Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2169

Elowen sensed it too.

Even with half her divine soul nearly gone, she slowly opened her eyes and looked up at the sky once more, but said not a single word.

The smile blooming in her eyes now held the weight of a thousand unsaid words.

Lucan had died to protect Celestria without regrets, and she, too, felt no regret. All she wished was to leave behind the last trace of her divine soul and wait a thousand years for him to return.

Shannon stood still and gazed at Elowen nestled beside Lucan. Before the last of the Ten-Tailed Elythune's divine soul strength completely faded away, she stepped forward.

Walking toward Elowen, she removed the soul bell from her wrist and gently placed it in Elowen's fading hand. Elowen had asked her for it more than once, but she'd never agreed.

But now…

"You win. My soul bell's yours."

Elowen looked down at the soul bell in her hands. After a long pause, her lips curled into a soft, faint smile.

As a breeze swept through, the soul bell and her body shimmered into flecks of mystic light, scattering into the sky. The bell chimed clearly and familiarly.

Drawn by the sound, Lucan's true form dissolved into mystic light and followed.

…

It was done.

Celestria was scarred and shattered, but what could be done had been done. The rest would be up to Celestrians to mend on their own, and Shannon and Benjamin would no longer interfere.

Before returning the body to Benemir, the two took a moment to say goodbye to Trevaris and Velquin.

Velquin now looked like a six-year-old child. His round eyes were swollen, and his soft, chubby cheeks puffed up in aggrievance.

He whimpered, "You're leaving too?"

Lucan and Elowen were gone, and now, Shannon and Benjamin were leaving too.
