Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1746

With Hector's stance out in the open, Scott and Hank naturally had no objections. Afraid of not being enthusiastic enough, Scott expressed, "We're not afraid of chaos. We love chaos!"

He yanked Hank over, asking, "Right, Hank?"

Hank was speechless. "Oh, yeah. I also love… chaos."

The decision was made for the three of them to stay. However, given that Scott's demon cover-up had already worn off, he couldn't rejoin the crowd in the arena to watch the competition.

Shannon decided to have him stay alongside Xylon and other staff members of the Demon Control Agency. As for herself and Benjamin, they would continue to manage the two arenas, screening the demon students who might be tainted by putrefaction.

Before going in separate ways, she instructed Benjamin, "Give me your hand."

Her voice was utterly calm and devoid of signs of her earlier flare-up.

Although clueless about what she wanted to do, Benjamin obediently extended his hand to her. Her palm landed on his, and she slowly released her supernatural energy to detect the energy within his body.

He finally noticed what she was attempting but didn't stop her.

It wasn't until Shannon confirmed that the putrefaction didn't affect him, as he claimed, that she finally withdrew her hand. Without hesitation, she turned around and headed to Arena One with the others.

Benjamin stood and watched her leave. After some time, he turned on his heels and entered Arena Two.

Kai originally intended to stay with Kai, but his worry for Shannon prompted him to follow her. He looked at her, hesitant. "Are you alright, Shannon?"

She shifted his gaze to him, her expression calm. She knew what he meant and surprisingly said, "I'm fine. In fact, I've already had a plan in mind."

Ironically, Hector had been worried that Shannon might be suppressing her sadness, given how strangely calm she seemed after Benjamin's boundary-setting actions.

Now that he thought about it, he realized she was never one to bottle up her grievances. He became relieved at her well thought-out plan and burst into a smile.

"I think that might work."

"Are you guys listening to what you're saying?" Hank complained silently. "Striking your boyfriend because he doesn't love you anymore. Are all mystic couples this extreme?"

However, upon deeper thought, Shannon might not have acted so extreme if the person wasn't Benjamin.

"I suppose he's no longer an ordinary human and can endure a few strikes," he thought and couldn't help but lament about one other thing.
