Episode 158: An angel who dresses as a woman (8)
Poker cards and tarot cards.
An old card with stains from Yriel’s hand.
“card?”
Soya tilts her head as she looks at the card the referee took out from his pocket.
“Yes, I told you. “There is a way to read karma through cards.”
“It did.”
Soya said, ‘Card fortune? That’s nothing short of a superstition. ‘Of course, I’m not saying that because I’m not good at it!’ he grumbled, looking at the referee’s hand movements.
Pot-Pot-Pot-Pot – A very skillful card shuffle.
Soya was a little impressed by the flashy shuffling of cards.
“Oh, referee, you shuffle the cards well.”
“… “Isn’t this the basic skill of an angel?”
Since when did card shuffling become a basic skill for angels?
This refers to the basic skills of a K-angel.
Anyway, that’s it.
‘Read karma. Read in which direction the world flows. ‘It’s like putting your hand in a river and reading the current.’
Recall Yriel’s teachings.
While teaching us how to read karma, Yriel said:
“I never thought we would already identify the subject of terrorism.”
The moment when the referee drew the tower card and used it to find out that the culprit was the Superhuman Management Bureau.
“As expected, Lepriel.”
Yriel was both impressed and afraid.
The referee didn’t understand Yriel’s reaction.
“Your talent for karma is better than anyone else’s. Even better than Luciel… … .”
“You say I handle karma better than Luciel?”
However, I could at least understand what the dean was saying.
There’s something about the referee that makes him better than the devil.
no,
That monster-like demon king has something lacking.
Iriel was a little troubled as she looked at the referee with twinkling green eyes.
Because I knew what the referee expected.
“excuse me.”
“yes! “I handle karma better than Luciel, so you’re saying I’ll be stronger, right?”
“Well, it’s karma.”
An angel who looked like a girl muttered with a helpless expression.
“Actually, it’s not that useful in combat.”
“Ha, but the strongest force in the world is karma!”
“The weakest force in the world is also karma.”
The weakest force in the world is karma? The referee was increasingly unable to understand what Yriel was talking about.
“Let’s think about an abused child. “There is an adult who is bullying that child, but can karma alone stop the abuse?”
A technique used with karma.
The various powers of angels.
If you have those powers, you will be able to stop it.
“With my power, I can stop it.”
“Power is not karma. “It’s just a power that is activated by consuming karma.”
Iriel shook his head gently.
“The power that cannot save a child crying in the dark is karma. “It is too weak to be seen by people, and too faint to exist in people’s hearts.”
Her expression looked sad.
“Referee, do you understand?”
The referee didn’t understand.
So I had no choice but to add one thing.
“But, but many people say karma is the strongest force. “It is a power that stands above all the powers in the world.”
“that’s right. “Karma is such a powerful force.”
Yriel then continued speaking.
“If this world were full of bright karma, the abused child would be rescued and the adult who tormented the child would be judged. In that way, a child becomes an adult who saves another child, and with that one act of kindness, the lives of tens of thousands of people can be restored.”
Iriel’s words that begin with However.
“But if this world were dark, if it were just the middle of the night… That kid… … .”
Referee and Iriel looked at each other without saying a word. This is because Iriel’s explanation was no longer needed.
“Karma is such a powerful force. “It is the most powerful force in the world that cannot be overcome by just one angel.”
“So the ability to handle karma well has no meaning?”
The referee asked with earnestness.
Yriel shook his head once again.
“it is not so.”
Iriel put down the card and slowly took the referee’s hand.
“If you can handle karma to the limit… If I can overcome Luciel’s karma sensitivity with this ridiculous talent… … .”
“if there is?”
“Even if you lose the battle, you can still win the war.”
A word containing victory and hope.

“Let me tell you one more thing.”
“What?”
“Karma techniques that can be used when karma users are hostile to each other.”
“Oh oh… … .”
“It’s very useful in actual combat, and it’s useful in a variety of situations. “With your talent, you will be able to keep up.”
Pot-pot-pot-pot-
Yriel’s hand movements suddenly become dazzling.
The referee, who had a serious expression until now, immediately relaxed his face at the gesture.
“wow.”
“That’s what people call that technology.”
Pot-pot-pot-pot-
“Sharper.”
“Sharper?”
“Or the devil. Well, there are various sayings.”
“Demon? “I don’t know what it is, but it sounds like a bad thing to say.”
Yriel had a very serious expression and pointed at the referee with his finger.
“Referee, remember these words.”
“What is it?”
“Hands are faster than eyes.”
Completed royal straight flush.
Gulp – The referee couldn’t help but swallow his saliva when he saw that.
‘This is an angel… … ?’
That is how the legend of the card angel referee began.
People who don’t know anything will call themselves Tazza Angel referees… Tazza Angel, where in this world is there such an ugly title?
If this continues, people will say something like a phantom thief angel.
… When I think about it, it seems like I stole something during a club competition… Apparently, the angel girl was like that too… … .
