The mind of the queen swooned. She is just a normal queen. She might be a little hardworking and unsatisfied with her station in life and wants more power but the talk of demigods fills her with fear. Demigods mean gods and gods mean danger. If she goes along with this entity then she won't die of old age while her descendants fight over her things. It is more likely that she will be killed by the gods or the unlikely chance that she might actually become stronger. Either way, her destiny will change.
"What am I to do to lure this demigod here?" She asked.
The Tree father answered. "First, you become a demigod."
The queen perked up after hearing that. Becoming a demigod is not the same as becoming a transcendent but it is something good too. It means access to divine power. It means she can increase her control mechanism and become able to use those disobedient royal guards that she has been keeping for future use.
'I never thought I'll ever be able to use them again. Maybe dying while your queenly descendants fight over your things is overrated after all. If this is what I get for just joining this entity, then maybe I will get to become a transcendent after all.' The queen thought in anticipation.
Her dead hopes and dreams began to burn again. Becoming a demigod will extend her lifespan and make it easier to gather resources. Becoming a transcendent is not a hopeless dream anymore.
"I agree." She said wholeheartedly.
"Good. You should know that this is going to be dangerous but if you play your cards right and the situation favors you, then you will have the strength you seek."
The two of them began hashing out a plan. The plant spirit explained the situation to her and informed her of the danger. The queen agreed so they planned and began to prepare for an invasion. The queen increased the production of worker and soldier ants.
The plant spirit also helped to increase the strength of her troops. It gave some of its blood to the royal guards in service of the queen. The green glowing divine blood contains divine power and immense vitality. The royal guards grew stronger than they should be and even awakened their minds, but they still remained under the queen's control because their mind isn't strong enough to escape her control. The vitality in the blood helped their bodies to grow stronger but it had little effect on the strength of their minds.
Time passed as the colony got to work in preparation. The plant spirit was also preparing. It busied itself with producing a shiny crystal fruit. It took days and physical toil on the plant spirit but it finally finished with the fruit.
"Take this." The plant spirit plucked the fruit from its arm and offered it to the ant queen.
"With it, you will have your opportunity to fight for greatness. This is your final chance to refuse."
The plant spirit spoke while dangling the fruit at the queen. How could she say no to such a good thing? Every trepidation and fear that she had melted at the sight of the fruit. The ant queen directed one of the workers to retrieve the crystal fruit. The worker then brought it to her and fed her.
The plant spirit looked up and said, "It has begun."
It has already begun the moment the plant spirit plucked the crystal fruit. The Celestial Supreme noticed the fluctuation of pure divinity in the mortal realm immediately. He investigated and found the location of the fluctuations. Even if the ant queen refused to receive the fruit, a heroic quest would have been created for her head and the tree father would have still gotten his way.
'How admirable of a Celestial. He certainly will be a problem. I have sacrificed a lot. I hope this works.' The Tree Father thought to himself.
It is not normal for a Celestial Supreme to know so much about the happenings of the mortal realm like the god of order and justice. This sensitivity to change is because of the celestial supreme's domain of order. Order means control so order needs control. Control requires information and power.
So the god of Order has an edge over other celestial supremes in the aspect of surveillance due to the specialty of his domain. He has placed certain mechanisms all around the mortal plane to sense changes and acquire information about significant changes. He uses the information he acquires to have a tight hold over the happenings of the mortal realm. It is why the creation of a new god without his knowledge is hitting him so hard.
He used to know about things that no other god knows. He did discover the attempt to create a demigod while the other gods were clueless about it. The Celestial Supreme sent a scout to the ant mound and used the scout as an extension of his Influence to scan the ant mound. All it found was an ant queen trying to digest some divinity. He didn't see the plant spirit at all. He concluded that she was lucky to find divinity and is attempting to become a demigod.
It didn't matter where the ant queen got the divinity since the Celestial Supreme had the mortal realm scoured for divine items and confiscated unaccounted ones many years ago. There hasn't been any such attempt for many origin cycles but he accepts that he is not perfect and he can make mistakes. The queen getting one means he clearly missed one. Killing her will end the problem there and there.
But she isn't a threat. At least, she isn't a threat worthy of much attention. She is just a mana entity that will become a demigod at most. So he issued a heroic quest and specified the amount of help that the demigods can have. He made eliminating the ant queen into a game to entertain the gods.
