GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

The main divine ability of Order is control. Control can be used for many things. He can use it to control gravity, and space, or manipulate forces. Zernon has not been able to close the distance between them so he intends to pull Helios to him. He will be able to use his net and hammer when they are close to each other.

Of course, Helios is not alright with that plan. He combined the two cannons together and fired the attack he has been preparing. He was preparing a star within each cannon and would have fired two beams with the power of a star at his opponent but he doesn't have time to prepare it. So he combined the two unfinished stars.

Combining the two doesn't make them ready. Instead, they reacted with each other and exploded to create an attack with the power of an exploding star. An arc of heated plasma spread outward towards Zernon. Space warped because of the heat as the arc raced toward its objective. The attack is more powerful than what Helios planned but it is also short-lived.

Zernon's white amour began to glow as he infused it with his Authority. The arc clashed with his armor and created an explosion of heat and light but it couldn't harm Zernon. Zernon exerted more force and pulled Helios faster to him. The explosion created shockwaves that destroyed their surroundings. Zernon did not care about that. He single-mindedly focused on getting Helios close to him.

Helios formed more swords that he began dropping on Zernon while he resisted the pull with all he has. He had to stop that when Zernon started throwing hammers at him. The hammers will strike him and fly to Zernon's hands to be thrown again. Even the hammer on the floor joined the one in Zernon's arm to harass him so Helios had to form shields to protect himself from the hammers. Still, Zernon's hold on him continued to increase and he is being pulled closer and closer.

Zernon grinned evilly the closer Helios got to him. He is a fisherman and Helios is his stubborn fish on a hook. His grin faltered when Helios jumped forward all of a sudden. It caught Zernon off guard. The pulling force that was like a rope attached to Helios suddenly went slack. Zernon stumbled but he reacted quickly. He threw his net toward the airborne Helios.

Helios jumped forward and activated one of the runes on his body mid-flight. His body resonated with light and he turned into a ray of sunlight for a short time. He phased through the net and appeared in front of Zernon.

Zernon's eye widened. He recovered from the sudden change of force but he can't react to this. He watched as Helios thrust his spear forward to strike his chest. The spear struck the armor. There was a brief flash as the armor resisted but the resistance failed and the spear pierced through it to enter Zernon's body.

His attack with the spear is not like the previous explosion of a star. It is not a widespread attack of unfocused energy. It is precise, deadly, and unblockable. He had performed a light resonance shift to make sure he nailed it right.

Zernon did not expect it despite being injured by something like that previously. He lost two arms to a blade that phased out too but he didn't anticipate Helios phasing out because he doesn't know that if the blade can do something, so can Helios. After all, they are made from the same thing, which is his body. He is bigger than the spear so phasing out is energy intensive. Fortunately, he has never been in need of energy.

This time Zernon stopped himself from screaming. Instead, he reversed the pulling force on Helios. A wave of repelling force ejected from his body in all directions. He made it explode between them so Helios was blasted and thrown away from him. The two of them stopped fighting and looked at each other.

Helios teased him. He is winning, so he can indulge in chatting with his opponent. "Have you realized that I am much stronger in the divine plane?"

In the main plane, he is a king of law with 100 times the stats of a sovereign and an authority of 100 making him equivalent to a sovereign in power. A sovereign has an Authority of 10,000 but his stats have helped him bridge the gap in power.

Everything changed when he entered the divine plane. The Celestial Authority is the foundation of the power of a Celestial just like a seed of power is to a Sovereign. A sovereign is equivalent to a Celestial but they can't beat a Celestial because of the suppression of the divine plane. Sovereigns lose their authority in the divine plane but Helios gains one.

In a nutshell, in the divine plane, Helios has 100 times the stats of a Sovereign with the Authority of a Celestial. His heritage as the half-celestial of the sun swaps his suppressed Authority of a king of law for that of a Celestial which makes him much stronger in the divine plane than in the mortal realm.

Zernon doesn't need to know the specifics of how Helios is stronger to realize that he is outmatched. The spear that broke his defense and gored him is more than enough clue as to how outclassed he is. That's why he called all of his Archangels to come and assist him.

He called them when Helios cut his two hands. They were at the back of the army so it took a while to get here. He was stabbed in the chest in that period of time so he was right to call for help. The Archangels came in a hurry to support him. They flapped their 12 wings as fast as possible to get to him. They were late to help him but they got to him in time and will hopefully prevent another stabbing.
