by fnovelpiaLin and Mirabelle walking along the street of Vestia.
The two were holding each other’s hands tightly.
Mirabelle’s decision is to deal with Lin immediately if she does anything foolish. She holds Lin’s hand every time they go out.
Lin didn’t refuse either.
In the first place, both Rin and Mirabelle always held Karami’s hand whenever they went out somewhere.
Whoever it is, if I don’t hold their hand now, I feel empty and uneasy.
The two of them happen to be of similar height, so the position of holding hands is suitable, their hands are the size of ferns, and their body temperature is similar. It gives a different sense of stability than when they hold Karami’s hand.
It’s called mutual assistance.
“You said you were going to do the fortune telling, but how are you going to do it?”
Mirabelle is also a witch, so she knows something about fortune telling.
There are several ways to dot.
In the West, there is a method using tarot cards and astrology, which uses celestial positions to tell fortunes.
Or you could draw a witch’s crystal ball or a card with runes written on it.
In the East, there is Hwatu fortune telling, and there is Sajoo Palja using the yin-yang and five elements and the heavenly stems and earthly branches. In addition, there is physiognomy and palm reading. The methods are endless.
“Rin doesn’t know that!”
And Lin hated complicated things.
Young Lin liked things simple.
“Then what are you going to do?”
“Lin will see the eye dot!”
Lin didn’t need any tools, because she could reveal the fate of her target just by looking at him with her eyes.
Thanks to absorbing Cheonho’s power, you can confirm the fate that is likely to occur.
Lin sat down on a mat on a busy street without any preparation. She wrote some words on the sign that Heukbi had provided and hung it around her neck.
-Today’s fortune told by the nine-tailed fox-
1 silver per session.
“I’ll look at your points! Okay, anyone can come!”
Lin sits cross-legged with her arms crossed. She calls out to the crowd with a proud voice.
Mirabelle, who had been staring at it intently, slightly distanced herself.
I don’t know this person.
Time goes by.
No one was there to see the point, which should be taken for granted.
Hilde and Yuhwa put up posters and released people to minimize the danger of the nine-tailed fox, but having goodwill towards them was a different story.
It’s not a plague that you absolutely have to avoid, but it’s something you have to ask yourself, ‘Do I really have to get involved?’ No one paid any attention, just glanced at it.
As no one came, Lin’s confidence rapidly waned. Lin looked at Mirabelle for help.
“What should I do? No one is coming.”
“Did you really think he’d come?”
“Jjuin said that pretty women are the best salespeople just by existing?”
“If the master said so, then there is nothing wrong with the method… .”
Mirabelle was also ignorant of the ways of the world.
How can I attract customers?
The two began to discuss seriously.
“Can’t we just use magic?”
“Lindo knows a magic trick that can charm people!”
Then we can gather people from all over the world, not just Bestia!
When the girls were planning a plan that would have terrified Karami if she had heard it, a shadow fell over Rin’s bedside.
“Oh, first customer? Eh. Seya.”
Lin’s face, which had been bright, suddenly cooled. It wasn’t a guest. The ash-colored mane was the werewolf and the landlord, Seira.
Her outfit has changed a lot since she used to wear office clothes. She is wearing an expensive mink coat, a shiny fur scarf, and even sunglasses.
This is the epitome of a rich family’s wife.
“Hello, Seira.”
Mirabelle bowed politely in greeting. She spends most of her days at the dream park with Rin, but she is living in Seira’s house.
There was no proper place to stay, and he had to keep an eye on Rin. Plus, he had a connection with Karami. The house was in Seira’s name, but he was the one who bought it.
As a Seira who was indebted to Karami, I could take care of at least one of his slaves. Unlike others, she was also very friendly.
Someone looked up and down at Seira’s outfit with narrowed eyes.
“This is not the Seya that Lin knew.”
“You could say that this is the image of a successful person.”
Seira, who became the manager of the cat cafe left behind by Karami, sat on a cushion of money. She had already opened a second branch.
A life of working overtime and dealing with malicious complainants?
Goodbye.
“What are you two doing here?”
“Rin said she wanted to make money by telling fortunes.”
“I want to work hard and earn money!”
“But no one comes.”
“No one is coming!”
“Why won’t it come?”
“Why aren’t you coming?”
“Even if you ask why I’m not coming… .”
