Chapter 1061: Traces of Devil Worshippers

"Furthermore, you located the mutant's entrance location and pointed out a huge problem within our clan. And this was all done on your first day of visiting our clan. The amount of help we received from you cannot be quantified, Lord Leon. Please accept our bow of gratitude."

Shortly after Lord Rhuvek finished speaking, all the dark elves lowered their heads even further with their fist-palm gestures.

Leon had no choice but to accept their bows. It was clear that he wouldn't be able to persuade them otherwise unless he became more forceful with his words.

Nevertheless, Lord Rhuvek had reminded him of a very serious problem.

The Dark Elf Clan had traitors.

Whether their motives were related to a grudge against the clan or for some other reason for helping the mutants, Leon felt like they had something to do with the devil worshippers.

If so, that would mean that the devil worshippers had infiltrated the Dark Elf Clan for many years already.

Leon couldn't begin how many dark elves had become members of the devil-worshipping group over those years.

'I will have to be prudent when I visit other dark elf cities in the future. No, it's probably not just limited to the Dark Elf Clan. The devil worshippers must have infiltrated the dwarven clans as well,' Leon mused with furrowed brows.

He thought the devil worshippers were scheming something on the surface, but it seems that they have also been planning something in the Lower Abyss Domain.

However, he lacked information in regards to their motive.

"Is there a problem, Lord Leon? If it's bothering you that much, I suppose we should stop here," Lord Rhuvek scratched his ruefully.

"My apologies, Lord Rhuvek. I was thinking about another matter," Leon smiled wryly before suggesting, "We should head back to the city. There's something I would like to discuss with you."

"Right. Of course, Lord Leon," Lord Rhuvek agreed with a nod and said, "We haven't finished negotiating about our trade."

"Well, there's that too. But this is something more important; it's in regards to the potential traitors in your clan, Lord Rhuvek," Leon stated.

After Lord Rhuvek heard that, his expression turned solemn before nodding seriously.

"Alright. Let us head back to the city and talk. Everyone, prepare to return!"

"Yes, my Lord!"

Within a few short breaths, the dark elf platoon quickly packed all their tools and equipment into their interspatial rings.

"Everything is in order, my Lord. We are ready to move."

"Then, let us head back. We still report the completion of our mutant extermination mission, lest they send more people on a wasted trip."

"Yes, my Lord!"

Sometime later, the group left D Sector and returned to C Sector, where the secret entrance was. However, they didn't stay in C Sector for long before heading up to B Sector and passing A sector to return to the city.

Although Lord Rhuvek wanted to personally investigate the hole from where the mutants came from, he knew it was dangerous to embark on the unknown while being ill-prepared.

Such an important discovery concerned the entire clan. The main clan would send more experts to participate in the investigation.

"Open the gates!" Lord Rhuvek hollered outside of Howling Wind Gate.

The garrisons behind the two-layered gates quickly heard Lord Rhuvek's voice before their eyes widened with pleasant surprises. After they checked the time, they became even more surprised.

"Open the gates!" the garrisons passed the message before everyone at Howling Wind Gate worked together.

The enormous heavy gates slowly opened, and Leon passed through alongside Lord Rhuvek and the dark elf platoon walking several paces behind them.

At the same time, the fairies in the area quickly passed words of the city lord's return to the rest of the city. Everyone that caught the news was overjoyed and left their work to welcome back the city lord and city elites.

"We welcome back the city lord and city elites!" a warm welcome quickly greeted Lord Rhuvek's group as they entered the city and trekked down the main road.

The city lord's return could only signify the completion of their mutant-extermination mission. They wouldn't be returning otherwise.

Even though it was the third time within the week, the warm welcome did not diminish much. Returning alive from the mutant-extermination mission was something to be celebrated.

Nevertheless, the gathered crowd started to have some doubts when they saw Lord Rhuvek and the dark elf platoon return in good conditions.

According to their sources, the mutants were said to have headed for D Sector.

Given the danger of C Sector was already quite high, it was quite strange for the Lord Rhuvek and city elites to return without a single casualty—not that it was a bad thing.

"Did Lord Rhuvek abandon the mission?" a normal male dark elf doubted in a low voice.

"Idiot, don't say that! Do you want to lose your head? Do you think Lord Rhuvek is a coward? How could Lord Rhuvek abandon the mission?" another male dark elf immediately chided in a hushed tone.

As the crowd whispered amongst themselves, Lord Rhuvek noticed the situation as he was passing through the main street.

"Go and send the report to the main clan and neighboring cities. Also, someone else, go and recount the details of the trip to the people; let them know about Lord Leon's glorious feat. His tales should be shared."

After tossing out those words, Lord Rhuvek increased his pace and distance from the group before adding, "I will be returning to the palace to talk with Lord Leon. After carrying out my tasks, you can tend to your own matters."

"Understood, my Lord," the dark elf platoon complied.

…

Sometime later, Leon and Lord Rhuvek said in their respective seats within the grand hall. Elvish fruit wine was served once more, but Leon's share was quickly finished by Rainshine after it was offered.

"About the traitors in our clan, what did you want to say, Lord Leon?" Lord Rhuvek politely inquired with a serious look.
