Chapter 142 Unano Island's Labyrinth
After contemplating for a long time, Nathan finally said, "Okay, let\'s check it out then."
Hearing that, Kenneth was the first to react.
He looked at Nathan with wide open eyes, and asked, "Did you honestly believe that Irish found a ruin?!"
But the one who answered him was not Nathan but James.
He patted him on his shoulder and said, "There might be a reason why he would believe such nonsensical sounding things to us."
He is only able to make this conclusion based on his observation of Nathan\'s temperament in the short amount of time they have known each other.
Of course Nathan is not just believing Irish without nothing to back it up like a stupid simp.
While he was contemplating earlier, he already stealthily used appraisal on Irish and fortunately got information as to how she \'discovered\' the said ruin.
[Name:Irish Santos
Profession: None
Physique: 2 (Tier 1) | Spirit: 2 (Tier 1)
Soul Talent: Saint (Dormant)
Attribute: Light
Skills: None
Status: Normal
Details: A blessed child of the prominent Santos Family that has been known for being a family of philanthropists, doing kind deeds all over the world. She\'s pampered by her family but was still able to grow up with discipline and respect to all creatures.]
….
In the details part of Irish appraisal, Nathan was able to learn that the information about this ruin she was saying she discovered was from her father.
It was gifted to her by her father for her birthday, who\'s hobby is to go into search for ruins all over the world and explore it.
The ruins Irish is talking about now is just one of the ruins discovered by her father with the help of people with magical profession.
Since people with magical profession is not something hidden in the elite society, of course they are being hired by the rich people to do things for them.
Knowing all this information, Nathan has decided to take a look at this ruin and see what it looks like.
Now to solve the doubt of the others in this information, Nathan turned his gaze at Irish and calmly said, "Tell us the real source of this information of the ruin."
Feeling the intense interrogating look Nathan is giving her, Irish persisted for a while before finally giving in and honestly telling the truth.
After the others learn that it was actually a gift from her father, the other finally nodded in understanding.
"It really is not a surprise if Uncle knows a ruin around here since he originated from around this place." James commented.
Him and Irish were childhood friends because of the close ties of their family on each other.
That is why he called Irish\'s Dad as Uncle.
They talked about a few more details and finally decided to go as Nathan said, explore the ancient ruins!
Before they proceeded, they first gather some supplies that they might need, some emergency kit, flashlight, etc. after that they were ready to go!
And so, their group of seven walked in the beach with Irish taking the lead, guiding them to the said ruins.
They paid a man who owns a boat and Irish asked him to drive them to Unano Island.
10 minutes later, the boat stopped on a seemingly uninhabited island with flashlights.
"Guys, be careful, okay? There\'s quite a lot of sharp stones around here." Warn Irish.
Clearly, she has been here before and from the familiarity she\'s showing, it\'s not just a one time visit.
So, Nathan can\'t help but ask, "Irish, how many times have you been to this island?"
"Around eight to ten. I\'m not really sure since I don\'t keep tabs every time I visit." She casually said.
With her guidance, they soon reached their destination.
It was a row of stairs heading downwards like it was the path towards an underground world.
"Is this it?" Kenneth asked, looking curiously at the flight of stairs but was able to see nothing but darkness.
"Since it was just discovered a month ago, this ruins have actually not been developed and only its outer layer that has been explored." Irish said.
Hearing that, a serious look appeared on James face and said, "Since that\'s the case, there might be some danger in going in this ruin."
Saying that, he faced the other members of the group and asked, "Are you guys sure that you want to enter this ruins?"
Hesitation started appearing on the face of some like Mary and Runa.
"This…"
Mary started getting fidgety, not knowing what she should do.
On one hand, she is scared of being left alone.
While on the other, she\'s scared of encountering a dangerous situation that James talked about.
Finally after giving them time to think for themselves, they still decided to follow the group.
And so, the group walked down the stairs while moving warily.
The pathways is not big, only allowing around 2 person to walk side by side.
Because of that, Nathan decided to walk at the very front as the vanguard in case something unexpected happen.
While traversing the stairs, no one said anything as they remained alert for any danger.
After 3 minutes, they arrived at the end of the stairs and what appeared in their sight is a labyrinth like those dungeons in games.
Here, the lighting is was not a problem as for some reason, the walls are able to emit light on their own!
"This place looks like a labyrinth." Said Kenneth.
At this time, they noticed a large stone just up ahead and from where they are standing, they were able to see that there seems to be scribbles on it.
Curious, Irish said, "Let\'s take a look what that is."
Without waiting for them, she already started moving forward.
The others also hurriedly followed her and soon they were able to see what is written in this stone.
Before they were even able to take a careful look at it, Runa suddenly broke away from the group and ran in front of the stone.
