Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 176 Separated

The only thing that I could do now was follow this passage to the end and see where it took me.

After all, I had no idea what kind of things were in this place and what was waiting for me ahead, so it was better to follow the path that I was already going.

Those two demons who had just passed me were talking about the elves.

They should have a reason for doing so, so I should be able to find something ahead of me.

After walking for a few more minutes, I finally reached the end of this passage.

At this point, I moved even slower and made sure that there was no one coming into this passage. It was only then that I peeked my head out of the passage to see what was in front of me.

What I saw surprised me.

There was a large clearing that was right ahead of this passage.

It was the end of the tunnel and outside was a large clearing that had some kind of camp in it. There was a large bonfire and around it were a bunch of demons that were eating something.

I couldn't tell what exactly they were eating, but the red colour of the thing that they were eating made it clear that I didn't want to know…

I was also able to see that there were a few cages that were scattered around the clearing.

These cages had been separated so that there weren't too many prisoners in them at the same time.

When I looked more closely at the prisoners in the cage, I found that they had sharp ears and fair skin. It was pretty safe to assume that these were the elves who had been caught along with us.

Since the cave entrance was at the very back of this clearing, I was quite far away from the cages.

If I wanted to see who the ones being kept in the cages were, I would have to get closer. But to do that, it meant I would have to cross this camp that was currently filled with demons.

No matter how one looked at it, that was a suicide mission.

But with this Detection Ward…I might have a chance.

I didn't take this risk right away and slowly moved out from the cave entrance.

There were a few demons that were hanging around the entrance of the cave, so I had to carefully make my way around them. Since I was out of the cave, there were things that I could use to my advantage.

There were bushes, trees, and piles of things that the demons had placed that I could use to sneak around.

Not to mention, there was the Detection Ward that was currently working to block me from their views.

It took me no time to make my way over to the cages.

During this time, I got a better look of the camp itself.

There were several dozen demons that were here feasting around the bonfire and it seemed that what they were feasting on was just a deer that they had caught and roasted. I really let out a sigh of relief when I saw that since I had thought that the thing that they were eating…was something else.

While I was making my way over, I had also heard a few things from the demons, but there wasn't any important information. All of it was mainly them just chatting with each other while eating.

At the same time, I also wasn't able to find any demons that looked different from the rest. It seemed that the lord commander and his subordinates that they had talked about weren't here.

When I finally made my way over to the cage, I found that…the ones that were inside were Apollo and his warriors.

There wasn't a trace of Moon and her hunters here.

For some reason, the elves had also been split up by the demons and put in separate places.

But the ones that were kept here were most likely the ones that would be sacrificed. After all, this was where most of the demons were currently gathered and even had a bonfire set up.

So that meant that it was very unlikely that the traitor was among these elves.

If the traitor had made a deal with the demons, then they would naturally bargain for their safety.

They wouldn't be put in the most dangerous place like Apollo and his warriors.

So could it be that the traitors were actually with Moon's group of hunters?

Or could it be that…

No, I shouldn't be thinking that kind of stuff.

I immediately stopped my mind from wandering around too much and focused on the situation at hand.

since that would just hurt our group.

Without any concrete proof, I wouldn't let myself suspect anyone since that would just hurt our group.

Until we escaped, I had to trust the people that I would be escaping with.

So the first thing that I had to do was go and find Moon's group as well.

I didn't bother contacting Apollo's group at all since I knew that there was nothing that I could do for them.

It definitely wasn't because I didn't want to deal with Apollo right now or anything…

After making my way back over, I found that there was another cave entrance near the one that I had come out of.

It had been hidden behind some demons earlier when I came out of the cave, so I hadn't seen it.

Since it was another cave, then that most likely was where they were keeping Moon and the others.

I need to find them first before planning everything.

I knew that I had some time to work with since the demons had said that we shouldn't have woken up until tomorrow because of the drug that they used. That meant that they shouldn't be doing anything until tomorrow since demons were cruel like that.

They would want us awake as they sacrificed us.

But that also meant that I couldn't take too long.

So without any further hesitation, I went into the other cave entrance.
