Chapter 313 – Date in Itaewon (4)
Seo Joo-hwan, who confirmed Gabriela’s S-class talent, was immersed in trouble.
‘A total of 10 pieces are needed to create one S-class talent.’
Meanwhile, he has obtained 5 pieces so far.
He had to gather 5 more in the future to put the pieces together to make an S-class talent stone.
‘But it’s a bit of a chore to hit another woman in front of Kahi…….’
Aren’t you in the middle of a date? Of course, Min Ga-hee also knew that he had several other women, but showing her the appearance of cheating on her other women in front of her was disrespectful to her.
After a brief thought, Seo Ju-hwan shook his head.
‘I’m still anxious, but I can’t make it more bothersome.’
At least while we’re together, let’s love her the most. He thought it was the least courtesy he had for women who liked him.
‘Let’s visit again alone next time.’
Of course, he didn’t mean to give up.

Min Ga-hee and Gabriella, who returned first, were waiting for Seo Joo-hwan. As he sat down, Min Ga-hee said.
“Brother, they say they even pay for the service.”
“Order?”
Seo Joo-hwan looked at Gabriela with a puzzled expression. It was because it was amazing that she, a Westerner by all accounts, looked after her husband.
Gabriela said with a smile.
“Oriental divination is also fun. I won’t charge you for buying it.”
“It’s good that we do it as a service.”
“Ok. Then tell me the date and time you were born.”
At that, Min Ga-hee let out a surprised sound.
“I don’t know what time it is. Do you know my brother?”
“Me? I know. I was a little bit interested in it in the past.”
Before returning, there was a time when divination-related materials such as fortune telling and tarot were popular in the web novel version, albeit for a very short time. At that time, I was interested and looked for it, but I was curious about the date of birth, so I asked my parents.
Ga-hee Min’s reaction made Gabriela shake her head as if in trouble.
“You shouldn’t know the time you were born. Then only the man who buys it.”
“Well. Are you okay, Gahee?”
“Yes. It was because I came to see the tarot anyway. Just look at the brother who buys it.”
“Okay. I was born on April 11, 1994 at 03:13.”
“Okay. Wait a minute.”
Having said that, Gabriella looked at Seo Ju-hwan’s fortune teller by referring to her Myeong-ri-hak book in her.
He looked at Gabriela with her curious eyes her. The appearance of a woman with platinum blonde hair and purple eyes looking at a book on Myeonglihak was very foreign.
Soon Gabriela opened her mouth.
“The force of the water.”
“I was born with the energy of water. A lot of that too.”
“Usually, the energy of water is connected to life. So, there are many people who live long lives or have many children. In particular, if you have a strong energy, you can be the type to help people around you because you have a deep understanding and a strong tolerance, and you can accumulate wealth and live by having an excellent ability to cope with situations.”
“However, water has an irregular shape, so it changes shape depending on the container it is placed in. What this means is that they are easily assimilated to their surroundings. In other words, you have to get along well with people.”
Gabriella continues her words with a voice that is a bit stiff but pleasant to listen to.
However, Seo Ju-hwan, who was listening to the story, gradually lost interest.
‘It’s like this too. Still, I was expecting a bit since the fortuneteller potential level is S.’
I knew roughly, but when I heard the story about the fortune teller myself, I became more and more convinced that it was meaningless. This was the reason why I only watched Saju or Tarot for fun.
‘A word that sounds plausible if you take it roughly.’
This technique is also used a lot in everyday life. In particular, it is a method that appears prominently in personality type tests such as the MBTI, and it refers to writing only sounds that say, “This seems to be true of me” On the result sheet, no matter who reads it.
For example, there are people with INFP tendencies. This person may look at the characteristics of an INFP and think, “Oh, this sounds a bit accurate?” However, even if you look at the results of the opposite tendency, such as ‘ESTJ’, ‘Huh? You’re quite right with me?’
Of course, there will be differences depending on the degree of each person, but most of the test subjects will feel that it is plausible to receive anything if you do not tell them whether they are INFPs or ESTJs, but if you bring them saying that this is your result.
This is the blind spot of ‘confirmation bias’ that everyone has. When a creature called human basically accepts any information, it thinks positively of the information that agrees with their thoughts, and ignores or thinks negatively of the information that does not match.
‘Let’s agree moderately and finish it.’
Seo Joo-hwan listened moderately, trying not to show off his cold heart.
However, as Gabriella’s words gradually changed while she was solving the fortune teller, he had no choice but to prick his ears her.
“Ugh. As I said before, you have a lot of water energy. It’s not just too much, it’s too much, and it lacks the blessings that people with water energy usually enjoy. And nobody has too much luck.”
“… Okay?”
He couldn’t help but show interest when he said there was no luck.
What was he like before returning?
Due to the mistake of the underworld, he suffered all kinds of bad luck. Thanks to this, his naturally lively personality his changed to timid and dark, and he ended up cutting off human relationships and locking himself in his room.
