Part 5
”Next person please” It was already afternoon when I heard that small voice come from inside the temporarily set up facility
”I've kept you waiting” In the end it seeroup took around 15to stand in the queue for quite a long tier care about the fortune-teller inside, that the voice from the room behind the curtain where the fortune-teller was
And when I entered, inside was a scenery I would often see on the television The dark lighting inside was only about 30 lux And added to that, there was a thick book, a hammer and a crystal ball that could also be used to throhose purpose I didn't know
The old fortune-teller woman inside had a hood on her and as such I couldn't see her expression The atrade It seeh it is reflecting Ibuki's and my future And before the fortune-teller, there were two round seats with no backrests placed I suppose that's where we are supposed to sit And when the two of us sat down, the fortune-teller siht hand moved
”First of all, pay up” the fortune-teller told us
And having said that, she pulls out a card reader from beneath and table and places it on the table in front of us Fro of a fortune-tellinglike that and gave off an incongruous feeling
Of course, I didn't think it would be free of charge, but I was still suddenly pulled back to reality
”What are you going to divine for us?” Before she took out her student card, Ibuki first asked that question
”Your studies, work, love affairs and anything you like” the fortune-teller replied while laughing creepily with a grin It certainly gave off a powerful feeling to the surrounding area, but h she were a witch
But the price list placed on the table really is a mismatch
It seeories The things the fortune-teller said just now seems to be included in the ”basic plan” And in there, it is divided further into more sets And one of the others there are courses that would let you see up to the very end of your lifespan And since the fortune-telling has a pair requirement, there are also many courses that focus on romance
This is justdivines a bad compatibility between partners, I wonder what those partners would do then It's just that for any course, over 5000 points are required It's rather expensive
”Even soit's expensive” For a Class D student struggling with the matter of points each and every day, this seems to be a severe expense But even if I say that, it would be a waste to go back without having the chance to investigate Tenchuusatsu There was always the option of sioing back but if I do that, I would have no way of reliably telling its accuracy I thought just in case as I checked my point balance on my phone On the screen, my private points were displayed The balance I currently had was roughly 6000 points so it seems like I can barely afford it
”I'll just have the basic plan” Ibuki said unexpectedly Even though she had professed her like of fortune-telling, she doesn't see the full course
”What'll you do?” she asks me
”I'll have the same plan as Ibuki”
At this point it just feels like I' a meal at a diner, but I said that and held up my student card The sound of a used card played from the reader and a certain balance was deducted from my card
”Then let's start from the lady here, what's your name?” the fortune-teller asked
”Ibuki Ibuki Mio”
She answered briefly like that
”My fortune-teller letstheyou'd rather keep private Are you fine with that?” the fortune-teller asks
”Do as you wish” Ibuki promptly replied
Ibuki answered that she would not be upset by that, whether or not she believes that aside From under her hood, I could see not only the wrinkled skin of the fortune-teller but also her sharp gaze And then, instructing Ibuki to put out both her hands, she begins to speak of the results of her fortune-telling slowly
”Starting with pal life I cannot see you suffering any major illnesses as of now” she spoke
It seems a story that one usually hears is the opener I personally don't understand how one can divine that fro it was pointless, I felt
Perhaps the fortune-teller is using the statistics of their own experiences to divine this? If it were ood health of many of the custoiveon, the fortune-teller spoke of studies, financial luck and love affairs with unexpected answers
