Evelyn Mercer had cultivated the path of detachment for a thousand years. To sever her mortal ties and complete her final trial, she descended into the human world and was reborn as the true daughter of the Mercer family. Once there, she did not vie for affection or status. She simply followed the will of heaven — to break her family bonds and reclaim the fortune that was rightfully hers. As fate would have it, the false daughter laid her traps, old acquaintances stepped in to protect their own, and the act of severing her ties brought its own backlash. Step by step, Evelyn settled each karmic debt. In the end, she cut herself free from the mortal world entirely — and returned to the eternal path she had walked for a thousand years.
