Chapter 48 - Hannes Vanseert

13 Holes Street, North District of Tinggen City, the divination club on the second floor. Klein saw the beautiful lady in charge of reception once again. She still had her long brown hair coiled up, looking mature and elegant. It was hard to tell her exact age just by looking at her. "Hello, Mr. Gracis is not here today. Would you like to change to another diviner?" The beautiful lady said with a smile. When Klein heard this, he was suddenly surprised: "You still remember me?" This was something that happened before! The brunette lady pursed her lips and smiled: "You are the first guest to ask for divination from Mr. Gracis. And so far, you are the only one. It's hard not to leave a deep impression on me." A bad impression of being greedy and getting a big deal for a small price? Klein joked to himself and pondered: "When did Mr. Gracis last come to the club?" The brunette lady glanced at him, as if thinking before answering: "Tell you the truth, we can't predict the patterns of club members' arrivals. They have free will and various matters. Well, I remember after that day when I gave you divination, Mr. Gracis probably didn't come to the club again." Wish him good luck and may the goddess bless him... Klein prayed and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he smiled and said: "I'm not here for divination this time. I want to join the club." "Really? It's our honor," The brunette lady showed a surprised expression at the right time. "As a first-time member, please pay a 5-pound annual fee. After that, it's 1 pound per year. I don't need to introduce the details to you again, right?" Klein took out a new 5-pound note from his inner pocket, looked away from Henry Augustus I's portrait, and carefully examined the anti-counterfeiting watermark. The brunette lady solemnly took the note and handed him a form: "Please fill in the details and I'll issue you a receipt." Do you have an invoice? The heading is Black Thorn Security Company... Klein was amused by his own thought and picked up the wet pen on the table, using the blue-black ink, to fill in the information such as name, age, street address, and company name. However, he deliberately left out the date of birth and month. For a "diviner", this is the mysterious number that relates to one's own secrets. After opening the receipt and registering the membership information, the brunette lady extended her right hand and said: "Welcome to the divination club of Tinggen City. I'm Angelica Barrehart, your diligent servant. Here is your membership pin, with our unique inscription that can prove your membership status." "Hello, Ms. Angelica," Klein gently grasped her hand and took the dark gold pin. He noticed that the unique inscription on it used the root of a word in Hermes language, that word being "diviner". Angelica withdrew her left hand and thought for a few seconds: "I don't know what kind of divination you are good at, or what kind of divination methods you want to learn in the club? We will consider inviting a corresponding well-known diviner to give lessons, and also introduce members with similar specialties to you to have a pleasant exchange." "Every kind of divination, I know a little. I don't need to think about it specially for me," Klein replied with a slight modification and asked, "Can I do divination for people right now? I'm not a beginner learning just now." He came here to play the role of a "diviner", not to learn the divination methods that ordinary people can access. Angelica maintained a polite smile and said: "You can freely do divination in the club at any time. But before confirming your level, we won't give good advice when customers ask. How much do you want for the divination fee?" "Two pence, I suppose," Klein intended to win by price when he wasn't famous yet. "We will charge a quarter pence of the total price as a fee..." Angelica first went through all the regulations, and then wrote Klein's information into that "diviner" booklet for customers to choose. After doing all this, she smiled and pointed to the meeting room at the end of the corridor and said: "Mr. Heinas Vanseint is explaining the astrological divination. You can sit quietly and listen. You can also raise your hand to ask questions if you have any difficulties." "OK." Klein was quite interested and walked towards the meeting room, wanting to hear what Heinas Vanseint and Old Neil had different points of view on. At this time, Angelica caught up with him and lowered her voice and said: "Mr. Moretti, do you need coffee or tea? We offer free锡伯红茶,南威尔咖啡 and Dixie coffee." Klein, who had often read newspapers recently, knew that these coffees and teas were of medium to lower quality, but he also understood that they were definitely better than the inferior products at home. So he thought for a moment and said: "A cup of Southwell coffee, three spoons of sugar, no milk." The most famous thing in the Kingdom of Ruan was beer and wine, and many important people liked them quite a lot. However, coffee was relatively less famous. "OK. We'll bring it to you later." Angelica pointed to the meeting room with her finger. Klein walked slowly to the half-open door and heard the explanation with a thick Ahoa County accent: "Astrological divination is also a rather complex type of divination among all the divinations..." This is only relative to ordinary people... Klein silently added, seeing the long table in the meeting room forming a semi-circle, surrounded by a middle-aged man in a black classical robe, Heinas Vanseint. This gentleman had