GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Legion-7 was very angry.

"That thief stole my prize." He said in anger. "She stole the title of child of the plane."

Razor was his prey. He was supposed to infect the boy with his soul virus. But She stole him from his hands. The tide of the situation turned with the change in title. He began losing the plane as soon as he lost the title.

The major issue is that Kilorita is too powerful now. She can also sense every being that has been parasitized by him so can direct her immense power to the right place. She was able to quickly cut off his avenues of attack at the will of the plane.

That's the first thing she did. She targeted the clones he made to attack the Will of the plane above the other infected.

She can do this because she is connected to the Will of the plane now so she can find the source of attacks. But unlike the demigod who was weak, she is a god and a Celestial too. She has an infinite storage of divine energy and the recent increase in faith has made it so she has an endless supply of faith.

Legion-7 complained again, "That useless demigod had one job. That was not to die to anyone in the plane. It should have been easy to do considering that he was the strongest in the plane. Now he has died."

Then he paused in his ranting. He thought of something incredulous. "Could this have been the plan of the will of the plane all along? Could it have made the child of the plane close to her so that she would take the bait? Is the Will of the plane that intelligent?"

He can't help but think that the Will of the plane schemed to create the perfect defender for the plane. This is because he would have been able to get the demigod easily since Razor wasn't a god. A demigod who could burst forth with the power of the Celestial Supreme is still a demigod. But the Will of the plane chose him above the other viable options.

Lightning is one of his weaknesses but it is not the only one. The gods can't fight him because he is a spiritual entity. But not every god is defenseless against him. The god of death and Underworld has demigods that can perform soul attacks. Their soul attacks might not be able to kill him but they will certainly be able to destroy his host and expose him to the punishment of the void universe.

Surely the Will of the plane knows that. After all, it is through the punishment of the void universe that it knows that he is weak to lightning. The lightning of a demigod surely cannot compare to the lightning of the void universe but the Will of the plane chose the demigod.

This demigod also happened to be the child of the Celestial Supreme. There's no way the Will of the plane didn't know about the history of the plane and how the divine plane came to be fused with the plane.

If the Will of the plane knew and it knew what could happen, it ought to try and protect the demigod it selected to protect the plane by keeping him as far away from the power hungry Celestial Supreme. But it didn't do that. Instead, it made them close relatives.

He laughed and dismissed the thought. Then he said to the Will of the plane, "Maybe I am being overly paranoid. I doubt you are capable of such a..."

The Will of the plane finally spoke to him. "It is as you think. Prepare for your defeat."

Legion-7's laughter got choked in his mind. It died as he realized what just happened. Then he began to laugh again after realizing that he had been schemed against.

He said, "Nicely done. Nicely done. I have underestimated you."

Underestimation is a sin Legion rarely makes. Most of the time, they estimate and prepare for the worst whenever they plan for something. He had also prepared for the Will of the plane to be able to plan and scheme because the Will of the Lumen plane also planned and schemed for the creation of Rinoz and for Ragnarok to set the ghouls free. But there was a blind spot in his preparation.

He expected the Will of the plane to try everything to defend itself and protect its child of the plane. He didn't know it was possible so he didn't expect the Will of the Gattling plane to be willing to sacrifice its child of the plane.

Apparently, the Will of the plane will do anything as long as it is for the good of the plane. It will even sacrifice its child of the plane if it will lead to the creation of a more powerful child of the plane who is a Celestial Supreme that wields lightning.

That was his blind spot. Now he knows it is possible but it is too late to prepare for it.

Just thinking about it made him shake his head in wonder. "I have been bamboozled this time around. The Will of the plane has created a big problem for me."

He is not one to give up because of the appearance of unfavorable circumstances so he is already thinking about the solution to his predicament. Unfortunately, the more he thinks about it, the more he finds the situation problematic.

He won't be able to take down the new child of the plane even if he tries to possess her with his full power. His soul parasites also can't survive her god fire. Most importantly, is the fact that she wields lightning and she can sense him. Those two abilities have made her a carefully bred hound dog designed to hunt and kill him.

He had to lament. "This is like Rinoz all over again. Except that Kilorita is wiser, older, and more intelligent."

"But this is not over. It is far from over."

A/N: I bet none of you expected this turn of events. Who would have thought that the true schemer was the entity pretending to be deaf and dumb. Poor Razor. Poor poor Razor.
