Hearing this, Samantha replied, “Where else could he go? He’s off to find Carver, of course. Adrian told me that Carver probably came across some prophecies somewhere.”

“Prophecies?” Joanna seemed puzzled.

“What are prophecies?” Rue asked, not knowing what that was.

Joanna then said, “Juno, could you explain it to your mother please?”

Juno said, “Prophecies are told by seers that foretell something that may happen in the future. People of the past used to believe in such things. Nobody talks about such things in our current times, but that doesn’t mean that the technique is lost

forever.”

“I still don’t understand.” Rue shook her head.

Juno smiled and elaborated further. “If, for example, I’d like to start a rebellion in the past, I’d find a lot of capable people to write a few books before I mobilize my armies. These books would contain hints that point to me becoming the future emperor, which would then in tum be known as a prophecy.

“Prophecies were made up by men, and people used to believe in them very much. However, there were times when prophecies ended up becoming mysterious coincidences whenever they came true.

“Did Big Brother receive a prophecy?” Juno turned toward Samantha as she asked.

“You know about him meeting Carver last night, right? Carver gave him a wooden doll and said that person who looked like the doll would become Wyvern Peak’s next leader.

“On top of that, that doll was of a woman. Which is why Adrian thinks Carver must’ve seen or heard about this prophecy somewhere to have made such a confident claim.”

In the ancient past, prophecies were made up of a string of mysterious coincidences in the future that had been recorded. Hence the saying about how prophecies were merely man–made. But sometimes, unbeknownst to others, such things had been fated to happen, which was why the knowledge of being a seer was so complex.

Surprised, Joanna said, “Are you saying that Carver’s not a fortune teller, but he came across a prophecy somewhere? That can’t be a coincidence, can it?”

Samantha shook her head. “If it really is a prophecy, then it’s definitely no mere coincidence. Carver must’ve gleaned some information from the prophecy that compelled him to find Adrian and reveal it.

“Actually, Adrian’s path coincided with the prophecy, which should’ve been something close to impossible.”

Juno smiled and said, “Which is why prophecies may indeed happen in the future as per foretold. This is something people of the past believed in very deeply.”

Joanna seemed to have understood something as she said, “I see now. This means the prophecy probably had something along the lines of Draco becoming the next legate, and the one after him would be a woman, right?

‘It all makes sense now. Looks like Carver’s a rather extraordinary person!”

Samantha agreed with Joanna that Garver was indeed extraordinary.

Meanwhile, Rue was finally able to understand what prophecies were, but there were probably no more than two seers who were actually skillful in their craft.

While Samantha, Joanna, and the others were discussing the matter in great detail, Adrian had already left Swallowston. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Southeast City was Navia’s fortress on the southeastern side and was as famous as Southrive. Moreover, the place was buster than even Swallowston, and its Southeast University was famous throughout all of Navia.

Adrian arrived at the university’s gates at twelve noon, where Mya had been waiting for some time. She was wearing a black miniskirt that showed off her flawlessly slender legs.

“You’re here.” Mya walked over in her black high heels when she saw Adrian’s car coming to a stop.
