Titanomachia Pt. 1

"We should leave," Demeter says, "Like right now."

"That is the best non-grain related idea you have ever had up to this day", Hera responds.

And then I ask Hades to lead us back up. And we all, including our six new large friends, follow him as he lead us back to the upper world as quickly as possible while we fight and kill some monsters along the way.

Zeus, Hera, Hestia, Hades, Demeter and I all fly back to Crete to regroup and make a plan for the war. The Hundred-Handed Ones and Cyclopes kinda just walk on the sea floor to follow us.

I mean they're HUGE. The Cyclopes alone are probably as big as a small mountain, the Hundred-Handed Ones as a large one.

The Cyclopes are muscular and stout too though. And the Hundred-Handed Ones have...a hundred hands? Well, they also have like fifty different faces.

Once we arrive at Crete, our mother greets us and gives us a bunch of hugs and kisses.

I just stand there awkwardly and accept them, still feeling weird from all the affection even though I have now accepted her.

"Now we shall fight!", Zeus says.

"No, we still need to train, the rest of us haven't done any actual combat training at all", I respond casually.

"But with my master bolt we can defeat them!", Zeus says impatiently.

"Ugh", I groan in my mind.

"I agree with Poseidon, they need to train, and the six of you can't win the war all by yourselves. You need allies and I will get you some", Rhea cuts in.

"How?", Hades asks.

"Well, Kronos wasn't exactly a very good ruler, lots of Titans hate him and only obey him because of fear", Rhea says with a sad smile while looking at us and feeling bad.

And I kinda just ignore it....

I'm not good with emotions due to my last life and I feel like I'll make things worse if I say anything, I'm also kinda blunt with my words.

Hestia walks up to her and gives her a hug and I start to feel extremely bad.

Rhea then offers to go around convincing Titans to join our side, and then she soon leaves.

I don't feel like talking to anyone so I go to the beach to train. I look around and the beach and can't help but gasp at how beautiful and unpolluted the beach is. It's so clear and pristine I can see straight to the bottom of the water.

At that moment I promise to myself that I will never let the oceans get as polluted as they were in the future.

Then I start my training...

But then I realize that I have no clue how to use a trident, to be honest I was just swinging it around randomly at my target before.

I don't want to practice bad habits for using the trident since it's going to be my main weapon, so I decide to practice my Earthshaker powers.

I make a pedestal for my trident out of sea water and then put it down.

I then stomp my foot down and the earth trembles and cracks beneath the blow.

After practicing my abilities so much while still in Kronos's stomach I figured out they're like a muscle, they get stronger the more I use them.

So my goal right now is to use my Earthshaker abilities only so I can gain proficiency and let it grow until it is at least equal to or a little bit weaker than my sea god powers.

I spend the rest of my day training like that. Throwing punches and kicks forward while infusing and using my Earthshaker powers. Causing the land around me to tremble and shake.

By the time I'm done I work up a sweat, but am not even really that tired.

Deciding to take a break, I jump into the water to relax.

And it feels f*cking amazing.

This is the first time I've actually been in an ocean that is not my DOMAIN made one in this life.

When we first got out, it was the first thing I wanted to do, but we had more important things to do so I couldn't.

When in the water it feels like every fiber of my being had become part of it, everywhere and nowhere at once.

I figure that the DOMAIN made one and this ocean feel so different because the DOMAIN made one isn't truly a real ocean. It's just a temporary one that I forcefully pulled into another area.

Plus, I'm always under constant stress when using DOMAIN.

While in the water I reflect on my life now, but get distracted when I try to describe myself and realize I haven't even fully seen my own face in this life.

I looked into water all the time, but I was always more focused on the actual training rather than checking my appearance so it was only warped images and glimpses, never actually the full thing.

I use the water to make a chair and sit on it while the chair stands on the slightly rocking water. Then I focus a bit of water in my hand to make it fully capable of reflecting my face.

And the I look...and I'm too f*cking handsome!

I was expecting to look very similar to how Percy was described in the books, with messy black hair and sea green eyes, but I guess not.

First of all, I have messy blonde hair. Emphasis on "Blonde".

Second of all, I have a pale white complexion, but I already knew that from looking at my arms and legs. I just didn't think much about it.

Third, I have pale sea blue eyes. Yup, sea blue.

And of course I'm ripped, but with a leaner body than Zeus.

In conclusion, I look pretty dang different from what I expected.

But I'm still pretty happy with this look. Although it seems kinda familiar, I can't remember from where I've seen it.

I take a few minutes to think about it and remember, and I finally recall that I look exactly like Poseidon from Record of Ragnarok.

I grimace from that though as that Poseidon was a bit of a b*tch.

....

A couple of days pass like that until Hestia comes to call me.

"Poseidon!", Hestia calls. "Mother had returned with the Titans that want to join us! Come meet them!"

I get up and join her in walking to our camp.

Once we arrive I see a large group of Titans at our camp.

The thing is, like almost all of them are female, and like ninety percent of them are clinging on to Zeus with admiring gazes while he brags about his master bolt and how he killed Kampê.

And my face instantly crumples.
