Daniel quickly dismissed his initial theory.
This spell beast was using earth magic, not water. Had he come to the wrong place? But then another thought crossed his mind. If this spell beast was similar to a worm and lived underground, then perhaps the entire area had been reshaped by its movement.
The ground might have been churned up multiple times.
With that in mind, Daniel let out a surge of mana, and an idea of a spell he had once studied came to him:
"Rewind!"
Using the Rewind spell, he could view the past events here, like watching a movie from a third-person perspective.
The surroundings began to rewind, with the soil churning as he had suspected.
This spell beast had indeed been altering the ground.
Soon, bloodstains appeared in the area, and Daniel paused the rewind, watching intently.
He could see the Dewcrystal growing in its spot, but there was no sign of any water-element spell beast.
