The Supreme God

Austin stared at the three tokens on the hill.

"This is awesome! I'm going to get my hands on three more,"

Austin said to himself, smiling as if all his birthdays had come at once.

But while Austin was celebrating, the mermaid was doing the exact opposite. She felt afraid. Her breaths became heavier as she did her best to stabilize her shaking hands, which almost grabbed onto Austin's back for support.

"Austin, let's get out of here now!" she pleaded, beckoning her panic to him through her eyes.

The mermaid had a good reason to be afraid. The members of the beast race and the Novel Court were staring at Austin and her, their eyes burning through both of their skulls.

The mermaid didn't know the nature of these people, but to say that they looked intimidating would be an understatement. They basked in their defiant and deadly glory with no hint of fear whatsoever. It was hard not to be scared of them.

To make matters worse, they released a strong, threatening aura towards the direction of Austin and the mermaid, which did absolutely nothing to calm down the mermaid's nerves.

"We'll go as soon as I get those tokens," Austin said, nudging his head towards the hill. Despite the threat in front of them, he was determined.

He stretched his arm out, reaching for the three Illusionary Tokens.

When the people saw what Austin was attempting, they broke out of their glares, bursting into a fit of laughter. "This is ridiculous! They've lost their minds."

"Do these weaklings really think they could just show up here and get the tokens?

Do they really think we'll just stand here and do nothing about it?"

"I'm actually entertained by the two's audacity.

They have to be insane to think they can pull this off, especially when we're standing right here."

The people reacted, hurling insulting remarks at Austin and the mermaid.

A few minutes passed, and the genuine divine gods of the two forces still couldn't control themselves. Their faces turned red as they clutched their stomachs in laughter.

All of them thought Austin and the mermaid were idiots.

They thought the two were like clowns in a circus, making fools out of themselves for their audience's attention.

"Austin, le-let's find a way out," the mermaid said, still uncomfortable with the whole situation. "If we stay here longer, we'll be in greater trouble," she continued, doing her best to get her words out.

Austin could tell how nervous the mermaid was by the way she was grabbing onto his clothes for comfort. She did it in the same way a child held onto a stuffed animal when the night came.

"Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine. I'm here. I'm with you,"

Austin said with a soft smile, attempting to reassure the fearful mermaid.

Austin turned his attention towards the jeering crowd. "Idiots! All of you are idiots," he said defiantly as he looked at the genuine divine gods who were still too busy making him and the mermaid the butts of the joke. "Whatever. I don't even want to waste my time and energy on any of you," Austin said frustrated.

He shook his head at them before smiling knowingly to himself. 'They have no idea what's coming, ' he thought to himself.

He turned his body towards the artificial hill. With one swift gesture, he was able to grab all three Illusionary Tokens.
