Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen

The next night, Roland rarely went out alone.

Although they also told Zhen Ming and others about finding a reliable fortune teller, unfortunately, they were not very interested in their future.

Forget about the real name and style, even Fujino is not very interested in it.

‘I am Lord Roland’s property, so in terms of destiny, Lord Roland and I are one and the same. As long as you know this, there is no need to know anything about the future. ’

Hearing such violent remarks from a junior high school student made Roland speechless for a while, and he decided to go on a solo trip after a long absence.

In the streets of Guanbuzi City at night, there is a gentle warm light.

Among the crowds of people coming and going, although there were still many people walking about on their own, the crowd was obviously much more lively than the busyness and indifference during the day.

For this ancient city, perhaps night is what it really looks like. After all, in addition to danger, silence and indulgence are also part of the night.

"Hmm... It seems that the people in Kanfuko City are much bolder than the citizens of Fuyuki."

Roland walked through the crowd and sighed teasingly.

Yesterday, the casualties caused by the gas explosion in Ogawa Apartment made the local news. The police stations were very busy, but they cracked down on the gangsters lurking in the alleys, making the flow of people at night significantly higher than in the previous days. Less, it can only be said to be an unexpected surprise.

The same disaster occurred, but the citizens of Fuyuki City reacted much more strongly, and basically stopped at night.

However, Roland can understand the reason. After all, there are still people working in Fuyuki City. Whether it is the church or the Tosaka family as landlords, covering up the mysterious influence is a necessary task, and the influence on the urban area is also much greater. many.

The wildly grown Guanbuzi City is still far behind in this regard, but this is also convenient for Roland.

He reached a place and turned back into the dark alleyway that no one cared about in the brightly lit streets.

This kind of alleyway that grows like a tumor due to the abandonment of development plans is a chronic disease in most cities, but from here, even the damaged street lamps are stained with dust, and the look of no one caring about it can understand the embarrassment of this city. , let alone eradication.

All adults can do is to warn children to stay away from this kind of place, and people from the police station will not enter here intentionally. After all, from a real world perspective, this kind of alley also houses a lot of scum. An angle that reduces crime rates.

"Sure enough, there is nothing that is not eye-catching. It's okay. I am looking forward to meeting the real owner now. If those scumbags delay my interest, I can only find a few more companions for Aruba. .”

Roland muttered while walking skillfully through the alley. Unlike the previous search for Aosaki Orange, this time the target didn't cost him any effort at all, not even the Black Shadow Corps.

Because the character named Guanbuzi’s mother is already an urban legend.

Although she possesses the ability to override the evil eye with absolute future vision, for Kanbuzi's mother, using this ability to help people avoid risks is enough to satisfy her.

Therefore, she has been hiding at the end of this narrow alley, acting as a mysterious fortune teller.

When he saw the dim light reappearing in the corner ahead, Roland also saw his target.

At the end of the dead-end alley, a table covered with a purple tablecloth stood there, with two swinging candles on it.

Rather than serving as lighting, these candlelights serve more to create a mysterious atmosphere.

The fortune teller, known as the mother of Guanbuzi, is sitting behind the table. She is wearing a black robe and a black gauze hat. She looks about fifty or sixty years old, with a somewhat fat body and a hazy look on her face. veil.

It’s hard to imagine that she would have such an image with such an ability. It wouldn’t be surprising if an uninformed person would regard her as a liar. Even a guy like Araya Soren who can see through the origin would be treated like this. The image may confuse you for a moment.

Although this is a false proposition in itself, because there is no future in which the monk in black can meet her. Even if he deliberately searches for it, this fate will be actively avoided.

"Welcome, unexpected guest, do you want to do some divination?"

The fortune teller behind the table made a kind and unexpected voice, and greeted Roland without any nervousness.

"Of course, after all, that's what I'm here for."

After noticing the eyes staring directly at him from behind the veil, Roland laughed and walked straight over.

"So, whatever you want in return, I can basically fulfill people's wishes."

