Zernon became flanked by 5 helpers as he stared at Helios. Each Archangel is the equivalent of a Sovereign. Their presence renewed their presence.
He asked, "So what next? would kill me and take my position as the Celestial Supreme? Your father must be very proud."
Helios shook his head. "No. I already have what I came for."
He pointed to their surroundings. Zernon widened his eyes in realization. The entire army of the gods and the angels has been wiped out. The cloud of fire rain had continued to fall while they were fighting, it decimated everything on the battlefield, except for the forces that Zernon had held back.
But even the reserve forces were not spared. Zernon may have blocked the attack with the power of an exploding star but those behind him couldn't. That arc of heat and light sheared through his reserve forces and thinned their numbers. So only the Archangels that stood at the very back of the army are safe. Everything else is toast.
