At the camp, Lento's expression twisted with anger.
"ROOOAAAR!"
A furious roar erupted from his throat, startling several of his subordinates.
"How dare someone trespass into my territory!"
He clenched his fists, the gauntlets covering his hands clanking together.
"Move! Everyone, get inside! We're going to catch those intruders and make them pay for this!"
His subordinates immediately grabbed their equipment and weapons before rushing toward the temple entrance.
Iki adjusted the straps of his gear and followed behind Lento.
"Boss, there's no need to rush too much. Whoever those intruders are, they won't get far."
Lento glanced at him.
"What makes you so sure?"
Iki pointed toward the entrance.
"The temple is filled with complicated passages, strange puzzles, and traps. Even we've struggled to make progress despite spending several days here. Someone who just entered without any preparation will have an even harder time."
One of the other beastkin laughed.
