while chatting with Yeondal-gi while waiting… Soon it was our turn for the examination.

Ah, by the way, as we talked, we became more comfortable in our conversation.

“Then, have a good examination.”

“You too, teacher!”

Since there wasn’t just one test device, Yeondal-gi’s number was called right after mine, and Dal-gi and I stood up and headed to our assigned examination rooms.

“Hello. Is this your first time taking the superhuman awakening test?”

“Ah, yes.”

“I see… Usually many people are first-timers, but there are also people who come multiple times for examination. Then, would you put your hand on this device in front?”

What was placed in front of me was a square emitting a blue light with some kind of pattern drawn on it.

When I put my hand on it as instructed by the staff, I felt a surprisingly not hard texture.

“This is a mass-produced test device made according to a recipe directly created by the Magic Tower. Now, please press it lightly until I say it’s done.”

Following the staff’s guidance, I pressed the device for a few seconds and then removed my hand at the staff’s signal.

“Okay~. Now the examination is complete, and if you go through that door in front, they’ll guide you about the results.”

“Yes. Thank you for your hard work.”

After lightly greeting and going out, I saw a staff member sitting and waiting, and I went and sat in front of them.

“Ah… You’re Dam Han-ul who took the test today, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“I see… Sigh… But this test result is really… Tsk…”

“No… Why are you reacting like that…?!”

What is this? Is it because it came out well? Or because it didn’t?

No, if it came out well I might understand, but if it didn’t come out well, there’s no reason to react like that, right?? It doesn’t look like a reaction to a good result either… Why on earth is he reacting like that?

“Well… First, let me tell you the result, congratulations on awakening as a superhuman, but…”

“What?! Did I really awaken?!”

No way, I really awakened?! So I’m a superhuman from now on?!

“Yes, well, according to regulations that’s true, but…”

??? But what does it mean according to regulations?

“No, please speak clearly! Why are you being so hesitant??”

“Ah, yes. I should… The situation is like this… Usually, awakening as a superhuman means that the amount of magic power possessed has exceeded a certain level. For example, if we say the magic power normally possessed by a person is 100, an awakened superhuman would have much more magic power than an ordinary person, like 150, 500, 1000, and so on. Accordingly, they also gain their own abilities.”

“Uh… Then what’s different about me??”

No, then what happened to me??

“Sometimes cases like this appear… That is… While ordinary people have, for example, less than 100 magic power, these people have just a tiny bit more magic power than that. For example, ambiguous figures like 101 or 100.7.”

“…So you’re saying I’m that kind of case…?”

“…Yes. You may be disappointed, but that’s right. In Dam Han-ul’s case, you can think of it as having about 100.5 magic power. It’s just slightly over the figure. According to regulations, this is treated as an awakened superhuman because it’s above the threshold, but in the superhuman industry or socially, it’s not considered an awakening. Your rank would be F-.”

“Haha, it’s certainly a ridiculous case.”

Wow, am I now F-rank amateur fortune teller superhuman Dam Han-ul? Who hasn’t even awakened?

This is quite a funny situation, isn’t it…?? It’s also absurd…

“Ahem, still, in cases like this, there are instances of properly awakening later… So you shouldn’t be too disappointed.”

“Yes, well… Thank you for the consolation.”

The staff member cleared his throat and handed me a superhuman registration card in card form.

…An object with my photo and F-rank clearly written on it.

“……”

Tsk, this really feels strange…

Anyway, even though I received it, I took it and went out, and I saw Dal-gi smiling leisurely while receiving the gaze of numerous people at once.

I can tell just by looking. She must have gotten S-rank, right?

Thinking that, I smirked and approached Dal-gi, who was smiling and waving her hand at me, and walked out together.

“What rank did you get?”

“F-rank. You must have gotten S-rank, right? You don’t need to tell me.”

“Uhuhu… That’s quite an interesting rank, isn’t it? As expected, such toys can’t properly sense your greatness, teacher!”

“Uh… I don’t think that much… ? Although it is a bit of a funny rank.”

Still, what does it matter if the rank came out low? It’s not like the world is ending just because that came out a bit low, and I’m already making good money and have many friends.

It’s just a bit absurd that I thought I had awakened but actually hadn’t, and they happened to treat it as an awakening and gave me F-rank.

“Then shall we go back since we seem to have finished our business?”

“Yes! But can I try driving this time?”

“Uh… I don’t mind, but do you know how?”

“My theory is perfect? I made a driver’s license along with making the identity!”

No, how did you do that too…!?

“Don’t worry? I’ll definitely protect you even if there’s an accident! I’m a veteran EURO Truck player, you know?!”

“…Does that apply in reality…? The car is sturdy so it should be okay even if there’s an accident… Well anyway, give it a try.”

If anything happens, I’ll just use autonomous driving. Wouldn’t a car that can run at the speed of sound have something like autonomous driving or AI? Since it’s equipped with an amazing thing that can even lift one side of the car to drive and even perform low-altitude flight when the road gets blocked while driving at high speed, it should be okay even if a beginner does it, right?? No matter what, she’s a gumiho after all.

Anyway, like that, through Dal-gi’s driving, which showed surprisingly smooth and stable but speed-maniac aspects, Yeondal-gi, who became an S-rank superhuman, and I, Dam Han-ul, who became an F-rank amateur fortune teller superhuman, returned home.
