The warrior who had just stabbed Umonke was clearly from the Behemoth Clan. Rayna could tell he was quite an established warrior, one that was at least at the middle stage level of Qi, although on the lower side.
There was no one other than those that Rayna was already aware of among their allies, so why would a member suddenly betray one of their own, and one of the Pillars at that?
The man's hands were shaking, part of his sword covered in blood while his lips were quivering.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." he continued to mumble to himself. "I had to do it... I had to."
With one hand, the man reached up to the golden headband on his head.
'That's the artifact, the one that Anna brought with her... is that the reason he did that?'
