Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1301

The Jamboroughians reading through the comments felt a jolt in their hearts.

The phrase "purpose of mystic arts" reminded them of what Shannon had said. "Why did we study mystic arts in the first place?"

The mission of mystic masters was to uphold righteousness in the mortal realm, but what did it mean to uphold righteousness? Was it to slay demons and exorcise evil?

Not entirely. Righteousness in the mortal realm had always been about protecting humanity.

It was not just about stepping in when humans were tormented by demons or ghosts, but it was also about extending a helping hand whenever one faced challenges. It was about using mystic arts' best ability to provide a sense of stability for the people.

All the Jamboroughians present seemed to grasp a deeper understanding of their studies.

Someone was the first to stand, followed by more than half of the students rising to their feet. They bowed solemnly to Shannon, and this was a gesture reserved out of respect only for a lecturer.

Before this, they'd seen Shannon just as an exceptionally skilled student. Their feelings toward her were mostly a mix of curiosity, admiration, and envy. She was a remarkable peer.

But now, they looked at her with newfound reverence. Her spiritual heart was clearer and more profound than theirs.

Charlotte stood among the crowd. In contrast to the others, there was a hint of unspeakable emotion in her eyes.

When everyone settled their emotions, they realized the "lesson" was nearing its conclusion.

Snapping back to her senses, Charlotte collected herself and set aside her emotions. Then, she asked another question that'd been lingering in her mind.

"Ms. Jenson, how did you come up with this idea of designing such talismans and distributing them to various locations through the Special Security Agency in advance?"

The timing was so perfect that they started to wonder if Shannon had some kind of foresight.

Shannon told the truth. "The security paper figures were developed while I was in Seastone. Before rolling it out in Jamborough as a pilot project, I sold it to several private schools in Seastone."

On a tranquil lakeside path at Jamborough School of Mystic Arts, Shannon walked side by side with Benjamin. The golden rays of the setting sun cast dappled light over them.

Shannon turned to Benjamin and informed him of her plans to return to Seastone the next day. Then, she apologized, "I'm sorry, but our first official date might have to be postponed again.

"The person who secretly sent a tip to the police is in Seastone, and I plan to find them."

Though details in the tip were vague, the informant clearly knew about today's events, and this was no coincidence.

"I'm suspecting that the person who tipped them off might be a soul from an alternate world."

She'd learned that Thalia was in an alternate world, and her next step was to gather all the information she could about that world.

Then, she'd open the gateway to it.
