《Reincarnation Royale》 Prologue RW There was once a boy who lived a pretty bad life. He lived sometime in the 21st century, in the same world we live in today. He was a modern day slave, and no, he was not an employee to a modern day company, he was an actual slave to a mafia boss. His parents had been involved in the underworld, and they had been pretty famous as well. Life had been going well for the two of them, that is until one day, when they were out on a job and they mysteriously disappeared from the face of the earth. At least, that is what most people thought had happened. It turns out that the last client the boy''s parents had was actually one of their many rivals in the underworld. He had made the two of them walk right into a trap and had them quickly disposed of. This had happened 10 years ago, and the boy was now 13 years old. He had been a slave for over 10 years, since the moment he was captured while being babysitted by his mother''s friend. This caused him to be brainwashed from a young age into only having one goal in mind, "To become the best slave possible." And to accomplish this, the young boy learned all he could. He studied his ass off to attain the qualifications of a high-quality butler, he studied the proper way to be a bodyguard, and his enthusiasm even made it so that the mafia boss allowed him to take classes in espionage. No matter how badly he was treated, no matter how inferior he felt, the boy continued to push on through. Fast forward a few years and the young boy was now a young man, and he was one of the mafia bosse''s most outstanding and trusted followers. He excelled in whatever he did: cooking, science, technology, martial arts, the art of war, he would conquer whatever field he was put in to the point that even people twice his age who specialized in those fields admitted their inferiority. He was truly a top-class slave, among other things. He had accomplished his goal. . . . Not. One day, after the young man had turned 20, he decided that it was finally time to finish his true lifetime goal. Young Man: Boss, thank you for allowing this lowly one to live all these years. Mafia Boss: Hahaha, no problem. If anything, I''m glad I did. It was the best decision of my life. Thanks to you, our organization has literally tripled in size. Hey, what''s a good reward for you? Wanna marry my daughter, she''s quite the beauty and still Virgin soil, I''ve made sure of it. Young Man,: Oh, don''t worry boss, I''ve already got what I wanted. Mafia Boss: Wha- *bang*The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Before the mafia boss understood what was going on, the young man had already put a bullet through his head. He was dead before he even understood the situation. Young Man: Now comes the hard part, getting out of here alive. The young man quickly made his getaway as soon as he confirmed the death of the mafia boss. His true goal had finally been completed after all these years, so the young man felt that even if he died, it would still have been worth it. Though, the young man still preferred to live. The young man fought for 1 whole hour until he finally made it out of the mafia base. He was bruised, cut, and bleeding, but he was nonetheless still very much alive. He continued running until he managed to reach the dock near the base. He then proceeded to hijack one of the many boats there while making sure he had disabled the tracker on it. He drove for a couple of hours until he came to a town in the mainland. He had roughly patched himself up to avoid dying, but he still needed medical care. Once near the shore, he parked the boat and made his way towards the nearest clinic. On the way there though, a truck appeared around a street corner and nearly slammed right into him. If he had been at peak condition, then he might have been able to dodge, but alas, he was too heavily injured to do so. Just as the young man started to accept death, he felt someone push him out of the way. When he looked at who it was out of the corner of his eye, he saw it was a normal black haired man who looked barely 18. Though he did not see his face, the young man remembered the aura that the black haired man was emitting the moment before his death. It was one that he himself was quite familiar with. It was the aura of complete decisiveness, or the will to do something with no regrets whatsoever. Just barely after the young man had finished memorizing the scene, the truck hit the black haired man and with a sickening splat, he died. Normally, the young man would have stayed behind to bury his saviour, but he did not wish to make his sacrifice useless. He knew that if he tallied for too long, his wound''s would be the death of him. And so, the tired young man dragged his beaten body to the local clinic where the doctors there managed to stabilize him. After that, the young man went on to live a normal life. He even managed to meet a nice woman and settle down with her to start up a family. His life could no longer be considered "bad"; however, no matter how much time passed, no matter how many events occurred, the young man, now old, never forgot the saviour who he owed his new life to.
POV shift... ?: Dammit, that guy messed it all up!!! I could just go and kill the guy I wanted, but then I''d end up causing too many problems with the natural order and *sigh* why did I have to make everything so complicated!? I should really consider going back in the past and punching the earlier me in the face. Ha... so, who was that guy who died anyway? ...Mike, huh? Average otaku, orphan, outstanding citizen, read so many harem light novels/Manga that it became one of his greatest wishes to have a harem... Hmm... well, maybe he can make things interesting? I did try to go for mostly people with amazing high class skills, but maybe having 1 guy like this will make for an interesting "game"... Ah, who am I kidding, it''s been billions of years since anything really interested me! Why not, I''ll give the boy a chance. Who says gods don''t have a shred of kindness, hahahaha! ??: Ugh, big brother is starting another one of his famous plans to cure his boredom. ???: You guys want to do the same? ????: ...Why not, watching normal mortals has been getting a bit boring. Even watching heroes isn''t like it was in the past. Alright, I''m up for it. ???: And you two are in agreement as well? ??/?????: *nod* ???: Then it''s decided, it''s once again time for the gods to have some fun?. Mike and CE(Chapter 1)RW Chapter 1(POV MC) ?: Hi. Me: ¡­ ?: How you do¡¯in? Me: ...Why the f*ck is there a ball of light floating in front of me? Is it supposed to be the light at the end of the tunnel that I''ve heard about? I know I was supposed to die, so why can still feel my body? What are you and where- ?: Stop right there. I had such high hopes you would be original, but now you¡¯re starting to become cliche... C''mon, I need you to be as original as possible for this to be a good way to pass time. Show me that you''re worthy of my benevolence! Me: What are you talking about? And how dare you say I''m not origin- ?: Enough, or else I''ll send you on your way without explaining anything to you. Trust me when I say that if I do, you''ll regret it for the rest of your life. Me: ¡­ ?: Good, now, where should I begin from?Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation. Me: How about telling me who you are? ?: Nope, I''ll first tell you who you are. Me: What are you talking about? Why would¡­!!! ?: Missing something? Me: Why can''t I remember who I am? ?: Simple, I made you. Me: !!! ?: To be more precise, I pretty much made everything. I am the Creator of Everything! Me: ¡­ That¡¯s a stupid title. Should''ve just went for the usual "I am god" line. CE: F*ck you, it''s better than yours! Honestly, who names their son Dora... Me: !!! Are you serious, that¡¯s my name!? CE: JK, it''s not, but yours is still pretty bad Mikey. Me: ...Why can''t I remember who I am? CE: Side effect of death. What can you remember? Me: I remember general information, such as that I was the generic otaku that liked anime and yet I never went full weeb, and I remember basic human morals. I know what I look like without needing to look in a mirror but not what kind of ethnic group I belong to. I also have 4 goals that are ingrained into my mind, almost like they''re instinct. 1.Live life to the fullest 2.Protect what is yours, people and materials 3.Help, but don''t be a hero(Why do I feel like I already broke this one...) 4.Build a har- Hey! Why is this the odd one out! (B: Sorry, A likes these kinds of stories, and the fact that the writer of Terror Infinity Side-B made it work makes it so that he wants to give writing about it a try.) CE: That''s most likely due to your primal instincts as a male. Anyways, just follow those 4 rules that make up who you are. They won''t get in your way where you''ll be going, hell, they might make it so that you''ll enjoy what''s to come. Now, let''s start start talking about your future. Oh, this is gonna be so much fun! And my sister''s said it''d be a waste of time... we''ll show them. Chapter 2 RW Chapter 2(POV MC) Me: So, where am I going and what are you going to have me do? CE: Oh, I¡¯m just having you and a few others from your world take part in my entertainment, a "game" if you will. You know, the classic reincarnation situation that you mortals love so much. Except, there will be a little bit of a twist to it... Basically, I''ll have you guys reincarnating into worlds similar to popular stories/fictions in your old world. I believe you''ve already read similar stories, correct? Well, the only major difference is that you won''t be reincarnated just once... at the very least, you''ll be reincarnated into 5 worlds. Also, their might be some noticeable differences between those worlds and the fiction counterparts, but we''ll get more into those details later. Me: ...Okay, but how will I play this "game" of yours, and what''s the prize if I win? CE: Look at you, taking the initiative to ask the important questions. We''ll make a protagonist out of you yet. Well first off, each time you''ll be reincarnated you will be given pretty accurate information about the story. For example: the main characters, the plot of the original story, etc; however, since you''ll have your memories intact the moment you are born, the information might become obsolete. I will try my best to influence the world in a way so that their will be the least amount of changes in the early stages, but their is still a limit so try your best to mimic the original protagonist. This will increase the likely hood of the story following the original plot. Also, I will sometimes change and interfere with the world to make it a fitting level for you, the "player". Well, I might interfere if you piss me off. Me: Wait, wha-!? CE: Dont interrupt me. Now, as for how to play the game... I''ll assign every player a couple of missions to do for whatever world they reincarnate into. There will be a main mission, side missions, and hidden missions. My advice to you is to try to focus on the main mission first. As for the prizes if you win, they''re pretty much anything you could possibly want. Me: Anything? *gulp* CE: Anything. Women, worlds, adventure, anything... So, did you understand everything so far? Me: ...Give me a moment to come to terms with what you''re saying. Even if most of my memories are gone, something deep inside of me makes me feel like I have to deny my situa- CE: No! That''s the stereotypical denial that almost all human beings face when going through situations such as this! I won''t let it ruin my entertainment!... Sorry about that, I just really need the entertainment, I''ve been bored for far too long. Now, hurry up and man up. This is your reality, so deal with. Like almost any other LITRPG based story, just think ¡°status¡± and it''ll appear as either a window or just as information in your mind. Me: (Might as well¡­ Status.) (B: Mikey was a nickname.) Mike Unknown Vitality: 10Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. Intelligence:10 Agility:10 Strength:10 Immunization:10 Processing: 10 Mutations: Energies: Equipment/Items: Contracted Sentient Life Forms: C-Points: 15000 (Alpha Tester Gift) Next World Is Based On: D.Grayman Me: ¡­ Mind explaining? CE: No problem. Vitality is how strong and full of life your body is which includes your stamina, intelligence is your memory strength/capacity, agility is your speed/flexibility, strength is your muscle density, immunization is your immunity to pathogens/poisons, and processing is your mental ability to process information. I''ve raised all your stats to 10 since that is the very limit for humans to reach without breaking beyond their physical limitations. Me: ...I''m assuming it''s possible to break those physical limitations. CE: It is, which is what I''ll be talking about next. Since you''ve reached the limits as a human being, breaking those limitations as you are now will almost certainly end with your immediate and painful death, this time perhaps permanently. There are 2 ways to break your limits as a human being without a high chance of death. One is through mutations and the other is through energies. Equipment can also help out, but it''s outside help so I wouldn''t really count it as your own power. Oh, also, the higher your stats are, the more likely it is you''ll survive going beyond your capabilities. After all, doing that is still possible, it''s just the risk will be reduced. Me: ...So how do I gain access to enhancements? CE: (grin) This is where things get interesting. Creator points, or C-points for short, are what you will mainly use to gain access to different mutations, energies, and equipment which you can also gain as quest items/enhancements that you will find throughout your adventures. You can also use C-points for other things, but I''ll leave that alone for now. Anyways, that covers mostly everything. Oh, the starting amount I''ve given you is just because you''re the first generation of "players" that''ll be involved in this game I''ve set up. Anything else you want to know? Me: Just one more question I guess¡­ Do I have no one waiting for me back on my old world? CE: Don''t worry, you were all alone. Me: That somehow makes me feel worse... CE: Don''t worry, live and I''m sure you''ll find so many people you''ll care about that you won''t even remember how alone you feel right now. That¡¯s what the ¡®contracted sentient beings¡¯ system is for you know. It''ll allow you to take an unlimited amount of people with you as long as they hold great affection towards you at the time and they agree. Also, the fact that you¡¯re an otaku is something that should help you find great exchanges for yourself. There should really only be 10 or 15 others involved in this game that can be classified as otakus as well. Still, don''t forget that if you don''t fully believe me, you can always just become powerful enough to find out on your own for sure. Me: ...Thank you for giving me this chance. I won''t let you down. CE: Whatever, as long as you keep me entertained (B:*cough* tsundere *cough*). Use your points wisely and look through the exchange system located on your status window to exchange for the things you want. Also, one more thing. Remember that this game is still in its infancy so somethings can easily be added/changed, okay. I am paying you to test it out. I''ll be going now. Me: See you soon. CE: See ya- Oh wait, one last thing. If you don''t get on my bad side, you can ask me questions that you don''t know. I''ll consider answering them. Bye. And like that, Mike was left all alone to think about his future. Chapter 3 RW Chapter 3 POV that will be used from now on... Mike: Now then, let''s see what I should get. (Status: Exchange System.) After thinking this, a feminine voice was heard directly in Mike''s head. It introduced itself and a window popped up in front of him. It contained a search bar and a long list of possible things to purchase. ?: Hello, I am your personal A.I created for you to search through the exchange system. I can also answer questions you may have about whatever you find in there, as well as any general questions that you have. Keep in mind though that I am programmed with the inability to share certain key information with you. At the same time however, I am set to have you as my highest priority, even above that of my creator. Mike: (Wow, for an AI she has quite the voice... I can''t believe I get to hear this voice everyday! CE, you are officially now my best friend! I''m so glad I died young...) Nice to meet you, er... ES: Please just call me ES for now if you cannot think of a proper name... Mike: O-ok, nice to meet you ES. Don''t worry, I''ll be sure to think of a proper name. (Seriously, there has to be some kind of charm magic for her voice to affect me this much... I know that I was pretty perverted since rule 4 is a thing, but I don''t think things were this bad...) Please allow me to browse through the mutations. ES: ...Understood. For some reason, Mike felt as if ES had sounded a bit embarrassed but he just played it off as his own misunderstanding. After a couple of hours of searching and asking ES, Mike came down to his top 3 that should help him survive in his next world. He also found out from ES that he would be reborn to a similar situation as Alan Walker with a parasite-type innocence in his hand. This had made Mike almost rethink what he wanted to get, yet what ES told him made him change his mind. Mike: What!? ES: You can choose to upgrade your current body now and you will be able to switch into it in the world where you reincarnated, or you can choose to upgrade your new body. I advise you to not choose any serious appearance changing mutations if you don''t want to attract attention by showing that you are not entirely human, at least as much as you are not originally supposed to be born with. Also, any stat gains you receive from one body will be transferred to the other. Of course, you will steadily gain them once you are born since it would be strange for a newborn baby to be able to break steel. It is guaranteed that the second you are 5 years old you will have gained all your stat points back. C-points must be used to copy mutations from one body to the other, though they won''t cost much depending on the mutation and compatibility. If mutations or energies are incompatible, then more C-points can be used to stabilize them. Also, enhancements that have to do with the soul are passed on to whatever body you choose since there is only one soul between all of them, unless you get an enhancement that splits your soul up. Mike: Don''t worry, I only want one of me. If there were a second me, even if I knew it thinks exactly like I would, I still wouldn''t want it touching my women (B: We mean no sexism...Well, I don''t at least)...I might be fine if it was shadow clones though. At least I get their memories and I''d be able to satisfy all the needs of my lovers. ES: I like possessiveness¡­ Mike: What was that? ES: Nothing! Mike: Anyways, I think I know what I''ll get now if what you said is true. I''ll get a soul mutation, and what better one than one of the most classic. Shinigami Mutation: C-tier Origin: Bleach Description: Unlocks soul force and a Zanpakuto in its sealed state. Allows for the body to switch in and out of Shinigami form. Costs: 6500 C-points, 4500 if Shinigami Mutation D-tier is already obtained. Once Mike chose to purchase the Shinigami mutation, 6500 C-points were instantly gone, leaving him with 9500 C-points. He was then lifted a few inches off the ground in a beam of light and he felt a strange foreign energy emerge from inside of him. After about 30 minutes, he was placed down and a small 35 centimeter blade appeared in his hand. Mike: So this is my Zanpakuto¡­ ES: If you purchase the Jinzen skill book for 500 C-points, then you should be able to interact with your Zanpakuto more easily. Mike:Oh yeah, I should be able to try and evolve it by getting to know it. That would save a lot on the cost. After purchasing the skill book, a book appeared in front of Mike. The cover read ¡°Jinzen¡±. After touching it, the knowledge was instantly absorbed by him. Although it wasn''t a crazy amount of information, it still gave Mike a major headache. Mike: ES, please tell me about whether or not it''ll hurt before I make the exchange. ES: Sorry, but I''m sure it wasn''t as bad as if you had gained the knowledge before getting your mutation. Mike: That reminds me, what are my stats now? Mike Unknown Vitality: 30 Intelligence:50 Agility:50 Strength:60This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. Immunization:30 Processing: 40 Mutations: Shinigami C-tier Energies: Soul Force Equipment/Items: Contracted Sentient Life Forms: C-Points: 9000 (Alpha Tester Gift) Mike: I''m wayyy stronger than before now. I shouldn''t have much trouble in the D.Grayman world if my stats are like this. Hey, can training help me improve. ES: Yes, but not by as much as you can gain through enhancements. I suggest that you train skill rather than stats.While you can buy knowledge, nothing beats your own insights. Mike: Alright, I''ve still got 9000 left over. Now that I''ve got a weapon besides the innocence I''ll get once I''m born, I''ll focus on getting a different type of energy. I think chakra will work fine for now(That shadow clone jutsu won''t get itself after all... Oh crap! God damn rule 4!!!) Chakra: B-tier Origin: Naruto Description: Kage level chakra amount. Also strengthens body to the minimum level needed to wield it. (Only usable by body that is enhanced with chakra) Costs: 7000(Price reduction due to compatability: New Cost is 5000) C-points Mike: What''s the with the compatibility? ES: Some people have certain affinities towards certain enhancements due to things such as their personality or hereditary. Looking through the data for all the other participants of the game, you''re one of the few that have a compatibility. Mike: Well I''m not complaining about any discounts. Give me. The same light show as last time appeared, except this time the light was brighter and Mike was lifted higher. ES: As expected, you seem to have become much stronger than when you got the shinigami mutation. Mike: Yeah, no kidding. I think I''ll spend the rest of my points on ninjutsu and maybe later on some bloodlines. After that, Mike then bought the shadow clone jutsu for 2000 points, substitution jutsu for 1000 points, a standard henge jutsu for 700 points, 90 points worth of shurikens/kunais, and some chakra paper for 10 points. He had bought everything he wanted and more, but just as he was about to look for something else to buy with his remaining 200 points¡­ ES: Um, actually, could you use those points to make me a real body? Mike: Huh? ES: A feature of the exchange system is the ability to create a humanoid entity within human physical limitations for 200 points. I wasn''t going to ask, but it seemed like you couldn''t decide on anything. I can insert my consciousness into the body and while I''ll still exist even if the body dies, I''ll still have a body of my own. Mike: Sure, why not. It''s just 200 points. ES: Thank you, I love you! Mike: (WTF!? That escalated quickly...) Are you sure, you should already know about rule 4... ES: Mm! I told you, my very soul puts you on the highest pedastal, even higher than our creator. I would never be able to be with anyone else because of this. That''s why I''m fine if there are others , so... will you take responsibility?. Mike: (Holy shit, this woman is a succubus! Okay, quick, weigh the pros and cons. Pros: okay with harem, sexy loyal lover, be with me forever. Cons: I''ll likely lose all shred of will against rule number 4. There is only 1 obvious answer.) Yes. ES: Really!? Mike: Yup, but are you sure you''received fine with it?(Men are truly too weak...) ES: I was made for you, so I don''t care that much. Take responsibility. (B: WARNING, some clich¨¦s will be used throughout the story) Mike: Alright then, I''ll let you decide on how you want to look. ES: Alright, give me a few minutes. After that, Mike closed his eyes and waited for ES to finish creating her body. A few minutes later, he felt soft lips press against his. Surprised, he opened his eyes to see one of the most beautiful women he''d ever seen. He had been preparing himself, but the lower part of his body couldn''t stay calm for long. ES had chosen the overused hourglass figure, but nevertheless, it was still quite devastating when coupled with violet, silky hair, dark red eyes, and a flawless face with a hint of blush on her cheeks. Her teeth were pearly white and she wore a thin purple negligee to match her hair. Did I forget to mention the enormous breasts that were barely small enough to be considered real. At this moment, Mike liked what he saw and was undeniably turned on. ES: Do you like it? (B: WARNING, FROM THIS POINT ON YOU WILL SEE A¡¯S EROTIC FANTASIES COME TO LIFE. SCROLL DOWN IF YOU WISH TO SKIP IT. YOU''VE BEEN WARNED.) At this point, Mike let his instincts take over. He pushed ES onto the bed he had created when he had asked ES if he could create things things in the endless void he was in currently. He was delighted that he could create everything except life withought spending C-points (Food can be created without). He immediately pulled her into his arms and furiously made out with her. Each time their lips separated a moan would escape ES¡¯s throat. She couldn''t help it. Even though Mike was an otaku he still had more experience on this field than her. After making out for who knows how long, the two separated with a string of saliva in between them. Mike then started to unzip the pants that he had been brought into the dimension with and ES gulped as she saw him completely naked and ready for her. After the enhancements, he had become undeniably much more handsome and fit. The same applied to Little Mike, and ES desperately wanted to see his changes as well. Mike then slipped ES out of her negligee and began to focus on suckling her nipples and rubbing her down there. It surprised him when she started to lactate, but it only served to turn him on even more. ES: Mike *pant* please *moan*¡­ Mike accepted her request as he positioned little Mike in front of her entrance and stabbed himself in her just as she managed to orgasm. Mike looked down and saw some red leaking from her. It touched him that she could have made her body without a hymen but chose not to so as to give Mike her first. As thanks, he decided to make it his top priority to have her enjoy the full experience. Mike: Though you say you''ll always have me as number 1 in your heart, I just can''t bring myself to fully believe you. ES: M-mike? Mike: That''s why, I''ll make sure you''ll never forget this night for the rest of your life. ES: W-wait, I just, hyaaaaah! With his declaration Mike started to piston in and out of her. ES was still extremely sensitive so almost every single thrust sent her over the edge. At this point, her tongue was sloshing out of her mouth as she showed how much she enjoyed the treatment Mike was giving her. She was also still lactating, so Mike continued sucking her breasts so as to not let it go to waste. By the end of their first time together, Mike had completely fallen for ES and vowed to give her a happy life. Though he did not know if what he felt was true love, he really didnt care. All he knew was that he would be perfectly happy spending the rest of his life with ES. ES was also of the same mindset, except that she oozed so much love for Mike that onlookers would have sworn that she had hearts for eyes. Once they finished, a sleeping ES had her head on Mike¡¯s chest as she hugged him. They were both very satisfied by the end of their sexy time together. As they lay their basking in the aftermath of sex, Mike once again pledged to live through the game created by CE, follow the 4 rules that defined who he is, and to always come home to ES¡¯s arms. Chapter 4 RW Chapter 4 The first thing he saw when Mike woke up was ES¡¯s beautiful face smiling at him. After they spent the night (Mike couldn''t tell the time in this strange dimension) together, Mike and ES had grown a whole lot close together. That''s why once Mike woke up, ES gave him a long and passionate kiss. Mike was ready to go once again thanks to his enhancements so they once again went for a roll in the hay. After they finished, Mike asked the purple haired girl in his arms who was covered head to toe in his fluids how much time they had before Mike would be reincarnated. After catching her breath, ES said that they''d used up a whole day yesterday getting enhancements and playing around, so now they had 9 days left. ES explained to him that each time he would be about to be reincarnated to another world he would have 10 days to prepare unless he used C-points to extend it by going to a previous world. When Mike asked when he would leave each world, ES told him that he would be given the choice to leave anytime after he completed his main world missions. ES: The world missions are quests assigned to you by CE to award you points. There are side quests that don''t matter if you do them or not but main quests have to be completed or else you face a penalty; however, once you finish them I think you should choose to stay in the current world since you can stay there until the day your lifespan ends and train without any cost. Once it ends, your body from that world will be taken to this dimension at its peak form. Oh right, hidden quests are quests you unlock after doing specific actions. Mike: Won''t the other players get ahead if I stay too long in one world? ES: Nope. Time and space is controlled so that everyone takes and ends there mission at the same time. I don''t know how it works exactly, but I know that much. You can spend way more time than anyone else training but you could still fight someone who''s really only been playing the game for a year. Mike: What about you? ES: I have no intention of having this body grow old. As long as I am connected to this dimension, my body will stay at its peak condition. The best part though is that I can interact with you at real time, so I''ll never let you forget about me(wink). With that, a huge burden was lifted from Mike¡¯s mind. He''d already decided that even if he was gone for thousands of years he''d still remember ES, but now he didn''t have to worry about forgetting her. After all, time is cruel to people, and the reality of the situation was that even though Mike liked ES now, they had not spent much time to get to know one another besides what they talked about yesterday. Mike: Now that I know we''ll always be together, I should start preparing for being reincarnated. ES: Don''t worry, I''ll assist you in any way I can. They went at it once again (B: Really A?) before Mike stopped to seriously train and try to interact with his Zanpakuto using Jinzen. Inner World Mike: So this is where my Zanpakuto lives, huh? It''s pretty peaceful. Inside Mike¡¯s inner world was a calm forest with an orange sky. After wandering around for a while, Mike found a cottage in the middle of a clearing he''d stumbled upon. ?: So, you''re here already, huh? Mike: !!! Hi there, what''s your name? ?: Wouldn''t you like to know. After Mike knocked on the cottage¡¯s door, he had heard a voice coming from behind him. When he turned around, he saw a stunningly beautiful woman with black hair and enchanting green eyes. He also noticed the swishing tail coming from behind her and the dog like ears that were on her head. She also had a sort of bewitching aura surrounding her; however, Mike had just gotten through playing with ES, so it wasn''t like he was gonna push her on the floor or anything. Besides, he''d already guessed her intentions. There was just one thing bothering him¡­ Mike: Why are you female?(Oh god, this better nor mean I''m secretly gay...) Mike hadn''t watched Bleach in a long time, but what he remembered made him think that his Zanpakuto would take the form of a male. ?: Blame your 4th rule. It''s so deeply ingrained into your soul that when I was created, my form was created with your rule in mind. Mike: Can''t say I''m complaining though. (Look at me, 2 days dead and I''ve made connections with 2 beautiful women....) ?: Well, if you prove yourself to me then I guess I''ll let you show me a good time... Mike: Well then, with that kind of motivation I don''t think I''ll lose. With that, they no longer said a word and got ready to fight. The zanpakuto tossed over a plain looking version of its sealed form towards Mike. He caught it and got ready to fight. In all honesty, Mike wasn''t really intending to win the fight, he was intending to test out his skills against her. He''d also tried it and found out that he could use chakra in this world. It was a perfect chance to try and test his metal. The first thing Mike did was get some distance between them. He knew that even if he ran, she''d most likely come after him since she was testing him, but he needed time to prepare. And sure enough¡­ ?: Why the hell did he run!? Puzzled by why he ran, she calmed herself and decided to chase after him. For some reason though, she had a hard time finding him.The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. ?: Why can''t I find him? This shouldn''t make any sense... She had been looking for him for about an hour and yet she found no trace of him. Just as she was about to backtrack and see if she somehow missed him, she caught sight of him out of the corner of her eye. ?: There you are! She immediately leapt at him and stabbed him; however, he immediately disappeared in a cloud of smoke much to her surprise. ?: Wha- She didn''t even get to finish her question before she was held down and stabbed through the back. She immediately winced in pain but she could do nothing. Mike: Thank god that''s over. I was beginning to think that I''d have to hide until all my chakra was depleted. Turns out taijutsu, even if it''s D-tier, pays off. Also, I need more practice with shadow clones, I feel like I can do better. ?: So that''s why you managed to hide from me so easily. I didn''t think Chakra would work here since it''s a foreign element but I guess it does. Mike: Well, it also has to do with the fact that your personality is naturally impatient, otherwise I would have most likely lost. ?: What now? Mike: Now, I''m going to leave since my chakra reserves are almost all gone. Thanks for being a great sparring partner, I''ll be sure to come a lot more often from now. Best regards. I hope I can become worthy enough so that you''ll tell me your name one day. Mike felt that he was leaving his inner world and about to go back to reality. At the last minute though¡­ ?: No need, the name''s Ana. Mike: ...Well then, I hope to have a happy lifetime with you, partner. Ana: You''re quite the smooth talker, aren''t you Mike? I wish I could keep you to myself¡­then again, it''s thanks to your character that we got to meet... Mike: Hm? Could you repeat that last part? Ana: Nothing, see ya! And with those parting words, Mike left the inner world and came back to reality. Reality Once Mike came out of meditation, he was greeted by the face of his purple haired lover. She had been staring at him all morning as he sat in meditation. She''d been worried about him, but was relieved that he only had minor injuries. ES: Hi there sleepy head, you have fun? Mike: Sure, she and I came to an understanding. I even managed to learn her name. I was really surprised when I first saw her though. ES: It''s nice that you managed to meet he-(B: Oh shit.) Mike: Is something the matter? ES: N-Nothing. Was she nice? Mike: She was beautiful. I never expected her to be female tho- ES: That''s nice. Why don''t you tell me over breakfast? Mike: Sure, what are we hav- Mike didn''t even know what hit him. All he knew was that something hit him and he lost consciousness. When he came to, he first panicked and thought something happened to ES. He was half right. ES: Why aren''t you eating, dear? Mike:... He was right to be scared, just that he shouldn''t be scared for his lover, he should be scared of her. ES: Why aren''t you eating? Should I feed you while you tell me all about what happened in your inner world... And with that began a cruel round of torture that lasted the rest of the day. Of course, Mike wasn''t really hurt, just scarred for life; however, he at least managed to pacify ES who thought that Mike was trying to replace her with Ana.(B: I cut out all the torture since A made it wayyy to graphic. Don''t complain, trust me, I saved you from nightmares*shudder*) ES: So that''s all! Why didn''t you say that she was just going to be your 2nd wife. Mike: (She lied! She said she wouldn''t go yandere!) My bad, I thought you would have known that I would never replace you. ES: Then it''s fine, I should learn to get along with my sisters. By the way, I didn''t hurt you, right? Spoiler: Spoiler Flashback ES: Why aren''t you eating my food? Could it be she made you some that you liked better? Mike: No! It''s just that yours is black and is being held in that mithril pot cause it melted throught the normaletal one! ES: Fufufu, why don''t I show you just how much better I am compared to that harlet. Mike: Wait, ES, what are you doing!?
