GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Then the hand squeezed harder. Razor's eye almost popped out of his head. It was partly due to his shock and partly due to the hand of lightning squeezing him.

"What are you doing Mother?" he asked in shock and trepidation.

She didn't reply. She already said her goodbyes. There is nothing else she has or wants to say.

Razor panicked. He realized that they were no longer play fighting. His mother wants to kill him now.

He realized something and his eyes widened further. "No, you can't be Mother. You are the plague."

She finally spoke, "Don't be stupid. There's no way anything could possess the Celestial Supreme. If that were true then we are all doomed."

He had to agree with her. After all, he should have sensed something wrong being this close to her. He would have known if she was possessed because of his title. But if she isn't possessed, why does she want to kill him.

"Why?" he struggled to ask.

She didn't reply. The silver power in the form of a barrier around him flashed and rippled as the hand squeezed. Then it broke and Razor was crushed. He died there at the hands of his mother.

The child of the plane died a pitiful death. Then the silver threads around Razor drifted and attached themselves to the Celestial Supreme. She has become the child of the plane now.

She said triumphantly, "Finally. My Authority will never be contested ever again. I will be the strongest till the end of time."

She is not under any external influence and neither is she possessed. She wanted to kill her son of her own will. She had wanted to kill him from the very first day that he became a child of the plane. But he foiled her attempt because he was stronger than her back then. She called it "play fighting" as an excuse for her attack and he believed her.

She is the Celestial Supreme. She is a Celestial and also the Supreme of the other Celestials. She is the best of the best. The strongest in the plane. Her position and authority were not disputable until the child of the plane was created.

The first issue she had with the child of the plane was that he could rob the gods of their power. The gods have fused with the plane and have therefore sealed the future of the plane regarding the path of perfection. That also means the child of the plane will "borrow" their divine power when he calls for support.

Razor could borrow power from all of them including her so he was stronger than every god including her. That is one of the issues she had with him. It would have been the only issue had the child of the plane been anyone in the plane not related to her. But the Will of the plane selected her child. This affected her in more ways.

A demigod of a Celestial is the best vessel for the Authority of their parent. Other vessels can use their divine power but they can't wield their Authority. Demigods on the other hand can even use the Authority of their parents without the agreement of their parents.

The Authority of their parent is their divine ability granted to them by their bloodline. So the Authority of their parent is their birthright. If the conditions are right, they can rob their parents of their Authority and replace them. Most Celestials kill their children because of this.

Kilorita didn't kill Razor because of a promise she had made to his father. His father was the one to carry Razor to term just like all the males of their race do. She loved his father so she was willing to make that promise.

She was the strongest in the plane and thought she had nothing to worry about back then so she made the promise not to kill their son. That decision came back to bite her when Razor became the child of the plane.

He was selected by the Will of the plane because he could wield her Authority Of Lightning. Apparently, the source of the plague is weak to lightning. But that decision automatically made the child of the plane and her to become enemies because he could take her Authority and replace her easily. It made Kilorita uneasy. She did not find the existence of her son pleasant at all.

If not for the fact that Razor had great ambitions of going to the ancient battlefield and pursuing the path of perfection after defeating the disease plaguing the plane, he would have acted to replace her immediately after he acquired his new power.

His behavior is unlike the previous child of the plane who wanted to replace her. That child of the plane planned to become a god. She would have become the strongest god of she retained the title after ascension to godhood but that wasn't enough for her. She also wanted to dominate the main plane as a god so she helped Kilorita fuse the main plane with the divine plane.

Kilorita accepted the help of the child of the plane since the fusion meant that the gods would be able to roam the main plane. But she also knew what the child of the plane was planning.

She knew that not only was the child of the plane content with dominating the main plane, but she also wanted to dominate the gods so she sabotaged the ambitious girl's ascension to godhood after the divine plane and main plane had fused.

Kilorita's wariness and longing for the power of the child of the plane began back then. Unfortunately, she couldn't get the power back then because the child of the plane failed her ascension and died because of the injuries.

Then a new child of the plane appeared after many Origin cycles and to top it off, it was her son. Razor didn't try to suppress her at all like the previous child of the plane. He remained obedient to her because he was naïve and ignorant. But just like the previous child of the plane, he had underestimated her.
