The Supreme God

The figure that emerged from the tree was not a living person. Its face was dry and wrinkled, completely dehydrated. It was skinny with deeply set eyes. Two green eyeballs were fixed on them like ghost fire. It was tall and all of its bones could be seen under the skin. It was terrible to look at and would give anyone the creeps.

Austin didn't feel any vitality from it, but there was a thick death breath and the smell of a rotting corpse. However, from its bony body, Austin could feel that it had tremendous strength.

Austin and Violet realized that the rotten odor that they had smelled earlier had emanated from it. It was blocked by the dead wood, so it was not so strong.

Sensing that there was something strange about the dead tree, Austin attacked it with the sword-light. And unexpectedly, the corpse appeared before their eyes.

"What's this?" Violet asked in surprise.

"I have no idea, but I'm quite sure it's not a living person," Austin answered, shaking his head.

While they were talking, their faces turned pale. They were terrified when they saw the withered body in front of them carry a strange expression on its wrinkled face. It seemed to be grinning, but because of its wizened face, the grin seemed very strange and fierce. Suddenly a hoarse voice came from its mouth, "Ho ho…".

The growl was extremely weird and harsh. It was blood-curdling.

Listening to his growl, Violet couldn't stop shivering and hid behind Austin.
