This was what Killua received:
The interweaving of thunder and lightning will sketch out the best result,
You are an assassin who kills people, not a butcher who slaughters fat pigs.
Never go and play with anything that has twenty faces,
Otherwise you will lose everything.
On the road heading east, there will not only be a cute companion,
But also a terrifying old muscle witch that makes people shudder.
Playing ball games is absolutely a terrible choice,
If you really want to play, then try a yo-yo instead.
Right now, you will not be all alone,
But your traveling companion will tell you that even between companions, distance is necessary.
Leorio got this:
At a dreamy Western dinner party,
You will feel your own absolute smallness.
You can rest easy,
Your companions have already found their road.
Next, you will need to put on a mask,
And properly experience life's swan song.
Milluki got this:
Follow your heart,
It will lead you onto the absolutely correct path.
Games are not your only choice in life,
But this time, you have no other option.
Go and properly enjoy the fun of the game,
It will let you see your former self.
After everyone received their own fortune-telling poems, their expressions all differed, and they sank into deep thought.
Only Roy looked at the two blank slips of paper in his hands with some helplessness.
So it really can't divine my former self...
Although he had already expected this outcome, Roy still felt a little disappointed.
Forget it. Since I'm already here, I might as well take things as they come. Then I'll just have my current self divined instead. Anyway, Neon still has one more chance.
After Roy asked Neon to do the divination again, this time words appeared, and he got a new fortune poem.
It read:
The intertwining of light and darkness
Has destined you to become the world's new master.
Numbers hold no meaning for you,
Yet for some people, they are the straw that saves their lives.
A death game will be your paradise,
And while playing, you may consider the path of genius.
Every fat person has hidden potential,
And his family thinks so too.
There are countless species of ants in nature,
But at least they are more pleasing to the senses than rats and monkeys.
Let go and do it boldly,
The Bodhisattva still thinks highly of you.
When the dust settles and the curtain falls for an intermission,
You can try taking a short trip.
Where would you like to travel?
Or would you rather sample some authentic ninja ramen?
Surely you are not going to put on a suit of golden armor shining like the stars,
And go risk your life for those lofty people who see you as worthless weeds, are you?
...
Roy also noticed that after Neon finished writing this fortune poem, she was already extremely exhausted.
Her eyelids drooped, and she looked like she was about to fall asleep at any moment.
Neon's maid thoughtfully escorted her back to her room, while Roy, after pondering for a while, put away the fortune poem.
Some of the things written on it, combined with Roy's upcoming plans, were enough for him to form a rough idea.
As for Gon and the others, they were still thinking about what was written in their fortune poems.
Leorio was the first to react. Having gotten into medical school, he completely crushed everyone present in terms of academics.
His fortune poem was very simple, only a few lines.
It was nothing more than being shaken by tomorrow's auction, then Gon and the others reaching their goal and entering the game, while he himself returned to university to continue his studies.
Gon might be innocent, but he wasn't stupid.
He could naturally understand part of it, though there were still some parts he could not make sense of.
"Rock-paper-scissors? A beautiful old lady? A chaotic castle?" Gon tilted his head, looking confused.
"Don't touch anything with twenty faces? Don't play ball games? A muscle witch? What is all that even supposed to mean?" Killua scratched at his hair.
"Losing everything means gambling, right? Then I just won't gamble or play ball games. A muscle old witch? Is that an enemy? And companions need to keep some distance too..."
Killua subconsciously glanced at Gon beside him, then lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Milluki, meanwhile, did not have any particularly strong reaction to his own fortune.
As long as it had nothing to do with death, the Zoldyck family's second son was living a very comfortable life.
In Milluki's eyes, aside from family work, only good food, the internet, and the 2D world were the entirety of his life!
Time quietly passed.
Later, Killua and Gon exchanged fortune poems, but still did not notice anything unusual.
The only thing worth paying attention to was that both of their fortune poems mentioned an old woman on the eastern road.
It was just that in one poem, she was kind and beautiful, while in the other, she was a muscle witch.
Those two completely opposite descriptions set Killua and Gon's imaginations running wild.
Finally, after a long wait, the auction ended, and Kurapika and Melody, who had been responsible for the bidding, returned.
When Kurapika saw Roy, Gon, and the others, he froze for a moment, then became very happy.
The group chatted for quite a while, and then Roy shifted his gaze onto Melody.
He had come here this time for two reasons. One was to have Neon do a divination, and the other was to meet Melody.
He wanted to use Melody to verify a guess of his.
Kurapika and Melody naturally noticed Roy's gaze and asked curiously, "What is it, Roy?"
Roy slowly raised his right hand, and golden light spread from it.
The moment they saw that light, Kurapika and Melody's expressions immediately turned serious.
They both knew very well what kind of miraculous effect that light represented.
"When this light appeared, did anything happen?" Roy suddenly asked.
Gon, Killua, and the others, on the other hand, were seeing this scene for the first time, so they were rather curious.
"Nothing. I just want to verify a guess," Roy said, then extended his hand and let that light cover Melody's body.
Melody was first stunned, then felt her entire body grow warm, and after that, it seemed as though some kind of change had begun to occur within her body.
Feeling that change, Melody already vaguely understood Roy's intention. Precisely because of that, her eyes were now filled with excitement and disbelief.
Had the curse of the Dark Sonata that had trapped her for so long finally reached the day it could be lifted?
With excitement and unease in her heart, Melody closed her eyes and carefully began recalling every detail of what her original body had once been like...
