Chapter 302: What are Reminiscences (5)

Theia doesn’t let private emotions intervene together with her assessments.

This implies she doesnt give Shion Ascal, who’s virtually a canine of Libra, a foul rating, nor does she favor her personal scholar, Gerkhen, with good scores.

She has given up on evaluating the 2 of them.

As a substitute, she centered on one other case.

Dereks synthetic intelligence. Monitoring the large evil perpetrated by that damned household.

[Owl: Investigating]

Even the informants infiltrated inside Libra discover it tough to entry the Al facet.

That should imply its totally guarded.

Thankfully, Dereks Al has been secured. A contact bought the Al on her behalf. Dissecting and analyzing it would reveal essential proof.

Hmm.

Theia let loose a quiet yawn and turned on the group messenger on her pc. The chat room of her studentsgraduate studentswas bustling with messages.

Theia would not be part of their conversations, however she does have a behavior of snooping. In actual fact, this chat room is one she wasnt invited to.

Which means, she hacked into it.

[Arkham: Wow. So Gerkhen got accepted just like that? That’s awesome.]

[Allen: Is Gerkhen coming to our lab?]

[Arkham: Looks like hes going to be a direct apprentice to the professor.]

[Allen: Jealous;;]

These guys have clear eyes and sharp ears. They’re delicate to tendencies and matters. Most of them are from the higher class or these carefully related to it, so the standard of knowledge they entry is excessive.

Studying this chat window helps her perceive the present social local weather much better than checking the morning information.

However the extra she reads, the extra she feels omitted.

Theia opened one other group chat, one she formally belongs to.

Its been silent for 3 days.

Theia despatched a message out of boredom.

[Has everyone prepared for the upcoming paper?]

No reply. It wasnt even learn.

She went again to the chat room she wasnt a part of.

[Allen: Did you see the professors message? How’s everyone doing with the paper?]

[Arthong: No idea, f*ck. The samples keep getting contaminated.]

[Charles: OO@@ Can someone help me?]

This room was full of life, but nobody responded in her personal chat.

Would it not kill them to answer?

Theia felt harm as she in contrast the 2 chat rooms.

[BestFriendo: Guys. Do you know about Castology?]

Then an odd title got here up.

[Allen: Oh, I know that. Isn’t that the psychic who gets everything right?]

[Arthong: No, no, not a psychic but a fortune-teller. Tarot cards, right? They say he pinpointed Benjamins Yesterday with that.]

Fortune-teller. Castology. This was a subject unknown to Theia.

[Charles: I know about that too. Didnt that fortune-teller save Mr. Yerain?]

She learn with intrigue.

[Arthong: Right. She almost got killed by her lunatic boyfriend.]

[Charles: Yeah; but she survived because Castology insisted she must always have a bodyguard.]

[Arthong: Crazy. How much does one session cost? Must be expensive, right?]

[Charles: I heard Mr. Yerain spent almost a million Ren on consultation fees alone.]

[Arthong: Damn]

One million Ren for session charges.

If true, its an inexpensive value for a life.

[Charles: But even if you have the money, people like us cant see him. Its all about connections, and unless youre someone like Mr. Yerain or Mr. Sheron, you cant even think about it.]

[Arthong: Even our professor?]

[Charles: What about the professor?]

Theia herself isnt significantly involved in fortune-telling or psychics, nevertheless it appears price contemplating.

It may not simply be easy fortune-telling however one thing extra akin to a [Spectrum] .

Tsk.

To assume like this, she should be feeling uneasy nowadays.

Theia is slowly approaching Libra. She is decided to reveal no matter corruption and filth lurk at their very core to the world

However the odds are unsure.

Theia wrote down the title Castology in her pocket book.

[Passing of the Knight Certification]

I acquired the notification of my passing. Among the many freshmen on the nationwide college, there have been most likely solely three of us: Gerkhen, Soliette, and me.

For the file, Kain and Asher didnt even apply for the examination.

Shion. Did Shion move too?

Simply then, Soliette requested.

We had been within the outdated Endex constructing. The place shes paying me lease to dwell in.

Sure.Up to date from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m

I confirmed her the display screen of my smartphone.

Hehe. Congratulations.

Soliette unfold out her palm. I high-fived her.

Clap!

Thanks.

Now, theres no motive for me to attend college anymore.

In fact, many individuals nonetheless attend college even after acquiring their knight certification. Theyre not simply specializing in knight-related majors or lessons, but additionally on studying numerous different topics.

In actual fact, Erick and Sheron, who acquired their certifications way back, are attending numerous business-related lectures, and Gerkhen, who goals of turning into a Senator, will proceed at college.

