Only I Have Two Towers Episode 141
Can’t See It?
The Raccoon Den prepared for Camella Shirin.
He prepared cold black tea and opened the door.
Even though he opened it for just a brief moment, smoke leaked out.
Jinhyeok quickly closed the door and went inside to take his seat.
Fortunately, it didn’t seem like she was smoking anything too strong.
His eyes didn’t sting and he wasn’t coughing.
“First, drink a cup of black tea.”
“Nice.”
Camilla took the cup and leaned back into the recliner sofa.
Jinhyeok and the Kan-Mo duo took seats beside her.
And then.
Rub rub rub.
They started massaging her arms.
A service for the elderly person who had worked hard making talismans.
Camilla wore a very satisfied expression.
“This is a nice place. Here.”
“It’s the Captain’s grace! Be grateful, you fraud!”
“You little devil.”
“What’s that? Isn’t it basket?”
“Tsk tsk, your vocabulary is still lacking.”
“If I had lived for hundreds of years, I would have done well too.”
“That also has some merit. Anyway, you go down and massage my feet. It’s ticklish because of the fur.”
Kancheo looked at Jinhyeok.
“Don’t explode.”
“That’s right. Regrettable.”
Kancheo nodded and obediently went down to massage her feet.
Of course.
“Is this a place where people live or a raccoon den? Even raccoons would run away coughing if they came here.”
He didn’t forget to constantly grumble.
“Huuuuu.”
Camilla smiled while puffing out smoke.
“That thing is definitely possessed by Satan.”
Confirming once again, he turned his head toward Momo who was massaging his shoulders.
“You have quite skillful hands despite your appearance. I thought it wouldn’t be refreshing at all, but it’s very good.”
“Momo can do anything!”
The greedy collector Momo puffed out her chest.
Of course, she began putting even more effort into the massage.
Praise that makes even whales dance.
Momo had no way to endure it.
“The black tea tastes very good too. Where did you get it?”
“This? I got some from the British Royal Family.”
“Oh?”
Camilla made an interested expression.
No wonder the flavor and depth were exceptional.
“Do you know someone in the Royal Family too?”
“I’m friends with the person who’s about to become queen.”
“Ohhh? You have more friends than I thought. I thought you wouldn’t have any at all.”
Jinhyeok made a sad expression.
Indeed, Manshin.
He really didn’t have friends.
He had just made some recently.
Camilla leaned back with a mysterious smile.
Jinhyeok was still young, having just turned twenty-two.
Yet having such connections?
It meant the path he had walked so far wasn’t ordinary.
Just looking at yesterday and today, it was already this extent, so the future would only be more, not less.
“As a reward for massaging my arms, I’ll read your fortune.”
Jinhyeok’s eyes sparkled fiercely.
He had actually been thinking of asking about it.
Though he didn’t have faith in shamanic beliefs, he had always been interested in fortune-telling and divine readings.
“Read Momo’s fortune too!”
“Please read mine too!”
“Ugh!”
Kancheo kicked Momo away and claimed the front seat.
Camilla pointed at Kancheo with her pipe.
“You’re definitely going to hell.”
“As expected, a fraud.”
Kancheo, who rapidly lost interest, returned to his spot and continued massaging.
To continue massaging even after being told he’s definitely going to hell.
He’s a friend who doesn’t hold grudges.
“Momo! What about Momo!?”
“You’ll become a very rich person. You’ll have so many gold coins that your tiny hands won’t be able to hold them all.”
“Love gold coins!!”
Momo grinned and increased the speed of her massage.
Jinhyeok, who was next, swallowed his saliva.
Unlike before, Camilla looked at Jinhyeok very carefully.
Camilla frowned just slightly.
Jinhyeok took a sharp breath.
Did a bad fortune come out?!
“Skillful child. If you have any rice, give me some.”
“Here!”
Momo handed over a handful of rice.
Camilla took it and closed her eyes.
‘Ooh.’
He had seen this on TV.
The method of picking rice grains one by one to divine the future… Splash!
‘Huh?’
Jinhyeok’s eyes shook violently.
Rice grains scattered across his face.
It was thrown so hard it even hurt a little.
Did she not like the massage?
“This doesn’t work either?”
It seemed like things weren’t going as she thought.
Camilla let out a low murmur.
“Can’t be helped.”
Camilla bit her fingertip.
Camilla applied the blood that came out to Jinhyeok’s forehead.
“How dare you apply something ominous to the Captain!”
Regardless of what Kancheo was saying, Camilla continued concentrating while ignoring him.
Jinhyeok’s tension also rose to its peak.
It was like a doctor after a health checkup not explaining the reason but saying ‘This is bad. Very bad.’
How much time had passed?
Camilla opened her eyes and shrugged her shoulders.
“I give up.”
After even applying blood?!
“Fraud! Don’t give up! Go all the way to the end!”
“What doesn’t work doesn’t work.”
Jinhyeok, who had been listening quietly, made a resolute expression.
“No, Camilla. I’m mentally prepared to accept any future. So you can tell me.”
“It’s not that. I really can’t see anything.”
Camilla let out a deep sigh and continued speaking.
“What do you think fortune telling or reading fortunes is?”
“Future prediction?”
“To some extent that’s correct, but if we’re being strict about right or wrong, it’s wrong. What fortune tellers see is the future based on the situations given at that instant moment when they’re reading the fortune.”
“So you’re saying if the situation changes, the future changes too?”
“Good, you catch on quickly. Situations can change countless times by one’s own will or external factors. Naturally the future changes accordingly. Sometimes there are people whose changes are extremely unpredictable. For such people, no matter when you read their fortune, nothing definitive can be seen.”
