training

(tiamat pov)

we left the pond and went to bed i lucifer hugged me with a satisfied smile and dozed off i kept playing with his hair while thinking of the future 'we are safe in my realm but we can't stay here forever'.

"i have to get him ready for what is to come it will be brutal to the both of us i don't want to see you suffer but you must be ready for anything not only to survive but to always thrive"she hugged him close while projecting her power in her domain.

at a forest close to the pond she isolated it so no one can leave without her permission chaos energy bathed the forest and monsters were being born she kept doing that and stopped at certain number.

but she didn't stop there she raised their strength and power she wanted this place to be her son's training ground every time the numbers lessen she would do it again and raise their power more.

she would keep doing this and change the monsters constantly and their powers until he becomes a true warrior that can survive any foe.

she kissed his forehead and felt his power and smiled his growth is extraordinary he can grow to terrifying heights if given the chance and she will make sure he will.

when i woke up the next day i thought we will go through the same routine but my mother told me that the forest has many monsters that she can spawn there i grew very excited.

all of this time i only sparred with mother i never actually had a real battle so i grew excited and got ready to battle and when i got in right mentality i we__

"wait sweety before you go there is something you will need your own raiment." my mother held my hand and said.

"raiment i thought that that is something only you have and i don't want something so feminine" i replied confused.

my mother just giggled cutely and gave me a kiss"no sweety a raiment is something any divine being can summon when they gain enough mastery over their concept and now sweety you can summon your death raiment and wear it for protection upto a certain point then it can be destroyed but a long as you have divinity you summon it back"

she looked at me seriously and said" the raiment strength and resistance relies on the mastery over your concept and your concept itself as it is made from it after enough mastery over your light i want you to use it's raiment in public unless necessary so your father doesn't know about your main concept"

i nodded at her and closed my eyes and tried to summon my death raiment and surprisingly i did it on the first try i opened my eyes amazed at the feeling of power like i was finally complete.

"be careful honey this raiment is made of death any one without the necessary power touches it without permission will die look at your previous clothes" she said with an amazed look on her face.

i looked down and i could see my raiment a long utterly black robe that looks like the blackest of night that suckes in the light but doesn't reflect it it covers my entire body except my head but there is a large hoodie that i can use to cover my head but i feel it's too large like it would cover my whole head my face included 'how would i see' i though.

i covered my head with it and i was right it covered my entire face but weirdly i could still see as always i looked at mother and she was surprised.

"that has a very intimidating look but there is something else i can only see you thanks to my realm we need to do a few tests but if i'm right your raiment can hide you from any one unless your in their realm"she said with a gleam in her eyes and i understood the implication.

"this is great i can use it outside fathers realm without any worry this could give me an edge if left unknown but we have to test it limits to make sure it stays as a trump card with my main divinity" i said and my mother nodded with a proud smile on her face.

my mother hugged me to her chest the looked at me and said seriously " you have to grow strong my love strong enough that no one can stand in your way only then will you be free to be who you are meant to be and do what you want."

i processed her words and it only stroked my desire for power even more because she was right i haven't met father yet but mother wouldn't lie but what is true is i need to master my powers and gain more much more to defend myself and my loved ones.

i looked at my mother with determined eyes i need the power to protect her compared to her and father i'm nothing that lit a fire inside me that i didn't know existed.

i gave my mother a kiss and said" i'm going now there isn't much time until things stars to get serious and i need to as strong as possible so i will ask you for something and i hope do it for my sake"

she looked at my eyes brimming with determination and nodded i said" i need you to raise the difficulty al lot and keep increasing i want to struggle to survive and not interfere even when my life is threatened"

she looked hesitant and i understood why this is going to be torture for her more than me so i compromised just as she was about to refuse.

"you can interfere at the last second to save me but not a moment before i must struggle to survive i have a feeling that is the fastest way to grow please trust in me" i told her and she reluctantly agreed in the end.

so started the worst and most informative years of my life as i found out i have a great love for life and death battle's and that i thrive in chaos.
