Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2375

"I want you to be my new host," the system demanded, and was rejected.

"I want to bind to that Stone Turtle emerald pendant!" Rejected.

"I want a new alligator snapping turtle body!" Still rejected.

Shannon was cold, ruthless, and as unsentimental as the Divine Power, so the system decided to give up trying.

But…

"Even if my current host body is a tortoise, I refuse to eat tortoise food!" So, Shannon had someone prepare new meals.

"Why does your infant spirit get freshly baked toast? I want it too! In fact, I want a specially customized toast!" So, Shannon had the chef make bite-sized pieces of toast for a tortoise.

"Why does your little fox have a playroom while I'm under surveillance?" So, it had its deluxe custom-designed semi-aquatic enclosure.

Later, it complained about its slow crawling speed and received a lightweight motorized mini skateboard. Now, it zipped around the Jensen residence as it wished.

Plus, it'd shown up in the Jensen family's group picture.

Once an evil spirit, its hardened consciousness was slowly "corrupted" by these everyday kindnesses, and it found itself thinking that perhaps being a tortoise wasn't too bad, after all.

To be exact, being Shannon's tortoise wasn't bad at all.

Yes, it'd once betrayed the Divine Power, but it'd never regretted it.

Shannon might not be as powerful as the Alternate Divine Power, but she'd done everything in her power for it.

She'd swapped it into the alligator snapping turtle body it'd always wanted and given it a name. It was the first name it'd ever had.

Slowly, it grew pleased to stay by her side, not because of a mission or because it had nowhere else to go, but simply because it wanted to.

Albany wasn't worried about Alex. It was mostly concerned that its tortoise little brother might be scared.

"We'll switch him back when we get home," Shannon promised.

She had business to handle in the alternate world and couldn't just pop back for Alex. One more day meant nothing since it was days overdue, especially when that person in question was Alex.

Shannon had no worries about delaying it a little longer.

Now that Albany had chosen not to stay behind, she had to find a new overseer. Relying on Fennec alone wouldn't work, and she needed someone else.

The only problem was, who would that be?

At that moment, Shannon had no idea that the person she needed would soon come knocking at her door.
