All Chapters of Destiny Swap Ritual: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Upon returning to my dormitory, I sat at the table and looked in my mirror.A pale and colorless face with sunken cheeks and bulging eyeballs reflected at me. There was a grim aura around me, and it looked like I was on the verge of death.I may not be a divine beauty by any means, but I was blessed with vibrant eyes and defined features, often praised for my fair skin tone as well. My skin was usually supple and glowed, nothing like my current dull and coarse skin tone.Job remarked that something evil had been done to me, swapping my fate with the other person. With that, I was left with nothing, which was how I ended up in such a miserable situation. He made sure to give me an amulet for protection before I left.I looked around the dormitory. All privacy curtains in the other bunk beds were shut other than mine.My best friend, Sybille Mather, was the only one who checked up on me when I came back. The rest remained cooped up in their bed, not speaking to me.I had al

Helena rolled her eyes at me.“The student council came and told us to submit our homework. They sent me here to get you to finish our work before our group gets penalized for late submission. Did you think I’d come asking you to turn on your computer otherwise?”All four of us were in a group for schoolwork and would routinely help each other submit our schoolwork.This was all so sudden, but I figured what she was saying made sense.Upon snapping out of my grogginess, I suddenly remembered that my messages were synced onto my desktop. Also, I had my conversation with Sybille pinned to the top, which meant Helena could easily find what I had said to Sybille!Just as I expected, her expression dropped before I had time to scramble out of bed to stop her.She shot a look at me. “I knew it. You have been badmouthing me with your best friend, haven’t you?”I confronted her directly instead of cowering from guilt.“I know whoever put that hex on me is in our dormitory. You’ve alway

The pencil shook and dropped on the table, and then it started spinning. It paused briefly in front of Helena before turning to point at Anette.I was just about to speak when the pencil started to move again.This time, it pointed at Sybille.…Out of nowhere, Anette dropped to her knees.“I’m sorry, Geneva. I was the one who stole your gold necklace!”“At the time, my father broke his leg and the construction company he worked for was withholding his salary. We didn’t have any source of income, so I got desperate and stole your necklace so I could pawn it off for cash!“In the end, I couldn’t get over my guilt and never committed to it. I kept it hidden the entire time and have been hoping for the right time to give it back to you.”Before I could respond, the pencil moved again to scribble something on the paper. It wrote the word ‘karma’ before the candles suddenly went out.I felt what seemed like a cold gust of wind blow past me and shuddered.What was strange was that

“Geneva, I’ve always thought of you as my best friend, too.“However, I never told you that my mother was diagnosed with late-stage bone cancer last year. A relative who’s a doctor said my mother’s condition was incurable because it was not a form of primary tumor. It is a symptom of cancer cells from other parts of the body metastasizing into her bones, and the only way my mother could prolong her life was with amputation.“During that period, my father ended up spending all of our family savings, but it wasn’t much help, either. I remember my mother would cry and howl in pain in the hospital ward every night and how much it hurt me to hear her cry.“We saw so many doctors who use all kinds of medicine. In the end, my father could not bear to see my mother suffer and ended up going to a clairvoyant.“The clairvoyant told him that my mother was plagued with misfortune and was destined to die a harrowing death. The only way for her to turn things around was to swap her destiny with

In the year I was born, there was a terrible global economic crisis.My father’s stock profile plummeted, and he lost all his money. The company was on the verge of bankruptcy.Around that time, I caught a terrible fever that left me paralyzed in bed. I was sent to the hospital, where I was diagnosed with a severe case of leukemia.To make money for my treatment, my father took his friend’s advice and went off to Toulouse.When he returned, it was as if he was another person. No longer was he always exhausted. He became full of life and energy, even wearing a Rolex watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.He returned with countless brand-name bags for my mother and a medical expert from Toulouse for me.I recovered after that, and from then on, things continued to improve for our family.After that, my dad had turned from an atheist to a devout businessman who kept statues of idols at home.I knew the reason he kept them around was not to receive blessings and wealth, bu
