"There was indeed some kind of magic placed on it, but..."
Carlotta carefully examined the parchment scroll Sylvie had taken out.
The sky had not yet darkened, so Eileen could not emerge from within her body.
That meant she was the only one present who could sense the magic on the parchment.
Of course...
Carlotta herself also had a strong desire to prove her worth.
She hoped to become a pillar of the team.
Rather than dead weight who needed everyone's protection at every turn.
For all those reasons, Carlotta focused with one hundred percent of her attention, trying to see through every detail of the parchment.
But...
"The magical power isn't very strong."
"It was probably only meant to preserve this parchment better."
Carlotta voiced her opinion.
Eileen had mentioned this to her before.
To keep their beloved possessions from being worn away by time, some mages would cast preservation magic on them.
That way, their cherished items could be kept for much longer.
If a mage maintained the spell again and again, even something from a thousand years ago could remain spotless.
Xu Fan also found Carlotta's analysis quite reasonable.
If the map drawn on this parchment was real, then it was certainly worth preserving.
But just then, Sylvie could not help cutting in.
"The magic on this parchment wasn't originally this weak."
"When I touched it for the first time, a stream of energy poured out of it and flowed into my body through my fingers."
"After that, I gained this ability."
As she spoke, Sylvie glanced at the tree stump in front of her.
Judging from these clues, Sylvie felt that the parchment might not be as simple as Carlotta thought.
Of course, she had no idea why Har the Seer had cast such magic upon
