Chapter 237 Prestigious

One day, as Simone was about to leave and change her shoes, she heard a knock on the door. She

stopped and opened it, only to see an old man with a kind face, accompanied by a man. with white hair

and a youthful appearance. She had seen both of them when she was a child.

“Hello, masters!” She gestured for them to come in. “Please come in and have a seat!” These were her

master’s comrades.

The old man, Magnus Hart, smiled and said, “You remember us.”

The white-haired man, Sage Caddel, smiled and nodded at her. “Mones.”

After they sat down, Simone went to brew two cups of tea and placed them in front of them. She asked,

“Do you guys have something to discuss with me?” She had not seen them in many years as they did

not usually interact much.

There had to be something important now that they showed up.

Sage took out a seal and handed it to her. “This is the seal that your master entrusted us temporarily

before he passed away. He instructed us to seek you and hand over the seal.”

Simone was stunned for a moment, then took the seal. It was the tool that her master had used for

many years, his identity seal.

Certified by the geomancy association, every master would carve a seal with their name, containing

their aura, and leave special marks on it. Then, it would be registered with the association and used as

a form of identification in the future.

She also had a seal that she carved herself. Feeling the familiar aura, Simone caressed the seal as her

eyes turned red. “Why did he entrust the seal to you guys for safekeeping and only hand it to me now?”

This was something she did not understand.

Sage replied, “Your master left something for you in the storage vault of the geomancy association.

Only this seal and the key in your hand can open it. He left something for your but calculated it wasn’t

time for you to receive it yet. We don’t know what exactly it is and why he chose to give it to you now.”

Simone held the seal, her eyes becoming even redder. “So, that’s why.” She missed her

master.

Sage saw her teary-eyed and longing expression and said, “Before your master passed away. he

instructed us to take care of you. But he also told us not to disturb you before handing over the seal.

Only then could we contact you. I’m the head of Cloudmist Observatory in Iriden. If you need anything,

feel free to contact me. Of course, you can drop by whenever you’re free”

Magnus added, “I’m the vice president of the geomancy association. If you’re interested in becoming a

geomancy master, you can come to me. We’ve seen your talent in geomancy and. mystical arts

displayed during the live broadcast. We believe that your master would be happy and relieved. He

entrusted us to take care of you, and we will do our best. Don’t be too formal with us.”

Simone was surprised and said, “Thank you for your care.”

That was the kindness of her master, and she would naturally not disappoint him. Moreover, there were

many things she needed to figure out. The identities of these two masters were not simple.

Although Cloudmist Observatory in Iriden was not the largest spiritual space in Cebros, it was the most

famous in the circle. The ability of a spiritual leader in geomancy mystical arts. was strong. Many

influential and wealthy people wanted him to help with physiognomy, but they had to wait in line with no

guarantee that he would help.

As for the vice president of the geomancy association, he was also a well-known figure in the circle.

She had never expected that these two masters had such identities. Her master had never mentioned

these things to her before.

Magnus smiled lovingly and said, “You’re our junior, so we must take care of you.” He then asked, “Do

you have any questions for us?”

Simone did have some questions. She looked at the two of them and asked straightforwardly, “Masters,

do you know how my master passed away?”

He replied, “Before he adopted you, he went to Newton and came back severely injured. We asked

him, but he didn’t tell us who did it. That injury originally affected his lifespan. A year before his death,

he performed a divination. We don’t know what he saw, but he used a secret. technique at the cost of

depleting his lifespan. As a result, he was rapidly aged by the backlash. of the heavenly path and

passed away shortly after.”

She was stunned and asked, “Do you know what secret technique it was?”

Before her master passed away, she was studying at Cebros. When she rushed back after hearing that

he was seriously ill, it was no wonder that he gave her the feeling of being. completely exhausted. It did

not seem like a normal process of aging and dying, but rather like the withering and decay after

overexertion.

So, it turned out that her master was affected by the backlash.

Sage sighed and said, “He didn’t tell us, but we speculate that he might’ve defied fate. Otherwise, even

with a severe injury, he wouldn’t have only lived for a little over ten years. Only a secret technique like

that would require the sacrifice of one’s final lifespan and vitality. He had a hint of sadness in his eyes.

“Yes, according to our observation of his aura, he should’ve been able to live for another ten or twenty

years before using the secret

technique.”

At that, Simone’s body stiffened, and she suddenly had the urge to burst into tears. She held back

because the two masters were still present. Could Master have changed my destiny?

She choked up a bit and asked, “Do you know who hurt him?”

Magnus replied, “We have some leads. We’ll let you know once we confirm.”

Sage looked at her and said, “Your master hopes the rest of your life will be happy and smooth. He

never intended for you to seek revenge for him. You don’t have to be fixated on this matter. We will take

care of it.”

She pursed her lips. “I understand, but I still want to know who did it.”

As for seeking revenge, of course, it had to be done.

“We will inform you once we find out.”

Simone nodded. “Okay, thank you, masters!”

Sage asked, “Is there anything else you want to ask?”

She pondered for a moment and replied, “No, I just need some time alone.”

She was hesitant to trust these two easily, as their previous encounter had been brief years. ago. They

were unaware of the secrets surrounding her master. Therefore, she had no inquiries and would have

to conduct her investigations.

Sage could sense that she was suppressing her emotions. “Alright, we won’t disturb you. Let’s

exchange contact information.”

then.

She nodded. “Okay!”

Modern geomancers kept up with the times and utilized messaging apps in addition to phone calls. She

then bid farewell to the two.

Just as they were about to depart, Magnus advised her, “You should retrieve the belongings your

master left at the geomancy association as soon as possible. Perhaps you will find some answers you

seek.”

Simone nodded. “Thank you for reminding me, master.”

The two departed, and as soon as she closed the door, she could no longer control her emotions. She

squatted, hugged her legs, and burst into tears.