As soon as he came to the table, Roland's words stunned the fortune teller who was looking at the crystal ball seriously.

"Generally speaking, I am the one who asks guests about their wishes. This is the first time someone has asked me this question. He is such an amazing person."

The fortune teller looked at Roland with dim eyes. He did not question or be surprised by his words, but replied in a steady voice.

"However, please don't worry about this. For you, little brother, this is free. But unfortunately, I can't help you interpret it. I can only tell you part of the future direction. After all, for characters outside of existence, After all, I’m just a fortune teller with old eyes and dim eyesight.”

"Isn't it possible to use the so-called absolute future vision?"

Roland asked curiously.

"Absolutely, it's just a part. The future is just a different perspective of observation. The method I use to help others avoid misfortune is just to let those who are willing to trust me to restrain themselves and replace them with new ones from their future inventory. .”

After listening to Roland's words, the fortune teller raised the corners of his mouth full of self-mockery.

"The more special the existence, the less inventory there is to choose from, and it will eventually be swallowed up by the future, leaving nothing behind."

As if whispering a prayer, she spoke her precious words.

"Even if you can see the future, you cannot easily go against fate, because what cannot change the future is not strength and wisdom, but character."

Roland was silent for a while and asked thoughtfully.

"So now I have grasped the future?"

"Ah... this is the only thing I can give you the accurate answer to. There is such a thing in the world."

The fortune teller blinked his eyes and showed a gentle smile, as if he had seen something dazzling or blessing.

"There is no doubt that yes, although it is different from what was expected, you have become the continuation of the dream and the embodiment of happiness. The merit of saving that child from the void is enough for your future in this world. A smooth road.”

One night many years ago, a girl named Liang Yizhi, who had the same brilliance as the young man in front of her, was recognized by her for such a future, and now, everything is still coming true.

The fortune teller who looked at Roland slowly lowered his head and did not continue speaking.

"This is the only future I can see. If it continues, I'm afraid I will die like this."

Guanbuzi's mother is aware of her abilities. The future she has spoken of so far is just a scene that is extended and combined through the bonds connected to Roland. After seeing the direction, if she wants to continue looking, she has to To gain insight into the nature of the person in front of you.

In that case, you will definitely die. It will not be a merciful death like the body being blown into a ball of powder and the soul being torn into countless pieces, but a tragic ending where even the inside cannot accommodate existence.

With just a quick glance, the fortune teller also understood that what existed in the opponent was the ancient principle of the legendary King of Heroes who could see through the future and even the most advanced clairvoyance could not reach it.

Even with the absolute future vision known as the Eye of God, if you want to peek into it, there will only be a dead end.

"I see."

Roland didn't have any dissatisfaction. After all, at the level of future vision, the mother of Guanbuzi in front of him was absolutely genuine. Being able to derive a certain degree of the future from the traces of his own contamination was already quite an achievement.

Moreover, this is not his main purpose anyway.

"Then it should be possible to see what was created just through the connection of the traces on my body."

"If it's just a clue, there must be no problem."

The fortune teller, who had just returned from the hell gate, gave a bitter smile. Although his face was exhausted, he nodded with a weak and proud voice.

"You can freely choose the direction, whether it's love or fate, as long as you really have a concrete connection with it."

"I want to know, where is {the location} I'm supposed to be?"

"Okay," the diviner nodded and was about to start divination, but instead of looking at the crystal ball on the table, he stretched his hand under the table.

As if she noticed Roland's gaze, she explained seriously.

"If you are an ordinary person, I can see everything using crystals to assist my spirit, but you can't. You must use actions to leave shapes in specific images, so that you can see the future more intuitively and accurately."

Roland nodded slightly.

"So, what method should we use to start divination?"

"I have already started divination. The moment I have this idea, everything I do next will be without any thought. In this case, the mark of fate will be clear."

Then, Guanbuzi's mother took out a strange deck of cards from under the table.

"This is the card of destiny, the Tarot card. Although young people now prefer to use crystal balls for divination, it is still very reliable."

