I Became a Fortune Teller in a Game My Sister Made

9 – 3. Mysterious Fortune Teller

It’s really good.

The day after the fair negotiations with Liu Yan, I settled for a night at a suitable inn and went for a walk along the main street of the shopping district.

I couldn’t even imagine what was inside, and a smile naturally leaked out as I touched the inside pocket of the still thin suit.

‘Still, I did write more.’

What is now in the inside pocket is a check with Liu Yan’s rough signature. Perhaps it was embarrassing that I was caught trying to trick me openly, but the amount written on the check was 1.1 million yuan, not 1 million.

To be honest, I’m a little nervous that this thin piece of paper is roughly 200 million won.

I barely went to college by collecting national scholarships from student loans, and considering food, living expenses, and the money I send to my younger sister, I never dreamed of saving money even after moving from job to job.

With a whopping 200 million won in my hands, I feel like I have to hide it, and I feel burdened that someone might be aiming for it.

‘composure… … let’s do it.’

Even if it was 200 million in the game, it wasn’t that big of money. Even in the beginning, if you collect hard, you can quickly collect 200 million, and if you want to establish a base outside the academy, 200 million or even 1 billion is ridiculous.

But what I have in my arms right now is not scraps of game inventory data, but real money to live on.

Laughter leaked out as I realized that, without realizing it, I was walking with a little crouch as if I was guarding a check.

“I think I know how you feel.”

Suspicion of someone is really tiring.

Doubting, confirming, and being vigilant about the true intentions of all those who approach me is perfect for people to go crazy.

It is said that there was luck in the occupation of ＜big man＞, but Liu, who managed to reach that position while suffering from such a suspicious disease, was a masterpiece.

‘So I guess I’ll have to change my mind too.’

If I consider my end goal this… … … Cat 200 million is not even money.

In the future, you will go through countless more money, more expensive artifacts, and more rare opportunities for the ending, and… … If you get swayed by 200 million won, the future is a problem!

Yes, let’s walk confidently! I’m not Namgoong-Min who would be happy with this much money—

puck.

“Oh, sorry.”

“──Don’t come closer!”

“……yes?”

“………ah.”

ah.

It’s embarrassing.

Rain Arthur is the daughter of the Arthur family, the most prestigious family in Europe, and at the same time, she is a chosen person with the rare special job ＜psychic＞.

However, she did not have the arrogance or self-confidence to believe in her abilities.

The Arthur family’s upbringing was as strict as that, and above all, there was someone who was superior to Rain Arthur in every way.

＜Mage＞ Lucas Arthur, and ＜The Wealth＞ Liu Yan.

Growing up under the shadow of her older brother and childhood friend, she was definitely blessed with talent, but she always lived oppressed.

It wasn’t going astray, but it was enough to be distorted.

“Hey, take it quickly.”

“Oh, I see!”

“What cosmetics did you order last time?”

“Sorry, lady. The current delivery has been delayed…”

“If you knew that, you stupid idiot should have gone there yourself! I have a tea time with my brother tomorrow, and if I ruin it, you’ll take responsibility!?”

“Sorry. I’ll be right back!”

“If you are late, you will be fired, so I know that.”

He treats the servants of the Arthur family as if they were slaves, and always looks down on them from the position of the strong.

A wicked woman who knows and uses her position well and does not hesitate to cause harm to others.

Rain Artur was a strong man to the weak.

“What are your plans for today?”

“Yes, first of all, you can look around the bases chosen by the family and choose the one you want. After that, you will have a meeting with the ladies of various families in Europe, and in the evening, a dinner with the heads of the merchant houses will be prepared in the grand banquet hall of the Academy Shopping District. .”

“I’m in a bad mood today, so I’ll cancel all of my schedules after that.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Despite her violent behavior of canceling all meetings scheduled for weeks ago on the same day simply because of her mood, her attendants followed her orders as if they were accustomed to it.

An irresponsible act that can be called a tyrant beyond a villain.

Even though it was not a promise only related to Lane herself, but a promise that depended on the prestige and influence of the Arthur family, the reason why she could act carelessly.

“Instead, hold a meeting with the European academy cadets. Mainly from Germany or England. France is excluded because the royal family was hostile to it last time.”

