After a few more days, seeing that there was still no movement, Luo En grew bolder and decided to go out for a walk.
"Divination Club, I didn't expect Tingen to have such a place." Luo En surveyed the signboard in front of him.
This was a place the hotel receptionist recommended to him after he chatted with her about divination.
Unexpectedly, the receptionist was also very interested in the topic, chatted a lot with him, and even excitedly recommended this Divination Club to him.
"Trust me, the Diviners inside are very powerful; you definitely won't be disappointed."
Recalling the receptionist's words, Luo En pushed open the club's door.
The club was on the second floor here, and a beautiful lady was responsible for reception.
This lady, with her brown-blonde hair styled in a bun, looked Luo En over and said with a smile, "Sir, are you here for a divination, or to join our club?"
"Join?" Luo En was a little confused.
The lady with brown-blonde hair neatly tied in a high bun spoke familiarly, "That's right, join us and become a member of the club."
"What are the conditions?"
"Fill out detailed information and pay the annual membership fee. The first time is 5 su le, and then one su le each year."
"We are different from political or business clubs that require recommendations from official members to join; our joining conditions are very relaxed."
Can I get in just by paying? But a 5 su le annual fee is a bit expensive! And I'm just here to escape… *cough*… travel, I won't be staying in this city for too long.
Luo En had no intention of joining, but he still wanted to understand the benefits of being a member of this club, so he continued to ask, "Are there any benefits for members?"
"Of course, members can use our conference rooms and all our divination rooms."
"At the same time, you can enjoy our complimentary coffee and tea."
"All the newspapers and magazines in our club are free to read."
"You can also purchase various divination tools and materials at cost price. Additionally, every month we invite a famous Diviner to give lectures and answer questions."
"Most importantly, you can find a group of friends with similar interests."
Sounds good, I'm even a little tempted, but I don't have money… Luo En felt a bit awkward and then asked, "What if I just want a divination?"
The beautiful lady showed no impatience at all, still maintaining a polite smile as she said, "The price is not fixed. Our members can freely help guests with divination, and the prices are determined by themselves. We only take a certain percentage of the fee."
"You can take a look at this brochure; it has introductions and prices of members who are willing to perform divinations for others." She said, handing Luo En a brochure.
Then she invited Luo En to sit on the sofa in the reception room and began introducing the members currently in the club, pointing to the brochure.
Hainasi. Fansen, a famous Diviner in Tingen, a resident mentor at the club, skilled in various divination methods, charges 4 su le per session.
John Richard, an experienced Diviner, an old member of the club, charges 2 su le per session.
...
...
The lady in charge of reception introduced several Diviners, from experienced ones to new beginners, with prices ranging from 4 su le to a few pennies.
"Why not try the cheapest one to test the waters?" Luo En, whose funds were tight, did not want to spend too much money.
"No, this time it concerns my life and fortune. The cheapest ones might not have enough experience. If the divination isn't accurate and I believe it, wouldn't that lead to big trouble?!" Luo En, who had initially thought of picking the cheapest Diviner, dismissed his original idea.
"I'll just bite the bullet and go for the most expensive one, just this once." Luo En gritted his teeth and made his choice.
"I want Mr. Fansen to perform the divination for me."
"Alright, please follow me first." The beautiful lady stood up and led Luo En into the door next to the reception room.
There was a not-so-long corridor there, and the innermost room seemed to be a conference room, with faint sounds of turning pages and a light coffee aroma wafting out.
After walking a few steps, the lady in charge of reception motioned for Luo En to stop, then quickly walked forward and called out softly, "Mr. Fansen, someone is here for a divination."
"Alright, I'll be right there." A middle-aged male voice responded.
"Still the Amethyst Room?"
"Mm."
Luo En was then led to the so-called Amethyst Room, where he met a middle-aged man wearing a black classical robe, who gave off a mysterious and solemn impression.
"Hello, I am Hainasi. Fansen."
Luo En greeted him and then stated his request.
"It's like this, I want to have a divination to see if I will encounter any danger in the near future."
"Can you be more specific, what kind of danger?" Hainasi asked.
"Um… it's like this, I accidentally offended someone, which is why I came to Tingen. I want to ask if I will be retaliated against later." Luo En decided to tell part of the truth; he knew that only then would the divination be more accurate.
"Alright, I understand. What divination method do you want?"
"Dream Divination." Luo En said, he had always been curious about what Dream Divination actually was.
"Can you give me your birth year and month?"
Luo En thought for a moment then gave the original body's birth date.
Hainasi nodded and said, "Could you please step out for a moment? Dream Divination is best done by one person in the room."
"Ah, this… Alright." Luo En didn't say much more, turning and leaving the room.
No choice, since he didn't understand it.
After a few minutes, he heard Hainasi calling him, so he re-entered the Amethyst Room and saw Hainasi. Fansen, who looked a bit unwell.
"Sorry, sir, Dream Divination seems to have encountered some problems. Can you choose another divination method?"
"This… Then I'll have Tarot card divination." Luo En chose a divination method he was more familiar with.
Hainasi pushed the neatly stacked Tarot cards on the black tabletop towards Luo En: "Carefully recall the course of events and the question you want answered, then shuffle and cut the cards."
After recalling everything in his mind, Luo En took the Tarot cards, shuffled, and cut them.
Once the actions were completed, Hainasi, who was opposite him, said, "You will randomly draw two cards in a moment. The first card represents the current state of the event, and the second card represents the final outcome of the event."
Saying this, he spread out the entire deck on the tabletop.
Luo En followed his instructions and gently picked out two cards.
Hainasi turned over the first card, which was the upright Tarot card, "Devil."
Luo En was startled by this card; even someone who knew nothing would know this card was not a good omen.
Then Hainasi opened the other card.
Luo En leaned in to see that it was an inverted Tarot card, "Fool."
