The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 261 - Divination

"See you later!!"

"Farewell, Dark Lord and his subordinates."

The Lanny group and Alea were bidding farewell to Souta and the rest. Alea was here because they met her after the fireworks. She joined their group and became their guide in this empire. She knew a lot of things in this empire so they found the things that Souta didn’t find when they were touring around.

Everyone was happy so it was fine but... something was bothering him. Souta was bothered by one thing and that their last stop. It was ominous. He could clearly remember everything that happened in that closed room.

"Later," Souta said while glancing at Alea. The carriage moved forwards and grew farther away from the empire. They were the bodyguards of this carriage as they took this escort quest before they left.

"My lady, they left." The butler said to princess Alea.

"Yeah, the Dark Lord. All of them are going to face calamities soon. They are standing in a thread that could snap out at any moment." Alea said as she recalled what happened at night.

"We couldn’t see everything because of the rules. We’re going to suffer consequences if we tried to peek again." Alea said before she closed her eyes. "Furthermore, she couldn’t see anything. Her condition grew worse after seeing them. It seems that her powers are taking a huge toll on her body."

"Why did you let them meet her, my lady?" The butler asked Alea in a polite tone.

"At first, I was just curious in their group but after observing them for a few days I found that they are moving forwards at a faster rate," Alea said in a deep tone.

"What do you mean, my lady?" The butler asked.

"I couldn’t say it but you will know what I mean in the future. This is the third time we saw people like them this year." Alea said.

"The first is Gandy and the second is Randolf’s group." The butler said as he recalled those people.

"Oh, right? I forgot that Dark Lord is the one who held the sins using monster potions. News about it is circulating but I think that they will face it soon." Alea said as she placed her index finger in her lower mouth.

"It’s bad. Too bad."

...

Souta was sitting inside the carriage with his comrades. They were all silent as all of them were thinking about yesterday night.

Alea brought them to meet a woman. That woman had to power of divination. He was stunned when he heard that the woman had that kind of power.

"You can enter the room one by one. The power of lady fortuna is limited. The darkness is too strong for her so be careful. So who’s going to enter the room first?" Alea looked at them.

"Me!" Bryan raised his hand before he asked while tilting his head. "But what should I do inside?"

"Just follow lady fortuna’s word and she will show you the right path of the brave ones," Alea answered his question.

Bryan entered the room and saw a beautiful woman with long black hair. The woman was wearing a black robe and her eyes were all white. It seems that she was blind.

"Hello, are you blind?" Bryan asked the obvious question as he sat in the vacant seat in front of the woman.

The woman ignored him as she muttered words that Bryan couldn’t understand.

"What? I can’t understand it. Speak in a language that I can understand." Bryan said while scratching his cheek. He didn’t know how to talk to this woman who was saying something that he couldn’t understand.

After a while, the woman lifted her head and she had a stunned expression on her face. She slowly opened her mouth and said in a coarse voice, "Y-You should be careful... You already meet them and they are going to notice you... soon... but someone’s changing everything... be careful."

"Oh! So you know our language. That’s great. I’m Bryan Dagruel, an adventurer." Bryan smiled and introduced himself.

"Everything changes. You shouldn’t come here. It’s bad just be careful on your way." The lady said in a deep tone before she coughed heavily.

Souta was waiting outside the room along with his comrades. He couldn’t hear and sense anything inside the room. He didn’t have any idea what’s happening but he felt bad about this. His instinct was telling him that it was a bad news.

After a while, Bryan came out of the room while scratching the back of his head. "Oh man, I couldn’t understand that lady. She’s saying weird things about me."

The next one who entered the room was Brando.

Brando sat in front of the woman. He looked at her white eyes curiously. He didn’t say anything as the woman was chanting some strange spell. He could feel the strange atmosphere of this room.

After a while, the woman stopped chanting and said, "It’s the same. A small turtle without shell running around getting devoured by a black monster. Be careful... You should find some trustworthy friends."

"Hmm... What do you mean by that?" Brando asked the woman.