However, Gabriela’s words that followed hit the core.
“A person with a lot of water energy is easy to live a life that is different from his her or her original appearance or personality her as much as it is easy to harmonize with the surroundings. And if you lose your basic self-nature, you can live a life of shadyness for the rest of your life.”
In a way, it was a general statement that could be accepted as insignificant. However, for Seo Joo-hwan, who had already experienced such a life, it was also a shocking remark.
Gabriella frowned and brushed her hair behind his ears and looked at Seo Joo-hwan with a confused face.
“You, Saju are strange. There is a story about living alone for the rest of my life and a story about complicated heterosexual relationships at the same time. And he told me to control my desires well.”
“Do you control your desires?”
“Huh. Don’t do it here As I said, the owner is a bit strange. This is the first time ever.”
Gabriella was about to end his words her abruptly.
Seo Joo-hwan, who was starting to get interested, asked back out of curiosity.
“How did you come out? Please tell me at least roughly.”
“I’d rather not listen. It came out completely nonsense. To the point where I could forget everything I’ve said so far.”
“It’s okay.”
“Okay. I respect your choice.”
Said Gabriella.
“Her energy threw her body out of balance. The innate life energy will be polluted and fatten you up. Also, bad luck that is strangely strong will lead you to despair. Not only you, but also the people around you. Not to mention the woman, there is no one left by her side of her. No, in this case, should I interpret it as pushing myself away?”
“…….”
“And crucially, you’ll be dead within 10 years at the latest.”
As Gabriela continued to speak, Seo Ju-hwan’s face hardened. He clenched his fists under his desk, feeling his goose bumps rise behind his back.
‘Crazy, that’s all right. Even the fact that I couldn’t lose weight no matter how much I exercised before returning, and that my innate misfortune even affected the people around me. Even the timing of death was similarly matched.’
This is the level of reciting fate through the form of saju.
‘Then what about the things you said before? What did you say earlier?’
Longevity, fertility, accumulation of wealth, assimilation to the environment, get along well with people, control your desires, be alone all your life, promiscuous heterosexual relationships.
The words I heard at first glance were broken into word units and floated around in my head.
At that time, Min Ga-hee, who was next to me, grunted with a blank expression.
“It came out really strange. Right, brother?”
“Uh? Yes?”
“It is. My brother didn’t gain weight and he wasn’t unhappy. And let alone make the people around you unhappy, you help them. Thanks to my older brother, I also found a new career path…….”
Min Ga-hee, who blurted out the end of her words, glanced at him and said.
“Uh, so don’t worry. My brother is dead, why is he dead? Ten years from now, I’m in my early to mid-thirties!”
“… Haha. Is that so? Thank you, Gahee.”
Seo Joo-hwan let go of laughter with the feeling that something that had been clogged his jaw his was released. He listened as if he was possessed for a moment, but like Min Ga-hee said, there are more things that Gabriella has told him that do not apply to him.
‘Fate has changed.’
No more alone, no more unhappiness. Let alone gaining weight, I have a strong body with a height of over 180. The same goes for the death that occurred nine years into the future. There is no future where he gets hit by a car and dies.
Gabriela looks at the two of them sighing a little and smiles as if they are cute.
“Whoops. So you said I think it came out of a mess. Cute guests, don’t be too obsessed with divination.”
“Haha…….”
Seo Joo-hwan laughed awkwardly. It was because a person with S-class ‘divination’ talent was not very persuasive when he said that.
*
Gabriela wondered deep inside her.
‘That’s strange. There shouldn’t be anything wrong with the interpretation.’
However, the man in front of me is completely different from the bar that appeared in the saju.
He doesn’t seem to have anyone around, and he doesn’t seem to gain weight. Aside from losing his body balance, he has a much better physique than the average person. His appearance was also more on the handsome side than ugly. Of course, she was inferior to the celebrities and business people who flirted with her, but she said.
‘I don’t even feel bad luck. Rather, I think I was born with very strong luck… Even just being together has a charm that attracts people.’
The part corresponding to the four weeks pool was not seen at all. On the contrary, there was even a strange liking for the unknown attraction. To feel this kind of attraction to a man you don’t know…….
‘Could it be this man?’
A tall, dark-haired Asian with thick hands.
A pair of men and women who say they will meet if they read fortunes at a Tarot Cafe in Itaewon.
There are many things that match the contents of fortune telling.
But it is too early to conclude. There were several people who met these conditions among the people I had seen in the past month.
Gabriel opened the tarot cards to confirm.
*
The subject of the tarot reading Min Ga-hee decided to look at was about ‘love’ and ‘career’.
“The more specific the question, the more accurate the answer. Note it.”
In general, tarot readings are not ‘prophecies’ but ‘advice’. The more specific the question, the better, and the more vague the question, the more vague the answer.
