After exchanging feelings, it was time to get down to business.
Astrid put down the black tea in her hand and asked Elise to hand her the handkerchief she used to wrap items.
She then gently uncovered the silk cloth, revealing the dark brown dirt inside.
"Lady Charlotte, can you see what's wrong with it?"
As Astrid approached, Charlotte activated her elemental vision and carefully studied the soil.
After half a minute, she reached the same conclusion as before.
"There's no life and no death. It doesn't resemble soil where crops have been planted at all..."
If the professor of life from the academy were present, Charlotte would have liked to show it to him.
"And that's not all... There are no remnants of magic circle engravings either..."
This strange phenomenon was something even she, as an Arcanist, had never encountered before.
