" Senjustsu: Crimson Barrier Formation"

*Bzzzzzz. Bzzzzzz*

Kurama, Kuroka and Koneko used Senjutsu to make Kurama's Special Crimson Flame Barrier. They made two. One for Isaiah and one for Tiamat

*Shhhhhh*

Rose enveloped the inside with purple mist from Dimension Lost

" Holy Nail Cage" Meredith yelled out.

Nails the size of a person started to appear then cross each other and fuse. Layer by layer the cage was formed.

" Water Barrier" Ingvild used her Satan Class power to make a Water Barrier. SHe froze the outermost layer. Keeping it mostly water on the inside to disperse the force

"Gasper, shall we" Misaki smiled and Gasper nodded.

""Shadow Cage!"" Both of them slammed their hands on the ground. Countless Shadow tendrils started to rise, wrapping around the ice. Then the shadows solidified. A net enveloping the Ice.

Asia, Valerie, Veldora and Xenovia just stood to the side

"Do you think this will hold them?" Xenovia asked as she looked at the multi-layered barrier.

"No" Asia shook her head

"But it should stop their power from causing too much damage and announcing to the world that we got stronger," Veldora said with a grin

"We can only wait and see" Valerie stood still as she carefully eyed the barrier's

~ Tiamat Pov

"Mother. I have tried communicating with you before, but that was through the hosts of Annihilation Maker. This time I am holding you in my hand. Please give me your blessing"

I pressed the orb to her chest. It easily sunk in.

*THUMP*

My heart..

*THUMP. THUMP. THUMP*

Its burning.

My aura spiked. I was forcefully shifted in my true form

The power I finally stabilized exploded. Isaiah was right It directly threw me into the next level.

But it was more than that. I felt ... complete. Like something that was taken and was suddenly returned.

And then.. I felt her... my mother. Her warmth enveloped me. She was smiling at me.

For the longest time. I have tried learning Live and Creation magic. So that I could feel closer to her. But I could never even begin with the basics. Many mocked me for my failures, so i burned them alive. Eventually, I gave up.

But now. I felt it. I feel Life.

It was different. Completely different from my Fire, Chaos and Karma powers.

It felt.. like water actually. Soft yet strong. Flowing, easy to shape yet stubborn.

Water was life. A force that could bring life and end it.

It all began with Water and without it there is no Life.

This was my mother's power. The power of the Dragon Goddess Tiamat. The Primordial Goddess of the Sea.

But now. Now it's my power.

I raised my head and Roared!!

~ Team Pov

"ROOAAARRRRRRRR!!!"

"WHAT THE HELL MAN!" Dino buckled under the force of her roar

"My ears ~nyaa"

"It hurts"

Kuroka and Koneko held their ears.

"Keep it steady!!" Kurama yelled out as he pushed more of his reserves in the barrier

"How is she doing this?" Meredith grit her teeth, her Holy Nails were shaking from the force

"This is the power of those who stand among the strongest in this world." Misaki said with awe in her voice

*BRRRRRRRRR*

The barrier started to shake even more.

"This Aura!" Rose yelled out "It's Divine Energy!"

Jaws were dropped. A realization washed over all of them.

Tiamat wasn't just getting a power boost. She was ascending into a Goddess

"Bullshit. I call hacks!" Dino yelled out

"HAHAHAHA!" Veldora yelled out at the top of his lungs "Unbelievable. After Milenia, There is finally another one. Another Dragon ascending to Godhood."

"Ehh? Does this mean she will become like those two?" Misaki said in a confused voice

"No." Kurama stopped her thoughts right there

Rossewisse noded"Those two are called Dragon Gods because it's the only title that fits them. Technically they aren't even Gods. They are living embodiments of their concepts. They literally can't be killed. They will just form again after a few centuries. Gods are those who can gather faith and get stronger through it"

Kurama continued "For Tiamat, it means that she has become like Odin, Zeus and the rest, a Chief God. Since the Mesopotamian Pantheon is extinct. She can create her own now"

Everybody kept quiet. Thinking about how this would affect their group. But one thing was for certain. Things just got a lot more complicated.

