Lin and Mirabel walked along the main avenue of Bestia, their hands tightly clasped together.

This was Mirabel’s precautionary measure, ensuring she could immediately deal with any mischief Lin might try. She made it a habit to hold Lin’s hand whenever they went out.

Lin didn’t refuse.

After all, both Lin and Mirabel had always held tightly onto Karami’s hand whenever they wandered around somewhere.

Now, regardless of who it was, not holding someone’s hand felt empty and strangely unsettling.

By chance, the two were of similar height, making it easy to hold hands. Their hands were equally small and delicate, and their body temperatures matched. Though different from the sense of stability that came from holding Karami’s hand, this brought its own kind of comfort.

It was mutually beneficial.

“You said you’d do fortune-telling, but how exactly are you planning to do it?”

Mirabel, being a witch, had some knowledge of fortune-telling.

There were many methods of divination.

In the West, people often used tarot cards or astrological readings based on celestial alignments.@@novelbin@@

Others used a witch’s crystal ball or drew cards inscribed with runes.

In the East, there was divination using hwatu cards or fortune-telling based on the Five Elements (eumyang oheng) and the Ten Celestial Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches (saju palja). Added to that were physiognomy and palm reading. The possibilities were endless.

“Lin doesn’t know any of that!”

Lin disliked anything complicated.

The childlike Lin preferred simplicity.

“Then how are you going to do it?”

“Lin will use eye-divination!”

Lin didn’t need tools. With her Il-yeong-an (All-Seeing Eye), she could discern a person’s fate just by looking at them.

Thanks to having absorbed the power of the Celestial Fox, she could even determine the most likely outcomes of someone’s destiny.

Without any preparation, Lin spread a mat on a busy street, sat down, and began setting up shop. On a signboard provided by Heukbi, she scribbled some words and hung it around her neck.

“Today’s Fortune by a Gumiho – 1 Silver per Reading.”

“Lin will read your fortune! Come one, come all!”

Sitting cross-legged with her arms folded, Lin called out boldly to draw in customers.

Mirabel, watching this scene, quietly stepped away, putting some distance between them.

I don’t know this person.
