The Supreme God

"Austin, do you think Humphrey has improved much lately?"

the sky-devouring dog asked worriedly the moment it saw Austin.

"He has the body of a chaotic sky-devouring beast, and as time goes on his strength increases as well.

He will be serious trouble to deal with in the future,"

the tiger sighed, already exhausted just by the thought of it.

"You're right. Once the chaotic sky-devouring beast has grown into an adult, he's going to be extremely fierce.

My guess is he will swallow the entire Sea of Chaos in one gulp and just disappear, never to show up again,"

the big black bull said, sighing as well. It seemed to be filled with sadness.

"We need to find a way to take him down together.

If we don't, it won't be long before he makes his way to the Fallen Divine Valley to harass us and cause us hassle.

The twelve of us are definitely no match for him.

Unless our master shows up to fight Humphrey.

But if our master reveals himself to take action, it would only throw things out of control and cause more issues.

I'm sure that our master's enemies will find him and then things would get real troublesome,"

said the colorful rooster, shaking its head dejectedly.

The twelve zodiac animals all already felt defeated and demoralized.

"I'm sorry, sirs. I brought this trouble to the Fallen Divine Valley. It's my fault,"

Austin apologized, guilt consuming him now.

He knew Humphrey had made the Fallen Divine Valley his target because of him. He was the one Humphrey wanted, the reason he had come here.

"Don't do that to yourself, Austin. Humphrey would have targeted the Fallen Divine Valley sooner or later, with or without your presence.

It's not your fault. There's nothing for you to be sorry for.

All you should be thinking about is a way to kill him,"

the black bull said, trying to ease Austin's mind.

"Right now, we don't really have a way to kill him.

That chaotic sky-devouring beast, is still in its infancy, but we can't do anything to him.

I'm scared to even imagine what it would be like when the chaotic sky-devouring beast grows into an adult. It would most likely be impossible for us to kill Humphrey then,"

the tiger said slowly, looking off into the distance.
