Chapter 109: Tarot Card Divination
"Are you...... Trelawney of Ravenclaw? Xiwen looked at the strange pair of silver pupils and asked.
Ever since his last interview with Grindelwald at the Opéra Garnier, Shevin has been curious about his prophetic powers. And this Trelawney seems to have inherited her grandmother Kassandra's gift of prophecy, and was able to pinpoint the location of Xiwen's soul body every time.
"Sit." Shivin gestured to the seat across from the box and motioned for Trelawney to sit down.
Trelawney hesitated, nodded slightly, and sat down across from Shevin.
Looking at the silver-haired little witch in front of him, Xiwen suddenly smiled wickedly. Later, the ghost Xiwen climbed from the ceiling of the ghost hall and came to the main tower of the castle.
"So, do you know where I am now, Miss Trelawney?" Xiwen curled the corners of his mouth and asked softly.
Trelawney frowned and asked coldly, "You have the ability to deceive the Celestial Purpose?" ”
"Tianmu?" Xiwen raised an eyebrow. "If you mean these eyes of yours, I don't think I've ever deceived them."
"The eyes of heaven don't just refer to my eyes." Trelawney shook her head and said in a cold voice. "Tianmu refers to the ability to see the truth and see through the future."
"Then why do you think I can deceive your so-called 'Tianmu'?" Xiwen asked curiously.
"Because I can't see you clearly." Trelawney said coldly what she had said at Ravenclaw Tower.
"Is that another general statement?" Xiwen narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice. "Miss Trelawney, why don't you explain it to me in detail."
Trelawney glanced at Shivin again with her strange pupils, then nodded slowly.
"Since I was born, I have had the ability to see through the world around me. Growing up, I was able to predict everything that happened around me. I have to say, it's boring. She whispered.
"The Ronin Who Started from Douluo"
"As long as other people are within a certain range of me, I know exactly what is going to happen to them in the short term. You are the only one, from the perspective of the Heavenly Eye, you are like a hole shrouded in fog, unable to see clearly and guess clearly. ”
"When I tried to distinguish you carefully, a thread was connected from your body to another location. It tells me all the time that the real you are there. ”
"So can you tell me, how did you do it?" Trelawney's thin lips pursed together and asked softly.
"All I can tell you is that I don't know myself."
Shiwen shook his head, lost in thought.
In fact, Shivin already roughly understood what Trelawney and Grindelwald were curious about themselves. But he didn't want to share the secret with anyone else.
Trelawney sensed that Shewin was not in front of her several times, and she sensed the location of Shevan's soul body. According to her, Shewin is like a void from the perspective of the Celestial Eye, unable to be perceived by the prophetic powers.
In this way, the Celestial Eye is more like an ability to look directly at the soul. Through the souls of others, judge their future direction in an indescribable way.
In just six months, Shewin had met three prophetic people.
The first is Nick Lemay, who used a crystal ball to foresee Grindelwald's attempt to burn the whole of Paris, and arrived in time to prevent the catastrophe from happening; The other was Gellert Grindelwald, whose eyes could see fragments of the future, and Sven saw a Muggle war scene he showed at the Garnier Opera.
Finally, there was Manto Trelawney in front of her, who could see exactly where Shivin's soul was.
So, how much can prophecy see? If the prophetic power is really that strong, how can they fight against Grindelwald, who can foresee the future?
Thinking of this, Xiwen looked at Trelawney with some distress and asked, "So, can you make a prophecy about me?" ”
"I said, I can't see you clearly." Trelawney frowned and said dissatisfied. "Don't think about prophecy or anything."
Just as Xiwen was disappointed, she suddenly spoke up again: "But divination may be possible!" ”
"I also want to know if a person like you, who can deceive the Heavenly Purpose, can be successfully divined." Trelawney stared at Shevin with her strange silver eyes, her tone solemn.
Xiwen was numb by her scalp, and quickly nodded, signaling her to start quickly.
Trelawney skillfully pulled a deck of cards out of his pocket and unfolded them on the table.
"Draw three cards and place them on your left, middle, and right-hand side, and they will represent your past, present, and future." She said to Xiwen.
"Tarot cards?" Xiwen looked at the purple deck of cards on the table upside down, and suddenly became interested.
Even though there was no difference between the back of the cards, he still picked and chose the three cards that were pleasing to the eye and placed them in three different positions.
Seeing the cards that Shevin had put away, Trelawney nodded.
First, she opened the card on Xiwen's left -
The card depicts an angel with blond hair and white wings behind him, depicting the angel blowing a trumpet to redeem the dead who hear the music.
"Your past is—judgment, and the relevant word is resurrection." Trelawney whispered.
Hearing the word "resurrection", Xiwen's heart trembled slightly. He doesn't know if the secret of his rebirth into this world will be unearthed.
Under Shivin's nervous gaze, Trelawney began to decipher the card.
"The judgment card means that your old ideas about life are dead, and you are accepting your inner call to live a more meaningful life." She said.
"It's very general!" Xiwen breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
"Divination itself can only know big and broad things, and cannot be as specific as prophecy." Trelawney shook her head and flipped over the middle card again.
The tarot card in the middle, with a giant spinning roulette wheel drawn on the deck.
"Yours is now - the wheel of fortune, and the related word is reincarnation." Trelawney said.
'Why is it related to reincarnation again?' Shewin lifted up the heart he had just put down again.
"The 'wheel of fortune' is constantly spinning, and new opportunities and variables arise at any time, and you may encounter many variables in the past year." Trelawney explained.
Xiwen breathed a sigh of relief again, nodded slowly, and thought to himself, "After all, Grindelwald wants to make some big moves, and it's normal to have variables. ’
Trelawney also seemed to be a little impatient, and without waiting for Xiwen to react, he directly opened the tarot card on his right hand -
The board depicts a black death knight on a white horse holding a banner representing the plague.
"Your future is—Death!"
