Living As the Villainess Queen

On the surface, it was the head of the Muen Family who demonstrated one’s godly power more often than Sang-je does so.
However, there was a good reason as to why the head of the Muen Family wasn’t worshiped as an equal to Sang-je as God’s vicegerent.
The reason being is that the head’s power wasn’t downright absolute.

The head’s ability to foresee widely varied depending on the people and the issue.
Occasionally, people would likely get turned away at the door or told only about whether they were having good or ill luck.
Even so, the prediction can sometimes be very precise, and it would literally blow everyone’s mind away whenever they come true.
As it happens, the predictions have never been wrong when it comes to one’s fate of life and death.

To cite an instance, once there was a man of importance who came to seek the Muens, most desperate to ask about the whereabouts of his lost child.
However, what the man was then told by the then head that his child had long since died.
The man was then directed to the place to look for his child’s body and ended up finding the child’s cold corpse.

No one came to doubt the ability of the head of Muen when more similar cases of such were resolved after that.

“It seemed like the Muens had also helped back when I was kidnapped twenty years ago.
Mother said there was a knight who came and assured them that it was only a matter of time before I was found as the Muens had offered to help in locating my whereabouts.
From that, mother had regarded that the rumor about the relation between the Muens and Sang-je must be true after all.”

“Is that so? That really is astonishing since Sang-je had never officially acknowledged his relation to the Muen family so far.” Said Kasser.

“I guess the Muens are more renowned than I imagined.”

“They truly are.”

“If so, how come their name is not so widely known to the public? I’ve heard that most people in the Holy City don’t even know about their existence.”

“It’s true that they truly are a renowned family.
However, their fame is strictly restricted to those who already know about their existence.
It wouldn’t be so wise to gossip about the Muens as one would have to risk having his or her name being removed from the list whom the head would grant an audience to.”

“So it’s basically, ‘Watch your tongue if you wish to see me’.
What a bold threat.” Said Eugene, her mouth in an “o” as Kasser continued,

“One must have a connection within the family to actually meet the head of the Muen in person.
Into the bargain, there’s a big sum to pay in advance, in exchange for the information.
Nevertheless, one would likely have to wait at least half a year after registering for appointment as there is always a long waiting list.”

“Have you ever seen the head of Muen in person before?”

“No.
The head of Muen never meets with a king.”
