“Ah, no! I’ll decide! There’s something I want to know!”

To avoid being swayed by her flow, Siwoo put strength in his voice and spoke informally.

Seeming briefly surprised by his momentum, she widened her eyes, but soon returned to her expression and lightly smiled with her eyes.

“Yes~ Then please tell me. What do you want to know~?”

She looked into Siwoo’s eyes with a calm tone and asked.

Her eyes, as clear and transparent as clean water, gave him the feeling that he would be sucked into them at any moment.

“Um… if you came from the magic academy, you also know about the head teacher there… right?”

Siwoo hesitated slightly, but spoke as if there was no turning back.

“Ms. Yuna Yoo? Of course~ No one who goes to the magic academy is unrelated to Ms. Yuna Yoo…”

She continued, still looking at Siwoo with clear and calm eyes.

Her gaze was quietly holding Siwoo, as if seeing through the depths of his heart.

“Oh, really? No one is unrelated?”

Siwoo, as if trying to grasp the hidden meaning in her ambiguous words, scrutinized her expression and asked again.

“Of course~ No one is unrelated! You must have gone before, too, right? Magic academy guardian interview~”

She said with a deliberate smile, as if it were obvious, while looking directly into Siwoo’s eyes.

“Huh?”

Siwoo, caught in a moment of silence, reacted with embarrassment.

Siwoo felt as though his relationship with Ms. Yuna Yoo, which he somehow felt he should keep secret, had been revealed.

“You’re Seyoung’s brother, right? I’ve heard a lot from Seyoung~ Hehet!”

The girl openly revealed her friendship with Seyoung and spoke as if she was familiar with Siwoo as well.

“Ah… so you’re, Seyoung’s friend? You seem pretty close? To have heard stories about me…”

Siwoo carefully suppressed the end of his words, trying to gauge how much she knew.

Within him, a fear of even his relationship with his family being exposed permeated even before his words.

“We are close~ I don’t know if we are ‘friends’ though… not anymore… hehe~”

She tilted her head slightly to the side and smiled.

Her tone was playful, yet it seemed to draw a subtle line somewhere.

Everything she was saying sounded like a joke, but it contained a lingering feeling that was anything but light.

Siwoo felt as though his earlobes reacted before his head to her words that she didn’t know if they were friends anymore.

“What?”

Siwoo paused, as if realizing at some point that he had stepped over an unintended boundary.

She glanced at the teacher who was supervising her.

After confirming that the teacher was looking the other way, she turned her head back and leaned towards Siwoo.

“If you’re the younger sibling of the person who will become Mom’s owner, I don’t know what to call you… hehe~”

She leaned deeply towards Siwoo and spoke in a small whisper.

A surging current coursed through his spine and spread throughout his body.

Siwoo’s massive penis, like the back of a whale rising from the abyss, convulsed as it pushed against the covering clothes and blanket.

Siwoo’s penis was throbbing so much that it felt as if he was ejaculating…

He didn’t know who her mother was, but the person who would become her mother’s owner was definitely referring to Siwoo.

So, would this girl also become his possession someday? Siwoo wondered…

Siwoo was no longer even thinking about covering his penis with his arm.

That sight would definitely be visible to her sitting across from him.

“You don’t want to know about that, do you~?”

She made a blank expression as if she was dumbfounded and asked Siwoo, who had a throbbing penis, in a playful tone.

“Huh? Uh! N, no…”

Siwoo, unable to hide his embarrassment, barely turned the thin breath lingering at the end of his lips into words.

“Then tell me what you want to know~ I’ll use tarot cards to find out the secrets you’re curious about~!”

She raised the corners of her lips and spoke while sending Siwoo a subtly provocative look.

**

Siwoo slowly calms his breathing.

And he tries to convey the questions he had organized in his head to her.

After moistening his dry lips with saliva, Siwoo opens his mouth.

“Why did Ms. Yuna Yoo approach me and my family without revealing her identity?”

