As we advanced with our soldiers, the sense of victory from Seraphine's triumph still lingered in the air. The troops, both human and demon, moved with renewed confidence and purpose, their spirits buoyed by our recent success.
The path ahead seemed almost too easy, with little resistance from the enemy. It was quiet, unnervingly so, and a growing unease settled in my gut.
The landscape was a mix of dense forest and open fields, each step bringing us closer to the heart of the demon king's territory.
The silence was heavy, broken only by the sound of our footsteps and the occasional rustle of leaves in the wind. Despite the calm, I couldn't shake the feeling that we were being watched.
"Stay alert," I whispered to Seraphine, who was walking beside me. "This feels off."
She nodded, her eyes scanning our surroundings. "Agreed. This is too easy."
