As Circe led Constantine's group into her spa she turned to look at him directly with annoyance. It reminded him of his relationship with his older sister when they were kids. As she was the oldest, their parents put a lot of responsibility on her.
"Since you are my brother, who is your Father? I might as well know that."
"My Father's name is Maxamillion, he is a Legacy to Ares and Nike through his grandparents. As for me, let's just say that I am built differently from most Demigods and Gods. Just by my aura, you can tell I am more than a mere Demigod I suppose."
She nodded as she looked at him closely.
"I could tell. Trust me when I say that looking at you is kind of horrifying. To a god, you don't look like, this."
She waved with her hand pointing at Constantine. That got his attention as he wondered what he looked like.
"What do I look like?"
"Well, you are armored as you are here now, but when I look at you, I see you surrounded by a pitch-black Divine Aura swirling with poison and fire. I see you with six arms and three heads, and that image overlaps with you. Feels dangerous to be honest as I have no idea what the hell you are."
Vritra flicked his tongue as he heard that.
"Three heads you say? Constantine, it seems your Asuran transformation is yet complete. Maybe that is why you felt Lord Shiva was disappointed in you. You're yet complete."
"Asuran? You're telling me your part Asura?"
Constantine and Vritra both nodded. While still coiled around Constatine's neck, Vritra introduced himself.
"That is thanks to me, I am Vritra The Enveloper. A Dragon Asura if you will."
Circe paused as she heard Vritra say that.
"Who?"
Vritra shook his head as Hecate instantly knew who he was.
"Are you really that uninformed of other Pantheons?"
"Hey, I have kept to myself in the Sea Of Monsters for a reason. It isn't my fault. I do know what an Asura is though."
Constantine chuckled as he continued walking.
"In that case, you should do more research into other Pantheons. Maybe go start exploring the world again."
Circe shook her head as she was uninterested.
"No thank you, you can do that all you want, as for me I am fine here. Regardless of who Vritra is or what you are, I do have to say you two are quite odd to me. You two have separate souls from each other, yet your souls are deeply tied together.
I also have to say this Vritra, you might be the most terrifying Dragon I have ever met. Both of you I can say are frightening."
Medusa nodded.
"You got that right."
Circe was going to ask more questions, but rather than do that she waved her hand and opened a wall in her spa resort leading to her library.
"Here we are, it's where I research magical, make my potions, and create new spells. When I am not tending to the ladies who visit my island, I am here."
Vritra slinked off Constantine's neck and he pulled one of the books from the wall to him through telekinesis. He began flipping through it at rapid speeds trying to see what Circe had done with her potions.
"Oh, so that is how you did it. Transfiguration of the body, but not the mind. Ingesting the pig potion turns them into pigs. You didn't eat them did you?"
Circe shook her head in disgust.
"Gross. I dislike men, not enough to start eating them. I kept them as my cute round little pets. However, pigs were hard to take care of so I started turning them into Guinea Pigs. Easy to look after and better to care for."
Constantine waved his hands and he began to levitate the hundreds of books from the library. He brought them up to his face and through his thought acceleration spell he began flying through each spell book.
Circe crossed her arms as she watched him fly through her books one after the other quite impressed. Even though she didn't have a thought acceleration spell, she had never thought to need one.
However, seeing just how quickly he was reading through her books like this was quite impressive. In a matter of minutes he had read through the entire thing and then he closed his eyes and brought his hand up to his head.
He began to process the extra information on Magic, Potions, and Alchemy which he knew some basics on. He was more of a Blacksmith Enchanter than an Alchemist, but this could help him start making some more potions."
"Now that will be quite helpful, here for your troubles."
He aimed a hand into his shadow and from it a Magic Grimoire he had made on Dragon Deus magic. It was just the basics and it told one how to use calculations to control magic. He didn't like it, but it was quite versatile.
He tossed it over which she caught.
"What is this?"
"What me and Vritra know. Of course, that is just the basics, but that is all that I will give you now. We are going to leave as we are on a time crunch. Where are the Guinea Pigs?"
Circe closed the book and placed it on her desk.
"Fine, why are you so pushy?"
"I told you, I am on a time crunch. We can sit down and talk about stuff later when I am not busy."
Circe waved her hand and in front of them, a large cage appeared with several Guinue Pigs. The little round rodents began running around and making their little noises.
"Here, the entire crew of Black Beard. If you want to know which one is Black B-"
"I know which one he is, the big mean-looking one. Besides, I can feel his Demigod aura."
He took the cage in one hand and then he turned to Circe.
"I should be back in a few days, we can talk then at length since I think we will need it. Until then, Circe."
He didn't wait and teleported back onto his ship which was nearly docked. When he arrived on his ship he could feel his ship's Machine Spirit was much happier at the fact he was back.
'Glad to be back, now then taking that.'
He took Black Beard's flagship in the harbor, the Queen Anne's Revenge into his shadow. Even if he didn't need the ship, having that legendary ship as a collector's item would be cool.
"Alright then, let us leave."
Instantly, his ship began to turn on a dime in the ocean to make its way to Polyphemus' Island where the Fleese was located. Constantine planned to take over Plyphemus' Island and replace the Tree on which the Cyclops hung the Fleece with Satella's Evernight Oak Tree.
