Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1034 Tiamat

The shrill cry didn't just freeze the flow of energy in the surroundings, but also flattened everything that was still standing and hadn't been swallowed by the black mud.

After a few seconds, the giant woman's pink eyes stared directly at the group, and more specifically, at Kisuke.

A cold wind swept through Kisuke's spine and the hairs on his arm stood up, "!?"

He immediately dodged to the side and at the same time, the giant woman's eye lit up for a brief moment before an invisible projectile pierced through the air and went through the place Kisuke was just standing in.

But the moment he dodged, it was also when he realized his mistake and yelled, "Riveria!"

A large explosion occurred at a far out distance. Thankfully, after a few seconds, Kisuke got a reply, [...We're fine. But that pierced through several layers of my barrier. Line is already 'healing' the damaged parts of the barrier and should be up again within a minute or two. However, we won't be able to take it if there's a barrage of them, considering how effortlessly she fired something like that.]

While listening to her report, the trio noticed that the giant woman was slowly moving towards the direction of the camp where the concentration of Deities is located, "...Prepare the Teleportation Magic. I'll give you a signal when to move out."

[Understood.]

"Kisuke, look," Yoruichi called his attention and pointed her finger below them.

Kisuke looked down and saw a carcass of an animal that wasn't able to get away in time got swallowed by the black mud. But a moment later, the submerged carcass floated up on the surface of the mud and started moving again as if it returned to life.

"Resurrection?" Serafall asked, but Kisuke shook his head after a few seconds of observation, "It's more akin to corruption."

Kisuke then secretly brought out a token that transfers sound mentally and asked Serafall and Yoruichi to connect to it. The token is connected to a 'virus' that Kisuke implanted among the network of Deities that uses the same connection as their monitoring system so they would be able to listen to what they were saying if they were watching this battle.

[Just what is that thing?] This is the most common question from the Deities.

'They don't know?' Kisuke asked himself, 'Yet they won't fight against it? Looks like Chaos has more control over the Deities than I expected.'

"So anything we should know about her?" Yoruichi asked.

Kisuke stayed silent for a moment before replying, "Tiamat. That's her name and the only thing I know about her."

Serafall released her Demonic Power, "Tiamat, huh... I know names have some sort of strange power over the Worlds, but should we expect some Draconic aspect from her?"

"...I don't know. But those horns have a wisp of what seems to be a Draconic Aura. Just be careful since anything could come out of her. Lastly, follow the plan of forcing her back down." Kisuke's hair grew longer and a pair of angular horns sprouted on his head with his turning to that of a Hollow.

"Allow me to do the opening act.", Yoruichi pulled out her dagger and pointed it towards Tiamat, "Bankai."

A mass of Spiritual Power exploded out from Yoruichi that pushed both Kisuke and Serafall to the side. The tie that was holding up her hair instantly disintegrated and as her hair swayed in the air, it slowly turned white while also leaving behind streaks of her black hair. Yoruichi's feline eyes glowed golden and her dagger became thin and transparent.

With a flash of a lightning, Yoruichi disappeared and reappeared on top of the towering Tiamat and brought her dagger down on top of her head, "Rend."

In an instant, a thin line was drawn from the sky to the ground with Tiamat in the middle of it. A split second later, the air began to escape through this thin line before it disappeared three seconds later. Yoruichi had split open the space, separating everything that was holding it together.

But even after an attack that could technically cut everything, Yoruichi could only mutter, "Seriously?" Physically separating bonds between matter didn't do anything to the monstrous being in front of them, "And that should have been fatal for most."

Despite not doing anything, Tiamat still saw Yoruichi as a threat and turned her head toward her before opening her mouth. Immediately after, a ball of red light started gathering in her mouth and made Yoruichi shudder.

Yoruichi tried escaping through teleportation but found the space around her solidifying. She could easily break it but she wouldn't have enough time for that. She then tried physically running away with Flash Step which had the same problem. She could still escape through other methods but that would require sacrificing an arm or a leg.

"I've got you." She heard behind her and she didn't have to turn around to figure out that she was safe now and just had to brace for impact.

A blast of red energy ejected out of Tiamat's mouth and matching that, a pitch-black ray of light came from behind Yoruichi to meet the opposing force.

The black and red rays instantly met and created a blinding white light for a second before a massive fiery explosion occurred, spreading outward as if a gigantic bomb had gone off midair.

Yoruichi gritted her teeth to endure the shockwave and heat as the restrictions around her were broken and she teleported away. When she got out, she was already beside Serafall, who had also escaped the range of the explosion and saw the small sun the collision of attack generated. As there was almost nothing to burn, there was no smoke and just a ball of superheated air continually expanding.

Beyond the black mud, the trees that had been felled by the shrill scream were instantly incinerated by the hot air, creating a hell-like landscape.

Soon the light that engulfed the scene was snuffed out, revealing Tiamat with slightly cracked horns and Kisuke's slightly tattered shihakushou. The former, however, had already begun to heal from any damages she received.

"Well, it's good to know that she's not immune to physical trauma." Serafall commented, "Although it seems like you're a bad match against her."

"...If I can't cut her, I'll just bash her skull in.", answered Yoruichi.
