'Hey Oracle, what's the best way to train my ease divinity?'
'You can do the same as the comfort divinity but you will get better results if you relax your mind and body. It will be difficult to have your mind at ease while you circulate your divinity but if you can it will make your reserves and possibly your understanding of the divinity grow.'
'Okay, thanks Oracle, you can start now.'
I lay down on my back resting my head on my right arm while my left is laying at my side. For the first time since I've been reborn, I fully relax my body. Then I start to clear my mind. I clear my thoughts of training, winning the affection of my siblings, escape, everything. After a few minutes of just relaxing, I try to feel for the second divinity I got from my mother. After some time I was able to feel my divinity, it filled my chest with warmth and … relief?
It was a new feeling unlike how my other divinities gave. My Death divinity though it manifests as fire, fills my body with a minor chill as if I'm in a walk in refrigerator. My Devourer divinity fills me with a sense of strength but also a minor hunger, I know it's not for food but for that divinities, it drives me with a minor need to consume. I haven't used my wealth and riches divinity but I have felt it while sifting through my divinities on different occasions, like now. It fills me with a minor sense of greed, making me almost stingy when it comes to my wealth and riches and because of this divinity that is everything of value under the earth. The closest thing this felt like was my comfort divinity but this was on a completely different level, it only provided a small sense of safety and security from the hellish environment, but this was on more than just a physical level. Soon I started to feel regret for not training this divinity sooner but that was squashed almost immediately and once again, I felt relieved, of my thoughts, even relieved about my situation. I mean from here till the war it should be smooth sailing, No? So with thoughts of how things are going to be easy from now on and of how I'll really be able to completely relax when I claim my realm.
So I Iaid there relaxing and somewhat lost in my fantasies of relaxing in different comfy places, bed, throne, giant bean bag filled with feathers, and even of sleeping on a cloud. All while circulating m my divinity almost unconsciously. Like this a little over a decade went by.

'Sir,'
'…'
'Hades'
'…'
'HADES!!!'
'Hmm… What is it Oracle, I was having the best dream ever. I was laying on soft black sand in a beautiful beach I made in the underworld'
'Sir, this is why I woke you up. You should look around you, check your status, then I'll explain what I know. '
At this I couldn't help become curious and more alert. I looked around and the 'cave' is still the same, my flames still going strong. I decided to sit up to get a better look but that's when I noticed. When moving my left hand slightly felt sand under me. Looking down, I'm laying on a pile of black sand, just like from my dream. This sends my mind into chaos, questions and answers are being thought of at a speed I didn't realize my brain could function at. After drawing my own conclusions I do what Oracle suggested.
'Status'
—————————————————————
Name: Hades
Power lvl: God
Divinities: death(B), wealth and riches(B), comfort(B), ease(A), Devourer(B)
space/time (c lvl)
————————————————————
'Whoa… this is… unexpected, but FUCK YEAH. I never thought I would be able to make this much progress but this causes some concern. Oracle… how long was I in that dream state?'
'12 years sir'
'Hahaha, this is probably the easiest training I'll ever do. So Oracle, can you explain the sand?'
'Hades, you have just broken through to the A lvl for your ease divinity. Ease is the absence of difficulty or effort. Now that you have progressed you will be able to conjure things that will make things less difficult for you, as it is only A lvl and you are still trapped within your father you have heave limits on what you can conjure. Simple things like a pillow, blankets, clothes, sand, food and water can be easily conjured with focus. Bigger things like a bed, piles of food or big amounts of water are not feasible now but when you escape it will be easy.'
'Thanks Oracle, now problems with consuming, do you think he has noticed something yet?'
'No problems at all sir, and yes I believe he has as the time here has become even more chaotic around 7 years when the divinity advanced from D lvl to C lvl. He can feel his divinity slipping away and instantly connected it to you. So he slowed down everything in here to a freeze. It worked for a while but as it was unable to affect me I continued consuming it. 3 years ago was when I could break you from the hold. As he kept getting weaker even though you were frozen within him he stopped freezing time and went back to what he was doing before. I think he believes it has something to do with the prophecy. '
'Hahahahahaha, ok you can stop consuming now Oracle, thanks for the help.'
[ Kronos' POV ]
It can't be stopped. Me losing my power is something that I don't think I can control. It all started 11 years after I ate the threat to my rule. I've done all I could. I froze the little bastard in my stomach, got looked at by Hecate, I even started training again in secret but nothing stops my divinity from slipping away.
The only cause I can think of is the dying words of my father. He didn't say anything like this would happen if I decided I just wouldn't have kids but I see no other explanation. So he decided he would keep having kids and eat all of them until he has one that is a Titan
So over this past year after convincing Rhea, we had another child, that's being born now. If this child is also not a titan then there's only one thing to do. It'll have to join its sibling.
After waiting for a few hours for Rhea to finish giving birth, Kronos felt a familiar presence coming from the same room as Rhea, the presence of another traitor. Just as Kronos was about to go and get the child he noticed his divinity was no longer getting weaker. This only made his belief in his plan firmer.
After forcefully taking the child from a bruised, bloody and crying Rhea, he again without even paying raised the child above his mouth while his jaws spread open unnaturally. Then dropped the child in. After he went to Rhea and told her to be ready to receive him as soon as she recovers from giving birth as they have more kids to make.