The mother of Guanbuzi spread it gently with her hands, forming an elegant fan shape on the table, and gestured towards Roland.

"Choose one of them, it will be a hint of what you want."

Roland randomly picked out one piece and opened it without waiting for the mother of Guanbuzi to do anything.

--world.

Guanbuzi's mother stretched out her finger and tapped the card.

By now, Roland was used to this level of hints.

"Don't you need to interpret it? What kind of upright and inverse..."

"It's not that troublesome. For me, the cumbersome process is just a sense of ritual created to catch the ignorant guy. I just need to look at the traces."

The diviner made outrageous remarks that would move the magician. The technology of fortune-telling is also very popular in the Clock Tower. In order to explore the possibilities, the specific rituals have been innovated countless times.

But when the mother of Guanbuzi, who had absolute vision of the future, said this, not even Roland could find a reason to refute it.

"The card of the world itself symbolizes perfection, the end, and the starting point. The place you want to know is the position when the new moon rises. At that time, whether it is gravity, time, or fate, everything will be connected. cause and achieve the ultimate balance.”

Guan Buzi's mother rubbed the cards, her eyes gradually becoming trance-like.

Her future vision activated again.

"In your not-too-distant future, you will find the answer to your location. I saw... where you are in the future, the place that symbolizes the new moon. It... is in the {past}."

"past?"

"Yes," Guanbuzi's mother also showed a wry smile, "To be specific, it should be a few years ago, when the position you need existed in that time period,"

Roland was stunned for a moment, his expression a little subtle. {Shi} had also said similar words before, asking him to go to the past to establish a bond and complete the ceremony.

As a result, did it turn out to be a literal meaning?

"In the past...do I really have to go back?"

Roland's eyes were slightly lowered, and he did not give a specific evaluation, but nodded clearly.

"And one more thing,"

He paused and continued to ask: "I want to know, what is the last soul I need?"

Roland pulled out a tarot card again and pushed it towards the fortune teller.

It was also a strange question, but the mother of Guanbuzi just looked at the card in front of her with serious eyes again and carefully opened it.

Immediately, Roland also lowered his head and looked at the unfolded cards.

That was an answer he didn't expect.

"Star?"

"That's right, stars, the light born from the chaotic darkness, are like stars like gold."

The fortune teller spoke in an understatement, "The fate of the stars is the starting point of happiness in the world. Although I don't know who the specific target is, I can be sure that the last soul has a destiny born from darkness, but with a A spirit that shines like gold.”

“It may be relevant to you, but it’s not there yet, and if you meet someone in the future who has both qualities, it’s the answer you’ve been waiting for.”

"What a beautiful destiny this is," Guanbuzi's mother looked at the Tarot card with intoxicated eyes, "As long as you follow this guidance, the sacrifices of others will only bring you happiness and your glory. will never run out.”

Although there are differences, the description given by Guanbuzi's mother is very close to the golden spirit that Roland has heard about. To find such an object, you must have the innate conditions of being born from evil...

"Thank you," Roland then nodded towards the tired old man without commenting on the answer, "You have the wisdom to see through the essence, but you are willing to set up a stall on the roadside, although I don't know how you did it. Reason, but out of respect, I will keep this wish for you.”

He turned around and walked away.

Under the illumination of the candlelight, the fortune teller laughed happily, which lasted for a full minute before stopping.

I don’t know if she was satisfied or if her stomach cramped from laughing.

In her eyes, the bright future was being subverted scene by scene. She had forgotten about it, and those vague memories, whether they were good or bad, were not spared, as if they had just happened yesterday.

These are all manifestations of the results she has caused.

"There is no need..."

After Roland's figure completely disappeared, the fortune teller's whisper came from the deep alley.

"What I really wanted has been achieved."

The reason why the fortune teller, known as the mother of Guanbuzi, chose to set up a stall is very simple. She just hates misfortune and likes happiness.

Regardless of wealth or fame, this reason is her original motivation.

And just now, she has seen the means that will change human beings and reach a state of true happiness. That is
