I Became a Face Genius at the Academy

Chapter 168

Those who have firm faith do not change easily.

This is because people do not want to accept other people’s opinions until they admit that they are completely wrong.

“No matter what I say, it won’t change.”

Hearing Tane’s powerless voice, Hira quietly closed her eyes and thought.

Therefore, persuasion is repressive. You have to refute and deny all the opponent’s moves, but if you are in an unequal position and there is no basis for refutation, how can you persuade them?

Since this is normally impossible, persuasion is not possible.

‘What I do is compulsion.’

Shilin said so.

It’s a handshake to bump into the other person’s faith. It’s like crashing your head into a well-prepared fortress, so what you need is coercion, not persuasion.

It is to persistently target the opponent’s weaknesses, find contradictions, threaten them, and make them give the answers they want.

“Since I was born, every night I’ve seen a future I didn’t want.”

“What kind of future was it?”

“end.”

Tane answered briefly.

“What kind of apocalypse, exactly?”

“It was different. I’ve seen your death thousands of times. Do you really want to hear that? There are many kinds of death.”

Hira shook her head.

This is Tane’s stronghold. It’s the right place to take a step back. You have to find another way out.

“That’s why I don’t like meeting people.”

“Why?”

“In my head, everything was torn to pieces and dead. All of them with a savage appearance.”

With an eerie smile, Tane brought his index finger horizontally in front of his eyes.

Perhaps the position is between your own head and shoulders. It doesn’t show on the outside, but it’s also creepy. Hera took a slow breath.

“Then you said you knew that I would come to meet Your Highness.”

“know… … It’s wrong to say Because I’ve seen too many futures. Sometimes you come and sometimes you don’t.”

“okay.”

question.

Did you really see ‘all the future’?

Is that possible?

‘It’s impossible.’

Hira shook her head inwardly.

How old is Tane? He wasn’t even thirty.

‘Every night in my dreams.’

Tane said thousands of times.

yeah that’s the limit

Thousands at most. There are not only thousands of actions you can do in this room.

Hira lifted the teacup that was on the table. There are still contents left.

Chew!

“… … .”

Tain’s eyebrows twitched.

This is because Hira, holding a teacup, suddenly poured tea over my head.

Since it was half full, Hira, whose hair was soaked, asked.

“Is there such a future?”

Weakness found.

Even if we reach the conclusion of destruction, it is a sure gap that the dreams of tomorrow are not completely identical to the dreams we have had so far.

First, it destroys the certainty of the future that Tane knew.

“Sorry, but I already saw it.”

Clink!

Hira threw the teacup she was holding against the wall and broke it. Sharp shards shattered on the floor.

“This one?”

“When I said the same thing just now, it’s exactly the same flow.”

“… … under.”

“To supplement, you killed me on the spot. Of course, the conclusion did not change. Because the time in my dreams continues even after I die.”

is being read

The corners of Tain’s mouth were strangely raised. Rather than a mockery, it is an expression of pity.

Hira had seen that expression on someone else before.

‘Why do you sleep so much?’

I once asked a child. It was before I even went to Summer Turge. There were many peers of Aini’s age in the imperial family, but they would pick themselves up and say that they could communicate at least.

‘yes. Even when you don’t look sleepy, you’re always rolling around.’

‘Eh, I’m not sure if I can understand.’

In fact, Hera simply wanted to point out. Sleeping too much is also harmful to the body.

However, the answer that came back unexpectedly was profound.

‘If I’m looking at someone, what will that person say and do? Things like this just pop up in my head.’

‘Does that work?’

‘Most of them fit. Even slightly off. So, should I just say it’s like a doll… … .’

everything works as expected

Then, everyone except himself began to look like a doll wearing a human mask.

It’s scary.

‘It’s not fun.’

‘It’s a serious problem.’

‘it’s okay. That’s why I don’t deliberately think about it when I meet someone.’

Sometimes I thought that the child was acting too thoughtlessly, disrespectfully, but I never thought that would be true.

Tane now is not much different from the child back then. However, at that time, Hira thought only to herself.

“Was there a future where I would tear out Your Highness’ hair right now?”

This time I took it out of my mouth.

“There was nothing like that… … .”

“Stay still for a moment.”

“… … Hey.”

