Chapter 145 My Pendulum Spins Like a Fan
Klein felt that Fors seemed to have recalled something. The lady had a rich expression, sometimes panic, sometimes surprise, and then turned into joy and calmness...

He had no idea what was going on, and even doubted Fors's mental state. He quickly took out a wanted warrant he had received from the Church of Evernight yesterday and said:

"Ms. Wall, have you come into contact with this person recently? Perhaps his appearance has been disguised... Does it look familiar to you?

"The Church of Evernight is looking for this 'swindler'. The reward for providing clues is 10 pounds, but he is actually a dangerous person..."

Xio's eyes lit up. He took the wanted warrant and placed it in front of Fors, reading: "Laneverus... the amount of fraud exceeded ten thousand pounds... ten thousand pounds! How despicable!"

Klein looked at Xio with pity. The first reaction of this "arbitrator" was similar to his own. It seemed that everyone's life was not very affluent...

Conse leaned over and saw Lanevus's portrait. He asked curiously, "This man looks very ordinary, except that his smile is a little sarcastic... Klein, you said he is dangerous? In what way? Is he related to the 'black cross' that Ms. Wall mentioned?"

"That's right." Klein explained immediately after seeing Old Blue nod slightly:

"This symbol is closely related to the Aurora Society. In previous records, the 'real creator' they promoted was an upside-down giant. Many people today speculate that the 'Hanged Man' card in the tarot cards invented by Emperor Roselle should correspond to this secret existence.

"But in a recent case, we got another clearer image of the 'True Creator': a huge cross, a man hanging upside down, covered in blood, and a one-eyed...

"Phew, Miss Wall, please take this matter seriously. I once encountered a Beyonder who was contaminated by Him. There was a similar scene in his consciousness space... and the ending of that Beyonder was not very good...

"Lanevers was involved in a ritual of the Aurora Society. He is likely to be contaminated by the evil god. This contamination may be transferred and spread. That's why I want to confirm whether you have encountered this 'swindler'."

Huh?! Fors was a little dumbfounded. Is it that serious? She noticed that Klein had a serious expression and Xio was looking at her nervously. Conse was thoughtful. She turned her head and looked at Old Blue sitting on the bed. The old man's reaction was not that big... She tried to recall and said:

"I've been working with Xio lately, and I haven't been to any salons or parties... I don't remember the man on the wanted list... Did I run into him when I went out to buy breakfast? I'm not sure...

"But what I saw seemed to be just a simple black cross, not the upside-down man you mentioned... It shouldn't be that serious, right?"

Klein thought about it carefully, but still felt uneasy. He wondered if he could use the excuse of going to the bathroom to do some divination. At this time, he heard Old Blue's old and powerful voice:

"It's actually very simple. I've heard you guys discussing 'divination' for a long time. It just so happens that we have a real fortune teller here, as well as a fortune telling enthusiast. Well, let Fors try to divine whether the dream will bring her danger. How about that?"

Klein slapped his head and said with a look of realization:
"Good idea! I was just thinking that divination involving secret existences would most likely be interfered with or backfired... But according to Old Blue, only divining for personal safety is equivalent to bypassing the danger. Moreover, in mysticism, divination involving personal safety is the most difficult to be interfered with by external forces. This is a spiritual instinct, so the chance of divination success is very high. You can give it a try."

"Is it possible to do this?" Hugh and Conse were both a little confused. Could divination be done to this extent?
Fors' eyes lit up. She had decided to learn divination and divine for her safety every morning before leaving the house. She said quickly:
"Okay! Klein! Well, you can just call me Fors. It's always more common for ladies to be called ladies. Teacher Moretti! Please teach me divination!"

Old Blue smiled like an auntie. Why did he feel that Fors had become more active and lively? Could it be...

Klein felt that addressing her as Ms. was respectful, but since they were friends, it would be a bit artificial to add Ms. when addressing her by her real name. For example, he would never address Melissa as "Sister Melissa"... Well, maybe when writing a letter? He nodded and said, "I see, Fors, which method do you want to use for divination? For beginners, I recommend pendulum divination and tarot divination. These two methods are simple and the symbols are easy to interpret."

Fors nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Suddenly, a memory flashed through her mind, and she said unconsciously, "Astrology... I want to use astrology... Uh, is there such a divination method?"

Xio immediately turned his head and looked out the window. Backlund was still experiencing the usual dense fog today. Not to mention during the day, even at night, you couldn't see the stars! Fors must have had a problem with his brain!
Klein said in surprise:

“Astrology… is fine, but divination with a star chart is very complicated, requiring the diviner to know how to reversely calculate the states of the planets and constellations. Only in this way can a correct star chart be drawn to interpret fate… I can help draw the star chart, but that’s like me doing the divination… the effect will be discounted.

"Other methods in astrology either require a specific time or require the assistance of a professional crystal ball. Well, for some reason I don't use astrology often, so I don't always have a crystal ball... because pendulum and dream divination are more cost-effective."

——Because I can't afford it! Klein thought to himself, can I apply for a better crystal ball later? Well, this is much more expensive than a pendulum...

Fors sensed something strange and said quickly, "Sorry! Let's use the 'Pendulum Method' you recommended, which even novices can learn! I think this divination method is great!"

Klein held his expression tight, untied the yellow crystal pendulum with a silver chain from his left wrist, and began to explain the specific operation steps.

……

Fors held the silver chain in one hand, allowing the pure yellow crystal to almost stick to the paper with the divination words. After using meditation to focus her thoughts, she began to recite silently:
"Yesterday's dream will put me in danger."

……

After repeating it seven times, she opened her eyes and looked forward. The yellow crystal pendant didn't move at all. The scene became a little awkward.

Klein looked at the panicked Fors and said hurriedly, "Don't worry. I told you, if there is no reaction, just repeat the previous process. You are not a professional fortune teller, so you need to stay focused."

Only then did Fors calm down and start his second attempt.

Suddenly, something seemed to appear in her mind, like a card. On the card was a figure in a red robe, with a scepter in his right hand pointing to the sky and his left index finger pointing to the ground. In front of him was a table with a scepter, a holy grail, a sword, and coins...

In the Tarot deck, the "Magician" card in the Major Arcana!

Whoohoo!
The citrine pendant began to drive the silver chain to rotate counterclockwise, faster and faster...it even turned like a fan, leaving an afterimage!
Klein was stunned. What was going on? Was this divination? Am I a fake fortune teller?
"Shit!" Old Blue was also shocked. He had never heard that the pendulum could be used as a fan. He jumped off the bed and jumped to Fors' side. He grabbed her hand holding the pendulum with his right hand and accurately pinched the yellow crystal pendant with his left hand, interrupting the divination.