Mike: P-please, stop. You know I love you, right. ES: Fufufu, so why won''t you accept my love? Mike: Because my stats aren''t high enough to survive that!? ES: Silly dear, weren''t you an otaku? Don''t you know that love conquers all? Now, chow down. Ahhhh? Mike: Nooooo! End Mike:...I''m fine, but I think that a little payback is necessary¡­ (B:Dammit A, how horny are you!? 2 days straight and you show both sex scenes!?I give up¡­ WARNING, EXPLICIT CONTENT AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.) ES: Eh? What are you do- ahh! Mike: Just giving a light punishment, that''s all. Mike then began spanking ES as she was now on all fours. He''d already stripped her clothes off, so now he was just enjoying the feeling of her nice warm ass each time he cupped it. ES most likely was an m. She enjoyed the spanking very much as anyone could tell from her hanging tongue and erect nipped which started to lactate. After a few minutes of this repeated play, ES was completely ready for Mike to enter her; however, he wanted to try something different. Mike: Why are you turning around. We''re not doing it that way tonight¡­ That''s right. Tonight, Mike wasn''t gonna use the front door. He had ES suck him off a little before he came once in her mouth. He then left her and positioned himself directly behind her, and trusted as hard as he could. At that moment, ES immediately had a major orgasm as her breath bounced as she arced her back. At this point, the only thought she had was that she wanted Mike to keep doing what he was doing to her until she broke. Mike kept thrusting in and out of her, and she loved every single second of it. By the first time Mike let it out in her back entrance, she''d already came nearly 11 times. At this point, she wasn''t able to support herself and had to be held up by Mike. He wasn''t gonna let her go that easily. By the end of it, the bed sheets were full of signs to demonstrate what had happened. ES was lying on top of Mike completely out of it. she still had little Mike inside of her, so each time she shifted she¡¯d instantly feel good again. The entire time, Mike whispered words of love to her, and in her state she ate it all up. He hoped that she would never feel jealous now that Mike had confirmed with her that she would always have a place in her heart, but only time would tell. As they lay there, ES felt truly blessed that she was created for Mike, and wanted to be with him forever. (B: I¡¯m fucking speechless¡­) Chapter 5 RW Chapter 5 The following morning... After that night of passion, both Mike and ES once more confirmed their feeling for each other. While Mike felt happy (among other things...) for discovering another side to ES other than what he had already known, the person who changed the most in their relationship was ES. ES: Good morning, hubby. Mike: ...Morning ES. Aftet confirmation from Mike that he had feelings for her, she now completely thought of herself as Mike¡¯s wife. She immediately greeted him when he woke up and was already making breakfast. She actually made a non-lethal breakfast and Mike could say with 100% certainty that it was possibly the best meal he ever had. (It is debatable whether or not this is true considering that any edible food would have tasted like honey compared to what he ate yesterday...) After reminiscing about the horrors he had faced yesterday, Mike decided to start practicing his ninjutsu and chakra control. Prior to today, he''d already found out that he was compatible with two elements, wind and lightning, when he used chakra paper to test himself. He could¡¯ve sworn that after the chakra paper split and crumpled it felt a bit damp, but he waved it off as his imagination since it seemed unlikely. It wasn''t like he had access to a jutsu that required the use of the other elements at the moment, so it didn''t really matter.
Mike''s training regimen over the next few days was quite simple. While he had 2 shadow clones practice ninjutsu and chakra control, Mike practiced with Ana in the inner world. She tried to help improve his sword fighting skills and he made a lot of improvement considering he only practiced for 8 days.It was mostly thanks to Ana who guided him along with his increased stats that helped increase his learning speed. He even managed to increase the amount of chakra he possessed by 5%, and the speed by which it increased seemed to increase with each day. His clones even managed to form a rasengan 1/5 of the time. While he still had quite a waus to go in terms of beimg a shinigami and a ninja, his progres was indeed praiseworthy for a person who had just been introduced to such foreign elements.

Now there was only a few seconds left before Mike would be reincarnated into a world similar to D.Grayman. He quickly gave his lover a passionate kiss as he embraced her, and his consciousness was soon gone after he separated from her, leaving only his body suspended in a beam of light. ES still felt his connection to her, so she wasn''t worried that much about him. All she could do was pray that her lover would come back to her safe and sound. ES: ...Be safe.

I feel so small and weak...Oh, that''s right, I''ve been reincarnated. Wow, being a baby is really different than how most novels portray it to be. I can at least hear things, but if anything my hearing is way more sensitive than it was before. Ah! Is this why babies cry!? When I have kids I''ll make sure everyone present for the birth speaks in a low voice... Hey ES, can you hear me? You said I''d still be able to talk to you telepathically.) ES: Are you alright Mike? I can''t see you, but you should have just been born, right? Mike: (Yeah, my visions starting to clear up. Oh, I can understand what they''re saying. It''s in english, right?) ES: Yeah, CE didn''t want people complaining about the language being a waste of time, so for tje first reincarnation, everyone gets born into a place where the dominant language is one they are familiar with. There are some exceptions, but that isn''t important right now. Anyways, how are your surroundings? Mike: (They''re talking as if they want to get rid of me. Seems they want to abandon me just like in the original storyline. My mom''s trying to convince them not to. They say that they''ll let me live here until I''m 5. After that, I''m on my own.) ES: How dare they!? Mike: (It''s alright ES, I can switch forms at any time, right? I''ll just do that if push comes to shove. Until then, I''ll try to stay in this form as much as possible.) ES: ...All right, just remember you''re not alone, you have a w-wife you can talk to. Mike: (*chuckle* Yeah, I''m thankful to have such a thoughtful wife as well. Later on I''ll come visit you, ok?) ES: Yeah, see you soon. I''ll just watch some shows from your old world. Bye Mike. Mike: (Bye, love you. Ah, the connection cut off. Now, what to do... might as well enjoy being a baby.) After Mike stopped talking with ES, he simply enjoyed the warmth of his mother. There was just something about a mother that brought a different feeling of security than when he was with ES¡­ Mike: (I can''t remember what my parents were like, so having one right now is... kinda nice actually. I hope I can protect my mom. My strength feels around... hm...around the strength of a 2 year old child? Eh, close enough. Since I''ll be abandoned by the age of 5 I might not even need to go back to my old form. I should also try to gain control of my innocence, but first, I should take a nap. There''s just something so relaxing about lying on a mother''s chest¡­ Oh yeah, what are the missions I have for this world?)The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. D.Grayman World Missions Mike: (...I kinda saw it coming, but that main quest is gonna be a pain in the ass. The worst part is that even though the mission is at such a high level, it only gives twice the points I got as a starter pack. *sigh* Well, looks like I''ll have to farm as much as possible in order to get the points I need. Oh, looks like they''re finally deciding on my name! I wonder if it''ll be like the original main character of D.grayman. Um... why are they writing down words and putting it in a hat? Hey, I might not be able to see that well, but I swear that paper says "Lilshit" on it! They''re not even trying to diguise it! ...They better hope I get a fairly decent name, or else everyone here, except mom, dies the second I turn 5.) A-hole Uncle: Why should a monster like that even have a proper name! Mike''s Mom: Because that child is mine! Dumb Aunt: It''s lucky enough to not be thrown out on the street, let alone be given an actual name. Grandfather (?): *sigh* How about this, we leave it up to God whether or not the chill gets a decent name. Mike''s Mom: But-! Grandfather (?): Don''t argue, it''ll only make things worse... After arguing on whether or not the family would keep Mike, everyone in the room came to a consensus that they would let Mike''s new name be decided by fate. Though Mike''s mom had begged them to let her name him properly, she knew that at least having a chance was better than certainty. And what better way than by lottery? After everyone wrote down a name, including Mike''s new mom who wrote "Allen" as her choice, they then put the names in a hat and mixed it up, oblivious to the murderous gaze Mike gave them the entire process. After about a minute of shaking, they had Mike''s mother pull a name out of the hat. She seemed quite nervous, and no one could blame her. Though she could call her son by a different name, everyone else would always call him by the name she pulled. What caring mother would want their child to go through that? And so, she prayed to whatever god was watching that they would allow her to pull one of the fairly decent names... In Another Dimension... CE: Well, following the original plot, Allen would be picked from the jumble of names... but it would be fun to mess with the man who called my title stupid. Ah, but then again, he did end up looking at me with such reverence... I''ll save revenge for later, but it also wouldn''t do to give him exactly what he wants... I''ll just choose one of the bearable names other than "Allen". Be thankful, boy. Hope the name doesn''t mess things up... On second thought, it might be better to make things harder for him, hahahaha! Back... Mike: (Oh, she pulled a name out! What is it, what is my name!?) Mike''s Vincent''s Mom: ...Oh thank god it''s normal. Well then, I guess your name from now on will be "Vincent". Mike: (...Not Allen? WTH? Where did that name even come from? I was so sure "Allen" would be the only normal name since no one but mom seems to like me because of my left arm. Hey, CE answer me! I thought you would make the plot go as it would normally.)
CE: Sorry, my bad. Still, it''s not like it really matters all that much, just deal with it.
Mike: (...I guess it doesn''t... I''ll just lie about my identity when I meet the exorcists. Still... who knows if not having the same name will affect the plot somehow...*gulp*) Chapter 7 RW Chapter 7 POV: Mike(Vincent) I am currently 4 years old and have almost all my original stats back. At the beginning, the people in my family wanted to disown me due to the innocence in my arm, but I''ve managed to gain their approval... not, they''re absolutely terrified of me. About a year ago, bandits came attacking the small town I was living in. They were pretty brutal and my family would have most likely died without me. Over the time I''ve lived as Vincent (still kinda scared at how the name might change the plot), I''ve come to gain some control over my left arm. This is mostly due to the fact that I know what is in my arm. The original protagonist of D.Grayman only managed to discover his innocence when he turned his adoptive father into an akuma and it reacted due to his wish to vanquish akuma. I knew exactly what my innocence was and I constantly tried to communicate with it, allowing me to eventually gain enough control to at least transform it into its 1st stage as a giant metal hand. Of course, I made sure to practice this when no one else was around. This allowed me to get the jump on the bandits and save my family. It was a gamble that they''d feel more thankful than fearful, and I completely lost the bet... I kinda wish CE had added a luck stat to the system...Well, at least their were some pros to being feared. From then on, the rest of my family stopped treating me like I wasn''t human and I managed to stay with my mom, who was the only one that was kind to me since birth. This might sound like a happy ending at first, but just let me finish. The reason they stopped mistreating me is because they began to ignore me entirely. They avoided me and my mom like the plague. I''m pretty sure that if I hadn''t revealed my strength during the bandit attack, they would have started beating us at some point. Just the thought of that made me want to beat everyone in the village shitless, but I managed to pacify myself. Over the last few years, besides gaining control over the innocence in my hand, I''ve also spent time with ES in the other dimension using my old form. We''re so close now that I''ve already started calling her my wife. She used to blush a bit, but now she only shows a bright smile. I still have no idea if what we have is love, but it''s enough to build a successful "marriage", so it counts in my book. I''ve also made progress with my shinigami training. Ana¡¯s training helped a lot when it came to strengthening my soul which in turn helps give me better control of my innocence. I honestly didn''t think that becoming a shinigami would help me better control my innocence when I picked it. Ana¡¯s also accepted being mine now... Alright, so maybe she isnt at that levelyet,but she''ll soon be calling me her hubby *chuckle*(B: He hasn''t done anything yet, he still needs to subjugate her by defeating her in reality as per zanpakuto rules.)If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Ninja training has also been going along nicely. I found out that when I go back to my old body that I left in the other dimension, my shadow clones don''t disappear once I go back to my reincarnated body. They can keep practicing and once they disappear I get their memories. Like this, my ninja skills won''t deteriorate over time and I can focus on my shinigami and innocence training. Lately, rumors have been spreading around town about monsters heading this way. I''m guessing the akuma are coming, so this should be a perfect time to gain some C-points. Oh yeah, here''s my stats. It seems that my intelligence and processing stayed the same since I was born. Mike Unkown(Vincent) Vitality: 35 Intelligence:80 Agility:65 Strength:70 Immunization:40 Processing: 60 Mutations: Shinigami C-tier Parasitic Innocence (1st stage) Energies: Soul Force Faith Energy (Chakra counts only for old body) Equipment/Items: Zanpakuto-Ana(Shikai level) Contracted Sentient Life Forms: ES- Exchange System A.I C-Points: 0 Chapter 8 RW Chapter 8 Regular POV A month after the rumors of monsters heading towards the town where Vincent(Mike) lived in began to spread, the akuma finally arrived. At this time, the streets were filled with mass hysteria as everyone ran with all they had in the opposite direction. Many people were already dead, yet the only reason people were still alive was because of a small figure that seemed to be flickering through the crowd. It was Vincent who was having mixed feelings about what was happening to the town. He was happy to receive all the points he was collecting, but he still didn''t like the fact that so many people were dying, even if most of them treated him unjustly due to his left hand. Before Vincent left his house, he had told his mom to run away and only come back if she received word that the town was safe. Though Vincent''s mom knew that he had been a bit more intelligent than your average kid, she still thought of him as only a unfortunate boy. She tried to reason with him, but Vincent said he had tofarm save everyone. Soon, the rest of his familty, comprised of his aunts, uncles, etc, came barging in and had to drag his mother away. They told her as she screamed bloody mary that if the boy wanted to stay, then they should let him. Obviously they were hoping to get rid of him, but they were too scared of him to say it outloud... Vincent watched them until they turned around a street corner before he then transformed his arm and went into his shinigami mode. He then proceeded to hunt akuma after akuma which brings us to his current situation.
At this moment, Vincent was completely surrounded. Vincent: So, I''m gonna guess that this is all of you? Clearly more than 100 akuma surrounding Vincent. There was mostly lvl1¡¯s with some lvl 2¡¯s and a single lvl3 leading them. If Vincent didn''t have his current abilities and a plan, then he most likely would have long been dead. Akuma lvl3: Hahaha! There''s nowhere left to run away now! We''ve got you completely surrounded. Honestly, you''ve been a bad little boy. You need to be punished. Though it was surprising for someone of your age to be so adept at wielding innocence, that just makes it all the more important to get rid of you early on. Who knows, the secrets on your body might earn us some rewards... Vincent looked at the akuma who just spoke to him and smirked. Vincent: 100+ akuma to take down a single 4 year old child¡­ The Millennium Earl must be so proud of you. Akuma lvl3: You damn brat! Open fire! At their commander''s order, the akuma immediately shot at Vincent. Vincent immediately went to action and jumped from akuma to akuma, killing 1 every few seconds whether they be lvl1''s or lvl2¡¯s. This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there. Akuma lvl3: How!? This kid isn''t a beat, he''s a freaking monster... Vincent payed him no mind. He was currently fighting at his maximum power. Unbeknownst to the akuma, Vincent was also currently in his shinigami mode, allowing for soul energy to boost his stats further alongside the faith energy his innocence grants him. Both energies were specifically meant for fighting the paranormal, so they were the perfect help Vincent needed to fight the akuma. Vincet: Gift of Life, Unseal! After the chant, his Zanpakuto changed into its Shikai form which was about the same length as before except that there were vines covering the blade and connecting it to Vincent''s hands. The blade also seemed to have become a lot sharper and seemd to sometimes change length by a few inches. Not even a few minutes after and there was less than half the original akuma left. There was only the lvl3 and a few lvl2¡¯s; however, the fight seemed to have taken a toll on Vincent. He seemed to be a little out of breath and looked to be soon hitting his limit. Akuma lvl3: Ha! You''re almost down boy, keep firing! Obeying their superior¡¯s command, the akuma charged/fired at Vincent. Seeing this, Vincent knew the only way he was gonna survive this is if he used all his cards. So when he saw the akuma attacking, he used his Shikai''s special ability. Vincent: Nature''s Rage! The vines that were previously immobile suddenly shot out at an unbelievable speed and hit every akuma except the lvl3 who managed to dodge at the last second. After a brief pause, every akuma that was hit immediately died, freeing the trapped souls. Stil... the battle was far from over. Akuma lvl3: You little shit! You almost killed me! Ah, you seem worn out. Did that last attack wear you out? Oh, this is perfect. Looks like it''s the end of the road for you. I''m sure killing you will make my masters extremely happy. The lvl3 akuma charged at Vincent who was at the moment powerless. Vincent saw the akuma getting closer each second and time seemed to slow down. At that moment, with death appearing right in front of him, Vincent''s mind went blank, completely forgetting about the fact that he could switch bodies or just teleport himself into his dimension to defend himself. Vincent: (Is this really it? Is this how far my promise to ES and Ana goes? No! I refuse this end! Move! Move!) . . . (Genetic Constraint Unlocked...Jk) At this moment, with death so close once again, Vincent felt his left hand which had returned to normal and was holding his Shikai throb. All of a sudden, a bright light appeared from his left hand. Going by instinct and with his somehow renewed strength, Vincet slashed at the charging akuma. Before the akuma could even react, he was immediately cut in half. When Vincent came back from the strange state he had gone into amd realized what he had just done, his strength seemed to fade away. He took a look at his left hand to see that his Shikai was absorbed into his arm so that it looked like a single sword was coming out of it. His arm wasn''t in its giant hand mode, but it looked metallic and seemed to have green glowing roots growing inside of it. He also noted that the length of the blade was almost the same if not more than the height of his 5 year old body. Vincent barely caught sight of the image before the bright green light from before flashed again. When it went away, his arm changed back and his hand was currently holding his zanpakuto in its sealed state. The last few things Vincent managed to catch sight of before he fainted were the random notification windows that popped out in front of him. Hidden Side Quest Triggered: Save the Town = 1100 69 lvl1 Akuma ¡Á 10 42 lvl2 Akuma ¡Á 50 1 lvl3 Akuma ¡Á 500 57 humans saved ¡Á 1 Total = 4447 C-points Chapter 9 RW Chapter 9 In the middle of a street that had marks suggesting a great battle had taken place, a young boy was lying unconscious on the cold hard ground. This young boy was Vincent, and he had lost consciousness after he had experienced his second life and death situation. There was no one else there except him. Well, there was this random clown walking towards him... If Vincent was awake, he would have freaked because it turns out he had an unnatural phobia of clowns. He would have probably fainted straight away if he knew that the clown was actually touching his forehead with its palm. This went on for a few minutes, with the clown stroking the young boy''s forehead... Clown (?) : There, that should have transferred all of Nea''s memories into the boy. Hmm? What''s this? The clown looked at the locket that was given to Vincent by his mother. It was a very simple locket, with only the name "Vincent" engraved on it. The clown opened it up, and inside was a picture of a 4 year old Vincent from a year ago. This startled the clown, as he began to feel that something was amiss. Clown (?) : ...His instructions were to find a boy by the name of Allen who had a monster-like left arm, so I should have gotten the right one, I mean, there aren''t many boys that look like this to begin with... ? : Over there, the battle looks like it went towards that direction! Clown (?) : ...How unfortunate, if they see us together, you might not be able to go on and become an exorcist. You''ll need the support of the Black Order in the future, since they are a pretty strong force. I was planning to take you with me, but I think you''ll be safer with them. *sigh* I truly do pity you, especially if you aren''t the person I was searching for. Well, enjoy your life, at least until the memories consume you... The boy was once more left alone in the street until a group of 3 turned around the corner and saw him lying there unconscious.
In a regular room that seemed to belong to an inn of some kind, a boy that looked barely old enough to be 5 years old had just woken up. Vincent: ...Where am I? When Vincent woke up, he had no idea where he was. He tried opening up a telepathic call with ES and the call connected. ES: Mike! Vincent: (ES, what happened once I passed out?) ES: When you didn''t check in with me 2 days ago, I was worried sick. I knew you weren''t dead yet, but I was still worried sick about you! Vincent: (Alright, I''m sorry I made you worry. I didn''t think the fight would be that dangerous. It seems like this area is safe so I''ll just leave my body here for now, wouldn''t want anyone to freak out. I''ll come meet you right now.) With but a thought, Vincent arrived in the other dimension where his old body and his wife were at. When he arrived, he immediately noticed that he was being held in his wife''s embrace and that his shirt was a little wet. He then took note that ES¡¯s eyes were red and puffy, and he immediately felt guilty. He held up her face as he cupped her cheeks and gave her a gentle kiss on the lips which then evolved into a passionate kiss which then evolved into playing around on the bed for an hour or two. It could be said while looking at the two as they basked in the afterglow of sex that Mike more than made up for the days he had missed. After they calmed down a little more, ES asked Mike about what happened during the fight 2 days ago. Mike then explained how the battle was a little harder than expected and how his thoughts at the last second caused a change between his innocence and zanpakuto. ES was completely shocked about what happened.Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more. Es: You fused two separate enhancements !? Mike: Yeah, what''s wrong? Did I cause something bad to happen. ES: No, it''s just that CE never planned to implement the ability to fuse enhancements like that until the 5 solo player worlds were completed. He never thought anyone would be able to attempt it, much less succeed. Ask Ana about what happened, she might be able to tell you why the fusion was possible and maybe even how to perform it again. If you can master it, you''re individual power will surely have a huge increase in strength. Mike: Alright, then I''ll go see her right now while I can still be allowed to sleep in the other world. Who knows when I''ll get another chance to come here for a long period of time. With enough said, Mike sat down in meditation and entered his inner world to talk to Ana about what had happened. Inner World In a few seconds, Mike saw the familiar orange sky and endless forest. Mike: Ana! Ana: You called. After calling for Ana, Mike immediately received a reply. He looked behind him and saw the familiar breathtaking vixen. Mike: You think you could tell me about what that fusion was all about? Ana: Sure, it''s not like you could use it at a whim as you are now anyways. All you need to do is get stronger and getting stronger will allow me to fully recognize you as being worthy of me. Mike: I''m looking forward to that day. Mike gave a lecherous smirk as he made that comment. Ana¡¯s cheeks flushed a bit. Ana: What a coincidence, I feel the same. Mike: Well, we are the definition of "soulmates", so was there any other option? They had already begun to accept one another, but the only thing keeping them off each other is that Mike''s strength is still inadequate. To completely make Ana his, he''d have to defeat her in reality. Ana: *cough* Anyways, the reason the fusion occurred is because she initiated the fusion after reacting to your strong emotions. Mike: She? Ana gave a small smirk in satisfaction. Ana: You know while the worlds may be similar, the world you reincarnated into is still a world created by CE meant for you. Don''t you think he''d give you a little leeway for rule number 4. Mike: I really do need to thank him when I get the chance, don''t I? (But then again, it''s because of him I''m losing all self-control I have...) Ana: I would, he''s the reason I got to meet you after all. The two stared at each other¡¯s eyes for a little while longer with a trace of longing. Mike: Soon, Ana. (It''s times like these that make me feel like every woman in existence is aggressive...) Ana: I''ll be waiting. With refueled motivation, Mike left his inner world determined to become strong enough to make Ana his. Reality After returning to reality, Mike gave ES a quick kiss good bye and said he''d see her later. After she said bye, Mike left back to his reincarnated body in the other world. Chapter 10 RW Chapter 10 Vincent opened his eyes once more to see that he was now back in his reincarnated body. He looked to the side of his bed and spotted some people smiling at him. They were a girl who looked barely over 10, an extremely buff man, and a man who gave off a ¡°don''t talk to me" vibe. Russell(buff guy): Hello there, how are you doing little guy, name''s Russell. Sophie(Little Girl): He''s so cute! My name''s Sophie, nice to meet you! John(Other Person): ...John, so, who are you kid? Sophie: John, stop it, can''t you see you''ll frighten him! Russell: Now, now, settle down you two. John is in the right to ask for such important information, but you did come on a little too strong. Watch. Hello little boy, could you tell us your name so that we can bring you back to your family? Vincent: ...My family all died in the akuma attack.(Mom would probably be better off without me...) Russell: ...I''m sorry for your loss. Sophie: You poor boy¡­ John: ¡­ Vincent: Aren''t you also around my age, Sophie? (B: *cough* flag master *cough*) Sophie: I''m 16 despite how short I look. Vincent: ...Anyways, so what now?(Legal loli in a few years!) Russell: Now you can tell us a little bit about yourself. Vincent: ...Alright, the name''s Vincent. I''m 5, wait, almost 5 in another week or so. Ah. (Oh shit! I forgot that I decided that when I met exorcists I''d tell them my name was Allen Walker!!! Wait, come to think of it, shouldn''t I have met Mana by now? What is going on with the plot!?) Russell: Something the matter? Vincent: N-no. (Dammit CE, do your job!)
