I Became a Foreign Worker Loved by Transcendents

Chapter 5: The Last Descendant Of The Goddess Of Destruction

Chapter 5: The Last Descendant Of The Goddess Of Destruction

The Goddess of Destruction, Angolmois.

Perhaps no one who currently existed knew the exact details about her.

It was vaguely conveyed that long ago, she descended to this land to destroy the world, but for some reason, she stopped, bore a child with a human, and then left the world.

However, the Haven family was convinced that they carried the blood of such a being.

Those who inherited the familys blood were all born with the power to read the movements of the stars, and through this power, they awakened the incredible ability to observe a moment in the future.

Yes, if they had that power, the Haven family could be free from any danger

Airi, our family will soon be destroyed.

For Airi, who had believed so firmly.

It was shocking to hear such words from the head of their family and her father.

Destroyed? Why are you suddenly saying such a thing?

You will understand it when you read this record.

Saying so, Airis father handed her an old book.

The author of that book was none other than Haven himself, their ancestor.

[My descendants, I truly love you who have inherited the blood of my great mother, but the future written in this book may be impossible to alter, even with the power you were born with.]

[This is because the mother, called the Goddess of Destruction, left this land without fulfilling her mission, having foreseen a future where this world would eventually move towards destruction, even if she did not accomplish it herself.]

It was a letter, or perhaps a prophecy, sent to the descendants.

Even though it was a record left a very long time ago, its content could not be overlooked.

How could they ignore the contents of a record left in the distant past when their pride and everythingthe power to read the futurecame from her?

This world is going to be destroyed soon?

The ancestors prophecy was written like this: On the day preceding the time of destruction, extraterrestrial beings will invade this land, the dead will rise and move again, beasts will stand on two feet and speak human words, and even the night when everyone should rest will not be safe.

Demons, undead, beasts, and vampires.

All the beings currently disturbing this world had been destined to appear on this land since thousands of years before the prophecy was written.

The chaos unfolded by them would eventually lead to the worlds destruction, so the Goddess of Destruction, intent on realizing this lands demise, abandoned even her desire for this mission and left this place

The empire is currently gathering extraterrestrial beings to rectify such a world, but the power-seekers clinging to them are only pursuing immediate benefits, even corrupting the roots of civilization that humanity has built.

Even humanity, which should be the last hope, was focused only on selfish desires without reading the future, so how could hope be found in this world?

As it was also written in the prophecy, no one in the family, including Airis father, denied the prophecy.

Even the future written at the end of the prophecy, stating that the family inheriting the blood of the Goddess of Destruction will disappear from this world.

So we must just wait for such a future?

But to watch such a future unfold helplessly. Was that truly the only option?

If there was no way to change the future they had read, then preparing their minds to accept the coming future was

Must we really just stand by and watch as our family disappears?

To the grieving Airi, her father resolutely voiced the decision he had reached after much thought.

No, the destruction will be in our own hands.

The demigod Haven family was born with the power to read the future as descendants of the Goddess of Destruction.

Their family, who had inherited her blood, would end their lineage not by anyone elses hand but by suicide.

What does that mean

Airi, from now on, our family will bestow upon you all the powers we were born with.

It wasnt giving up on the future.

To find answers that they themselves cannot find now, they intend to make a final gamble to manifest once again the power possessed by the one who wrote this prophecy.

If we gather our powers, which have gradually weakened over generations and through the division of blood, in one place, then surely your potential will reach a level comparable to that of our ancestor.

Ha, but if we do that, everyone except me will no longer be able to read the future. Everyone except me will be unable to prepare for the dangers to come.

On the contrary, you, who will possess the strongest power among us, will be able to read what even we cannot read now. Although it may not be enough, there still exists a chance to slightly raise the possibility from zero.

If destruction was already destined, then a final gamble must be made.

She understood that, but Airi inevitably felt burdened by inheriting such a responsibility.

Why does it have to be me?

Its simple. You are the youngest among us at the time the prophecy was foretold.

After all, an individuals fate existed only as long as their lifespan.

Therefore, if a gamble was to be made, it would be wise to place it on the youngest among those born with the abilities of a fortune teller.

We know we are giving you a heavy responsibility. So, we wont ask too much of you. If its hopeless, even after receiving this power, you can give up. You dont have to save everything. Just pursue the best outcome you can achieve.

Father.

Remember, Airi. You are only responsible for as much of the future as you can handle.

It was a fervent request made by the entire family, sharing the same blood, bowing their heads.

Airi had no choice but to reluctantly agree, and from the ceremony held that day, the entire family lost their power.

Now, they could no longer read the flow of the stars and had fallen into the state of ordinary people, unaware of the dangers to come.

On the contrary, Airis power grew stronger, and through this enhanced power, her understanding of the fate unknown to the family members with their fading powers increased.

Fate means the countless paths that diverge through collisions in the process of everything in this world moving according to its will, and through the sequential reactions caused by it

The path was as complex and vast as the countless branches it extended into, and the present was determined when it moved toward the place where the thickest or most numerous branches were intertwined.

