511 Magic Spring Water and Divine Contract

...

"So familiar..."

"I must have been here before."

A murmur from little Ye Li resonated from behind Matthew, her eyes filled with curiosity and confusion, but utterly devoid of fear or hesitation.

The kid sure had guts.

Matthew thought to himself.

He quickly confirmed that he and Ye Li had both returned to their normal states.

However, somewhat worrisome was the fact

that they could not use magic or magical abilities in this place!

"Is spellcasting prohibited beyond the Door of Aether?"

Matthew speculated.

Following the guidance of the data bar,

his gaze swiftly passed over the Magic Fountain, the crown on the withered tree, and the ring on the tree stump.

However, what ultimately captured both of their attention was a shelf placed behind the tree stump—

The shelf appeared to be a simple workbench.

Its construction was very rough, and although it was assembled with mortise and join, many details revealed the maker's carelessness—

or perhaps a lack of skill?
