Chapter 825: Lyon's Life Star
Chapter 825: Lyon's Life Star
I knew it!
As the cat witch gazed upon the pitch-black sky above Lyon's head and the frantic escape of stars around the "black hole," only to be sucked into it, her face remained composed, but her fingers beneath the black cloak couldn't help but tightly grip her thigh.
Although she had known he was a pervert, she never imagined he could be this twisted, even going as far as forcefully blocking out the celestial signs! This was truly...
It's a nightmare!!!
The astrologers who had been tricked into coming stared in disbelief at the night sky above Lyon, where the stars had disappeared.
Astrology requires stars to make predictions! With nothing to work with, even if we memorized the changes of five hundred thousand star charts, it would still be useless!
"This can't be right! It must be fake!"
A middle-aged astrologer with thick eyebrows and big eyes was the first to snap out of his daze, looking up at the black hole above and gritting his teeth. "No matter how powerful the astrology technique is, it's impossible to obscure a person's life star to this extent! This must be an illusion!"
"Yes, yes, that's right!"
"Exactly! This has to be fake!"
Hearing the middle-aged astrologer's words, the other astrologers, whose hearts were racing due to the celestial phenomenon above, felt a glimmer of hope, even though they didn't quite believe it. They desperately clung to this idea and started deducing along this line of thought.
A few astrologers, more decisive in their actions, even contacted their life stars, summoning them to shine upon the black hole above. They tried to illuminate the shrouded darkness, but...
"Gah!"
To the horror of all the astrologers, the round black hole that had obscured everything seemed to open its mouth, forming a crescent-shaped gap. It then wriggled and moved to the side, devouring the light from dozens of life stars!
What the hell? Is this Pac-Man?
Lyon couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment as he watched the "black hole" above open and close its mouth, devouring the surrounding starlight. Meanwhile, the astrologers whose life stars were being "eaten" fell into a state of panic.
"My life star isn't responding!"
"No, no, no! Don't eat it! Stop!"
"Everyone, stop! Don't send any more!"
Facing the black hole that had suddenly started feasting, the frantic astrologers hurriedly disconnected from their life stars. Without the life stars rushing to deliver themselves, the "black Pac-Man" above finally stopped eating and returned to its original position.
"Well, have you come up with an answer?"
The cat witch, having secretly pinched her butt a few times to calm herself down, turned her gaze from the "Pac-Man" and looked at the bewildered leader of the Astrology Guild beside her. With a mischievous smile, she asked, "Come on, tell me which star is his life star? Is it a bright star or a dim star? Has it entered a star palace? If so, is it a main star or a corner star in the astrology chart? What's the celestial sign—conjunction, opposition, trine, or sextile?"
"..."
Trine? Sextile? I only saw it eating!
The leader of the Astrology Guild was stunned as he looked at the massive black hole above Lyon, which had grown several times larger from devouring the stars.
Although he knew the woman had come prepared when she proposed the bet, he never imagined her preparation would be this extreme! Forget about finding the deputy guild master's life star; he couldn't even locate his own life star!
This isn't astrology!!!
"Guild Master."
Seeing the Astrology Guild Master's lips trembling but unable to utter a single word, the cat witch smiled and prompted, "In about half an hour, we'll exceed the time limit we agreed upon. If you can't provide the answer by then, your Astrology Guild will be merged with ours~"
"I..."
Faced with the imminent threat of a guild merger, the Astrology Guild Master shuddered, regretting his hasty decision. He then spoke in a slightly submissive tone, "Can I... can I call for some outside help?"
"As you wish."
The Feline Witch blinked and offered a mischievous smile, adding, "But I suggest you only send someone to the Feng Shui Guild. There's no need to visit the Numerology Guild or the Divination Guild."
"Why?"
"Because we visited the Numerology Guild first, then the Divination Guild, and only after that did we come to you."
"What?!?!"
"An accident occurred during a divination session at the Divination Guild. Most of their members have been carried away by the Patrol Guards and are now at the Clinic getting their eyes treated. As for the Numerology Guild, after a bet with me, they are currently calculating the sexual numerology and heavenly number of our Vice Guild Master."
With my limited understanding of numerology, I estimate that it will take those two hundred-plus numerologists sixty or seventy years to figure out my Vice Guild Master's lucky number for tomorrow~"
"..."
"How about it? Do you need more time to go to the Feng Shui Guild and ask for help?"
"No...no need!"
After refusing the Feline Witch's "kind offer" with a shake of his head, the cornered Astrology Guild Master gritted his teeth. He then summoned his disciples and gathered all the master astrologers of the Astrology Guild, positioning them around Leon in accordance with the phases of their life stars.
"Fate is unpredictable, but the celestial signs are eternal!"
Raising his arms towards the dark void above, the Astrology Guild Master's temples throbbed, and he shouted out a cringe-worthy phrase.
"Eternal stars, hear our call! Pierce through the darkness that obscures all, and reveal your true forms!"
Following their leader's example, the elite astrologers of the Astrology Guild extended their arms, chanting the cringe-worthy phrase while embracing the night sky above.
"Eternal stars...reveal your true forms!" xN
＼(>o<)／＼(>o<)／＼(>o<)／
Soon, the dazzling life stars responded to the astrologers' call, emerging from the endless starry sea engulfed by the "void." They positioned themselves according to their predetermined locations, exuding an air of resolute defiance as they bravely plunged into the devouring darkness.
As the light of all the life stars shone upon them, and the astrologers' excitement reached its peak, the "void," which had remained unresponsive to any previous attempts, finally began to stir.
With the combined efforts of dozens of dazzling life stars, the hopeless black hole above Leon rippled like a pool of ink disturbed by a moon shadow, emitting a dim and delicate light.
A reaction! Finally, a reaction!
Amidst the eager gazes of the astrologers, the heart-fluttering light point slowly moved outward from the "Pac-Man"-like black void, eventually slipping out of its "mouth" and dissipating into the dark sky.
Above, the "Pac-Man" that had already devoured dozens of dazzling life stars slowly opened what appeared to be its "mouth." In response to the anticipation of hundreds of eyes below, it belched out a deafening magical note.
"Burp~"
ヽ(Д)ノヽ(Д)ノヽ(Д)ノ
The "Pac-Man" began to burp, its mouth opening and closing repeatedly.
