�But the fact that a tree grew means that there was water here. But that water completely dried in a week?�

There was no way that was the case.
Then there was only one answer.

�They brought over a dead tree from somewhere else?�
�Yes.�

The White Star was calm as he answered Sayeru�s question. The White Star looked around.

�Based on the condition of these trees, this place was created in the last few years. However, they created it to look like a city that was abandoned thousands of years ago.�
��Who did?�
�Why are you asking such an obvious question?�

Sayeru shut his mouth at the White Star�s brusque response. However, he soon started to speak again.

��This is a trap? A trap that Cale Henituse created?�

This large Underground City was Cale Henituse�s trap?
A trap to kill them?

Sayeru could not accept that.
There was a simple reason for it.

�This is not something that can be created in a short amount of time! You need at least a few hundred people, materials, and at least a couple of years to create such a large underground city!�

Sayeru started to frown the more he spoke.
They heard some footsteps at that moment. Both Sayeru and the White Star had noticed the footsteps.

Step. Step.

The person walking without hiding their presence was walking in a relaxed manner.
However, there was anger in Sayeru�s eyes as he looked toward the person.

�You bastard��!�
�How�s your arm?�

Cale who warmly asked that question had a relaxed smile on his face.
Cale, who walked toward them from the center of the underground city and not the entrance, looked peaceful.

Sayeru looked around Cale. He didn�t see anybody else. However, Sayeru believed that the others were hiding nearby.

�Why are you looking around like that?�

Cale�s question made Sayeru look back toward him. The two of them made eye contact. Sayeru suddenly felt his shoulder with the missing arm turn cold.
It was not from the pain of losing an arm. JrNovels.com
