As if waiting for the master's command, ready to pounce on the prey at any moment.
...
Those sinister-looking little puppets were just about to take action!
But just in a moment!
Accompanied by a crisp "crack" sound!
Each one shattered like fragile glass.
Sawdust flew everywhere!
The malice that once filled the air instantly dissipated!
Leaving only the empty chamber, with some fine wooden debris floating around.
"Oh?"
The surprise in the muddled voice was clear to hear!
Evidently, they did not expect their intricately controlled puppets to be so fragile.
However!
After a brief moment of surprise, the voice suddenly turned into a wild laugh:
"Hahaha! Excellent! Indeed, the Divine Era has restarted! To have such a strong individual appear! Worthy of my intervention!"
The laughter echoed in the chamber, making the walls tremble slightly, and the air was filled with an increasingly intense evil aura.