Perhaps because Min Ga-hee was conscious of Seo Joo-hwan sitting next to him, Sarang-woon asked vague questions and Jin-roun asked specific questions.
“First, love luck… It is complicatedly twisted.”
“Oh, is that bad?”
“That’s not right. You’ll have a hard time, but the outcome can change for the better depending on the opponent’s choice. And the other person is a noble person to you. I changed my fate, which would have been frustrated, 180 degrees.”
“Wow, wow. Right! Is that good?”
“That is also ambiguous. Overall good, but in the end it’s up to you. You said it would be painful. The key is how wisely you endure the moment. If you can’t stand it and collapse… Well, since you’ve already found your way, breaking up early might be good for your mental health.”
“Ah, we’re not going to break up!?”
“Whoops. I never said a word to break up. Ultimately, it is your choice.”
“Oooooh…….”
Min Ga-hee felt confused as if she didn’t know whether she should be happy or sad.
“Then what about Jinroun?”
“It’s a bit easier to be specific. It also has a little bit to do with love luck.”
“Does it work?”
“The thing that changed after meeting the nobleman is the career path. Don’t you already know I think I may have changed my course last year or so.”
“No, that’s right. It’s amazing to know that.”
“You must have been frustrated on the way you were originally going. But here comes the Reversal card. There’s the Wheel of Fortune. My life changed when I met you. And this card… A change in the environment But I haven’t decided yet and I’m in conflict. Are you thinking about going abroad?”
“Ugh!”
Min Ga-hee sighed in surprise. In fact, she was invited to study abroad by her advisor and teacher to her, a famous composer. Her teacher said that she was a talent that would not rot in Korea, and wanted her to go abroad as soon as possible to gain experience.
Seo Joo-hwan glanced at Min Ga-hee. It was the first time she had heard that she was contemplating her study abroad. At that moment, several thoughts came to mind.
‘I guess I shouldn’t hold on to it… ?’
Now he fully believed in Gabriella’s tarot readings of her. So, when I heard that Min Ga-hee was thinking about studying abroad, I was seriously worried.
Like my heart, I want to hold on to it. But he was the one who knew her brilliant talent her better than anyone else. If her her expert professor her recommended her to study abroad, would n’t it be right for her to let her go? At that moment, several thoughts crossed my mind.
But Gabriella shook her head.
“No, wait a little longer.”
“… Really? Can I?”
“As long as you have talent, opportunities will come many times. Get up now. There is a saying in Korea that it is premature? According to the card, maintaining the status quo is best.”
“Thank god…”
Min Ga-hee let out a sigh of relief as if she was truly fortunate. In fact, even if she said that she would do well to study abroad, she probably would have chosen to stay, but she was relieved to hear this definite answer.
At that time, she had a word thrown at Min Ga-hee, who was relieved.
“Be careful.”
“Yes?”
“As I said earlier, your destiny changed when you met a nobleman. It means that it has changed from the original destiny. But that nobleman is strange.”
“Is this strange?”
“Look at this.”
Gabriela’s finger points to the card.
A card depicting the devil with goat horns and bat wings.
“The combination of a nobleman and a devil is unique. And if you look here, there is an angel. It is said that a nobleman can be a great harm to you, or it can be an irreplaceable fortune.”
“…….”
“I’ll say it again. Be careful. And take care of your mentality. If you make up your mind, there is a high possibility that the end will lead to happiness.”
“Ah, I see…….”
Min Ga-hee swallows a gulp while using an extremity stick.
Sincerely about her tarot readings her from the start, she believed Gabriella like she was completely bewitched.
‘Is this a charm talent? And the devil I think he’s referring to Rust or Lucy… It’s creepy.’
Gabriela’s monotonous speaking skills were by no means excellent. But there was power in her words. As if she bewitched the hearer, she comes to believe the words. Her exotic white blonde hair and mysterious figure An her also played a part in creating her strange atmosphere her.
But that’s for a while.
“Whoops. Kahi, let’s see your point here.”
Widely!
As Gabriela smiled lightly and sorted out her cards, her strange atmosphere her instantly melted away.
And add on.
“Fate can change at any time, and there are tens of thousands of ways. It is the will of a person that determines a variable path, and those who make efforts with a strong will will have good results someday. Please refer to it.”
Truly an astrologer.
In a way, he seemed like a sage.
*
“Now let’s see your fortune.”
It was Seo Joo-hwan’s turn.
He tried to bring up a question he had thought of beforehand.
“Well. I then…”
“Wait. Wait. I’ll take care of your point.”
“Yes?”
“Since I saw the sloppy business owner earlier, I will serve you properly. Hey, Fabio.”
Gabriela reached out her hand behind her and called for someone. Then she brought out a case that looked classy even for a large, white man.
The case contains a bunch of different types of cards.
With her eyes closed, she moved her index finger across her deck of cards. But her fingers her seldom decide on a card. Soon, she frowned at her and glared at Seo Ju-hwan.
“Oh, shit. What are you….”