“So I’m that kind of case.”
“Well… roughly?”
Camilla answered vaguely and put her pipe in her mouth.
Then she leaned back in her chair with her eyes closed.
Jinhyeok understood on his own and continued the massage.
Camilla slightly opened her eyes and stared at Jinhyeok.
‘This is a first. That I couldn’t see anything.’
She didn’t show it, but honestly she was flustered.
She had even applied blood.
Something should have been visible.
But all she saw from Jinhyeok was pitch-black darkness.
“What are you glancing and stealing looks at the Captain for…”
Smack!
Camilla swung her fan.
Kancheo rolling away into the distance.
‘Is he really so unpredictable that no future is determined?’
Camilla shook her head.
Theoretically possible, but such cases are realistically difficult.
‘If not that…’
Then there was one remaining possibility.
Camilla narrowed her eyes.
Though she had never encountered such a case before.
‘A human who dares not allow me to peek, possessing a level of dignity one dimension higher than mine.’
An intrigued smile formed on Camilla’s lips as she looked at Jinhyeok.
She was truly satisfied.
He had to be at least this much to be worth serving as a master.
“I can’t stand it anymore!!”
Kancheo, who had rolled away and returned, threw himself at Camilla.
And with that, the peaceful massage time came to an end.
[Entering the 61st Floor of the Tower of Despair.]
“Grrrowl!”
“That guy possessed by Satan.”
Camilla backed away as if disgusted.
Her well-groomed long hair had been torn by Kancheo and become disheveled.
Ellia approached and lowered her voice.
“It’s best not to touch that crazy bastard, right?”
“Is he insane?”
“Exactly.”
“A perfectly fitting name.”
“What are you two hags muttering about!”
Seira grabbed Kancheo who was about to charge again.
After barely stopping the fight, they walked forward.
“Haah.”
Pure white breath scattered into the air.
From the 61st floor onward was the snowy plains section.
The cold floors dropped to minus 30 degrees Celsius as standard, with some going down to 60 degrees below.
“Ugh, it’s bone-chilling.”
“Momo’s freezing to death!”
“Whooo.”
Instead of shivering, Camilla maintained her elegant posture while puffing out smoke.
“Camilla, aren’t you cold? Can you raise heat with talismans or something?”
“No? My body has frozen stiff.”
“Huh?”
Only her mouth wasn’t frozen, so she was moving at least that.
Ellia and Momo looked at Kancheo with envious eyes.
Fluffy Kancheo, who didn’t know cold, was running around the snowy field freely today as well.
“I should have stopped by Ren Trading Company first.”
There had been contact from Yoo Su-yeon.
She said she had prepared warm fur clothes for Jinhyeok who would soon enter the 61st floor section.
He’d have to go get them tomorrow.
“Momo, can you light a campfire?”
“Yes!”
Momo lit a campfire as if she had been waiting, being too cold.
“The fire won’t catch!”
“It’s okay. With my flammable oil, there’s no problem, right?”
Ellia sprinkled black oil.
Flames instantly shot up to the sky.
This wasn’t a campfire but the level of a major fire.
“Ahhh. This is good.”
“It’s warm!”
Camilla, Ellia, and Momo gathered around the campfire as if they could finally live.
“Wait here warming yourselves by the fire. I’ll go with Seira and Dark and come back. Kancheo, let’s go too. Momo, be careful not to burn your eyebrows like last time.”
“Deploying for reconnaissance!”
Kancheo advanced rapidly through the snow in a crawling position.
The three people who didn’t know cold also moved into the snowstorm.
“Oh? Reinforcements?!”
An old man wearing thick fur clothes walked toward Jinhyeok’s group.
Like the previous orc section, the 61st floor section also had stories continuing by floors.
The grandfather who just came was Noir, the Inuit Tribe’s supreme commander leading the snowy plains battle.
“Hmm?! Today it’s not just one person! Well, the more numbers the better!”
“There’s one more but he went scouting.”
“Excellent! To perform reconnaissance before even being asked! But you’ll need to hurry. Otherwise you’ll freeze to death in this harsh cold.”
The mission on the 61st Floor is to find and destroy the Yeti Lair buried in the snow.
It’s a floor where surviving in this bitter cold is more crucial than the monsters’ actual strength.
Just when it seemed like a tunnel was forming, Kancheo popped up and revealed himself.
“Mission complete! I found a total of 27 Yeti Lairs!”
“Good, good. Once we eliminate those, we’ll clear this floor. Commander Grandfather, this little friend will guide us to the lairs.”
“There’s no need to go!”
Supreme Commander Noir drew a question mark.
“No need to go?! If we don’t deal with the ambushing yetis first, we’ll be attacked during our advance…”
Before Noir could even finish his words.
Boooooooom!!!
Massive explosions erupted from all directions.
Snow shot up high into the sky accompanied by ear-splitting roars.
Mixed in between were traces of yetis caught in the explosions.
Kancheo, the sensible Yodel Ranger unit leader.
He hadn’t just finished reconnaissance but had thoroughly planted bombs as well.
“Gyaaaaaaah!!”
Supreme Commander Noir let out a shriek with his mouth agape.
After staying like that for a while, Noir turned to look at Jinhyeok and his group.
“It’s been a while since such refreshingly efficient friends came for support!”
Pleased with their performance, Noir burst into hearty laughter.
“We didn’t do anything though. That…?”
Jinhyeok stopped mid-sentence and drew a question mark.
Dark was staring intently at something with a strangely dazed expression.
What is he looking at?
