GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

1157 Lazy Overlords.

Every stage of the Stellos is different in physical form from the others but the variety that they bring to this assembly cannot compare to the variety that the other races account for. One can see plant people, beast people, and Stellos of different types as far as the eye can see.

There are more than 2 billion entities in this resistance force. And this is just from an hour of a call to arms. If they had more time, they would be able to assemble more people to defend the plane.

At the head of the resistance are the leaders of the plane and the strongest beings here. They are discussing the situation of the invasion.

A Stellos said, "I just got word that the stronghold on the ancient battlefield has fallen. The enemies will be here soon."

This Stellos looks like an elemental of fire but its fire is liquid so its figure seems to be formed from lava. It is a Stellos that became an Origin god through another path different from their innate divine ability.

"So fast?" A Dezu asked in surprise. "It has not been more than an hour since they attacked. How can they be so fast?"

The avatar of the Celestial Supreme sighed, "That is not surprising. I heard that the stronghold is not that strong."

The leaders of the other races kept quiet even though they agreed with what the Celestial Supreme said. They didn't look at the Origin god Stellos so that it wouldn't look like they are blaming him and his race for the calamity that has befallen them.

They don't know why the Supreme Beast race has attacked them. If they did, they would probably blame the Stellos. As it is, they don't even know what the Supreme Beast race is but they know why the stronghold fell so quickly.

The stronghold that is meant to protect the planar portal on the ancient battlefield is very weak. It is very weak because the strongest race in the plane was too peaceful and lazy to take defending the plane seriously. They didn't unite the other races despite being the strongest. They just slept around all the time.

The conflict between the races made it so that no single race could control the stronghold. Any race that controls the stronghold is not only responsible for protecting the plane, but they also control who leaves and enters the plane. That means whoever controls the plane controls the importation, exportation, emigration, and immigration of the plane. That is a lot of power for one race to have.

The races of the plane tried to control the stronghold together but the strife and conflicts made it impossible to do so. They were always fighting for benefits and sabotaging each other. So they decided to give the Stellos control of the stronghold.lightsnovel

The Stellos on the other hand didn't care about who was in charge. They were the strongest so they could do whatever they wanted regardless of whoever was in control. That's why they didn't join the other races in fighting for control of the stronghold.

The other races gave them control because they thought they would be impartial. They were right about that. The Stellos didn't care about what others were doing so they were impartial. They were too lazy to bother. They just wanted to sleep.

But that also meant that they were too lazy to be strict in the control of the stronghold and in its protection. That's why the stronghold was too weak to put up much of a fight. It fell in less than an hour of fighting despite the presence of a defensible fortress equipped with the best defense systems that they could buy.

lightsnοvεl The other races didn't care about the weakness of the stronghold in the past. They used it to their advantage for smuggling. They were even released when they were caught smuggling by the Stellos.

The Stellos were too accommodating. They don't like violence, stress, and noise so they were taken advantage of by the other races. Now it has come to bite them. So they can't point fingers now that they are reaping the repercussions for their negligence.

The Stelios origin god didn't say anything in the face of that silent accusation. He is the only origin god of his entire race here in the realm of high heaven. He is also the only Origin god in the whole plane so he has the highest authority.

The suppression of the realm on origin gods makes it so that Origin god-level Stellos can't sleep in the realm. That is too much to sacrifice to ensure the safety of their plane so all of them left the plane and the ancient battlefield. They thought nothing could threaten them so they didn't worry about an invasion. They were wrong.

Another leader asked the origin god Stellos, "When can Stellos reinforcement come?"

The Celestial Supreme shook his head and said, "It is not possible for reinforcement to come. The invaders have surrounded the plane with battleships and war fortresses. Nothing can leave or enter the plane even if the divine kingdom falls. A single person might be able to slip through but certainly not an army of origin gods."

The Origin god Stellos encouraged them, "Don't worry. We are currently negotiating with the leaders of the enemy. We just have to hold on till they come to an amicable agreement. And if their leaders don't know what's good for them, we will trample them."

The leaders became at ease at that. They have faith in the Stellos Origin gods. Their divine ability is tyrannical at that stage. Their divine ability is made up of just two laws, earth, and light, but it is so powerful that nothing can stand against them. They can cut through everything and every barrier.

The leaders spent the rest of the time discussing how they would defend the plane. They didn't have to wait long before their enemies came through the portal gate. The portal flashed briefly as the enemy soldiers came through. There were only three of them.
