73 – 15. Saint and Eileen
Point.
Damn it, this was the only method that came to mind.
‘Two personalities, one dies.’
This is a fact I had no idea about, and of course I have no idea how to solve it.
If it had been possible to solve it by some means, the saint would have taken action a long time ago.
However, if it is impossible even for a saint who is revered in the largest religious order, it will be no different no matter who comes.
Neither the knowledge of the game nor the connections I have built here nor any wealth will be of any help.
If there is something you really believe in.
This is just a job skill with a terrible name.
‘Although the probability of being correct is low, job skills definitely tell the truth.’
It was like that during Wang Fei, and it was like the job skill I tested before the Great Lakes Exam.
The results are guaranteed.
‘…… In the end, it’s a fortune to believe in the end.’
I thought I understood, but a feeling of rejection rose deep in my heart. My disgust arises from the fact that I am not using the fortune, but rather have to trust and leave it to the fortune.
The appearance of that pseudo-bastard, the changes and suicide of his parents, and even those who were destroyed by fortune telling.
Numerous thoughts passed by.
I thought about it several times in a short period of time…… In the end, the conclusion was the same.
‘Divination.’
Aileen Teddy Bear, and a saint.
They are the result of the choices I made.
I changed a life that was originally supposed to suffer and disappear.
Then, of course, I have to take responsibility for both of them.
It was a slim possibility, but there was a possibility that Eileen could be saved, and at best I couldn’t let my emotions fool me.
Shuffling the cards that appeared out of thin air, he pulled up a chair and sat down in front of the saintess who was covered in tears.
“Please draw a card.”
“……………….”
Let’s keep in mind, always smile and be relaxed.
A fortune teller should never be nervous. Trust in fortune telling comes from fortune tellers.
Any fortune teller who outwardly expresses anxiety is an amateur.
That’s why I put on the same smile as always and the composure that it will definitely be resolved.
“…Namgoong Min, I’m truly sorry, but…”
“I have heard the whole story.”
“…… I want to be with this child and her sister. If Eileen disappears… I will be by your side for the rest of my life.”
The saint shed her tears again, which had stopped.
Her fingertips were trembling.
“Just for today… Please go back.”
“No.”
“…Why?”
“I’m here to save you and Eileen.”
“…!”
Lies, and fraud.
It’s what I do best.
So let’s fool ourselves. I really can solve it, I can have a happy ending.
Only then can true leisure come out.
“Namgoong Min, sir.”
“I will let you stay with Eileen from now on, so please draw a card.”
“……I believe it. That’s the reason for my existence….”
Jaw.
The saint picked up one of the unfolded cards with her trembling hands.
Her eyes were shaking endlessly, but she was looking at me so earnestly.
She meets his eyes and opens her mouth before her card turns over.
“”
“…!”
Shocked.
The ending where everyone can laugh is, of course, coexistence.
Although the name is ridiculous, the job skills that have been strengthened through several job quests are showing a higher hit rate than before.
Shamefully, I just rely on this probability.
‘The probability is 24%.’
Betting everything on 1/4.
“Please turn it over.”
“…Yes.”
And the card the saint drew is──
[Job skill Completed!
Divination content:
Progress of point:
Results of divination: There is no such method. It’s no use.
Probability of the result of fortune telling being carried out as is: 24% (basic 14% + 8% using tarot cards + 2% fortune teller’s gloves bonus)]
“……………….”
“Me, Namgoong Min? Why is this card blank…?”
──It is empty.
Just a blank card with no patterns, decorations, numbers or letters.
Of course, this is a card that does not exist in Tarot.
‘…… Is it the same context as the last ?’
It is clear that when you use a job skill, the tarot cards change randomly.
But what is more shocking than that is the result of fortune telling.
──There is no such way. It’s no use.
Of course, it was an unacceptable result.
‘No, since there is a 24% chance of being correct, does that mean there is a way to make it more than 70% likely?’
…… You can’t jump to conclusions.
More than anything, I am reluctant to even say that it is useless.
I didn’t think I could finish it in one go.
“Nam Goong Min?”
“.”
“…This?”
“Let’s try again.”
Second job skill per day.
I felt dizzy for a moment, but my smile did not distort.
‘As expected, there is a severe penalty for duplicate use.’
The results of job skills depend on probability and do not tell you whether the answer is correct or incorrect.
So what if we ask the same question multiple times?
If there is a 24% chance of getting the right answer, wouldn’t that mean that the answer that comes out 2-3 times out of 10 is correct?
But that method was blocked as if it were natural.
Job skills can only be used once per day.
Anything more than that will put a lot of strain on the body.
‘But what?’
It’s just a strain on your body, but it doesn’t mean you can’t use your job skills, right?
Although something deep inside her head throbbed, she did not lose her smile and waited for the saint to draw another card.
“”
Asking the same question, look at the card the saint turned over.

“Again…Yes.”
“…………Ha.”
It was a blank page again.
Even if you check other cards, they are only normal Tarot cards.