… … .
That was it anyway.
* * *
So that was it anyway.
The weak angel left this earth crying loudly for a long time.
Only the strong angels survive and fight the final struggle.
This is K-Angel.
Pot-pot-pot-pot-
“Oh oh.”
The referee was lost in thought as he mindlessly shuffled the cards.
‘So think of it as playing poker.’
‘Poker game, who are you playing poker with?’
‘… … .’
Iriel smiled slightly.
‘This world.’
‘yes?’
‘This world.’
The method of reading karma is simple. Let the flow of karma guide you, draw out a card, interpret the card, and read the future.
So how about something like this?
Shuffle the cards with fancy movements.
‘For Soya, one from the bottom. And one for me.’
Rather than drawing cards completely randomly, it’s done in a completely rigged way.
‘One from below again, one from me… … !’
Soya’s grumbling could be heard at that moment.
“It just looks like sleight of hand… … .”
This wasn’t just a sleight of hand. The referee was now shuffling the cards, leaving it to the flow of karma, which meant that the card shuffle itself contained a powerful prophecy that could read the future.
‘Why on earth do we have to use this method? This is still a trick.’
‘Referee.’
Yriel said.
‘What would you do if there was a prophecy that this world would be destroyed? Do you just want to accept the prophecy?’
‘… … !’
‘The future is something we create with our own hands.’
It was just as he said.
The future is something we create with our own hands.
So the referee lied about the result.
Using a technique called Tazza, he created the prophecy he wanted.
‘This is the pinnacle of karma manipulation technology. ‘Manipulation of fate.’
Paaat – at this moment,
The moment has come when you can draw the card you want.
“release!”
And what was chosen by the referee was… … .
There were five cards in the shape of a diamond.
“Diamond Flush.”
“Hmm, I guess they just randomly shuffled the cards and picked out only diamonds. “Well, it’s just a matter of dexterity.”
“ha. ha… … .”
The referee had no power to answer.
This is because all the strength drained from my body.
A somewhat familiar feeling.
It was the feeling you get when you consume a huge amount of angel power.
‘I really shouldn’t use this technique unless the enemy is a karma user.’
The referee muttered under his breath.
“Soya.”
“Uh, uh.”
Seeing the referee having a hard time, Soya realized that this was not a simple card shuffle.
“What is the probability that five cards like this come out with the same pattern?”
“Uhm. “First of all, the probability is quite low.”
Soya quickly completed the calculation by folding and unfolding her fingers. It took exactly 3 seconds.
“Probably around 3 percent?”
“It’s a slim chance, right?”
“huh.”
“So what do diamonds mean in poker?”
“Of course it’s wealth and money. “It’s literally a diamond.”
Wave, wave, wave-
The referee, whose angelic power had been blown away, barely stood up.
Has your angel power ever been so deeply consumed?
The referee’s memories were fading a bit.
“I predicted how the fallen warrior would control this academy.”
Soya nods.
The referee mustered his strength and continued.
“Five diamonds. The Fallen Warrior is currently controlling this academy through financial means. All you have to do is track the flow of funds. “Wol and Marie will help you.”
“Referee. are you okay? voice is… … .”
The referee could feel it.
The fact that the Fallen Hero was a karma user, and that he was hiding his karma in a way he learned from the Demon King.
If you had to shuffle the Baeknal cards and create a genealogy in such a situation, you would end up with a genealogy that has no meaning or a genealogy that can only be mistaken.
‘And although it’s small, card shuffling itself consumes quite a bit of angel power.’
In that way, the referee could not have prevented the awakening of the fallen warrior.
‘So, this method is better.’
If you can’t read fate,
Manipulate fate with your own hands.
This is the method of the Tazza Angel, no, K-Angel, no, Card Angel Referee.
“Cough.”
Blood sticking out like the ingredients of soup.
There is always a strong price to pay for deceiving the world.
It’s a world where you can lose money for fooling just one gambler, but what would be the price if you fooled the world itself?
It won’t be easy to get over.
‘I didn’t know it would hurt this much.’
Referee, a regretful angel with a little regret.
My vision wavered, and I finally caught a glimpse of a girl with gray hair.
“I’m going to get some rest. Find me.”
“Referee!”
Just like that, the referee’s consciousness was cut off.
* * *
The hero chosen by the angel muttered.
“A donation?”
“Yes, you sent a large amount of donations this time too. “I always wanted to say thank you.”
“It’s a donation… … .”
After being chosen as a warrior by the archangel, the hero has never once made a donation. There’s no way they could come up with anything helpful to humans anyway.
“thank you!”
“Thank you so, so much.”
But suddenly I heard it was a donation.
And that’s the fourth time today.
“It’s just as the archangel said.”
They said there was a skill to manipulate fate. I never dreamed it would work this way.
“Then now, let’s go see the angel.”
However, the Fallen Warrior was unperturbed. Because all of this was under Archangel Luciel’s plan.
