11 Chapter 10: Revenge Is Sweet

{AN: I asked in the first chapter a vital question which pov do you prefer 3rd pov or 1st pov, and most of you only focused on the dumb gender thing. Not that I could have expected anything else. Let me put it out there this is not harem fanfic, as you could see from the tags. As for the gender of the Nemean lion, it will be both male and female since there'll be two of them, Poseidon's own, which he'll be fighting in this chapter, and Sairaorg's one, which Heracles will kill during his Labours. While Poseidon's lion will be the female, they will NOT be in a sexual relationship, if anything. It will just be a big brother little sister bond, or father-daughter bond.

As for the whole harem thing, it will NOT happen in this fanfic, maybe in my DC fanfic but not this, so please stop insisting on it. As for romance of any kind, there won't be any until the Titanomachy war. Oh, and I am also planning on adding the tragedy tag. I'll be writing this chapter in 1st pov only, so tell me if you prefer it or 3rd pov.}

Poseidon's pov

"Ahh, that feels much better now." I stretched as I came from out of the lake to think that it would manage to heal me up this good. I looked at where the wounds were on my chest and stomach; there isn't even a scratch left behind.

"Now to check if my divinity is still working."

*Krrriiick Crackle* *Neigh!* *Klopp* *Klopp* *Klopp*

I held my left hand out, and a small ice figurine of a stallion appeared above it and started galloping. Why did I even make a horse? Something like a bird would be better.

"So it's working again seems as if the negation wears off after a while. It was probably faster for me given that I was in my domain." Now it's time for me to go find that overgrown cat.

"It's been a while since I've done this two months, to be exact." I close my eyes and searched for Hades's divinity signature since the cat was hunting him. Why is it taking so long? Apart from me, he's the only one here who awakened his divinity.

"Tch, where the hell is h- oh, there he is." It's spiking guess he already encountered the cat; there's also another divinity signature there. Did that idiot teach those three how to awaken their divinity?

"I didn't tell him that he could tell them... but I also didn't tell him that he couldn't Tch." Well, they'd have to eventually learn it at some point since I need to absorb their divinity as well, and I also didn't want to teach them, so it's a win for me.

"Now to lock my divinity on to their location and."

*Whoosh*

"Seems I arrived just in time." Whiskers was on the side that Hestia and the other two were on, which seemed to make Hades cautious, and whiskers noticed this as well.

"Bad move there, Hades, never let an enemy know your weakness."

*Grrr*

Luckily for you, it isn't interested in them, or unlucky depends on how you look at it. However, this message that whiskers sent seemed to get across to Hades, given that he immediately made gigantic gold and platinum spears.

The next thing I know, whiskers is running around like a cat being chased by dogs; well, with them being locked on to it, it doesn't have a choice.

"But still that Hades can actually fight well. It's impressive….but still not better than me."

But why isn't it taking the fight seriously? Why is it holding back on him but went full-on savage on me?

"Tch, it doesn't matter; at least I'll get information about it, and I'll be able to find a weakness. Oh, it went and messed up there." The lion leaped in the air to dodge Hades's attack. Hades did the obvious thing and took advantage of Whiskers vulnerable state; he launched all the spears he made at it.

They surrounded Whiskers in a circle, then they all attacked simultaneously, hoping to turn it into a pincushion.

That hope was crushed rather quickly as Whiskers came out of the assault with only minor scratches on it, which were healed soon, so its fur is tough and a healing factor, but unlike its claws, its coat can't negate divinity. Good to know.

"Oh, it's pissed off. Well, that's what you get when you play with your food." It seems Hades is still stuck in his stupor from it coming out unscathed this is gonna end badly for him. Whiskers had its back legs muscles bulging with power, ready to lash out at Hades.

*Fwoosh*

A fireball the size of a baby's fist came from the direction where the goddesses were, and, of course, the one responsible for it was Hestia.

"Idiot." The fireball didn't even leave a mark on Whiskers fur, but it still enraged it even more. It rushed at her with a speed that it hasn't shown to them before, the same speed it used against me when it ambushed me. It raised its claws about to bring it down on her.

"No, you don't." I raised my right hand and made a swiping motion to the left simultaneously. Demeter's body was thrown in front of Whiskers's attack instead.

"Lookie, here my blood manipulation works just fine." Guess my water manipulation got a bit stronger after my beat down.

I couldn't let it hurt Hestia from what I pick up from her divinity earlier. It was some sort of healing, and you know that you might as well just die immediately during a fight if the healer is hurt.

"DEMETER!!" This bitch could actually replace Lydia as the banshee in Teen Wolf. She was soon to be silenced as Whiskers took a chomp out of her; at least, that's what I thought.

"AHHHHHHH!!!"

Did Hestia freeze up? Guess I'll be stepping in sooner than I thought or not. I sensed a massive amount of divinity building up, and I look at Hades and what I saw was extraordinary. Though I could do it if I wanted to. It was a ginormous diamond spear with a massive pool of divinity in it.

"Die."

Any sane person or thing would try to dodge an attack like that, but instead, Whiskers took it as a challenge and went at it head-on. Then, at the last second, just when it was about to collide with the spear, it jumped and transformed into half the size of the spear, which was 25 metres.

It raised its claw to clash with the spear when they collided; shockwaves went off that blew everything away well except for me.

When the dust cleared, Whiskers's battered and torn body revealed itself, which began to heal muscle fibre by muscle fibre.

"No...impossible."

Seeing this completely crushed Hades; of course, it did. He put all his might in that last attack.

"ROOOOAAAAR!!" Whiskers gave a mighty roar that showed its dominance and victory. It rushed at Hades and was about to devour his head.

