Chapter 99: ForgottenChapter 99

The morning sun streamed through the window, casting a warm glow on the sleeping face of a white-haired girl. Laura stirred gently, a peaceful look etched across her face. She opened her eyes and called softly, "Xin?"

No answer.

Sitting up, she turned to the bed beside her—empty. Her younger sister was gone.

A flicker of confusion crossed her face. She checked the adjacent rooms one by one, calling out names,


Kira didn’t hesitate. "Then tell me... what will happen to the Cursed Organization? Will it be destroyed completely?"

The fortune teller closed his eyes again, his fingers curling against the orb as if reaching for something just out of sight. Moments passed before he slowly opened his eyes.

"I don’t know," he admitted. "Their fate is still clouded... but I saw something else."

Kira’s gaze sharpened, though her voice remained calm. "What did you see?"

The man leaned forward slightly, his tone more serious now.

"You... will become a danger to those around you."

Kira blinked once. Twice. Her hand twitched at her side.

Xin frowned. "What do you mean? How could Kira be dangerous? I’m older than her, and she’s not like that at all!"

The man shook his head. "All I saw was... she will become an anomaly."

"An anomaly?" Xin repeated. "What even is that?"

The man sighed and shrugged. "No idea."

Kira turned without another word. "Let’s go, Xin. I still have to find Ronan."



Xin hesitated, then placed 500 yen on the table. "Thank you... wise one," she said politely, though the title was clearly forced.

As they began to leave, the man called out.

"Wait."

Xin turned around just as he reached behind his table, rummaging through a cluttered pile of trinkets. He pulled out a necklace—simple, with a tiny vial of green liquid dangling from its center—and tossed it to her.

"Keep it," he said with a smile. "A gift."

Xin caught it, her eyes widening. The pendant was oddly beautiful, like a tear frozen in glass.

She bowed slightly. "Thank you."

As the two girls walked off into the crowd, the fortune teller leaned back in his chair, stroking his fake beard with a contemplative expression.

"Interesting," he murmured, his gaze lingering on the spot where Xin had stood.

Then, as if speaking to the wind:

"Now... where could her twin brother be, I wonder?"
