This time it wasn’t a grand plan with several steps and I didn’t need any preparation other than the Blessing I used on everyone now. This is a war of such large proportions that any move by both sides becomes big.
Hinata finding the secret base where their attack waves are coming from was a good thing, but it would be useless for me to attack, even though I’m a God. There are also Gods on the other side and I don’t know how many are stronger than me, not to mention all the others who could make a strategy like that using their numbers to fight against me.
Taking only my companions on a sneak attack would also be useless. It would be a huge risk for everyone and there would be a chance of us being surrounded in the end.
I wouldn’t let them take that risk.
Which leads us to this situation, a surprise crushing attack, ironically enough it was the same strategy they used.
Taking all our attack power in a full advance like that could not be hidden, they would notice our advance and that’s why we had to be quick without giving them enough time to do anything elaborate, I also couldn’t let them recover from this attack that ended in failure for them.
I transformed into a Dragon and took the lead, going in front, even the weakest among us was able to fly, even so we didn’t measure our speed against those weaker ones or moving through space could take years, those stronger were taking the weaker ones, increasing everyone’s speed, of course I was doing the same using my Aura to drag them faster without causing problems.
With that, it took us 2 hours to reach where the Church of Light’s base was, just as I suspected, they are not far from where the Star System is, but they are far enough away to not be seen.
The place in question was an asteroid field that seems normal, but for those who pay focused attention to this place will notice a vacuum bubble that escapes the senses.
"Go ahead." (I)
"Open..." (Hinata)
Hinata steps forward and a half-rotted arm comes out of her body as if it were made of mud, then a strong luminous energy forms in the 5 fingers before being fired in 5 different directions, these energies collide against the Asteroids causing their positions to change before all 5 points of light now weaker collide in the middle.
The shape of the asteroid field changed and with that it revealed fragments of a disk with Rituals drawn on it and in it is found the light from before right in the center as if it were a Sun exerting its gravity on all the other fragmented pieces that now in position rotate around it like a disk.
Of course this only lasted for half a second before exploding from the inside out, clearly they noticed what we were doing and tried to destroy the entrance way, but that was exactly what I wanted.
We didn’t have the means to truly open a complete path, the most Hinata could do was use the remains of the Priest’s power that she devoured, what she needed was a guiding line and they had just given me one.
The moment the wave of Power came from within destroying everything, I created a line using my Divinity and Anomalous power, for someone as colossal as me in Dragon form, this line seemed almost invisible, but its thickness was several meters and covered in symbols, it was the thinnest I could make by placing these symbols of Spiritual Runes.
This line followed my Will and penetrated the wave of Power following it to its source creating a Dragon’s head at its tip, thanks to this I was able to extend the line to the other side trapping what was clearly a Demigod with my line, a smile crossing my Dragon face.
"< Divine Eclipse Magic: Universal Tunnel >" (I)
In fact, this was an adaptation of teleportation magic, but I had to adapt it using Divine Power and without knowing the destination I could only use my line as a medium for this magic.
The Spiritual Runes light up while embossed energy lines connect them all creating countless magic circles and chains in the space of a blink of an eye.
I could feel the Demigod on the other side trying to break free and the reaction of those around him, I had expected this and that was the reason for using the Anomalous Power giving aspects of recovery to the line as if it were a living creature while dodging some attacks.
This was all to buy time, even if it was only 1 or 2 seconds it would be all I needed.
Soon the line breaks apart at the tip of my finger while expanding spinning in a cone shape at high speed revealing a scene inside of Temples and Armies.
The passage is large enough for 10 of me to pass through hundreds of kilometers in diameter.
On the other side I saw pieces of a dismembered body with its parts torn off swinging at different ends of the opening on the other side, it seems that the Demigod trapped on the other side was defeated even before the first confrontation, I wasn’t expecting this, but I was happy as I advanced with everyone at high speed.
"< Divine Breath of Anomalous Chaos >" (I)
"< Breath of Anomalous Chaos >" (Hades)
"< Breath of Divine Cataclysm >" (Silvia)
"< Divine Breath of Massacre >" (Adella)
"< Breath of the Demon Dragon >" (Xagar)
"< Breath of the Sacred Eclipse: Sun and Moon >" (Veronica/Loki)
"< Sacred Breath of Light and Darkness >" (Magnus)
I had already formed an initial plan to at least invade this place, Hinata extracted the memory of her food before killing, so I knew they would do everything to stop us, so I was more than ready to enter by breaking the entrance and with both feet in a flying kick directly at Baldr’s chest.
Everyone else prepared for the initial attack while I was taking care of the passage, so when I released my breath everyone followed me as agreed.
I saw powerful attacks coming from inside, they weren’t messing around, their attacks were all of the Light or Fire element, coming like a current from the passage.
Both our attacks and theirs collided while still inside the passage and at that moment I felt the space distort, then the surroundings changed once again, me and those around me launching the attacks were pulled into the mirrored space once more, meanwhile on the other side were several Gods and Demigods, both sides were still attacking.
On one side white, red and gold prevail, while on our side a myriad of colors with a greater focus on the color black that repeats itself in several attacks.
I could merge all the attacks into one since they are all my children and Heralds, but that would require spending more power, which was not necessary.
"(Spread out!)" (I)
"(Yes!!!)" (Everyone)
Everyone stops their attacks as I return to my small size as we dodge the attacks, without continually burning our power in those attacks, the wall of luminous powers crushes our attacks coming towards us, everyone scatters in different directions with the enemy attacks largely missing their target, only a few enemy attacks change their trajectories to chase us, but that didn’t matter anymore.
We all advanced from different directions towards the enemies, which forced them to stop their attacks to face us head on. After a few moves, everyone was scattered once more. I was flying in my Dragon form while the one in front of me smiled as he threw a metal sphere upwards that unfolded into that Dragon of light. I was right. That thing really was a Divine Weapon.

Pov Samara’s:
I saw space swallow up the attacks and all those involved in the attack. It seems that this Universe really is weak to need this kind of measure to contain Divine-level power. 𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
I saw the master disappear, while the path he created became free. We were all advancing in attack, already prepared for all of this. That’s why we were able to invade without impediments this time, acting before the enemies realized they had fallen into a trap.
I among everyone was left behind to ensnare anyone potentially dangerous among the enemies, so while everyone was invading and already starting indiscriminate attacks in all directions, I was searching for the largest presence in the surroundings.
"(A Holy Land of Light, this might be a bit tricky.)" (I)
I noticed some strong presences, but the biggest obstacle was this Holy Land, this would be an increase in the overall power of all the enemies, this couldn’t stay like this.
"Corrupting what is sacred, that’s exactly my favorite kind of pastime... hahahaha..." (I)
The power inside my body was bubbling, the Anomalous and Infernal Power mixed together, fusing into the chains that were once my prison.
I advance towards the central ground where that temple was, I could see that golden place from afar and coincidentally it was where one of the powerful presences I felt was.
I twist my wrist a few times, this living body without possessing life was very pleasant to me.
"This presence, I didn’t expect that..." (I)
While smiling, I stepped on the ground and the area where I landed spread black flames mixed with purple traces for a few meters, my mere presence can corrupt and desecrate even the Divine Power, much less a mere Sanctified Land like this.
"(Corrupt what is sacred... break what is Divine... transform everything with your Will...)" (I)
This kind of power that the master granted me is wonderful, even his name has so many beautiful connotations for me, you can call me whatever you want, be it Saint, Slave, Servant or even prisoner, provoking him that day was the best decision I made.
