I Became a Fortune Teller in the Game My Little Sister Made – Chapter 240

That night, after a whole night of partying on the cruise and returning, I was utterly exhausted.

Having enjoyed swimming on the private jet and indulged in luxurious facilities and top-notch cuisine to the point of saturation, I collapsed onto my bed and fell asleep in an instant.

“……Rain?”

“You’re awake, Namgoong Min.”

At some point, I woke up to find Rain sitting at the table… This isn’t a horror movie, right? I nearly had a heart attack.

Glancing at the clock, it was already close to evening. How many hours did I sleep?

By the way, this is… super awkward.

“Rain, I’m really sorry.”

“Huh?”

“Isn’t today your turn? You shouldn’t have overslept because of yesterday. I could tell Jisoo to give us one more day…”

“Oh, that’s fine. I had quite a fun time.”

“What?”

“Just watching your sleeping face… it was rather entertaining.”

Um, how should I respond to that? What increases my survival rate more, changing the subject or fending it off slyly?

“Still, you have to accept my apology.”

“Y-Yeah? I mean, oversleeping until dinner isn’t something to scoff at.”

Thud.

“………Rain?”

“I can smell that psycho’s scent all over your body.”

“…………….”

As I tried to get up from the bed, Rain forcibly pushed me back down with a gaze that could kill.

With all those other thoughts popping up in the back of my mind, I felt genuinely terrified.

“Luckily, it seems you didn’t go too far, but I still find it extremely unpleasant. It’s like you’ve been marked like a dog…”

“Well, even so, calling him a dog guy is a bit…”

“Are you siding with that psycho? Today is supposed to be my day!”

“……Liu is definitely a puppy.”

“Anyway, you’re awake now, right? So let’s get ready to go out?”

Job Skill <Superpower>

With just a flick of her finger, Rain opened the base’s door and simply floated me in the air while walking toward the exit.

Hey, I can walk just fine too!

“Rain? There’s really no need to carry me like this.”

“You might fall.”

“………Huh?”

Fall? From where?

Surely she’s not talking about the bed, and this is the first basement, so how—

“It’s a specially prepared place.”

“……Huh?”

“Don’t be too scared.”

—I’m falling.

I thought that for a moment, I almost activated <My Little Fortune Teller’s Shop>.

Outside the door was… the sky.

‘What?’

Only then could I properly see outside.

The evening sky slowly dimming, not a cloud in sight. Instead of familiar streets, what lay beneath were seas of clouds and the sun.

My base—or rather, the building where I stayed—was floating three floors high in the sky.

“Th-this is…?”

“It’s a place made just for today.”

It wasn’t just my building that was floating.

Land that rose like an island, waterfalls flowing from that island, and other floating buildings sculpted in all sorts of angles and shapes—it was a place that could be called a sky island without a doubt.

I fell toward it.

“………Ah.”

But I felt no fear. There was no hint of fear in the heights, as the ground was shrouded in a sea of clouds; instead, I was captivated by the spectacle of the sky island unfolding before my eyes.

And with Rain’s <Superpower> aiding me, the refreshing wind and clear air made it even better.

Rain, who was falling alongside me, wore a delightfully carefree and joyful expression.

With a smile, she whispered,

“This is a place just for the two of us.”

And that was the second day.

*

Whoosh!

The place I landed was a small lake on the sky island.

Like Rain, who land lightly on the surface, I too felt a strange sensation of standing on water.

All thanks to the assistance of <Superpower>.

“This lake too… with <Superpower>?”

“I just used psychokinesis to shape it.”

Wait, that’s possible? This is insane!

Not just the lake, but the entire sky island, Rain’s <Superpower> was something that transcended logic.

‘Just looking around… it seems to be a few soccer fields in size.’

It’s amazing that she can maintain such a large piece of land with <Superpower>, but I’m more frightened of what would happen if this massive sky island were to plummet.

Literally like a meteor striking the ground. Isn’t Rain the strongest after all?

‘Thank goodness she resolved the strong-weak situation.’

Is it a relief that Rain, who became this strong, is still dealing with the weak-strong situation? Perhaps she was hunting down the Principal instead.

Choosing Rain for the first character event was probably a divine move.

As I was looking around, Rain approached me.

“What do you think? Isn’t it pretty great?”

“Rain, it’s not just great; it’s fantastic. I just never expected your <Superpower> to be this strong.”

“All thanks to you, Namgoong Min. You’ve assisted me greatly in many ways…”

Yeah, just the fact that you didn’t leave me as a villain is already a significant help to the world.

If anything, perhaps if I had just fought Hector, Rain would have won.

While I was lost in thought, Rain grabbed my hand.