This is neither a mat shop nor a street stall. The two pretty girls definitely attract attention, but that’s it.
If it’s a cafe that needs pretty employees, then maybe. People want their fortune tellers to be kind old ladies. Or have a mysterious atmosphere.
The fortune teller’s fortune is a mismatch.
“How about working as an employee at our cafe? You’ll be popular. If you’re not a cat, you can just disguise yourself.”
Seira’s scout who saw through Rin’s marketability.
However, Lin’s mood suddenly drops.
The temperature dropped rapidly.
Passersby freeze like ice for a moment.
“Seira, are you telling Rin to sell her body to anyone like those cats?”
“Sell your body? That’s too much of a leap in interpretation… .”
“Every smile, scent, and even breath that Lin makes is all mine. I won’t give it to anyone. Even Seira can’t forgive that kind of remark.”
The emotions were so intense that the perfect disguise was disrupted. The murderous aura that Rin was exuding matched that of the nine-tailed fox, so Seira swallowed hard.
“I’m sorry. I think my thoughts were short.”
“That’s right. Asking our slaves to please someone other than their master. This time, Seira made a mistake.”
“… Sorry.”
“It’s okay, Seya! People can make mistakes! Lin understands everything!”
Lin returns to her normal self with a bright smile.
Plan an operation with Mirabelle again.
Seira sighs belatedly. Before she knew it, her tail had become wet with cold sweat.
It was so satisfying to see them crouching on the floor and discussing passionately… but I felt like my life was in danger.
“Do you have a separate method in mind?”
“Yes. I use magic to make people come to me unconsciously.”
“It is an infinite loop of meaning that you cannot escape without looking at the dots!”
“Never do this. The country will be turned upside down.”
“ex.”
Seira sighs.
Even if that’s the case for Rin, Mirabelle is acting like that too. Is she still a child? Where did her guardian go leaving her behind?
Of course, Mirabelle had a mother, but in Seira’s eyes, Karami was her protector.
Now that he was gone, I felt like I had to do something. I felt like if I left it like this, something big would happen.
“Let’s do this. Let’s go to our store.”
“Seya… .”
“It’s not like you think. As you know, my cafe is packed with customers. I’m making a place just for Lin Yang there. It’s much better than doing it on the street.”
Lin’s ears perk up at the encouraging comment.
“Everything must be built up from the bottom up. Once word of mouth starts to spread, people will gather wherever you set up shop.”
“Oww.”
“If you’ve organized your thoughts, let’s clean up the place and go. Please put that sign away too.”
The sight of her hanging a sign around her neck is like that of a beggar. On the other hand, Seirani is dressed up in a flashy manner, and people gossip about her as if they are looking at her wicked stepmother whenever they pass by.
“Okay!”
Lin jumped up, folded the mat, took off the sign, and threw it away. Mirabelle used magic to make sure no trash was left behind.
Lin stretched out her arms forcefully.
“Let’s go!”
***
Lin set up a makeshift fortune telling stand outside the cat cafe.
A purple tent was set up to create a mysterious atmosphere. Inside, a table was laid out and Mirabelle and Lin were seated huddled together.
“Is there any tool you use to see the points?”
“Rin doesn’t need that!”
“It’s better to have it even if it’s not there. It may seem like nothing, but people gain trust from small things.”
“Oww.”
Lin summoned a fox bead on the table. The gold and blue fox bead sparkled, creating a dreamy and mysterious atmosphere.
“Then me too… .”
Lin, who had summoned the Grim Reaper, took off only the head and placed it on the corner of the table. When he tapped the crown of its head, a blue light came out faintly from its empty eyes and mouth.
“What is this skeleton…?”
“Is that my dad?”
“… ?”
It was a bit odd, but it helped to give her some form. She was ready after covering her head with the black veil that Seira had provided.
The real business has begun.
As Seira had expected, customers who had visited the cat cafe flocked to the fortune teller… Not that it was a big deal, but people were more interested than before.
“What? A fortune teller suddenly appeared here? Was there something like this before?”
A couple is loitering around their tent.
Even though I hadn’t thought of it this far, fortune tellers are places where couples visit to get their love fortunes read. They are especially popular among women.
Since the cat cafe was also part of Bestia’s noodle date course, the two created exquisite harmony.
“I don’t think it was there before… . I’m curious, should I go in?”
“Should I? Should I go in?”
