fortune-telling
Elena and Leonard were the only two people in the room.
Elena used the pen and paper she brought with her to write down the part of the story that Lord Glenn didn't know about. It was about how she accidentally fell from the dangerous cave, landed in the dangerous deep water and lava area, and in fear, she directly opened the space to cross back to the Viscount's Mansion.
She didn't dare to speak directly because she was afraid of being overheard. This was a demigod's manor, not an ordinary aristocratic manor. Both the owner and the guests living in the manor were powerful people of high status. As long as she spoke, it was very likely that others would hear her. Moreover, there must be various arrangements in this manor that were difficult to detect and guard against. Conversations would very likely be recorded, so it was better to be careful and communicate with pen and paper.
In fact, using pen and paper is not very safe, but it will do. Elena can only choose to use keywords to give a simple description.
Leonard's expression kept changing as the content on the paper increased. Finally, he frowned tightly and looked at Elena with disapproval.
"You're taking too much of a risk."
Elena admitted her mistake honestly and lowered her head: "I know I was wrong."
"You know you're wrong? Then do you know how to change?" Leonard asked.
Elena blinked at this question, tilted her head and raised it: "Should I do a fortune-telling before taking action?"
Even Lord Glenn has to do divination before taking any action, which shows how important divination is. She also has to develop this habit. She must do divination before encountering any problems and avoid them as soon as possible.
Leonard hummed softly: "Anything else?"
And? Elena's beautiful long eyebrows knitted together.
"Should I be more obedient and not move around?" Elena asked uncertainly. Her biggest mistake was not listening to Lord Glenn. She didn't stand still but wanted to find a seat to sit on, and then she unfortunately sat on the hole.
Leonard raised his hand and hit his head.
"Ouch." Elena covered her forehead and screamed, "What are you doing!"
"You shouldn't have agreed to follow Lord Glenn around!" Leonard was very disappointed.
Elena was stunned, then looked at him with confused eyes: "Isn't Lord Glenn your idol?"
As a fan, you actually stepped on your idol?
So you are a hater?
Leonard: "...You should have called me."
Elena was speechless: "But I didn't know we would go to Snow Ridge beforehand, let alone that it would be so dangerous."
Leonard was so angry that he wanted to give her another blow on the head.
Elena quickly dodged.
Leonard shouted angrily, "You should have called me when you were in the magic market. If I had been with you and protected you, how could you have wandered off and gotten into danger?"
Elena covered her forehead carefully while retorting fearlessly: "If you went, you would definitely go down with Lord Glenn. In the end, I would still be alone."
"Nonsense, I wouldn't do that," Leonard retorted.
"Nonsense, you definitely will." Elena was firm.
"I won't!"
"You will!"
The two of them were just elementary school kids, bickering with each other and causing chaos.
The butler came back and stood by the door. Hearing the "laughter and playfulness" in the room, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
What a lively couple.
Knock knock knock, the housekeeper knocked on the door.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Leonard opened the door: "What's going on?"
The butler bowed slightly and said, "Master Glenn asks Miss Elena to come over for a fortune-telling."
Elena popped her head out from behind Leonard: "Okay, I'll be right there."
Led by the housekeeper, Elena and Leonard came to the place where divination was performed. This was the place where the manor's resident guest, the great wizard Derrick, lived.
A large crystal ball was placed in the middle of the room, with sunlight falling from the roof and hitting the crystal ball. The crystal ball looked exceptionally bright and dazzling under the sunlight.
Lord Glenn stood with a bearded old man in a white wizard robe.
After Elena and Leonard came in, they saluted the two respectively.
Lord Glenn said to Elena, "This is Archmage Derrick, who is good at divination."
Elena was about to salute.
The bearded Archmage Derrick smiled at Elena and said, "Time is of the essence. Forget about these formalities. Put your hand on the crystal ball."
This is a very straightforward and decisive person.
Elena nodded and placed her hands on the crystal ball obediently.
There was white mist inside the crystal ball, and it was so foggy that nothing could be seen.
Archmage Derrick stared at the crystal ball.
Elena stared at Archmage Derrick closely, she was very nervous.
After more than ten minutes, the white mist inside the crystal ball gradually dissipated, and the crystal ball became transparent again.
Elena, Leonard, and Lord Glenn all looked at Archmage Derrick, waiting for his divination results.
Archmage Derrick looked at Elena.
Elena was so nervous that she could hardly breathe. The expression on Archmage Derrick's face at this moment was very similar to the expression on her face when the head teacher was about to give her an evaluation on the spot in front of her father and her during a home visit at school.
I was hesitant and complicated. I wanted to tell the truth, but I couldn't ignore the students' psychology. I was carefully considering whether to give an appropriate and fitting comment.