Inside the barrier, Tiamat started to glow as water gathered around her. Each drop sparkled. It all headed to her neck and started to condense. Slowly condensing into a crystalized drop. forming a necklace

Her Divine Symbol that she acquired through her mother. Her new Domain. But next to the water drop on both sides two more symbols formed. On the right was a symbol with 'eight arrows in a radial pattern. Going from the center, outwards. The Symbol for Chaos'

(Chaos= https://rlv.zcache.de/chaos_symbol_runder_aufkleber-r4c7d2c9a604d4cc7ba39e93e6bb718d4_0ugmp_8byvr_736.jpg)

On the left was a symbol with many knots intertwined together. Endless knots symbolize the interlinking of cause and effect, a karmic cycle that continues eternally. The symbol for Karma.

(Karma=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/14/EndlessKnot03d.png)

But they were weaker than the Water Drop. Those two were the Concepts that she has studied and refined over the course of her life. They were powerful but not strong enough to qualify as a Domain. Not yet.

Just by forming even in an incomplete state means Tiamat isn't that far off from making them into a Domain.

~ MC POV

The barrier shook.

Looks like Tia did it. But this feeling. I felt ti from Thor. Divine Energy.

Is Tia becoming a Goddess? For real?

Hahhahha. Talk about a power boost. This is overkill. Not just anyone can become a god.

Breaking through Trancended Class and ascending to Godhood are two different things.

Even when someone breaks through and ascends, they just become a nameless God without any domains. There are thousands and thousands of Gods in the Hindu pantheon. But most of them are High-Class.

The only way a nameless God to survive is to join a pantheon and spread his name to gather faith and hopefully form a domain.

Tiamat went above and beyond. Not only did she become a goddess she also got her Domain right away. And judging by the energy levels I'm getting. It's an insanely strong one.

Well, I can't just let my girl get stronger than me. It's time for me to pick up the pace.

"Celestial Forge. Balance Breaker." (A better name for his Sacred Gear)

Soul Reaper. x?

Hundreds of swords were launched at the bodies. Impaling them.

Tear in Frenzy. 'Ruri'iro Kujaku' (Azure Peacock)

BANKAI

"Bloom. Rosa Blanka"

Countless black thorn vines sprouted from the grounds, they formed a dome over me. Vines formed from the dome and pierced the grunts.

Even without piercing them. This dome slowly absorbs their power. Feeding it to me.

I slowly absorbed it in my reserves.

They might not be that strong. But there are a lot of them. Their magic and life force.

Every being that has reached this level has a main Concept.

And I already know mine. It was this one from the start. My concept is Sword. Anything and everything that has to do with Swords.

I could feel it. Bit by bit I was attacking the imaginary barrier that was stopping me.

I decided to hold back. And let their power and lifeforce fill me up.

I focused and compressed the energy. And let go

*BOOOM.*

Immediately I go max output on my Demonic Energy and Touki

*BOOOM BOOOM*

MY energy levels were rising. But It wasn't as fast as I needed it to be.

Come on damn it!

The power rush started to slow down.

FUCK YOU

Boosted Blade ( or OverBlade for a cool name. Idk)

I stabbed myself in the gut. To think I would have to rely on some stupid self-harming moves

[Boost. Boost. Boost]

My energy levels that were about to stop got a much-needed tailwind.

With one last push.

*BOOOM!*

I hit something. I felt it... Did I do i-

*CRACKK!!!*

It was as if lightning had exploded in my head. My mind stopped working. My body was burning. My vitality overflowing. Each cell was getting saturated. With energy from god knows where.

Fuck. Getting blurry.

This was.. not.. according to plan.

*Thud*

~Asgard (Norse Realm)

"Hmm." Odin looked at a certain direction

"What's wrong Father?" Thor asked in a curious voice

They were all gathered for a family dinner. Even Loki was there.

