inquired, “Has someone broached this topic with you previously?” Mr. Nielsen, making no attempt to

conceal it, nodded.

“This time, I placed my faith in his words and sought his assistance in examining our ancestral grave,”

he admisted, recognizing the gravity of the situation. “Of course, I knew I had to compensate the

geomancy master, so I inquired about the amount that he deemed suitable. Surprisingly, he decline any

monetary compensation. Instead, he expressed that he was aware of my passion for collecting

antiques, a shared interest of his as well.”

“He proposed an intriguing arrangement-if he assisted in resolving the ancestral grave issue, he

requested an antique as compensation. After careful consideration, I decided to bring him home to

select an antique as compensation,” Mr. Nielsen recounted, underscoring the significance of the

arrangement.

“Little did I anticipate, the antique he selected happened to be a cauldron, an heirloom that had been

handed down through generations in our family, requiring careful preservation,” Mr. Nielsen revealed,

recognizing the unexpected twist in the unfolding narrative.

“At that very moment, the thought of parting with it proved unbearable, and I found myself hesitating,”

Mr. Nielsen admitted, acknowledging the sentimental attachment to the cherished family heirloom

Mr. Nielsen paused, then continued, “He didn’t push me into a decision; instead, he advised me to take

my time and carefully consider the matter. He left me with his contact information, assuring me that I

could reach out if I chose to proceed, and encouraged me to give him a call.”

“But he atted one condition-using the cauldron as the designated compensation. Mr. Nielsen added.

Mr. Nielsen turned to Simone, stating, “My assistant reached out to me to advocate for a male

character’s supporting role on behalf of one of your company’s artists. I figured, given your remarkable

skills as a geomancy master, it would be worthwhile to engage in a conversation with you.

Having spent numerous years in the industry, he had witnessed myriad darker facets.

The seemingly coincidental arrival of the geomancy master left him skeptical, and he couldn’t fully

r brace the credibility of the situation.

Doubts lingered in his mind, harboring suspicions that the other party might harbor ulterior motives.

psed by Simone’s proficiency in geomancy and mystical arts showcased during her livestream, he

harbored a glimmer of hope. Consequently, he scheduled a meeting with her to delve into a discussion.

The meeting wouldn’t have materialized if Simone hadn’t reached out to his assistant first.

Following his wife’s unfortunate accident and subsequent hospitalization due to a broken leg, he

proactively reached out to the geomancy master.

If the master indeed proved effective in rectifying his family’s issues, he would find himself reluctantly

parting with the cherished ancestral cauldron as a token of appreciation.

Ultimately, deite the sentimental value of the family heirloom, he realized it paled in comparison to the

well-being an ives of his family members.

Nevertheless, he opted to proceed with the meeting with Simone.

Upon their meeting, before he even broached the topic, Simone astutely discerned the underlying issue

afflicting his family.

This decision brought him satisfaction, as he was relieved that he hadn’t canceled the appointment

over the phone and had chosen to rush over in person.

Listening intently, Simone furrowed her brows slightly and remarked, “The appearance of this master

does seem rather coincidental.”

“May I take a look at your cauldron?” She couldn’t shake the feeling that the master had orchestrated

everything with meticulous calculation.

There was an air of assurance as if he harbored the certainty that Mr. Nielsen had no alternative but to

turn to him for assistance.

In light of this, Simone’s curiosity about the cauldron intensified.

Mr. Nielsen agreed, saying, “Certainly, why don’t we head to my house now to inspect the cauldron?”

Urgency crept into his voice, fueled by the string of accidents that had befallen his family members.

In accordae with the master’s words, what had transpired so far was just the beginning

Failure promptly address the ancestral grave issue would leave his family members vulnerable to

ongoir danger, the geomancy master had warned.

Simon nodded and said, “Airight, let’s head to your house now. Mr. Crayson, are you joining us or

heading back to the studio?” Mr. Crayson, too, was intrigued by his manager’s prowess in geomancy.

Having only witnessed it during live streams, he was eager to see Simone’s genancy abilities in person.

He smiled and replied, “I’ll accompany you and have a look.”

Simone simply nodded, acknowledging his decision.

From within, he retrieved a wooden box and set it on the table.

This is the cauldron, Master Gray. Please inspect it; is it of any use for geomancy purposes?” Despite

its antiquity, the cauldron seemed to pale in comparison to many other valuables lining the shelves in

the collection room.

Pausing for a moment, she resumed, “Considering its ancestral significance to your family, this item

holds numerous advantages for your household.”

“It was crafted specifically by a geomancy master for your ancestors, utilizing the accumulated merits of

your family over generations.”

“Preserving it at home has the remarkable effect of fostering prosperity and safeguarding the

household. contributing to your family’s longstanding prosperity.”

“Based on the insights from the reading, without this cauldron, some of your family members might

have already faced dire consequences

“Therefore, my recommendation is to preserve and care for this item diligently, Simone advised,

emphasizing the invaluable role the ancient cauldron played in the well-being of his family.

Mr. Nielsen breathed a sigh of relief, somewhat surprised that Simone didn’t request the cauldron as a

reward.

He praised, “Master Gray, you are generous.”

“I’ve heard about your excellent reputation in the circle before, and today, I’ve witnessed it firsthand.”

According to Simone’s words, this cauldron incredibly valuable, a true treasure. There are likely not

many masters who can resist its temptation.

Simone shared a moment of agreement. “Contentment brings happiness, and my master believes in

taking only what is rightfully ours and not succumbing to the allure of others’ possessions.”

The sentiment resonated with Derrick, and he responded, “Wise words. Your master has imparted

valuable lessons.

character and teaching qualities.