That would nurture the island and her tree which would let it grow far faster than before to protect the entire Sea Of Monsters which he would turn into his private territory. Satella would use the empowerment of the Golden Fleece to protect it with all the wards he would have to put in place.
As for Blackbeard and his Crew, he planned to recruit them as his pirates which he would set loose to plunder for him. For now, he placed the cage with the Guinne Pigs into his shadow where he had Artemis and Zoe.
Through magic, he put them in suspended animation so no time passed and they didn't experience mental torture from the darkness. Since today was the 28th of August, he only had 5 more days for his meet-up with Hecate so he was really on a time crunch.
Already his ship was locking in on the Island of Olyphemus so she started the propellers and the thrusters began to cut through the sea. As the Will Of The Dark moved through the Ocean, Medusa turned to him.
"So once you have the Fleece you will move Satella and her tree to Polyphemus' Island with the fleece?"
"Right, that thing will make her grow way faster and it should nurture her powers. As long as she is nurtured I am sure even with the distance, she should be able to control any of the trees that grow from the Acorns her tree produces.
I have some ideas and once I move her, I will also move my workshop to have a place where I can make any of the weapons or ships I need. Once Satella is here, and the fleece begins to nurture her, I am sure she will begin to truly grow massive and pull her weight."
As he finished speaking his ship began to communicate with him. While the island was still a decent way off, she could hit it with Balistic missiles.
"Hit the Island with three."
As he said three hatches on the ship opened it and from it, three enchanted missiles fired into the sky toward the island.

On the Island Polyphemus, the blind Cyclops and son of Poseidon tended to his flock of sheep around a tree with the Golden Fleece hanging from it. Thanks to the Fleece, the entire island was full of lush plants from trees, bushes, fruits, herbs, and more.
His sheep had a feast every day and they were massive as the smallest were the hippos from the fertility and Divinity coming from the Fleece. Polyphemus used it to feed his sheep with highly enriched plants making them extremely tasty to him.
Though as he tended to the sheep, the three highly enchanted Ballistic Missles accurately slammed into three corners of his island avoiding the tree with the Fleece. When the missiles landed they detonated with extreme force causing an earthquake as they erupted in black fireballs.
Polyphemus fell on his back as his Sheep began to scatter in terror.
"SHEEP NO RUN! DEMIGOD ATTACK!"
---
While the Cyclops panicked The Will Of The Dark began to move closer and closer to the island. Constantine smiled to himself as his eyes glowed a bright purple as he looked in the distance to the island.
He could see an ugly fat Cyclops running around trying to calm his panicking sheep. He crossed his arms as his ship continued to approach closer and closer at extreme speeds. The ship began to slow down as it began to approach the island.
This time he had no plans to teleport onto the island as he planned to ram his ship into it. He would then order his Undead to build a port where he would place his fleet. If he had a Flagship, he had to have a fleet to lay siege to Olympus and other Cities.
"Start slowing down so you can land on the beach."
As the ship got closer she began shapeshifting to form tank treads and change form to suit being on land as a mobile fortress. Seeing all that made Medusa think that sticking a bunch of souls in this ship was worth it.
She braced as the ship reached the beach and began to move forward on titanic tank treads.
"What can your ship not do?"
"Nothing that is what, now come on."
He walked forward and he jumped off with Solomon, Vritra, and Medusa who followed behind him. Once they were on the island, and the ship was on the island, she stopped waiting for him.
Constantine and his group then followed the Divinity of Fertility and Life coming from the Golden Fleece. By this point, Polyphemus had managed to calm most of his flock, but he was afraid he would be attacked again.
As he was mostly blind, he began to try to listen to his surroundings to see if he could find the intruders. However, he eventually began to hear Constantine's heavily armored footsteps.
"DEMIGODS!"
He charged in their direction with a heavy log as a club. Constantine waved his hand and his Shotgun appeared in his hand. He aimed it forward and he fired killing Polyphemus with a single shot.
Much like the rest of his weapons, that was a permanent kill meaning the world was now rid of Polyphemus the blind Cyclops. Constantine placed his gun on his back as he looked at the giant sheep. Some were carnivorous and they began to eat the Cyclops.
"Guess these are my sheep now."
He continued to walk forward until he reached the tree that Polyphemus had the Golden Fleece hanging from. The tree was vibrant and its leaves were full of colorful fruits and nuts of many kinds.
The Fertility and Life Divinities of the Fleece flow into the tree and island. By placing that Fleece on Satella's tree, he would have his own World Tree, and Satella would be like a goddess in power.
She would be able to guard the Sea Of Monsters and control any trees that were planted from her acorns.
"Time to get started, got to move Satella then plant her on this island. Once she is planted I will place the Fleece on her branches to have her receive its power. That will get her growing."
Medusa turned to him.
"Are you planning to mimic the Yggdrasil of the Norse?"
"Yes, as my blood was used to evolve her tree, I have a link so I will be the master of my own Tree of Life or World Tree. That will come with its benefits."
He waved his hand and he opened up a gigantic dark black Dragon Gate as he was going to be moving Satella from her spot on his ranch. He was sure once he planted her here and gave her the Fleece she would quickly become a titanic tree.
Though he would have to protect the Sea Of Monsters as he was sure Satyrs would be lured even more so my the Fleece. Good thing Satella would have her guards with the animals and monsters she would lure.
'Time to make my World Tree.'
