Chapter 1073 What Went Wrong.
The Origin god continued angrily. "And your belief that he is affiliated with the demon god is wrong. The first thing he did immediately after his death was to release the ghouls. He has personally killed two more Primogenitors apart from Marlinto at this moment while the ghouls have led to the death of four. Does that sound like something a secret spy for the demon god would do?"
She was shocked. "How come? How did he kill us then if he is not affiliated with the demon god?"
That is what she is most concerned about even now. They heard from the fountain of life that Ragnarok used a power similar to the domain of an Origin god to destroy the devil's pit.
But that power is only similar and the thought that a Warrog of less than a thousand years could have killed Marlinto is absurd hence her suspicions of foul play. Their death has not made things clearer. They can confirm that the domain is dangerous to them but it has only created more questions.
Someone couldn't take it. They asked, "Is that what you should concern yourself with right now? The ghouls have been released!"
Someone else said sarcastically, "But there is no need to worry too much. What you have done has only cost us the plane and all our descendants. What is there to worry about?"
Sure Ragnarok is too young to have the power that he has displayed. It is understandable to underestimate him or even suspect him of colluding with the demon god. But that doesn't excuse her behavior and its consequences. She was supposed to use her concept to subdue him. It should have worked since he wasn't an Origin god yet.
Her green brother came to her rescue, "I think she makes a good point. There is something suspicious about Ragnarok."
"It doesn't matter if she makes a good point. She failed and has thus doomed the plane. That's all that matters."
The brown brother also spoke, "Plans change. Our original plan was based on the premise that Ragnarok was weak. That changed when we actually met up with him. There were a lot of suspicious points about him. And besides, he attacked first. We had to defend..."
Someone interrupted, "He attacked first because you pressed him. You shouldn't have pressured him to come along in the first place. You were supposed to lure him to come with you."
The two sides began to argue. Both sides made good points. The original plan was to go there and take advantage of his fight with the Primogenitor. They were to help him by ganging up on Marlinto and killing the Primogenitor by using the day to their advantage. Then they were to convince him gently to come with them and join their side. Her life subjugating pollen was supposed to be very useful to achieve nonviolent persuasion.
They truly meant well about Ragnarok. Even if he was working with the demon god, the fountain of life would first try to save him and convert him into its representative. Then they would have strengthened him to the best of their ability. They would have given him a lot of living things and Vampires to kill for him to convert to death essence.
They planned to gain another Champion that would at least be able to keep Rinoz in check and would be firmly within the control of the fountain of life. But the Origin gods they sent to get him didn't play by the book when they got there.
The three Origin gods were fighting and killing the Familiars who were protecting the sleeping Vampires. Then all of the familiars dropped dead and their Vampire masters liquified to blood. That meant their Primogenitor, Marlinto, had died. She didn't believe that he truly did it on his own. She thought he was working with the Vampires to deceive them.
It is not a far-fetched suspicion considering that the source of Ragnarok's power is blood power. He even looks like a monarch. Are they to believe that he truly cut himself away from the demon god and is still using blood power to amplify himself? Or could it be a ruse to deceive them? She clearly chose to believe the latter. After all, even the realm lord was not so extraordinary himself.
The rest of the events that followed are history. Ragnarok killed the three of them and he broke the barrier that sealed the ghouls in revenge. The only people capable of such a thing were the Primogenitors who have become Monarchs and the Origin gods of the wood elves.
Only they could find where the ghouls were sealed in and have the strength to break the barrier that sealed them. No one in these two groups was crazy enough to do so. Not even the Origin gods. After all, they sacrificed a lot of their numbers to seal the ghouls the first time.
They made that sacrifice with the understanding that no one in their right or even unsound mind would go and release the ghouls. No one accounted for a disgruntled, crazy, cornered, desperate, and suicidal origin god-level powerhouse. No one could have imagined that such a powerhouse would come from the Warrogs either. But it happened. And now the plane is doomed.
The origin gods said their piece. They complained and assigned blame where it ought to be assigned. It is because they are really angry. It is not a pleasant feeling to lose where they grew up. It is not pleasant at all to see their descendants and their race massacred in droves. It becomes doubly hurtful when the plane is very important for the era of conquest.
Without the plane, they will have reduced influence in vying for resources and authority when the era of conquest comes. That's one of the most important reasons why they have resisted the demon god for so long.
They didn't want to give up their base and foundation without a fight? If they can't even protect their home plane, how then are they to acquire another base for the era of conquest?
