There was a deathly silence that hung in the air.
It was clear that the Merman King's group just couldn't believe what they had heard, but it really was hard for them to deny it when these facts were in front of them.
First, there was a god that was telling them all of this.
Even if it was a god that clearly had a grudge against their god, it wasn't as if this god would maliciously lie about something like this. Especially since there was someone that this god respected that was also here with them.
If there wasn't that person, then it would be easier for them to ignore this.
Second, there were all of these races that were currently in front of them like this.
When the evidence was in front of them like this, it really was hard for them to ignore.
The fear and anger that the members of these different races demonstrated were real. This kind of emotion could not be faked since they were even willing to fight for these feelings.
