Once there lived a king who loved to know his luck and fortune. Therefore, he used to invite local astrologers to his palace so that he could know about his luck and future.
One day, a famous and intelligent astrologer came to visit his kingdom. As soon as the king heard about the astrologer's arrival, he sent his men to bring him to the palace.
When the astrologer was brought before the king, the king said to him, "I'm eagerly waiting for you." "May I know how I can serve you, my lord?" the astrologer inquired. "I think you know that people are appreciating your knowledge of astrology ", the king replied. "I'm very fond of knowing my fortune. Immediately, the astrologer approached the king and asked him to extend his hand to the astrologer. Reading the palm of the king's left hand, the astrologer said something the king was not expecting to hear. "People like you should not deserve to exist", the king replied out of anger. "You deserve the highest punishment."
Before ordering his men to imprison the astrologer, a thought came to the king's mind, leading him to inquire the astrologer, "Can you predict how long you will live? With his ready wit, the intelligent astrologer replied, "I have to leave this world a couple of days before your death, my lord." The reply completely frightened the king. He instantly ordered the commander to expel the demon and never allow him to enter the kingdom again.
