Book 5: Chapter 187: Reflect
Fight? Three hours? Could it be that…
Ness glanced at Lady Erica, her face masked and her head bowed as if she had dozed off. A gleam sparkled in his eyes.
Lilith unfolded the map and studied it for a long time before pointing to what seemed like a lake at the center of it, marked by a rectangle for some unknown reason.
“What’s this?” she asked.
Ness glanced at it before clarifying, “It’s a lake at the center of this small world. The rectangle in the middle of it indicates a small island.”
“A perfectly rectangular island?”
Lilith scrutinized the markings of the other islands. They were all roughly depicted in shape except for this rectangle, which stood out starkly.
Ness shook his head, explaining, “It’s not that the island itself is rectangular. There are no rectangular islands in this world. However, there’s a mountain on the island that has a rectangular shape, so that’s why it’s marked as a rectangle.”
“A rectangular mountain? That’s interesting. This shall be the place then.” Lilith’s eyes lit up, nodding at the spot with interest.
