Not the Novel World
97. Ritual Venue

After closing the secret room back in the cave, Seint and the others decided to go back to meet the residents. As they appeared at the mouth of the cave, the villagers rushed towards Seint, Lilian, Artem and Citto.

"Is His Majesty alright?" Ask Mr. Asadel worried.

Seint nodded slowly. "We're fine." Flat talk.

"There are no strange things in the cave ... There are only a few relics of the ancients, you should regularly take care of this place and do not let people from outside this area enter the cave." Artem.

Lord Asadel and the other residents frowned confusedly. "Why Sir?"

Artem stared at Seint who nodded his head slowly. "In there are some historical items ... Although it does not have an expensive sale value, but the objects have traces of relics of the past. From now on your job is to look after and clean up this place. If anyone wants to visit this place it's okay but don't let them go too deep." Evidently.

All the residents nodded their heads. "Good Mr ... From now on we'll keep this place clean." Said Mr. Asadel.

"All right then ... We better go to the next place!" Firm Seint.

After gazing for a long time at the mouth of the Cave, Seint finally returned to ride his horse with Lilian who smothered Citto tightly in his arms.

°°°

The next place Seint and the others would visit was the place where the last time the dragon summoning ritual was held.

Previously Seint and Artem had visited the place after the hunting event was completed. After the hunt, King Thanos ordered Seint directly to head west to make sure the ritual would no longer be performed.

When he first set foot in that place, Lilian frowned confusedly at the condition of the place.

"What's wrong with this place?" Lilian asked in astonishment as she circulated her gaze in all directions.

"On the same day that the tiger attacked you, this place was surrounded by the Palace because there were some irresponsible people who had performed the dragon summoning ritual." Answer Seint.

Lilian nodded. "Have the perpetrators been caught?" Ask.

"We arrested some people who had participated in the ritual but until now those people were unable to provide information for us." Seint.

Lilian frowned. "Why?"

"Because those people are still breathing but they can't answer or respond to our questions. It seems they are still under the influence of magic." Seint is serious.

"Magic? in this world is still magic?" Lilian asked curiously.

"Yes. Didn't the book explain witches? Although it does not appear to exist but we believe in its existence." Obviously Artem suddenly.

Lilian scratched her head slowly. "The world is getting weird .. Is there anything that always appears, is there not a world that is much more normal and acceptable common sense?" Lilian did not think.

"What kind of world is it?" Ask Seint flatly.

"A world without magic and other mystical things. In my world there are no such things, people will use their own abilities to become important people." Lilian.

"Mastering magic also includes abilities." Say Seint flat.

"Just keep the magic it is something that makes no sense ... Ah, we better find something that can give us a clue." Clearly Lilian then walked around the place.

Not much different from what Lilian did, everyone who came with them to the place also helped find something to guide.

After quite a long walk around, Lilian finally decided to sit on one of the large stones. He felt tired because he had been wandering around and found nothing.

After feeling enough to rest, Lilian went back to looking for something she could guide. While being seriously searching, Citto suddenly overreacted and bit Lilian's long dress.

"What's the Citto?" Ask Lilian.

"You found something? Where's?" Ask Lilian streak.

Citto just bit Lilian's long dress headed somewhere. Seeing the Citto biting on Lilian's dress, Seint and the other residents followed where Citto was taking her.

Citto continued to bite Lilian dress to a place that is overgrown by many pandan leaves that are several meters high.

Lilian frowned confusedly and approached the plant. After several checks, Lilian finally looked seriously at Citto.

"You want me to find this place?" Lilian asked who was nodded by Citto.

Seint came along with the others and walked closer towards Lilian.

"What's wrong?" Ask Seint.

Lilian pointed to the pandan plant. "Citto wants me to find this place." Reply Lilian.

Seint stared at Citto for a bit and looked back at Lilian again. "What's wrong with this place? Is there anything we can make a clue?" Ask.

"Adding to the wealth of this kingdom exactly." Said Lilian who made everyone surprised.

"I mean Your Majesty?" Artem asked curiously.

"Take this plant." Point Lilian on pandan plants. "I know this plant as a marker where the location of abundant natural wealth if seen from far away this plant grows." Lilian.

"This plant is pandan ... This plant we meet a lot in many places." Seint.

Lilian nodded slowly. "Plants like this are indeed many we meet in many places. But pandan plants have several types, for example like pandan plants this type grows not just any place." Evidently.

"I still don't understand Your Majesty." Artem was confused.

"This plant will only grow in an arid place ... It looks simple but actually this plant keeps things big." Lilian.

"What thing?" Artem asked curiously.

Lilian sighed softly. "We'll find out after we confirm it. I only read a short about this plant but have never seen it in person. To prove my reading correct then just get rid of some of those plants and dig right under the roots." Lilian.

"But Your Majesty this plant has creeping roots. We're gonna have trouble digging it." Said one of the residents.

"Because something valuable is obtained in a way that is not easy." Lilian.

Hearing Lilian's words, the inhabitants finally carried out Lilian's previous orders.

After some residents managed to get rid of tanama pandan. Other residents began to dig up the land that had been overgrown by pandan plants.

The residents found some obstacles while digging the plant. In addition to not having equipment and using makeshift tools, the residents also had trouble digging the land because the land has a lot of large stones.

After digging a fairly deep soil, Lilian began to give directions again to the residents.

"Take the stone out of the ground and break it into two or more pieces. It's up ... the most important thing is that the stone broke!!" Lilian.

After removing the stone, the residents began to hit the rock and hit it several times. After the stone broke into pieces, everyone in the place including Lilian herself rounded her perfect eyes.

"Ringstone!" Scream everyone.
