Chapter 183 (Fighting Tiamat)

"Heh... quite a strong immortal." Tiamat commended.

"A divine... let's see if you truly live up to that title." Scáthach said as she directed her spear towards Tiamat, "God Slayer Art: Sky Piercer." And from the get go she already used one of her god arts. She knows that not doing your best while fighting a divine means sending your life to hell.

Right from the start she didn't plant to hold back at all. The moment she used her god art, hundreds of red spears created by her [Weapon Control] quickly followed her original spear as it directly barrage towards Tiamat.

"Foolish..." Tiamat said as she moved her wings to defend the attack.

Thud*

The moment the attack collided with Tiamat's wings. It's as it was a mere pebble being thrown, it didn't do any damage at all. I guess, even the gap between an immortal and a divine is way still too high.

Screech*

The blood eagle bellowed. An ear piercing cry could be heard.

"Blood?." Tiamat said as she felt her blood was in a frenzy. This was because of the blood eagle. "This queen almost forgot, you are a blood eagle. Your abilities may be amazing but sadly it only affects those who are close to your ranks. Yet... you dare use it to this queen? Are you mocking this queen?." When Tiamat finished her sentence, it was not even a second before she appeared in front the blood eagle and directly unleashed a breath attack.

With no chance of escaping, the blood eagle folded her wings to protect herself. But... the breath attack didn't even get a chance to appear longer in the world as the moment it was unleashed, it vanished.

Scáthach stopped it before it both her and the blood eagle

"What disturbing magic." Tiamat commented but as she was too close to both of them. She used her claws.

Even though Tiamat was a tremendous dragon, her weight couldn't hold her at all as she was still too fast.

"Dodge..." Scáthach said to the blood eagle, but the blood eagle couldn't react at all.

Because of that, Scáthach was the only one acted as she used her god art again.

"God Slayer Art: Sky Piercer."

Boom!

A resounding sound was heard as Scáthach's spear and Tiamat's claws met. Still, the momentum and the power behind a divine's attack was too much for both Scáthach and the blood eagle to handle. Both of them got directly pounded to the ground.

Boom!

The ground cracked!.

After the dirt got cleared up. Scáthach was standing while holding her spear over her head. It seems at least she was not damaged by the attack. On the other hand, the blood eagle who acted as her comforter when they fell, got hurt quite a lot.

The blood eagle was really no use with this kind of battle. Her abilities only works for those who are closer to her rank but those who are way on higher league just like Tiamat. It was no use. As even her blood control can't do anything at all.

"Teleport her far away from here, let her protect the others." Scáthach shouted towards him.

"All right" He nodded and quickly teleported the blood eagle.

When he was watching the fight, although his eyes could still follow their movement but Tiamat's attack was almost blur to him, he had no time to control the laws of the world to protect both of them before Tiamat's claws reach them. It was already quite a stretch for Scáthach to counter that kind of speed.

...

Both of them got a moment to breath as Tiamat didn't quickly attack again.

"Strong..." Scáthach smiled.

"Yeah, Anyway, I will help." He said.

"Help? You think you can?." Scáthach rolled her eyes.

"What? You think I don't. Remember, I control this world." He said as he used the enchantment he did before when he was fighting Scáthach. [Infinite], [Greater Hardening], [Enhance Speed]. But he didn't use any lightning element.

"So what if you do? Didn't you already see that she can ignore it." Scáthach said.

"At least I can try right? If worst comes to worst we run. Besides, it doesn't hurt to try my new abilities, [Devil Form]." The moment he used his skill, his appearance change.

He grew twice more taller, his body turned dark as a lot of dark aura was emitted from it. Two horns appeared on his head with two jet-black wings growing from his back.

(For reference in his Devil Form. Try search Terrorblade's metamorphosis from dota 2.)

"Aura of a devil! How?." Scáthach got surprised.

"It's a new skill I have. Anyway, Let's go!." He leaped through the sky.

