The spell tower groaned. "What is the world coming to? Are we to fear a furry now? Simulation or not, I think this is disgraceful to us paragons."
The immortal power said in agitation, "We will fear whatever furry that can incapacitate a speedster in moments and still try to kill the other one. Now shut up if you don't have anything useful to say "
That outburst silenced any more voices of dissent. They all began to take the situation seriously. They started by sharing their opinion of the situation one after the other.
The speedster said, "I think that it might be a mistake to have them roaming around the plane. If they are capable of becoming what this furry is then they are a threat that must be eliminated. We should wipe them all out when we get home."
He has already been traumatized by the short experience. A literal furry almost killed him and it killed the other speedster. They are not some normal paragons. Each one of them was specially selected for this event. The idea that a furry of any kind, real or not, can actually threaten them does not bode well for him.
The spell tower shut down that fear-mongering as soon as possible. "That's a stupid idea. We are not afraid of furries. We are a superior race that can never be overthrown. It can never happen. Now, let's focus on the threat they pose in this simulation."
The spell tower insisted. "But, a simulation can be based on the real world. If it is possible at all, then furries are a danger to us."
The black brute asked, "How will we wipe out all of them? They are very fertile because they are so weak. It will be a futile endeavor to try and eliminate every furry in the plane."
He actually sides with the speedster but he doesn't think that eliminating the furries is realistic or feasible.
The spell tower on the other hand is about to blow her lid. She yelled in frustration, "That is a preposterous idea that furries could ever challenge us. Nothing could ever challenge our supremacy as long as we have a child of the plane."
The speedster and the brutes have nothing to say against that. The will of their plane selects the immortal power that manages to kill all the other immortal power in the plane during their generation as the next child of the plane. And there's always a child of the plane present within the plane.
The competition for child of the plane starts as soon as the previous child of the plane ascends. During that time, every immortal power will be aware of every other immortal power and their location within the plane. The competition will only end when there's one immortal power left alive between the stages of transcendent and king of law on the plane.
The competition has become something of a tradition. It is a tradition that has ensured the supremacy of the Vipers over their plane. They faced invaders and successfully repelled them. Vipers cannot be overthrown as long as they have an immortal powerhouse that can fight Origin gods within the plane.
The speedster finally relented. "That's true. The reason why the gold-furred furry is a threat is because it is a child of the plane. That can not happen in the real world when there's already a child of the plane. There can be only a single child of the plane at a time."
He even sighed in relief. But the spell tower still won't have it.I think you should take a look at
"It doesn't matter if there's a child of the plane or not. I maintain that there's no way the Will of the plane will select a furry to be..."
She was interrupted.
"Shut up all of you." The immortal power shouted within the link. "Forget about conceptual problems and focus on the problem we have on hand. We are at risk of defeat and humiliation. If you've forgotten, we are currently being watched by our entire plane. A defeat here will not be taken lightly."
His rebuke hurt their pride. A peer shouldn't talk to them like that, but they have to admit that he is right. It is already bad enough that one of them has been incapacitated. It will be worse if they all face this furry and are defeated.
The immortal power continued. "Now let's focus on what we are up against. He has a divine crown and he has the title of child of the plane. He can't be taken lightly."
They all agreed on that point. Except for the usefulness of the divine crown.
"The divine crown is useless. That thing is weak so let's focus on his title alone." Someone added.
Their divine crown is weak because it has the combined power of 117 commander crowns as opposed to the one that Soverick has. Theirs is at best a match for the crown of the king which is the level of power that the lowest lieutenants of the battle sage monkeys have.
The immortal power shot down that proposition, "We don't ignore anything. We take this seriously and we take everything into account."
That paragon grumbled a bit about overreacting while another paragon asked, "What do you suggest we do?"
"Ylana should come here to assist us. That will bring up our numbers to 5 and it is very important that we have a magical expert on our side. It is clear that this furry is also very capable with spells." The immortal power suggested.
Ylana, the spell tower agreed, "That's a good idea. Why don't we all come and eliminate him once and for all?"
"Because we can't take the furries for granted anymore. It will be a bad idea if we focus all our top strength here and leave ourselves vulnerable in the other aspects. Someone has to guard our flag or we risk losing. We will look like fools if that happens."
"You're right." She admitted after thinking about it.
