The moment that the commander said this, I immediately froze.
I didn't dare move a single inch out of fear that I had already been discovered.
The demon commander kept looking around with a confused look. From time to time, he would sniff the air like a dog, as if he was searching for something.
The other demons looked around and tried sniffing as well, but not a single one was able to find what the demon commander was looking for.
Finally, one of the demons suggested, "We are beside the treasury. Perhaps it's the smell of one of the treasures inside?"
The demon commander looked at the demon who spoke. The moment that the commander's gaze fell onto that demon, he immediately shrunk back and flinched. But after taking a deep breath, he turned back and met the commander's gaze.
After all, it wasn't as if he had done anything wrong.
After staring at this demon for a bit, the demon commander finally gave a nod as if he was agreeing to this.
