The Supreme God

Austin could be merciful or wrathful depending on the situation. Since he had no personal grudges against these faces, and he actually once met a giant face who had saved his life, he now decided against hurting these members of the face race.

"He is too powerful. We are no match for him!

Send someone to fetch the supreme grandmaster!"

exclaimed a semi-governing god.

"Young man, you've gone too far.

You've trespassed into our territory and injured our people.

As we don't have any enmity with you, what is your reason for doing this?"

To everyone's astonishment, a loud, imposing voice suddenly reverberated in the space.

Immediately after, eight huge, aged faces floated out of the door floating in the void.

These eight faces were the governing gods of the face race.

The situation had reached such a stage that they were forced to appear.

"Ha-ha! I've waited for so long for you.

I thought you would huddle up and hide like a turtle forever,"

remarked a governing god from the wood puppet race, with a laugh.

"Humph, we have long suspected that your race is behind all this.

What on earth did you do to trick this young human and convince him to work for you?

Young man, tell us, what did the wood puppet race offer you?

Our clan will double their price as long as you don't work for them anymore,"

a governing god of the face race proposed.

The governing gods of the face race believed that the wood puppet race had bribed this young man with a lot of money. Why else would he risk his life for them?

"Your assumption is correct. The wood puppet race did make a generous offer.

However, your race can't give me the benefits that they promised.

I have no ill-will toward your race.

My purpose is to collect an item from Longevity Valley. I will leave as soon as I get it.

No one will get hurt if you stay out of my way.
