The Hivemind had just ascended into godhood, so he was very amateur in the usage of divine power, he was probably even unaware there is such a thing as divine realms and more.
And maybe he would have the time to assess this if it wasn't because a giant bird man covered in fire attacked him and threw him into the skies, desperately forcing him to fight the one little mortal he hated the most.
Of course, as he was filled with the rage of her hurtful words, he couldn't help but unleash his powers carelessly against her, and only thought about the most basics of ways of fighting, gathering, and manipulating the shadows naturally emanated from his divinity of darkness, and shaping them as giant ten-meter-long spears that could fly at incredible speeds, and showering the girl with these deadly projectiles!
As they were packed with divine power, he was sure that they would be able to deal a great deal of damage against her! After all, unlike him, she wasn't a divine being of incredible power, and therefore, she could be more easily defeated by his own powerful divine abilities.
Or so was what he hopelessly believed, as he jumped into the fight by firing thousands of spears made of darkness against her!
"Darkness…! Alright, Light it is then!"
Manationia enhanced the titan below her as she infused it with the power of light, an incredibly powerful light that began to encompass everything around the titan suddenly took over it, the flames turned golden, and it shone brightly with a golden metallic armor over his enormous body!
FLASH!
The hivemind was left shocked as he saw Manationia in action, her powers were able to easily defy whatever he had ever learned about magic before, as she was creating a living being out of magic and even infusing it with a new element!
"Now!" said Manationia.
"Understood!"
The titan replied to her in an instant, as the spear of flames turned into an enormous sword made of golden flames and light, and he swung it with extreme precision and power!
SLAAASH!
A giant slash of blazing golden flames came out of the blade, as the golden flames began to destroy the spears of darkness fairly easy! The powerful fire was able to turn off the darkness with the power of divine holy flames.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The spears began to explode and dissipate one by one, as the Hivemind was left shocked!
"What?! How strong is she?! D-Did I do something wrong? How do I even do this?!" wondered the Hivemind, he was such a newbie at the usage of divine power that he was committing rookie mistakes and wondering what to do next!
The Hivemind then realized that he could always borrow the ideas from his believers through their connection to his mind! He planned to just eat them now, but they were still useful.
Gods were able to make connections with those that believed in them, of course, this only happened when the god wanted, which was very rarely, but the Hivemind could do this with a lot of the minds of his mortal followers and turn them into literal calculators for him!
Using these minds, he quickly dragged new ideas and spells, and conjured them!
"Dark Shadow Domain!"
FLAAASH!
His Divine Aura spread around as a domain of darkness, suddenly entrapping Manationia within it alongside him, of course!
Domains were amazing spells to trap enemies inside, and after getting the idea, he quickly copied it and reproduced it out with the power of his divinity of darkness.
Using this wondrous power, the Hivemind was able to entrap Manationia inside, and quickly decided to attack her! the amazing thing about domains was that the user had complete control over them and could use them as a weapon as well, manipulating every aspect of it to attack their foe!
Suddenly, countless of tentacles all around the entire domain tried to attack Manationia at the same time, all of them rushing towards her and attempting to entrap her and destroy her titan!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
However, her titan swung his golden flame blade, swinging it and destroying the tentacles while vanquishing any darkness trying to get near!
SLAASH! SLAAAAASH!
BOOM!
The blazing golden flames consumed more and more of the darkness, as the Hivemind began to grow restless, he couldn't believe that there could be someone capable of defeating his darkness after he had become a god!
"How does she do it?! What does she has that I don't?! I am pretty sure that she has no other power than her own magic!" roared the Hivemind, unaware that Manationia had trained her magic inside a pocket dimension where time went slowly, and her magic was already stepping into the level of divine too!
BOOOOMMM!!!
More golden flames exploded, consuming the darkness of the Hivemind's domain, as the giant titan of flames flapped his enormous blazing wings and reached the Hivemind in an instant!
"Unngh…!"
Th Hivemind groaned in surprise and frustration, as he quickly attacked by unleashing several beams of darkness from the various eyes he had!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Of course, each beam reached his foe but barely did much damage against their opposite element such as light, and in such an intensity as it was being wielded too!
SLASH!
The Hivemind quickly evaded the powerful slashing attack that almost sliced him in half, as he crawled behind him and tried to attack using his tentacles, shaping them as spears and them piercing through the body of the titan!
CLAAAAASH!
"Uuuaagggh…!" cried the titan.
"Ah, guardian!" cried Manationia.
The Hivemind smiled as he had successfully attacked this time around! And this was all thanks to his amazing power, the ability to turn into shadows, camouflaging within this domain and catching him off guard in the back!
"Hahahaha! Foolish magical entity!" laughed the Hivemind.
"You're the foolish one here…" said the titan.
"Huh?!"
The Hivemind realized way too late that he had given Manationia the perfect scenario to strike! Her magic materialized into countless of spell circles around her, flashing with bright light and ready to fire their magic attacks at him!
"T-This…!" muttered the Hivemind in shock.