The first customer has arrived at the magical fox fortune teller’s shop.
They were a new couple.
“Excuse me, I came to see your love fortune.”
“Welcome!”
“Huh? Your voice sounds a little young?”
It looks like it’s going to blow away the first customer.
Lin quickly corrected her voice.
“Gee, it’s because of my mood. Ahem, okay. You came to see my love fortune? ”
“Yes, it’s been 100 days since we started dating. I’m curious about what will happen in the future. Will things be smooth sailing for us from now on?”
“Is it going smoothly?”
“Love fortune telling… Let’s see… … .”
Lin moves her hands around on the marbles. It’s an unnecessary action, but it looks good that way.
With a wave of his hand, he confirms the couple’s fate through the eyes hidden under the veil.
Despite being entangled with the nine-tailed fox, the fragments of their fate were monotonous. This was thanks to Lin’s ability to control her powers.
The fate of the couple confirmed by Lin is….
Pfft!
Lin’s moonlight eye sparkles for a moment.
The fox bead then starts to glow blue. The couple who were looking at the fox bead with excitement lose their focus.
Lin’s magic was an illusion.
“Wait, emergency.”
“Why?”
Mirabelle, who had been watching from behind with her face covered by a veil like Lin, tilted her head.
“This woman. There’s another man.”
“Wow… We’ve had a ton of customers since the beginning.”
What a coincidence, you’re dating a woman who’s cheating on you.
He is an unhappy man.
“But that’s not the end. She lays eggs in this man’s nest and runs away. The man raises her with great care.”
“How could you do that!”
“But it doesn’t end there. The man takes the child he raised and raises the child in a cheating partner’s nest. The man doesn’t even know that and keeps bringing her money.”
“Oh my… .”
New Suin couple.
The female side was a cuckoo.
The men’s side was a goose race.
It’s just a crazy relationship.
“Hey, what should I do?”
“I feel bad for the man.”
“Fate… Shall we twist it just a little?”
“Is that so?”
It’s not about using your power for bad things.
That’s a good thing. I’m sure Karami would appreciate it too.
The two exchanged glances and nodded.
“Because I was saved by Lindo Zhuin.”
“Share the grace you received from the Lord with the poor.”
Let us spread the word of our Master’s greatness.
Two people who are good at killing each other.
Lin twists the fate of the couple.
A man’s misfortune is placed in the woman’s hands, and a woman’s luck is placed in the man’s hands.
Lin, who finished all the work, releases the illusion.
“Huh? What just happened?”
“What just happened?”
When the couple was confused, Lin intervened to make them feel better.
“I’ll tell you your fortune.”
“Oh, what do you think? Our future will be a path of flowers, right?”
“It’s a flower path, right?”
“It is good to punish evil. If you live a good life, good fortune will come to you, and if you live a bad life, misfortune will come to you. Live a good life.”
“This is perfect for us! Good luck will definitely come to you!”
“That’s right… .”
The couple left.
After that, the guests.
“Emergency. You have an incurable disease!”
“It’s a shame to have an incurable disease, so just a little bit… ?”
I’ve been coming here consistently.
“Ouch. My arm is being eaten by the devil!”
“Pa, you need to have arms, so just a little bit… .”
Lin and Mirabelle.
“Falling down the stairs?”
“It hurts when you fall, so a little… ?”
As soon as the guests arrived, their fate was twisted.
As the day came to an end, Seira came back again.
“How was your day? Did it go well?”
“Ah, that was perfect. Lin, you are truly a saint.”
“It was a rewarding day. I learned what kind of heart the Master has in saving our slaves.”
“… ?”
Why are you bragging about being a saint and saving me when I’m just doing fortune telling?
Although it was unsettling, Sayra had no way of knowing what they were doing.
And the next day.
“Is this that fortune teller? The place where fortune telling brings good luck?”
“That’s right? Yesterday, a hound wolf almost ripped my arm off, and I heard he went away crying because he had a cavity?”
“I slipped on the stairs and my clothes got caught on the handrail, so I survived. I almost rolled down the stairs, what the heck?”
The crowds were so large that they filled the streets.
Even when cat cafes were popular, it wasn’t like this.
Seira looks at Mirabelle and Rin standing side by side.
“What the hell have you guys done?”
“Good deeds… .”
“Lin was just doing a good deed… .”
The mischievous girls turned their heads and avoided eye contact.
