Chapter 700 Two Prophecies

　　In the first game, it was still Hoshimi Shota who came first.

　　This time the game was a simple guessing game, and to Lin Qiye’s surprise, Hoshimi Shota ended up winning over Wu Ji.

　　Seeing Hoshimi Shota’s excited expression, as well as Wu Ji’s smirking demeanor, Lin Qiye could basically guess that Wu Ji was letting off steam.

　　As a strong person with the ability to spy on destiny, how could she lose to a high school student in a guessing game?

　　However, judging from the fact that the Takehime was letting the water out, she still cared about Hoshimi Shota’s feelings……. Could it be that the rumor that Amamiya Haruhide had said, was true?

　　Lin Qiye looked at the simple and childish Hoshimi Shota, and then at Wu Ji who was sitting on the side with a smile on her face, her expression subtle.

　　”Next, it’s our turn.” Wu Ji turned her head to look at Lin Qiye, “Then, Lin Qiye, are you ready to start today’s game?”

　　”Ready.”

　　”Today’s game is …… guessing heads and tails.” Takeshi pulled out a coin and handed it to Hoshimi Shota, who was sitting beside her, and said, “We’ll guess heads and tails first, then Shota will flip the coin, and the person who ultimately guesses correctly the side that faces up when it lands on the ground wins.”

　　Is it simply a game of luck ……

　　It seems like the Wookiee, this one, wants to win very badly, huh?

　　The corners of Lin Qiye’s mouth rose slightly, it was just a pity that this game was also right up his alley!

　　”Good.”

　　”To be fair, why don’t you guess a side first, and I’ll guess the side you pick left over.” Wu Ji graciously handed over the first hand to Lin Qiye.

　　”Good.” Lin Qiye nodded, “I guess that it stands on the ground.”

　　Wu Ji: ……?

　　Wu Ji froze in place for a moment, “Are you sure? Standing on the ground?”

　　”I’m sure.”

　　”…… Okay, then I’ll guess literally face up.”

　　Both of them turned their heads to Hoshimi Shota at the same time.

　　The latter gulped, looking a little nervous, clutching the coin in his hand, seemingly weighing its weight, trying to get this coin to stand on the ground …… was difficult for him ah!

　　”It’s okay, feel free to throw it.” Lin Qiye saw the thoughts in his mind and laughed.

　　With Merlin backing him up, Lin Qiye didn’t think he would lose, knowing that the current Merlin was no longer the crazy Merlin who had just entered a mental hospital, that was a true God of Magic and Prophecy who had regained 90% of his strength!

　　Hoshimi Shota nodded, took a deep breath, and flipped the coin in his hand upwards.

　　A faint aura flickered in Wu Ji’s eyes, once again confirming that the fateful trajectory she had seen was correct, and her heart instantly relaxed.

　　This time, Lin Qiye couldn’t win against her.

　　This thought of hers had just risen when a strong gust of wind poured into the house from the not-yet-mended wall, blowing the coins in mid-air gently, their trajectory slightly deflecting as they fluttered and fell towards the ground!

　　Clang clang clang–!

　　The coin bounced twice on the ground, rolled for a while, and finally stuck straight up in the gap between the tatami mats, standing there steadily!

　　Wu Ji’s pupils suddenly contracted.

　　She looked up at Lin Qiye, her eyes filled with shock and incomprehension.

　　She didn’t understand why the trajectory of fate that she had clearly predicted had suddenly changed. Even if Lin Qiye had gotten his hands dirty during the coin fly, she should have been able to predict it, but why did she not see anything this time?

　　Feeling Wu Ji’s gaze, Lin Qiye smiled faintly and didn’t say anything.

　　Praise the God of Magic!

　　”It’s really standing up!!!” Hoshimi Shota excitedly stood up from the ground, “Won two games in a row! Two chances for the prophecy!”

　　Muji gazed at Lin Qiye for a few moments and realized that she couldn’t see through this man at all, after a long time, she slowly averted her gaze and let out a long sigh.

　　I can’t molest Shota today ah ……

　　”Alright then, you guys need to listen up.” Two strange shimmering lights flashed in the Wookiee’s golden eyes as she paused for a moment and slowly opened her mouth:

　　”These two prophecies are: ‘At the bottom of the stone statue of the Loxin Woman lies the key to escaping the realm of the dead’, and ‘At the end of the River of Aurora sits the Supreme Being that exists in the past and the future’.”

　　After hearing these two sentences, Lin Qiye and Amamiya Haruhide were both stunned.

　　What the heck were these two prophecies …… talking about?

　　At first glance, it was impossible to know what they were talking about.

　　”Prophecies only have a 50% accuracy rate, I think you guys should be aware of that.” Wookiee added, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you the correct prophecy, it’s a flaw of the blade itself, I’m just the soul of the blade, I can’t change it.”

　　”I see.” Amamiya Haruhide nodded, “These two prophecies, they are already enough.”

　　After obtaining the two prophecies, Lin Qiye and Amamiya Haruhui immediately packed up their things and left the house.

　　Since that location was far away from here, and the two of them had diving equipment with them, Amamiya Haruhui rented a van in advance and drove towards the coastline in the night.

　　”Those two prophecies, what do you think?” Amamiya Haruhui asked Lin Qiye with a frown while driving.

　　Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, “These two prophecies, the first one’s directionality is clear, referring to the location of the key that escaped from somewhere, there’s nothing to say about this, the problem is the second prophecy ……”

　　”‘At the end of the River of Aurora sits the Supreme Being that exists in the past and future’.” Amamiya Haruhide repeated the prophecy, somewhat puzzled, “The end of the River of Aurora should refer to a direction, but what does the phrase ‘Supreme Being that exists in the past and future’…… mean? ”

　　”Literally, it should refer to a supreme being that we can’t touch.” Lin Qiye muttered, “But doesn’t ‘existing in the past and the future’…… mean only existing in the past and the future, but not in the present?”

　　”A supreme existence that does not exist in the present?” Amamiya Haruhide shook his head, “I still can’t understand it.”

　　”I also can’t deduce what exactly this sentence is talking about.” Lin Qiye sighed, “Perhaps, we’ll get the answer once we enter the ruins.”

　　The vehicle sped along the road at night, and after about an hour or so, it slowly came to a stop near a beach on the eastern coast of Hokkaido.

　　Two figures got out of the vehicle and walked to the beach, the hazy moonlight sprinkled on the shimmering sea, shimmering like crushed silver.

　　”The relic, it’s in the sea?” Lin Qiye asked.

　　”Well, at the bottom of the deep sea, two kilometers forward from this direction, is the entrance to that relic.”

　　Lin Qiye nodded, “Put on your equipment.”

　　The two of them put on the diving device they bought under the moonlight, took a step to meet the crushed silver sea surface, and walked forward step by step, a wave hit from afar, and in the next moment, the two of them completely disappeared above the surface of the sea.

　　The coast under the moon, once again fell into a dead silence.