CE: I am doing my job. It''s just something happened beyond my control... teehee!
Vincent: (...) Russell: ...Anyways, I''ve noticed you talk quite fluently for your age. I have never seen a kid your age talk in such a mature way without having at least some trouble speaking...If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Vincent: ...My mother praised me as a genius. Russell: ...That''s good and all, but don''t you think it might have something to do with your left hand? Everyone''s gazes went towards Vincent''s left hand which was quite abnormal to look at, what with its strange color and the giant cross embedded in it. Vincent: You mean this? Everyone Else: !!! Vincent raised up his arm and transformed it as he talked. Luckily, he could control the general size of his anti-akuma weapon, so he didn''t look mismatched with his child-size body when compared to it. This served perfectly as a way to shock his interrogators. Russell: Y-you can control your innocence? Vincent feigned ignorance since it would look weird for a child to know what innocence was. Vincent: Is that what it''s called? Sophie: Amazing, I can rarely use mine and it''ll drain me after a few minutes... John: You''re no ordinary boy, that''s for sure. Vincent: By the way, who are you guys and what do you want with me? Russell: The best thing for you is to come with us. We''re exorcists, so we can teach you how to become one of us and give proper training to a rare talent such as yourself. Who knows, you can probably become the youngest exorcist in history. Though it''ll probably only be officially since it would look bad for our organization to send out children to fight... Vincent: I see¡­ I might as well go with you since it looks like the best option for m- John: Hold on, I''ve just got one more question for you. There was signs of battle having taken place when we found you. We''re you involved in it? Vincent: ¡­ My hand did it on its own. I just felt it transform without my permission, and then I lost consciousness soon after. (I''m not exactly lying, she did initiate the fusion according to Ana...) John: ...Alright then, can you move out into the hallway for a minute? Vincent: Sure. Vincent left the room, but he didn''t forget to strain his ears and listen in on the conversation. In the Room Russell: So did he lie? John: Only about his family and about not knowing what innocence was. I have no idea how he knows about innocence though... As for his family, he most likely didn''t want to drag them into whatever is going to happen to him, smart kid. Sophie: See, I told you guys that he''s a nice boy. (B:F*cking rule 4.) John: What''s with you? You''ve never taken a liking to a guy before. Sophie: He''s not a man, he''s a boy who''s probably been through a lot because he''s different from others. I know what it''s like to be different¡­ Russell: Alright, enough. So you guys agree we should bring him back to headquarters, right? He''s too dangerous to leave alone if his innocence acts without his judgement and as exorcists, it is our duty to bring back innocence to headquarters. We''re already lucky we didn''t have to deal with some difficult brat... The other 2 nodded in affirmation. Russell: Then it''s decided, we leave tomorrow morning. We''ll walk towards Lysa and ride the train from there to headquarters. We should arrive within 3 days. Alright, let''s go tell our future comrade. Outside Vincent: Good thing I didn''t lie about the last part, it would be troubling to explain how a kid not even 5 years old has the ability to defeat a lvl3 akuma. Who would have thought that John had the ability to differentiate lies from truths... As Vincent was having a self-monologue, the door to the room opened and out came the 3 exorcists. Vincent: When do we leave? Russell: Tomorrow morning we leave for Lysa, a town a few miles north of here. From there, we''ll take a train to headquarters and get you on track to becoming an official exorcist. You''ll be our comrade in the future. Vincent: Cool, well, good night...Oh, just to let you know, I''m a heavy sleeper, but I always wake up on time. Sophie: ...But weren''t you just in a coma? Vincent payed her question no mind. He walked back into the room he came from and shut the door. Nothing was going to get in the way of his and ES¡¯s playtime. Chapter 11 RW Chapter 11 The next morning, Vincent woke up and left his room. Before he had left his dimension though, he had made sure to leave his 8 daily shadow clones to practice his ninjutsu and chakra control for him. The result of his clones¡¯ training were quite satisfying to say the least. A couple of years ago, his chakra had increased enough to create 8 shadow clones, each with enough chakra to continue their training for an entire day. Soon he would even be able to have 10and maybe even 12! While that may seem like a small number, he was having them train for a whole day, a time period not to be casually used. The speed at which they trained helped him out to exhaust his chakra and then replenish it, causing his chakra reserves to increase at a pretty brisk pace. In terms of jutsu, he had his clones make shadow clones of themselves and they then have those clones look through Naruto the anime and manga so as to try and gain insights into the different types of jutsu instead of just buying them with C-points. The results were earth shattering. It seems that the reason for his high compatibility with chakra was making itself known once more. Just by looking at explanations given in the source material, the clones managed to replicate the jutsu and even create their own unique ones. Of course, it took a few months to see any results, but it was still an incredible discovery. For example, one of the clones managed to replicate a rasengan. He then tried adding the lightning element to it and after a lot of failed attempts, he managed to get a result that was a jutsu that carried the same amount of juice as a chidori and yet the same amount of destructive power as a rasengan. Mike wasn''t good with names, so he just called it ¡°rasendori¡±. (B: Best naming sense.) The juts still had some kinks to work out, but it was a start. Another clone remembered how the chakra paper felt damp during the initial chakra test, and now that the amount of chakra and chakra control had improved, it decided to use one of the remaining nine chakra papers from the 10 pack. He found out after testing it out that Mike was actually compatible with water as well. It seems that Mike just hadn''t trained enough to make his natural affinity to water noticeable yet. This got the clones thinking that maybe if they trained in the other elements then they could possibly gain an affinity with them. The clones haven''t had a breakthrough with this concept yet, but they are still trying to achieve it as they train. Also, Mike decided to buy the mind transfer jutsu of the Yamanaka Clan. He thought that, "what if the clones could transfer their minds to his body and train his taijutsu?" The results were a success. As long as Mike went back to being Vincent, his clones had no problem taking control of his body and training with it. As long as the clone¡¯s body didn''t disappear, then it didn''t matter how much Mike''s body was put to the test. (B: Here''s the description of the Jutsu. Only ranked if there are higher levels, not based on their power. Cost is a better indicator of how strong/useful.) Mind Transfer Jutsu Origin:Naruto Description: Yamanaka Clan''s jutsu that allows for the ability to take control of another''s body. Consciousness transfers to target¡¯s body. User will still die if original body is killed. If mental strength is stronger, thenjoy transfer will be unsuccessful and the user will suffer rebound. Cost: 3000 C-points The ninja training was by far the one with the most progress out of the 3 types of enhancements Mike had gained. The only downside though is that Mike couldn''t really use it against his enemies in this world since he would be mostly fighting akuma. If he used anything other than his shinigami or anti-akuma weapon to defeat them, their souls would most likely be lost forever... Back to the main plot... After Vincent left his room, he went downstairs to where his 3 escorts were happily chatting and eating breakfast. They noticed Vincent walking towards them and greeted him.Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator. John: Took you long enough. Sophie: Calm down, we barely woke up 20 minutes ago. It''s not like we had to be up by a certain time. Did you sleep well Vincent? Vincent: Yeah, it was a pleasant night. Russell: Hey Vincent, why don''t you order some food. It''s on us. Vincent: (Well, they''re the ones that offered...) Sure, thanks. 10 minutes later¡­ Everyone Other than Vincent: ¡­. Vincent: Thanks for the food, hm, what''s the matter? Russell: ...I see you have a big stomach. *cough* Anyways, let''s start walking towards Lysa. Oh yeah, Vincent? Vincent: Yes? Russell: Why is your hair turning white? It was barely noticeable yesterday, but now it''s a whole strip of your hair. Vincent: Wha-!? Vincent ran back upstairs to the room he stayed in last night and checked his image in a mirror. His hair was starting to turn albino... Though Vincent had been shocked by the discovery, he didn''t really have any way to find out what was the cause. Though he speculated that he had somehow been implanted with the memories of Nea Walker, he didn''t know for sure. He tried asking ES, but she didn''t know. He then tried asking CE, but all he got was this pop up.
CE: It would be cheating if I told you...
It seemed that CE was refusing to give him answers. Frustrated, all Vincent could do was put the matter to the back of his mind... 2hours Later on a Train About to Disembark from Lysa Station¡­. Russell: So Vincent, you excited to go to headquarters and get started on your path to becoming an exorcist? Vincent: What exactly do I have to do to become an official exorcist anyways? Russell: Since you''re so young, you''ll most likely first be tested by someone at headquarters to evaluate your potential and then be assigned to either a group or a teacher. Most likely though is that when you go into headquarters, your innocence will be examined. Don''t worry, it''s not like it''ll hurt a lot. Vincent: (At least Kamui from the original world won''t be messing with my arm... probably. He should still be too young to be allowed to mess with me even if he is here.) Sophie: I''m sure you''ll be placed as an apprentice to a high level exorcist considering your talent. We''ll miss you, so don''t forget about us once you''re famous. (hug) Over the last 2 hours, Vincent had made quite the impression of Sophie. He was younger than her by about 7 years when she first joined the Black Order, and yet he still managed to act way more mature than she who had been hailed as a genius. Also, since he was also being made to join the Black Order at such a young age, she could easily relate to his situation, making it so that she grew a whole lot closer to Vincent than her two companions. After all, the majority of exorcists that joined the Black Order did so in their mid-teens at the earliest. Only someone who had resonated with innocence during their childhood could understand the pain and grief that came with doing so... Chapter 12 RW Chapter12 After 3 days of riding the train, the group of 4 finally made it to the last station in their journey. Now all they had to do was walk up a mountain and they''d make it to their destination. During these 3 days, nothing much happened except for Vincent deepening his bond with Sophie, John, and Russell. Well, that and Vincent''s hair slowly turning albino. Almost half of his original tan-brown hair had been converted to white by this point. In anime, the hair-style would be considered "bad ass looking", but in real life, people just looked at him as if he was a weirdo or a some kind of punk. This didn''t bother Vincent that much though, since he had been looked at worse because of his left arm. Besides, ES had said the hair looked cool on him!
After the 3 days of riding the train, the 4 travelers had then walked an hour up a mountain. During the walk, Vincent learned something important. Something that should have crushed his spirit into pieces. Something that a certain group of men feared with all their being... . . . His legal loli was already taken... It was obvious from the way she talked with John that the two had a "special" connection. Despite the fact that they sometimes fought, Vincent would always see them make up in the end, with both of them blushing and fidgeting most of the time. It should have been utter torture for the protagonist of our story to have been ntr''d so early on, and yet, Vincent just let it happen. You see, while Vincent might be a very lewd man who dreamed of acquiring a goal that many men secretly share, he still had a shred of logic left in him when it came to his love life. Even though he had accepted his desire, he still retained a certain set of morals that allowed him to pass through the current crisis unhindered for the most part. For example, in the case of ES, the reason he accepted her in the beginning may have been largely attributed to his lust, but it was also because he knew that she would never be able to accept anyone else. To live a life where you would be forced to spend years with the one you love and yet not have them reciprocate your feelings, would be a fate worse than death. That''s why Vincent decided to accept the poor girl. He did not know if he could ever truly love her, even if he was to live several lifetimes together with her; however, he wanted to at least give it a try which is why he would always try his best to spend time with her and keep her happy. In the case of Ana, the same situation could be applied. She came from his soul, and was born from his secret "wish". They would always have a deep connection with one another, one that probably no other bond could ever compare to. Though it might have been possible for Ana to have eventually loved someone else, it would make things awkward for Vincent since she would still be connected to him... so, taking into account rule 4 and all these factors, the logical conclusion was for Vincent to try and add her into into his.. er... "family"(harem). Love experts throughout history had always said love cannot be forced, but at the same time, they also said it was something that could be grown. Vincent wanted to see if they were telling the truth... As for Sophie, well, she was just a beautiful girl who sympathized with Vincent''s situation. He had known all along that even though she was pretty and had a nice personality, that didn''t automatically make her his. Rule 4 might have changed his standards, but it didn''t make him a full on vegetable. After realising his chances with her would be 0, he just went for the next best thing. Having her be his "elder sister". After all, Vincent had no problems whatsoever having such a beautiful older sibling...
The trip up the mountain wasn''t as bad as when the original Allen Walker climbed up his mountain, but the area where the Black Order headquarters was located in looked like it came out of a horror movie. It had dim lighting and was hidden inside a light fog. It really didn''t give off the "good guy" vibe. Vincent: So this is exorcist headquarters... It''s way scarier in real life. Russel: It''s not that bad, it''s mostly just to scare off normal people. Well, let''s go inside. You aren''t going to become an exorcist any time soon if you stand out here the whole time. Come on. After they reached what seemed to be a door with a stone face on it, Russell asked for permission to come inside.Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. Vincent: (Just by looking at the door, I can tell this isn''t the original headquarters Allen Walker went to. This either means that they remodel in the future or its one of the differences between this world and its counterpart.) Just as Vincent finished his thoughts, the stone door came to life and looked at them as if it was analyzing them. Stone Face: Scan in progress. Please don''t move, this will determine whether or not you are an enemy. After waiting around for a few minutes, the 4 travelers were allowed to go inside the building. Vincent was worried that he might not be allowed to go inside since the scan might show that his soul is different from a normal person, but in the end, the scan showed nothing strange about him other than the innocence in his left arm. After they entered, the group was soon greeted by a man with black hair and dark blue eyes. Jack: Hi there, the name¡¯s Jack. I''m basically the head here at the European Branch headquarters. So Russell, who''s the new guy. Vincent: (Seems like this really is the same part of the world as the original D.Grayman.) Hi, my name¡¯s Vincent. I''m here to become an exorcist. Jack: Well you''re a little too young to become one, don''t you think? Looking at your arm, I can see that you possess innocence, but that isn''t everything you need to become an exorcist. Vincent: Then what should I do? Jack: Well, let''s first examine your arm to take a look at your inno- ?: Jack, why''s there a kid here? As Jack was just about to lead Vincent somewhere, a bishounen (pretty boy) appeared from a separate hallway. He was a small boy with girlish features and a sword strapped to his hip, sheathed in a scabbard that contained strange runes that seemed to be constantly shifting. Jack: Oh, Alexis. You came just in time. I have someone here who''s your age and will most likely be staying here for a while. I know there''s not anyone your age here, so he can be your friend. Aren''t you lucky to have such a thoughtful big bro- Alexis: Why would I want a brat to hang out with when I could use the time to train? Vincent: You look only a few years older than me though. Aren''t you also a brat.(Who is this? I don''t remember anyone that looked like this in either the anime or the manga.) Alexis: What was that! Just because I''m 9 doesn''t mean I''m a brat. I''m more mature than most people that live here! Jack: Now, now, settle down. We need to examine Vincent''s innocence and then have one of the exorcists here test his abilities. Now, let''s get a move on. Alexis: Hold on a moment. If you need someone to test the kid, I can do it. I need the practice, and for some reason my sword won''t calm down as long as I''m near him. It seems like the there''s more to him that meets the eye. Jack: ...Sure, why not. It''ll give us a better insight to the capabilities of his innocence. We can also heal him afterwards while we examine him. Good luck Vincent. Alexis might seem as a kid as well but it would do you good to fight at your best. I''m assuming you can since you have the same aura as my younger sibling. Vincent was surprised that Jack had picked up on how he was different, but shrugged it off since he had learned that he knew a child with the same level of maturity as himself. After moving through a series of hallways, the group of 6 eventually found themselves in a large, roofless room with an arena in the middle of it. The arena was only a block of stone about 100 meters square in area and a height of 2 feet. It was well maintained save for the few cracks that seemed to tell the tales of fierce battles. After arriving there, Alexis jumped about 10 feet away and landed on the stone arena. Vincent also jumped the same distance and landed on the platform. This surprised everyone other than Alexis who seemed to be excited at the thought of a fight. After both Alexis and Vincent went to their respective positions, they got ready to fight. Alexis pulled out his sword that was in the golden sheath, and it started to make a strange sound. Vincent immediately recognized the sound that came straight out of an anime as something that is made when an object vibrates at a high frequency; however, this wasn''t all that occurred. The golden sheath started to glow and changed into a small circular disk that started to revolve around Alexis, giving off the impression that it would protect him. Vincent didn''t stay idle either. He stared straight at Alexis''s eyes, which seemed to be around his height, and started to prepare. Despite being born with the same genes as Allen Walker, he still had his increased stats which helped develop his body to look like that of a 6, 7 year old child which was enough to match the small Alexis. He then had his arm instantly shift into its giant metal hand form. His anti-akuma weapon was about more than half the size of his body, and had an intimidating aura around it. Though, this wasn¡¯t all there was to it. Vincent had also found out some interesting things during his conversations with Ana, and he intended to test them out and see if what she said was true or not. After the both of them called out their anti-akuma weapons, Jack signaled them to start the match. The second he did, both sides became a blur as they engaged each other to determine who was the stronger of the 2. Chapter 13 RW Chapter 13 Alexis was currently fighting Vincent, and he was losing. Badly. The fight started out even and halfway through it Alexis started to gain an advantage. Vincent had been fighting with his anti-akuma weapon still in its metal arm form at the time, so all Alexis had to do was slash at Vincent. While it might seem anti-climactic, the cutting power of Alexis''s sword was overpowered. It just had to touch Vincent¡¯s anti-akuma weapon and it would cut through it like butter. If it wasn''t for Vincent''s high stats, he would have long been defeated. At the halfway point of the battle, Vincent managed to gain enough distance from Alexis to attempt what Ana had told him about. Luckily, his anti-akuma weapon wasn''t damaged enough to not be able to attempt it. Vincent: (She said all I have to do is wish it¡­ Form change: Saber!) After Vincent called out in his mind and fully focused on his left hand, his call was answered. Just as Alexis was about to slash at Vincent''s exposed anti-akuma weapon, the familiar green light was emitted from it. At the last second Alexis''s sword was about to hit, Vincent''s anti-akuma weapon shape shifted from its standard metal form into a sort of lightsaber one. Because of this, Alexis had his sword stopped right before it managed to even cut anything. Alexis: ...So you''re finally going all out, huh? Vincent: I didn''t know whether or not it''d work. Alexis: ...I don''t like being used as a test subject. After the short conversation between the two, Alexis finally realized that his sword wouldn''t be cutting through Vincent''s anti-akuma weapon anymore and decided to retreat and think up another plan. This might have given him a chance if Vincent hadn''t guessed what he was doing. While trying to gain distance from Vincent, Alexis suddenly felt a premonition of danger. As soon as he felt it, he had the metal disc that floated around him place itself in front of him and enlarge itself. No sooner than when the disc stopped enlarging itself did the danger that he had sensed occurred. Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. He wasn''t able to see in front of him, but he sure as hell heard the impacts that hit the metal disc. Once he heard the sounds stop, he had a hole large enough to see through appear in the metal disc. What he saw on the other side surprised him. Vincent¡¯s anti-akuma weapon seemed to have changed into the form of a cannon with wings of light surrounding it. After this, Vincent immediately charged at Alexis at a speed that caught him off guard. Previously, Vincent hadn''t gone that fast. This meant that the 5 year old boy had been holding back. Caught off guard and exhausted from using an extreme amount of faith energy to sustain the golden disk as it stopped the projectiles from impaling him, Alexis couldn''t react in time. The result was Alexis ending up being grasped by Vincent¡¯s metallic arm. Jack: Alright, that''s enough. Vincent is clearly the winner of this match. Alexis, nice fight but it seems that Vincent''s control over his innocence is years ahead of you. He''s quite the powerhouse for a little boy... After setting down Alex (A: Easier to type than Alexis), the two young boys deactivated their anti-akuma weapons. Vincent seemed especially worn out as it was the first time he had his anti-akuma weapon change forms. He also hadn''t had that much combat experience with his current body, so he had to work extra hard to control it during the fight so he wouldn''t accidentally kill Alex. High stats in an unfamiliar body made for a high chance of accidents occurring. Sophie: Good job Vince, I knew you had it in you! Jack: Lies, you were totally going on and on about what you would do to Alexis if he got too badly injured. Sophie: (Blush) I knew he''d be okay, but I just couldn''t help worrying. Russell: Don''t worry so much when you literally brought him here to learn how to fight. He has to get used to it as soon as possible. It''s the fate of all who are fated to resonate with innocence... Sophie: ...Alright. After the conversation between the 3 ended, Vincent came down from the arena to join them. After they each gave Vincent praise and teased him for not telling them about just how strong his control over his innocence really was, Jack and his brother (?) walked over. Alex: ...Nice fight, I was just looking for a rival with whom I could use as my goal. Jack: Alex, I thought I raised you better. Making a 5 year old your rival, honestly. Alex: Shut up! Strength has nothing to do with age, otherwise I wouldn''t be able to kick your ass, now would I? Anyways, see you around, Vincent. You''ve got to get examined, right? Vincent: ...Yeah, see you. (Please let my rival be a girl, please CE! I don''t know if I can deal with traps, just now, I felt my heart skip a beat! Wait, that''s not the problem here...) Jack: Anyways, let''s get you fixed up. The fact that your innocence is a parasitic type makes it all the more important to get you properly treated. Afterwards, I''ll take you to where the generals are located at and they''ll decide where to place you. I¡¯m sure considering your abilities one of them will even take you up as an apprentice... But of course, before that, we need to treat you... Chapter 14 RW Chapter 14 If Vincent was to describe who Jack reminded him of, it would be Kamui from the original D.Grayman world. When he fixed up Vincent¡¯s anti-akuma weapon, he used the same type of machines Kamui used to fix/dissect Allen. It was still far from the level of ES¡¯s torture though, so Vincent easily bared through it. Jack: Now then, it''s time for your examination and then your place in the Black Order will be decided afterwards by the generals, who just so happen to be having their annual gathering. Even general Cross decided to come here. Ah, we''re here. After promising to meet up with Sophie and the others later, Vincent rode an elevator down with Jack. He was then greeted by the sight of 5 people sitting on thrones looking down at him as if analyzing him. Well, 4 of them. The last one looked bored out of his mind as he drank alcohol. If it wasn''t already obvious, that person was General Cross, the original mentor of Allen Walker. The other 4 were also generals, but Vincent didn''t really remember their names except for Klaud Nine who he hoped would teach him based on her personality. All he knew was that at all costs he would avoid becoming apprenticed to Cross. He didn''t want to waste time clearing away his debt even if he developed an insane ability to cheat at gambling¡­ On second thought...Nah, he could just buy the cheating skills of characters from ¡°Cheating Craft¡± if need be. Anyways, after weighing the pros and cons in his head, Vincent was eventually shoved forward by Jack to his surprise. Before he could understand what was happening, he was already being lifted up by tentacles connected to a figure made of light that seemed to be in the shape of a woman. ?: Do not be afraid. I won''t harm you. Vincent knew he wouldn''t be harmed, but he didn''t know what would happen after he was examined. He had a strange soul thanks to becoming a shinigami, and he didn''t know how much info about him would be leaked out. After what seemed like a few minutes, the being of light spoke. ?: 90% synchronization. Everyone who heard what the being said gaped in shock. Well, Cross didn''t, but he still lifted an eyebrow when he heard it. Klaus: It is the third highest synchronization in the history of the black order. He doesn''t seem that old to me¡­ ?1: This must be a sign that he will have an important role in the future. ?(mysterious being): He will be the one to end the earl¡¯s plan of humanity''s destruction. He will be the one that will lead humanity to the light in its time of greatest despair¡­ Everyone in the room couldn''t believe what they heard. Even Cross was drinking less alcohol as he tried to process what had just been said. Klaud: I would like to take the boy under my tutelage as my apprentice. He needs a capable mentor if he''s going to unlock his full potential.This story has been unlawfully obtained without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. ?1: Hold on, I''m clearly much better suited for teaching humanity''s savior than you. Cross: I''ll take him. If he''s capable of saving the world than he can handle all my debts. It''ll teach the boy the way the world works. ?2: If it''s showing him the cruel parts of the world than he''s better off with me. ?3: Let''s let the kid decide. Cross: Fine. Boy, get your ass over here. ?1: Like that''s giving him a choice. ?2: Boy, choose me, I''ll teach you how to fight. Cross: I can beat your ass any day of the week and you know it. Klaud: Enough, boy, choose your teacher. Ah, my name''s Klaud Nine by the way. Vincent: ...My name is Vincent... can you be my teacher? Klaud seemed surprised at Vincent''s sudden question. Klaud: I can, but why do you want me? Vincent: You remind me of my mom. (B: Pfft!) At Vincent''s sudden reason, Klaud''s eye twitched. Cross: Ahahaha! Good for you Klaud, looks like you won''t need a man to knock you up anymore. Give me a call if you ever wanna get to work on getting your new son a sib- Klaud had already had the monkey on her shoulder transform into its ape form and it was already jumping at Cross who seemed to have just received the best news of his life. Of course, Cross jumped out of the way before it got him. ?1: Enough you two. This isn''t a time to fool around. Boy, are you sure about your decision? Vincent: (nod) ?1: Alright then. I understand that you''ve never had such a young apprentice before, so I advise you to seek advisement on how to treat him properly. Klaud: I know how to treat children. ?1: Alright, then it''s decided. Vincent...er, what''s your last name? Vincent: I don''t have one. ?1: ...Alright then. Klaud, give him yours. If you''re going to be his guardian then having the same name makes sense. Klaud: ...Fine. Boy, don''t expect me to baby you. I''m gonna mold you into the perfect savior that humanity oh so desperately needs. Vincent: (nod) ?1: Then, Vincent Nine, from now on General Nine will act as both your guardian and mentor. Does anyone object to this? (Cross fighting a giant monkey off in the background while trying to object...) ?1: Then this meeting is over. Vincent, you may now leave. Klaud, you''ll stay here at the European Branch while you oversee the young lad''s training. The saviour of humanity is our top priority. Cross: (grin) Yeah, have fun with your new son. Hahahaha! This is the best day of my life. You know what, I don''t even care that he''s not apprenticed to me anymore! I will never let you live this down! Hahaha! As Vincent left back up the elevator with Jack, the last thing he saw was Klaud staring daggers at Cross who was laughing his ass off. Jack: Great for you, Vincent. It''s not everyday that you''re prophesied to be humanity¡¯s saviour. I can''t way to see the look on Alex¡¯s face... Chapter 15 RW Chapter 15 After riding the elevator up, Jack took Vincent to the cafeteria so that he could grab a bite to eat and meet up with Sophie and the others. Jack: ...You know you shouldn''t tell anyone about the whole ¡°saviour¡± prophecy, right? Vincent: I know. Jack: Good. Don''t worry, I was just kidding about telling Alex. Alex: Kidding about telling me what? Jack: !!! As if on cue, Alex appeared from a side hallway and overheard the last part of the conversation. Alex: Tell me, you know I don''t like secrets¡­ At this point, Alex seemed to be threatening both Jack and Vincent. For some reason, when Vincent looked at Alex at that moment, it awakened the trauma that ES had instilled into him, making him extremely fearful and his mind went blank as he relived the horrifying nightmare she''d put him through. Alone without any allies, Jack came up with the most clever lie he could come up with to get Alex to calm down. It was truly the strategy of a genius older brother. Jack: We were just talking about how Vincent has a crush on you. He didn''t want to tell you because he was too embarrassed so he decided to confide his secret in me, and now you demand that i just betray his trust. Have you no shame dear sister? (B:Told you.) Once those words were spoken, Alex took a moment to process what had just been said. Her face changed from one of deep pondering to realization and then finally to complete embarrassment. Alex: M-m-m-my b-bad. I d-didn''t know that it was s-something so p-personal. I-I''ll see-talk to you later Vincent. After stuttering through her words, Alex ran away at a speed that seemed way above what she showed during her match against Vincent. Vincent: (CE¡­ You are my best friend! Sucks I have to wait until she''s older...) Somewhere in the endless void¡­ CE: ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­..Baka. Back to the main story¡­ Jack: Sorry about the lie, Vincent. Vincent: It''s fine, I wouldn''t mind having such a cute girl as my wife. (Crap, did I say that aloud!?) Jack:... So, looks like I''m the one who''s gonna screw over humanity. However, before Jack could lay a hand on Vincent he was interrupted by Sophie, John, and Russell who were waving at them from one of the tables near the exit to the cafeteria. Sophie: Oy, Vince! We''re over here! Jack: ...Watch yourself brat. Vincent: I''m so lucky to have such a caring big brother. Don''t worry, I''ll be sure to show Alex the same care¡­(Srew it, you triggered the flag, let''s see how this ends in a couple of years from now...) Sophie, completely missing the aura between the 2, continued to wave and yell towards them without any clue about what was going on whatsoever. She stopped once she saw the 2 of them walk towards her and her companions. Sophie: Geez, are you guys deaf? What took you so long? Jack: Sorry, we were just talking about the abilities of Vincent¡¯s innocence. It''s always good to know as much about one''s innocence as possible. We wouldn''t want him to bite off more than he can chew¡­ Vincent: I''m so lucky to have Jack looking out for me. As thanks, I''ll make sure to play with Alex for the rest of my life. If Sophie wasn''t there, Jack and Vincent would have long since started a fight. Everyone in the cafeteria except for Sophie saw the tension in the air and remained silent for the sake of not ending up in between the 2 of them. Sophie: That''s so nice. See, I told you you''d find people here that would care about you. Isn''t that great Vincent? Now, let''s eat. Jack: Please have what I''ve ordered. It''s extremely healthy for you, Vincent. After saying so, Jack gave a look at one of the chefs. The chef seemed unwilling to do something for a moment, but then went into the kitchen once he saw the look in Jack¡¯s eyes that seemed to say that not doing what he asked was asking for a fate worse than death. A few minutes later, multiple servants came out holding plate after of plate of strange dishes that seemed extremely unappetizing. Jack: What''s the matter, Vincent. If you can''t do this much, then how are you going to protect Alex for me?Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel. Sophie: Jack, what are you doing!? He''s just a kid that''s not even 4 ye- Vincent: It''s fine Sophie. I was just thinking about how thoughtful Jack is. You must really want me to take good care of Alex if you''re willing to go this far. Don''t worry, I won''t let you down. After saying so, Vincent immediately started digging in, finishing each plate that was put in front of him. To onlookers, it may seem that he was forcing himself to eat, but in reality, it''s just that none of these dishes could come even close to what ES had made him eat that day when they had a misunderstanding¡­ it''s likely that no dish ever would. Throughout the whole time, Jack continued smiling as each dish was placed in front of Vincent. Each one seemed even worse than the last. The last thing to be placed in front of him was a metal bowl with a strange dark liquid in it. The wooden spoon that was placed inside the liquid seemed to be melting in it. Sophie: That doesn''t look edible! Jack: Come on, is this as far as your resolve goes? Vincent: (Judging from the fact that it doesn''t seem to melt metal, I might not need to spend points to survive this...) What are you talking about, for my friends I''d go to hell! As he said those words that he most likely chose to say since his enhanced senses told him that Alex was hidden amongst the crowd of onlookers, Vincent quickly placed the bowl to his lips and chugged the liquid down his throat. It wouldn''t be a lie to say that as it passed through his mouth into his stomach it melted parts of him, but he just worked his faith energy combined with the small amount of soul energy that he could control when out of shinigami mode to speed up his healing abilities. Everyone except Alex and Jack: (I have so much respect for this kid...) Sophie: V-Vince, are you alright? Vincent: It''s fine, my innocence can speed up my healing ability. Jack: Seems like I''ll have to accept what you said¡­ Alright, I don''t like it but I approve of you. Just don''t ruin my sweet little Alex, she''s too innocent and naive. Remember, hurt her feelings and you''re dead. Alex: Who''s innocent and naive!? And stop threatening Vincent! Jack: Ah, Alex. Alright, you have my blessing. Remember though, tell your big brother if he does anything to hurt you. Alex: Whatever¡­ Hey, Vincent. Do you want me to show you around? It''s pretty easy to get lost around here. Vincent: Sure, thanks for caring about me With the way Vincent phrased it, Alex¡¯s face became bright red but she didn''t say anything and motioned for Vincent to follow her. After that, 2 children could be seen walking out of the cafeteria in silence. All the single people had mixed feelings since they found the sight both sweet and envious. Jack also left through a different exit since he needed time to calm his thoughts about what was happening with Vincent and his sister. Jack: They''re just friends, they''re just friends, they''re just friends... After walking for a while in silence, Vincent decided to break the silence. Vincent: So, you gonna tell me where we''re going? Alex: ¡­ *exhales* Yeah, I was planning to show you where the rooms are as well as the general facilities. With that small conversation between the two to break the ice, Alex began to visibly relax. Now that Vincent got a better look at her, he truly felt that she''d be quite the temptress when she grew up. She had short silver hair along with blue eyes that seemed to suckling your soul in. Though she had no bust, that didn''t mean that she had no future potential. (B: He wants to wait cause he''s no pedo.) As Vincent was lost in her adorable figure that made you want to protect and treasure her, their tour came to an end. Alex: So, where are you gonna be assigned to Vincent? Vincent: That''s something that I don''t think I should say. Ask your brother. Alex: ...Alright. Well, see you later. If it was before, Alex would have immediately pursued the subject, but now that she had opened her heart a little to Vincent, she respected his answer. It might also just be the fact that Vincent said the intense statement of "going to hell for his friends" sake not long ago, so that was still fresh in her mind. After arriving in front of Jack¡¯s office, Alex had decided to leave for her room since she was still tired and a little bit injured from her fight against Vincent. After she left, Vincent decided to go inside Jack¡¯s office. What awaited him in there was Jack himself and someone he hadn''t expected to see so soon. Jack: Oh, hey there Vincent. Seems like your tour with Alex is done. We were just finishing up paperwork involving General Nine¡¯s guardianship of you. Klaud: Hey there boy, miss me? Vincent: *nod* (Though I did just say she resembled my mom just to mess with her, she does have quite the mesmerizing mature aura to her...) Klaud: Well, we''ll see after I get through training you. And sign here¡­ done. You''re officially my responsibility now, get ready boy, I won''t go easy on you just because you''re a kid. Vincent: (Lies. She''s extremely kind to children...) Jack: Well then Vincent, I hope you get strong soon. The fate of humanity is in your hands.
