Were there any new passengers or fellow travelers/people heading in the same direction in the near future?

Nope.

“How unfortunate this all is. It’s just like that time at my house. I could swear it wasn’t burning all night… Or did I just not notice? Or is he moving around the world wearing an invisibility cloak?”

Muttering to himself, he gets off the stagecoach and looks around to see where the detector is pointing.

Wandering around the area, using the detector as a guide, Asmidul discovers a small pentagram made of stones hidden behind one of the large rocks. The reaction, apparently, was triggered by it.

Are the stones like regular ones, do they not glow or float?

Yeah, perfectly ordinary.

"They've set up a demonic gathering here..." He picks up another stone from the road and throws it to disrupt the integrity of the pentagram. "You can never expect an adventurer who mines ordinary stones."

Picks up another stone from the road and throws it to disrupt the integrity of the pentagram.

Success!

...

Nothing happens.

"So, it seems that the only option left is to defend against dark magic, and I don't have any trump cards for that."

He moves closer and picks up one of the pentagram stones.

After picking up one of them, Asmidul realizes that it is just an ordinary stone.

If everyone in the realm of Asuguh could also teleport to the right place and at the right time at the first call of a higher power, then the black knight, despite all his might, would already be behind bars, repenting for his countless crimes against the people. "The Guild of Wonders. A request to inspect a cursed house, made by the owner of said house," Kamistella said haughtily, turning to the one who dared to approach the mushroom and mage killer. A tactical story about the siren Tanne from Nephiria was ready.

—So that's what you are, a stone...



Tossing the culprit in his hand, he kicks away the rest of the filth with his feet, watching to see if the detector will go crazy or continue to point at the now-empty spot of the pentagram.

Even after the Asmidian vandalism, the detector continues to react to the same location.

—If I wanted to hide something, I wouldn't build a marker here. However...

He carefully examines the area, using his digging skills if necessary.

Having tossed the culprit aside, he kicks away the remaining mess, watching to see if the detector will go haywire, or if it will continue to point to the empty space where the pentagram used to be.

A voice from behind: Why did you break my secret hiding place, you strangler?
