"Why hasn't there been a return?"
The High Priest's brow furrowed slightly.
And just as his patience was running thin, the departed Blood Demon Cultists finally returned.
Behind him, one after another, figures in black robes followed, all of them unmistakably Blood Demon Cultists.
However, all the Blood Demon Cultists seemed somewhat uncertain, and their numbers were fewer than the Blood Demon High Priest had expected.
"Why did it take you so long to return? And... why are there so few of you?"
The High Priest frowned and asked.
"Lord High Priest, something unexpected happened."
The leading Blood Demon Cultist seemed flustered and quickly stepped forward, whispering.
"What? Are you saying our people have turned traitor?"
The High Priest was slightly startled.
"Yes... It seems like there are traitors among the True Believers we gathered, they suddenly attacked the others just now..."
