Of the Internet stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy. The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 2142. Let's read the author's Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy Internet story right here.

Although Benjamin had issued the royal edict to bring Shannon into the palace as his betrothed, he had never truly intended to hold the coronation.

For one, he was not the real King. For another, he had no desire to marry Shannon, who was also living under a borrowed identity.

It wouldn't be real.

What neither he nor Shannon had wished for was never to wed in this timeline. However, the present circumstances left them little to no choice.

Given that the courtiers had insisted Shannon wasn't the Queen without a formal coronation and therefore could be offered as the Goddess in an atonement rite, Benjamin thought he should one-up them and simply make her the Queen now.

"The calamity in Northreach is grave. Now is no time for lavish ceremonies. But since the Royal Advisor's words have spread through the capital, I must offer the northern people an answer."

He told the gathered courtiers, "Thus, I have decided that the coronation shall proceed—but in the simplest form. All funds saved from the palace will be redirected toward disaster relief in Northreach.

"In addition, I hereby declare a general pardon across the realm, and three years' tax remission for the people of Northreach. Once the coronation is complete, the Queen and I shall ascend once more to the altar to offer solemn atonement.

"May the sky witness our sincerity."

When Benjamin's decree was issued, the courtiers immediately fell silent.

They couldn't criticize the King, for he had been willing to sacrifice the Queen's dignity for the relief of the Northreach disaster, by keeping the ceremony simple.

They couldn't accuse him of ignoring the divine will either, for the first thing he planned to do after the coronation was to go to the altar with the Queen to offer their atonement to the sky.

Though this atonement was different from what the Royal Advisor had spoken of, the Queen would still perform the rite.

Even if the people of Northreach found out, they couldn't cling to the Royal Advisor's words and accuse the King of ignoring their lives for the sake of one person.
