GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Razor's single eye sparked with lightning and the blue lines like tattoos on his red skin glowed briefly.

He made up his mind. Then he left the bacony of his Villa and went to the palace of his mother. There are guards on the way but they let him pass due to his identity. He was able to meet with his mother as soon as possible.

His mother looked as beautiful as ever. Her single eye was glowing brightly. Her smooth and hairless body gleamed with a tempting sheen. Her beauty could be seen in every blue line on her yellow skin. Anyone who looks upon her visage will understand why his father fell in love with her.

He crossed his hands over his chest in greeting and said "Blessed Mother, I seek audience with you."

She smiled at him and waved him over. "Come over my child. Tell mother what you want."

She is usually stern with him but she has been showing affection to him ever since he became the child of the plane. He knows that the change is due to his importance to the plane but he appreciates the love that she shows nonetheless. It is better than when she thought nothing of him.

He approached her throne and bowed in respect. Then he made his purpose known.

"We must fight now Mother. The will of the plane is about to fall."

The Celestial Supreme was surprised. "That soon. It has only been 400 years. Even the Will of the plane cannot resist this disease?"

Razor's face fell. "It cannot. There have been too many deaths. If we hadn't allowed the deaths to reach such a level then the Will of the plane would be able to resist. But we did nothing and watched as our people died. We should have…"

She waved her in dismissal. "Yes, yes. I have heard this many times before. We should have fought back and destroyed the infected. But the disease can't be eliminated. It can only be repressed. You yourself said so."

"But we should at least have tried. We didn't do anything to stop it all. That's why our situation has reached this level this quickly. It was a mistake to watch without…"

She asked him coldly, "Do you have a solution now or are you here just to complain?"

Razor gulped. He realized that he had gotten carried away in a conversation with the strongest being on the plane. Well, she is the previously strongest being in the plane ever since he became the child of the plane but that is no reason to get her angry.

He replied respectfully. "I have a solution. We should wipe out every infected and the branches that the source of the plague has extended to attack the will of the plane. I can't find the root but I can find the branches. We can help the will of the plane recover that way."

His mother fell silent. She nodded. "That's a good idea. We should do that. I will compel the other Celestials into action."

Razor smiled. "Thank you, mother."

"It is what I should do." She said.

Even so, he bowed in gratitude and praised her, "The Gattling plane is lucky to have a kind and benevolent Supreme like you, Mother."

She said sternly, "Enough flattery. We have work to do."

Her tone was stern but she had a smile on her face. So she was pleased with the flattery.

Then she asked, "How powerful are you now? Can you defeat the source of the plague?"

Razor's smile fell. He sighed and said, "My strength has fallen with the death of so many people. I can currently match a grand god. It should be enough to defeat the disease since it is not strong enough to match Celestials."

As the child of the plane, he gains access to all the resources of the plane. He doesn't get origin energy because the plane doesn't have it and can never have it since the divine plane has fused with the main plane. But because the divine plane has fused with the main plane, he has access to divine power, the power of gods.

Currently, if he activates the call for support, he will gain divine power equal to a grand god or a Sovereign. That is a far cry from when he was at his peak. Unfortunately, the death of so many people and gods has reduced his power.

He didn't feel awkward about admitting that he has fallen in strength to his mother. After all, she is his mother. He can tell her anything.

The Celestial Supreme smiled when she heard his answer. "Good. Let me see just how strong you are."

A hand of lightning formed in front of her. Then it grabbed at Razor.

Razor saw this and his lit up. He became excited immediately.

"It seems Mother wants to play with me." He thought to himself.

Razor saw this and his lit up. He became excited immediately.

"It seems Mother wants to play with me." He thought to His mother started giving him her attention ever since he became a child of the plane. She would play fight with him regularly. This is not the first time she has done something like this.

He activated the call for support immediately. Silver threads appeared from the space around him to connect to him. His blue tattoos lit up and lightning flashed in his eyes. He roared valiantly as he clashed with the arm of lightning thrust at him.

He always wins in their play fight. But he lost this time around. The hand slapped him down hard against the ground. Then the hand grabbed him and squeezed him tightly.

Razor wasn't surprised by his defeat. But he was disappointed. He sighed and said, "I have lost mother."

"Yes, you have." The Celestial Supreme agreed.

But she didn't let him go. The hand continued to squeeze him. Razor struggled with all his might but he couldn't escape.

"Please stop, Mother. I can't take this anymore." He pleaded with a smile.

But his mother didn't listen. She just smirked and said, "Goodbye."
