Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1155

Shannon's words immediately drew the attention of Team Northgate.

Baxter looked at Shannon. After a pause, he nodded. "It does."

Then, he added, "But the decision of how you'd deal with the evil spirits is entirely up to you. The school will not interfere."

A subtle expression flashed across Shannon's eyes, but she quickly nodded.

Once the rules of the match were clarified, Shannon's team got ready to depart. But just as they were about to leave, they were blocked by the mini demons from Team Demon.

"We'd like to join your team." Team Demon was allowed to assist one of the teams with a ghost bottle like what Baxter had said.

Though Mike and the others knew that, they were visibly displeased. "You guys tried to snatch our ghost bottles yesterday. Why should we take you with us?"

Steen stepped forward and puffed angrily. "That's because you harmed an endangered species! That stench-infused talisman you used the other day ruined my sense of smell! I haven't been able to smell anything for two days!"

Shannon had indeed caused the incident though it hadn't resulted in direct harm. If they made a fuss and reported it to the National Security Agency, Shannon could very well receive a verbal warning.

Mike crossed his hands on his hips and was ready to argue when Shannon said, "Just let them follow us."

She was curious to find out why this group of mini demons and Cornelius kept fixating on her time and again.

…

"Could you pick us up? We're heading to Southview."

Lexie smiled cheerfully and reminded Mike, "Why bother using talismans when we can just take the car?"

Mike was utterly speechless. He'd grown so used to being poor that he'd forgotten they had a driver and a luxury car at their disposal. It seemed he had to get used to living like a rich man.

Elliot, who'd been quiet this whole time, watched the mini demons disappear into the distance at full speed. A rare hint of worry appeared on his face.

"Are they just gonna… run all the way there?" That was exhausting.

Shannon thought about it and replied, "Juvenile demons have plenty of energy. They'll be fine."
