The Supreme God

Above all else, the maternal tree was respected by the wood puppet race.

Without it, the race wouldn't have come into being. The maternal tree was their mother in this case.

The maternal trees were hidden in places that no other creatures had access to. In fact, most of the other races were ignorant of their existence.

The only duty of the maternal trees was to give birth to more members of the wood puppet race. They never met with outsiders.

Therefore, Austin's request had offended all members of the wood puppet race and they would not accept it.

"Austin, it's an exceptionally rude request to see the maternal tree. You've disrespected the wood puppet race.

If the governing gods of the wood puppet race knew about this, they would come for revenge.

Just drop it,"

Asa warned.

In Asa's mind, Austin only wanted to see the maternal tree of the wood puppet race because he was curious.

"It doesn't matter. I must see it,"

Austin replied, smiling confidently at him.

"Brat, I don't think you want to see the maternal tree because you are curious. There must be another reason,"

the gnome cut in.

"You are right. No one knows me better than you do,"

Austin replied with a nod.

"Wood puppet race, don't worry. I would never do anything to hurt your maternal tree,"

Austin said, turning to face the members of the wood puppet race.

"Human boy, you need to give up now. The maternal tree never visits with outsiders,"

a genuine premium-grade divine god of the wood puppet race growled, narrowing his eyes at Austin.

"Are you all this foolish? If you don't agree, I will kill you,"

Austin threatened.

"It would be an honor to die protecting the maternal tree,"

the genuine premium-grade divine god replied in a determined tone.

Austin slumped his shoulders. He had no idea what else he could try.

"Brat, kill us if you want to. We will never, ever take you to the maternal tree!"

"We all dream of dying for the maternal tree!"

"Brat, we will never bow to the enemy!"

Not a single member of the wood puppet race looked scared. They continued to roar loudly as Austin tried to ignore it and think. Apparently they would rather die than lead an outsider to the maternal tree.
