Harvey’s head instantly felt numb. He didn’t dare reply.


    "Hmph!"


    Kairi scoffed after seeing the look on his face. She was utterly discontent, but then started to exin the situation.


    “This ce has hundreds of years worth of history. In the past, it was considered to be the most popr ce


    ever."


    "When I was a child, I came here to have my fortune told as well.”


    “It''s a shame the current owner of the ce, Reece Foley, wasn’t willing to follow in his family''s footsteps and


    pursued science instead.”


    “After his son died of an ident, he returned as a geomancy master since nobody else would take over the


    position.”


    “His geomancy arts are nothingpared to his ancestors, though. That was why he was declining.”


    “Those who came during the recent years were all old customers living down the street.”


    “They were here either because the ce was close by, or to find out their auspicious days without burning a hole


    in their wallets.”


    “Because of this, the Fortune Hall soon declined.”


    “Ah, yes. Six months ago, Reece''s only granddaughter, the ninth descendant of the Fortune Hall, Leona Foley,


    suddenly lost her vision and strength.”


    "She was said to have the most potential to inherit the Fortune Hall, along with the family’s geomancy arts. With her


    talent, it’d be possible to regain the shop''s previous glory.”


    "Some of the wealthy families in Golden Sands were interested in her as well.”


    “But as soon as she was about to finish her studies, she lost her eyesight. All the strength from her body


    disappeared as well. When she checked her condition in the hospital, nothing showed up.”


    "Some said it was the curse of their family, after they had leaked God’s n for many years.”


    “Reece tried using geomancy arts to fix her condition, but nothing worked.”


    “He gave uppletely after that."


    “He nned to sell Fortune Hall and take Leona overseas for treatment.”


    “He would give up everything just for her to get well again.”


    Harvey nodded after hearing Kairi’s exnation.


    He then studied his surroundings with narrowed eyes.


    "This shop is in a pretty good spot. The environment and name of the shop are really nice, too.”

    "We can use this as our shop.”


    “That said, this is still the main city. It’s a peaceful ce surrounded by a bustling environment. I’m sure it’s very


    expensive, right?”


    Before Kairi could reply, a tired and miserable voice could be heard from behind them.


    “I''ll sell it for a hundred and fifty million dors.”


    Harvey and Kairi looked back, and saw an old man with a slightly unkempt beard. He seemedpletely exhausted


    as he walked out with crossed arms.


    An unimaginable sorrow could be felt in him, as if he had no way out of his misery.


    If it wasn’t for his profound gaze, nobody would''ve believed him to be a geomancy expert.


    “This is the expert, Reece Foley.”


    Kairi introduced the man to Harvey, then smiled warmly.


    “Master Foley, this is my good friend Harvey.
