Chapter 1726

Hector was aware that Shannon's current residence was within the Demon District. Although he knew he could access the area with Reuben's help, he sought another way, knowing he shared a subpar relationship with Thalia. When Kai heard about the purpose of his visit, he swallowed hard. "They're at school now." Benjamin and Shannon returned to school today to prepare for the internal selection competition. After what had happened last night, the atmosphere between them shifted slightly. He was the one who acted differently, while she proceeded with her tasks like any other regular day. Because of this, Benjamin had no choice but to tone down the awkwardness, pretending to be clueless. Therefore, on the surface, the two behaved as they always had. "The preliminary for the tournament will be finalized today. The competition will happen in two venues from tomorrow onwards, and we'll each manage an arena." As of then, Shannon and Benjamin were the only two who could detect putrefaction.