"Well, I guess it's better to be late than never showing up." Besides, I already had a way to defeat it; I figured it out when Hades assaulted it in the air.

I raised my hand and fist in the direction in which Whiskers was in.

*Craaccck!* *Craaccck!* *BOOOOM!*

Whiskers was sent flying and crashing into debris from its fight with Hades; blood was leaking from its mouth when it stopped.

"Now, now, I can't let you eat him…." I say to Whiskers as I looked at the distraught Hades.

"Not after he provided me with such good information."

"P-Poseidon, you're here!" I saw the light of hope come back into Hades's eyes.

"Don't look at me like that...it's creepy." Usually, when someone tells a person they're creepy, they react negatively, but it seems that isn't the case for Hades. Instead, his eyes and expression just brightened more.

"It really is you p-please defeat it." But, of course, he fainted right after he said that.

"Arggh, why the hell do you have to put your hope in me."

"Grrrr!" Well, I got a date waiting for me. I'll have to hold back, meaning no flashy space manipulation; it will be my trump cards during a fight can't let anyone see me using them. It's most likely tired from its battle with Hades.

"This will be over before you know it. So bring it….you big pussy." It came rushing at me, but before it could reach near me, I activated timestop.

Everything around me froze, but it seems that this wasn't going to work on it as the area around its claws began forming cracks. Doesn't make sense. I waste my divinity on it then. My timestop finally broke as its body began to move again.

*Bam* *Craack* *Boom*

I didn't let the opportunity go as I appeared above its head and delivered an axe kick to it while using quakes.

*Bam* *Craack* *BOOM!*

Then, before it could recover, I strike it with a hammer fist to its head; the two simultaneous attacks drove its gigantic head into the ground forming a massive crater.

"You're probably wondering what's happening to you. How come your almost impenetrable fur isn't doing a thing to protect you. That's simply because it can't. Your outside might be robust, but your insides are as soft as pudding, and what I'm using to attack you are quakes caused by vibrations, and with your body being solid, it's the best medium for my attacks. As the tremors pass through your fur, they simply get stronger and destroy your organs once they reach them." I really should stop monologuing. I sound like a typical Saturday morning villain.

*Grrahhh* Whiskers began to vomit blood, and you could also see bits and pieces of his stomach in it.

"Submit." I changed my mind about killing it with an ability like that I could do well with it as my familiar.

"ROOOAAAR!!" But first, I have to beat it into submission.

As it came rushing towards me head-on, blood was leaking from its skin. Has it hit its healing limit already? Here I thought this fight would be more of a challenge.

"I guess revenge is all I thought it would be blissful. Blood bind." I just now came up with a technique by using the blood of Whiskers; I bind it, which stopped it in its tracks.

*Crash* *Thud*

It fell, and the momentum from its run brought it right at my feet.

"To think that you mutilated me only a few hours ago.Tch."

*Bam* *Craack* *Boom* *Craack* *Boom* *Craack* *Boom*

I continued to beat it even when its body became disfigured; I didn't stop until it mysteriously started glowing.

The glowing was bright enough to make me cover my eyes when it stopped. What revealed itself was a girl around thirteen fourteen with blue eyes and long, wavy vermilion colored hair, red markings under her eyes, and a pronounced canine tooth.

Most males back in my world and this world would say she's cute, not that she isn't but.

*Bam* *Craack* *Boom* *Bam* *Craack* *Boom*

I hit her, Whiskers two more times in the face for good measure that cute little canine tooth that she had went flying out; her eyes were black and blue, and her lips were swollen.

Her whole face was bloodied if anyone saw this, they'd think that I threw ketchup on her face. Revenge is really sweet.

"P-Poseidon, thank you." After a few seconds more of me beating whiskers Hestia finally awakened from her stupor and came running up to me and offering her thanks.

"I didn't do it for you."

"I know but thank you nonetheless."

"Tch, You awakened your divinity right. Then you should probably go heal your sisters."

"H-h-how will I do that?" She looked around at them and asked, distressed as she finally remembered about them.

"He'll show you. You're awake, right Hades."

"Y-yes." As they walked off towards where Demeter and Hera are, Hades turned around and looked at me.

"I'm sorry for the way I've been acting towards you, brother." He actually apologized; that's surprising.

"That's ok..... Hades, there isn't a problem with wanting to become powerful and surpass me. Just don't be arrogant about it." But, of course, there's a problem with wanting to surpass me; it will never happen.

"Thank you Poseidon. What about it…her?"

"I'll take care of it; go help Hestia now."

"Argh." Whiskers started groaning pain in its sleep. I guess you'll become my familiar, huh.

3 hours later

"Thank you for letting us come with you, Poseidon. Right Hera." Both Hestia and Demeter said while they sat at the shore of my lake.

"Tch, yeah whatever," Hera replied lowly under her breath.

"It doesn't matter to me where you go as long as you don't step foot in my lake."

"Tch. Why do you have claim over it!" This banshee, I should silence her here.

"Hera, shut up!" Demeter reprimanded her, which is weird. I thought they were two peas in a pod.

"That's because it is mine. If you want it, you can fight me for it." She backed down immediately after I said that.

"Now, what should I name you." I looked down at the little girl holding on to my pants.

"How does Whiskers sound."

"Grrr!"

*Bam*

"Don't growl at me. Hmm, oh, I know. Since the other Nemean lion name was Regulus which means prince, how about Regina, which means princess."

*Purr*

"That's my little princess." I say as I rub her head.

This world doesn't seem like it will be that bad after all.
