“Then what is with these stones, are they also Magic Stones?”
Thunder cautious and soleht stones and held it within his hands, but even after taking it out of the hole, the light the stone released didn’t weaken to the slightest amount
“I don’t know,” Tilly shook her head “These stones may have been here for hundreds of years – in case the ruins have such a long history Previously they were all hidden behind a slate, therefore not visible to our eyes And if you want to start the unique mechanism, you can only accomplish it with a witch’s ability”
“Wasn’t it you who lit theht up?”
“No, the ability to light up corabbed another piece of the ic stones and held it in front of her eyes, the pure white light then caressed her beautiful face, “In case they were a device which required ic in the same way that the flame cannot easily leave the candle Fro these stones, there is nothing special about the holes in the wall