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine. You tend to get lost in thought from time to time, Namgoong Min… so, shall we take a walk?”

A stroll on the sky island.

I couldn’t resist that.

“I’d love to.”

After Liu’s money display, although overwhelming, I doubted it would surpass the pure thrill I felt now.

The sky island created by <Superpower> was dreamy in itself.

Floating rocks, forests and gardens manipulated to look beautiful while being nature itself, and the unique experience of walking on the walls of buildings lying down.

And above all, the presence of Rain, who genuinely sparkled with joy.

“Hehe.”

Not stopping at merely holding hands, she openly began to squeeze my hand.

With a sticky hand dance and occasionally licking her lips while looking at me.

…This definitely is suggesting a kiss at goodbye, right? The one that involves tongue?

‘No way…’

Could it be that Rain made the sky island for that sort of purpose? That wouldn’t make sense, right?

Do you believe me?

“Namgoong Min.”

“Huh?”

“You trust me, right?”

“………….”

Why on earth would she say such a thing?

While I was busy enjoying the surroundings, is the meaning behind her gaze fixed on me while walking?

While taking a stroll, she wasn’t just gazing at me but was also resting her head on my arm.

Unlike Liu, it was obvious that her intentions were clear.

What’s more, the end of this stroll was…

“……Hotel?”

“Romantic, right?”

Ending in romance… right?

Isn’t it?

*

Swoosh—

Sure, we were floating with the entire building, but the hot water came pouring out enticingly in the hotel shower.

How are the pipes and boilers working… who cares?

Reality is just an escapist fantasy where nothing changes.

I went to the hotel with Rain.

That too, in a suite with dim lighting and a heart-shaped bed.

‘Back when it was Liu, it was a private jet.’

Dragged to a hotel at the end of the promenade, I found myself washing up in the bathroom on Rain’s orders as she pushed me in to get rid of Liu’s scent.

‘Really? Seriously?’

Back then, when I was getting all flirty with Liu, I turned it down due to treaties, but is it the turning point now?

If it’s the sky island floating above the Romance Academy, I could freely ignore any disruption from Liu, Eun-ha, or Eileen.

No, more than that…

‘What do I even want?’

Do I want to? Absolutely. Especially if it’s with someone as beautiful as Rain.

I could easily step over that line at any moment.

Feeling strange terror while being in that situation.

Is it because of my loneliness? Or is it because I’ve never had even a single friend before?

Until a few months ago, I could delay the inevitable until after the ending, but now that I’ve already killed a former god, I’m out of options.

Shouldn’t Rain have arranged it to this extent?

I feel like I’m thinking too sympathetically—

Creak.

“Huh?”

“Namgoong Min.”

—In an instant, I froze, still washing.

Even though I had just contemplated what to do with Rain moments ago, I simply couldn’t turn around.

As I faced the wall, something gentle pressed against my back.

“………!!”

“What do you think?”

I had just enough time to ponder what was responsible for the softness I felt on my back and waist, given Rain’s voice and height.

Using <Superpower>, it would have been so easy for her to face me directly.

Instead, Rain was rubbing her skin against me, seemingly embarrassed.

“R-Rain, why are you here?”

“Of course, I came to wash up too.”

But why now?!

As all sorts of thoughts rushed through my mind, Rain whispered in my ear, as if on tiptoe.

“You can do it here, it’s fine.”

“………!!”

Hearing those words from Rain, I quickly shut my eyes and bolted out of the bathroom.

I couldn’t find my clothes anywhere. Instead, all I found was a bathrobe lying there.

Hurriedly throwing on the robe, I plopped down onto the heart-shaped bed.

“Phew…”

Oh, I’m truly going mad.

If I’m going to run away, I should’ve dashed out of the hotel. Just stepping outside of the bathroom and plopping on the bed makes no sense.

If I was going to do it, I should’ve faced Rain in the bathroom…

‘What an idiot I am.’

Running away like this—can I even escape? Why am I running away in the first place?

This is ultimately my karma and merely a confession of affection from her. It’s something that naturally happens between a man and a woman.

Above all, Rain must’ve put in a significant effort to enter the bathroom, denying her own feelings directly.

‘What to do…’

Thinking that made the concern for Rain flood back to me like a tide. Although I rejected her affection, I couldn’t help but worry about the pain it inflicted.

Isn’t that just giving medicine after inflicting the wound?

Right now… what I need to do is—

‘My mindset.’

Don’t run away…

At least face it head-on.

I can’t quite put into words the emotions and feelings I’m experiencing but—

At this moment where Rain still hasn’t come out of the bathroom.

I’ve never felt this coherently tense in my life.

And then…

Squeak.

“……! Rain!!”

“………Namgoong Min.”

