Chapter 387 – 387. God’S Atlantis
387. God’s Atlantis
District 2,671, the Labyrinth of Fate, is governed by Millennium Duke, one of the Imperial Dukes.
It’s one of the wealthiest cities in the Empire and is also known as the City of Divination. More than 30% of the people living in this district are diviners. However, less than 1% of them are true diviners.
Beneath the city lies the Labyrinth of Fate. The labyrinth isn’t a dangerous place.
The city’s prosperity is due to its location and the Labyrinth of Fate. For 300,000 pennies per person, one can enter the Labyrinth of Fate. It’s said that you can glimpse a part of your destiny there.
‘That’s just a rumor. It’s practically the same as getting a fortune reading.’
This district doesn’t appear in the original story. However, it does exist in the setting.
As I tried to enter the city, soldiers in full armor blocked my way.
“Excuse me, could you please identify yourself?”
“I’m an inspector.”
“What?!”
“Look. This is what Duke Baldert gave me.”
I showed the soldiers my inspector’s appointment. The soldiers swallowed hard after glancing at the document. Even though this was Millennium Duke’s territory, they couldn’t completely ignore an inspector appointed by another duke.
“Ah, we’ve confirmed it. May we ask what brings you here, Inspector Sung Yoojin?”
“I came for personal business. Is my presence unwelcome?”
“No, not at all. We welcome Inspector Sung Yoojin.”
“I don’t intend to get deeply involved… There shouldn’t be any problems, right?”
“No, sir. We always adhere to the rules!”
The soldier spoke with a voice full of military discipline.
“Then, carry on.”
“Um, Inspector.”
“What is it?”
“If you plan to meet with the nobles of the city council, I would like to be your guide.”
This district isn’t governed by a single person but by a city council made up of multiple nobles.
Getting tangled up in such a situation could be very troublesome. It’s like having multiple lords for one territory. The power struggles between the nobles of the city council must be intense.
“Don’t you think it’s presumptuous for a mere soldier to say that?”
“Would it be alright if I wasn’t a mere soldier?”
I asked, looking directly at him.
“…Who are you?”
“My introduction was late. I am Romreng Fishian, the second son of the Fishian family.”
“Why is a noble doing a soldier’s work?”
“Because I am the second son.”
His words carried a lot of meaning. He might have been pushed into the military after losing a power struggle with his older brother, or he might have given up power willingly.
I pondered for a moment and then nodded.
“Alright. I’ll let you guide me for now.”
“Thank you.”
He said something to the other soldiers and then approached me. The other soldiers didn’t seem to have any complaints. Well, Romreng was a noble, after all.
“Is there anything you desire, Inspector?”
“Since I’ve come to the City of Divination, shouldn’t I start with divination? I don’t know how much it will help me, though.”
He scratched his head, looking troubled by my words.
“As this place is called the City of Divination, there are all sorts of divination methods. Cards, magic, lotteries, face reading, dancers… There’s even a method where they make monsters fight each other and use the result to tell fortunes.”
One of Romreng’s words caught my interest.
“Dancers?”
“Dancers perform dances to tell fortunes. It’s a popular method, but… to be honest, the reliability of the divination isn’t very high. I recommend card readings. Common people think highly of magical divination, but in reality, magic is often just flashy and lacks substance.”
“I’ll go with the dancers.”
“…What? The dancers’ divination isn’t very reliable…”
“I said I’ll go with the dancers.”
“……”
Romreng closed his mouth. Then, with a look of realization, he nodded.
“I know some excellent dancers in the city. They’re beautiful and popular. However… it costs quite a bit of money.”
“Ha… Did I look like I don’t have money?”
“Ah, no, not at all!”
Romreng quickly denied my words. But his eyes were shaking, so he must have thought I was broke. It wasn’t unreasonable for him to think that. My current attire was just comfortable clothes and a coat.
“I’ll show you my wealth.”
I reached into my coat pocket.
Clink, clink!
“H-huh!”
Romreng’s jaw dropped in surprise. My hands were full of gold and jewels. From gems the size of a pinky finger to a dazzling gold necklace. It was blinding.
“Oh, that’s an incredible amount of wealth. Amazing, Inspector.”
It was the result of collecting all the bribes I had received from the nobles and merchants in the towns and cities I had passed through. Those who didn’t bribe me were thoroughly inspected until they cried and offered bribes.
“I have more money in my subspace. So don’t worry about money and guide me to the best dancer.”
“You even have a subspace… My judgment was way off. I will guide you to the best dancer! Inspector!”
Romreng’s eyes began to shine excessively. I could guess what he was thinking, but I pretended not to know. If he guided me to my satisfaction, I was thinking of giving him some benefits.
‘If he introduces me to an orc-like dancer… I’ll use all my authority to kill him.’
Romreng, sensing my murderous intent, was startled.
“H-huh! Is something wrong?!”
“I just thought of something unpleasant… It’s nothing you need to worry about. Just guide me.”
“Yes! Inspector! This way!”
I followed him. As befitting its name as the City of Divination, there were many tourists. Among them were those who had come to see their fate through the ‘Labyrinth of Fate.’
Romreng led me to a building in a corner of the city. At the entrance of the building, a burly man armed with an axe and armor stood, exuding a sense of pressure. He wasn’t as strong as me, but he wasn’t weak enough to be openly ignored.
