"Could it be a divine-rank energy-gathering formation?" Henrietta spouted seriously.
Vaan and Astoria were left a little speechless. They thought Henrietta was joking, but judging by her expression; it didn't seem that way.
Although Vaan strongly felt a divine-rank energy-gathering formation wasn't the cause for the energy's disappearance, Henrietta must have some basis for her assumption.
It was at least worth hearing her out before refuting her.
"Why do you think that?" Vaan calmly asked with a hint of interest.
"You may not know this, but spirit energy is a kind of source energy that should be present wherever there is life. Even if it only exists in scarce amounts, it at least exists. However, this world doesn't have a trace of it. That's why there must be an unknown cause for its absence," Henrietta explained.
"I've recently learned about that," Vaan acknowledged with a nod.
