The only way for a transcendent to be hurt enough to die is either with Origin energy or divine power. He sensed a lot of divine power earlier from Helios but it was like an inactive volcano. It was unused. It just shadowed everything and fooled the other gods. They didn't notice anything strange and thought Helios's prowess is from divine power. He wasn't fooled. He was able to sense the divine power and determine it to be Celestial power despite it being inactive.

If that explosion had contained divine power, his barricade would have been destroyed. That doesn't mean much on its own. But it means much when his barricade can sense the faint fluctuations of origin energy after the noise of divine power has died down.

Origin Energy was wielded so well that it seemed to be divine power. He wasn't fooled though. He descended to the ground immediately to confirm his suspicions. A black giant dressed in a white suit appeared where his barricade is. He sank into contemplation as he sensed the residual energy in the surrounding.

"It is Origin energy. That explosion contained Origin energy." He said with certainty.

He has confirmed the presence of Origin energy. Then he looked at Helios the source of the Origin energy and the origin of the celestial aura he was sensing earlier. Helios looked at him too and their eyes met. Then Helios turned away and ignored him. His golden figure meditated calmly in the air.

The Celestial Supreme flew up to him and asked. "What are you doing?"

"A lot of things one of which is ignoring you. I would like for you to do the same with me." Helios answered.

"I can't do that. You just killed several priests from different churches and you also killed an enforcer of my church. I cannot ignore you."

"Hmm. That's a shame." Helios's eyes were still closed as he meditated.

The Celestial Supreme began to fume. "Is that all you have to say for yourself? You're a criminal that has offended the entire gods of the pantheon."

"So?"

"So? So?" The Celestial Supreme began to shake with anger. "So?"

He was speechless and furious. He should be respected and revered. Maybe he should have gotten used to things not going his way recently but this still struck what was left of his pride. He certainly didn't expect this kind of dismissal from a boy that he witnessed being born. What's worse is that this is the second time he is getting this sort of dismissal. That pompous plant dragon also disrespected him.

Helios spoke up. "It really is a shame that you won't ignore me."

"Fine. I understand why you're proud. But mark my words, you will regret this course of action."

The Celestial Supreme understood that transcendents feel confident in their power because there's almost nothing that the gods can do to them. Helios is also a young giant who has been sheltered all his life so his pride and ignorance are understandable. The little twerp got his first taste of power and thinks himself unstoppable.

In fact, Helios should be more proud since he also has Origin energy within him and he shouldn't be surprised by the disrespect. It is like father and son. But pride doesn't mean power or security. The churches aren't reigning Supreme in the mortal realm for nothing. Ignorant or not, disrespect and blasphemy are the two monster grievous sins one can commit to a god. So he won't stomach Helios's disrespect.

If Helios is already behaving like this then how will he behave if he asks him how he got Origin energy? The Celestial power might be from Stelios but he isn't sure about it. The Celestial Supreme will rather apprehend him and then question him. Disrespect or not, all that matters is strength and he will show this young upstart the errors of his way.

He decided to give Helios one more chance. The gods are also watching after all. He wants to be fully justified for any extreme measures he employs to apprehend the boy. "I'm guessing you don't feel remorse and are not repenting for the murder of..."

"No, I'm not remorseful...." Helios interrupted him but he seemed to have something stuck in his throat. He stopped mid-speech as the power of order focused on him to prevent him from saying what he wanted to say next. He used his divine sense to communicate and he easily shrugged the power off and continued. "No, I'm not remorseful Zernon."

The Celestial Supreme's frosty face couldn't get any colder. "I see. You are on the side of the hidden god. That's how you were able to become a transcendent. Is that who is giving you your confidence? Your father is also one of them. He betrayed me. I knew he had made plans against me but I didn't think he will go this far."

Helios's words showed his allegiance. It is also a message to him to send the best that he can send. It didn't help that Helios simply smirked at him.

Zernon nodded gravely. He said, "Prepare yourself."

He returned to his divine kingdom immediately. Then he ordered the remaining 30% of his church's forces to apprehend Helios. He is bringing out the best of his forces for this expedition. He also announced a divine council meeting. The gods had dispersed when he suddenly left their meeting and didn't return to them. Even so, the gods arrived immediately and no one mentioned his abrupt departure from the last meeting. No one wants to get on the bad side of the Celestial Supreme right now. It was then that all of them noticed something.

Back To Aeternus.

Far away in another plane of existence. The 541st plane of the abyss to be exact.

There is a fortress within the domain of high-rank demons. In that fortress is a pillar more than 1,000 meters. On this pillar is a black statue. The details on the statue are sharp and create a vivid image of a thin but muscular entity.
