GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Stelios's decision to turn on Zernon is not unfounded. He was already in trouble losing 60% of himself. Losing 39% has pushed that to doomed. He can't heal right now. He already sacrificed everything he had including his divine lords to become stable enough at 40%, so there is nothing he can do now except to have a bump in power.

He felt a pull on himself when Helios came to the divine kingdom last time. His separate body parts tried to reunite. He could resist Helios back then but that has changed now that he is too weak. He will have no choice but to be imprisoned in that jail in Helios' Stigmata if Helios comes to the divine plane again.

So this is very important for him. He needs the Celestial Supreme to die so that he can live. Besides the necessity, he deserves to be the Celestial Supreme. He has been patient and served his due for a long time. It is time to be the Celestial Supreme and this moment is the weakest that Zernon is ever going to get. This is a reward for his patience and he will take it regardless of his need for it.

The two Celestials engaged in a Deathmatch with no one to intercede. None of the gods helped them because they were fighting and losing to the scythe attacking their Godhood. The scythe is not harming them, it is only disconnecting their Godhood from their body temporarily. It made them vulnerable and unable to resist what happened next.

The residual of the black skull attack transferred to all the gods around after losing its target. Tiny black threads of darkness used the scythe as a beacon and wormed its way into their bodies where it began to rampage about. The scythe within them became empowered with the power of 5 Authorities and permanently severed their connection to their Godhood. Then the remnant of the back skull destroyed their divine bodies.

The gods were dying all around them meanwhile, Stelios's hold on Zernon continued to increase over time. Unlike Stelios that has reached his lowest point and cannot go any lower, Zernon is weakening and he is weakening fast. Fighting Stelios is a losing fight. He has to go all out or he will die.

Even if he manages to repel Stelios, he will be close to death like never before unless he can consume the sun god but that's a long shot. If he were capable of that, he would have turned on the sun god right from the start, not the other way around. He did two things at once. He called for help while he gave up part of his body to Stelios.

A section of the white and black orb separated from its main body. The section that got divided is also the one that Stelios is latching on to. Stelios grabbed onto it thinking that he is making progress with it his endeavor to eat Zernon. He was effectively stalled trying to digest the sacrifice.

The piece that was sacrificed might be small but Zernon is stronger than Stelios. He is much denser so it is going to take time for Stelios to digest it. Zernon took the opportunity to run away. He chose to run towards the helper that he called for. Stelios gave chase after digesting the piece soon after but a gap as already been created between the two of them.

The two Celestials disappeared from the divine council chambers leaving behind the dying and dead gods. The council chamber has become a scene of death and destruction. The once scenic view of stars above the chambers has disappeared to show just pitch-black darkness. The explosion of the GodSlayer did the most damage to the location. Large fractures spread throughout the floor and walls.

There are no bodies to allude to the death that occurred here despite the number of gods that have died. Their bodies have been consumed leaving behind multicolored orbs. These multicolored orbs are the Godhood of gods. Their numerous amount is the only indication that there used to be a lot of gods here.

The glittering godhoods that littered the place began to change. Black and red tendrils of energy engulfed them and gave shape to them. These shapes were at first indistinct until they became red shadows with two bright and pure white eyes. The red shadows are holding a black scythe. It is the same black scythe that used to mark the Godhoods.

More and more godhoods from the gods that the explosion killed became Aeternus's divine avatars. Aeternus might not be here but he is capable of expressing his will through his DIVINE AVATAR ability. The black scythe took over the Godhood now that their previous owners are no more. It will be bad if all these ownerless Godhoods fall to the mortal realm to create a new batch of gods. That will invalidate a lot of Legion's work.

The vulnerable godhoods created by the explosion were the first to be converted into avatars of the divine demon king. These avatars locked onto the direction that the two Celestials flew and joined in the chase. Then the gods still alive were killed by the combined effort of the scythe and the remnant power of the skull. They too were converted and also joined the chase. Soon all the gods became demonic wraiths and chased the two celestial orbs.

The targets of the chase continued their struggle without care. Stelios has grown stronger so he is faster than before and he is gaining on Zernon. Zernon's headstart is dwindling and he will eventually be caught, Fortunately, his helper has arrived. He just has to hold on for a little more and he will be saved.

A god covered in golden armor rushed towards them from the opposite direction. The armor is made of tiny strings of different colors meshed together to make the golden color. This god flew towards the two of them from the front while the red spectres chased them from behind. The first to reach them will be the winner.
