Chapter 156 - 155. Something Sinister (5)
Rose showed me the piece of paper in her hand as she said.
"The teams on field saw some tracks and also spotted some suspicious activities going on. It wasn’t during the night but during the day when you weren’t in the area. This is the alleged location that I got my hands on, it’s not a solid information but-"
I snatched the slip of paper from her hand as soon as I heard what she said and looked at the name of the place and the approximate landmark of the location.
"I’ll go check." I announced.
"Wait, Master. But it isn’t a solid lead!" Rose shouted but I had already teleported closest to that location which was written in the slip.
It was not the solid lead but I still couldn’t ignore it and wait for it to be solid. If there were tracks then there might be something in that place which could prove to be helpful in rescuing those who needed my help.
I hovered over the forest mentioned in the slip and looked at the expanse of the woods by activating my Mana Eyes. But strangely enough, if was as if something was disfiguring my vision. It wasn’t supposed to be like that, there was nothing in the world that could defy Mana Eyes.
I suspected the presence of some devices that could hinder with mana and swooped down towards the location that was said to be the place where the people were taken.
It was a cave which was hidden in the woods, I walked through the forestfloor passing by the vegetation which seemed as if it was trimmed for the convenience of travelling.
Usually the paths which weren’t in use by the travellers were clear of overgrown vegetation but this particular path which led deeper into the forest was also well kept.
Another clarification that I might be on the right path. As I was walking ahead, I couldn’t help but feel as if something morbid lay ahead.
