Chapter 411 Wait And See.

The two sides began to argue. Combative words were tossed around until it was about to escalate to real combat.

"Silence." The Celestial Supreme stopped them.

"Helios is a criminal of the church of order and numerous other churches. I have sent out forces to apprehend him. We will have more information when he is apprehended."

The gods calmed down and listened to him. After all, his words are final.

"He will be interrogated in front of all the gods once he has been apprehended. We will find out how he got his powers. We will get to the bottom of everything. Then we will decide what to do with that information. Helios will then be killed for his sins. He must die to atone for his error of casual murder of soldiers, priests, and an enforcer of the church of order."

The gods settled down after hearing what he said. Most of them have been placated by the willingness of the Celestial Supreme to be open-minded. They are especially impressed that he will interrogate Helios in front of everyone. They expected him to hog the secret of Helios' power to himself. It seems he is taking this seriously and sees it as something that concerns everyone, not just himself.



As for the death of Helios, so be it. They don't care about that. More than half of them want him dead anyway. He is the source of the problem that is about to challenge their way of life. As for the other half that might care about Helios, they are not willing to argue his case with the Celestial Supreme.

Helios might be the savior of the race if his secrets turn out to be beneficial to everyone but he is weak and he has angered the wrong person. No one favors him enough to try and change the Celestial Supreme's mind. The Celestial Supreme has already made a lot of concessions for everyone, they can't ask more of him.

It is highly unlikely that any plea for Helios will work anyway. Both Helios and his father have offended the Celestial Supreme. There's probably nothing that can change the Celestial Supreme's mind about killing them.

The Celestial Supreme became satisfied with the response of the gods. He couldn't help but smirk inwardly though. He is amused because he lied to them and they believed him hook line and sinker.

His reply appeased both sides since it is still uncertain what the outcome will be but he gave his forces orders to kill Helios not to capture him. He is not a fan of change and Helios represents a huge possibility of that. There's no way he will allow the possibility of being usurped to exist within the plane. He was interested in figuring out Helios's allegiance and his source of Origin energy before. But now, Helios's secrets will die with him.

His eyes glinted as he thought to himself, 'My plane, my rules.'

The God of Knowledge asked, "How do you intend to apprehend him? If what we just saw is real, then he will be a king of law and he must also have access to Origin energy."

Helios has to be taken seriously now. He is not some freshly baked transcendent. He is a freshly baked king of law with Origin energy to wield his control over the laws and as such deserves to be taken seriously. They cannot hope to apprehend him with ordinary transcendents.

The Celestial Supreme replied, "I'll do whatever it takes."

It isn't a good answer but it is good enough for the goods. They are able to glean from his words that he will pull out all stops and that is good enough for them. It has to be good enough for them, because if the Celestial Supreme fails to apprehend Helios, then there's nothing they can do about it.

The meeting dispersed and Celestial Supreme returned to his divine kingdom. Then he descended into the mortal realm. This time he didn't descend as an avatar. He descended into a transcendent. A group of giants of Order are rushing toward Helios. A colossus in full transformation is holding 9 other transcendents in his hands as he ran forward.

All of a sudden, the mild eyes of the Colossus turned black and white. One eye was pure white while the other became pure black. The Celestial Supreme spoke through his vessel to the others that he is carrying.

"Buckle up. We will pick up speed."

Then it activated an ability. "God step."

The long legs of the transcendent reached forward as he ran while the space between the legs of the Colossus shrank. The transcendent suddenly gained a massive boost in speed as it covered more distance.

The hidden god might have a lot of vessels but the gods also have one or two around. Transcendents are smart and will probably not go for becoming a vessel, but if you brainwash them well enough from childhood with religion, then it is highly possible for them to be foolish enough to become vessels for gods. It is this kind of thing that is under threat of extinction if the path of perfection opens up to giants of order. Then transcendents will disdain to be vessels even more.

These 10 transcendents are the bulk of the Celestial Supreme's stash of vessels. He had been keeping them for emergencies but Helios's breakthrough compelled him to bring them out. There is no greater emergency than the rise of the path of perfection. It will mean an end to the way of life of the giants of Order and the destruction of his world order.





The group of transcendents made a good time. They reached Helios quicker than expected, ready to do battle with him and capture him. Another divine council was called for this occasion. It wasn't to discuss but to watch the fight. Only the Celestial Supreme has any divine Influence in the surrounding so they need him to show them the fight. This is a fight that is being witnessed by all the gods. It is a fight that will alter the future of the giants of Order.
