Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2362

Unaware of the change occurring on Thalia's side, Benjamin felt all his strength drain away after witnessing the dispersal of the mystic lights of faith.

His figure vanished from the sky in an instant.

Since this wedding couldn't bring his wife back, there was no longer any need to continue holding on.

…

In the Demon District of Jamborough, Benjamin left everyone else behind and silently reappeared in a courtyard.

This was where he and Shannon had once lived together.

Originally two separate courtyards, the expanding crown of the maple tree had spread across both by half. The wall between the two courtyards had been taken down to allow the tree to grow freely.

Gazing at the gigantic maple tree standing quietly in the empty courtyard, Benjamin didn't seek anyone out. Instead, he slowly walked beneath the tree.

His golden light was completely drained, and slumber awaited him next. This was the place he'd chosen to sleep.

If Shannon could return one day, at least he could sense her presence immediately. By then, he would awaken as long as she called out to him, no matter how deep his consciousness had fallen.

Still, would she wake him up?

She'd returned her half of the Core Vein Stone, and his golden light was exhausted. What was left to connect them in this world?

He refused to fall into slumber because if he did, no one was left in this world to remember she'd ever existed.

If he were to wake up again, only to find that he'd forgotten her like everyone else, what would he do?

"Shannon… Shannon…"

Seated beneath the maple tree, Benjamin rested his forehead against its trunk and murmured her name over. It was only then that tears couldn't be held back from spilling.

He'd tried everything and still failed to bring her back.

"Shannon, tell me… What more can I do…"

Shannon…

His tears dripped onto the roots of the maple tree and were absorbed into the earth in a flash.