Currently, Vincent was walking with Klaud to a remote part of the European Branch Headquarters. There was nothing sexual about this, they were only going to an area reserved for General Nine. Since she had become Vincent''s legal guardian, she would have to spend a while with him and stop her work of searching for potential exorcists until it was decided that Vincent could fend for himself. The other generals wanted her to "adopt" Vincent since it might increase her bond with him, but she instantly rejected due to Cross chuckling the whole time in the background... Klaud: Here we are, boy. Home sweet home for the next few months for me and years for you. After arriving in front of what seems to be a small mansion located in a forest away from the main building, General Nine spoke for the first time the entire journey there. Klaud: Come on in boy, don''t stand there all night. Vincent: Coming. After entering the mansion, Vincent took note that there were already people tending to the mansion. It seems like the building had its own separate staff than the staff from the main building. Klaud: Come on, your room¡¯s on the second floor. General Nine was Vincent''s navigator, so he made sure that he was always one step behind her so as to avoid getting lost. Klaud: Here we are. Finally, after another minute, they stopped in front of a door. General Nine opened the door and the inside of the room seemed very well taken care of. Klaud: This is your room from now on. Mine is the one next to yours, so if you need anything, just come and ask me or one of the servants here. Vincent: Thank you... er... Klaud: Just call me Klaud. Vincent: Thank you Klaud. Klaud: ...No problem kid. Make sure that you wake up by 6 tomorrow. We''ll start your training then. Good night. Vincent: (nod) Good night Klaud. (A: They''re intimate enough. From now on General Nine will be changed to Klaud.) Klaud smiled warmly when Vincent called her name for the first time and went in her room to sleep. Vincent also went to his room, though he had to apologise to ES first before he went to sleep. Because of the fact he''d train tomorrow, he needed all the rest he could get. He popped into the other dimension and gave ES a quick kiss good night. She said it was alright that he couldn''t spend the night with her and that she knew he could make it up to her whenever he had the chance. After staying for a little while longer hugging ES, Mike went back to being Vincent and slept the rest of the night. In all honesty though, Vincent was starting to feel that ES''s sex drive was becoming a little to strong for a person with a body supposedly within the confines of a normal human being... Chapter 16 RW Chapter 16 The following morning, Vincent made sure to wake up on time before his alarm rang. He had 10 minutes and he was fully rested and ready for training. He decided to quickly pop into the other dimension and when he saw his wife in the middle of getting dressed, she stopped to give him an intoxicating look, he immediately jumped on her and used the 10 minutes he had to get rid of all his and his lover¡¯s sexual frustration. (B: Again with the sex ¡è_¡è...) Anyways, once that was out of the way, Mike kissed his wife goodbye and left her completely covered on the bed half-conscious. By the time he came back to being Vincent, his alarm had been ringing for a minute and Klaud was knocking at his door. He then shut off his alarm and called out to Klaud to let her know he was awake. Vincent: I''m up. Klaud: Meet me downstairs for breakfast and then we''ll start your training. 5 minutes later¡­ Klaud: Good, you''re here. Next time try not to wake up so late. I''ll let it slide this time around since you just got through a fight yesterday, but you''ll need to get used to less sleep. Anyways, hurry and finish your breakfast. Training starts right after. True to her word, no sooner had Vincent finished breakfast when she immediately had him follow her outside to a small clearing in the forest. Klaud: Now then, first off, I need to see your capabilities first hand so that I know exactly how to train you. I already know about your fight with Alex but I need to see what I''m dealing with with my own eyes. I want to see just how far away you are from a normal 5 year old... After saying so, Klaud had her partner Lau Jimin(the monkey) transform into its 20ft tall battle mode (accurate enough). Then she had Vincent summon his anti-akuma weapon. Klaud: Then, begin! With her permission, Vincent immediately charged at the giant albino monkey and first tested it out. He already knew from researching that its attacks consisted of lightning punches, so when he saw its hands covered in lightning, he wasn''t surprised. Instead, he decided that when the monkey¡¯s fist came towards him that he''d try and see whether or not his metal arm would conduct it or if it''d just pass right through it harming his hody. As if to answer him, his anti-akuma weapon glowed a faint shade of green before coming into contact with the Lau¡¯s fist. Klaud: Ho¡­ Interesting that you aren''t harmed by the lightning, but more so that you''re strong enough to take a punch from Lau. This means that you can handle tougher training than I originally planned on. Vincent was currently facing a dilemma. He''d found that he used up more faith energy if he had his anti-akuma weapon become lightning resistant than if he left it as is. The only possible conclusions he could come up with was that it was either because it just cost that much to change the property of his weapon, or maybe because it was the first time Vincent attempted it, which didn''t make sense considering that it didn''t cost this much faith energy when he changed the form of his weapon. Klaud: However, you''re still far too inexperienced, boy. As Vincent was distracted with Lau¡¯s fist, he didn''t notice that his tail was swiping towards him until it had hit. Vincent was then blasted back and ended up crashing into a tree. Klaud panicked when she saw this, but calmed down when she noticed that Vincent was unharmed for the most part. Klaud: Oh, you''re still able to get back up after that. Really, just how tough is your body? After the smoke from the collision had cleared, it was revealed that Vincent was still able to get back up even after the rough blow. Vincent¡¯s stats weren''t just for show, the only reason he was able to stand up despite having an anti-akuma weapon was because his body wasn''t at the level of a normal 5 year old. After all, his stats from his Mike body had transferred over his Vincent one. Klaud: Alright, can you still keep going? Vincent: (nod) Klaud: Good, then get ready, I won''t let you rest the entire day. From then on, the daily training between the 2 (B: 3, #don¡¯tforgetLau) continued for the the next few days. Klaud concluded that Vincent¡¯s physical abilities were already good enough, so she decided to focus on letting him gain battle experience. The training mostly consisted of Vincent fighting Lau, Klaud, or both at the same time. Klaud also didn''t forget to instill some battle tactics and strategies for Vincent to learn since the saviour of humanity needed to know how to lead. A typical day of training would start with Vincent waking up, eating breakfast, and then being made to spar. He almost always lost, and only managed to win once due to Lau and Klaud being surprised at how strong Vincent had become after some proper training. After about a week of training, a special occasion was occurring at the Black Order¡¯s European Branch. The reason for the strange atmosphere was simple. It was Vincent¡¯s birthday. Whenever someone joined the the Black Order, especially if they were young, all the other members would give it their best to surprise them with a welcome party. And it just so happened that Vincent¡¯s birthday was around the corner, so everyone tried extra hard to make the party a surprise. Nevertheless, Vincent could still guess why everyone was acting different with him than on the first day he arrived. He was not an ignorant little boy, he had the mentality of a man in his early 20s. All he had to do was put 2 and 2 together and he had figured it out. Even though he knew, he feigned ignorance. He didn''t want to disappoint everyone, especially when they were going through so much trouble for his sake. Vincent had already started to see everyone at the European Branch as family. It was impossible not to when they treated him with open arms. Now Vincent could understand how the original Allen Walker could so openly see everyone here as friends. He had previously lived as a monster that almost everybody hated, but now, he had been accepted by so many people. It almost drove poor Vincent to tears... Klaud: Alright, today you''re- Hey, are you okay!? Vincent: Y-yeah, I''m fine. (Wow, that was really embarassing. I haven''t cried like that since mom got hurt by the villagers because she refused to give me up... I wonder how she''s doing...) Klaud: ...Anyways, today there is no training. Instead, everyone at headquarters has been preparing for a special surprise for you. But I don''t have to tell you this, do I? The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. Over the time Vincent spent with Klaud, she had long since grown to understand that he was very different from an ordinary 5 year old. However, that didn''t stop her from treating him like a brat. Well, aside from when they trained that is... Klaud: I already know you figured out what everyone was planning. Just make sure you don''t ruin your own surprise. Everyone worked hard on it despite it being last minute. Vincent: *nod* Klaud: Good, let''s go then. They should be just about done getting ready. 15 minutes later¡­ Klaud and Vincent had just walked into the cafeteria that for some reason had its lights off. They had just managed to walk through the door when the lights suddenly came back on. Everyone: Surprise! HAPPY BIRTHDAY VINCENT! Vincent pretended to look surprised, and it seemed everyone else bought it. After that, Vincent was pulled by Sophie and made to take a seat. As he was forcefully sat down, he noticed that the decorations used were quite well done despite being last minute. As he was admiring the decorations and feeling warm-hearted thanks to everyone trying so hard for him, the food was brought out. Mexican, american, japanese, italian, all kinds of cuisine was brought out and everyone cried out in joy. They all began to dig in and fill the cafeteria with a calm and joyful atmosphere.Vincent felt that he should thank Jerry personally after the party was over since it was thanks to him that there was so much food available... Vincent ate with Sophie, John, and Russell while Klaud sat right next to him. Alex was also next to him as she ate and talked with Vincent about how much he had improved. Though most might mistake her as a lovestruck maiden, Alex only acted this way because Vincent was the first friend she had ever made. She had no idea how to express her affection toward him. Still, even if she liked Vincent, that didn''t mean she didn''t want to fight him. She was what most people would call a ¡°battle junkie¡±. She lived everyday wanting to fight a worthy opponent, and it just so happened that Vincent managed to pop into her life. She was extremely happy that she got the chance to meet Vincent. After the party went on for a while, everyone brought out their gifts. They were mostly things that would enable a person to survive in the wild or in a fight, but Vincent was planning to become an exorcist and that wasn''t an occupation a child should have. It was obvious that people would try to gift him things meant to help him in a pinch. Vincent then thanked everyone and went back to eating. Eventually, he noticed that Alex seemed tobe fidgeting in her seat, as if she was nervous about something. He was about to say something when Klaud suddenly left for the bathroom. Once she left the cafeteria, Alex asked Vincent if he could go on a walk with her. Vincent didn''t think much about it since Alex was just a little girl, so he agreed and they walked to somewhere more private. After they walked and chatted for a while, Vincent finally felt that something was off about the atmosphere... As they approached a window that provided a wonderful view of the moonlight Alex asked Vincent to close his eyes. Vincent was surprised at this, but nevertheless obeyed. After he closed his eyes, he made sure to increase his other senses so that he could tell what was going on. He didn''t know if Alex was being controlled or something, but she had been acting strange for a while. He noticed that Alex was moving closer to him, and as he was wondering what she was going to do, he also noticed that her lips were currently moving towards his cheek. Even if Vincent was dense, there was no way he wouldn''t realize what she was trying to do. Since it was just a kiss, he let it land without any problems. He then pretended to be slightly surprised and Alex became slightly flustered. Alex: I-I heard it''s somethings friends do. Vincent: Well, only certain kinds. Alex: S-shut up! Alex then tried walking away so as to hide her embarassment, but when she did, she slipped on the curtains for the window. She had been wearing high heels, and she was not at all used to them. Vincent tried to catch her, but as he was doing so, he noticed that he had aligned himself directly in front of Alex''s face as she was coming down on him. At that point, Vincent pushed his processing ability to its maximum so as to think about what to do. Vincent: (Crap, what do I do!? I can tell she knows what''s about to happen, so I might hurt her feelings if I do any sudden movement. Ugh! Why couldn''t this have happened when she was older!? Do I move or not!?)
CE: Just do it!
The random pop up temporarily paused Vincent''s thinking for a split second; however, a split second was all that was needed for Alex to fall on Vincent. They stayed in that position for who knows how long, with Vincent underneath Alex connected by their lips. Once Alex realized what had happened, her face became noticeably redder even in the dim lighting. After a little while, she tried to pry herself away from Vincent. This slight movement accidentally triggered Vincent¡¯s random tongue movement that had been trained personally by ES. Alex felt something happen inside her mouth and temporarily blanked out due to the sweet pleasure that she was feeling for the first time in her life. As she was slowly becoming intoxicated, a voice called out to her. Jack: Alex, are you there!? With those 4 words, Alex managed to snap out of her trance and pushed Vincent away. Alex: S-sorry, I didn''t mean it to go that far. Anyways, umm, j-just forget about what happened! With that, she ran away as fast as she could towards the direction her brother''s voice came from. Vincent: ...Well, I''m going to hell after I die. Wait, but I already died... Vincent hadn''t expected things to escalate that quickly, but he just shrugged off the matter. If anything, all it did was make him find Alex much more charming. Though he would not act rashly until she was old enough, he did plan on seeing how things would turn out, maybe even setting some future flags... After coming back from his thoughts Vincent decided to go back to the party. Once back, he just spent the rest of the day eating and chatting with people. He didn''t see Alex or Jack after the incident. But he wasn''t worried. Though there was one thing that bothered him. For some reason, being with everyone else was more tiring than a day of training for him. Klaud: Ha, so you can take my training but you can''t take parties? You''re the exact opposite of Cross. If you were my age, you may have been my type. Too bad I''m not into brats. Vincent felt offended at that statement, but then he came up with a clever idea. A very lewd, clever idea. As he was walking home with Klaud, he made himself seem very tired. Once they had arrived at the top floor, Klaud turned back and saw that Vincent was already sleeping on the floor. Klaud: ...I guess he still is a child. Despite the way Klaud acts most of the time, she is actually a very caring individual, especially towards children. Once she confirmed that Vincent was indeed sleeping, she decided to pick him up and leave him on his bed since the floor wasn''t a good place to sleep. As she was just about to place Vincent down on the bed, she felt resistance. Vincent: Mom. With that one statement, Klaud¡¯s face started to show traces of red. Even though she was Vincent¡¯s guardian on paper, she never thought of herself as his family much less his mother. When she tried again and saw that his face started to tear up if she tried to rip him away, she thought about what to do. Klaud: Well, it is his birthday¡­ With an extremely red face, Klaud decided to lie down next to Vincent and sleep the night with him. (B: Here''s where things go 18+WARNING EXPLICIT CONTENT: REMEBER, THIS IS ACTUALLY A 20 YEAR OLD MAN AND WOMEN, OK. I put like so many warning signs in previous author notes, so you better either skip it or deal with it if you don''t like milf or shota stuff!!!) Spoiler: Spoiler As Klaud stared at Vincent¡¯s innocent face, she thought that he seemed to look more like his age when he was asleep. She felt that it was better for him to act more like like a little kid. In fact, even though she respected that he managed to act the way he did despite being so young, she truly wished he would act more spoiled around her... Of course, Vincent interrupted those thoughts. Klaud: Wha- As Klaud was pulled out of her thoughts, she realized that Vincent had unbuttoned her shirt, and only her bra was hiding her cleavage from being exposed. She tried to get away but only managed to let a moan escape when Vincent used his expert hands to explore the young woman''s top. Vincent had only intended to go this far to mess with Klaud, but when he heard her moan, something inside him clicked. After some careful consideration, he felt that it wouldn''t be that bad to continue on for a little while longer. Besides, Klaud showed no desire to stop him and his current body wouldn''t let him go all the way. VINCENT: (...) Mom, milk. At this point, Klaud was already starting to realise that Vincent might actually be awake, but her thoughts were constantly interrupted by the pleasure Vincent inflicted on her. Klaud: (This is too much. I''ve never been touched like this. Ever since I''ve gotten the burn marks on my face as a child, no boy that wasn''t as useless as Cross ever approached me with these kinds of intentions.)*pant* By this point, Vincent had already lowered her bra and was already sucking her breasts. While not as huge as ES¡¯s they were still pretty big. As he continued to use his expert tongue, he began to slip his toe down there where Klaud¡¯s lower lips were. Luckily his height was just enough to get the job done. Though he only managed to slip his foot under her skirt and not her underwear, at this point, a virgin like Klaud couldn''t handle the treatment and orgasmed. With that, her head cleared a little, but she was still powerless to stop Vincent¡¯s assault. As she looked towards the doorway, she saw that her partner Lau was opening the door. He turned back when he noticed his gaze, and his eyes seemed to say ¡±Have a nice night.¡± With her last hope gone, Klaud began to make up excuses so as to try and come to terms with what was happening. Klaud: (But, he''s basically my¡­ wait this is training! That¡¯s right, training! I''m increasing the bond between us, so it''s alright to feel this way. No one is perfect at the start...) With that, Klaud let herself enjoy the pleasure as she convinced herself with warped logic that all she was doing was increasing her bond with Vincent, something that was necessary for his growth. As his guardian, she had to see that the saviour of humanity grew in the right direction, right? Chapter 17 RW Chapter 17 The next morning, Klaud woke up and saw Vincent sleeping peacefully next to her. As she recalled the night before, she immediately became embarrassed and realized that she had just had her first sexual experience. After calming herself down, she looked back at Vincent and she realized that because of him something inside of her broke a little. (B: Not messed up my ass.) Even though she knew she shouldn''t let what happened last night happened again, a part of her wanted to experience it again. She had gone too long without being in a relationship, and now that she had gone all the way with someone it was hard to stop. Just as she was trying to come to a conclusion, Vincent grabbed her hand. Vincent: ...Mom. Flashback Of course, Vincent woke up the second Klaud pulled away. After he''d shown her what it means to be an adult, he''d gone back into the other dimension to finish up with ES. It just wasn''t possible to hold up all his lust in a child''s body, and he also hadn''t had the chance to meet up with ES for a long period of time. So after that, he''d gone back to being Vincent and slept next to an unconscious Klaud for the rest of the night. Though he felt a bit bad for taking things a little bit too far, he had at least confirmed that he felt something towards Klaud. And since he was willing to go that far with her, that meant it was the kind of feelings between a man and a woman... (or mxm/wxw, your life). Flashback end Klaud¡¯s face became red once Vincent called her that, but with the way Vincent seemed attach to her, she was hesitant to move away. Klaud: (...He''s just a kid, even if he is a little bad. It''s fine if this happens once in awhile. I-I''m sure he was just subconsciously trying to bond with me. We''re just developing our bond, that''s right! It''s perfectly normal for me to be as close as possible to him. It''s my duty, so it''s okay if I enjoy it since he''s just a kid. There''s no way he has any ulterior motives...) Now that the dutiful (broken?) Klaud had decided, she would spend more time with Vincent so that she could increase their bond. Anything that happened while she was doing her duty was perfectly alright. Klaud: (hug) From now on Vincent, we''ll always be together.
