Even though I don’t believe in the power to see the future, I couldn’t help but be intrigued when I thought about Beleth’s unique ability.
Can Stolas really see the future? If so,
“……I was curious about Stolas’s ability.”
The thought slipped through her lips as she was lost in contemplation.
“Are you talking about seeing the future through flowers?”
Stolas, who immediately understood her intention, showed a warm smile. It was a comforting smile that made her wonder if her father would have looked at her like that.
“……I was actually wondering if you can really see the future.”
Most of the other demons had abilities that were intuitively visible, and Beleth had read her past life, so there was no reason not to trust him.
But an ability to read the yet-to-come future?
That was a bit questionable.
“It’s not exactly seeing the future. I can only answer ‘yes or no’ to the questions posed…… Would you like to try it, since we have some flowers left?”
Stolas pointed to the vegetable plot. Only four flowers were left.
Beril had never believed the stories of those who claimed to see the future. It would be too sad if fate flowed as spoken by someone else.
But now that she had the opportunity to glimpse the future, she became curious.
I hope to hear good news.
“……Hmm,”
As Beril seemed about to ask a question, Stolas picked up a flower.
“I am……”
She had many futures she wanted to know. But Decarabia was next to her, and Stolas himself was listening.
She couldn’t ask if she would adapt safely here or if she needed to run away.
So what she said was this:
“Will I live for more than ten years?”
At least in the next few years, her life’s direction would likely be decided.
Whether she could genuinely be with Beleth by staying in Vain, or else……
Either being executed in the temple for the sin of allying with a demon, or even that not happening.
She didn’t want to think about it, but Vain could also betray her.
If she lived through various possibilities and survived about 10 years, wouldn’t she obtain a somewhat stable life?
“……?”
Decarabia just looked at her quietly in response to her question. Stolas also seemed surprised, his eyes widening before grabbing a petal.
“……You will survive, you won’t.”
And so, a blue aura gathered around him and was absorbed into the flower.
“……!”
Magic must really be magic. In front of her slightly parted lips, Stolas began to pluck the petals one by one.
Countless petals, too many to count at a glance. As if to say that there were so many hurdles she had to overcome for her survival, an innumerable number of petals.
“Can survive, cannot survive…”
As the petals disappeared, Beril felt as if her heart was pounding twice as hard.
Even though she thought she didn’t believe in such divinations, she couldn’t help but be concerned about the outcome.
And then, when only a few petals were left, Beril slightly opened her mouth.
Because now she could see her future. This outcome was…
“…You can survive.”
Stolas spoke as he plucked the last petal. He said it while looking directly at Beril.
“You can survive for more than ten years.”
Knowing that this affirmation had no basis, knowing that his ability was the only basis, Beril let out a short sigh.
Because that single sentence strangely offered relief. It seemed to give some assurance to an uncertain future.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
