"I'm going to destroy all these annoying tombstones!" Austin growled.
He charged forward, the long sword in hand and the dazzling sword radiance gushing from his body.
Austin was gearing up to launch an all-out attack.
The immense energy of swordsmanship flowed out from him furiously and attached to his sword.
The sword's aura soared like a wild beast provoked from its deep slumber.
In a flash,
Austin swung the mighty weapon at the tombstones floating around the void.
A terrifying face then suddenly appeared on each of the tombstones.
Austin could tell by the auras they emitted that they were as powerful as governing gods.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He smashed those tombstones one after another, striking through them with his sword.
They were all decimated and the faces disappeared along with them.
"What is this? Austin, how is your fighting power so incredible and horrible?"
All the governing gods of the underworld began panicking, filled with terror by Austin's strength.
They deeply regretted ever having attacked him.
If only they had known better.
As it turned out, the governing gods of the underworld had been hiding in these coffins for the past few hundred years and had never learned of what had happened outside their coffins.
They were totally ignorant of Austin's true strength.
They had no idea he'd fought Humphrey several times and even managed to injure him.
If they had known all these things, they would, without a doubt, never have made the foolish decision to challenge him.
"Austin, it's all our fault. Please forgive our stupidity and recklessness. We shouldn't have picked a fight with you.
In fact, there's not even a sliver of animosity between you and our force. How about we let this go and join our hands to fight Humphrey together?
What do you think?"
a governing god of the underworld offered, friendlier than they had been before.
The hostility in his eyes had vanished.
"Humph! You started all this and now you ask for peace? Who do you think you are? Why should I do or believe anything that comes out of your mouth?"
Austin snapped with a vicious sneer.
If they had treated him with respect and humility, and then offered him peace from the beginning, he might have considered forgiving them.
Unfortunately, that was not the case; they had suddenly called for a truce after battling him for so long.
There was no way Austin was going to agree and let them off that easy.
"You started this fight,
I say we finish it.
It's been a few hundred years since I've been in an actual, serious fight. I'd like to battle it out till I'm sufficiently satisfied,"
Austin said, with his displeasure for their cowardice clear on his face.
"What do you want from us?"
another of the governing gods yelled.
"I've already made clear what it is I want.
Quit stalling and let's end this."
Austin said his last word and waited no more, stepping forward and waving his sword again.
This time, he had his sights set on the black towering mountain.
"Austin, stop! You're crossing the line now!"
huffed one of the governing gods of the underworld.
"Fine then! Let's see how strong you really are!"
Austin had pissed them off and they weren't going to stand aside and let him do as he pleased.
"Unrivaled Coffin Array!"
shouted one of the governing gods.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Coffins of all sorts of colors popped up one after the other, flying out from the bodies of the governing gods.
Since they were governing gods, they were able to create human worlds and so had several such worlds in their bodies.
This was where they usually kept these coffins.
