Chapter 131: A Door Without A Key

"Ohoho, indeed." The old man laughed, as he walked over to the stone door frame and rested his hand on one of the bricks.

"May I ask what brought your attention to this ruin in particular?" The man asked, he turned around and Merlin could see that the old man's gaze was filled with anticipation.

'This is it.' He thought to himself, a smile subconsciously formed on his face, even though he was still trying to hide it.

"What I first found interesting was that out of all the ruins I've seen in this city, this door frame seems to be in the best condition. It hasn't suffered the wear and tear caused by the elements like many of the other ruins." Merlin said, before making his way over to one of the bricks besides the door frame. "And yet this overgrowth and wear on the decorations around the freestanding door frame suggests that it's one of the oldest structures in the city."

The old man's smile formed into a wide grin, and after seeing this, Merlin continued.
