Without a word spoken, Aiden landed right in the middle of the settlement, showing no fear whatsoever. Then he let Laela down afterward.
Behind them were about five demons with longer horns than the regular ones he'd killed earlier, and in front of them was Mazrath, the boss of this dungeon, with the longest horns of all.
Aiden didn't need to read a book to figure out that the level of strength of a demon could be determined by how long and curved their horns were.
Mazrath stood in front of the shed Aiden needed to reach to save Rakan and Ingrid.
The demon boss raised up his broadsword and balanced its flat surface on his shoulder with a taunting grin on his face.
The demons behind also had their weapons out and were tapping gently on their palms while grinning at the humans they thought were foolish to come to their home.
It looked like the mages were in a dire situation being surrounded like that, but then Laela said to Aiden, "Whatever your plan is, I trust it fully."