The future known so far through fortune telling was, after all, just about identifying the most probable among them.

One might attempt to read such a future and try to change it, but when the most easily ascertainable future was lost, the choice would naturally be the unknown, which couldnt be foreseen even an inch ahead.

But now, having inherited the familys power, I can faintly discern that unknown.

Yes, it could be discerned.

Even if there was a mere sliver of possibility among the branches that split almost infinitely.

The path leading to the fervently desired future of the one who sees the future itself.

Stars, please teach me how to pursue the path that aligns with my wishes.

Airi, who embarked on the path of a fortune teller, prayed for the first time.

She prayed to the heavens, refusing to live a life merely conforming to a predetermined fate.

If there really was a possibility to fulfill her wishes.

Beyond preventing the worlds destruction, if there was a way to revive her now powerless family, she asked for an answer.

[Go to the empire.]

The crystal ball, showing the future, answered her question.

It was an abstract short sentence, suggesting a distant event yet to come and its faint possibility.

Yet, it seemed the possibility was not zero; the flow of the stars was clearly returning the answer she desired.

[Foretell the fates of others there, and find someone whose potential aligns with your ideals. Advise them about their future, and if you form a bond with them, the path to reviving your family may also continue]

If she couldnt do it alone, shed find someone who had the potential to save the world and assist them.

That was the end of the guesses she could make from those words.

Besides, whether due to her lack of power or because the future was still far away, her analysis revealed nothing distinct

Right, only as much as I can handle.

She didnt know how much she could follow this abstract content, but if she dismissed it as nonsense, the world would meet its destruction, following the most probable path.

Ultimately, the only ones who could create variables in such a future were those who had read it in advance.

Now, as the only one born with that power in this land, she had a strong sense of mission for such a task.

I will definitely do it. For the best outcome I desire

Everything was to escape the inevitable future that would come to this world as a fortune teller.

And to revive her family, which entrusted everything to her.

Yes, with such a mindset, she entered the streets of this empire and went about foretelling peoples fortunes.

-Come on, tell me. What is your identity?

-Yes, y-yes. I-I am Mr. Hyo-sungs dog~

-Kuhuhu, if you say youre a dog, then lets hear you bark like one.

-Aang~ Aaaang~

Ugh, aaaah!

An embarrassingly vulgar scene, too cringeworthy to watch further.

Airi, unable to believe that she was witnessing a mans future involving herself, finally blushed and started to tremble, her hands infusing power into the crystal ball.

This, this cant be right. The future is wrong! Yes, it must be

Wrong?

No, that cant be.

Fate was just a matter of higher or lower probabilities.

She wanted to deny it simply because she was so shocked, but there was no such thing as a wrong future.

In other words, what was revealed in this crystal ball was one of the possible futures that could occur.

And if there was even a slight chance that what she anticipated would be realized, the crystal ball shows such a future as if to prove it.

Then does that mean that person sees me as such a subject?

The future where she is involved was expected, and the result about it was derived through this crystal ball reacting to her power.

Unlike when she divined her own wishes, it didnt just appear as vague words.

The clearer the content, the higher the likelihood of realization, meaning it would happen in the near future.

This meant that soon, she would be played by that man, descending into the vulgar creature as shown in this crystal ball

Hey, snap out of it!

Slap!

Airi erased such thoughts by slapping her own cheek.

Feeling the shock, Airi took a deep breath and tried to calm her composure.

Airi, calm down. Now is not the time to be distracted by such things.

What she saw was just one of the possibilities.

Whether that possibility could be realized or not depended on the efforts of the one who saw the future.

Even if she expected such a future, the way she would respond afterward would surely determine if this future could be avoided.

If not, she just needed to keep her distance from that person to begin with.

But what if this person is someone who can change the fate of the world?

Yes, the problem was that she had not yet found the person who met her expectations.

Even if she didnt want it, the fact that a future with someone had appeared for her, who was responsible for finding that person, assisting, and further reviving her family, was something that couldnt be ignored.

What if, by rashly denying this future, the possibility she had finally found faded away?

Yes, thats right. I may be a weak reincarnator, but its not like theres no possibility at all.

Gulping, Airi, with tense eyes, stared at the scene unfolded in the crystal ball before her.

Perhaps the possibility of a future might unfold before her.

Lying on the bed like a dog, sticking out her tongue, etching the image of herself soliciting courtship from the man she confronted.

Woof Woof!

Seeing that scene, Airi blushed but began to spread her hands, covering her eyes.

.

The day after hearing such incomprehensible fortunes.

As always, when I visited the Labor Union, the main workplace of the foreign workers, I ended up making a dumbfounded expression after hearing what the guild master, who was waiting there, said.

Do you know that youve been blacklisted among the heroes?

What?

Me, who was practically a corpse without diligence and adaptability, was blacklisted in this world?

Why on earth?