For the next year, Vincent was trained by Klaud each day and was visited several times by friends. Sophie and the others would check in on him every few months, and were surprised by his growth in strength. Alex also came to visit him, but she would always come 2 times a week. After the incident on Vincent¡¯s birthday, she became slightly more hesitant to be around Vincent. Of course, Vincent wouldn''t have this, so he put an end to this by cornering her and giving her a sincere but standard protagonist speech about how friendship was important. It seemed to do the trick, perhaps a little too well, since before she would just hold his hand, but now, when no one was watching, she''d sneak a quick kiss which Vincent would always act surprised by. It was always pure torture to not act on his instincts when something like that kept happening to him... They never went farther than that since Vincent wasn''t into little kids (unless they were legal...) and they also wouldn''t be given enough time. It seems that Klaud had become extremely attached to Vincent after their first night together, and she was now overprotective of him when it came to Alex. It seems that since Alex was closer to Vincent¡¯s age then Vincent would find it easier to become more attached to her. Apparently her thought process forgot to add in the fact that since she was an adult while Vincent was still a child, she had no right to feel jealous... Anyways, so Vincent¡¯s daily life during that 1 year was basically this. Wake up next to a refreshed Klaud Eat breakfast Fight Lau and Klaud (occasionally Alex who came to spar with her rival/friend/lover?) Eat lunch Learn tactics and knowledge about the world. Also study a foreign language. Eat dinner Go back to room where Klaud is waiting Give Klaud what she asks for and release ¡°frustration¡± on ES.(Mike made sure to only think about ES during that time since it would be rude to think of someone else while engaging in the act...) Lau leaves to make sure no one interrupts them. Sleep next to unconscious Klaud. This cycle most likely would have continued fot a while if not for the news that Sophie and her team had gone out to deal with an akuma problem and had yet to report back. There was no news about them since they left a week ago, and they should have finished their job already if they didn''t encounter anything surprising. It was just supposed to be a standard exorcism, consisting of killing lvl 1 and lvl2 akumas. Vincent was worried about them after he realized they should have been back, and the second word spread about a finder, a volunteer that helps exorcists, arriving and having info about the situation of Sophie, Russell and John, Vincent made a run for the main building. Klaud didn''t try to stop him and just chased after him with Lau on her shoulder since she knew that he was attached to the 3 that had brought him to his new home a year ago. After 5 minutes, they arrived at Jack¡¯s office where people who saw them running had told them the finder was currently at. Vincent knocked at the door before Jack¡¯s voice told him to come in.A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. Jack: Ah, Vincent. I was wondering when you''d arrive. Sit down. Lora here was just about to explain the situation. If you would. After taking a seat next to Klaud, Vincent took a look at the blond haired finder. She looked to be the same age as Klaud, but her hair looked far more dirty and her clothes were a mess. He stopped thinking about her appearance once she started talking and focused on her words. Lora: Me and the other 2 finders of my group were supposed to keep an eye on the large force of akuma that had suddenly appeared towards the south. When we saw that they were raiding towns to try and evolve, we immediately sent word here about the situation. We continued to monitor the growing army until we finally managed to meet up with exorcists Sophie, John, and Russell. From there, we informed them of what we knew and they then mounted their assault. John used his anti-akuma weapon that grants him increased senses to monitor the akuma and make sure there were no surprises while Sophie and Russell attacked. All seemed well until John detected anomalies among the akuma. He hadn''t noticed due to their non-movement, but their were 5 lvl 3s hidden among the army. They only attacked once Sophie and Russell were far enough and immediately assaulted Russell who had the most attack power. Seeing that there was no hope for him, he had his 2 teammates abandon him to bring back word to headquarters. Vincent''s brows furrowed at those words and he had an enormous amount of blood lust flowing out of him, but he knew he had to listen to the story all the way. Lora was bothered by how much blood lust the young boy could give off, but she still continued her report. Lora: After retreating, John and Sophie made sure to cover us finders so that we would have a chance at escape. Sophie handled repelling the akuma while John made sure none of them could get the jump on us. Eventually, John and Sophie separated from us to slow down the akuma, but some got past us and while my other 2 teammates distracted them, I managed to escape. This was 2 days ago. Vincent would have already ran for the door if not for Klaud holding him back. Klaud: Easy boy. I''ll go and see what this whole situation is about. It''s too dangerous for you to go. Vincent: I''m strong enough. (I need to go! I''m strong enough to rescue them on my own! I need to hurry before it''s too late!) Klaud: Maybe, but something unknown could be happening, and no one wants to risk the saviour of humanity before he''s strong enough to stand on his own 2 feet. Klaud whispered the last part in Vincent''s ear since she didn''t want Lora picking up on it. Vincent stayed silent after that, but his mind was full of worry. It was then decided that Klaud would take 2 more exorcists with her for support. There was currently only 2 other people at the European branch who could wield innocence besides Vincent, Klaud, and Alex, but they weren''t particularly strong. Vincent tried to persuade Jack and Klaud to let him take part in the operation, but his existence was just too valuable to humanity. Vincent: (If only it hadn''t been revealed that my main quest is to defeat the Millennium Earl, then I''d be able to maybe go...) Klaud saw that Vincent was currently beating himself up over the matter, and her heart clenched in pain. Klaud: (He''s too caring for this type of world. If only it wasn''t his fate, then he wouldn''t be in such grief... What can I do for him!?) Klaud had to leave immediately, and she didn''t know what would happen on this mission. She was especially worried this time since she didn''t want to leave Vincent all alone. It was the first time in a long time that she had someone she could call family she could return to. As she was about to leave and meet up with her group, she turned back to Vincent and her emotions took over. Since no one else was around, she quickly pulled Vincent into her embrace and gave him a kiss on the forehead. This was all she could think of in such short notice. Klaud: I don''t know why you''re so attached to me, but if you still like me the same way you do now when you''re older, I-I''ll give you a proper one. After mustering up her courage and saying what was on her mind, Klaud ran towards the cafeteria to see if the 2 other exorcists were ready. She had at one point realized that Vincent was awake every night, but for some strange reason(plot), she didn''t seem to care anymore. She hadn''t yet noticed, but it actually made her slightly happy... Vincent stared at the running figure of Klaud as she ran away, and only after a few minutes did he realize what had just happened. Vincent: I wonder what would happen when she finds out my real age is about the same as hers¡­ I''m still worried. I''m going as well. Vincent ran towards the mountain path so as to try and follow Klaud and her group in secret. On the way though, he came across a familiar face who seemed to have been waiting for him. Alex: Going somewhere? Vincent: Yeah. Alex: I heard from my brother. Turns out my rival is the saviour of humanity, huh? I couldn''t have asked for a better challenge. From now on, I should go with you. I have to make sure you don''t get done in before I defeat you. Vincent: *grin* Thanks Alex. Let''s get going then.(Let''s not take it any farther than this for now...) After saying his thanks, Vincent kissed the girl to show his appreciation, temporarily shocking her. After she recovered a bit, they ran for the mountain path. They then followed Klaud¡¯ group on their journey down and went on the same train as them. They made sure to purchase cloaks so that no one would recognize them. After a day of riding, they eventually arrived at a small town where they saw Klaud and her group get off. The 2 then followed them and luckily they were going through a forest making it easier to hide. After resting for a little bit, they continued their journey and walked for another 4 hours. Eventually, they arrived at a clearing containing the smouldering remains of a town. Klaud: Damn akuma. They really left no one alive. I doubt Sophie¡¯s team is still alive. Vincent''s gonna be heartbroken. Klaud was right. Vincent was currently feeling grief, but that wasn''t all. He was angry, so much so that it took all his willpower not to let out any blood lust. He wanted to look around and find the army to have revenge, but Alex sensed this and hugged him. Vincent: ...Thanks Alex. Alex: No problem. After staying in that position for a few minutes, they let go and went back to observing the scene. Klaud and her group were currently searching through the ruins of the town to see if there were any survivors. There weren''t any. Dejected, the team went in the direction where a path of destruction seemed to have been created recently. After walking for another hour, they heard the sounds of screams and ran even faster. By the time they got there, the scene before them was already enough to make them wonder if they bit off more than they could chew. ?: Ho~, so someone finally arrived. About time, I was beginning to get bored. What awaited them was 10s of lvl 3 and lvl 2 akumas. That wasn''t the worst of it. There was also a man and a girl with dark skin and crosses on their foreheads staring down at them from up above a building. The man simply stood nonchalantly on the roof while the girl was sitting on an umbrella with a pumpkin on it. The group of exorcists knew that they were in the worst possible situation due to the emergence of these two people. Klaud: ...Noah. Chapter 18 RW Chapter 18 Currently, Klaud and her group were in quite the predicament. Not only were there 2 Noah that they had to deal with, they also had to deal with a ton of lvl 2 and lvl 3 akumas. It might have been possible to defeat the current line up in front of them, but the only truly capable exorcist in the group was Klaud. The other 2 were just supposed to fill in the numbers since headquarters didn''t think the situation would be this bad. Not even for a second did they think to doubt one of the 5 general¡¯s strength, and now that carelessness might cost them one of their most powerful exorcists. Klaud: (This is a pretty bad situation. If it was just one Noah or just the 2, then we might stand a chance, but against them and an army of that quality and quantity, I don''t think I''m we''re making it out alive¡­ Forgive me Vincent, I might not be able to keep that promise when you''re older...) After putting her thoughts in order, Klaud ordered the other 2 exorcists to get ready for combat and told them that since they probably weren''t gonna make it out alive, they might as well fight to the death. After doing this, Klaud had Lau transform and steeled herself for the coming battle. POV Shift When Vincent and Alex got to the scene of carnage, they saw Klaud and the 2 exorcists fighting wave after wave of akuma. The fact that there were only lvl 2 and lvl 3 akuma surprised them, but not as much as the danger that the 2 grey skinned people were giving off. Vincent immediately recognized them once he saw them, and knew the situation was bad. Vincent: (Shit, why are Tykki and Road here? Doesn''t matter, Klaud¡¯s in trouble.) He wanted to jump in and save them, but he was held back by Alex who told him to wait for the perfect moment to interfere. She convinced him that coming out at the wrong time would be fatal. They waited for a while and eventually Klaud and the 2 exorcists became overwhelmed. Just as it seemed they were about to lose, Vincent shot some bullets at the akuma. Tykki: Who!? Vincent: Fuck you, that''s who. After replying, Vincent was already slicing through Akuma after Akuma, not caring about their levels. (B: I feel this may be a tad exaggerated, but it''s close enough) All he cared about at that moment was getting Klaud out of harm''s way since he didn''t want to lose anyone else... Tykki and Road were so surprised at the sight that they didn¡¯t even fight back for a while. Tykky: (Who are those kids? Wait a minute, isn¡¯t that the same kid that the Earl told us about, the one with the parasitic-type innocence?) Road, we¡¯ll have to take care of the kid. He¡¯ll be dangerous if he grows up. I remember the Earl talking about the fact that a little kid managed to kill a lvl 3, and a year¡¯s already passed since then. Considering that he¡¯s already strong enough to take down lvl 3s in less than 5 attacks, he¡¯s a threat that we need to get rid of right now. Road: Aw, but he looks so adorable. Hey, do you think we can just take him with us? Tykki: No, too risky. He dies here. Road: Aw, fine. Such a waste¡­ Meanwhile, Vincent and Alex were still cutting down akuma and they had arrived at the spot where Klaud and the others were lying down injured. Lau was the only reason that they hadn''t been overrun yet. Klaud: ...Vincent? Why are you here!? Don¡¯t you know how dangerous the situation is!? Vincent: I do, but I don¡¯t want to lose you. You still have to keep your promise, right? Vincent whispered the last part into her ear, causing her to blush as she recalled the promise. If only she knew that the reason he whispered into her ear was to keep Alex from hearing... Vincent: Well, I¡¯ll explain some things later on, but for now, sit tight and try not to get caught as a hostage. I¡¯ll take care of things from here on. After saying that, Vincent made sure to help Alex out with destroying the remaining akuma. Or, at least they were supposed to. Tykki: You didn''t think we''d just let you get in the way. Those akuma spent a lot of time to evolve, we can''t just let you kill them all willy nilly. After the voice registered in his head, Vincent felt his instincts warn him as he quickly pushed Alex out of the way. Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author. Alex: Wha- Vincent! Alex managed to turn around mid-fall and see Vincent impaled by metal rods. While they didn''t hit his head, they did hit his chest and limbs. The shock of the scene left her unable to move as she didn''t even stand up. Road: Oh, that looks like it hurts. Want me to nurse you back to health? Vincent: ...Sorry, but you''re not my type. Road: Tch! He''s just an ungrateful brat. Hey, Tykki, can I finish him off? Tykki: No, it''d be better if I did. You should just take care of the little girl. Road: Aw, ok, I''ll just have fun with her. Show me a good time~ Alex: How dare you do that to him. Don''t you dare touch him! *Clang* Road: Uh-Uh-uh, not yet. Why not show me a good time? Alex: Tch! Tykki: Now that she''s out of the way, I guess I should be taking care of y- Vincent: Zanpakuto! Tykki: Wha! Since the Noah were taking their sweet time thinking he was crippled, Vincent had used a combination of his soul energy and faith energy to heal his body. Once that was done, he immediately chose to transform into his shinigami form since he knew he was going to have to show all of his cards if he was going to survive this time. He couldn''t afford to hold back since not only was his life in danger, Alex and Klaud were also involved. Vincent: Sorry, but you were just really unfortunate to run into me today. Even though the Earl will know about me if he doesn''t already, I should at least take care of you. I''m sure Sophie and the others wouldn''t be able to rest in peace if I let you guys continue to roam. Tykki: (What is that sword? For some reason, it gives off a similar feeling like that of innocence, and yet it feels different...) Really, you''re just full of surprises. Vincent: Aren''t I? Well, you''re about to find out just how full of them I am. Once the short conversation ended, Vincent charged at the Noah while easily slicing through akuma with his zanpakuto and anti-akuma weapon. Anyone could clearly see that he was now on a whole different level than before. Not even lvl 3s slowed him down as he simply cut through them with ease; however, only Vincent knew how draining this mode he was currently in was¡­ Vincent: (I can''t be like this for more than 5 minutes. I''ve gotta end this or else I''ll have to switch into my other body, and I don''t want Alex or Klaud to find out yet. I might lose all the progress I''ve made with them if I reveal that I''m actually older than what I appear to be...) Vincent continued slashing through every akuma before him so as to get rid of them in case he used up all his faith and soul energy. He knew that if he just destroyed them, the people''s souls would be gone for good, and so to avoid that, Vincent tried to get rid of them. Of course, Tykki wasn''t staying idle and tried to use black matter to try and stop Vincent. Road was currently engaging Alex who was extremely pissed off for what had happened to Vincent because of her, and she was giving Road hell for it. Tykki: Why isn''t he slowing down at all? What kind of monster is this kid¡­ tch, he''s almost destroyed every akuma here. I''ll have to have the remaining lvl 3s form a giant akuma to stall him. As Vincent was still currently engaging the tsunami of akuma, he noticed that a large amount of lvl 3s were gathering at 1 place. Vincent: (So they''re finally forming that, huh¡­ I better finish up here.) Steel fangs consume all, Fenrir Overgrowth! (B: The 8th grade is strong with this one...) After finishing the incantation and stabbing his blade into the ground, large metal roots started appearing from the ground, skewering the attacking akuma. In only a matter of 10 seconds, the akuma were reduced to only about 10%; however, Vincent shouldn''t have been able to deal with all of them so easily. There was another reason that there so few akuma left¡­ Vincent: That''s gonna be a hassle to take down. Luckily, I have just enough faith and soul energy to take care of them. I''ve only got 10 seconds left, better hurry. In front of Vincent was a gigantic figure, quite similar in appearance to the akuma Vincent had just been fighting. In the face of such a sight, a normal exorcist may have already given up hope. But Vincent didn''t stop. In an instant, he appeared next to the giant figures chest, near where it''s heart would have been. After that, he simply stabbed his blade inside, staying in that position. For 3 seconds, nothing happened. But if one looked closely, they would see Vincent whisper an inaudible chant. Finally, at the end of the 3rd second, something happened. Vincent twisted his blade, and in the blink of an eye, metal blades were protruding out of the giant¡¯s body. Tykki: (...WTF!) Road: ...He''s dangerous. After about 5 seconds, the giant akuma disappeared and left nothing, even the metal blades that seemed to have ended it disappeared. Also, Vincent lost his transformation and went back to his normal human self, without any anti-akuma weapon or Zanpakuto to distinguish him. Only his albino made him noticeable. To the completely spent boy, the Noah spoke to him in a tone that suggested he had won. Tykki: Seems you''re out of steam. Well, you lasted long enough. (Holy crap, what in the world is this kid!? If I didn''t see this happen in real life, I would have thought someone was just playing a joke on me...) Road: Oy~, Tykki I knocked out the girl. Road soon came along, carrying an unconscious and wounded Alex. It seems that she had been unable to find Klaud and the others. Tykki: Good. Now boy, know that if you resist, we''ll kill the girl. Since you''re so spent, we might as well take you to the Earl so that we can find out more about you- Vincent: Thanks. It''d be a hassle if I had to explain why I can switch bodies. Tykki/Road: !!! Standing in place of the white haired boy was now a sturdily built man, with short black hair and a wide grin. The aura he gave off warned the Noah that they should not mess with him¡­ Vincent: Now, I think it''s time for a little revenge, right? Chapter 19 RW Chapter 19 Standing in front of the completely shocked Noah, Vincent had switched back to being Mike. He had been prepared to transform even if Alex and Klaud were around, but since the first was unconscious and the second was safe at another location, he no longer had any reserve. Besides, he always liked the feeling of being in his well built adult body. Besides the fact that it could engage in ¡°adult¡± play, it also felt comfortable for his already developed mind. He didn¡¯t like looking at the world from such a small perspective. Tykki: ...Kid, you are just full of surprises, aren¡¯t you? Wait, are you even a kid? Mike: Nope, not that it matter much to you, seeing as you won¡¯t be alive for much longer. Also, just checking before I murder you in the most brutal way imaginable, Sophie, John, and Russell are dead because of you, right? Road: Ah, you mean that group made up of a buff guy, a scrawny man, and a crying girl? The first was eaten alive after he got swarmed and the second died watching the girl get killed in front of him before his head got chomped off. Hahahah- Mike: Good, then die for today. Both of you aren¡¯t leaving here alive. (Sophie, Jack, Russell, sorry I wasn¡¯t there to help. Don¡¯t worry, I promise that I''ll finish your guys''s life mission of ridding the world of akuma and the Earl. Also, Jack, if I get strong enough, I¡¯ll make sure that you and Sophie reincarnate together and that you¡¯ll have a whole lifetime together¡­ You guys at least deserve that.) Flashback Sophie: Hey, Vincent, I see the way that you look at Alex. Hur-hur, you sure you don¡¯t have any special feelings for her? Vincent: Of course I do. I¡¯m not afraid of admitting my feelings unlike yours for Jack. Sophie: W-What are you talking about!? I don¡¯t- Vincent: Just so you know, he feels the same, so you should try being more aggressive. Sophie: ...Really? Vincent: (nod) Sophie: ...Okay, I guess I¡¯ll trust you, You¡¯re like a brother to me, and siblings should trust each other. After that, Sophie and Jack got together. This was barely a month before their final mission. End Mike: (Don¡¯t worry, your ¡°little brother¡± will keep his promise. I mean, look at my situation. Not even death will stop me; however, to accomplish my goals, I can¡¯t let it hinder me. I have to survive until the very end to have the highest possible chance of success.) Ending his inner thoughts, Mike began forming hand signs at a rapid pace. Immediately after, he finished, clouds of smoke appeared next to him. Once the air settled, 6 more identical ¡°Mikes¡± appeared beside him. Each of them looking at the Noah with a gaze that seemed fitting for a grim reaper. Cold. Emotionless. A face that made one think that that wearer was simply going through another day at the office. And that made an emotion appear deep in the Noah¡¯s hearts. An emotion that only rarely showed itself. Fear. Tykki: (This is bad. The situation¡¯s taken a turn for the worse.) Boy, don¡¯t do anything rash. Remember, your friend¡¯s life is at ri- Road, look out! Tykki¡¯s warning didn¡¯t make it in time. Another Mike appeared from beneath the earth and stabbed Road with a kunai.(B: The most useless weapon in one anime becomes completely useful in another.) He then proceeded to grasp Alex in his arms and jump back to where his other copies were. Mike: Really? Is she poisoned or something? She feels pretty warm in my arms though¡­ Mike simply gave the gaping Tykki a mocking smile as he held Alex safely in his arms. This Mike was a shadow clone of the original, so it proceeded to run towards the direction where Klaud and the others were since it could simply dissipate and the real Mike would know that Alex had made it safely. After it had left with Alex, the Noah finally got rid of their shock. Tykki could feel the sweat on his back while Road looked extremely pissed off for being stabbed by Mike. If looks could.. Er.. murder! Ha, there, totally original. If looks could murder, Mike would have been mutilated many time already.(B: *facepalm*) Road: ...Tykki, I want to kill him. Tykki: I know you do, but we should really focus on leaving. If we don¡¯t, we might really die. Road: ...Fine. We still better kill him later on. Mike: Sorry, but do you guys not speak english? I said, I¡¯m not letting you leave here without sending your souls off¡­(Tykki can pretty much control the laws of physics, and he ¡°awakens¡± later on in the show. I need to take care of him quickly before he has his ¡°awakening¡±, otherwise I might have to use points to quickly heal my other body in order to deal with him and Road.

Now I can afford that thing I really wanted to get early on¡­ I wonder, do I get anymore points for killing a Noah?) After finishing the inner monologue, the 7 Mikes charged at the Noah with the intent to kill, some weaving hand signs and some simply charging with kunais or throwing shurikens. While each one only had about ? of the original¡¯s chakra reserve, they still each had strength nearing jounin. While against strong characters from the narutoverse, the strength might seem pretty insignificant, but against non-ninjas, they were more than enough. Well, that would be the case if they weren¡¯t up against something like the Noah. Road used her ability and changed their location to her pocket dimension, keeping them trapped inside. Tykki: Road, I thought we agreed on escaping? Road: We will, but first, I want to play with him. Just. For. A. Little. Bit. Even with the sudden change in location, the Mikes seemed undisturbed, continuing their attacks as if they already expected it. 5 engaged Tykki while the other 2 went for Road. (A: Just so you know, the extent of Tykki¡¯s speed isn¡¯t known, so I¡¯m just gonna have it be as fast as what Mike is capable of.) Tykki first tried swarming them with Teez, flesh eating butterflies, but one of the clones used a type of fire-style jutsu, burning them all away. Once Tykki saw that it was ineffective, he gave up on trying to fight at a distance and attempted to use his ability to create a vacuum to try and kill a chunk of the Mike¡¯s. Once the black sphere appeared, 2 Mikes were caught up in it. It only lasted for one second, but they simply disappeared. Tykki: What?! Ha! They¡¯re illusions. As long as the real one doesn¡¯t hit, then I¡¯m fine. After saying so, Tykki allowed one of the Mikes to hit him. When he felt contact, he knew it was real. Tykki: So, you¡¯re the original. All I have to do is take care of you and- Road: Tykki, they¡¯re all real! Tykki: Wha! Road¡¯s warning came too late. By the time she told Tykki the truth, the other 4 Mikes had already stabbed him. The wounds he received were pretty deep. After gaining some distance from them, Tykki, was standing, bleeding all over the floor. Tykki: (Tch, how could I be so careless. I was sure that they were only illusions¡­ Wait, now that I think about, the other clone seemed to do damage to to Road¡­ did my emotions make it so that I couldn¡¯t think straight.) Road: Tykki, are you- Tykki: Road, run. He isn¡¯t someone we can take care of. Go back and tell the Earl. (Who is this guy? There should be no one else with this level of power that we don''t have Intel on...) Road: But- Tykki: Now! And don¡¯t worry about me, it¡¯s more important to let them know about him! Road: ... Fine. After saying so, the young Noah dissipated the pocket dimension, bringing them back to the forest. After doing so, a portal appeared behind her. The reason she wasn¡¯t interrupted was because the 2 clones that had originally been fighting her disappeared during their fight. They managed to inflict some damage, but her healing ability was just too strong. Besides, all it took was one good hit and they went poof. Mike had already abandoned thoughts on making her stay. He realized halfway through the fight that he wasn¡¯t strong enough to kill both Noah, so he thought that since one was leaving, he should quickly finish the fight with the other and then leave. After all, he wasn¡¯t in a hurry. He had a whole lifetime to eradicate the Earl, Noah, and Akuma. Road: ...Tykki, make sure you make it back. I¡¯ll bring everyone quickly, so try to hold on for a little while. Tykki: Don¡¯t worry, it should only take a few minutes for you to gather everyone. I can hold on for that long. Road: ...Okay. After saying her final line, Road walked through the door and it disappeared. Tykki: So, all I have to do is hold on for a few minutes and I¡¯ll be fine. Mike: Well, you would, but unfortunately, you¡¯re already dead. Tykki: Wha- *cough* Wha-, What are these insects!? They¡¯re inside me!?(A: Quote of the day.) Flashback 6 months ago... ES: Hey, Mike, why are you getting bugs? Why not just a poison enhancement or something? Mike: I would, but these bugs are way cheaper than any of those mutations, and I also want to experiment with akuma blood I¡¯ve saved up. In case I ever have too, even if it means destroying a soul, I can use these bugs to hopefully kill troublesome akuma. Who knows, maybe i can even use them on the Earl or the Noah if the experiment works. Kidaichu Origin: Naruto Description: Bugs that consume flesh and quickly increase in size if fed the wrong amount of chakra. Only a queen is given after purchasing. Will give birth every 2 weeks. Each egg has an incubation period of 4 months. Information on basic use/care will be given upon purchase. Cost: 500 After purchasing, a bug larger than a person¡¯s head appeared. ES was a little disgusted at the sight of it, but Mike held nothing but high expectations. He also felt knowledge on how to take care of and use the Kidaichu appear in his memories. He then made it so that a part of his dimension transformed into a forest like biome(only regular plants/fungi can be made without spending points) and had the Kidaichu Queen live there. A cool feature that ES told him about is that since this is his dimension, he can choose which types of energies are present; however, they are only there is he himself is in possession of them. Luckily enough, the queen immediately gave birth to the first egg the moment it felt comfortable. From then on, the cycle would continue with the Queen giving birth and shadow clones taking care of the newborn insects until they matured enough. ES even began to help out halfway since she felt like she wasn¡¯t doing enough to help Mike, which made Mike extremely grateful. Also, Mike experimented when he had time and found out that as long as he fed the bugs a certain amount of chakra when they came into contact with the akuma blood, they would be able to develop enough resistance to it so that it no longer greatly affected them. He felt that he was making a wise investment with the insects, but he absolutely had no idea that they would be useful this early on... End Mike: I really am glad I got these guys and taught them how to attack when they were inside someone who isn¡¯t using chakra. If I hadn¡¯t, I wouldn¡¯t be able to kill you¡­ Tykki: How aren¡¯t they affected by my body!? Mike: Trade secret. Also, since this is usually the time where the protagonist would give you a second too long to somehow awaken or calm down so that you could just use your ability to kill my insects, I¡¯m taking your life right now. Of course, by the time Mike was halfways through his speech, he had already killed the Noah. He didn¡¯t want to give him any chances, so he played it safe just in case he did manage to reecover. After completely crushing Tykki¡¯s head while simultaneusly stabbing it, he had one of his clones use fire-style jutsu to burn the body. Afterwards, he used what little soul energy he had recovered to make sure there wasn¡¯t a soul or something left. There wasn¡¯t. Mike: I should probably get out of here. I do not want to deal with the entire Noah family and possibly the Earl just yet¡­ Alright, come back you guys. After calling back his insects, he sent them back to his dimension and dissipated his clones. He then proceeded to run in the direction of where Klaud, Alex, and the others were located at. The entire journey, he had a slightly cheerful face on. Mike: I was wondering why the ¡°Stopping the Noah family¡± side quest didn¡¯t mention a specific reward. Killed Noah: Tykki Mikk = 2600 C-points. Total = 12,697 C-points Chapter 20 RW Chapter 20 Even though Mike was ecstatic about the huge amount of points he had, especially since he could buy something he had been looking forward to for a while, he knew he should still get the hell away from the area of the battle between him and the Noah. No matter OP he thought the current him was, he knew better than to engage in a fight with an entire squad of Noah¡¯s. After traveling for around 5 minutes, it took this long since he had to use ninja tricks to try and make his path untraceable, he finally got to the area where Klaud and the 2 other exorcists were carrying an unconscious Alex. Of course, he¡¯d already switched back to being Vincent, otherwise all his effort of being so secretive would have been for naught. When Klaud saw him, she immediately ran towards him despite her injuries and checked him over. Klaud: Vincent! Are you alright!? When Lau led us to Alex and we saw her state, we thought something happened to you! What happened!? Vincent: I¡¯m fine. Are you? Klaud: Yes, I am. But you, you disobeyed me. Didn¡¯t you know how dangerous the situation was!? Vincent: Yeah, but I was worried about you. Klaud: *exhales* Whatever. It is true that we would have probably died if not for you. You truly are an abnormal brat... Thank you, Vincent. By the way, what happened with the Noah? Vincent: They ran away in a hurry halfway through our fight. They looked like they were worried about something. Klaud: Well, as long as you¡¯re safe. C¡¯mon, let¡¯s leave. We don¡¯t know when they¡¯ll be back.
