Part two: ruin

(From MC's perspective)

A few hours later,

I arrived at the base camp. Seeing that there is no one here. I realized everyone went to the ruin site. Shortly after, Ms Valerie arrived. 

Looking at me she said, "Let's go to the ruin site."

Hearing that, my eyes gleamed with surprise. I thought she would restrict me like Elder Compton. But it looks like she doesn't want any mishap to happen to me. 

Then I nodded in understanding. Anyway, I have to tell Elder Compton face to face that I don't need her protection. So far she has been hindering me. 

Then shaking my head, I followed her. Thinking about the ruins, my heart rose in excitement. This is the first time I'm going to see the actual ruin site. 

So far I have only seen some books and videos about the ruins. But most of them were censored. I don't know whether the information piled up online was true or not.
