Chapter 416 Butchered Like A Pig For A Sacrifice.

His six-armed figure in white shiny armor doesn't look heroic to the behemoth. Helios looks more like a death knight masquerading as a holy knight to the behemoth. The flesh of the Behemoths that came with it is still burned and smoking beside him. Even though Helios is only 10 meters tall, he seems terrifying like a demon from the abyss. The behemoth turned and ran.

Helios shook his head. "Foolish. I just said I am fast and you turn to run."

He isn't the only one with that opinion. The Celestial Supreme has the same opinion and is shouting it to the mind of the behemoth.

"Stand your ground and fight. Running is not the answer."

But the Behemoth won't listen now that it has regained control over its body. "I'm not doing anything you tell me, father. Not again, not ever again."



Helios flashed and arrived behind the fleeing behemoth. He stomped on the back of the behemoth and brought him to the ground. Then he pressed him down with his weight. One doesn't have stats in the 100 billion and not be heavy. He might look small but he weighs as heavy as a small star. The Origin energy he has been accumulating since his breakthrough from its unlimited source has increased his weight beyond the heaviest object found naturally within a plane. So the behemoth couldn't push him away.





Four of his arms held down the struggling behemoths while the other two morphed into blades. The blades are white solid constructs made from light and fire. They are also vibrating at a very high frequency so that they will be able to cut through matter easily.

He said the behemoth. "This is going to be very painful. Demonic sacrifices require it. I'm going to need you to brace yourself and stay still."

The terror of the behemoth only increased. It screamed, "Please let me go. I'll do anything you want. Anything."

Helios disregarded his pleas. "I wouldn't put that on you. I'm more of a doer. If I want something, I take it. I don't like to receive handouts from others."

He ignored the shouts, pleas, and promises from the behemoth and began the gory work of butchering the sacrificial lamb. His two blades used the small vulnerability between the different parts of the body armor to cut into the flesh of the behemoth. The vibrating blades cut into the tough flesh like very sharp saws rending it apart and causing thick white blood to flow.

The screams of the behemoths only increased after Helios got to work. The screams were irritating but Helios ignored them. It is the consequence of his current endeavor and he needs his offering to be alive during the sacrifice so he has to bear with it. The Celestial Supreme didn't ignore the screams.

He kept shouting to the screaming behemoth. "You're useless. Stop shouting and use your Authority. Do something. You are not my son for nothing. You should not be butchered like a pig."

The behemoth didn't stop screaming but it activated the Celestial Authority of Order. A phantom of the Celestial Supreme appeared around them but Helios exploded with the Celestial Authority of the Sun before it could do anything. He created a domain with his divine sense and filled it with plasma from his body. Then he ignited the plasma with Origin energy.

It looked like he became a star for a brief instant before he exploded. The explosion scattered the phantom as the Celestial Authority of the Sun clashed with the Celestial Authority of order. The behemoth, which can be called the only true giant of Order in the Zargoth plane couldn't do anything to stop Helios.

Helios targeted the joints of the limbs first. He cut the wrist and ankles. Then the joint of the elbow and the knee. Followed by the sockets at the shoulders. It is bloody work but he did it stoically. He isn't taking pleasure from it, but he will take pleasure from what the act will bring for Legion.

The situation is certainly odd but a lot of odd things have been happening recently so the gods watching don't know what Helios's aim is. Any transcendent from a normal race will be able to call out the first odd thing. It is that Transcendents don't have flesh and blood. You shouldn't be able to cut off their hands because what you're cutting off is a part of their existence that looks like a hand.

If you cut off a normal transcendent's hand, it can be easily reabsorbed back into the body of the transcendent unless the arm is destroyed. If the arm is destroyed, the transcendent can easily regrow another arm as long as they have energy and no laws are used in destroying the arm. But this is not the same for giants of order.

Giants of Order are anything but normal. Their transcendents are the same too, they are abnormal. They have two major and one hidden option for when they become transcendents. If the chains of order in their body entrap their soul too much as it usually does, the giant becomes a behemoth. Their existence becomes a prison cut off from the external world and resistant to changes. That rigidity means you can cut off their body.

If in a rare situation, the soul escapes the bondage due to some innate talent, the effect of a particular rune on their body or exposure to Origin energy, the giant of order becomes a Colossus. They are capable of expanding the cage that is their body to great sizes and they also lose their resistance to the external world due to it.

The already weakened cage that is their body will collapse when a Colossus dies. That's why every Colossus that he has killed didn't leave behind any corpse. Their body functions like those of normal transcendents. They disappear once they lose their connection to the consciousness of the main body.

Fortunately, this special Behemoth is not like a Collosus or else Legion would not target him as offering for a demonic sacrifice.