"Just like the person before. Your destiny is shifting to the part that I couldn’t see. You should’ve died but you survived so I don’t know what will happen to you." The woman said.

’Person before? Bryan... This woman is looking at our destiny. I couldn’t trust her words but still, I couldn’t refute her words.’ Brando thought. There’s a lot of people that have divination ability but most of them were frauds.

After Brando, Lumilia entered the room. She already had an idea of what’s happening here because of Brando. She wasn’t excited because she thought that it was the same as the last one that she met. Powers like this weren’t trustworthy. It’s full of holes but well it’s not bad listening to some of it so she might get along with it.

"You’ll receive everything from him. Money, fame, honor, and power." The woman suddenly said.

"Huh?" Lumilia was confused as she tilted her head.

"Accept him or denied him. Kill him or save him." The woman said.

"What do you mean? Who’s him?" Lumilia asked.

"I don’t know the answer to that question. I’m not omniscient. My abilities are limited. It’s just a clue from countless future paths." The woman said while shaking her head.

"It’s okay, I didn’t expect anything from coming here. Still, thank you for giving me some words." Lumilia stood up and bowed her head in front of the woman. She then left the room while thinking about the words of the woman.

As soon as she left the room, she glanced at Souta. The first thing that came to her mind was him.

’Kill him or save him?’ Lumilia thought before she shook her head.

Lynn was the next person that entered the room. She’s the type of person who believes in this kind of thing so she’s quite excited, unlike the three people that enter first.

’I see... They don’t have any idea that there were people in the past that have that kind of power. The power to look in the future.’ Souta thought while looking at their reaction.

The information about that clan was lost and only a few people in this world know that they existed in the past. The information about twenty thousand years ago was few. So it was natural that Lumilia and the rest didn’t know about it.

Souta got to know it because of Cl.u.s.ter. He didn’t even know about that clan if she didn’t tell him about it.

Inside the room, Lynn was sitting while looking at the blind woman who was muttering words that she couldn’t understand.

"Your end is near. You’ll only suffer if you don’t leave this world." The woman said.

Lynn tilted her head with a confused look on her face. ’My end is near? I will die.’ She thought.

"He needs you."

"Um... Are you talking about Souta? I don’t know if he needs me... b-but if that’s the case then I will gladly lend him my hand." Lynn said as she smiled gently. She will not hesitate to help Souta if he was in trouble.

"You will not get anything from him."

"I know... I’m not asking for anything. I just want to stay beside him and that’s enough for me." Lynn said as she pressed her hand in her chest. She knows it herself that she just an ordinary person with no special ability that’s why... She’s fine if she could just stand beside him.

...

After Lynn, Souta entered the room. The woman opened her eyes widely when Souta sat in front of her.

Souta looked around the room. The atmosphere in this closed room was completely different. He felt countless eyes looking at him and it’s making him shivered.

There’s some sort of invisible pressure around the woman. It was different from powerful people that he knew. Different from the pressure that the six-circle officer emitted.

"You!! You’re darkness itself... I couldn’t see anything but there are countless strings of fate around you connecting to the people of this world." The woman said with a surprised tone.

"I don’t care about that. Future can be change but I want to ask your name. You know Alea wouldn’t tell me your name no matter how much I asked her." Souta said as he ignored the woman’s words. Listening to Bryan and Brando’s words, the words of this woman were too vague.

He already proved the future can be changed. He knew the future because of the game but it was slowly changing because of his actions.

"Me? You don’t need to know someone as insignificant as myself." The woman said.

"Tsk! Then, do you know the surname Ieshi?" Souta clicked his tongue in annoyance and asked.

"I don’t know such thing. I’m just a simple woman that has the power of divination." The woman shook her head.

"Useless... Can you give me a more detailed explanation like this country will be attacked by the ten great bandit gang?" Souta asked her impatiently. He shouldn’t expect to receive some information from her.

"No..." The woman shook her head.

"Hays..." Souta sighed. He wanted to interrogate the woman more but the pressure was getting heavier.

Cough! Cough!

The woman coughed heavily as blood poured out of her mouth. She loses her strength so Alice and Yujin didn’t received her divination.
