Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 953

Just as Shannon was about to step out, Roscus called after her. "Shannon."

She turned around to see Roscus narrowing his eyes at her. There was an underlying meaning behind his sharp voice as he warned, "And another thing for you… The ghastly plague will rise again. Beware."

Shannon's brow twitched as she suddenly recalled the words of the princess in the spiritual realm. Before the cursed bone dissolved, she'd said the exact same thing.

A ghastly plague from a thousand years ago? What was that?

Triston caught Roscus' parting words. He couldn't contain his curiosity as soon as they exited the room. "Shan, what's this ghastly plague?" He'd never even heard of it.

Shannon had no idea either. She recounted what she'd witnessed in the dreamscape of the spiritual realm about events from a millennium ago.

"I'm not sure if the so-called ghastly plague is what I saw, but since both the realm owner and Roscus mentioned it, we should definitely inform others."

Triston's expression grew grave as he nodded. "Understood. I'll handle it at once."

After leaving the National Security Agency, Shannon got into the back seat of the car and mentally reviewed her conversation with Roscus.

Based on Roscus' words and the system's earlier reaction, she figured the system's claim of being a deity wasn't exactly a lie.

But if it were truly a deity, why would it parasitize ordinary humans and steal their fortunes?
