Book 4: Chapter 61:2: He Who Knows Fate Tricked You, Part 2

He Who Knows Fate: Honestly speaking, after seeing the story, the experience is terrible. It does not feel like experiencing it for myself.

Magus of Flowers: Actually, you have a better choice. That is…

He Who Knows Fate: What is it?

Magus of Flowers: Learn from that Mother of Mifune. Set up a stall and do fortunetelling. At the same time, you can see the lives of others.

He Who Knows Fate: That makes sense.

Kal’tsit: …Don’t cause trouble, alright? You still have not undergone your ability awakening, right? Quickly, go find a place to do it.

He Who Knows Fate: Damn! I nearly forgot about that.

Magus of Flowers: Do you think Chen Heng’s Absolute Precognition can evolve to the point of seeing transmigrators after two ability awakenings?

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: I doubt it for the ability second awakening and the ability third awakening, but it might be possible for the ability fourth awakening.

Queen of Ice and Snow: I don’t think so. The ability awakening should be very effective on abilities like the Absolute Precognition. Furthermore, this is two ability awakenings in a row.

Efreet: There’s nothing more to say; just start a livestream.

Magus of Flowers: Start a livestream.

Blank Never Loses: I’ll wager on there being a qualitative change this time.

Iron Fist Teacher: I’ll go with Yakumo Yukari and say it won’t.

Lord of the White Night: Alright, enough talking. Start the bets.

Solomon: However, who will be the banker?

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: I’ll do it.

He Who Knows Fate: Have you sought my permission yet?

Queen of Ice and Snow: Just say whether you agree.

He Who Knows Fate: …Never mind. As long as you are happy.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: Quickly start the livestream, then.

Chen Heng silently started the livestream. He intended to make up for the Absolute Precognition’s ability second awakening in the hotel room. It would not cost many points anyway.

He entered the association’s store, tapped buy, and started the awakening.

When the process started, Chen Heng closed his eyes. He felt his brain trembling frantically.

Countless different scenes flashed in his mind. Perhaps because he was undergoing the awakening in Arknights’s world, they were all about Arknights’s future.

For example, there was Chen Heng standing on the roof, watching the Reunion Movement causing trouble in Lungmen. He watched the Lungmen Guard Department’s brave resistance. He saw Ch’en draw her sword against Wei Yenwu. There were many other fragments of the future.

[TL Note: Wei Yenwu is Ch’en’s uncle and the leader of Lungmen. Here is more information about him: /wiki/Wei_Yenwu.]

The scenes flashed endlessly, placing a significant burden on Chen Heng’s mind. Fortunately, his Will Energy was extraordinary, so he only felt slight discomfort and quickly adjusted.

He Who Knows Fate: Alright. The awakening is complete.

Efreet: That’s it? You only closed your eyes.

He Who Knows Fate: What else do you want? Some sort of supernatural phenomenon? This is the Absolute Precognition, not an ability with an external manifestation, so it will not affect the surroundings.

Iron Fist Teacher: Enough talk. Give us the conclusion.

He Who Knows Fate: The first thing I did after awakening the Absolute Precognition was use it on myself. I discovered I would leave this world in seven days.

Blank Never Loses: You died?

He Who Knows Fate: If you are not good with words, speak less. That will save you from being beaten up harder.

Blank Never Loses: …

He Who Knows Fate: It should be due to it being time for me to return to my world.

Efreet: Did something strange happen?

He Who Knows Fate: I wanted to leave only after remaining here for ten or so days. If nothing had happened, I would not leave so early.

Lord of the White Night: Do you know the reason?

He Who Knows Fate: No. It is very blurry.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: What do we consider this?

Queen of Ice and Snow: It should count as seeing transmigrators, right? After all, Chen Heng could see himself—an association member—leaving after seven days.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: That’s not enough. So, Chen Heng, continue with the ability third awakening.

Magus of Flowers: Indeed! Indeed! The bet is there will be a change after the ability second awakening and the ability third awakening.

He Who Knows Fate: Sure. I have to look for a desolate place outside Lungmen to do it. I’ll let my two neighbors know first before I go.

Chen Heng stopped the livestream before leaving the room. Then he went to Skadi’s door and knocked on it.

For convenience, Chen Heng had arranged for three adjacent rooms.

“It’s you, Ah Heng. What’s up?”

“I’m going out for a while and will be back soon.”

“Got it. Be careful.” Skadi did not question Chen Heng about what he was doing. Skadi was indeed a good friend to make. She worried for his safety, was strong, and had fair skin, long, beautiful legs, an understanding nature, the long, silvery-white hair that the Chinese loved, and a gigantic sword. Could Texas achieve that?

Then Chen Heng knocked on Nightingale’s door.

“Ah Heng, why are you here? Come in first.” Nightingale only opened the door after a while. Furthermore, Chen Heng sensed Nightingale checking the peephole first.

Pretty good. She is quite wary.

“There’s no need. Liz, I’m going out for a while. I’m letting you know in case you come to look for me and can’t find me.” Chen Heng rejected this tempting suggestion, even though he knew Nightingale would let him wait in the living area while she bathed if he went in.

Yes. Just the sound alone would be enough to satisfy Chen Heng. Furthermore, she would come out wearing just a bathrobe with nothing underneath.

However, Chen Heng did not have time to go down this side story. In any case, he had already seen the results. Seeing it one more time made no difference.

One could do anything they wanted with the storyline in hand. Precognition was simply awesome.

“Alright, then. How unfortunate.”

“Alright. By the way, Nightingale, what would you like for dinner? I’ll buy it on my way back.”

“You decide.”

Chen Heng knew Nightingale would reply this way if he asked. However, he also knew if he did not ask, Nightingale would just order room service and later complain to him that it tasted bad.

What about Skadi, then? Why didn’t he ask her? Chen Heng would answer she did not eat that early. At the very least, she would not eat before he returned.

After informing Nightingale, Chen Heng headed downstairs. He stayed at Cloud Sea Hotel, one of Lungmen’s few five-star hotels.

He picked this because it was nearby and would result in fewer problems. As for money, that was no problem at all. Do you think he would run out when he could exchange ten points for 1,000,000 LMD?
