When Talos said Hercules was barely alive, he wasn\'t joking. After all, just a flick on the head was all it took to make Hercules rest in pieces. Yeah, pieces because his body physically felt apart as soon as he was dead. But Talos was confident he could still resurrect him.
"Now that he\'s dead for sure, let\'s get to the fun part." Arnold rubbed his hands together, "Oh right, but first, I should do this..."
Arnold quickly took out a large mana and HP potion from his inventory, before gulping them down in one go. He wasn\'t intending to fight Hercules, but he had to be prepared in case if that basta*d wanted to fight. However, Arnold wasn\'t going to fight alone.
An hour had already passed since Hercules killed Tiamut, so she was ready to be summoned again. Hercules might have one shot her in his godly state but he won\'t be able to do that anymore. Even if he did, he would have to face the new resurrected Olympian army as well. Which Arnold doubted he would do. Hercules was many things and betrayer was not one of them, hence, he would most probably just surrender without much fuss.
Without any further delay, Arnold hurriedly summoned Tiamut out, and boy was she pissed. Her anger was rightful, but still, her emotions were all over the place. More than Arnold would have liked.
"Where is that basta*d son of Zeus! I will tear him apart myself! I will-"
"He\'s already dead." Arnold told Tiamut before pointing at whatever was left of the demigod, "It has been an hour since he destroyed you. Do you think I\'d carry on the battle for long after that?"
"Eh? Dead already?"
"Yup. But don\'t worry, you\'ll get your chance to punish him soon. So let me prepare you for what\'s to come. After all, he was still stronger than you before he died and it\'s better to be safe than sorry." Arnold mumbled before placing his hands on Tiamut\'s chest plate, "You are dangerous enough on your own, but with this, you\'ll be more or less on his level. Enhance!"

"Hm... I was hoping to get a permanent increase, but oh well, beggars can\'t be choosers right?" Arnold scratched his chin while looking at Tiamut\'s temporary stats, "The buff, however, makes it better altogether-"
"This strength... this power... what is this?" Tiamut smiled as she interrupted Arnold, "What is this godly power? How can you do this? Would you keep giving me this strength every time I fight for you?"
"Not if you keep going batsh*t crazy after every time I do this..." Arnold stepped back as Tiamut was getting a bit too close for his comfort, much to Natasha\'s dismay.
In a span of seconds, Tiamut had turned from a cold-hearted bitc* to a power junky. Arnold had not expected this to happen because for most of the time Tiamut usually was a calm and composed... person or dragon or whatever the fck she was? But now, she was acting like a substance abuser who had found something more effective to calm their nerves.
"My apologies for my erratic behaviour..." Tiamut finally regained her composure and stepped back, "I don\'t know what came over me..."
"Don\'t worry, it\'s fine. Just concentrate on the task at hand. Now let\'s head back inside the domain-"
"I would strongly suggest you not to do that, Master." Talos interrupted him, "Allowing Hercules inside the void before \'Taming\' him first, could be disastrous."
Arnold was a bit confused as to what Talos was trying to say. So Talos carried on with the explanation.
"We still don\'t know whether Hercules has his own domain or not." Talos reminded him, "This means, he could freely challenge your authority over the domain. Also, in your absence, he would most likely take over without much issue."
"Well... ain\'t that a bit*h." Arnold had not thought about this. He assumed that Hercules would just be like Tiamut, as she was a demigod who didn\'t have a domain, "Tia, do you know whether this a*shole had a domain or not?"
"He is one of Zeus\' favourites so of course, he does." Tiamut sincerely replied.
"Then I don\'t think there\'s a point in resurrecting him anymore. After all, I can\'t keep him leashed to me at all times. One of these times, he would have to get in the void and then that\'ll turn into a problem."
"Well... I do have a plan to tame him." Talos mumbled before turning towards Natasha.
