Genjin: I don't want to fall in love with Yae Gongji

Chapter 356 Nacida’s Plan
"Actually, I already have someone selected. Do you remember a female scholar named Setare?"

Hearing this name, Paimon thought about it carefully.

"Cetare...remember! I remembered, is that the follower who has been following the great sage of the Holy Order?"

"After all, at that time, almost every time [the reincarnation of the Flower Goddess' birthday] happened, I would see her once. It would be an exaggeration to say that she is an old acquaintance."

"I remember that every time she spoke to Miss Nelu arrogantly and fiercely."

"Well, I always like to observe all kinds of people, and Setare is a very special one among them."

"She was born in the desert and is the top academic genius among the desert people. Therefore, she entered the Order Academy and stayed with the sage to become an assistant."

"Are you actually born as a desert citizen? That's indeed a bit special. I feel like most of the desert people you can see near Xumi City are mercenaries and the like."

Ying felt that he had indeed seen these people from the Gilded Brigade near Xumi City before, but now due to the summons of the Red King, it would be difficult to see these guys again.

"The name Setale means [star], and she in the desert is like the brightest star in the night sky."

"Later, the sun chose her, and she came to the daytime sky as a star, reflecting the sun's light."

"However, soon after, she saw the scorching sun scorching the earth, bringing many disasters."

"The stars began to hesitate. Instead of helping such a sun, it would be better to go back to the night and light up a starry sky."

"But in the end, she was still too greedy for the light of day and chose to hide her shame in her heart... So the stars closed their eyes."

Ying already understood the meaning of Nasida's metaphor this time.

"This time it's not just a mere metaphor, is this supposed to be Setare's real idea?"

"It sounds like Setale is just greedy for the academic environment here... but she is actually opposed to the practices of the Order, right? And she also feels indebted to the desert in her hometown... She is clearly just avoiding the problem."

"Indeed, many people, when faced with complex positional issues, will choose to turn a deaf ear and go with the flow until things become irreversible."

"Although she feels guilty, she has unknowingly become the [accomplice] of the sages and cannot escape the blame."

Ying feels that when it comes to this, Setare is indeed the best candidate at the moment.

"In this way, she is indeed a very good candidate."

"Well, we must find a way to get Setare to face the problem again... In this way, not only can we rely on her to obtain information, but she can also get a chance to redeem herself."

"According to my past observations, Setare will take leave every ten days and leave the Order alone to go to the city to do some shopping."

"And tomorrow afternoon happens to be her [purchasing day], and then it will be our opportunity."

"As a preliminary preparation, let's go to a few places where she often goes and talk to the people there."

Under the leadership of Nasida, the two came to the first place, but they didn't go forward immediately.

"This is the fortune-telling stall that Setale often frequents."

"Should we ask her for information about Setare?" Paimon asked.

"No, I already know enough information about Setare. The most important thing now is that you should pay attention to the [way of speaking] and [key information] of the stall owner."

Paimon was a little confused about these two key pieces of information, but he still tried his best to think about the meaning of doing so.

"[Speech style] and [Key information]?"

After telling this, Nasida led the two of them to the stall.

"Lost lambs, are you confused about your destiny?" Nabia said with her back to the three of them.

"The voice of wisdom from the gods often comes to my ears. If some of you have the mercy of the gods today, I may be able to give you some guidance."

"Ah, is it true? Do you often whisper to her?" Pamon asked quickly.

"Hush... cough, this friend of mine is a little confused about the future. Can you help him divine the future?" Nasida said in a Catherine tone at this time.

"Huh huh huh, okay, then..."

Upon hearing this, Nabia turned around and looked at the crowd.At this moment, Nabia's two cats meowed.

The three of them were naturally attracted by the cat's meow.

"Oh, it seems that Harut and Marut don't like you very much. Have you done anything to offend the gods?"

"Speaking ill of the Wind God, taking advantage of the Rock God, and giving the Arctic Ziwei Emperor an unpleasant nickname... Do these count?" Paimon said on the side.

Nabia was also surprised by Paimon's words.

"It's nothing, traveler, just pick a topic you want to divination on."

"Then let's divine your luck in love."

"Luck in love, right? No problem."

After saying this, Nabia closed her eyes and started her divination.

"Heh heh heh heh... I heard it, I heard it."

"People who are destined to you will appear in... in... huh? Well, there are so many! How come there are so many people..."

Nabia also felt that this divination result was a bit outrageous, so she scolded her two cats.

"Harut and Marut, did you mess up the divination? I have never seen such an outrageous result."

The two cats heard their master's words and meowed, indicating that they did not disturb the divination.

"Well, actually, have you ever thought about the possibility that divination is accurate?"

"Okay, okay, I admit that my condition today is not good, so I will make an exception and won't charge you for the divination." Nabia said that there will be no charge for this divination.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it."

"Bring some cat food next time. Harut and Marut will be happy. Maybe it will help you transfer?"

After finishing the divination, the three of them went to the second stall.

"Is this shop Setare often comes to?" Paimon asked.

"Yes, when Setale first came to Sumeru City, she received a lot of care from the shopkeeper Ajin's father, so she would come here to hang out when she had time."

"When I talk to him later, you must listen carefully to the details of the conversation."

After explaining this, Nasida led the two of them to the stall.

The shopkeeper A Jin saw the guests coming and greeted them.

"Hey, guys, do you want to see some pottery?"

"I heard that your craftsmanship is very good, so I came here to have a look." Nasida said again in Catherine's tone.

"Oh~ I know you. Aren't you Miss Catherine from the Adventurers Association? This is a big business."

"Speaking of which, where did you learn your craft?"

A Jin told some stories about his past making pottery.

"It's like my dad. He is actually a mason. When I was learning the craft from him, I became interested in playing with mud."

"Later I secretly started making pottery, and the results turned out to be decent, so I simply changed my career. Unfortunately, the knowledge Void provided me was not very useful."

“It’s nice to be able to do something that interests you.”

"Hey, does your father still work as a mason?"

"No, no. When he was working in the early years, he fell from the roof and broke his leg. Anyway, he saved a lot of money in his life, so he just retired in Port Olmos."

"That's it. I hope he has a peaceful and happy old age."
