Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1765

For nearly a hundred years, the oceanid clan had begun to slowly reconnect with the land thanks to the existence of the Demon Control Agency, but that was just barely.

Ondine was one of the most outstanding members among the younger generation, and he'd been firmly against leaving their homeland's waters from the start.

He figured that if they didn't find the root cause, there was no guarantee it wouldn't happen again even if they moved elsewhere. Migration was not an actual solution.

He insisted they should go ashore to seek help, but the older generation of the oceanid clan had suffered from humans in the past. They disapproved of the idea of asking humans for help.

Even after hearing rumors that the demon clans on land had grown close to humans, they refused to seek out humans.

In the past few days, the clan had been leaning toward migrating, so Ondine and Brinea made a secret decision to sneak ashore and seek help on their own.

By chance, they learned that young demons on land had also started experiencing similar afflictions and suspected a connection to the current ordeal in their homeland, so they set out for the Demon Control Agency.

As for Coralie, her condition was far worse, and the two hadn't planned to bring her along, but she wanted to see Verus.

First, if the clan ultimately decided to leave their waters, Verus had to know. Otherwise, if he returned and found his home gone, that'd be too pitiful.

Second, she was afraid she would die.

The clan had lost members to this illness, and she feared she wouldn't make it. She wanted to meet Verus one last time.

Verus' real name was Verius. Since that name sounded odd on land, and because Anton had told Verus that idols need a stage name, he changed it.

Yet, his new stage name wasn't much different either.

After listening to Ondine's explanation, Shannon and Benjamin's expressions turned grave.
