GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1314 Intentionally Obtuse.

But she began to frown when it got too close to her. She is a round ball so her frown is not a change in her facial expression. She made her displeasure known by producing an aura to deter the Malekite.

But the Malekite didn't stop. It wasn't cowered by her majestic pressure. In fact, its faith in her spiked and it continued to approach her while praising her.

She had to ask, "What are you doing?"

She hasn't been in a good mood recently so it was easy for anger to seep into her tone.

"I just want to touch your greatness. I am willing to die if I can just touch a single hypha of yours."

"Go back." She ordered sternly.

The Malekite didn't go back. He didn't even stop. That made her angry. So she prepared to punish it. That was when she was struck by an unseen attack.

The attack is similar to the one that happened this morning. It bypassed her defenses and struck her godhood directly. But unlike the previous attack, her godhood was attacked from several directions this time. It stunned her. Then the Malekite rushed forward to touch her.

Her guards were shocked by the brazen move of this member of their race. Their god didn't do anything as the Malekite rushed forward but they are not going to watch this blasphemy unfold before their eyes without doing anything. They rushed forward with clubs and other weapons grasped by tentacle-like appendages.

One might call the sight of spherical balls of fungi wielding weapons comical but it is anything but comical. These Malekite guards are strong and capable of dishing out serious damage which they displayed now to their fullest potential.

They struck the disrespectful Malekite just as he touched their goddess. They smashed the blasphemer to a pulp. Then they froze. This didn't just occur here. Every Malekite in the plane froze at that point. Both Malekite and every member of her race froze.

Meanwhile Within Malekite.

An entity that looks like a multicolored cloud with tentacles or a jellyfish has surrounded her godhood. This cloud is choking her godfire directly while speaking to her.

Legion-7 said to her, "Surrender. Resistance is futile. Become one with me and achieve greatness."

He was chuckling to himself as he spoke. This situation reminded him of an unpleasant memory that he can make fun of now.

"Who are you?" She shouted. "You are not Gholu."

"Who I am doesn't matter now. What matters is that you have a godhood and I want it."

"You can't have it. I am a god. I cannot fall like this."

Legion-7 was kind enough to assure her, "Don't be worried. Many gods have died in far more embarrassing manners. Your death like this will not cause people to mock you. In fact, when I am done with you, no one will know that you have died."

But she wasn't convinced. She resisted with all her might. She yelled mentally, "You cannot kill me. You can never kill me."

Legion-7 snorted. "Are you being intentionally obtuse right now? I can and I will kill you. It is just a matter of time."

Her god fire raged and burned Legion-7. But it wasn't enough to repel him. Only his shell of grafted soul was burned and that's after the power of the godfire has been reduced by his soul force.

Malekite is equivalent to a lord of law so she can't threaten him. If not for the fact that godfire happens to be highly destructive to spiritual beings then she wouldn't be able to struggle at all. So he acquired little damage despite her best efforts, and then he healed the little damage that she caused to his cocoon with Origin energy.

"Give up." He told her. "You can't stop me from getting your godhood. Give up resistance and let me consume you. Your resistance is futile. Or are you hoping for help?"

Her resistance failed to deter him but it also stopped him from subduing her immediately. So he maintained his attack on her godhood while waiting for her to run out of divine energy. Unlike him who has an infinite supply of Origin energy and can fight all day, she doesn't have an infinite source of divine energy.

Ideally, a god has infinite divine energy from the faith of their believers. That is as long as their rate of consumption doesn't exceed the rate at which they replenish divine energy.

Unfortunately, the rate at which divine energy is replenished is very slow and because Gods have limited capacity for divine energy until they become Celestials, she has a limited storage of divine energy to fight him off.

Even so, she won't be easy to take down. As long as she has a constant supply of faith, then she will be able to transform it into divine energy. It will prolong this struggle. But If by chance, her connection to the faith of their believers is blocked by a spiritual entity, then they won't be able to help her replenish her divine energy at all.

Legion-7 has completely blocked her supply of faith so he was right when he said her resistance was futile. Her resistance fell through after an hour of struggling. Her defense of godfire waned so his tentacles could finally burrow into her godhood.

But that's not the end of their fight. She is not an unaware soul fragment in the spiritual dimension. Her soul is complete and strong. Her soul also has the divine will of a god which is something even soul prowlers don't have. It means it will not be easy to graft her.

It truly wasn't easy. Legion-7 had to spend an extra 10 minutes bombarding her mind with memories to erode her will. What made things more difficult was that she was older than him and Gehaldirah. She has lived for more than 10 Origin cycles. So he had to use the memories of the soul fragments that he had grafted onto himself to gain an advantage in brainwashing her.