“Can we exclude all French families?”

“Of course. In the first place, a b*tch called a saint is leading the revolutionary army, isn’t it? They are fighting well, but it would be a waste if you intervene and the direction is focused this way.”

“All right.”

“And the guild leaders make an appointment again. Why are they inviting Arthur to their base? Are you going to have a fight? Let’s meet at our family mansion unconditionally.”

“yes.”

It was because even after considering her tyranny and various dogmas, Lane was quite capable.

It’s just that he’s inferior to Lucas Arthur and Liu Yan, but Lane Arthur is a race that can be called a genius from the point of view of a criminal.

That’s why you always stick to what you think is right and act accordingly. If you speak a little softer in the whole process… … Her notoriety would have been much less.

As I said before, she was strong against the weak, so she didn’t feel the need to do so.

“So, where is the base?”

“Yes. There are two inside the academy and three outside. First, to the base outside…”

“……wait for a sec.”

“miss?”

“Be quiet.”

At some point, her sharp gaze goes somewhere.

The rather sudden action caused the attendants who followed her to turn their eyes accordingly.

“That’s…”

“Do you know who it is?”

“Of course. ＜Fortune Teller＞ Namgoong-min. Among the newly enrolled students, there are only 8 of them, including the young lady, who have a special job.”

“Other than that?”

“yes?”

Lane frowned at the bewildered attendant’s answer. Her annoyance seemed to set in when the attendant, who was at least capable by her standards, behaved in a frustrating way.

“That’s the end of the information? Are you kidding me?”

“I’m sorry. But the rich man used his hand first… Even if he tried to investigate the background, his checks were too severe.”

“……That b*tch? You say you’re cheating on that fortune teller?”

“It’s more of a competition with us rather than protection. We were told that it was difficult for us to squeeze in because the manpower invested in Namgoong-min’s background investigation was beyond imagination.”

“I’ll give you three days, so tell me to find out more about it. Then—”

The fortune teller, Namgoong Min.

Although he couldn’t remember the name, he clearly remembered the divination that embarrassed Liu Yan. It was pleasant because it was the rare time when the couple, who always pretended to be relaxed, was flustered.

Rain’s eyes followed Namgoong Min as he walked down the street.

“The schedule is changed, I have to tail it.”

“Following… are you saying? You don’t even have to do it, lady. We’ll send someone right away.”

“Then what would you say if you got caught? He’s a ＜fortune teller＞ by profession. If you figured out our side by divination, would it be really easy to get closer in the future?”

Lane clearly saw Namgoong Min answering all of Liu Yan’s questions.

When asked what was inside the box or ring, he answered without hesitation, and as Lane, he didn’t know if that was the correct answer or not, but looking at Liu Yan’s extreme reaction, it was clear that it was the correct answer.

It was that much even when there was no tool, but what if you start using fortune tellers’ own tools such as tarot or palgua?

To be honest, the limits of that ability were not easily grasped.

“Are the other ＜Fortune Tellers＞ like that?”

“No. The job ＜Fortune Teller＞ can read divinations as a job skill, but the accuracy rate is so low that it is virtually meaningless. Namgoong Min seems to be an obvious special case.”

“Then it’s decided. Except for you, the rest of the attendants will go back to their respective places. Only the two of us will go after Namgoong-min.”

“If the rest of the manpower follows invisibly from behind…”

“Did you hear what I said? What would you do if you were tailed like that and then caught as a fortune teller and that fortune teller has a bad feeling for Arthur?”

“………….”

It’s unclear, but a fortune teller whose background is currently unconfirmed.

At the time when ‘he’ Liu Yan is desperately investigating, there is no doubt about Namgoong Min’s ability, and he is a person who must be recruited as an ally somehow because of his comprehensive ability of divination.

To the point where it would be better to get rid of it if you’re going to be hostile to it.

“If I was caught tailing you and not you, there is room for an excuse. The way I went by chance was the same, I followed him to talk to him, etc… And since he is also a man, he has no choice but to be attracted to my appearance, so the excuses should be easier. . So get off quickly.”

“……All right.”

