Out of the Shadows: Tildaโs Brilliant Second Life
Chapter 451 The Psychicโs Vision
There are still so many mysteries in this worldโmaybe eighty percent of them remain unsolved.
Silva noticed the curiosity in Tildaโs eyes and gave a slight smile. "Seems like youโre not like most people. They laugh at my line of work, but you donโt."
Tilda asked, โDonโt let my looks fool you. I actually trust my sixth sense. I can tell youโre not an ordinary person. Iโm just curious, why were you staring at me?โ
โBecause out of all the people Iโve ever met in my career, youโre the most unusual,โ Silva said. She leaned in a little. โIt feels like there are two souls inside you. They look the same on the surface, but the fire burning inside them is different. The soul that rules your body now carries a heavy flame, almost like youโve lived through two lifetimes.โ
โWhat?โ Tildaโs heart skipped. She never imagined this psychic could see that much. In truth, Silva wasnโt wrong. Tilda had lived twice. She had been reborn, carrying not just her second life but also the weight of her firstโfar heavier than most could ever imagine.
Silva caught the surprise on her face and went on. โIn some ways, psychics are like geomancers back in your country. Iโm interested in the field. Iโve studied those arts for years, though I was never very talented. I can only read the basics. If the souls around you werenโt so obvious, I wouldnโt have dared speak this much. Forgive me if I offended you.โ
โThereโs no need for being so polite,โ Tilda replied. โItโs the modern age. Just call me Tilda.โ
Tilda felt a deep respect rising for the psychic. To see through her so clearly proved that Tildaโs intuition had been right. Silva was truly gifted. And Tildaโs instincts had never been wrongโwhen they appeared, they always hit the mark.
โSo, Silva, is there anything else you want to tell me?โ
โNo, nothing more. With such a strong soul, I doubt anything in this world can truly harm you again.โ She paused before adding, โThe real reason I came over to talk to you is simple. Out of everyone Iโve ever met, your soul burns the brightest. Itโs like a blazing fireโclear, firm, and without a trace of doubt. Itโs one of the most beautiful colors Iโve ever seen in a soul.โ
Hearing such a direct description, Tilda couldnโt help but feel a little stunned. โThanks for the compliment. If I had eyes like yours, Iโd really want to see what color a soul is.โ
So, my soul is clear, steady, and free from confusion now? Strangely, Tilda felt something sharp in her heart finally loosen. It fell away. She let it go.
Silva shook her head. โIf you truly had my ability, you wouldnโt envy it. Souls as beautiful as yours are rare. Most of them are ugly. In a world so full of greed, peopleโs souls are already cracked and corrupted.โ Silva let out a long, regretful sigh.
Tildaโs lips curved in a faint smile. โLeave me your number, Silva. I find you very interesting. If you donโt mind, of course,โ she said warmly. โWith such a beautiful soul, I trust your character completely.โ
They exchanged contact information.
Silva continued, her tone thoughtful. โItโs strange. For the movie Iโm consulting for, I found the actor playing the lead has a rare gift. They called him Cetherlandโs best actor. He had some rare gift, a potential beyond my reach. If he studied geomancy, faceโreading, or psychic knowledge, his achievements would be far beyond mine. But fate can be cruel. Heโs a firm believer in science. A realist who refuses to accept anything supernatural. Still, heโs at the top of the industry. Thatโs the irony.โ
Tildaโs brow tightened slightly. โCetherlandโs best actor?โ
โSilva, the lead actor of that movie, is his name Darell Jenson?โ
Silva froze. โHow did you know? Wait, your name is Tilda Jenson. Then Darell must be-โ
โHe and I were once family,โ Tilda said flatly. โThat bond is cut now. We have nothing left between us.โ Her voice carried no emotion. There was nothing to hide. Tilda had severed the ties. She had let it go.
โIโm sorry,โ Silva said softly.
โItโs not your fault. But I am curious about something. You said he has psychic talent?โ
โYes,โ Silva nodded. โAnd itโs far from ordinary. He has no idea. In the film, his character is a ghost hunter. To add realism, the studio brought me in as a consultant. Two weeks ago, he came to me with questions about psychic details. Thatโs when I noticed itโhis abilities are awakening. But they arenโt the same as mine.โ
Tilda leaned in slightly. โWhatโs different about them?โ
