Night

The person that jumped out of the ground was Aru. And he was pulling the battered, barely alive body of the bodyguard by the leg while walking towards them.

"You should find a better bodyguard." Aru lifted the bodyguard off the ground, slammed him in front of Argen, and spoke. His voice contained a hint of frustration.

"Is there a way to detain him?" Finally, he asked and dropped the unconscious body on the ground.

Aru was suspicious of the bodyguard from the moment the battle began. And his suspicion was reaffirmed by the information he gained from the soul.

'There is a traitor amongst the people of the Silver Moon Merchant Union. And it is a human.'

Although the soul's words were vague, they made sense in the current context.

Without a traitor, how did the demons find the exact route the pangolin was being transported? How can they prepare a trap and even an underground tunnel?
