Chapter Thirteen: Astrology
Now, it's afternoon.
The magic rain drops drop by drop, like a broken string, and sometimes it continues with a tinkling sound.
The windows made of colored glass hang upside down in neon colors, dragging a colorful trail in the political hall.
"So, Miss Tara, how was your chat with our Marshal Hogg?" Charlie crossed his legs and raised a skilled arc at the corner of his mouth.
"Well..." Tara tapped the corner of her mouth with her index finger and said playfully, "Not so good, that guy Hogg is still ungraceful and didn't even invite him a cup of tea."
She smiled and played with her hair, holding the big book in her other hand, the stars on it still shining.
At first glance, it seems that this is her magic weapon, and the magic attached to it looks very lively.
After all, this is her book from small to large...
"[Astrology Book]..." Charlie said solemnly, "It's a first-class magic weapon...it's a good thing."
"You are really clear about the investigation." Tara said angrily, "I guess not many people will come to your place to chat with you...except for the people from the Mercenary Association who were sighing outside just now."
"Let me remind you, I am not Avni." Charlie said expressionlessly.
"The Star Club is still the same Star Club as before." Tara straightened her back, snapped her fingers, and the big book in her hand instantly floated up.
"Do you have any special requirements for coming here this time?" Charlie became gloomy and his mouth tightened.
"No, I only abide by the covenant with the government as a member of the Star Council." Tara said easily, "After all, I have an obligation to report some astrological information about the lifeline of the country to His Majesty, right?"
"Well..." Charlie's expression became even worse and he swallowed.
Why is everything deviating from what he expected...
He gritted his teeth with hatred, but was powerless. As the king of a country, he had too many rights and too many shackles on him.
"Keep talking." Charlie waved his hand and let out a light breath.
"Haha...King Charlie, the new official has three fires after taking office, but he can't burn down the whole country, can he?" Tara smiled, she caressed the book that had been with her for more than ten years, and carefully
Her long and strong fingers followed the brilliance flowing on the cover, and her eyes were very complicated.
"Did you know? I have succeeded my master as the country's specially invited astrologer for eleven years." Tara covered her mouth and yawned. Magic lines appeared on her fingernails. With a wave of her hand, this large book
The book opened instantly.
From the yellowed pages, the power of stars as vast as the sea spurted out.
It was endless and deep blue, and under Tara's guidance, it suddenly filled the seemingly small hall.
"Hmm...!" Charlie clenched the armrest in surprise, and the scene in front of him was too shocking.
The sky is so close, so close. It's as if you can reach it with your hand. The stars in the sky are bright and dark as if they are breathing, and they are spinning and flying, and some are dragging their long tails.
The tail, some of them flicker there alone.
"Did you know? His Majesty Ayuni was as shocked as you when he saw this scene for the first time." Tara's tone was full of nostalgia and sentimentality, "That's what my master told me.
.”
"..." Charlie was speechless and just looked around quietly.
"Then, let's get started." Tara tapped her fingers and waved her hands again, "What you see next is the star of Yaris."
The surrounding stars flew quickly and pulled away, leaving only a little starlight in the center of the hall.
"Let's zoom in a little more. We can't see clearly yet." Tara put her index fingers and thumbs together, and the power of the stars formed thin threads, parting the layers of fog, and connected a few stars in the center of the hall.
It expanded several times out of thin air, "Let me first introduce you to the name of the planet."
There are seven planets in total, neatly arranged in a row, rotating in the sky in an orderly manner from near to far. Each one has a unique and mysterious brilliance.
"What you see now, the green planet closest to you is the first star, which represents 'vitality'."
"And this brown, bumpy-looking planet is 'disaster'."
"This blue planet is 'Destiny'. You see, there is a star belt around it."
"This golden planet represents 'wealth'. I believe you also hope to bring prosperity to the country."
"The fourth star is 'time', which records our eternal... most mysterious things."
"If some planets representing 'unknown' fall into the first or second star position, please be aware that all your inappropriate actions may lead to the collapse of the overall situation, and you will need to pay more than before to restore it.