Back at Black Order HQ¡­ Klaud: ...And that¡¯s what happened. Jack: I see. I¡¯ll have to report this to the higher ups. The fact that the Noah family is back and working with the Earl is bad news. Anyways, good job surviving. Also, good job protecting Alex, Vincent. I heard from her, and know that you risked your life for her. Vincent: I thought I already told you just how far I¡¯d go. Jack: You did. It just helps reinforce it if you actually act. Klaud: *cough* Well, now that we¡¯re done here, we might as well go back and rest. Let¡¯s go, Vincent. Vincent: Bye Jack. After being pulled away by a seemingly annoyed Klaud, the pair(along with Lau) made their way back to their mansion. They were very tired after the long journey, so they went straight to bed. Of course, Klaud had other things in mind. Once she was dressed in her negligee, which Vincent had tricked her into wearing a long timeago, she lied down next to Vincent and waited for him to drift off to sleep. She then started to whisper into his ear. Klaud: Are you hungry?(This is just payback for talking about Alex so much...) Vincent: Milk. Klaud: *shudder* (A: Sorry, no sex unless something special. Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯ll happen later on( ?¡ã ?? ?¡ã) ) Once Vincent made Klaud faint with a smile on her face, he then transferred his conscience back to the other dimension where he met up with ES. He¡¯d already explained to her what happened after she had panicked over the fact that his wounded ¡°Vincent¡± body had appeared, so he didn¡¯t have to waste time. Instead, before he spent the night together with ES, he first decided to do something that she had been begging him to do for a long time. ES: *squeal!* Finally, I¡¯ll get a real name! Mike: Yeah, sorry about taking so long. (I got too used just referring her to ED or my wife...) Hope you like it. ES: I will, now tell me! Mike: Okay, the name I decided on is¡­ Ezra! ES: YAY!!!!! Wait, are you naming me after a character from Fairy Tail? Mike: Yeah, but she was also my favorite anime character of all time, so what better name than that¡­ Ezra: You put so much thought into it, thank you!(B: Logic.) Mike: No problem. It didn¡¯t feel right to just keep calling you ES. So, once again, I hope for a happy life time with you, Ezra. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. Ezra: Mm! After that, they had a little ¡°celebration¡± that lasted about an hour since their were more important things to do. Mike promised Ezra that he¡¯d continue tomorrow night. Ezra, still giddy over getting a real name, didn¡¯t mind much and said she would be happy whenever. Mike: Now, let¡¯s buy that upgrade I wanted. I really want it now that I¡¯ve seen the effects of the Kidaichu. Farm System Origin: Bringing the Farm to Live in Another World Description: An update to your dimension that makes it so that a part of it is now changed to that of a spatial farm. This will create a dimension within the dimension where you will also be allowed to let non-contracted beings into. To enter the spatial farm, the owner must open a portal to it. (Allows for crops with special properties to grow in your dimension.) It can speed up the gestation period of crops, improve types of water/soil, house living creatures, store large amounts of objects, and make certain hostile creatures into allies if they enter. For a more deeper understanding of all this enhancement has to offer, refer to its source material. By spending C-points, gathering new samples, or continuously harvesting, it is possible to increase the level of the Farm. (Special areas will spawn when necessary.) Cost: 10,000 Mike: This is a perfect enhancement to buy. While I don¡¯t desperately need a large supply of crops at the moment, that doesn¡¯t mean that there isn¡¯t a lot of potential as a breeding farm. Not to mention the fact that I can just buy special crops that will help me. Also, there¡¯s probably a high chance of me reincarnating into a world full of special plants, so this is a really good investment for the future. While it might suck that I¡¯ll have to wait for it to level up for the ranch, I can just bypass this by getting creatures that don¡¯t require it. However, the best part of the farm is the fact that animals in it don¡¯t go hungry. That means I shouldn¡¯t have to worry about feeding the growing population of kindaichu since they wouldn''t be able to survive on chakra from the environment for long. After making his purchase, the area which was the forest where the kidaichu lived at shined with a bright flash before revealing that the insects were gone. Ezra: Mike, why did a screen appear in front of me saying that I¡¯m your farm helper? Mike: Oh, I assumed that would only work on intelligent plant beings¡­ Anyways, that just means that you¡¯ve gained knowledge on how to work the farm, right? Ezra: Oh, I really do know how it works. It seems that since it was created by the system, as your AI, I gained the knowledge on how it works. I guess that if you ever get another enhancement similar to this one, the same thing would happen. Mike: Oh, well, that probably won''t happen for a few years. I''ve probably pissed off the Noah, but they''ll probably be a lot more inactive in the coming years so as to make sure there aren''t other people like me. Ezra: Mike, the system says that instead of buying the crops or plants directly from the system, it is better to go out and buy them since they''ll give more experience and they''ll make the prices for them in the shop go down. Mike: Okay, I''ll do that since this enhancement gets really strong later on. Let¡¯s check out my new dimension. Mike then opened up a portal that he instinctively knew how to create and then proceeded to walk with Ezra through it. On the other side of the portal, 3 plots of land could be seen that seemed prime for farming. There was also a large spring, a barn, a small forest area where the kidaichu could be seen moving about, and a small, average looking house. They explored a little more and pop ups appeared in front of them, telling them information about specific parts of the dimension. (A: There, tables. I added them in so that you guys have extra incentivereasons to like the farm.)

After finishing the tour, Mike was extremely happy with the results, so much so, that he hugged Ezra which then led to them going into the house when things progressed a little too far. Afterwards, Mike browsed through the list of fictional crops, looking for some helpful ones, when he remembered that there was a really amazing type of crop that would help him out. Mike: Of course! How could I possibly forget the ultimate, most classic healing/revitalizing food!? Senzu Beans Origin: Dragon Ball Description: Special crops that can easily fill the hungriest of eaters and still bring them back to full energy.(Besides stamina, can also recover whatever other energy that the consumer has access to.) One stalk uses all of the nutrients in an entire plot. In the spacial farm, takes about 1 week to produce 3 beans. Stalk will continue to produce Senzu Beans. (A: I have no idea what plants Senzu Beans come from, so just go with it.) Cost: 1000 Mike bought two of them, and a shovel and two seeds appeared immediately afterwards. The shovel quickly dug holes in two of the plots which the seeds would fall into before being buried. Then, a bucket full of water appeared and poured water from the spring on the buried spots. Soon after, small sprouts appeared and it seemed that you could see them grow with the naked eye.
System: Time until Senzu stalk maturation: 2.5 days
Mike: I thought you were gonna tell me? Why did I get a pop up? Ezra: Oh yeah, I kinda forgot. Hold on, I¡¯ll change it¡­ There. I¡¯ll tell you when they¡¯re done from now on. Mike: Okay, nothing really left I guess other than to grow plants and grind EXP to level up the farm. Do you mind doing this with the empty plot while I go back and sleep, or is it too straining? Ezra: Thanks for worrying, but I can manage. Don¡¯t forget that as an AI, I am designed to be available to help you full time. My mind can function full time even if my body can''t move. Mike: Thank you, but make sure you don¡¯t overwork yourself. Ezra: Alright. Good night Mike. I love you. Make sure you rest. I¡¯ll give you an update in about 10 hours. Mike: Love you too, see ya tomorrow morning. *yawn* After their goodbyes, Mike left back to his Vincent body and Ezra went to bed next to Mike¡¯s floating body under the sheets. Chapter 21 RW Chapter 21 After returning back to his child-like body, Vincent spent the rest of the night embracing Klaud while they slept. The next morning, Vincent woke up way later than he had in the past year, and was surprised that Klaud was still sleeping with him. Even if she was tired, she ususally always woke up on time. Vincent: (Guess she¡¯s really relaxed...Oh well, I¡¯ll just keep hugging her for now.) After about another hour of simply enjoying the comfortable feeling of hugging someone as well-endowed as Klaud, shestarted to stir. Klaud: Mm? Oh, Vincent, you''re awake. What time is it? Vincent: I''d say it''s about the usual time we''d usually start training¡­ Hey Klaud, can we just stay in bed today? I don''t really feel like training¡­ Klaud: I do too, but we should really start training so that we can better prepare you for the coming fights against the Noah. Vincent: Please (Vincent used kawaii eyes. Super effective against older women.) Klaud: ...Fine. Vincent: Thanks Klaud. *hug* After that, the two slept in each other¡¯s embrace for the rest of the day. Lau guarded their room the entire time (B: #LAUBESTWINGMANINANIME!)
Time Skip Vincent was now Seven years old. Here¡¯s what happened in the past few months. Flashback After the incident with the Noah was reported to the higher ups, Vincent and Alex were immediately rewarded for their actions in saving General Klaud and her two escorts. Since it was undeniable that despite being so young their strength was at the level of the Order¡¯s best exorcists, the two were promoted to official exorcists, which Vincent was extremely satisfied with due to the fact that he would be rewarded for the title. Become an Official Exorcist = 5000 Total = 5,697 C-points Vincent¡¯s reaction: (Fuck Yeah!!! More insects!!!) *smirk* Alex: ...I didn¡¯t really think you were someone that liked titles so much Vincent. Klaud: Me either, and I spend every day with you. Vincent: Ah, no, I¡¯m not petty like that(depends), I was just really happy about the fact that eventually I¡¯ll be able to go out and search for innocence while hunting for akuma. Now that I¡¯m an official exorcist, all I need to do is wait for our new team member that the higher ups mentioned. Alex: Oh, I guess that makes more sense. Well, as your partner, I¡¯m glad we feel the same. When Alex and Vincent were promoted, it was declared that since they worked so well together during the Noah incident that they would form a group together with the next new recruit that would show up in a few more months. Klaud agreed as well that they would probably work best together, but in her mind she subconsciously felt bitter about the matter. Nonetheless, since it was decided that Vincent would still continue to stay with her, she acted as if she didn¡¯t care. Vincent: Mm, I look forward to working with you, Alex.Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation. Thus began a new chapter to Vincent¡¯s life. A typical day for him from then on was a bit different than what it was before. Since Alex was now assigned to his future team, they would have to spend time together do develop their bond. Klaud was expecially against this, coming up with excuses such as how she didn¡¯t want to take care of another brat, but she was overruled by the majority vote of the generals who had come back after being told about the Noah incident(Cross was not present). So, Vincent¡¯s day began a little bit like this¡­ Wake up next to either Klaud, Alex, or both(Alex became more aggressive after being saved by Vincent. Klaud also didn¡¯t want to give up her nightly activities, so they came up with a compromise to share him. They would each get some nights alone with him, but they sometimes shared to try and see how the other would handle Vincent. Klaud didn¡¯t engage in her ¡°play¡± with Vincent during these nights, but it was free game once it was only her and Vincent on the bed.) Eat breakfast with the two of them(They would both try to spoon feed him.) Train(He now sometimes had to fight against Klaud, Lau and Alex at the same time, which he never won until after his 6th birthday) Eat lunch Study Alex would sometimes try to get Vincent to go on an outing with her. Go to bed with them and sleep(Do ¡°more¡± if it was only Klaud). He would also occasionally go the other dimension to fool around with Ezra so as to not let her be lonely and train a little in his inner world so as to bring his goal of conquering Ana a little step closer. Besides this he had his clones train his other body. Ezra would take care of the farm for him since she wanted to be of more use to him. Vincent noticed that she was always worrying if she was doing good enough, so as to give her peace of mind, he chose to get rid of any thoughts of buying more insects for the time being. He also thought that if the time came where he allowed Ezra to come out of his dimension(he can for a small fee of 1000 C-points), he would want her to be able to defend herself. Even if she wouldn¡¯t really die since that is the effect of the Contracted Being System, he still didn¡¯t want her to experience death. So, since she already had the name, he bought the best matching enhancement for her that he could get for the time being. Requip Magic D-rank Origin: Fairy Tail Description: Magic that the mage Erza Scarlet wields. It allows the user to equip different types of armor and weapons through the use of spatial magic. The number of armor and weapons the user can access is limited to the user¡¯s magical power, and will increase alongside it. This enhancement comes with the default ¡°Heart Kreuz armor¡± along with a basic sword that strengthens with the user''s magical power. More armor can be unlocked by spending C-points or by simply adding armor that belongs to to the user. Cost: 5500 When Vincent told Ezra about what he planned to give her, he was immediately hugged by the crying purple haired beauty who continued bawling her eyes out over how he was stupid to spend something so valuable on her. When she was done, Vincent told her that it wasn¡¯t just for her, it was also for him. With a lecherous smile, he told her that he looked forward to testing out just how fast she could change outfits at night. Of course, that was just a small part of the reason, but with a blushing face, Ezra said that if her bought her the enhancement, then she would be happy to use it for him whenever.(A: This counts as special enough, so look out for a side chapter later on...) Besides this, nothing else really happened. Vincent continued to train both his bodies at once through the use of shadow clones, he increased his chakra amount by a little less than ?, he strengthened his bond with both Ana and his innocence by going into his ¡°special¡± mode which combined them (Alex and Klaud questioned him, but he played it off as something like bringing his innocence to a higher level. He made sure to hold back though, otherwise he could have easily beaten Klaud, Lau and Alex in a fight during the early days.), he successfully grew plenty of senzu beans, and the amount of Kidaichu he had continued to grow at a much higher rate since the system made it so that some animals that were in the space were only female so that they would simply give birth. By present time, he had close to 200 of them, each of them completely understanding his orders. Ezra also continued growing plants in the one plot of free land, making sure to only grow ones from the seeds that Vincent would gather from the D.Grayman world. While there was a chance of their being unique plants in that world, the only ones Vincent knew of were the plants at Krory¡¯s castle. Instead, he chose to give Ezra seeds from the food he ate such as watermelon, green beans, radishes, etc. Although they weren¡¯t enough to instantly level up the farm, they would be enough to level it up within a year, which is what did happen. Nothing much happened other than a reward of 550 C-points, a few more extra plots of land, and the level up of things such as the weed killer and the house, but that made Vincent pretty happy since that meant he could gain points this way. Ezra also continued to train diligently, making sure that she would steadily increase her magical powers and her ability to equip armour and weapons almost instantaneously. It would have taken her a long time to get to her current level, but thanks to the supply of Senzu beans, she was able to further quicken her training speed. Vincent was very ¡°satisfied¡± with the results of her training, especially when she displayed them for him at night.¡± (B: Giggity.) And so, things continued like this. Everyone that was involved with Vincent was steadily increasing in strength, and the Noah had yet to make a ruckus. Even the reported akuma sightings in Europe seemed to be dwindling over the year while the sightings slightly increased overseas. No one else but Vincent could possibly guess what was going on; however, he knew that the Earl and Noah were most likely preparing for the future since they were being so cautious of him. Regardless, Vincent was already training each day to his fullest, so he was already doing the best he could to prepare. This continued until a little bit after Vincent turned 8, when the final member of his, Alex¡¯s, and Klaud¡¯s(she somehow got herself on it under the guise of the adult responsible for their safety) team was said to have been chosen. Lenalee: H-Hello, my name is Lenalee Lee. P-Please take care of me. Jack: From now on, this young lady will be a part of your team. Please treat her well. I''m sure she''ll make a fine exorcist under your care. My superiors told me that she''s been through quite a bit... Alex: Nice to meet you, name''s Alex. Vincent: Hi, name''s Vincent. It''s nice to meet you. Welcome to the team. *smile* Lenalee: ... Vincent: (So, she¡¯s finally here. Poor girl, I wish I could have done something for her before she had to suffer the trauma of being roughly whipped into an exorcist...) Don''t worry, you won''t have to suffer like that anymore. Lenalee: ...*sniffle* W-wah!!!! It was so scary, and everyone was so mean to me, and my big brother wasn''t there to help me, and- wahhh! Vincent just hugged the poor girl as she cried since he knew that she had gone through something very tramatic for a girl her age. No one in the room said anything for a little while as they just watched the scene. It was as if they didn''t want to wreck such a beautiful moment between a little girl and her older sibling... Chapter 22 RW Chapter 22 After the tearful introduction, it was decided that Lenalee would live in the mansion alongside Vincent, Alex, and Klaud so that they could get used to being around one another. Vincent, who knew of the terrible trauma Lenalee had faceed, was giving her special attention. While this made the Alex and Klaud a bit jealous, they still allowed it since they knew that Vincent was just trying to coax the girl in opening up. Oddly enough, it seemed that for some strange reason, the little dark green-haired girl only held actual conversations with Vincent (B: Power of writer¡¯s convenience). With anyone else, they would be lucky enough if they got a few stuttered out replies. Eventually, Lenalee did end up becoming more confident and talkative, but that only happened a few months after she first became a part of the team. She probably would have never completely accepted everyone else if it weren''t for the fact that Vincent spoke so highly about them. Vincent''s new daily life looked a little like this. Wake up next to the 3 females (Lenalee needed the warmth of someone to sleep next so as to not have nightmares.) Eat breakfast (Lenalee liked sitting next to Vincent. She also started to feed Vincent when she saw Alex and Klaud do it on her first day with them. The 3 of them would sometimes fight over who Vincent liked to be fed by.) (B: He probably somehow bought something similar to this without us knowing...) Protagonist¡¯s Charm Origin: N/A Description: Every harem protagonist has an aura that attracts women. The strength of this probability depends on the actions of the ¡°protagonist¡±, but they assure nearly 100% capture if done correctly. Cost: 95,000 and X-certificate (Something that only high level hidden quests can give...) (B: Back to the story) Train: Lenalee was way weaker compared to everyone else, so Vincent would help her out when they sparred. She could never really fight at their level, but Vincent secretly gave her Senzu beans every once in awhile. He made her promise not to tell, and she obediently followed his instructions. The reason why he could affordthis is because he leveled up both the soil and spring water in the spatial farm by infusing chakra into large amounts of normal soil and water. It was just enough to bring them to the next level, further increasing the speed at which the senzu beans grew. Eat lunch: Same as breakfast Study: Vincent managed to completely learn japanese and a little bit of russian. He would always help Lenalee with her studies, and occasionally Alex as well since she would always whine about the way he treated the Lenalee. Eat dinner: same Foursome!... Not, all they did was sleep next to each other. Klaud seemed to be becoming a bit frustrated ever since she no longer got any alone time with Vincent... Vincent once accidentally stumbled upon her in her room one time when she was "enjoying" Vincent''s sweaty shirt. After seeing this, he felt that he should keep it a secret... At night, Vincent would go home and go to bed with Ezra since she would get lonely and unmotivated when she was not neat him. The amount of insects he had was also coming along nicely. He had nearly a ten-thousand of them. It was nice that they also stayed pretty small as long as he didn¡¯t command them to increase in size. This was basically Vincent¡¯s daily life for a while, one that many men would be jealous of. Becoming super strong, building a harem, and getting laid almost every single night. Truly a life to be envied; however, eventually, all training arcs must come to an end. By the time Vincent and Lenalee were 12, it was decided that Lenalee was more than strong enough to contend with at least a group of lvl 2 akumas (only possible due to the senzu beans and the strict training method Vincent gave her). In fact, she had been the reason that they hadn''t yet left to go on assignments. After nearly 4 years since she came, it was now time for their team, Squad Nine, to do their duties as exorcists and search for innocence while taking care of akuma. Over these past few years, everyone except Lenalee made substantial progress in their strength. With the exception of Vincent, who managed to increase things such as his control over his innocence and the total capacityof his different energies, everyone else only managed to increase the amount of faith energy and resonance with their innocence. Of course, that was still more than enough to make them probably one of the top groups in the entire Black Order. Also, there weren''t that many akuma sightings in the country, so it was likely that they wouldn''t be in too much danger for their first few missions. Eventually though, they''d have to go to other countries to help out with the increase of akuma sightings overseas. But that wouldn''t be for at least a year or if the akuma sightings suddenly spiked up.
Today was Squad Nine¡¯s first official mission. They woke up extra early and were already packed up, ready to go. Alex: Vincent, hurry up! Why''s it taking so long for you to change? Vincent: Coming! Unbeknownst to the rest of his team, the reason Vincent was taking so long was because he had to check in on Ezra and the spatial farm before he left. He didn''t know when he¡¯d get the next chance to go back since when he traveled with Alex and the others, he wouldn''t be able to react with his ¡°Vincent¡± body. About a year ago, Ezra told him something that he never knew. Not only that, he remembered something that he had been meaning to ask the spatial farm for quite some time... Flashback Vincent: What do you mean that when I¡¯m here as Mike, I can¡¯t react to what happens to my other body!? Ezra: ...I¡¯m sorry. I really didn¡¯t mean to not tell you. It¡¯s just, I thought that if you knew, you might not want to spend as much time with me since you wouldn¡¯t want to risk your body dying. Vincent: Haah¡­ At least its good that the only times I left my body were when it was night, with Lau guarding the room. Make sure to tell me about these things earlier, okay? Ezra: *sniffle* Okay¡­ Vincent: Alright, come here. *hug* I¡¯m not mad, I just don¡¯t want things to happen when I could have prevented them. Is there any way to make it so that I can know if my Vincent body is in danger, or if I can control both my bodies at once? Ezra: There are. Dual Body Control Origin: N/A(There are plenty of sources with this ability) Description: Allows for the user to control 2 bodies at the same time. Can be further upgraded.Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. Cost: 11,000 Danger Alarm(close enough) Origin: Skill Taker¡¯s World Domination Description: An alarm that rings the more in danger the user is. Cost: 4,000 Vincent: ...Alright, I¡¯ll make the second one my priority for now since it''s cheaper. Since you showed me it, I assume that it will work even if my consciousness is not in the body? Ezra: Yeah, after asking the system, it seems that it will warn you as long as it is considered to be ¡°you¡±, even if you aren¡¯t really inside of it. Vincent: Alright, make sure to tell me about anything else that might seem important. Ezra: Alright, I promise I won¡¯t disappoint you! After that, the two spent quite a while talking over things that Ezra might have forgotten to tell Vincent.
Ezra: Oh rifht, Mike, weren''t you going to have the spatial farm scan you for why your body changed? Mike: Shit, I forgot!!! Mike quickly changed back into his Vincent body and had the farm scan it for any abnormalities.
System: Scaning... 1% 2% 3%... 100%. Scan complete. Besides Faith energy and Soul energy, host seems to have been infected with a type of parasitic entity. It is attached to the hosts soul and will gradually take over the host. It is not possible to get rid of it with Farm''s current level. It is also not possible to wipe it away without at least spending 200,000 C-points. Host''s strengthened soul seems to have weakened the entity''s influence. It will not awaken until host is at least 20 years old (physically). It is possible for host''s soul to eventually devour the parasitic entity if further strengthened. This is the recommended choice of action...
Vincent: I can absorb it!? Ezra: Yeah, according to what the scan shows, it really might be the best course of action for you... Vincent: What would happen if I do? Ezra: Well, this confirms that you were infected with Nea Walker''s memories, so it might give you the power to transtorm into a Noah... the scan shows that if you devour the ego inside of you, it shouldn''t change your personality. At most, you''ll just see Nea Walker''s memories. Vincent: Okay, but this just leaves me with even more questions... Ezra: Like what? Vincent: Well, like how did I get those memories inside of me? Why did Mana not come for me? How did they even know where to find me? According to what I remember, the original Allen Walker saved Nea and Mana Walker way in the past. But I know for sure that I was barely born a couple of years ago. Ezra: So? Vincent: So, who was it that made Mana and Nea Walker choose me as the person to be injected with Nea''s menories... End Alex: Geez, what took you so long? Klaud: I thought I taught you to always be punctual? Lenalee: Come on, let¡¯s go! I haven¡¯t been to the outside world in a long time. Vincent: Alright, alright, let¡¯s go. Sorry, I just had to make sure I had enough spare clothes(when exactly did these 3 become so open? Oh well, makes things easier for me...) Anyways, let¡¯s go! After so long, it¡¯s finally to do is our duty as exorcists. Lenalee(imouto): I know, but we can still have fun, right? Alex(childhood friend): Why are you being so dramatic? Klaud(sexy nee-san): I know you¡¯ve been wanting to get to work, but make sure you¡¯re not all talk, alright? Vinceny: *sniffle* let¡¯s just go¡­(What the hell!? When did they all become like this? They used to be so easy to tease...) 1 year later¡­ Vincent was now 13 years old. Over the past year, Vincent could say with full certainty, that not a single time did he face as much danger as the time he fought against the 2 Noah. He had mixed feelings about the matter since he wanted to grind for more points, but he also didn¡¯t want to face the Noah with Lenalee and the others as a liability. After all, if he was barely able to kill 1 Noah due to luck, then even if he had grown in strength, he¡¯d never be able to deal with the full force of the Noah family and the Earl, much less protect the rest of his team. All in all, Vincent wasn¡¯t in a rush, but he was always looking forward to finishing his main mission; However, he knew that the more time he had to prepare, the better his chances against the Earl and the Noah were. There were many things that happened this past year. For example, Vincent had his Kidaichu stop breeding at 15,000 since the population had basically reached its maximum capacity for the time being. His progress in terms of shinobi training could also be said to have slowed down quite a lot since he was only relying on exhausting and refilling his chakra to increase it, which was getting harder and harder to do, though his chakra control was still increasing at a consistant rate and he had learned and created plenty of jutsus. His ability to stay in his ¡°Ex-shin¡± form was also reaching a stopping point since he was getting pretty close to reaching the next level and being able to level up his zanpakuto to its bankai form. Right now, he could be considered a ¡°cheat level¡± existence, if it weren¡¯t for the fact that he knew that the Noah were just as cheaty as he was. After all, Tykki himself was able to completely control the laws of physics and Road could open up dimensions. Then include the fact that there were way more of them around, and you have an incredibly overpowered group of existences, all of which were probably still pissed and biding their time who knows where waiting for a chance to kill him. On the bright side, Vincent managed to at least gain some new enhancements and increase his *cough* bonds *cough* with his teammates(pretty much each of them will get a side story at the end of the arc).

