5. Explosives
Thirty minutes later, six of the heroes have assembled in the temple.
"If the idiot is the first one here, doesn't that mean he's the one who activated the barrier?" Chamo said with an eerie smile.
"I've already told you! Someone was here before I was! The door had already been unlocked when I arrived!"
"Meow, why don't we just check the door then?" Hans suggested. "With Mora here holding the key, the door must've been opened in a forceful manner. If Adlet doesn't turn out possessing the tool that causes the opening of the door, then obviously the traitor is someone else."
Agreeing to Hans' idea, everyone ran out of the temple. The lock turned out to have a great amount of scorch marks, making it quite obvious to deduce that there had been an explosion taking place.
"Do you happen to possess any explosives, Adlet?" Hans grinned when Adlet suddenly paled. "You wouldn't mind if we check your belongings, would you, meow?"
"I..." Adlet was at a loss of words. He had explosives, but no one should know that. So why was it such a coincidence that the door was opened by an explosion? Had the traitor known that he carried explosives?
AN: I will be writing this story parts by parts. Not chapter by chapter, because I just couldn't figure out where a chapter should end in a story like this.
