After the disappearance of the huge fountain spirit - the giant mermaid, the withered spring beneath the floor seemed even more dilapidated - it used to look at least remarkable on the outside, but now it had turned into a pitch-black wasteland, like a trash heap.
It was completely ruined.
Ivita reached out and grasped the floating seed. The Hearthstone Witch was utterly amazed.
Because it was the Seed of Law.
Not the kind from a remote corner of Volcano Island.
But the Seed of Law of a vast island nation.
This was the closest she had ever come to ruling the world. Seeing that dreamlike seed, she even had the illusion of wanting to reach out and snatch it, but she gave up the foolish idea after taking a look at Ivita.
The Hearthstone Witch, unable to suppress her thoughts, said to Ivita, "Your Majesty, I'll go upstairs first to unravel the magic ceremony of the Doomsday Stone."
"So you'll only need to come up and get the Doomsday Stone."
Ivita nodded.