Not me.

Shion. So, youre not going to college anymore?

Beckron crossed his arms in frustration.

I do not know what youre speaking about. So, are you saying these grudges are ruining my enterprise?

Youre fallacious.

Then what’s it!

He ultimately yelled, and I pointed at Beckron with my finger.

The vengeful spirits are attempting to kill you.

Me? Has this fortune teller misplaced his thoughts

The gathered grudges will develop into a illness inside your physique.

A well-known challenge earlier than regression.

Beckron will get most cancers.

Not like my Most cancers of the Magics Core, however pancreatic most cancers.

However hes fortunate as a result of it will likely be found throughout a well being examine afterward, so he wont die, Im simply informing him a bit early.

Illness?

Beckron paused barely.

What nonsense. I should be an fool for coming to obtain such unscientific fo rtu n e-te Ui ng.

He spat out harsh phrases and began to go away the tent, however then he turned again, gathered all of the charges he had positioned on the desk, and walked out once more.

I referred to as out to his again.

Youre a person who doesnt know what’s essential. Do not assume that one illness is the tip.

In fact, pancreatic most cancers is often the tip, however Im simply scaring him.

This manner, when he comes again later, Ailing take all the things he has, liver and gallbladder included.

You need to be grateful I dont ship somebody to destroy this place.

Beckron glanced at me sideways and left the constructing threateningly.

Drip-drip

Rain falls outdoors the window. What started as mere droplets touched by fingertips quickly thickens, soaking the winter backyard in a chilly embrace.

Chirr-

Whiskey fills the glass. Johannas pale, delicate fingers grasp it.

She sits in a chair, gazing out the window.

On the desk, the laptop computer display screen nonetheless shows the previous. For months, it tormented Johanna, a present she had ready although calling it a present is utter bullshit.

It was easy curiosity.

Simply eager to know him.

The life traces that made Shion Ascal who he’s as we speak, not simply his hobbies and habits, however even his dad and mom, spurred her to foolishly lay our a fortune to uncover the reality.

Gulp-gulp

Johanna downs the arduous liquor. The recent liquid surges into her chest. Intoxication and ache mingle, breeding turmoil.

She slumps, pondering merely.

Can this occasion be thought-about stunning?

Sure, may such occasions actually have a big impression on me?

Up to now, such ‘occasions had been widespread for her.

Quite common.

Johanna, Derek, Jade, all of them had their share of far worse incidents.

The pharmaceutical enterprise was one thing their father, Sherlock, was significantly obsessive about, and all three siblings needed to inherit it, however after a lot ache, Derek ended up taking it over.

But, the explanation Derek bought this information to her was in the end as a result of it was us.

As a result of it was Libra.

[Day 180 of Drug Administration: Disposal Process Initiated]

Johanna glances once more on the laptop computer display screen. Shes unsure what number of days shes spent staring on the stark phrases Disposal Course of.

The identical worries, the identical torment, confined on this househow a lot has he suffered, she couldnt say.

If, his sickness is due to Libra.

If his fathers loss of life, and his dying, are actually due to Libra.

If thats actually the case.

Then their assembly was doomed from the beginning. Their mutual love was flawed from the start.

Libra was not his benefactor.

Subsequently, he shouldn’t have been loyal to Libra. He shouldn’t have come to Libra following his father’s needs. He shouldn’t have met her then.

He ought to have resented Libra, and he or she ought to have resented him too.

Nonetheless

Johanna nonetheless sees his face when she closes her eyes. His earnestness as he declared his love within the desert panorama blurs, and her personal emotions of loving him are reaffirmed.

Ha

Initially, he ought to have hated her.

He ought to have been disgusted by her.

He ought to have despised her.

lt’s arduous to bear.

Johanna discovered it insufferable.

If it had been her former self, she would have scoffed at anyones hatred, disgust, or dislike.

However not with Shion Ascal.

Simply imagining his gaze shifting from like to hatred, his physique and thoughts stuffed with betrayal, introduced on a ache to her abdomen, as if it had been being torn aside.

I

Johanna regarded out the window once more. She felt the chilliness of the falling rain. Her pores and skin appeared to freeze.

I really feel responsible.

For the primary time, she skilled that feeling.

It was a devastating type of guilt that went past mere apology, accepting even the sins of her household as her personal fault.

Johanna regarded on the calendar. It had by some means develop into winter, however her time and that guys time would have been completely different.

His seasons had been operating out.

Johanna silently bowed her head.

She choked again a rising sob, struggling to include her tears.