“Welcome. The entrance fee is 100,000 pennies. That’s 200,000 pennies for two people.”
The burly man spoke in a surprisingly gentle tone.
“I’m not the one getting my fortune read, it’s the inspector. Inspector, I’ll wait here.”
“You’re an inspector?!”
“Quiet. I’m not here for work today, I’m just here to get my fortune read. Here, 100,000 pennies.”
I handed him 100,000 pennies, worth about 1 million won in Korean currency, and entered the building.
“Inspector, if you cause a disturbance inside…”
“Disturbance?”
I looked at the burly man. He broke out in a cold sweat and lowered his head.
“…It was a slip of the tongue. Please forgive me.”
Even if the burly man was stronger than me, he would have bowed his head to me. My position as an inspector was enough to make even nobles tremble.
‘Well, to be precise, the power of an inspector comes from the powerful figure behind them.’
And Elena Baldert behind me was one of the most powerful figures in the Empire.
Step, step.
Whether it was intentional or not, the inside of the building was dark, with only the candles on the walls quietly illuminating the surroundings. It seemed they had created a mysterious atmosphere.
At the end of the hallway was an antique door.
Creak.
I opened the door and went inside.
I was about to continue walking forward, but I had to stop because I was blocked by iron bars.
‘Did they put up iron bars to prevent people from touching the dancers?’
A dark orange light poured down from the ceiling, allowing me to see my surroundings. Strange patterns on the walls and floor, small burning incense sticks, and meaningless decorations were everywhere.
However, what caught my eye was a woman in the center.
She was a woman with bright blonde hair. Her hair was neatly parted, which made her beautiful forehead stand out and look sexy. Her eyes were amber, and her nose and mouth below were covered with cloth.
‘Judging by her eyes and facial lines, she’s a stunning beauty.’
Her body was covered in important areas. However, everything else was exposed. Her full breasts were covered by a piece of cloth, and her white thighs were visible between the silk skirt.
“What brings you here?”
“I’m curious if I can have sex with you today.”
“…What? You must be mistaken. This isn’t a brothel. I am a dancer, a diviner who uses dance to tell fortunes. I’ll do it once for you, but if you’re rude after that, I’ll call for help.”
The dancer warned me as if she was used to it. She hadn’t had time to be informed about my status.
Clink, clink!
I took out gold and jewels from my pocket.
The dancer’s eyes widened. Greed filled her eyes.
“I’m curious if I can have sex with you today.”
“……I’ll read your fortune.”
The dancer began to dance.
It was a dance without music.
But it was a dance that was enough to draw people’s attention. Her movements were captivating. I couldn’t take my eyes off her gestures, and I was involuntarily tense at her dangerously moving legs.
Sweat began to form on her body, and the heat in the space rose.
“Wait.”
“Yes?”
She frowned. She didn’t seem pleased to be interrupted while dancing.
“You look hot.”
“No, I’m not hot…”
She stopped speaking. It was because I had put my hand full of gold coins through the iron bars.
Clatter!
The gold coins spilled onto the floor.
The dancer looked at the gold coins and swallowed hard.
“…You’re right. It’s hot today.”
She took off her fluttering skirt and started dancing again. I kept throwing gold coins through the bars. As the gold coins piled up on the floor, the dancer moved closer to me and took off her clothes. Her dance had become a striptease.
When she took off her top, her firm breasts jiggled. The pink nipples on her white breasts had hardened with excitement.
I continued to put in gold coins, and the dancer, who was now within reach, took off her panties. Her neatly groomed golden pubic hair and beautiful pink pussy were revealed before my eyes.
As I reached out my left hand towards her pussy, the dancer placed her pussy on my left hand while dancing. I touched her soft pussy and asked.
“What was the result of the divination?”
“Ahhn… It will happen as you wish. Can you tell me where you’re staying?”
“I don’t think there’s a need for that.”
I got up from my seat, took off my pants, and approached the iron bars.
My erect dick poked out through the iron bars. A gold necklace was wrapped around it.
“…I’ve never seen anyone with such incredible luck as you, sir.”
“My luck is pretty amazing.”
The dancer reached out her hand. She took the necklace wrapped around my dick, put it around her neck, spread her pussy with her fingers, and put my dick inside.
“Haaah!”
I sucked on her bulging breasts, which were pressed against the iron bars, and caressed her waist.
Squelch, squelch.
In the quiet space, the sound of sticky water and moans echoed.
The dancer moved her hips as if she was dancing, and then she changed her position. She turned her back to me and presented it to me.
“Sir, your will is important in divination. But if you don’t want to, you can leave it to me.”
“I don’t dislike it. I have to actively help in seeing my fortune.”
I put my hands through the bars and grabbed her attractive hips. I could feel her firm buttocks and toned abs through my fingers.
The dancer’s white buttocks were pressed against the iron bars, and her bulging pink pussy was wide open, dripping with fluids and tempting me.
I thrust my dick deep into her pussy.
“Haaaaaah! Sir’s thing…! It reaches all the way to the end! This… This is the first time… Aaaah!”
“There aren’t many women who accept my dick so easily… You have an excellent pussy.”
“Haaah! Do you… Do you like me?”
“I like you.”
“Ahhn…! I’m ready to be yours!”
“No, you’re about 10% short of being my fuck toy.”
“That…! Ah!”
After enjoying the dancer’s pussy for about 40 minutes, I moved on to find another dancer.
