He was trapped

Liam soon left their lovely company and returned to the woods, but he didn't go to the group. Instead, he ran in the opposite direction and found a quiet hidden place to settle down so he could investigate the thing he had gotten from the Pernes family.

He somewhat understood what it was. However, he also didn't understand the concept of the thing. He knew he had it but didn't understand where it was. Somehow he figured it was stored inside his body, but he also didn't understand how this was possible.

All of this made him scratch his head in embarrassment at his lack of knowledge. But this couldn't be helped either as even the people from this place didn't know of these things, and those who did know of them didn't know how to use them.

It was rather pointless to think about that, so Liam somehow summoned the object into his hand and just looked at it, trying to understand exactly what it was or was used for.
