While mid-air, Kisuke felt a slight change in the sky, and without any hesitation, he activated five of the barriers he left on Orario which mainly block energy fluctuations and hide the sky among the residents of the city.

A second later, a bright violet light descended and struck Freya, breaking the pavement around her. The violet light was similar to the golden light when God's avatar died, but this time, the avatar was initiating a direct connection to God's main body. A direct confrontation against the rules of the Lower World.

Normally, she would only have a minute at most to use her Arcanum before she was forcefully deported back to Heaven but the barriers that Kisuke erected prevented that from happening.

And since the descending light created a small hole among the formations, those nearby could see what's really going on while those who can't see were discouraged from approaching the area. Of course, Kisuke knew that he wouldn't be able to control the Deities, at least with the barriers he had chosen to activate. So instead, he added a barrier that would physically stop them from even approaching to see what's going on. In any case, they would only be able to feel a slight release of Divine Power.

A few seconds later, the violet light ceased and revealed Freya adorned with a cloak made out of falcon feathers, "S-so this is a Deity... It's way more amazing than I originally imagined..." Tiona commented after the wave of Divine Aura washed over them, "T-te... Wait! Is it fine for her to be doing something like that!? I thought Deities aren't allowed to release their powers in the Lower World!?"

But instead of Loki, it was Finn who answered, "Of course it's not... However, Kisuke Urahara is probably doing something to hide that fact... Truly inconceivable... Does that mean he has the means to go against a God?"

"Not just that. Take a look at our surroundings. Despite the serious commotion they've caused, no one was approaching and it's too quiet. It's as if we became the only residents of Orario.", Riveria added.

"Finn is correct and he doesn't just have the ability to go against a God..." Loki, with the most serious voice and expression she has, continued, "He fully has the capability to slay one." Kisuke already guessed that Loki had already figured out what's going on because of his sloppy handling of the ability he's using, so he'd already released her and trusted that she won't be interfering anymore.

Loki then looked towards her children trying their best to hide their fear, "That's the kind of guy that you've been fighting earlier so you really don't have to take it to the heart that you lost to him. That also meant that his teachings and advice from earlier had a lot more value than you all originally thought. Who knows~ Maybe there would be a time that you all would be able to stand beside me on equal footing."

Ais clenched her fist as the heat was raised in her chest. If she really has that kind of power, then her dream would just be a trivial matter. She then looked back on the battlefield and became curious about Freya's sudden change of outfit, "A cloak made of feathers? What for?"

"Those aren't just some bird cloak but one of her Divine Armaments. Although it doesn't have a name, it's one of her most powerful weapons."

Everyone had already heard about Divine Ornaments from Loki when she's drunk bragging about hers so they could understand what it entails.

"Its wearer would be granted the ability to fly and contrary to its looks, it's one of the most sturdy ornaments in Heaven, making the user almost invulnerable to damage. Of course, as I've said, it's a weapon. Those feathers can fly out with blinding speed and each of them could act like they are a thrown spear. Most of the Gods who went against it got multiple holes punched in their bodies."

While Loki was explaining the cloak to her children, Freya finally moved and slowly floated up to the same level as Kisuke.

What Loki didn't tell her children was that the Freya right now became complete.

When she descended, she became known as Goddess of Beauty, Love, Fertility, and Harvest. That's because those are the only aspects that her avatar could contain until it became 'filled'. As for the remaining aspects, Gold, Sorcery, War, and Death, they were left behind and sealed in her original body.

Now that she has a direct connection, however, all the knowledge and experiences she has with the remaining aspects descended into her Avatar which was arguably, the biggest power up she'd received.

"Unforgivable..." Freya softly muttered, but Kisuke heard her perfectly. The despondent Goddess from earlier had already disappeared and the one in front of Kisuke right now is a bloodlust-filled warrior.

'I pissed her off, alright~ So much so that she still has no inkling that I'm using an incomplete illusion spell, Kyoka Suigetsu, sloppily.'

Loki has guessed correctly that Kisuke decided not to reason with Freya because he knew that it would just be a useless endeavor if he had learned something from socializing with Gods. Their beliefs are from their Divinity and their Divinity is the source of their power. The moment they doubted themselves, it would be the moment that they lost everything.

Nevertheless, they aren't exactly wrong with their beliefs either. In this morally gray world, wrong answers are only wrong for those who think they are wrong.

Since reasoning with her would just be a useless effort, Kisuke opted for an easier one, blackmail. By threatening her that he could easily destroy everything she has if she goes over the 'no no' line, it would create a more effective method of control.

Of course, Kisuke could have stopped after deleting a few of her top Familia members, but this is also a good chance to gather more concrete information regarding the beings called 'Deities'. As such, he couldn't easily let go of the opportunity and went ahead to piss her off more by brutally murdering everyone in front of her and disconnecting their connections to Freya temporarily, creating a wrong impression that they are already out of her reach.

As one could see, it went incredibly well. So well that she really won't listen to any of his words anymore and just out for his blood and soul.

Without saying anything further, Freya raised her hand, and thousands of complicated Magic Circles four feet in diameter each appeared around them in a span of a few seconds. Seeing such a grand scale of Magic, Kisuke thought, 'Yep~ She's in the state that she couldn't care less if she destroyed the world. How selfish.'

Instead of defending, Kisuke flew up with the speed of sound, aiming to escape the area so that Orario wouldn't be obliterated with just him standing there, 'Hmmm... Lolog Lake beside Melen is a good spot since I've also placed various barrier formations there. Good thinking, past me~!'

After praising himself, Kisuke decided to give a small screen where the members of the Loki Familia could watch their fight since it'll also be a good experience for them since he has a feeling that they might have to go against a God if things develop for the worst.

28th00: I kinda expected this the second he used an Illusion magic at the start, but man, it felt great to see Freya suffer. Cathartic, some might say...
