Book 4: Chapter 63:2: Romance Fortuneteller, Specializing in Breakups, Part 2
Faillen Angel Gabriel: ...What agitated you?
He Who Knows Fate: Nothing. I just thought of Mother of Mifune.
I Have a Strong Presence: But Mother of Mifune helps couples in love avoid breakups. You are breaking them up.
He Who Knows Fate: I just feel that being in a relationship is not good for middle-school and high-school students’ studies. This is the resentment of a powerful high-school student.
Kal’tsit: He Who Knows Fate’s worldview on love might be somewhat strange.
He Who Knows Fate: Why is it strange? I have always firmly believed in a saying.
Iron Fist Teacher: What saying?The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
He Who Knows Fate: The wise do not step into the river of love.
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: ...I recall a line following that saying should be “meeting you makes it hard to be wise.” I’ve heard it before.
[TL Note: The entire saying is: The wise do not step into the river of love; the stupid fall in willingly. Meeting you makes it hard to be wise; I am willing to be stupid.]
He Who Knows Fate: Huh? There’s more to it? I didn’t know that.
Efreet: Whoever ends up in a relationship with you or falls in love with you will be extremely unlucky.
Achoo! N number of people sneezed, but it might be zero. Erm...who knows how many there were? Furthermore, whether there were any was still in question.
[TL Note: The above is a reference to a trope where people sneeze when someone talks bad about them.]
He Who Knows Fate: Would you like me to livestream?
Efreet: This...
Although Itsuka Kotori said such actions were bad, she strangely wanted to watch.
“It does not look practical for combat.” This was Skadi’s evaluation.
“I’m asking you to evaluate its appearance. Also, who says this is not practical for fighting? Back at home, the powerful people wear this kind of clothes. It’s just that their combat method is different from what you imagine.”
“I see. A different way of fighting?”
“...” Skadi’s focus is always strangely different from others.
“Then I’ll go first. Bye-bye!”
“Be careful on your way. Remember to bring supper back.”
“Got it, Liz.”
After leaving the hotel, Chen Heng strode to that nearby park.
Then he found a relatively remote corner before taking everything out.
First was the Daoist outfit; he was already wearing that. Next was a table covered in yellow cloth and two stools. After that were a set of Tarot cards, a container of wooden lots, and a crystal ball. He even had a banner with the words “Romance Consultant” behind him.
This was the divination set worth one point. The combined items guaranteed customer satisfaction. However, it did not feel very reliable.
Then Chen Heng carried the table, with the crystal ball, Tarot cards, the wooden lots, and two stools piled on top, as he walked.
As he moved the table, people watched him. After all, his outfit was very eye-catching.
Chen Heng only placed the items down when he found a more suitable place, farther away from the main flow of pedestrians.
The place he picked had little traffic, but most importantly, he would not block the way.
After setting up the stall, he sat on the stool and waited patiently for the first customer. At the same time, he started the livestream.
Efreet: How many couples do you think He Who Knows Fate will break up today?
17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Although this does not sound nice, I feel that with such a powerful tool like Precognition, any relationship will be doomed if they dare to believe Chen Heng’s words.