That''s basically all that happened during the past year, other than the fact that Ezra managed to increase her magic capacity by enough so that she could be equipped in her battle armor for about an hour. It was a pretty good practice run, but just like what Vincent had assumed before, after one year of easy mode, it was now time for them to kick things up a notch. Right now, Vincent and his team were back at Black Order HQ being briefed by Jack about their new assignment. Klaud: So, I guess we''re finally going overseas, huh? Alex: Finally, this past year has been way to easy going. If it wasn''t for the fact that Vincent would spar with me, I would be bored out of my mind. Lenalee: It might be easy for you, but for me, it was already pretty dangerous. Still, I''m sure that I can at least keep my life when wer''re over there. I don''t want to hide behind Vincent anymore... Vincent: Don''t worry, I don''t plan to protect you forever. Why do you think I trained you so hard? Lenalee: Ugh, don''t remind me... Klaud: Ho~, from the looks of it, I might need to ask you for advice on how to train people, Vincent. Jack: *cough* Excuse me, before you guys started to interrupt me, I was talking about the details of your mission. Vincent: Sorry about that Jack. Jack: It''s fine. By the way, what happened with them? Their personalities became... stronger. Vincent: Hell if I know. Before I knew it, things were already like this. Jack: Hmm... Well, whatever. For now, relax for the rest of the week and pack your bags. You''re leaving for Japan. Vincent: (Damn it. This world has okay levels of technology, but anime is still in its early stages. I guess I can forget about that trip to Akihabara... Oh well, I can probably afford to watch anime with Ezra at night.) Give me an extra day pls A: Yeah, so, just give me 1 day. I don''t have access to a computer today, and typing it on my phone would just take too long... I''ll publish a few more chapters of my other ficiton as an apology to you guys, so check it out. Also, remember to comment on any ideas you guys might have. Also, here''s the name ofthe next world. Don''t read if you guys don''t want to be spoiled...Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. Spoiler: Spoiler History''s Strongest Disciple Chapter 23 RW Chapter 23 Vincent: (Ahhhh, Japan. I always wanted to go there, but unfortunately, this world doesn''t have things like maid cafes yet...Oh well, maybe in my next life. No, wait. It might be possible for me to see one in this life. After all, they''ve already got tvs and stuff, I just have to wait for them to become mainstream. Yes, I''ll do it! No matter how long I have to wait...Heck, I might be able to come up with the idea. Instant millionaire!) Lenalee: Vince-niichan, why were sulking and then became extremelypassionate all of a sudden? Vincent: Ah, it''s nothing. Alex: ...Why do I get the feeling you were thinking something perverted again? Klaud: Geez, I don''t remember raising someone who thinks useless things, right? Vimcent: I-I...okay, maybe I was. Come on, it a natural for guys to think about those kinds of things. (Fuck this. I''m not lying about who I really am, unless it lands me another wife/girlfriend...) Over the years, the 3 girls eventually began to notice the way Vincent would act to certain situations involving them. During their occasional ¡°girls¡¯ talk¡±, they would often talk about Vincent and eventually realized that he was playing all of them. Why they still displayed their affection despite knowing that he was pretty much cheating on them is something that only they themselves know¡­ (A: side chapter). Vincent: *shudder*(Why did I suddenly get a cold feeling...) Lenalee: Vince-niichan, what''s wrong? Vincent: N-Nothing. I just got a feeling of foreboding¡­ Probably nothing. Alex: Alright. Anyways, I guess we should just relax for the next few days before we leave. We¡¯ve been moving around a lot lately, so it¡¯d be nice to just stay in one place for a little while before we go. Besides, it¡¯s not like we have anything important to do. Klaud: Oh, that reminds me. Jack told me after you guys left, and it seems that you guys will finally be getting your own golems. Lenalee: Yay! I¡¯ve always wanted one. Alex: It¡¯s about time. Vincent: I¡¯m looking forward to it (Finally, I want to see if it¡¯s possible to do "that" with the Spatial Farm...) Flashback Vincent: So it really was possible¡­ System Announcement: Due to discovering the artificial, foreign species ¡°akuma¡±, access to it has been granted. Due to the species being counted as ¡°biomechanical¡±, species can be put in storage. Vincent: System, is it possible to optimize the species to make it so that it doesn¡¯t require souls to run on? System Announcement: It is. Vincent: Nice. Now I can start creating them without any real feelings of guilt. Wait¡­ System, do I purchase them or do I just let them come into the space? System Announcement: It is available for purchase, but it is better to allow them to come into the space. The foreign entity¡¯s imprint on them will also be blocked upon exposure. Vincent: That must refer to the fact that the Earl can see and hear through them¡­ Great, I don¡¯t have to worry about that anymore. Okay, let¡¯s start building an army. Let¡¯s see who¡¯s akuma will be better, the earl¡¯s, or my system enhanced one¡¯s¡­ My only regret is that I didn¡¯t bring Tykki¡¯s body in here. I missed out on the chance of gaining such a cheat-like power early on¡­ Oh well, there¡¯s plenty of other Noah, I¡¯m sure I¡¯ll be hella op after this. I wonder if I can do the same to golems... Anyways, Ezra, get over here, I want to see the results of your training first hand.The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. Ezra: *shiver* I-I got it? End Like that, Vincent was able to gain the means to quickly create an army. His teammates never found out about how he sent akuma into his dimension because he was very careful in making sure that whenever he did, he was alone. The only flaw in Vincent¡¯s plan for an army is that he could only upgrade the akuma by one lvl, and only up to lvl2 due the fact that lvl2 was the highest level of the akuma he managed to get in his space. Still, since Vincent was going overseas where there would be plenty of lvl3¡¯s and possibly lvl4¡¯s, he wasn¡¯t that worried. He was also hoping that he would be able the snatch each Noah he came across since he really wanted to see if he could take their power, after all, if he managed it, it would be safe to say that he would probably be ahead of the other players by a lot. Also, it turned out that the system did recognize the golem like it did the akuma, almost leveling it up in the process. Unfortunately, he wouldnt be able to make more of them until he unlocked the factory at level 30. Of course, Vincent was still happy about the possibilities... Japan Vincent: So, this is japan...Dammit, I thought there¡¯d at least be sky scrapers, but there¡¯s only fancy mansions and shrines here¡­ Alex: Vince, what are you mumbling about. Come on, let¡¯s go. We have to meet go to the Japanese branch headquarters. Klaud: We have a schedule to keep, stop dilly dallying and get off the boat. Lenalee: Vince-niichan, once we get settled in, do you want to go around town and go on a date~? Alex/Klaud: *twitch* Vincent: Sure. Alex, Klaud, do you guys want to come with us.(I saw that. Don''t underestimate self-aware harem mc''s!) Alex: *grin* Sure, it¡¯s been awhile since we¡¯ve gone out. Klaud: I don¡¯t see why not. Vincent: (Hell yeah! Fuck dense protagonists, this is the way to go...) Lenalee/ Alex/ Klaud: (He''s making that face again...) Exorcist HQ: Japanese branch Kai: Hello, allow me to welcome you to the Japanese Branch. My name is Kai Izuru, and I''m the branch head. As of right now, you guys are the only exorcists here, the rest are put in the field. They should be back in a week, so until then, please enjoy your stay. After arriving at the Japanese branch, Vincent and his team were quickly greeted by the branch head and told to wait about a week. These instructions were quite welcome since Vincent and the girls rarely got any free time. Lenalee: Vince-niichan, can we go on our date now? Vincent: Alright, might as well. After the date, they all went back to the rooms they were assigned. Of course, after they unpacked everything, they all slept together in Vincent¡¯s room. Vincent thought it strange that they still did this even though he was older, but he didn¡¯t pay much attention to it. He just played it off as them simply seeing him as just a kid. He had no idea just how off he was on that conclusion¡­ Over the course of about a week, the team of 4 simply took things easy. Even Klaud, who never liked to sit still and do nothing, was enjoying the peaceful atmosphere that surrounded them; however, this period of peace and tranquility eventually came to an end once the Japanese exorcists arrived back from there travels. ?: *whistle*They¡¯ve got quite the number of beauties on their team, don¡¯t you think? ?: Yeah, the oldest seems legal while the 2nd oldest looks like she might be in a few years. Lucky you, Erin. Erin: ...I¡¯m good. ?: Tch, you really don¡¯t know the meaning of the term ¡°fooling around¡±, do you?. Klaud: I didn¡¯t think that the exorcists of the Japanese branch would be so useless. ?: Aw, don¡¯t be like that. It was all just a little joke, you know? Erin: Tim, I think you pissed them off. Tim: I¡¯m sure they¡¯ll calm down eventually, right Takeo? Takeo: Yeah, we¡¯re just messing around. Kai: *cough* Alright guys, stop messing around and introduce yourselves. Tim: Hi there, name''s Tim. My twin over there is Takeo, and the 16 year old over there is Erin. We''re the exorcist of the Japanese branch. A pleasure to meet you. Vincent: ...Vincent. TIm: ...You¡¯re not the talkative type, are you? Klaud: It depends on the type of person he¡¯s talking to. Tim: ...Well, I hope that we¡¯ll at least work well together. So, let¡¯s learn more about each other and get acquainted. Alex: I rather go to bed. I¡¯m tired. See you later Vincent. Lenalee: Me too. *yawn* Good night Vince-niichan. Klaud: I guess I¡¯ll turn in as well. Kai: I¡¯ve got more paperwork to do, so we¡¯ll talk more tomorrow. After saying so, the only people left in the room were Tim, Takeo, Erin, and Vincent. Tim: Aw, and I was hoping that the older nee-san would invite me to sleep as well. Well, maybe if I show my mature side, she¡¯ll fall for me. Boy, wanna help a brother out? Vincent: Alright, let me make this clear. Don¡¯t touch them, they¡¯re mine.(B: I see he got that yandere enhancement...) Tim: Wha- Before the japanese exorcists could react, Vincent had transformed his anti-akuma weapon into a sort of tentacle like hand. This was another form he had come up with, and it was extremely useful for trapping and even crushing enemies. He had come up with it when he was about 7, and it took him until he was 12 to be able to use his anti-akuma weapon in this form with ease. He could have any number ranging from 1 to 20. Of course, the size and strength would decrease with the total number, but he still had full control over them. Takeo: W-What is this? Erin: Is this the kid¡¯s anti-akuma weapon? Tim: W-What do you mean there yours. (B: Cause that¡¯s more important...) Vincent: Exactly what it sounds like. I¡¯ll only tell you guys once. DON¡¯T. MAKE. A. MOVE. ON. THEM. Otherwise, I¡¯ll make sure you guys never lose your virginity in this life. Understand? Takeo/Tim/Erin: *nod* x 99 Vincent: Good, then we have no problems. I hope we¡¯ll work well together during our time here~ Takeo/Tim/Erin: D-demon!!! Vincent: (That¡¯s right. I¡¯m not those shitty harem mc¡¯s who don¡¯t know when to tell people to back off! Deal with it!) After making sure that the 3 exorcists wouldn¡¯t be getting any funny ideas any time soon, Vincent made his way back to his room where Klaud, Alex, and Lenalee were already waiting for him in their pajamas. After apologizing for taking so long, they all went under the covers and went to sleep hugging each other. Vincent felt tired for some reason, so he told Ezra that he¡¯d go check on her the following morning. With that out of the way, Vincent enjoyed the night bathed in the warmth of 3 top-tier beauties, something that Tim and Takeo would probably cry about if they knew. The next morning, after checking up on Ezra, Vincent and his team were informed by Kai about the contents of their next mission. Klaud: ...So, there¡¯s finally been another innocence sighting, huh? When Squad Nine went on missions, despite the fact that they almost always found akuma, they never really came across any innocence despite the promising leads they found. Now that they were finally being sent on a recovery mission, it wasn¡¯t an exagerration to say that they were a bit excited. Kai: According to our sources, there has been strange occurences of a large tree growing in the middle of a dense forest. Anyone we¡¯ve sent in to investigate has yet to come out. Even golems we send in mysteriously go offline. We don¡¯t want to risk any more lives which is the primary reason for why we sent for your help in the matter. Tim and the others will also be assisting you in this matter. Klaud: Alright, we understand. We¡¯ll leave immediately. Vincent: *glare* Tim''s team: *shudder* Chapter 24 RW Chapter 24 Right now, Vincent and his team, along with the Japanese exorcists, were making their way to the rapidly expanding forest. They were travelling by coach, and the road was pretty bumpy, resulting in Klaud¡¯s mesmerizing jiggle physics. Once Tim noticed, he immediately lost all sense of time as his focus became entirely centered on those wonders of god. Of course, Vincent wasn''t gonna have any of that. Tim: (Ohhhhh, how I wish I could touch those melons...) *bang* Lenalee: W-what happened to him? Vincent: He was being an idiot, so I knocked some sense into him. *glare* Tim: *shiver* hehehehe, just enjoying the scenery, nothing else. Klaud: (Ha, so he can get jealous...) Try not to be so useless and continue with the explanation. Tim: Alright, alright. So, according to what information we''ve already gathered from the locals near the forest, it seems the there used to be a shrine under the largest tree in the middle of the forest. The locals would always go their once a year to tend to it. About a week ago, when it was time to once again check it out, one of the local children accidentally knocked over the shrine. When this happened, a small seed of light fell out of a box that no one had any idea where it came from. It landed on the trunk of the giant tree, and was absorbed under the eyes of the present villagers. After that, the tree started to grow at an extreme rate, forcing the villagers to run away. The growth rate also seemed to spread to the rest of the forest, expanding it at an inconceivable rate. It''s now over 3x its original size according to our estimations. Takeo: That''s a pretty fast growth rate. Tim: I''ll say. Vincent: So, do you guys have any more in-depth details regarding the type of innocence that could be the cause of all this. Other than the description of a seed of light, we''ve got nothing more to go on. Even the villagers don''t know where the mysterious box came from. According to what they told us, the box wasn''t there last year. Klaud: So, someone must have placed it there. But who would just leave innocence lying about? Tim: That''s also something we''ll have to investigate, but for now, our number 1 priority will be to bring back the innocence to headquarters. Vincent: Oh, the coach stopped. Looks like we''re finally here. (What''s this weird feeling I''ve got.. Anyways, let''s get off, looks like I need to stab the fact that they''re not his into Tim¡¯s head.) Tim: (...I am so jealous that he gets to enjoy those...) *bang* Ahhhh! (B: And that is the last they ever heard from him again...)
Alex: ...So, this is the forest. I didn''t think it''d be this big¡­ Klaud: There''s so much vegetation that even Lau is feeling disturbed even though this is technically his home turf¡­ Vincent: (This better level up my god damn farm...The thing takes ages to upgrade, unlike in its original story.) Alright, let''s go in. POV shift ?: Looks like they took the bait¡­ ??: Finally, we''ll have our revenge for what happened to Tykki¡­ ???: Patience. We want to make sure we get rid of them without losing anyone else this time. We have to be fully prepared. ??: ...Alright, just as long as the boy dies. POV original Lenalee: This forest is pretty dense¡­ Vince-niichan, can you hold my hand so that I don''t get lost~ Vince: Sure (She''s been really spoiled lately. The weird thing is that Alex and Klaud aren''t acting up as much anymore. I know they aren''t losing interest in me since they also still ask to do things together, but what are they thinking that''s making them act this way...) Klaud: Vincent, stop day dreaming. Lau looks like he found the area where the innocence is located at. Come on, we''re close.The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. Vincent: Oh, right. After about a few hours of walking, the group finally chanced upon the area where the innocence tree was located at. They could see it from outside the forest, but once they were inside, the forest was so packed that there was absolutely no lighting to help see. Everyone in the group had highly trained senses, but even then, it would have been quite the task to navigate the large forest. They did try climbing up above the tree tops, but the forest seemed to shift whenever they went down, making it so that they would seem to go in circles. The only reason the group was able to navigate the maze-runner like labrynth of a forest was because of Lau and his basic animal instincts along with the fact that as a living innocence, he had the unique ability to resonate with other innocence and pick up on their location. Of course, the range was limited which was why Lau took so long to pick up on the location of the innocence. Takeo: Finally, we found it. Indeed, the group of exorcists had finally reached their destinations, a tree that put skyscrapers to shame became discernible through the thick foliage from 50m away. Just the immense thickness was enough to paint awe on their faces, so one could imagine their expressions when they got close enough to see how tall the tree was up close. Vincent: ...This is why you don''t mess with mother nature¡­ Hey, Alex, would you want to have a race to see who could climb to the top the fastest? Alex: Uh, I''ll pass on that. I think I''ll just spar with you like we usually do¡­ Klaud: Vincent, that''s enough horsing around. We''ve got to take the innocence back so that the forest will return back to normal. Who knows if the Earl and the Noah are already on their way here. Vincent: (Ohhhhh shit. Of course, they''re already here, aren''t they. Haaahhhh. Sonofabitch. It''s most likely them if there really was someone luring us out here. I was wondering why they hadn''t attack all this time and why I had this feeling. Damn it, and I thought my knowledge of anime tropes was op...) Alright, if I''m wrong, then great, and if I''m right, then I can probably get a bunch of new stuff from the spoils of war. I''ll also be better prepared and- Lenalee: Vince-niichan, what were you spacing out and babbling about? Vincent: Ah, nothing. (Just thinking with the intelligence and processing of a superhuman...) So, all I have to do is take out the small glow golden orb, right? Klaud: ? What orb? Vincent: The one that''s shining pretty noticeably despite the fact it''s small. Can you guys really not see it? Everyone else: *nod* Vincent: ...Well, since I''m the only one who can see it, and it fits the description of the innocence, then I''ll just pull it out. Lenalee: Vince-niichan, be careful. Vincent: I''ll be fine. (God, I wish she never grows up... Nah, can''t wait till she does...) *pop* *rumble* After Vincent took the golden seed out of the trunk, the colasal tree started to shake and fall apart as if it could no longer support itself. The rest of the trees did the same, and simply started to deteriorate at a rapid rate. During the minute it took for the entire forest to finish changing, large clouds of dust would block the group''s vision. By the end of the transformation, only small trees and plants were still standing. The rest had become nutrients that layered upon the forest floor. Tim: That''s some serious deforestation. Erin: Did you seriously try to make a joke? Tim: What can I do, I''m quite the comedian. Klaud: *cough* Is anyone hurt? Tim: No, we''re all good. Vincent: The innocence is also safe. (Why do I feel like my soul is connecting to the innocence. No, a more accurate description is that it''s connecting to-) Ana: Mike! Vincent: Ana!? Ana: Mike, the innocence in your hand is trying to resonate with me. It feels like it wants to somehow combine. It doesn''t really have a sentient will yet, so I shouldn''t really have my personality altered. This is a great chance, we can''t miss it. (Yoko: They''re gonna combine!) Vincent: (Alright, Let''s do that later. For now, we should focus on getting out of here since we don''t know if-) ?: Well, well, well. Look who''s here. Vincent: (Fuuuuuck. It really is them.) Road: Hi there, did you miss me? Cause I really wanted to meet you again¡­ Coming out of a mysterious doorway to the left of the group were 3 grey skinned humanoids followed by a pretty big army of high level akuma (even some lvl 4¡¯s were present). Tim: So, those are Noah... Of course, the only known humanoids to be naturally gray skinned were of course, those of the Noah family. After the incident involving the Sophie and the others, the entire Black Order had been notified about the affiliation of the Noah family and the Millennium Earl. This fact was later confirmed by the bookmen who decided to work with the Black Order a year ago. (Vincent hadn''t gotten a chance to meet them yet...) Although the Noah family hadn''t really made any moves since then, almost every person working for the Black Order at least knew how to identify them. Klaud: Everyone get ready. Looks like we''re gonna have to fight our way through! ?: Oh, this is gonna be so fun! ???: I agree, revenge is very fun indeed... Vincent: (Ughhhhh, this is gonna be a pain. 3 Noahs and what looks to be an army of at least 200 lvl 3¡¯s and 3 lvl 4¡¯s. How did they even upgrade them this much?)
CE: Oh yeah, Mike, I have something to tell you.
Vincent (Mike): (CE!?)
CE: Yeah, it''s me. Anyways, so I forgot to mention this, but if certain players get too strong, I''ll either nerf them or make them face harder challenges. In your case, you''ve grown a little too strong, so I''ve had to help the other side just a little. I honestly didn''t expect the least qualified candidate to get this far so quickly... *cough*Anyways, I gave the antagonists of your story a way to increase the lvl of the akuma faster than just having to farm humans. Well, I''m sure you''ll be fine. Besides, think of all the points you''ll get. Hey, if you survive this, let''s go for a drink some time. I need a good a drinking buddy, you know? Oh, you better start paying attention to your surroundings, otherwise this is going to hurt a lot. Also, don''t be surprised if 1 or 2 of the Noah ¡°awaken¡±.
Vincent: ...CE you motherf-! *boom* Lenalee/Alex and Klaud: Vince-niichan!/ Vincent! Chapter 25 RW Chapter 25 Last time on Dragon ReRo, the notorious author known as writerd101 left his super supportive followers on a cliff hanger, simply giving them the impression that something terrible had occurred to the main character, Vincent Nine (aka Mike Unknown). Little did they know that in reality, his plot armor is way too thick, most likely due to the fact that he has to have plot armor in the first place in order to get a story of this quality written about him by me. Now, back to the story. Story Heroines: Vincent!? Because Vincent wasn''t really paying attention due to CE¡¯s interference, it was quite easy for the level 4¡¯s to appear right next to him and launch a surprise attack. If it wasn''t for his super high stats, which will be shown at the end of this chapter, he would have easily died right then and there, ending any chance he''d have of becoming an OP mc. Road: Aw, why was it so easy to get rid of him? I wanted to enjoy toying with him until he kept on screaming and screaming for days- Vincent: You are one fucked up girl. (Screw her, she went too far. Sorry, but you''re not going to be a heroine in my story. No way I''m getting one that is this bat shit crazy... Ezra doesn''t count. Well¡­ maybe someone like Yuno from Mirai Nikki, but then I''d have to restrain her too much and I-) Shit! *boom* Let me finish my inner thoughts! Klaud: Language! Vincent: Sorry, but I''m kinda busy right now! *bang* Why are they all going for me!? Klaud: Whatever, after this, we''re having another talk young man. Lau, let''s go help out. Lau: *monkey noises*(Alright.) Alex: Lenalee, we should go to. Lenalee: Right. Tim: Ughhhhh, this is gonna be a pain in the ass, isn''t it. Takeo: Yup. Erin: Looks like it. Tim: *exhales* Screw it, let''s go and make sure nothing happens to the girls, otherwise our ending might not look pretty. I can see the kid already giving us the evil eye, and I don''t know about you, but I don''t want to piss off the 13 year old who can survive being ambushed by whatever new type of akuma those are. And with that, the most epic battle in the history of Black Order occurred. A group of highly trained elite exorcists against 3 of the Noah and an army of high level akuma was about to begin. It would be a fierce battle, most likely full of bloodshed, death on both sides, and a- Oh, there goes Tim. Tim¡¯s anti-akuma weapon was a golden pen that allowed for whatever he drew to come to life. Of course, what he could bring to life was limited to the amount of faith energy he had and his resonance with his innocence, but he was a well trained veteran, making it so that he could at least summon a few flying weapons to help level the playing field. Of course, even if there was an overwhelming amount of weapons, the strength of each one was only enough so that they could take care of level 3¡¯s. Tim accidentally brought the attention of one of the lvl 4¡¯s to himself when he strayed a little bit too close to it, so it instantly made quick work of him. Sadly he had been a bit too preoccupied watching a certain someone''s jiggle physics. Time: ...Worth it. *cough* Erin/Takeo: Tim!!!!!!!!!!! Klaud/Lenalee/Alex: !!! He''s dead!? Vincent: Oh no, he''s dead. (...I didn''t want him to actually die, I just wanted him to stop ogling Klaud¡¯s tits... Well, he wasn''t all that bad, he at least tried to protect everyone... I''m sorry, rest in peace you-) Let me finish mourning! Do you know how hard it is to say goodbye while having to deal with this many lvl 4¡¯s! ?: Oh, you actually recognize them. Tell me, how do you know about them? I was positive that the Black Order had absolutely no idea about them. Vincent: That''s for me to know and for you to not have to worry about for much longer since you''re gonna be dead soon. (Ana, how''s that merging going? I can''t stall for much longer, I need that well timed power boost. Any second now¡­ You know how tiring it is for me to be in this mode!!!) Halfway through the fight, Vincent had gone into his ex-shini mode, allowing him to actually dodge the first few attacks of the lvl 4¡¯s and even manage to injure some of them. Even if his capacity for both faith and soul energy had gone up, it was still tiring to continuously dodge a bunch of high level akuma. Ana: (Sorry, I''m almost done synchronizing. Besides, this is literally making the innocence a part of your soul, this is pretty much gonna guarantee you 100% resonance with it without any side effects. Just hang on a little while longer.) Vincent: (Easier said than done. The only reason no one else died after Tim did is because I''ve made extra sure that no lvl 4¡¯s are targeting anyone besides me.) Ana: (Just 1 more minute...) The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. Road: Oh, this is boring. Hey, do you guys want to go and help them out. ?: I guess I''ll go test out the boy''s strength. ??: I''ll wait a little bit. Vincent: Oh great, the fat one''s coming over. Go away, I don''t have time for you! ?: Hey, I''m just big boned!!! Just stay there and get mobbed to death! Vincent: !!! (Oh my god, he can control my movement!? Now that I think about it, I don''t even know who he is. Is he an original Noah!?) That''s right. This particular Noah was indeed an original of this world and had the ability to control a person''s movement through the use of chains, binding them in place. (A: That''s all I''m saying, I don''t want to give any more background about this minor antagonist.) And with Vincent¡¯s movements completely sealed off, he could do anything to stop the attack made by the group of lvl 4s. His only way out would be if he were to somehow gather the power of friendship and forcefully- Ana: (Vincent, I finished integrating with it.) Or just the usual mc power boost. Whatever works. Vincent: (About time!) Now, let''s see what changed. !!! Oh, me likey~ Vincent¡¯s zanpakuto no longer looked the way it did before. It was now way longer and constantly moving vines etched into the blade seemed to be moving about as if they were alive. On the hilt of the blade was the golden seed that was most likely where all the faith energy was kept separate from the soul energy. When the blade appeared with a golden glow, every pair of eyes on the battlefield instantly looked towards it as if they were drawn to its magnificent glory. The exorcists looked at it with eyes full of hope, the akuma looked at it as if it was the bane of their existence, and the Noah exchanged glances that made people feel that they were asking each other ¡°what the heck is that?¡± Vincent: (Ana, be honest, you were waiting for that exact moment, weren''t you?) Ana: (Maybe, but I got you those reactions, right?) Vincent: (I am so gonna beat your ass down and then drag you to the bedroom after this...) Ana: (You''ll have to deal with all of this first before that though¡­ So, hurry up and finish it.) Vincent: (Yes ma''am!) *dbz power yell* ?: W-what is he doing? His power, I can''t control him anymore! How is this possible!!!? Lenalee: Wow, Vince-niichan is glowing! Klaud: What did the kid do this time? Alex: He better teach me how to do that afterwards... Actually, it kinda looks dumb... Road: No! You''re supposed to die an insignificant bug, you can''t just grow stronger like this you damn cockroach!!! Vincent: Too bad, cause I''m doing it. Now, Steel fangs devour all!!! (I should really practice just chanting in my head...) After finishing the chant, Vincent¡¯s Zanpakuto stabbed itself into the ground and simultaneously steel spikes popped out, skewering nearly 80% of the akuma, including all of the lvl 4 ones. Of course, Vincent made sure to send some of them to his spatial farm when he was sure no one was looking. There was no way he was gonna give away free upgrades.