Rain came out of the bathroom, not in her regular outfit, but instead wearing my pajamas…

‘Huh?’

My pajamas? Huh?

Not the bathrobe??

“Rain, um… what’s that?”

“I brought it separately. It’s a bit big for me. It looks like a one-piece outfit even though I only wore the top, right?”

“………Huh?”

You just wore the top?

Then what’s underneath that button…

Swoosh.

“Namgoong Min.”

“R-Rain.”

Rain drew closer in the somewhat oversized pajamas.

The sleeves drooping so much they almost hid her hands and the gap between the buttons along with the exposed skin near her neck left her utterly defenseless.

The sight of her smiling while approaching made me instinctively want to run.

‘…You dimwit. You just decided on that!’

I promised myself I wouldn’t run away. I’d meet her head-on.

Thus…

“……Are you not running away?”

“Ah, I apologize. First off, Rain.”

“What kind of apology is this?”

“With my actions of fleeing from the bathroom… that isn’t how I should handle things. Rejecting your affections like that isn’t appropriate for someone who is meant to accept them.”

“…………Hmm.”

So…

“I’m prepared now…!!”

“Prepared for what?”

“To lay in bed!!”

Let’s lie down first. Let’s lie down and think.

Though it’s a huge heart-shaped bed, there are pillows and blankets, so if I lay side by side up there, everything should be fine.

Determined, I settled in the bed first…

Hehe.

“Just like I thought, Namgoong Min.”

“……Rain?”

“Ah, it’s a failure. A disappointment. Too bad.”

As Rain giggled and laughed, she sat on a small sofa beside the bed instead of the bed itself.

…Thank goodness I was lying down before, or else various things would have been exposed… was that even a blessing?

Anyway, Rain, who had grabbed a blanket from the couch to cover her lower half, was looking at me.

With a rather dumbfounded expression, I sat up from the bed.

“Did you not hear from that psycho? We can’t pounce on Namgoong Min.”

“Well, even so, in the bathroom…”

“‘We can’t’ means it violates the treaty, but if Namgoong Min attacks first… it’s not considered a violation.”

Ah.

“I tried my best to tempt you, so it’s disappointing. Even so, there were some gains.”

“…Gain?”

“For one, that you reacted, and truly wanted to have fun. That’s enough for me.”

The dim lighting cast a glow from the moonlight coming through the window slowly.

“Honestly, even thinking about concluding everything in one day seems foolish.”

“……Is that so?”

“Of course. My connection with Namgoong Min isn’t something that can change just in one day. Everything we’ve built until now proves our bond.”

That’s why Rain didn’t say anything even though I slept until evening.

Ultimately what mattered to her wasn’t just this day but the time spent with me.

“I want to be with you. Not just in mind but also physically.”

“……….”

“Feel free to think of me as someone who just has a lot of sexual desire. Remember that deep kiss at goodbye? You’d be surprised at how many times I did it while thinking of that.”

“…………Um.”

“I believe I’ve been patient enough. Since the day I first chased after you and received the <Lover> card, through the Skill Thief at the Great Lake, and even the duel with Hector, and right up to dealing with the Principal. I, Rain Arthur… was merely someone who needed help from you.”

Thus…

“I wanted to give you this body. Initially, I wanted to bond with you, but now I want something a bit different.”

“……Different how?”

“In a more romantic place, with a more romantic atmosphere, and with more romantic words….”

Together with you.

“I want to have the best first night.”

Only with you.

“So, Namgoong Min.”

But tonight isn’t that night.

“Let’s sit beside each other and cover ourselves with the blanket.”

With a somewhat blank expression, Namgoong Min gradually moved beside Rain.

When they covered themselves with the blanket, it was done very carefully.

Every action of Namgoong Min was tremendously adorable in the eyes of Rain.

“……I’ve covered myself.”

“Please kiss me.”

“………….”

“The rejection from earlier in the bathroom, I’ll take it with this.”

Having already had a kiss during the goodbye, the threshold seems to have lowered, or is he excited too?

Namgoong Min immediately explored Rain’s lips.

That alone would have been just another kiss shared with Liu or Eun-ha, but it didn’t end there; their tongues intertwined fleetingly.

“Ah, Hmph.”

“Haah…”

Had it been a minute? Namgoong Min and Rain gazed at each other while gasping for breath.

“Ah, if you’re feeling it… it’s absolutely fine. Touching is fine too, taking me to bed is absolutely fine.”

The only thing holding them back was that one thin layer of clothing, but waiting a bit longer wasn’t too hard.

Rain Arthur watched Namgoong Min, who was approaching for another kiss, and smiled.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

…Right now, this was.

The happiest moment of her life.

Sadly, that night ended with just a kiss.
