Following the elite guards, we soon started heading deeper into this place.
As for how we knew that we were heading deeper, it was because there was this downwards slope to this tunnel. This showed that we were heading deeper and deeper into the ground.
Wherever that relic was being held, it was clear that it was in a place that was considered to be the very core of this place.
Though it certainly was awkward to move in silence like this.
Since meeting the god's messenger, Klein and the royal guards had been silent.
It seemed that they had suspected the same thing and had been preparing just in case something happened. So they had their hands on their weapons the entire time as if they were ready to fight if there was a fight that broke out.
But the elite guards didn't do anything other than lead us forward.
I understood their suspicions since there were too many things that seemed off about this place.
Though I still hadn't found the biggest thing that mattered yet.
