"Cursed since birth?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's conclusion, Kuang San was obviously very surprised.
"Is this kind of thing... possible?"
"certainly."
Looking at Kuang San, Fang Zheng nodded.
"Destiny is invisible, but it does exist. A good enough prophecy wizard can infer when a person will have a child through his fate. This is not surprising. Well... what's important is what he does with the child."
"I don't... quite understand what you mean."
Kuang San glanced at the fishing rod in her hand which was motionless, and then looked at Hu Tao who was cheering and catching a fish not far away.
Fang Zheng smiled slightly.
"Kuang San, do you know anything about organ transplantation?"
"Of course I know that."
Before she was transformed into an elf, Kurumi was also an ordinary human. The technology in the elf world is quite advanced, so she is no stranger to organ transplantation.
"Organ transplantation is essentially replacing failing, unusable organs with good ones, such as heart transplantation and kidney transplantation. Destiny transplantation is actually a similar concept."
"Destiny... transplant?"
"That's right."
Hearing Kuang San's question, Fang Zheng nodded. She swung her twin ponytails and glanced at the cabin.
"I just checked Katie's fate. Someone took away all the good luck in her life and replaced it with bad luck."
Speaking of this, Fang Zheng's tone was also solemn.
As a prophecy mage, even though he had not received formal education, Fang Zheng knew that this was against the rules. Prophecy mages predict fate and change fate. This is all normal, but there is a very important core, that is, fate is like waves, with ups and downs. You can never expect to only encounter good things and no bad things. Creatures like the European Emperor are very rare. If you really encounter one, it is a blessing from God, and you can't be jealous.
But if you artificially change your destiny, that’s another matter.
More importantly, fate has inertia.
If a person has good luck, then his fate will get better and better. If he has bad luck, then his fate will get worse and worse.
This is actually very easy to understand. After all, if a person is frequently sick or injured, being able to live safely past the age of fifty is already a blessing from the goddess.
Fang Zheng hadn't noticed it before, but after observing Katie's fate, he realized something was wrong.
Thinking carefully, it was the same as the last time she did the mission. There were so many trial missions that time, but Katie and her friends happened to encounter the most dangerous one. Although everything went well in the end, if you think about it carefully, there are black dragons, undead, dark elves, and the Underdark. If Fang Zheng hadn't been there, Katie's chance of survival would have been infinitely reduced.
This time was no exception. Fang Zheng and Kuang San completely overwhelmed Katie with their strength and overcame her misfortune. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't be so lucky.
Judging from Katie's usual timidity and the fact that she always says she "doesn't like other people paying attention to her", her bad luck obviously didn't start now.
If the thread of fate is compared to a fishing line, then bad luck is the stone, sinking into the water when the line is pulled, and good luck is the balloon, floating into the sky when the line is hung.
If you fly too high, then even if you are unlucky occasionally and the line of fate sinks a little, you will at most be in the range of ordinary people.
But on the other hand, if you sink too deep into the water, even if you have good luck, it is still bad luck - it's just a matter of the degree of bad luck.
“Is there a solution?”
"Yes, but I don't want to alert the enemy for the time being."
Fang Zheng has now touched the edge of the ninth-level prophecy spell. Although he has not studied prophecy spells in depth, it is not difficult for him to solve Katie's problem. But the problem is that this kind of thing is mutual. The one who took away Katie's good luck must be a prophecy mage who specializes in fate. If Fang Zheng takes action, the other party will definitely notice it unless he is dead.
Fang Zheng's current target is the group of lunatics on the Day of Destruction. He does not want to create unnecessary trouble. It will not be too late to cause trouble for them after the matter is settled.
The following period of time was just as Fang Zheng had expected, with constant troubles.
The howling storm came towards them, hitting the deck like a wash of water. Most of the passengers had already returned to the cabins, and only the sailors were still busy outside.
"Damn, why is there such a heavy rain?"
The second mate wiped the rain off his face and directed the others to try their best to stabilize the boat. Although they had tried their best, the whole ship was still like a fallen leaf in the wind and rain, being pushed to the top of the waves from time to time, and then falling to the bottom...
“Bang!!”
The hatch opened and then slammed shut, shutting the rain out. Soon, two soaking wet crew members came in, complaining as they walked.
"Damn, why is the storm so severe this time? I've been flying this route for decades, and this is the first time I've encountered such heavy rain."
"Is this ship going to sink?"
"Bah, bah, bah, stop talking nonsense, how could it possibly sink!"
Hearing the faint voices of the crew coming from the crack of the door, Fang Zheng and Kuang San looked at each other, and then looked at Katie who was curled up in a corner not far away. Kuang San blinked and leaned close to Fang Zheng's ear.
"You don't mean to say..."
"That's probably it... I'll go and take care of this trouble."
Fang Zheng sighed, then stood up and walked out of the cabin. She looked around and after making sure that there was no one around, a flash of light appeared beside her. The next moment, Fang Zheng disappeared from the cabin and appeared in the sky tens of thousands of meters high. Under her, she could clearly see the dark clouds rolling like a whirlpool, with thunder and lightning coming from time to time.
"Come out, Fire's Joy!"
Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and summoned a bright red sword from his headband. He then gripped the sword tightly with both hands, stared at the rain clouds in front of him, took a deep breath, and then raised the sword high. Soon, scorching flames appeared out of thin air and exploded.
“Haa ...
Then, Fang Zheng roared and slashed with his sword.
Following Fang Zheng's attack, the dense and heavy rain clouds beneath her were instantly torn open like cotton, and a huge gap appeared. The roaring sword energy whistled past from both sides. In just a blink of an eye, the rain clouds covering the entire sea area were swept away. Fang Zheng glanced around and confirmed that there was no problem. Then he flashed back to the boat again.
Then, just when she was teleported back, Fang Zheng heard the sailor's screams and cries for help again.
"Oh no! The bottom of the boat is leaking!"
“…”
Hearing the screams below and the sailors running around not far away, Fang Zheng silently took out the Whispering Chapter...
To be honest, Fang Zheng thought it was a miracle that Katie had lived to this age intact.
