"You can't figure it out?" Crow Xi laughed. "You don't need to think about it yourself. You can just find someone else to help you."
"Who are you looking for? I don't think it's a good idea to look for the president again, "Gu Qing Shan said.
"Names, codenames, and titles are all things that belong to the Mystics, closely linked to a person's fate. You need to look for astrologers, they're experts in these matters" Crow explained.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes lit up.
"Crow, was your title given to you by an astrologer?"
"Yes."
"What's your title?"
"Dead Silver Crow."
"… Sounds good."
Crow put the glass down, stood up, and said: "Let's go, I'll take you to the most famous Astrologer in the city, I guarantee that he'll be able to solve this problem"
"Very well" Gu Qing Shan gladly agreed.
The two of them left the bar and walked along the street. Soon, they arrived at the central area of Void City.
"Wait, this place seems to be close to the City Lord's Mansion."
Gu Qing Shan pointed ahead.
In front of the two of them was a dark gray, majestic building. It looked a little stifling, but also solemn.
City Lord Residence.
— — the lord of Void City was a very mysterious person, only the upper echelons of the major forces knew of the lord's background.
Ordinary people only knew that there was a City Lord, but they could not inquire about any information related to the City Lord.
That was a taboo and would immediately draw the hostility of the entire Void City.
"The Clairvoyant we're looking for is in the City Lord's manor" Crow said.
"What?! Isn't that bad? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I might not be able to do anything else, but when it comes to divination, no one will stop me" Crow confidently said.
As they spoke, the two of them had already approached the City Lord's Mansion.
A group of fully armored knights galloped over and stopped in front of the two of them.
The leading knight asked, "Assassins, why have you come to the City Lord's Mansion?"
Crow said: "This friend of mine wants to come up with a codename, we're going to perform a divination"
The knight paused, gestured behind him, and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry.
"Enter from the second side door on the left. Someone will bring you to the divination room."
With that, he led the team of knights away.
Crow then brought Gu Qing Shan towards the City Lord's manor.
"The City Lord has an advisor who's an expert in divination. As long as you can afford it, he'll be more than happy to give you a codename" Crow replied.
Gu Qing Shan recalled that she had received a sum of money when she entered the city, and that she had received quite a lot of rewards for completing the mission. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I see. That's convenient."
Finally, he didn't have to think about a codename.
Speaking of which, professional matters should be left to the professionals. Wasn't he just asking for trouble by letting his imagination run wild?
After thinking it through, Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt enlightened.
When the two of them arrived at the side door, there was indeed a maidservant waiting for them.
"You two, don't wander around. I'll take you to the divination room." The maidservant bowed.
Gu Qing Shan and Crow both returned the gesture, saying: "Thank you"
The maidservant led the two of them to a secluded room.
"Lord Crow, may I ask if it was you who performed the divination, or this friend of yours?" The maid asked.
"He's my friend" Crow replied.
"Does he know the rules?" the maidservant asked.
"I didn't mention it in advance" Crow replied.
"Hm, that's right, nothing can be told to him in advance, this is the lord's rule" the maidservant said with satisfaction.
"Lord Crow, then please wait outside, your friend may enter" the maidservant said.
"Alright, I'll stand here for a bit" Crow casually said.
Gu Qing Shan was led inside by the maidservant.
"Please wait a moment, I'll inform the lord" the maidservant said.
"Hm, thank you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The maidservant bowed again, then slowly disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan looked around.
This room seemed to be specifically used for divination, as there was only a single square table at the center of the room, other than that, there was nothing else.
Gu Qing Shan stood still in front of the square table.
A few moments later, the maidservant appeared again.
She held a stack of paper and a pen in her hand, placed the paper on the table, and gave the pen to Gu Qing Shan.
"The lord said that we can begin" the maidservant said.
"What do I need to do now?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The maidservant gestured for him to look at the table, then disappeared into the void of space again.
Gu Qing Shan looked back, only to see a line of common human text appearing on the paper:
"What would you like to divine, your excellency?"
Gu Qing Shan answered without hesitation: "I want a codename that suits me, preferably one that can evolve into a Title in the future"
Another line of text appeared on the white paper:
[Your Title is actually determined by your actions, but a good codename will indeed allow you to gain the favor of living beings, the world, and the Laws of the world]
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
— — the other party's words were very reasonable.
"I'm an Hitman, I hope you'll consider this when choosing my codename, sorry for the trouble" Gu Qing Shan said.