“Why did she try to introduce this world to us in such a cumbersome way?”

“What does Ms. Yuna Yoo really want from me?”

Siwoo asks, looking straight into her eyes with slow but clear pronunciation.

She does not avoid Siwoo’s gaze, but looks back at Siwoo as if reading his mind.

A moment of silence descended between them like a cold air.

“You want to know Ms. Yuna Yoo’s true feelings, right?”

She organized Siwoo’s question and turned it into a sentence suitable for a tarot card reading.

Siwoo silently shut his lips tightly and nodded.

She repeatedly inhaled and exhaled as if she was slightly out of breath, and arranged the cards in her hands as if tidying up the space.

“While I’m shuffling the cards, keep the question you just asked in your mind. So that the feeling can permeate the cards…”

“Depending on the question, the order in which the tarot cards are read, the way they are interpreted, and the meaning all change… so please concentrate.”

She spoke while shuffling the cards finely with plausible comments and familiar hand movements.

The sound of the cards gently flowing from her fingertips spread softly across the table.

“Actually, the answer may have already been decided before we even asked.”

Her voice continued in a low and clear tone, like a spell to begin the ritual.

“Even small choices that seem like coincidences eventually connect into one story when they are laid out on the table~”

She shuffled the last card and gently spread them out on the table.

The coated cards, spread out in an arc on the table, shone subtly in the light of the ceiling lights.

“Okay! Pick three cards with your left hand and place them in order from left to right. Don’t flip them over, just leave them as they are!”

Then she told Siwoo to pick a card.

Although it was a youthful voice, it contained a mysterious calmness, persuasiveness, and credibility.

Siwoo hesitated for a moment and extended his left hand forward in a posture as if he was slightly grasping the air.

With his palm open and floating in the air, Siwoo gently brushed over the cards.

The lined cards were all flipped over with the same pattern, but somehow they seemed to emit different auras.

Following the sensation felt at his fingertips, Siwoo picked out the cards one by one as if led by fate.

Slowly, as if handling delicate pieces of glass, Siwoo carefully picked up the cards.

Then, he pulled the cards he had picked out towards himself and lined them up in order from left to right.

“Then I’ll interpret them one by one~ Starting from the left!”

“The card on the left will tell you the situation you are in now.”

She reached out and flipped the card on Siwoo’s left to the side.

On the flipped card, an emperor sitting on a huge throne was drawn upside down.

The emperor’s face in the picture showed a firm determination and resoluteness, and in his hand was a golden staff that seemed to symbolize power.

Behind the throne, a mountain could be seen towering against a red sky.

“This is the Emperor card. It holds the meaning of stability, power, and strength. It is a card that symbolizes a strong leader, a solid power that controls everything.”

“But the card is flipped over? The Emperor card in reverse means a situation where power has collapsed and the position has not been maintained, resulting in instability.”

“You lose control and are swayed by the flow of the world.”

Siwoo looks at her and the card alternately with a surprised expression.

He replayed the stories he had vaguely heard from Sejin’s older sister, and briefly thought that the meaning of the card and his situation seemed to coincide strangely.

She then flips the middle card to the side.

“The Devil card, and it’s also in reverse?”

She was explaining as if confirming the state of the flipped card.

Siwoo inadvertently swallowed as he saw two figures chained up and hanging their heads under a dark being drawn upside down.

“The card in the middle is a card that tells you how to protect or escape the situation shown in the first card.”

“Or it may contain hints about the trials you will face in the process.”

“The Devil card means desire, obsession, and bondage. When it’s upright, it means you are trapped in that temptation yourself…”

“When it’s in reverse, it represents a choice to break free from that cycle… or an unconscious resistance. Haa-”

She exhaled a short breath like a sigh and continued.

“But such liberation always comes with a fatal price. Because you have to decide who to sacrifice and what to choose, and in the end you have to make a decision that you can accept.”

After uttering those meaningful words, she looked at Siwoo and stopped the movement of her gaze.
