John instantly guessed that this village chief might not be as fanatical as those so-called followers.
After all, his current role as a sacrificial offering meant that anyone who saw him would definitely want to capture him and take him back.
As the village chief, logically, his faith should be the deepest and most fervent.
Yet, upon seeing him, the chief had said nothing.
He even appeared very scared, hoping that John would leave quickly, which made the whole situation somewhat unclear.
"Speak up, what exactly are you planning for tonight's ritual? What's the deal with this so-called deity?"
The village chief, who had just been visibly scared, now trembled even more upon hearing John's question, as if he was about to wet himself from fear the next second.
"The deity is the deity. If you've escaped, then just go, don't come back. I know nothing."
The chief repeated this phrase over and over, making John even more suspicious.