The rest of the staff, except for the secretary-class attendant, scattered all over the place at Lane’s words, and she slowly moved her steps with serious eyes.

They don’t get too close together, but they don’t get so far apart that you can’t see them.

Even with this, it was an aptitude for tailing, but Lane used her job skill while maintaining a reasonable distance.

“My lady, is this…?”

“For now, we’ll be invisible, so don’t move too much. If you show signs of fortune-telling, we’ll immediately move the other way. Do you understand?”

“all right.”

Special job, ＜psychic＞.

The job skill of ＜Psychic＞ is to literally implement supernatural powers.

Telekinesis, clairvoyance, invisibility, teleportation, clairvoyance. Being able to use five abilities with one job skill, she has an overwhelming advantage over other jobs.

Of course, there are side effects as well, but at least I didn’t have to worry about it for now.

“……! Enter the alley.”

“Keep chasing.”

“But, lady, the road is narrow and not easily traveled, so there’s no excuse for getting caught.”

“That’s the time.”

Rain’s actions seem rather urgent without proper countermeasures.

The attendant was momentarily taken aback by her unusual behavior, but soon realized the reason.

‘Did you think it was a means to counter Liu Yan? … .’

For a girl named Rain Arthur, Liu Yan’s lifelong rival and nemesis, and her beloved older brother, were the ones she clung to so much.

Personally, Namgoong Min, who embarrasses Liu Yan to Rain, who cherishes Liu Yan, must be a means to obtain.

Then, unlike the boulevards where excuses are available, it is understandable that they move like this without considering the aftermath of being caught in a narrow alley. Especially now that Liu Yan is feverishly repeating the investigation into Namgoong Min as if trying to get his hands on him.

Just before the secretary’s entourage followed the lady into the alley, that moment when he was lost in thought for a very short time.

“……uh?”

The lady she served and Namgoong-min, who had been walking in front of her, had all but disappeared.

*

“…Now, let’s hear the story.”

“Huh? What, what.”

Lane Arthur, who had moved from an alley to an unknown dark space at some point, opened her eyes wide as if embarrassed.

A strange darkness as if covered with blackout curtains, candlesticks that light up the darkness a little, and a fortuneteller sitting at the table in front of her.

Soon after confirming that no entourage was following her, she realized that Namgoong Min, whom she had been chasing, was standing in front of her.

“Were you that b*tch’s nemesis!?”

Concluding that he had been played by Liu Yan, he vented his rage.

It was a legitimate anger on her part. A series of plans flowed in her head that Namgoong-Min and Liu concocted in front of her to make Rain need him, and to deliberately approach him and set him into a trap.

“Ha! It’s rather good, if I distort that proud face and throw it at that b*tch, he’ll even react…!”

Without even thinking about controlling his anger that has risen to the tip of his head, Lane, feeling the joy of harassing the fortune teller, Liu’s boss, activates the ＜Psychic＞ job skill.

I use my telekinesis to lift a nearby candlestick and point the sharp end at him. Candle wax dripping from the end of the candle wets the floor.

“Don’t worry, I’ll just faint you in moderation—“

Right.

“stop.”

“───What?”

When Namgoong-Min sits at the table and snaps his fingers, the candlesticks that float in the air return to their original positions right before stabbing Namgoong-Min.

As if another telekinesis was working, the candlesticks ignored Lane’s telekinesis and turned.

Namgoong Min, who destroyed her superpowers with simple hand gestures, glared at Rain.

“sit down.”

“………….”

Contrary to the usual honorifics, it was a short speech that seemed to press down on the lane.

Rain Arthur, who was tyrannical to the orders of a mere fortuneteller, strong against the weak, irritable, overbearing, proud of his family, tried to stab him with a candlestick just a while ago, and looked down on him to the point of not even remembering his name at first.

“……yes.”

“hurry.”

“yes yes!”

In an instant, he puts on a compliant expression and politely puts his hands together and sits in front of Namgoong Min.

Rain’s attitude changed 180 degrees in an instant, and he shivered with his eyes downcast in a cold sweat.

Seeing this, Namgoong Min twisted his lips.

‘Why did this happen… … .’

It was a self-deprecating laugh.