When they were talking Tiamat was observing him. Trying to find that 'thing' that lured her here. She almost laughed when she heard him saying that they could escape, she even thought of an idea to play with them. The moment when he transformed, she frowned.

"A devil? Disgusting! All of them tastes bad." Tiamat said in disgust.

His spear appeared on his hand as he lunch himself upward, towards Tiamat.

"Hey... What if you got hurt!.. Fine! Give me a bit of time. My enchantment will take a bit of time" Scáthach said, she didn't plan go with him yet. Her battle suit suddenly appeared. before, she was still using ordinary clothes.

"Okay, I got it..."

After putting on her battle suit. Of course, she didn't go naked in the process as she only inserted the battle suit over her the regular clothes. Then, she suddenly started engraving some unknown symbols all over her battle suit.

When he lunched far a bit from the sky, he suddenly disappeared. He teleported using the space law in this dimension. He didn't need to use [Space Manipulation] at all.

He appeared quite a distance above Tiamat.

"Eat this, Divine Spear Art: 1st Style: Creation." He used his divine art, although he could throw the spear towards Tiamat, he didn't. He lunched himself forward together with his spear in his hand, to directly hit her.

"Foolish..." Tiamat said.

And just as she said it was foolish for him to make that move. Although what she meant maybe different. Still... He didn't think that the moment he lunched towards her he couldn't control his speed. He was not familiar with his power right now. It was all because of his [Devil Form]. His power right now may even be on par with immortals. However, he was not used to it. Even his transformation is turning quite a bit weird.

His horns bend, his wings lost it's luster. It was foolish for him to directly use this skill to fight without any preparations.

Because it was too fast for even his brain to process, he didn't have time to think.

"[Void Claw]." And he was also really unlucky, it was the first time for Tiamat to use a skill and it was him who is the target. All of her attacks before were all ordinary, an ordinary breath attack, and ordinary claw attack.

Thud*

His spear with a lot of power and momentum because of his speed collided with Tiamat's void claw.

The moment the attack collided... two opposing sides was fighting for dominance. Tiamat's claw that could tear through space and his spear's negation ability.

However, it only took a second for him to lose. Tiamat's power was overwhelming compared to his. It was already quite commendable that his attack last a second.

Boom!.

After his spear was overwhelmed by her claws... because he was not used to his current power. He didn't have time to teleport so he could dodge, and in the end he got hit by Tiamat's claws. Although the power behind it got weakened because of his spear but it was only for a little bit.

Bang!

He got directly sent back to the ground where he leaped before. Cracks was formed on the ground again. The ground would have already gave up if he didn't fix it before... as Scáthach and the blood eagle fell on that certain spot.

Surprisingly, he was standing with only an injury on his shoulder. It was good that he used his [Greater Hardening] together with [Infinite] and I guess... the [Devil Form] also has a lot of defense.

His transformation got cancelled though. His appearance reverted back to a human.

"I was careless, I didn't think that I can't control the power on my body." He said, he turned his head to look at Scáthach.

"Little Scathy, are you done now?." He asked.

Scáthach didn't answer, she was staring at the blood on his shoulder.

"Oh this? Don't worry it will heal soon." He assured her.

Scáthach still didn't say anything... but lots of dark aura was emitting from her body.

'What is this sense of familiar feeling? Déjà vu?...' He suddenly got cold shoulders.

Tiamat who was up above the sky also felt something weird is happening.

"To dare..." Scáthach mumbled.

"What did you say little Scathy?..." He got a bit relieved that she finally talked.

Scáthach lifted her head up the sky and gaze upon Tiamat with her eyes full of hatred.

"To dare hurt this queen's property! Even this queen doesn't dare to do it! Yet you dare to? I'll kill you, Huehahahehehue..." Her laugh was like a devil.

'What the... this woman is scaring me.' He thought

"This queen remembered now. Why this queen was trapped and sealed... it was because this queen was too... strong!.

"[Divine Possession]."