obvious dark circles under his eyes, and his brown hair was thick and stiff, standing up stubbornly, like a hedgehog playing a role. Apart from this, he had no obvious characteristics when explaining astrological divination. Seeing Klein come in, Heinas Vanseint nodded slightly, not interrupting the lesson, but slightly slowing down his speech. Klein put his hand in his pocket and held a staff, sitting down at an edge position, leaning back comfortably, looking around with the still bright afternoon sunlight, seeing there were six members here, four men and two women. Some were concentrating on taking notes, some were whispering about something, and some were giving a苦笑 to Klein. Putting down the staff, Klein pressed his half-high silk hat and raised his fingers to tap his brow twice. His gaze turned to Heinas, seeing his aura, the different colors, brightness and thickness. "Dark red, a bit anxious emotionally... Other parts are all healthy, but there's a problem here, I don't know what it is... " Klein listened to the lecture leisurely and muttered to himself. At this time, his right hand clenched into a fist and pressed against his mouth to prevent the laughter from escaping, because suddenly he felt like an unlicensed old doctor. Regarding the ability of clairvoyance, he was now quite satisfied, although he could only use it to roughly judge the situation and couldn't distinguish the specific details, but it was enough to obtain a lot of useful information. He looked around again and lightly tapped his brow twice again, as if thinking about what Heinas had just said. Astrological divination belongs to astrology, but ordinary people can also try to interpret it, such as the most basic "birth astrological chart", which is based on the positions of the Sun, Moon, Blue Star and Red Star at the time of the asker's birth, marking their symbolic symbols on the astrological chart in the correct places, and adding the corresponding conditions of various constellations, and finally interpreting the other person's fate. This requires the diviner to know how to reverse calculate the states of planets and constellations, which is quite complex. Of course, there are also books published for people to consult, and some people simplify it and only use constellations for the most vague interpretation. Klein listened quietly, without interrupting or asking questions. From time to time, he stroked the yellow crystal pendant in his sleeve and took a sip of the Southwell coffee that Angelica brought in. After a long while, Hainas rubbed his temples and said: "You might need to try drawing your own horoscope. If you have any questions, you can come to me. I'm in the White Crystal Room." Watching him leave, a young man in a white shirt and black armor smiled and stood up, walking over to Klein: "Hello, I'm Edward Steve." "Hello, Klein. Moretti," Klein stood up and returned the greeting. "The horoscope is really too complicated. Every time I hear about it, I can't help but want to start a dream." Edward Steve said self-deprecatingly. Klein smiled and said: "Because Mr. Van Sant always can't help but teach us all the knowledge he has, it's like giving us a feast of Inthisus at once. This is not conducive to digestion at all." "If it were me, I could finish a feast of Inthisus. They always use very large plates to hold a little food." Edward chuckled and sat down, curiously asking, "Are you a new member? I haven't seen you in the past two years." "I just joined the club today," Klein replied calmly. "What do you specialize in? I'm best at Tarot and Poker divination." Edward casually asked. "I know a little bit of everything. Just a little bit," Klein used his previous description of himself here. He wasn't being humble. Because in the field of divination, there are indeed too many mysterious and unknown knowledge that haven't been mastered. Just as the other members wanted to come over to exchange horoscope divination, Angelica entered the meeting room: "Mr. Steve, someone is asking for a divination from you." "Okay," Edward Steve smiled and stood up. "It seems you are an excellent diviner," Klein looked at him and said. "No, it's just because my price is the most suitable." Edward chuckled and said, "Ordinary people won't directly choose the most expensive ones when they come for divination. And unless his head has been kicked by a donkey, he definitely won't trust the cheapest ones. The ones in the middle are the easiest to get opportunities." I'm the one you said had a head kicked by a donkey... Looking at him leave, Klein suddenly shook his head and smiled wryly: It seems that my price positioning has gone wrong... He stood up, took his cane, and walked out of the meeting room, finding Angelica again: "I hope to change the divination price. Well, 8 pence." Angelica gave him a deep look and said: "We will meet your requirements, but we will also tell the customers that you just joined our club." "No problem," Klein nodded nonchalantly. Sometimes, mystery is also an important element that attracts customers for "diviners". After correcting the information, Klein turned back towards the meeting room. At this time, he saw Hainas Van Sant emerge from the White Crystal Room, holding a silver-plated mirror. This well-known diviner said to the three men and two members in the meeting room: "I recently just mastered a new divination method, the Magic Mirror Divination. Do you want to learn it?" Magic Mirror Divination? This is not a safe divination method... Klein, dressed in black formal attire, stopped outside the meeting room and frowned.
