The Author's POV

Chapter 181

Entering the castle, we soon found ourselves inside of a long and narrow corridor in which a red carpet dyed the floor.

-Clank!

Closing the door behind him, Kevin glanced at the bodies of the orcs that Silug had just taken out.

With one body inside of the trolley and two leaning against the wall of the hallway it was safe to say that they were not going to wake up anytime soon.

"Alright, if everything goes according to what I've observed, there shouldn't be another turn shift for the next twelve hours which is within our eight-hour limit."

Pausing for a second and staring at Silug and then the orcs on the ground, Kevin sighed in relief as he continued.

"Fortunately he held back and didn't kill the guards, else the situation would've turned troublesome"

...Although Silug had broken their necks, because of the orcs strong constitutions, they were still alive.

Albeit barely.

Had Silug killed the orcs, then things would've become troublesome as they would've immediately alerted the demons of their presence.

The reason being was because each of the orcs had signed a contract with a demon. If their contractee suddenly died, they would be the first ones to know as their souls would be damaged.

Looking at me, Kevin started speaking.

"Ren, now that we've entered the castle we should still not let our guard down as I'm not sure about how many enemies are hiding in the building..."
