Elion pressed himself against the wall and lowered his presence.
Two demons walked past the tunnel intersection ahead, speaking in harsh, guttural tones. He couldn't understand most of it since their use of the common language was crude at best.
But he somehow found parts of the language reach his ears as translated fragments of meaning through intent rather than language; Perhaps the trial or the system's handiwork.
They spoke of how lord and many of their brothers departed to go and slaughter the humans, which he was already aware of. What he found interesting was the mention of a sealed chamber, which they had been told to guard heavily.
His eyes narrowed with interest. That sounded relevant enough for him to feel the need to check it out, just in case it turned out to be what he was looking for.
He waited until the demons disappeared around the corner before slipping after them at a distance, just enough to follow the direction they came from.
