Major Progress part 2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A.N Got stuff to do on Monday and Tuesday so I probably won't post the next chapter till late Tuesday or on Wednesday.

'Oracle, what's the best way to train my new divinity?'

'I believe the best way to do it is to first focus on the different aspects before combining them. For example, try to slow down, speed up and pause the time of objects then try to make your own personal storage like your inventory or work on bending the space around yourself. Then after you get proficient in that you can move on to things like large scale time freeze or short distance teleportation. From my calculations you won't have enough power to get out of here until this divinity reaches A lvl and even then may still be difficult.'

'Thanks Oracle.'

Before jumping right into my next training session I decided I need to stretch my legs, I have been laying down in the same position for over a decade. As I stand up completely, I make my way to the 'cave' entrance. It's still impossible to see anything a few feet past the entrance so I decided to add more light. I walk out towards the direction of the acid, when I finally feel my feet touch it, I stop, then summon my flames in both palms. I then walked along the edge placing my flame every few feet to keep the surroundings lit. Then I walked along the edge of Kronos' stomach lining doing the same, past the entrance to my current home and until I met with acid. Complete the narrow path 10 meters long and maybe 2 meters in width.

Now there is no chance of one of my siblings missing this place. I decided I should get started. So I go to look for a chunk of meat that is nearly dissolved already. After finding it, I go back inside to sit against the wall with the meat sitting in front of me. I then focus on feeling my space/time divinity, after locating it I try to just focus on the time aspect of it. Afterwards I decided to experiment with it. Focusing on the meat in front of me I first just tried to will the meat time to go back. I figured it was at least worth a try. Since that failed I started the next experiment. I channel my time divinity into my right arm, after I focus back on the meat and while turning my hand counter clockwise. It did nothing at first but just when I stopped turning my hand a chunk of the meat reappeared and I knew I succeeded.

Now I'll first train this then focus on space, so many cool things I can do with a space divinity.

[2 years later]

After 2 years I was able to make some progress in my time divinity. I can freeze time within a certain distance of me, I'm not entirely sure due to the limited space where I can actually see. I was only able to test it by cupping acid in my hand and throwing it up into the air. I can rewind and fast forward the time of the meat now, making them whole, dry chunks of meat. The only thing is that I can't affect my own flow of time. Like I can't slow myself down or speed myself up in any way. I believe that when I advance a level it will be possible. So I decide that after working on space separately for a bit as well, when I use them together again I'll start practicing on myself, at least until my siblings get here.

So with my space divinity there are a lot of things I want to try. Could I make the space around a person as heavy as the sky? Could I manipulate the space around me to reflect light? Could I do telekinesis? So many more questions and possibilities. I first start by covering my whole body in my divinity. Then I simply try to make the space around me just a little heavy and I immediately feel some pressure weigh me down. Then I tried to make the space around me lighter but nothing happened. I guess I still need to train that part of it, but gravity control, check! And just like this I went on doing test after test just seeing what different things I could do, not yet training anything. After months of running tests I have to say this divinity is even better than I thought. I have minor gravity manipulation, reflect light and pretty much anything else I want as the space within 5 meters of me is under my complete control. Like a mini domain. I can walk on the acid and in the air by making the space under me constantly solid, it takes a lot now but after training it'll be easier I hope. I can also float, yes float not fly as I still haven't figured out how to move sideways without relying on my 5 meter domain. To use gravity to move side to side is too sudden and uncomfortable, so I can only float for now.

Jumping into the training part now I start to work on making my foot holds. I simply go walk onto the acid then start ascending with each step onto nothing. I do this a few times while walking, just float down when I feel I'm about to run out of juice. After I can finally do that a few times without tiring, I decided to step it up. I do the same thing as before, go onto the acid then start ascending with each step onto nothing but this time I started at a full sprint. It started of rough and I had to constantly save myself from plummeting into the acid after every misstep but it was worth it as over the next couple of weeks I became a master at air running and it was pretty fun, even though I can't see shit when I'm away from my camp. To know that I'm walking on air still amazes me a little. After getting good at air/water walking I decided to start working on my domain. I don't have any telekinesis, I can only control things like I do if they are within my domain. The thing I want most is to expand it. If I can get it to be at least 30 meters. Then there's a high chance of opponents walking in, at 5 meters I could stop things from hitting me even the sword of an opponent but if I can get a larger domain that would be for the best.

'Oracle, is there a way to expand my domain of space?'

'Actually there is a reason for only 5 meter radius. A god's domain is made up of all their divinities causing there domains to be anywhere from 5 meters to 150 meters, as you have only utilized the space divinity in your domain it will be near the lower end.'

'Wait, so I'm supposed to do what? Channel all my divinities at the same time?'

'Well, yes and no. When you become a god king is when most gods get a domain as it is when you advance to god king you must 'organize' your divinities. After the organization of divinities the godking will have anywhere from 1-4 central divinities while the rest circle them, the central divinities would make up the domain as the rest only supply energy when the domain is active.

This also helps godkings be more in tune with all their divinities and show much better control over them.'

'Is there a way for me to organize my divinities now?'

'Yes, but it would not be beneficial in the long run as you will be devouring more divinities later, it would harm their development because once you choose your central divinities you can't change them. Part of that divine energy will always be kept in reserve for your domain, so training it will be longer than usual and you would never be able to utilize it to its fullest potential. '

'Ok thanks, show me my status please'

'Yes, Hades'

I was kinda hoping that after discovering so much about them , it would be at B lvl already.

'Sir, all that's left to be done to advance to the next stage is to circulate and use your divinity so it can grow, you already have a good understanding of the divinity, what's holding you back is quantity.'

'Ah, thanks Oracle.'

So I start to circulate my divinity. Thought out my whole body, then I take off. Sprinting outside the cave I use air walk and start running in the air, straight across the acid. After a few minutes I reach the other end. I then let myself fall until I hit the acid but instead of sinking, I landed on a hard surface and took off running back to my home for the last few decades. After doing this a few times I finally feel my divinity starting to drain faster than it's recharged so I land at the cave and work to try to start my teleportation practice, of course not on myself just yet. I use the same piece of meat I used for practicing my time manipulation. Keeping the meat just outside of my domain I try to summon it to me, and to my surprise it works, but I immediately feel something is wrong. My head is aching and my body feels heavy and next thing I know everything is going dark.