"A new Chief God Appeared" Odin answered simply

"Hoo" Freya raised an eyebrow

Loki leaned forward "Do you know who it is?" he had a bit of mischief in his tone

Odin shook his head "There must be barriers protecting him or her. I just felt it because I am the Chief. We know when one of us is born or dies"

( A/N Dimension Lost saves the day)

"Well I hope they're strong" Thor smiled as he chugged his drink

"Just don't cause trouble Thor" Freya sighed

That started a back and forth argument, but all of them ignored the calculating look on Loki's face

~Mount Olympus.

Zeus frowned "Tsk. Another Chief God showed up"

"Really. Well, that hasn't happened in a few centuries. Espeicaly after most of the Pantheons died out" Hera said calmly

"The last thing we need is a new pantheon to start gathering faith" Zeus threw her a glare which she ignored.

~Realm of the Dead. Hades Terotory

A fury was reporting the news that was spreading around Olympus

Hades calmly nodded and sent it away "A new Pantheon will form soon. I need to wait and see where they stand. If they interfere with my plans. They will need to be eliminated"

~ Takamagahara (Shinto Realm)

Amaterasu felt it just as the other Chief Gods did. But she merely smiled

"Interesting. A new Pantheon after all this time. This should shake things up a bit"

~ Hindu Pantheon.

The Trimurti. The three most powerful gods of the Hindu Pantheon.

Brahma the Creator. Vishnu the Protector. Shiva the Destroyer

They share the Chief God position.

"Hmm?" Brahma stirred, something disturbed his meditation.

"Hoo~. A new Chief God. It's been so long that I almost forgot this feeling."

*Bzzz*

Two illusionary figures formed next to him. Communication magic in the form of holograms.

" Bishnu, Shiva, you felt it as well I assume" Brahma smiled at them

"Indeed" Vishnu noded

"Yeah~" Shiva yawned "It disturbed my nap, who do you think it was?"

"I have no idea. They were well hidden" Brahma shook his head

"Well it is none of our concern if they come. I will protect us like always " Vishnu turned off his 'call' and disappeared, causing Shiva to shake his head

"He really needs to get laid. He is too serious. See ya later Brahma~" Shiva waved at him and ended his 'call'.

Brahma sighed, "Well back to meditating"

~ Indra's Mountain

"What do you mean you lost them?! Those were Three Longinuses!!" Indra's power shook the entire mountain

Son Wukong only scratched his head and sighed. " Look just use your Divine Power and go through my memories of the event. Explaining it would be difficult"

Wukong lowered his mental defenses and allowed Indra to read his memories.

Which Indra did without any hesitation. Indra saw it all. The way the Hero Faction was defeated. The way Wukong was stalled. The strength of Isaiah's team.

A few moments later, both of them came back to reality with a splitting headache.

Indra's face was red 'How!'

'How does he KNOW?! The war between me and Shiva is in the future. I only know of it because of my Divination. So where did he get this information!'

"Not a word to anyone about this. Am I clear "Indra stared down at Wukong who only nodded and then left

Fine. he wants a nonaggression pact? I'll give it to him. But when the opportunity arises I'll go there personally and help whatever enemy manages to create a good opening.

I'll personally tear that little bastard's throat out

~ Biblical Faction. Heaven.

Michael was sitting on his Father's chair when the system started beeping.

"What now" he facepalmed before he looked at the screen. It took a second read for him to understand what the system was picking up on.

"Not good" he immediately started making a few calls.

A second later his siblings Gabriel, Uriel and Raphael entered the room.

"Why have you called us brother? Has something happened?" Gabriel says in her calm innocent voice

Uriel and Raphael only raised an eyebrow at him.

Michel pointed at the screen before he started to type something on his phone

" Is this true?" Uriel looked at the screen with a shocked expression

Gabriel just gasped as she covered her mouth with her hands

and Raphael facepalmed "Great. A new Pantheon right as we were trying to make peace with everybody. This is not good. A battle between Pantheons is imminent. Especially if this new Chief God is strong."

" I fear the same. I have contacted the Alliance. This will need to be discussed in further detail, I only hope this new Pantheon isn't out for blood. That is the last thing we need right now" Michael sighed, something that he has been doing a lot lately.

It's good that Angels can't fall from stress. Or he would have become a Fallen decades ago.
