Investigation (2)

Since they were in carriages, it didn't take long for them to reach the area where the reports came from.

However, they weren't able to find anything from a preliminary glance.

This place was a clearing that was by the side of the road that was surrounded by forest. 

No matter how they looked at it, it didn't seem like this place would have what they were looking for.

After all, this place was filled with greenery and life.

The report had said that there were signs of rot on the plants in this area, but as far as I could see, it didn't seem like that was happening at all.

I had also been paying special attention to the system, waiting for a notification of a quest. After all, when it came to things like this, it would usually trigger side quests or even main quests.

But that didn't seem to be the case.

After a while, Ronnie suddenly asked, "You said that there was a ruin nearby? Why can't I find any traces of it?"
