Chapter 56: Night Talk and Divination

If it were him, there would be no problem.

Valera closed her eyes and continued to pretend to be asleep, wanting to see what the guy wanted to do.

Crane stood in the doorway for a moment.

He returned from the bathroom downstairs, and as he passed by Valeera's door, he somehow reached over and tried to open it.

Crane didn't expect it at all, and he opened the door with ease.

After much hesitation, Crane walked in lightly under an inexplicable driving force.

Crane came to Valeera's bedside and stood quietly, gazing at Valeera's disguised sleeping face by the crimson moonlight that peeked through the window.

After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't help but reach out and touch Valeera's cheek.

Very smooth...... It's resilient......

Crane withdrew his right hand and subconsciously placed it under his nose.

Well, and a little fragrant......

Crane held his breath and slowly pressed down his upper body, getting closer and closer to Valeera's pretty face......

Finally, his lips touched Valeera's cheek.

With Valeera's covert permission, Crane "secretly" kisses her.

The pounding heart in his chest and the feeling of being electrocuted just now made Crane feel a strong sense of stimulation and guilt when he stood up straight.

There were many things he wanted to do, but Crane knew the measure, and after taking a few deep breaths to calm down, he was about to leave the room.

He walked softly back to the door, and was about to open it when he heard Valeera's voice.

"Huh? Crane, why are you in my room? โ€

It wasn't loud, but it scared Crane into a thrill.

When it's over, she's going to think of me like that horny nasty man...... Crane looked back with a miserable face and began to stumble in his explanation.

"I'm sorry, I ...... I came in by accident. โ€

He shook his head and waved his hand, the expression on his face was quite complicated, some were ashamed, some were anxious, some were uneasy, and some regret...... In short, a mixed weird expression.

"I didn't ...... anything I didn't hold back, so I just touched your face...... Well, and a sneak kiss, right...... I'm sorry. โ€

Discouraged, Crane lowered his eyebrows and bowed his hands, waiting for Valeera's verdict in a state of apprehension.

He didn't think Valera would forgive himself, after all, the atmosphere of the Rune Kingdom was still very conservative on the whole, and he still sneaked in without permission, which was simply an added crime.

"It's okay." A crisp voice sounded.

Crane looked up, his brown eyes full of surprise and surprise, Valera actually forgave herself!

"You must have something to say to me, right?" Valeera propped herself up and leaned back on the head of the bed, gesturing to the wooden chair in front of the dresser, "Come on, sit here." โ€

Of course, Crane will not refuse the invitation of his sweetheart.

He picked up the chair and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Seeing Valeera wearing a light light-colored sleeveless nightdress, revealing large areas of white and tender skin, he felt a fever in his cheeks.

Seeing that Crane's eyes wandered and he didn't speak, Valera had no choice but to take the initiative to stir up the topic.

"I've already paid the rent until the end of July, so you can prepare for the interview at the University of Tingen."

"Oh...... Good. โ€

Crane answered, hesitantly asking, "Valeera, can you tell me more...... Your thing? โ€

"I want to know more about you, and I want to help you solve your difficulties."

Valilla thought about what she could reveal and said:

"Actually, I'm not named Kaldwin, and I'm not even called Valeera."

Crane didn't rush into a chime in, patiently waiting for Valera's next step.

"I also have an identity called Emily Vecchi."

"About ten years ago, the Vicky family was still noble, even if it was only the lowest lord."

"But after an accident, only one of the Vicky family's illegitimate sons, Kiri Vicky, was left to inherit the title, but they also had to face a large amount of foreign debt."

"After settling the debts with difficulty, because of the loss of land, Kiri Vicky's title was withdrawn and demoted to a baron, and the Vicky family fell into despair, so poor that only a garden villa remained."

"You say, Emily, who is a fellow mother, should help her brother and revive the family?"

"Of course." Crane nodded, "But it's going to be hard." โ€

He didn't think that Valeera - or should she call Emily? โ€”โ€”There is still such a big goal hidden in his heart, and he is burdened with such pressure.

Moreover, he doesn't seem to be able to help with this goal.

"It's okay, just do your best."

Valera shook her head with a smile and said, "Russell the Great once said, 'There is nothing difficult in the world that cannot be done, as long as you can keep working hard to achieve it.'" I think that makes a lot of sense. โ€

Crane felt that Valeera had said this to herself, and she was speaking it to him.

She believed that it could be done with such a difficult thing as restoring the title, so why couldn't I take my brother and sister and live a good life in Beckland?

As long as you can do this...... Crane cheered himself up in his heart.

"Valeera's name has a special meaning, and I don't want to lose it," Valeera continued, after a short silence, "So, my most recognizable name is probably Valeera Vicky. โ€

"Crane, don't forget."

"I won't forget it!" Crane replied quickly.

"Crane, why don't I do a divination for you?" Seeing Crane's performance, Valilla had a temporary idea to give Crane a tarot divination.

She pointed to Crane and pulled out a deck of tarot cards from the desk drawer.

"Think about your divination questions, and then shuffle the cards like I did." Valera explained, demonstrating, "Remember, divination is a simple question. โ€

Crane thought for a moment and said, "Then divination whether my interview at the University of Tingen will go well, is this okay?" โ€

"Yes, that's it." Valera smiled and nodded,

She had already thought of a question and was waiting for it to be suggested later, only to find that Crane had asked for a better question than she had thought.

Crane was somewhat awkwardly cutting, shuffling, and discarding.

Valera picked up one from the top, and instead of instructing Crane, she helped him spin and flip the card.

The flip is an upside-down, reversed "Fool" card.

To rule out chance, Valilla overrides all scrying techniques and asks Crane to draw two more cards from the remaining cards.

Crane did so, and Valeera flipped them over.

Sure enough, it's the "Magician" card and the "Lover" card!

Valeera's face remained unchanged, but there was a sigh in her heart, that one was worthy of being a great being known as the "Destiny Marker".

She smiled slightly awkwardly and said:

"This, it may be that my divination is wrong, and the result does not count this time."

"Haha, how could you fail your interview, I must have made a mistake in divination."

Then, Valera changes the subject and teaches Crane the "correct" attitude towards divinationโ€”

Good results can be believed, and bad results should not be done.

We talked for about an hour, and when Valera spoke, Crane reluctantly left her room.

Tomorrow is the time to separate.