Out of the 78 cards, the two cards the saint chose were blank.
“……….”
No way.
“.”
“Nam Goong Min.”
“Let’s try again, again.”
Probably not.
The saintess, who had a resigned expression as if she had guessed the outcome after seeing my reaction, drew a card again and asked the same question.
“……….”
“……………….”
Again.
It’s a blank page.

‘…… ‘It’s no use?’
Dots are not omnipotent. I know that better than anyone else.
For example, even if you were to tell me how to make the sun rise in the west or how to suddenly destroy the world, I would not be able to give you an answer.
Because there is no such way.
Dots provide answers that exist somewhere in the world, rather than creating something from nothing.
The results of job skills were pushing that reality.
No matter how much you guess, no matter how much you rely on probability.
In the first place, there is no way to allow a saint and Eileen to coexist.
“……………….”
When I realized that fact, I was dazed for a moment.
A new status window appeared before my eyes.
[Class-specific quest:
The profession itself has a personality and has been passed down from generation to generation, eliminating the personality of the profession’s owner.
The personality itself was not inherited, but the experience, wisdom, and memories that the personality had accumulated were inherited, even if only little by little.
There have been numerous attempts so far. There were times when the personalities of Themselves tried to disappear out of disgust, and there were even attempts to eliminate the profession itself.
But currently, And Are alive and well.
It is the fortune teller’s duty to comply with the inevitable fate.
Accept it.
Goal: Give up
Period: Until Eileen Teddy Bear’s personality disappears
Reward: Enhancement of job skill , Fortune teller-exclusive artifact, fortune teller-exclusive equipment, fortune teller-exclusive general skill, increased number of job skills that can be used per day, improved physical aptitude]
‘Give up?’
I’m not convinced, so it seems like they’re trying to nail me by popping up a status window.
It is the duty of a fortune teller to comply with fate.
As if to prove that it was a difficult quest to accept, the rewards were also different in number from before. At this point, with a long way to go until the ending, each and every one was a valuable reward.
So my answer was decided.
“Get out.”
“Nam Goong Min?”
“Let’s try again, try again.”
Accept it? Give up? Don’t give a damn.
Is it the job of a fortune teller to comply with fate?
‘I am not a fortune teller.’
I have accepted fortune telling as a profession, but I do not consider myself a true fortune teller at all.
So I don’t have to follow that damn thing.
So.
“Please draw a card.”
Fourth time, a nosebleed occurred, but thanks to the Skill, it quickly disappeared.
Seventh, the tinnitus and headache became so severe that I could not even hear what the saint said. But she didn’t lose her smile.
For the tenth time, blood was flowing not only from the nose but also from the ears and eyes. So far, I’ve been able to survive thanks to .
For the fourteenth time, one eye went from dark to dark. Now I can only hear tinnitus and feel nothing but headaches and pain.
Still, I think I keep smiling.
For the sixteenth time, I suddenly felt a warm touch on my hand. The saint holding my hand was shedding tears.
I couldn’t hear what they were saying, but it was clear what they were saying.
“It’s still worth holding on to.”
…… I thought I answered correctly, but what came out of my mouth was unintelligible sound.
It’s embarrassing.
For the 22nd time, now I can only see the status window in the dark.
Mechanically shuffle the cards and ask questions. I wonder if the words are coming out properly, but the status window that glows before my eyes is the same.
This time too, the card was blank. The results were the same.
Did you say it was the law of large numbers? It’s only my twenty-second. You can still do it.
The cards were shuffled.
I realized that when the pain gets too severe, I can’t feel it at all. This was the thirtieth time.
Thanks to you, fortune telling has become easier. Wouldn’t the smile have come back?
You can still see the job quest in the corner of your eye. Perhaps it’s because of my mood, but there seems to be a lot of content asking me to accept it.
Get out.
Sixty-fifth.
From Noble mtl dot com
Maybe it was because of my mood, but each card I grabbed felt damp.
It is a very simple process, so it will take less than 10 seconds each time you use a job skill, but it feels like a very long time has passed.
This time too, the result was the same.
It was time to laugh at the job quest that had changed to a content that felt like a plea, and try to shuffle the cards again.
“……….”
There was warmth.
“………Mr. Min.”
Light appeared in the vision that had been dark.
“Namgoong Min, sir.”
…… And then, a saint appeared.
The saint looked even worse than before. She cried so much that her eyes were bloodshot, and her hands were shaking so much that their veins were visible.
His voice was cracked and his breathing was rough.
…… She was still beautiful as she hugged me.
“Stop, stop… Do it.”
“……Card.”
“Please, please, please. I don’t want to see you suffer anymore….”
“…….”
“So give up, I will remember Eileen for the rest of my life, so please…”
“…No.”
“Nam Goong Min.”
“Why are you giving up?”
“…Yes?”
The saintess seems embarrassed by the sudden change in tone and her bloodshot eyes widen.
It was an informal language that was almost rude, abandoning the formality of a ‘fortune teller’.
I was sincere.