Ahhhh, poor students are most afraid of moments like this.
"Master, please give me a result. I'm so scared." Elena couldn't hold it in any longer and begged for mercy.
Archmage Derrick hesitated before finally speaking, "This is a very dangerous matter for you. You are likely to fail because you are facing unpredictable dangers. However, I cannot offer you any help."
Elena pursed her lips tightly, her face pale.
Leonard held her slender shoulders worriedly.
Archmage Derrick continued, "But if you pass this test of fate, you may gain a great benefit."
Elena bit her nails nervously.
The three people looked at Archmage Derrick, waiting for his next words.
Archmage Derrick: "I'm done."
Leonard immediately looked at Elena: "You heard it, the divination result is very dangerous, don't take the risk."
Elena took a deep breath and continued to bite her fingernails. Accidentally, she tore a corner of her fingernail.
Elena looked at her torn fingernails and felt even worse.
Isn't this also a warning?
Elena looked up at Master Glenn.
Lord Glenn remained silent, but when Elena looked at him, he spoke.
“Elena, this is not your responsibility, you don’t have to force yourself.”
Lord Glenn's words were like a warm spring breeze, soothing Elena's anxiety.
Elena smiled lightly and said, "Lord Glenn, I want to think about this quietly by myself."
Lord Glenn: "Okay."
Elena turned to leave.
"Elena, you really don't have to force yourself." Lord Glenn emphasized again.
Elena looked back and smiled: "I know."
After watching Elena leave, Leonard turned to face Lord Glenn.
"Lord Glenn, I think it's necessary to inform Dean Patrick about this matter. The Dean is very knowledgeable, and perhaps he can give some guidance."
Dean Patrick has always been a scholar. He reads a lot of books, has extensive research, and has a neutral stance. He is a good consultant.
Lord Glenn nodded and said, "I'll go get Dean Patrick."
"Let me go." Leonard took the initiative.
Royal School of Magic.
The dean met with Leonard and learned from him that a sinkhole suddenly appeared in the snow ridge. There was a mysterious and dangerous hole at the bottom of the sinkhole. Several knight teams disappeared one after another. Lord Glenn met Elena according to divination. Elena had a magical and real dream, and there was a strange boulder at the end of the underground passage.
These things aroused great interest in the dean.
"Okay, I'll go with you and take a look."
Elena sat alone in the quiet room.
Snap, a snap of fingers.
Elena was using her "destiny prediction" skill. The divination results of Master Derrick were too vague, so she didn't quite believe it and decided to do it herself.
Alas, in the end you still have to rely on yourself.
The scene unfolds and Elena comes to the underground passage again.
Three men were standing in the small passage, which looked particularly cramped and crowded. Lord Glenn, Leonard, and the dean were talking facing the boulder.
Hey, the dean is here too?
Elena controlled the perspective and flew forward.
The perspective of the picture was difficult to control, and Elena accidentally passed the three people and crashed into the boulder.
Everything went dark before her eyes, and Elena fell out of the divination state.
Elena was unwilling to give up and immediately snapped her fingers again.
The scene reappeared, still in the underground passage, but this time there were four people in front of the boulder.
Huh? Who's there? It's her!
Elena had just realized that the extra person was herself, and her perspective suddenly flew uncontrollably towards "her", and she instantly possessed "her".
The feeling of possession is like being awake in a dream.
She can receive all of "her" senses, see what "she" sees, and hear what "she" hears.
"Elena, you must be careful and don't act rashly." The dean's voice came.
Don't be too aggressive?
What should I not do?
Before Elena could figure out what was happening, her body was already moving uncontrollably towards the boulder.
What's going on?
Everything went dark before her eyes, and Elena fell out of the divination state again.
???
Several big question marks popped up in Elena's head.
No, why is the foretelling of fate so strange this time?
Wasn't she possessed? Even if possessed, she couldn't control her own behavior?
And what exactly was she going to do? When the dean said not to rush into anything, what did he mean by not letting her rush into anything?
The most important thing is, why did she go offline again?
This is not normal. This time, including the last time, the time for predicting fate was too short on both occasions. It has never been so short before.
Elena was already in a bad mood, and she had only calmed down temporarily just now. However, the two fate predictions did not go well, which aroused Elena's emotions again. She walked around the room irritably. For a moment, she wanted to say goodbye and leave.
Rubbing her face and taking deep breaths, Elena controlled her emotions and tried to calm down.
She wanted to try again. She didn't believe she would be so unlucky. She would definitely get something the third time.
Snap, Elena snapped her fingers again.
This time the scene shows "her" walking towards the boulder, and then she is disconnected again.
But this time she did gain something.
She didn't just go offline when her vision went black. The last thing she saw was a huge fireball coming towards her, and she was killed by the fireball.
