“…Madam Ch’en, there’s a bit of a problem with your lot,” Chen Heng said to Ch’en after thinking for a while.
“That is your explanation for the lot I drew? Very well, co back to the Lungn Guard Departnt with .” As Ch’en spoke, she took out the handcuffs again.
“Wait! Wait! Madam Ch’en, do you enjoy holding the handcuffs that much? Aren’t you tired from holding them? Furthermore, I did not say I could not explain it. However, do you really want to hear the divination?”
“What nonsense is this? You said it earlier; you would return to the Lungn Guard Departnt with if you were wrong. Don’t tell you regret it. You don’t even dare to tell the divination. Just co back with now.”
“This divination says that Madam Ch’en is actually an Infected. Furthermore, you will clash with the Reunion Movent’s leader, Talulah. Even stranger is that this showed you are half-sisters with the sa mother as that tyrant. Don’t you think it is funny? Perhaps I should use a different divination thod with you,” Chen Heng whispered so softly that only he and Ch’en could hear.
Efreet: He Who Knows Fate made a ridiculous move!
Kal’tsit: Let’s see how he’ll get out of it if Ch’en concludes he’s a spy or a person with a sche.
Kal’tsit did not show any particular objections to Chen Heng setting up a divination stall. As long as he did not cause any major problems in her world, she would be satisfied.
“…” Ch’en did not refute Chen Heng’s words. Instead, she slowly shifted her hand to her sword.
“Damn! Madam Ch’en, don’t remain silent. You are making flustered like this. Also, don’t draw your sword. What are you thinking of doing? You’re in public.”
Although Chen Heng sounded shocked and flustered, his face was blank, as if he was just woodenly following a script.
“What is your aim? How did you know all this?” Ch’en also realized they were in public, so she removed her hand from her sword’s hilt. No matter what, Chen Heng had only spoken the truth; she had no reason to attack him.
“My divination was right, right? In that case, Madam Ch’en, please pay one LMD. Wait, that’s not right. I said it was free earlier. Never mind. Never mind. I’ll not charge this ti. Co on, Madam Ch’en. Have a seat.”
Chen Heng returned to his seat before extending his hand to invite Ch’en to sit across from him.
“Speak. What do you want?”
“No, no, no. I don’t want anything at all. I just don’t want you to bring to the Lungn Guard Departnt. This is just the divination that I did for you.”
“Alright. Stop using these things used to fool kids to fool .” Ch’en did not believe Chen Heng’s nonsense.
“You don’t believe , right? Then do you believe lightning will strike in three seconds?”
“Such things…”
Boom! A large lightning bolt tore across the sky before Ch’en finished speaking. Then ear-splitting thunder roared.
“…”
“How about that? Do you believe now? How about I divine your future?”
“…Since you say I will clash with Talulah, that…”
“Wait. This divination is not free. Paynt first: one LMD.”
Chen Heng interrupted Ch’en’s question. This ti, he was not doing it for free.
Ch’en took out a note from her pocket and handed it to Chen Heng.
“We can start the divination now, right?”
“Of course, we can. Madam Ch’en, do you want to know when you will get married? Or do you want the location of your destined one? Or do you want to know how to make your romance life go more smoothly?”
“You! Are you ssing with ?” Ch’en shifted her right hand back to the sword on her left waist. Of course, this was not Chi Xiao but an ordinary Lungn Guard Departnt standard-issue weapon.
[TL Note: Chi Xiao is the na of Ch’en’s sword. Its na ans crimson firmant. It previously belonged to Wei Yenwu and is made from tempered Originium, which allows the user to unleash a powerful Originium Art attack even if they cannot use Originium Arts.]
“Madam Ch’en, don’t slander . Please look up and see what’s on my banner!” Chen Heng pointed to the banner above him.
Ch’en looked at where Chen Heng pointed. That banner had “Love Consultant.”
“He Who Knows Fate, you should know what I want to ask.” This ti, Ch’en sounded even harsher.
“Of course, I know. Furthermore, I also know how Talulah will take revenge on Lungn. However, that is not within my service scope today.”
“So, are you speaking or not?” Ch’en could no longer hold back. Although she was usually a calm person, Chen Heng’s words affected not just herself and Talulah but even Lungn.
Ch’en stood up and slamd her hand on the table before her.
“You will need to pay more. Also, Madam Ch’en, please be more gentle. The table and the tools on it are very expensive. Added together, they are worth 100,000 LMD.”
Ten points could buy 1,000,000 LMD, so one point was 100,000 LMD. This claim made sense. Of course, LMD was a limited-purchase item; that was why he found LMD strangely cheap.
“…” Chen Heng’s words stunned Ch’en. She looked at the table she had smacked and released her bated breath only after finding no damage.
“What do you think? Do you want a divination? I can tell you that this matter will involve the entire Lungn, and the damage will be severe.”
“Speak. How much do you want?”
“A piano.”
“A piano?”
“That’s right. Worth 1,800,000 LMD.”
“What did you say? Why don’t you go rob soone instead? How could a piano cost 1,800,000 LMD? Screw this!” Hearing this price enraged Ch’en. She slamd her palm on the table before her again.
“Please mind the table and the tools on it. They are worth 100,000 LMD. Do be careful. Furthermore, how could robbery be faster than divination for earning money? Moreover, robbery is illegal. As for pianos, you can try asking your colleague, that wealthy one. See if there are any pianos worth 1,800,000 LMD. How about this? If your colleague says there are no pianos worth 1,800,000 LMD, I’ll do this divination for free.”
“You said it. I’ll make the call now. I don’t believe there is a piano worth 1,800,000 LMD.” Ch’en moved her hand from the table, then released a bated breath again when she saw this 100,000 LMD table undamaged. Others aside, this table was indeed sturdy.
Then Ch’en walked to the side and called her rich colleague.
Kal’tsit: He Who Knows Fate, what are you trying to do?
He Who Knows Fate: Give you an assist.
Kal’tsit: …
