Chapter 283: The Temple Hallway

Grace waited until the last kobolds and goblins entered, with Eliza at their one pausing just before entering.

"See you in a bit," she whispered, her voice barely audible over the eerie silence, with a smile and a playful wink. 

Then, in a split second, she disappeared from view, leaving only the ancient temple in complete darkness with the haunting glow of the blood-red moon overhead.

Grace didn't respond, instead narrowing her eyes at the spot where Eliza had entered. 

She scanned their surroundings, her gaze darting left and right as she awaited assurance.

In less than a few minutes, two humans emerged behind them, quietly tasked with scouting the nearby area for traps while the goblins and kobolds continued to enter the temple.

''Any enemies?'' 

Turning around, Lucius asked, his tone cautious, but was met with a shake of their heads.
