Klein left, leaving only the words "I want to go back and think about it."
In the lounge.
Valeera took out her silk scarf and wiped her tears, feeling somewhat uneasy and sad——
She knew that Klein had most likely gone back to do divination, and she didn't have much confidence in whether the statement she just made could pass the divination test, even if it was the best argument she could come up with.
But it doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter if the secret is revealed.
She believed that Klein could confirm that she had no ill intentions towards him and that he was not someone who would inquire into the details. That was enough.
As for the inevitable disintegration of the relationship between the two, Valeera can only say that this is the price that should be paid——
Their current relationship is like a castle, built on the quicksand of deception from the beginning. The grander the castle, the more completely it will collapse, so it is better to break it and build it up again, sweep away the quicksand of deception first, and then start anew. Build a castle.
It was impossible and impossible for her to deceive Klein for the rest of her life.
…
After Klein left the Krag Club, he returned home directly.
After completing the photo development process, he inspected it and went through the ritual to get above the gray fog.
Sitting back on the high-backed chair of "The Fool", he shook his head with a smile, and then presented the parchment and pen in front of him, preparing to perform divination on Valeera's explanation.
His current mood is a bit complicated and strange.
There was anger, sadness, relief, and doubt...but these were not strong enough and seemed not to touch the peace deep in his heart——
It’s a feeling of both inclusion and detachment.
"Valeera's explanations are all true."
After putting away the pen and untying the pendulum, Klein gathered his energy and quickly performed a divination.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the citrine pendant was rotating clockwise, but the amplitude was not large and the speed was relatively slow.
Generally believable, but not entirely true... Klein chuckled and was not surprised by the divination results.
Everyone has secrets, that's normal.
Even he himself has a whole body of secrets, doesn’t even his closest brother and sister know about it?
As long as it doesn't affect yourself, that's fine.
With this idea in mind, Klein thought for a moment and wrote the second divination sentence:
"Valeera will never intentionally hurt me again."
After reciting it silently seven times in a semi-meditative state, he opened his eyes and saw the citrine pendant slowly rotating in a circle and moving clockwise with a large amplitude.
call.
It seems that she can still believe it... Klein breathed a sigh of relief, and his complicated mood suddenly eased a lot.
Of course, I'm not completely relaxed either.
Just because Valeera won't hurt him intentionally, doesn't mean she really won't hurt him——
If the situation is special, she may hurt him "accidentally" or "forced" to do so.
Of course, what Klein cares about most is the secret cult organization "Witch Sect".
If Valeera is really related to them, then one day, while shouting "I'm doing this for your own good", "I don't want to" and other words, while stabbing her chest and abdomen again and again, then It's not impossible.
This situation must be excluded!
Brush brush brush.
Klein quickly wrote the third divination statement:
"Valeera is not a member of the Witch Cult."
The reason why the words "no connection" are not used is because from a mystical sense, since they are in the same sequence, there must be a certain degree of connection, which may interfere with the divination results.
Citrine pendant rotates clockwise.
That's fine if not... Klein put down the parchment that appeared in his hand.
He tapped his fingers on the bronze table and began to recall and consider Valeela's previous words, looking for other doubts that required divination.
[In view of the general environment,
After a while, he suddenly discovered a detail that was horrifying to think about——
Valeera said the name of her Sequence 7 potion is "Witch".
It was the only example in his mind that the name of a potion contained such clear gender characteristics!
Combined with the "acting method", how should a man act as a "witch"?
If you think about the characteristics of the "Witch Sect" - it is said that their top leaders are all women, and think about the "alien" and "vampires" mentioned briefly in Valeera's notes... Klein has a guess from this. .
A conjecture that was really scary to think about and made him feel a little chilly.
No way!
Klein recalled carefully and found that he really didn't know much about Valeela's early experience. He only knew that her family had declined and that she had an older brother...
elder brother!
Klein's heart skipped a beat.
He quickly picked up the pen and paper in front of him again and wrote the fourth divination statement:
"Valeera used to be a man."
"Valeera used to be a man."
…
After seven times, Klein opened his eyes and looked at the citrine pendant on his wrist.
There it stood, motionless.
this? Is there not enough information? Or is she fighting against my divination... No, the latter is unlikely... Klein thought for a moment, crossed out the previous sentence, and wrote a new divination sentence:
"Valeera and her brother are the same person."
This time the divination statement obviously has a clearer direction and contains more complete information.
Sure enough, this time Klein saw the citrine pendant swinging.
The counterclockwise swing is very fast and the amplitude is not small.
call.
It's okay, okay, it's okay if it's not... Klein breathed a sigh of relief again after receiving a clear answer.
Next, before leaving the mysterious space above the gray mist, he practiced manipulating the dummy Mr. World for a short while——
In his inspirational attempt in the morning, he successfully used the "Full Black Eye" left by Rosago to help him create a vest identity.
He stayed at home during the afternoon without going out or trying to contact Valeela.
Although he had confirmed her sincerity and decided to forgive him, Klein still wanted to dry her out first before talking... You can't just date if she wants to date, break up if she wants to, and forgive if she asks for forgiveness, right?
Then he would become a licking dog.
This was her punishment... Klein felt that he should help his predecessor regain some ground.
…
After Klein left, Valeera calmed down and felt a lot more relaxed.
Although it was far from complete, she still revealed some of her emotions through her confession and released a lot of the depression that had been accumulated in her heart.
She has also thought about how to solve the difficulties in promotion.
Forced promotion.
This is the most suitable answer she found in her own heart.
After another attempt at pretending to catch a girl, Valeela was absolutely certain that there was no way she could digest more of the potion.
If she still wants to be promoted, then there are only two choices left for her -
Full role-playing, and forced promotion.
She chose the latter.
He plays the role of harming others and harming himself; instead, he forces promotion. Even if he fails, he will be the only one who suffers.
In contrast, she is more accepting of the latter.

Explain the divination of the protagonist:
Except for the initial coma and amnesia, the protagonist actually has a special anti-divination ability, which can be roughly understood as Schrödinger's anti-divination.
If you have clues, you can get results. If you don't have clues, you won't get results. Model lake search is not supported.
Of course, I admit that this is also a plot requirement, but it also fits my setting.
