Chapter 444: - The Emperor

"Oh, 50 points? Not bad, a cashback," Broken muttered after reading the notification.

He noticed that Yara seemed to be in a strange state of silence. Her eyes were blank and darting in multiple directions.

"Yara, are you okay?" He tried to check her status.

[Name: Yara]

[Level: 66]

[Strength: 104 | Agility: 160 | Intelligence: 304 | Constitution: 115 | Stamina: 164]

[Job: Maid]

[Salary: 1 Gold | o Silver]

[Efficient Housekeeping (A) - Creative Decorator (B) - Melodic Performer (A) - Spell Mastery (B) - Body Language Reader (C) - Green Thumb (D) - Fortune Teller (SS)]

"Wait a minute?" Broken suddenly realized Yara\'s level had changed drastically. When he had first checked, she was somewhere around level 30. But now, she was level 66, and her Intelligence stats had skyrocketed. It must have been due to her intense focus on magic training over the past few months.

And now, with her new talent, the Fortune Teller.

"Woah, SS rating?" Broken muttered in amazement. "What kind of prophecy can she give with such a high talent rating?"

He felt a surge of anticipation. SS-rated talents were extremely rare. In fact, he had only encountered a few NPCs with a talent that high-maybe just one, Danko, with his SS-rated Mineral Detector talent.

Freya stood up and walked over to Yara, gently placing her hand on the girl\'s shoulder.

"Yara, are you alright?"

Yara covered her face with her hands, clearly overwhelmed. "Sorry, I\'m just... I was suddenly flooded with information. It\'s all about my Lord\'s future."

"My future?" Broken leaned in with excitement. "Tell me everything-money, power, romance, luck, whatever you\'ve got."

Yara slowly lowered her hands, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

"Why are you blushing, Yara? Are you sure you\'re okay?" Freya asked, placing a reassuring hand against her cheek.

"No, I\'m fine, Ms. Freya," Yara replied nervously. "I\'m just going to get Tarot cards. Please excuse me, My Lord." She bowed her head politely and hurried off, leaving Broken and Freya in suspense.

Yara rushed up the steps, her face still flushed. "Why am I suddenly seeing images of my Lord... with beautiful women? It\'s as if I\'ve witnessed it myself, whether in the past or future. Is this because of the talent he gave me?" she wondered as she entered the library.

The former Lord had kept all sorts of items in the library, and among them were Tarot cards. She reached for a wooden box adorned with images of a forest and a girl whose body was covered in plants, resembling a Dryad.

"These are the Nature Elemental Tarot Cards," she murmured softly. "I don\'t know why the former Lord had these, but since everything in this house belongs to the current Lord, I suppose it\'s fine to use them."

Yara returned downstairs, placing the box of Tarot cards in front of Broken and Freya. Broken eagerly grabbed the box and opened it, examining the contents. "The artwork is beautiful and so... intriguing. I\'ve never seen Tarot cards with such unique designs before." Freya chimed in. "Actually, Tarot decks come in many themes, so it\'s not uncommon to find ones like this with a more unusual or specific style."

"Oh, I didn\'t know that."

He continued, "Do you know how to use these, Yara? I mean, with your new talent?" Yara giggled softly. "My Lord, this is my first time using Tarot cards, but somehow it feels like I\'ve been studying them for a long time. Ever since I received the talent scroll from you, it\'s like the knowledge just... clicked."

"Excellent, give it a try."

This talent scroll is truly incredible. Imagine if something like this existed in the real world- being able to master a skill instantly just by using a scroll.

Yara hesitantly picked up the Tarot cards, the stack looking slightly too large for her small hands. She concentrated, shuffling the deck before laying the cards on the table in a neat line. "If it pleases you, My Lord, pick three cards at random," she said, her voice soft but confident. Broken carefully selected three cards, placing them one by one in front of her.

Yara smiled and began turning each card over slowly. Her expression grew serious as she examined the cards\' meanings, her face becoming still as she read the messages. For a moment, she remained silent, as if deciphering something complex.

"What do these cards signify, Yara?" Broken asked, intrigued.

He glanced at the three Tarot cards he had drawn: The Emperor, The Tower, and The Wheel of Fortune. The illustrations were captivating, and his curiosity deepened as he awaited her

Broken, half-joking, said, "The Emperor means I\'ll be an emperor in the future." He chuckled.

Freya nudged him in the side. "You\'re way too confident."

"The Tower must mean I\'ll have a grand kingdom, and the Wheel of Fortune means my luck is amazing, right?"

"Look at that Tower-it\'s being struck by lightning and about to collapse. Do you really think that\'s a symbol of a great empire?"

"Okay, fair point."

They turned their attention back to Yara, who was carefully examining the cards.

Yara picked up the first card, The Emperor, showing an image of a Nature Spirit seated on a throne made of plants and vines. She smiled softly.

"My Lord," she began gently.

"The Emperor can\'t be a bad sign, right?" Freya giggled.

"The first card is The Emperor," Yara began. "He stands tall and proud, with a crown of gold and a staff of power in his hand. His gaze is full of determination, ready to take on the world. He represents action, leadership, vision, and conquest, all in one."

"So, does that mean Broken will become a king, or even an emperor, in the future?" Freya

asked slowly.

"The Emperor can also symbolize a dictator," Yara continued. "A tyrant, oppressive and controlling, who holds absolute power with little regard for others\' rights or feelings. He\'s a figure of fear and domination, representing authoritarianism."

Broken frowned, then grinned. "Well, that doesn\'t sound so great."

"My Lord, my apologies, but this is the meaning I can gather so far: it suggests you\'ll find yourself in a position where your decisions will impact the fate of many people."

Freya jumped in, "That\'s still kind of cool, though..."

"I\'m not sure I see what\'s so \'cool\' about that," Broken said, raising an eyebrow.

"But you\'ll be a great ruler in the future-how is that not awesome?" Freya asked. "Sure, and all the risks and consequences that come with it, right?"

"At least someone sitting at the top is held in high esteem by many," Freya grinned.

She continued, "But what Yara said about you having the power to determine the fate of many? Well, even now, you\'re already doing a lot of things based on your own decisions. Maybe without realizing it, your actions are affecting a lot of people."

"I don\'t really feel that way. What have I done that\'s affecting so many people?" Freya sighed. "It\'s simple. You\'re the Lord of Slumdon now. Automatically, every decision and action you make impacts the city and everyone involved with it—especially the

investors."

Broken nodded slowly. "Okay, I see your point."

"And if your power grows even more, it\'ll have an even greater impact. Your decisions will be

tested-you\'ll need to choose wisely, or you could make choices that only benefit the

moment without considering the bigger picture."

"Fine... I\'ll give it more thought," Broken smirked. "What about the next card, Yara?"