"
"For example, this humble, disgusting black planet: 'Murder'."
Tara pushed up her glasses and continued to explain to the fascinated Charlie.
"Oh! You must be familiar with these two! The Magic Sun and the Magic Moon! Please don't confuse the Magic Moon with other planets, because it will change a color at the beginning of each month. Please pay attention to its shape.
and size, so that the observation will not be wrong."
Tara smiled, snapped her fingers, shrank the stars, and brushed them away with her hand.
Charlie was stunned for a moment, stood up from the throne in surprise, and looked at the unfathomable Five Magic Pattern Warlock in front of him in disbelief.
This [Astrology Book]... really deserves to be called the [Soul-Eating Book]...
The star power contained in it is enough to annihilate Charlie's soul dozens of times.
"Thank you for your teaching." Charlie patted his shoulder, brushed away the non-existent dust, and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's really shocking."
What he said was very heartfelt and solemn.
This represents a kind of respect and attention to the other party.
And more things to watch out for.
Currently, the three largest civil organizations in Yaris are the Star Society, the Merlin Cult, and the Mercenary Association.
These three are not easy bones to chew on. Even the Merlin Cult, which has been weakened a lot, can keep Charlie at bay with just one World Tree.
The Star Society has many secrets just like the Merlin Cult.
There are even as many first-level magic weapons as the Merlin Cult. Of course, World Tree itself can produce a large number of high-quality magic weapons, which is incomparable with the other two organizations.
Relatively speaking, the Mercenary Association is much weaker, but they also actively cooperate with the other two organizations, which also gives Charlie some headaches.
But persimmons need to be picked and pinched softly. At least you can handle them, right?
"Your Majesty Charlie, what I will present to you next is..."
Tara paused and smiled sharply.
"Yaris' horoscope during this period."
"The first star position: the disaster star. The monarch should not make too big moves during this period, otherwise it will easily hurt the bones and muscles, and even seriously damage the vitality of the country."
"The one in the opposite position is the Killing Star. The stars in the opposite position will affect each other and the star power will expand geometrically. Please be careful, Your Majesty. I don't need to say more about what the Killing Star... represents.
Let's do it." Tara's lips moved, and the star power in her hands continued to be released.
"The remaining star positions have little impact on the current Yaris."
"Thank you for your instructions." Charlie looked unhappy and his lips were purple.
"I hope your majesty can think more when making decisions and avoid unpleasant consequences." The smile on Tara's face disappeared. She stretched out her hand and the big starry book closed automatically.
The chaotic stars in the sky also returned to the book, leaving only a little afterglow still shining in the hall.
"I'm sure of it," Charlie said dryly.
"Then, if there's nothing else, I won't stay here any longer." Tara smoothed her long hair with her hands, picked up the book, and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, Miss Tara."
"Huh?" Tara turned her head, with a trace of surprise in her eyes, "What's the matter?"
"Would you like to teach Merlin with me..."
"Oh... My Majesty, I hope you can be more cautious. Merlin Cult is not something you can afford now, but quite the opposite." Tara's eyes were filled with endless Milky Way, "They
It’s not something we can defeat, and besides, our relationship with the Merlin Cult is quite friendly and quite good.”
"Haha, I just mentioned it casually."
"I hope you can give them a chance and talk to them again." Tara smiled, "I believe you also have this plan, don't you? Then I'll leave first."
Tara's legs were very long and her steps were fast. She opened the door knocker in a few clicks and walked out of the door decorated with red silk.
Only the silent Charlie was left meditating.
"Disaster...massacre..."
The right time, the right place, the right people...
It seems that he has not accounted for any of them.
"Alas..." Charlie finally shook his head and sighed.
"So, brother..."
He smiled ferociously.
"You also know me, my dear brother...but...since they have said so, let me change my mind..."
His purpose has never been to drive away the orcs and occupy Rubis.
The orcs have nothing to do with him, this is just a bargaining chip for him.
He is a madman, a complete madman.
However, there is still a dormant period.
Maybe a few years? Or a few decades?
