Chapter 1323 Among Us.
They were surprised by the claim and also perplexed. The Celestial of War asked, "What do you mean by Malekite is dead? She is alive and well. For a low-god, she is impressive to be able to survive till today."
Another god added, "That's true. Her kingdom of spores is still standing strong against the infection. The Malekites are too united and loyal to her. They didn't fall into panic at all. They are defending their territory with determination.
The gods looked around to find Malekite and use her presence to deny the claim that she was dead but they couldn't find her presence in the communication channel.
It prompted someone to ask, "Speaking of which, why is Malekite not participating in this meeting? Does she not know how important this is?"
The Celestial of Knowledge explained, "Malekite is not here because the Celestial Supreme told me not to invite her and some other gods."
Then the Celestial of Knowledge said to the Celestial Supreme, "You are the Supreme Celestial but I don't think it is a good idea to exempt some gods from this meeting. These are dire times. It is not a good time to play politics. We all need to join our hands together if we want to overcome this plague."
The gods murmured in agreement but many of them made sure not to let the Celestial Supreme hear what they said. Only Celestials were courageous enough to express their disatifaction but few of them cared enough about Malekite and some weak gods to do so.
But the Celestial of knowledge cares so he continued, "You said you would give me an explanation for your request. I think now is a good time for it. I'm sure many other gods are as curious as I am about the reason why you would alienate Malekite and the other gods."
They are truly curious as to why the Celestial Supreme would be out to get Malekite. Politics is not a new thing amongst gods. But they don't think a low god is worthy of being targeted by the most powerful god.
The Celestial Supreme decided to make things clear. She said, "I will repeat what I said. There is no more Malekite. Malekite is dead. Even though the domain of spores is still present, her divine soul is no more. Someone else is masquerading as her."
As if that wasn't shocking enough, She continued, "And this occurred on the day that the Will of the plane determined that there is a threat that must be addressed in the plane."
Others didn't know about the selection of the child of the plane. It has been a long time ago that there was a child of the plane. It was with the help of that child of the plane that she was able to merge the divine plane with the main power so she is very familiar with children of the planes.
But even if that didn't happen, she is certain of her conjectures because of two major reasons. The first reason is that she is the Celestial Supreme so she noticed the awakening of the will of the plane and its selection of a child of the plane.
This is also why she knows that Malekite is dead. As the Celestial Supreme, the ascension of a new god and the death of a god cannot escape her notice.
The second major reason she isis certain of her conjecture is also the reason why she knows exactly who the child of the plane is. This reason is that the child of the plane is her son.
A demigod of hers is the child of the plane. There is no way she wouldn't know this even if she were not the Celestial Supreme. It was her son that confirmed her thoughts about the threat in the plane and the possible death of Malekite.
A Celestial asked her, "You have made some bold and wild claims. As bold as they are, I am willing to believe them since these are strange times with strange things happening. But if Malekite is dead, who is masquerading as her?"
The Celestial Supreme was prepared for that question. So she answered immediately, "I suspect it to be a sentient disease. It is the disease that is spreading about. She might have been infected by it or she might have created it but it backfired against her."
"I am inclined to believe in the latter. She has been experimenting with how to improve her race so she might have created something disastrous. Malekites are currently harmless but they used to be fungi and fungi are terrifying diseases for mortals. The fact that her race is currently sentient and harmless doesn't mean they can't regain the infectious properties of their past."
She went on to explain, "There are two possibilities. The first one is that the disease is not a god that's why you didn't sense any divine traces. The other option is that the disease is Malekite. She is a Primogenitor after all. Maybe she has found a way to break the shackles of her existence through her godhood and returned to her primitive and infectious stage."
The gods were shocked by the options. Even Legion-7 was surprised when he heard what was said.
He chuckled to himself. "So this is why Malekite and the gods that I absorbed were not invited to this meeting."
Malekite and all the gods that he killed secretly weren't invited. It was his recent target that was invited to the meeting. He didn't know about the meeting until he grafted the godhood of this high god.
Apparently, the silent death of the gods didn't escape the notice of the Celestial Supreme even though he kept their souls.
"It must be because I hate their godhood. The disappeared godhood can't escape her notice. But what about the gods that I kept intact? How did she know that they were dead and brainwashed? Is the Celestial Supreme that capable or did someone tell her?"