Hira strode forward and stretched out her hand before Tane could say anything.

It wasn’t for fun. Hira pulled as hard as she could at her blonde hair, which was gathered in a handful.

Even Tane couldn’t help but scream here.

“Ah!”

“I like dice. Sometimes gamblers’ dice are cleverly low in probability of a certain roll.”

fake dice faked.

The center of gravity is set differently, so there is a low probability of high eyes when rolling.

The other day, it was used to cause Rockstrin to lose on purpose in the system.

It’s not that it doesn’t come out. just infrequently. Because that’s how people get tricked.

“There are times when a 6 doesn’t come out even if you throw a die like that a hundred times.”

It’s not fair.

It’s like this world.

“What if the dice didn’t have a 6 in the first place?”

“Even so, there’s no law that you can’t roll a 6 next turn.”

“You are insane.”

Tane frowned as he stroked his torn hair.

Thane thinks that the probability is beyond manipulation, and it must be a die without a 6 from the beginning. No matter how many times I throw it, it’s meaningless.

You never know.

“because.”

A dice without a 6.

“We haven’t rolled the dice yet.”

Hira looked down at the palm that was holding the fifteen strands of her blond hair.

didn’t throw

still holding in hand

Either drawing new numbers on the fraudulent dice made by the wicked gambler, or changing them. Anyway, I’ll do the trick. As much as that may be possible.

“So, that’s what it was.”

It’s a success.

With the conviction that he would not change, he pulled out Tane from the tightly closed castle. It was a farce for that.

“I never said I would disturb you guys.”

“If you tried to interfere, there is no way that Lox would have left Her Highness alone.”

“Do whatever you feel like.”

Hearing Tane’s annoyed voice, Hira walked toward the wall. If the attendant saw it, there would be trouble, so I had to clean up the broken teacup.

Of course, the real purpose was different.

“What if the foretold death awaits?”

“… … .”

Hera placed a particularly large and sharp piece from the broken teacup in front of Thane.

You can’t carry any blades when climbing the imperial stairs, but a piece this size is enough to tear through the delicate skin.

“Why are you alive?”

Hira asked calmly.

“What?”

“So, why are you still alive without committing suicide right away?”

“… … .”

Thein was speechless.

From the moment he pulled his hair out, he was unknown to Tane. I have never come this far from thousands of futures.

This was also a radical statement that could not have been made with Hira’s personality.

“Isn’t that so? Are you going to wait that long and be eaten alive by monsters? Are you so sick? There must be any number of easy ways to die.”

Dealing with a person whose faith is once broken is not that difficult. It shoots so you don’t have time to think. mess up your brain

widely.

Then, Hira took out a small bottle of medicine from her bosom and put it down.

“His Highness, have you heard? Ignore poison. A poison banned across the continent before the Mythic Revolution. Everyone in the aristocratic family stocks one of these.”

Colorless, odorless poison.

If you inhale even one drop, you die. Hundreds of years have passed since it was banned, as it is said that the whole body stiffens before even feeling pain.

“Because Yuxilla has many enemies, if something goes wrong, it’s often difficult to stay alive. It’s better to die, so carry it with you.”

Hira opened the lid herself and held out the vial right in front of Thein.

“Is that comfortable enough? As Your Highness said, it’s an obvious world, so please die in peace now. There is no opportunity like this.”

As if it was a golden opportunity, Hira urged Tane.

Thein reached for the vial, but couldn’t lift it.

Hira waited for about a minute. Tane was still as hard as stone.

“Can’t you drink?”

“… … .”

“There is no one in the world who wants to die. It is instinct to want to live. Because we are ordinary people who are subject to instinct.”

Hira laughed inwardly as she spoke. I know one person who doesn’t.

he is such a special person I don’t even want to die now.

By that standard, Tane is an extremely ‘normal’ person.

“… … what do you want.”

Thein had no choice but to admit it.

It looks like he gave up everything, but he was just in despair. I was tormented by terrible dreams every day, so I couldn’t afford to see the real reality.

I still have no regrets, so I’m still alive. Hira was right.

Hera took the vial back and said.

“I need the future that Your Highness saw.”

This is the condition that Rocktrin suggested.

If there is one condition that can change the dice, that is, change the future. to know that future.
