His companions echoed his sentiment one by one: some nodded in agreement, some revealed an expression of anxiety and helplessness as if genuinely troubled by something.
However, the demon soldier did not completely relax his vigilance. He squinted his eyes, scrutinizing Elder Talon Skyler and his entourage carefully, as if searching for flaws, "From abroad? Then why are you at this secluded outpost? And why do you carry such a strong demon aura?"
A chill went through Elder Talon Skyler's heart, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew that now was not the time to show any flaw. Pretending to be relaxed, he smiled and said, "Brother, you are not aware. Although we come from abroad, our family clan has a deep connection with the Demon Race. As for why we are here, it is out of necessity. We had planned to rest here for the night and start our journey back to the city tomorrow. Please, brother, show us mercy and let us go."
