Chapter 179 Keys
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.
He didn't even bother saying anything to the demon as he turned around.
When I saw this, I couldn't help letting out a silent sigh of relief.
I had thought that I had been discovered, but it seemed like that wasn't the case. However, this did show that the items that I received from the system weren't invincible.
They might be powerful, but there were also plenty of other powerful people in this world.
I had to keep the mentality that there could be all kinds of possibilities in this world and that I wouldn't be able to predict everything. I would have to keep that cautious mentality that I had in the beginning.
In fact, when I looked back on it, I had to admit that I was getting a bit reckless, especially with what happened in Alandal City…
The demon commander started walking again, but he didn't go to the other passage.
Instead, he walked over to the bars in the center of the room and looked at the gate in front of him. After looking at it for a bit, he looked around as if he was looking for something before saying, "Where are the guards?"
All of the demons revealed an awkward look when they heard this.
They all looked at each other, as if they wanted anyone other than themselves to respond to the demon commander. But in the end, not a single one of them was willing to speak.

So the demon commander picked one of them and asked, "I said, where are the guards?"
This time, his voice was a bit deeper and more threatening.
When the demon heard this, he knew that he had no choice. He was stuck with the short end of the stick, so he had to say something.
Taking a deep breath, the demon said in a stuttering voice, "They…
they should be outside at the banquet."
The demon commander narrowed his eyes the moment that he heard this.
When he did, the demon felt like he had been frozen in a block of ice.
But it wasn't as if he could do anything right now…
So he quickly said, "I'll…I'll go get them! I'll be sure to punish them properly!"
But then to all of their surprises, the demon commander waved his hand and said, "It's fine."
All of the demons couldn't stop their chins from dropping when they heard this.
Their fierce and cruel commander was actually allowing the guards to slack off?
Was this the commander that they knew and feared?
However, the commander didn't say anything to justify this which left them even more puzzled.
Instead, the commander said, "Where are the spare keys?"
The demons took a few seconds to react before one of them quickly ran over to one of the stalagmites on the side.
He pressed on the tip and there was a secret compartment that was revealed.
I couldn't see what was inside of that secret compartment at first because of my position, but I saw it clearly when he pulled out the thing that was inside.
It was a key.
When I saw it, the expression on my face turned bitter.
I had thought that the demons wouldn't be foolish enough to leave a key near the door, but it seemed that this wasn't the case.
But then again, this key was hidden by a special mechanism in the knew about the special mechanism and the fact that the key was inside of it, it wasn't as if they would find it that easily.
stalagmite, so it can't be said that it was out in the open. Unless one knew about the special mechanism and the fact that the key was inside of it, it wasn't as if they would find it that easily.
Still…the fact that this key was hidden here…was kind of dumb.
The demon brought the key over to the commander and presented it to the commander with both hands.
The commander just took the key without any fuss and used it to open up the gate.
The demons were about to go in with the commander, but he just lifted his hand to stop them.
Then he walked in alone and picked up something random off the pile.
It didn't seem like it was anything special, it just looked like a normal dagger.
When I looked at it closely, it even seemed like the dagger that Moon had strapped on herself before.
I had never seen her use it, so I didn't know the actual shape of the dagger, but the sheath that it was in looked very similar.
After picking this dagger up, the demon commander came out from behind the bars and stood amongst the demons.
Even the demons had confused looks as they looked at the dagger that the commander was holding. It seemed that not a single one of them knew what the commander wanted to use this dagger for.
But the commander didn't care about that.
The demon commander just held this dagger up in front of his face before revealing an evil smile. This was a true evil smile that made it clear that this person was cruel and vindictive, a smile that a true demon would have.
As he held this dagger, he also said, "Good, I want to see what kind of show that elf will give me."
The demons were even more confused when they heard this, but the demon commander didn't bother explaining anything. The demon commander just gave a satisfied nod before putting the dagger away.
Then the demon commander tossed the key back to the demon that had brought it over to him and said, "Put it back."
The demon almost fumbled the key since he wasn't expecting the commander to throw it at him, but he was able to catch it in the end. As he did so, he let out a sigh of relief. ????????????????????????????????.????????????
The commander would pick someone up just for a few words, he didn't even want to imagine what the commander would do to him if he had dropped this key…
So the demon quickly ran back to the stalagmite and put the key back in the compartment before pressing something again to close it.
After that, he ran back to the demon commander's group.
Once he was back, the demon commander started heading towards the passage that I had used to come to this room.
But before he left, he turned back and looked around the room again.
Still, seeing that he couldn't find anything, he didn't look back again as he walked right out of this room with the other demons following him.