Another line of text appeared on the white paper:
[Then let us begin]
[I want to ask you three things, you must answer me truthfully]
[First, is the thing you're best at and what you like to do the most the same thing? What is it?]
Gu Qing Shan answered without hesitation: "I like to cook, and I'm also quite good at it. My future dream is to open a restaurant by the sea"
The white paper fell silent.
I'm clearly a murderer, how did I become a chef?
After a while, new lines of text appeared on the white paper:
[Please hold the pen and write down a certain Title you've obtained in the past, if there isn't one, write 'None']
A pen appeared from the void of space and flew in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan held it in his hand.
This is a very simple matter — — -
He thought for a bit, then wrote down a Title:
[Shen Wei General]
This was the Title he obtained in the cultivation world.
Immediately, a new line of small words appeared under this title.
[I will use the power of Divination to calculate your new Title based on the three previous Titles you have, are you willing?]
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and decided that it didn't really matter.
He nodded: "Go ahead"
Ripples seemed to appear on the white paper, and gradually, a few names of different lengths appeared on the paper.
[Cherub of Condemnation]
[Big Tabby Cat]
[Orange Sovereign]
[Adept Dragon Slayer]
[Inheritor of the Thousand Dragons Ancestor]
The white paper fell silent again.
This time, the silence was a bit longer.
In another room, someone muttered in confusion: "[Adept Dragon Slayer] is understandable, but why is he the inheritor of the Dragon race?"
She continued to ramble on:
"Titles are actually very serious matters, why did the Laws allow him to have a Title like 'Big Tabby Cat'? And that 'Cherub', I really don't understand it "
Next to her, the maids were already covering their mouths, trying their best not to laugh out loud.
Gu Qing Shan was also a bit embarrassed, she didn't think it would be such a coincidence to draw three such Titles at once.
"Can you give me a new Title now?" he asked.
A few moments later.
New lines of text appeared on the white paper:
[One last question, what is your real name?]
Gu Qing Shan shook her head: "I'm sorry, I'm an evil creature, our real name is something we've never been willing to talk about"
All the text on the white paper disappeared, replaced by a new line of text:
[It was my lack of consideration, then let us change the question, what is your strongest fighting style — — - no need to be specific, just tell me what it is]
Gu Qing Shan answered without hesitation: "Dancing — — ah, I mean, sword dance"
The white paper fell silent.
What sword dance, you're talking about dancing, right?
Dance … dance …
A chef who knows how to dance, whose original Title was Big Tabby Cat, now wants me to calculate a new Title.
That's a bit hard …
A few walls away, the person sighed helplessly and rubbed her temples in annoyance.
The maids tried to persuade her: "If you think it's troublesome, we can kick that person out"
"No" she replied, "this is the kind of thing that's more challenging, I want to calculate it properly"
At another location.
Gu Qing Shan was waiting.
A few lines of text once again appeared on the white paper:
[Originally, I only needed to ask three questions, but there are too many uncertainties about your body, so I need you to cooperate with me, is that alright?]
Gu Qing Shan recalled the three questions she answered just now and felt that it was too difficult, so she happily replied: "No problem"
[Please place your hand on the white paper]
Gu Qing Shan placed her hand on it.
On the other side of the wall, the person also placed his hand on a piece of white paper, silently sensing it.
[Strange, his body is indeed that of an evil creature, but I feel like something isn't right]
[Unimaginable, the Law of Space-Time he carries isn't quite right, as if he came from another era]
[He is proficient in three types of power, Soul Origin, World Origin, and the Prayers of Living Beings. The first is Swordsmanship, the second is World Technique, but the Prayers of Living Beings are used to — — -]
The person abruptly pulled his hand back and swung his sleeve.
Instantly, all the maids disappeared, transported to another location.
There was no one around. The person suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling a wave of shock in his heart.
So the dance he was talking about was this kind of dance …
This is … unimaginable!
The person breathed heavily, then quickly wrote a line of text on the paper.
[I'll remember you, fiend]
She muttered.
At another location.
Gu Qing Shan stared at the white paper, only to see a line of text slowly appearing on it:
[Your Hitman codename has been calculated, it is: Dragon King of Atrocity Jail]
Gu Qing Shan froze.
"It's that simple?" He muttered to himself.
A line of glowing text suddenly appeared on the War God UI:
[You've obtained the complete Hitman codename: Dragon King of Atrocity Jail]
[There is no need to do anything unnecessary, as long as you do what you want to do, this codename will one day become your Title]
