"You've become stronger." Faust said in a slow voice that seemed to have a trace of wariness in it.
I narrowed my eyes to look at him before saying in a similar voice, "You have as well."
The two of us continued to look at each other like this for a bit longer before finally Faust said, "It seems like I won't be able to claim my toys today…"
Turning to the goliaths, Faust said, "Rejoice you fools. If it wasn't for this fool of a hero, then all of you would have been turned into my puppets today."
The goliaths looked angry when they heard this, but they didn't say anything.
With the look in their eyes, it was clear that they recognized that Faust was telling the truth.
If it hadn't been for me, then they would have been turned into skeletal puppets just like the remains of their ancestors.
As such, there wasn't anything that the goliaths could do to Faust.
After all, they were scared that he had something else up his sleeves.
