The Wizard of Fairy Tale World

Chapter 13: The Prophet Who Knows the Future

The Violet Fairy lowered her head slightly, lost in brief contemplation.

What kind of blessing would be most effective in countering the Black Witch’s curse at this moment?

Before she could voice her thoughts, the young magician suddenly mimicked her tone, adopting a solemn manner as he declared:

“Princess Aurora, even if you are pricked by the spindle, you will not die but will instead fall into a deep sleep. The people of the kingdom will also fall into slumber rather than perish. A kiss from someone who truly loves you will awaken you and break the curse!”

The silver-haired boy turned to the Violet Fairy, his expression calm, and asked:

“Is this the blessing you were about to suggest to me?”

“Yes... Yes, that’s exactly it!” the Violet Fairy stammered, taken aback.

She stared at him in confusion.

The Violet Fairy couldn’t find fault with Lord Rhine’s proposed blessing.

It was exactly what she would have come up with after careful deliberation. She had no doubt that if she were in Rhine’s position, this would be the blessing she would choose to give.

However, as a well-learned witch, the Violet Fairy knew that some magicians specialized in mind-reading and prophecy magic, so she didn’t dwell on it too much.

Perhaps Lord Rhine has skills in this area as well, she thought.

She bowed deeply to Rhine, her voice sincere and filled with excitement:

“Lord Rhine, please use the exact words you just spoke and bestow your blessing upon Princess Aurora!”

As a kind-hearted witch, she, like the King, didn’t want to see the curse fulfilled.

What’s more, the Violet Fairy herself was part of the kingdom—she was also a target of the curse!

The Black Witch, as the one who cast the curse, would likely be unaffected after leaving the kingdom.

But the Violet Fairy feared that for the twelve witches and the rest of the kingdom’s residents, even leaving might not help. The curse could follow them relentlessly, sparing no one!

At the same time, the old King seemed to find new strength.

“That’s right! In addition to Lord Rhine’s blessing, I, as the ruler of this kingdom, will do my utmost to prevent the conditions of the curse from being fulfilled!

“I will confiscate every spindle in the kingdom and forbid the Princess from ever leaving the palace. My daughter will never come into contact with a spindle!

“If there are no spindles, Princess Aurora cannot be pricked by one!

“The Black Witch’s curse will never come to pass!”

Rhine calmly summarized:

“So, your plan is this: I will first give Princess Aurora the blessing we just discussed, transforming the curse’s effect from ‘death’ to ‘sleep.’

“Then, Your Majesty will confiscate all the spindles in the kingdom, addressing the curse at its root.

“With this double safeguard, we can fight against the curse.

“Is that correct?”

The old King, the still-shaken Queen, and the twelve witches all nodded in agreement.

This seemed like the best—and indeed the only—way to counter the curse.

Surely, there isn’t a better blessing to give, is there?

Rhine sighed softly, but instead of immediately beginning the blessing, he turned and bowed to the King:

“Your Majesty, before I bestow the blessing, would you like me to make a prophecy about the future?

“Would you like me to reveal what lies ahead if we attempt to counter the curse in this way?”

Hearing Rhine’s words, the Queen suddenly remembered the first time she met this young magician and the precise prophecy he had made.

“I almost forgot—our Court Mage, Lord Rhine, is also a prophet who can see the future!” she exclaimed with delight, turning to the witches to share this revelation.

The witches and the King exchanged glances before turning to Rhine.

“Of course, Lord Rhine, please make a prophecy,” they urged.

The Violet Fairy, however, wasn’t particularly impressed by the idea of prophecy.

As the leader of the witches, she was familiar with divination and prophecy techniques. Unlike ordinary people like the King and Queen, she understood that most prophecies were vague and cryptic, often more misleading than helpful.

Rhine nodded slightly, hiding the smile in his heart.

From the King and Queen, he could sense an intense desire—an ardent wish to know what the future held.

He had deliberately steered the conversation so they would request this prophecy from him, creating the perfect opportunity to fulfill their “wish” and absorb the resulting wish energy.

“Allow me to part the veil of destiny and glimpse the truth of the future!”

As the young magician chanted, his body began to levitate slightly.

The wide sleeves of his robe fluttered, though there was no wind, and his chin lifted as his silver eyes glowed with an ethereal light.

This looks amazing... I’ve never seen magic like this before, the Violet Fairy thought, her curiosity piqued.

A few seconds later, the boy descended slowly, the silver glow in his eyes fading.

“Your Majesty, I have pierced the veil of destiny and seen the picture of the future.

“Allow me to reveal it to you!”