“Aelin and I are sisters? Are you saying we are precious?”
“Of course, of course.”
“Then why are you giving up? You shouldn’t give up. You should hold on to someone and pray for them.”
“……….”
“If it’s really precious, if it’s really so precious that I would sacrifice my life for it.”
──What kind of kid is this?
──Please just order anything.
──Are you a bold bastard? You know that your parents died because of me, right?
──I know.
──Still, you will follow me?
──Because then Jisoo can live with me.
──…… You f*cking brat. Okay, I’ll pamper you as much as you want.
“I have to do something. I have to pray, get down on my knees, throw away my pride, and still do it stubbornly.”
“……….”
“Whether it’s making money from it, learning how to cheat, trying to keep a smile while getting beaten up, whatever you do.”
“……………….”
“I am the fortune teller, and you are the customer. All the customer has to do is draw a card and hear the results.”
“……….”
“Because it is the fortuneteller’s job to provide the answer. The answer is not fate or probability, but the fortuneteller’s interpretation.”
In this way, the fortune teller can avoid being eaten by the fortune teller.
Like what the pseudo-dog said.
A fortune teller is someone who uses fortune telling, not someone who believes in fortune telling.
“So, pull out a card.”
“……………….”
“Forget anything that tells you to give up.”
So.
This is the sixty-sixth time.
Perhaps thanks to the saint’s skills, her physical condition has improved, so we should start again.
It was quite late and it was dark outside the window. It was late when I arrived at this house, so maybe the sun had already set.
It was time to shuffle the cards again.
“…Huh?”
…… Suddenly, I felt an intuition.
Feeling vague confidence, I stopped shuffling the cards and stretched out my hand into the air. Of course, it was a meaningless and meaningless action.
Of course, the only things you can touch are dust and air.
Something was caught in my hand.
“…Namgoong Min, is that…?”
“Ha.”
…… It was a glass teapot.
It’s also full of water.
[By acting like a fortune teller, the conditions for using the exclusive artifact Are unlocked.]
[
The water in a glass kettle is transparent and cannot be seen.
The same goes for your future.
* This is an artifact exclusive to the occupation ! You can call it when you want!
* You must meet 3 conditions to use it! Conditions are open when you act like a fortune teller! =＞ Conditions are open!
1. The more you act ‘like a fortune teller,’ the more water the kettle fills. It can be used only when it is full of water.
2. The sky should darken so you can see the stars.
3. You should not believe in numerology.
* Cannot be used as a regular kettle!]
[All conditions have been met.]
[You can temporarily use the special skill .]
“……Namgoong Min?”
“…Two hands.”
“Yes?”
“Put your hands together.”
It was a sudden remark, but the saint quietly followed Namgoong Min’s words.
Because I felt like if I did that, he wouldn’t be able to use his job skills.
The saint did not want her own god to suffer.
“Here…”
“Good job.”
Squeak.
The fortune teller pours water from a glass jug into the saint’s hands.
Although her hands were trembling, the water could have overflowed between her fingers, but the water in the glass jug quietly filled the saint’s hands without leaking or shaking.
Her small hands are filled with water, and the faint starlight beyond her window is reflected in the water.
Stars reflected in water. Water filled with stars.
The fortune teller quietly dipped a finger into the water and stars.
Special skill .
“…Huh?”
The star in the water shines.
Following the fortuneteller’s fingers, a new star rises, and a line is drawn, connecting one star to another.
Even though the saint’s hands are shaking and the fortune teller’s fingers are moving, the water and stars are calm without even a faint wave.
Soon, many stars began to rise and connect each other with a line.
The saint inadvertently opened her mouth at that image.
“…Twins?”
The stars that follow are Gemini.
However, more stars rise and look like two girls.
Twins who are close friends, holding hands made of stars and reflected in the water.
When the saint gazes at that sight in fascination.
‘……… Brother?’
“……Eh, Eileen?”
‘Ah…….’
“Aileen? Eileen!?”
‘This is…’ … Memory… ….’
“Eileen!”
‘Warm memories…… Memory…… ‘I remember.’
The sister of the saint who fell asleep in the great lake and could not even hear her voice.
Eileen Teddy Bear opened her eyes.
Only then did the saint realize.
“……Uh.”
Before she knew it, she was standing on a field instead of in a room.
No, not on the field.
Field, lake, village, family, happiness, surprise, joy, sadness, mother, separation, pain, father, house, house, house, house, house, house, house, house, house.
The life and trajectory of a girl named Eileen Teddy Bear.
Passing by her saint, her small form was forming.
“…Eh, Ilin.”
That person, with countless memories accumulated, looked exactly like the saint herself.
So the saint quietly held her hand.
She held onto her hand tightly so that she wouldn’t disappear this time.
Then, place your forehead against it.
“I… Am here.”
Eileen said.
“Yes, I feel it…!”
The saint answered.
It was a moment when two sisters coexisted.
It’s literally fate defying skill as long mc never give up
If ellien died i am dropping this