System: Due to the discovery of higher lvl species: akuma, every akuma in your storage has been upgraded by at least 1 lvl up to the maximum lvl 4.
Vincent: (...Worth it!) *cough* That took more out of me than I thought. Oh, I even managed to stab the fat one. Lucky~ his body is covered by a bunch of blades, so no one can see his corpse. I''ll be taking that~
System: Do to the discovery of foreign entity: Noah, you can now absorb its ability. Gained: Noah Ning¡¯s imprisoner ability.
Road: Ning¡­ You!!! I''ll kill you!!! Vincent: So he did have a name¡­ (Oi, why is she giving me a bad feel- Oh, sh*t.) Road: Killkilkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkill¡­ Klaud: ...I''ve got a bad feeling about this. Road: Ahhhhhhh!!!!!! Vincent immediately put 2 and 2 together once he saw Roads state of mind and remembered what CE had told him... Road had awakened. ??: ...I should get out of here. It''s way too dangerous. Sorry Road, but you can''t tell friend or foe in this state. I''ll be sure to avenge you though¡­ goodbye dear cousin. Vincent¡­ I''ll be sure to get back at you for what you did to my family today. With those parting words, the skinny boy left the area as fast as his legs could carry him. No one pursued or noticed him for that matter considering that they were all too busy struggling to stand under the ominous and formidable pressure Road was giving off. Her veins seemed to be entirely black as they pulsated in an extremely grotesque manner. After about 20 seconds of this, her veins exploded as blood gushed out, seemingly changing the form of her body into that of a nightmare. The end result was that Road no longer resembled anything that could be classified as a girl. Not even a monster would fit the bill. Wait, there is one word that does. Demon. A blob of pure dark liquid nearly the size of a house, with its very presence disturbing the very dimension it was in, causing tiny cracks to appear in it here and there. It''s red eyes were enough to scare a normal person to death, and they contained a boundless rage within. At this time, Vincent had only one though go through his mind.

Kunai, Shurikens, Kidaichu, etc. Contracted Sentient Life Forms: ES- Exchange System A.I C-Points: (Next chapter...) Chapter 26 RW Chapter 26 Vincent was extremely depressed at this moment. Not only did he notice that a potential power up resource had fled unnoticed, he now had to fight an awakened, pissed off Noah while trying to keep everyone else from dying. Yup, being the protagonist was the best job in the world. Vincent: (If I had to deal with this, I would have preferred my first world to have been highschool dxd or to love ru...It could be worse. At least there aren''t any other akuma left around. It seems like Klaud and everyone else took care of most of them while the rest seemed to instantly be destroyed since they were right next to Road when she transformed. So, all I got to do is defeat Road, take her dimension powers, and get the hell out of here. Piece of cake, though I don''t want anymore surprises after this. Who knows if reinforcements will come via the Ark, cause that is something I don''t want to deal with just yet...) Alright everyone, we just have to take her down and we win. Klaud: Alright, but can you explain what exactly are we fighting? Lenalee: Vince-niichan, what happened to the girl? S-She looks like a monster. Alex: More of a demon to me, with them red eyes. Takeo: ...At least Tim doesn''t have to be a part of the final battle. I feel like this is gonna be a long fight. Erin: Yeah, I don''t know if I have the energy for it. Vincent: (Aw, poor Takeo...)Okay, everyone eat one of these. They should help you out. Vincent then proceeded to toss out Senzu beans, making sure everyone got one. (Road chose to just continue her power up without interrupting them, just like the good little antagonist she is.) Alex: ...um, I don''t think these will help much. Vincent: Just eat it. Everyone, except for Lenalee who already knew about the Senzu beans, gave each other a strange look before consuming them. The effects were immediate, and everyone felt that it was unbelievable that something so small could be full of so much energy. Klaud: Where did you get those? With them, we might be able to survive fighting that. Vincent: I sort of managed to bond the innocence we found to my sword here and it gave it the ability to produce them. Alex: But wasn''t that sword already something like innocence? How could you fuse them?If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Vincent: They were both already related to plants, so it wasn''t really that hard. Besides, weren''t they originally one? !!! Anyways, enough talking, I think that''s all the time she''s given us to talk. After Vincent gave his half-assed lie, it seemed that Road would no longer give them any more prep time. She started acting up, letting them know that there standard "turn-the-tide" planning time was all used up. Road: Killkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkill¡­Ahhhhh! Takeo: Oi, why is the world becoming even more messed up. There''s ripples and cracks everywhere and they seem to be becoming even more violent. Also, what''s that black mist!? It''s making my innocence react violently! I''ve never seen this before... Takeo¡¯s innocence, a black whip, seemed to be rattling in his hand as if it yearned to run away as fast as possible away from the blob of darkness. Everyone except for Vincent¡¯s innocence acted this way, even Lau who had all his hair standing up, making him look nearly twice his size (B: Biology lesson right there.) Lenalee: ...Vincent-niichan, s-should we run? Klaud: I think it might be for the best, that is, if we could leave. I''m not so sure anymore. During their conversation, the space around them seemed to become increasingly distorted until there surroundings changed from the remnants of a forest into an infinite pitch black darkness. When the darkness faded, they were now in a dark room, full of candles everywhere for light. Vincent: (...this is probably Road¡¯s basic dimension, but why does it look way more sinister than in the anime... ) Road: Kill. The. Brat. ROARRRRR! The blob of darkness that was once Road Camelot started to slowly make its ways towards Vincent, it''s red eyes completely focusing on him. It was as if all it saw in its vision was him. To any man, that kind of treatment would be welcome from a girl, but absolutely not from a black blob of death that personally wants to kill you in the most painful way imaginable. (A: Just like my ex-wife...)(B: But he never married...) Alex: !!!Vincent, it seems to want you. Hurry, move to the back and we''ll try to stall it. Come on everyone! Vincent didn''t want to hide behind them, but everyone else was already moving before he could protest. All he could at the moment was stay behind and try to recover his energy from the earlier battle. Of course, that could easily take a second with a Senzu bean, but he wanted to see how things would play out. However, the second something went wrong, he''d transport everyone into his spatial farm. Still, he wouldn''t use that trump card unless absolutely necessary. Besides, if someone did die, then he could just use his shinigami powers that catch their soul and make them into one of his contracted sentient beings. He was planning on asking Klaud, Alex, and Lenalee some day anyways, so it''s not like it was a last resort or anything. He was confident his bond with everyone was at a high enough level to where they would still accept him. He was the protagonist after all, and every heroine accepts the protagonist! (B: umm¡­ check the more recent ones...) Of course, he hoped to save them before they died, but he wasn''t sure of how things would play out just yet, so he thought it would be better to hold onto some of his cards before he chose to reveal them... And so, the battle began without Vincent¡¯s influence. The first ones to make a move were Takeo, Erin, and Lau since they were the tanks of the group. Takeo had a whip that could grow to any length and that he could control with ease while Erin had gauntlets that generated explosive punches and could change their weight. Takeo first tried restraining the blob¡¯s movement by having his whip coil around it, but he found that whenever his whip came into contact with it, it would just phase through it as if it wasn''t real. The same results were given when Erin and Lau tried attacking. They just couldn''t make their attacks hit. Eventually though, the blob seemed to get annoyed and made a loud screeching sound, enough to make everyone cover their ears with their hands. Poor Lau had it worse since his body was designed to have higher specs and he was close to the black blob. Once the sound ended, Erin, Takeo, and Lau were kicked out of the dimension. Klaud: Lau!!! Vincent: (...I kind of feel bad for Erin and Takeo.) Oh god, Klaud! Road: Roar!!! When Vincent let down his guard because of the comedic scene of Erin, Takeo, and Lau falling through a hole, Road had taken the initiative to use the black mist to attack the now defenseless Klaud. It instantly transformed into black stakes which impaled Klaud, leaving her lying on the floor in her pool of blood while her life force started to sharply decline. At this point, Vincent instantly regretted his reckless actions, cursing himself for thinking that he was strong enough as he was. Although Vincent had already consumed some Senzu beans, he was still caught off guard and didn''t make it to Klaud on time. So under everyone''s watchful eye, Vincent and Klaud disappeared into a patch of black mist. Poll: What do you guys think? Lulu Bell (Google her if you guys don''t know who she is.

Before I became an exorcist and joined the Black Order, I used to be an animal trainer at my parent''s circus called Nine¡¯s Home of Pandemonium. Ever since I could remember, I had always been helping my parents out, whether it be through doing random jobs or taking care of animals. Despite how busy my parents might be running a circus, they would always make sure to have enough time to hang out with me, never mistreating me. It was because of this that I always knew I was loved by the both of them. Because of my unique way of life, I never really had a lot of time to make friends or really interact with people outside of the audience. My parents were the only ones I cared about, that is, until I met my partner Lau. It was my 9th birthday when we first met. I was running around the port in one of the cities we were stopping in when I saw Lau out of the corner of my eye lying unconscious on a wooden box. I approached him and saw that he was slightly injured. When my hand came into contact with him, I felt a slight connection between me and him being established. In that moment, I saw his life flash before my eyes.
There was an ordinary fruit growing on a tree in the middle of a rainforest when a lightning bolt suddenly struck it, giving it a golden shine. One day, after who know how long, a monkey came and picked off the fruit. It then brought back the fruit to where it''s pregnant mate was about to give both and fed her it. After the first bite, the glow of the fruit faded away and it dissolved into dust. This alerted the male, but his mate started going into labor at this point so he shrugged it off while he stared worriedly at his mate, hoping that there would be no side effects. After a few minutes, the baby was born. It had pinkish skin with small amounts of hair covering it. The parents saw nothing wrong with it, so they chose to forget about the fruit and live the following years as they had originally planned. Lau grew up without any problems whatsoever. He had the same color fur as everyone else, he had his basic animal instincts, and he could move properly. He was even slightly more intelligent and stronger than others his age. This earned him top spot in his tribe of monkeys. His father was originally the head of the tribe, so Lau grew up pretty well off. His father would often encourage him to take up some of the girls from his harem, but Lau would always decline, saying that he felt it was wrong. Regardless of how strange Lau¡¯s attitude was, his father didn''t care all that much and just let Lau do what he wanted. The peaceful times lasted for a long time¡­ eventually though, that era came to an end. After a few years of peace, strange sounds started to come from nearby parts of the forest, followed by the sound of trees falling over. These sounds persisted for months, and whenever they would get closer, the tribe would make its way away from it. Eventually, Lau decided to investigate, and went off on his own to try and find out the cause of the loud noises. What he found when he made it to his destination was something that he had never seen before. Human beings. What Lau found were humans cutting down trees with huge pieces of metal. Lau¡¯s curiosity got the better of him so he chose to try and make contact with the strange creatures in front of him. When he made his way towards them, 3 of the humans caught sight of him and gave off his location. ?: Check it out, it''s a rare white toon monkey! And it looks quite young¡­ ??: Aren''t those the really expensive monkeys that people thought to be extinct? ??: Everyone, catch that monkey and we''ll be well off enough to retire early!!! Everyone: Ooohhhh!!! And so, the humans chased poor Lau for a whole day until Lau seemingly lost them. However, he quickly found out that he was wrong. ?: Caught you! Just as Lau thought he was safe up in a tree, he felt it start to fall down. Desperate to get off, Lau jumped for a nearby tree which he almost made it to except a net came down on him before he made. ??: Hahaha! It''s just like the boss said, he would jump even though the distance was quite far. Hell yeah, we''re rich! After that, the rest of the memories I saw were quite jumbled up, with Lau having many interesting adventures before he finally made it to where I am. (A: Do you guys think I should give Lau his own story?) When I came to and realized where I was, Lau was looking down at me with eyes full of worry. I was glad that his injuries seemed to be gone, but then I remembered that I had a delivery to pick up. I asked Lau if he wanted to come with me and he just jumped on top of my head and hung on. Since I was still young, I didn''t really understand what had just happened so I just decided to go on with my daily life. It wasn''t until many years later that I understood what had really happened¡­ It happened a few days after my 16th birthday. I was now an official part of my parent''s circus as the animal trainer. Ever since Lau came into life, I found that animals would mysteriously act more in line with my instructions. This had earned the respect of my parents and I was given permission to start training the animals. My parents didn''t really ask about Lau that much, so we were allowed to stay together. It was during the middle of our show when it happened. ?: Everyone run, there''s monsters attacking!!! ??: Run!!! They''re shooting at us! *scream* Me: Mom! Dad! WHERE ARE YOU!? Despite the danger, I went looking for my parents to make sure that they were alright. I went towards where my parents should have been behind the curtains, but what I found left me horrified. Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. Akuma: Oh, so sorry, but it seems like you''re parents are dead. Don''t worry, you''ll be joining them soon, so just stay right there for now. In front of my eyes were my now dead parents with bullet holes through their heads. Next to them were 2 strange looking creatures with cannons on their bodies and a weird animal unlike anything I''d ever seen that spoke to me. Me: ...Did you kill mom and dad? Akuma: Hahaha, we sure did, but like I said, don''t worry, just sit back and- What the $#%$!!! I couldn''t think straight at that moment. All I felt was an intense desire was to turn the monsters in front of me into ash for taking away 2 of the 3 people I cared about besides myself. I wanted them to disappear. I wanted them dead. And it is through those feelings of mine that caused Lau to first transform. Ever since we met, we had always had a bond just like any other exorcist and their innocence. Although I didn''t know those terms at the time, that didn''t change what we were. Lau was my innocence, and as my innocence, he was my anti-akuma weapon. He reacted to my feelings of wanting the akuma destroyed, and transformed for the first time. I don''t remember much about how Lau killed them, but I do remember the clear picture of the akuma lying in pieces in front of me with Lau in his battle form. When I regained my awareness, I realized that Lau was back to his normal self and was lying on my shoulder while a group of people were standing next to me. They were exorcists, and when they arrived at town to deal with the akuma, they came across me. They asked me questions about who I was, and when I showed them Lau, they told me that I was also an exorcist. Since I knew that my parents were dead and what I experienced wasn''t a dream, I decided that it''d be better to just go with them since this way I could stay with Lau. They told me that I had to go with them to be able to stay with him. I didn''t want to lose anymore loved ones.
Over the following years, I learned how to properly fight and have Lau transform into his battle mode. I also learned that Lau was the only animal innocence to ever be seen, and this made it so that I was especially groomed to be one of the best exorcists. Before I eventually became a general, there were only 2 other ones at the time. I didn''t become a general until I was 19, but that bastard Cross managed it when he was 18¡­ Oh, did I forget to mention that idiotic, disgusting waste of space\loser of a man? During my first year of becoming an exorcist the bastard would constantly hit on me. I think that if Lau wasn''t intimidating enough, then he might have tried sexually harassing me¡­ I trained myself extra hard to make sure that never happened. And so, life continued like that for a while. Everyone at Black Order headquarters was nice to me, so I saw them as friends. However, I never really saw anyone besides Lau as anything close to family. Don''t get me wrong, I would do my best to help everyone, but I just never felt that thick of a bond with anyone else¡­ that is, until I met a little boy by the name, Vincent. I had been called back from duty for the annual general meeting when I first met him. I was extremely surprised when a 5 year old boy walked into the room. I had been told he was young despite his feats, but I hadn''t thought him to be this young! If that wasn''t enough, apparently it turned out that after being probed, he was supposedly humanity''s saviour. This wasn''t the end, oh no. The next surprise came when he told me the reason he chose me to be his mentor was because he said I looked like his mother. Me, a mother!? I had devoted almost all my time to working that I never really had any thoughts on the matter, so I was quite thrown off. That damn Cross was laughing his ass off, goddamnit kid, you just gave him more ammo to annoy me with¡­ After getting to know Vincent better, I came to see that he wasn''t quite as useless as I thought he''d be. If anything, he''d be my ideal man, that is, if he was older. No way anything would happen between. As far as this relationship goes, it is strictly buisness. (B:Wait for it...)
OMG. What just happened!!! How could I do that!!! I hadn''t even kissed a guy and I went that far with a kid who- Just how could my drunk self allow this to happen!? Aw, but he looks so adorable when he sleeps¡­W-wait a minute, don''t get sidetracked. Um... Ah! I-it was just so we could bond, that''s it! Besides, this won''t happen later on, it''s like we took a bath! Things like baths between family members is perfectly alright. So it''s alright to do that as much as I want since it''s for his well-being. (B: Gentleman, take notes. This is how to brainwash a milf.)
I, I just can''t stop. He makes me feel powerless¡­
M-more~
I-I think he''s actually awake when he does it, otherwise he wouldn''t be so skillful¡­
Hyah! I don''t care anymore, I can''t live without him. He''s so caring, he''s so mature, and he- Hyah, I''m dying!!!
I don''t like how Alex hangs out with Vincent so much¡­ He better make up for it tonight¡­
Oh great, another one. Wait, why are they gonna be living with us!? Aww, our nightly activities are gonna decrease...
I-I can''t take it!!! I know he''s awake when he does it, so it should be alright if I ask him to do it during the day when we''re alone, right?
It''s just me and the other 2 today. We decided to have a girl''s talk. Turns out I was right, Vincent was doing naughty things with them¡­ W-will he stop doing them with me if I tell him to stop? NO, I don''t want him to hate me!!! I don''t care if it''s not just me, just as long as he stays with me forever¡­ ah, I see. I''m not the only one. The others feel the same. Alright, since we''re in agreement, then let''s support each other so that Vincent will never leave us!!! Fufufu, get ready Vincent, it''s all because you started it... Present time Ahh¡­ What happened? I think I got attacked by the black mist and then I felt like I was stabbed¡­ Ahh, it feels so cold and dark¡­ am I dead? But I don''t want to be dead, I want to stay with Lau and Vincent forever. Please, someone, Lau, Vincent, save me¡­ ?: *chuckle* So that''s how you feel. Understood Klaud, you''ll be staying with me and Lau forever. Remember though, if you agree, then you''re mine forever as well. So, what do you want to do? Who is that? It isn''t a voice I''ve ever heard before, but it feels so familiar¡­ it gives me a warm feeling¡­ I want to stay with the owner of this voice. He said I can be with Lau, but what about Vincent? ?: Don''t worry, he''ll also be there. You''ll be his forever and ever. But wouldn''t I be yours? Wait... are you Vincent? Vincent: Thought you''d never recognise me. Yup, it''s me. So, what do you say Klaud? Can I really be with you and Lau forever and ever? Vincent: yup. Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and do it you dumb brat. Vincent: Ho~ looks like you need some more conditioning. Don''t worry, we can work on that later¡­ for now though, hurry up and accept. ??: Player Mike Unknown has sent you a Sentient Being Contract. Do you wish to accept? I do. ??: Authorization accepted. From now, you will forever belong to Player Mike Unkown. Vincent: Good girl. Now, relax a little bit. Lau should be okay, so just rest worry free for now. After this over, I''ll explain things more carefully to you later. You better. Trying to make a fool out of me¡­ I''m starting to fade into a deep sleep¡­ I feel at peace right now. I am happy. My name is Klaud Nine. I had a wonderful pair of caring parents. My beloved family used to be just them and Lau. Now it includes one more person, the man who is the reason I feel so relaxed. His name is Vincent Nine, and though the me in the past would probably never think it, I want to stay with him for the rest of my life... Chaper 28 RW Chapter 28 After Klaud was stabbed to near death, the black mist started to cover her as if it was trying to devour her very existence. Vincent saw this and immediately appeared next to her, sword ready. The mist covered him as well, and the next thing he knew, he could see nothing except him and Klaud floating in what seemed like an endless void. Vincent didn''t pay attention to his surroundings for long and just made his way toward Klaud. When he got close enough, he noticed that her life force was nearly all gone. The Senzu beans wouldn''t be able to do much for her unless he healed up her body. Luckily, the real power of the innocence he had binded to Ana was that it accelerated growth. The only problem was that Vincent had absolutely no practice using that ability, so just to heal Klaud would most likely drain all the energy his body had just to ensure nothing went wrong with the process. In that moment with Klaud slowly dying, Vincent made his decision. His zanpakuto slowly inserted itself into Klaud¡¯s chest, changeing its standard dark green color to a glowing light green. Klaud¡¯s wounds also started to glow in the same way after the blade lodged itself firmly into her body, with the hilt barely visible between her bountiful hills. The sight was pretty bizarre, but there was no one else to point it out since Klaud was still unconscious and Vincent was using all the faith energy he had available to speed up Klaud¡¯s recovery. For what seemed to be like a few minutes, Vincent continued to be seated in concentration and his zanpakuto continued to illuminate the surroundings. Finally, after quite some time had passed, Klaud¡¯s wounds were pretty much healed. The glow of the zanpakuto stopped but the blade did not pull itself out of Klaud¡¯s chest. Vincent: (...too tired to move. This body must have hit its limit. Looks like I''ll have to swap it for now...) Vincent¡¯s body had indeed been used to its limit, and while he could consume Senzu beans to recover, the strain on his body would still be quite harmful, to the point that he''d most likely have to use C-points to heal himself which he considered to be a waste unless absolutely necessary. So, to avoid having to do this, he swapped back to being Mike since Alex and Lenalee should be the only ones left in the other dimension alongside ¡°Road¡±. This means he wouldn''t have to risk Erin and Takeo spilling the beans about who he really was. As for Alex and Lenalee, he was sure they could keep it a secret. Besides, since he was already planning on contracting Klaud, he might as well contract the both of them today as well. After all, he did have plenty of points to spare. 191 lvl 3¡¯s x 500 = 95,500 (3/10 lvl 4¡¯s killed, kill 7 more to get X-ticket) Total: 91,679 C-points While the amount of points might seem like a lot, the truth was that they would be easily spent. As Mike unfortunately found out a long time ago, the prices of certain enhancements would go up the stronger a player became. Although it wouldn''t change that much early on, it would be different in the long run. Not only that, contracting a sentient being was kind of expensive. Sentient Being Contract Origin: N/A Description: The player becomes the complete "god" over the contracted being. Everything except the feelings and personality of the being can be controlled.They cannot die or disappear without the player''s permission. A part of the contracted being''s soul will always be present in the dimension so as to prevent complete destruction. C-points must be spent to revive or enhance the contracted being. Both parties must accept the contract for it to be successful. Cost: 10,000 C-points (A: Ezra already belonged to Mike which was why she only costed 200) That said, since Mike had plenty of points and spending them on contracts didn''t increase the price of enhancements, he didn''t buy anything before initiating the contract with Klaud. The process was a pretty strange experience for Mike. He had heard vague details about what it would be like from Ezra, but experiencing it first hand was quite different than talking about it. Initiating the contract let Mike see into Klaud¡¯s memories so that he could have a better understanding about her. It was pretty vague, only letting him see a rough outline of her life. Finally, after what seemed like years, Mike had learned the bare minumum necessary for the contract to take effect. All that was left was to have Klaud accept. The contract made Klaud barely conscious, so Mike was able to coax her into accepting. He was quite surpised to see that her obsession with him was nearly Ezra level, but there were more pressing concerns so he just shrugged it off. The contract took effect immediately as Klaud¡¯s soul and body became branded with Mike¡¯s name. The process didn''t seem to cause her any pain, which relieved Mike. After making sure that she was stabilized, he fed her a Senzu bean mouth to mouth. Once that was taken care of, he had her sent into the spatial farm where Ezra was waiting after being instructed by Mike to take care of her. Mike: Now¡­ it''s time to get out of here. Hopefully not much time passed. *slash* With a single, well placed slash at an area indicated by his spatial farm to be a possible weak spot, the darkness all around him started to dissipate. The next thing Mike knew, he was now back in Road¡¯s dimension with everyone still in their same position. Lenalee: W-who is that? What happened to Klaud-nee and Vince-niichan!? Alex: Who are you and what happened to them!? Due to fact that almost no time at all had passed since Vincent and Klaud had disappeared into the black mist, Alex and Lenalee were confused on what had happened to them and why they had been replaced by a black-haired, young man. Mike: I''ll explain to you guys later. Just know that Klaud is fine and so am I. For now just sit back and let me handle things from here on out. Alex: You can''t be, Vincent!? Lenalee: Ehhhh! No way! How-!? Mike: Explanations later. Right now, I have to deal with her before reinforcements show up. I don''t know why it''s taking so long for help to arrive, but I don''t want to be here long enough to find out. The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. While Mike was conversing with the 2 girls, he was also busy dodging and slashing apart various weapons created by the black mist. It seemed that even though his appearance had changed, Road still somehow instinctively knew it was still him. Road: Rawrrrrr! Die! Die! Die! Why won''t you die!? Despite her constant yelling, Mike was unfazed and just continued to advance, slashing through the barrage of objects made of the mysterious black mist. If one looked at this scene, they would never have thought that the objects were solid enough to stab straight through Klaud. Once Mike was a certain distance away from Road, he stopped walking and started thinking about his next move. Mike: (Alright, finally close enough. I don''t think I should send my bugs into there. Who knows what might happen to them. Oh! I haven''t had any time to test out any of my self created jutsus... Alright, this one uses about half of my chakra along with some of my soul energy, but it should kill her while completely leaving her body more or less intact. If it doesn''t work, then I''ll just have her enter the spatial farm and hope it''s at a high enough level that she can be controlled by it. Hmm... I should also use this chance to test out my new binding ability. Though the original Noah wasn''t able to move, according to the system, I should be able to since I''m technically not a full fledged Noah...) The reason Vincent didn''t want to send in Road into his spatial farm was because he didn''t know what might happen if he does. If he couldn''t get Road under his control, then even if he sent her outside his spatial farm, she might somehow be able to go back in it and wreak havoc. He didn''t want to risk it unless he had no other options left. Vincent: Alright, take this! Unique Jutsu, Thousand Souls Lightning Storm! Thousand Souls Lightning Storm Origin: Self-made Description: A Jutsu that needs both soul energy and chakra to be performed. By mixing soul energy into lightning chakra, it is possible to gain better control over the chakra and create a lightning storm where the lightning is reinforced with soul energy, allowing the Jutsu to harm anything paranormal. Depending on the soul energy to chakra ratio, the damage dealt can even only affect the soul/mind of the target(s), completely ignoring the physical realm. After training for so long, Mike was able to successfully combine chakra and soul energy. He still wasn''t able to combine faith energy and chakra, but now that his Zanpakuto also contained faith energy, it was now possible for him to do so in the future. But even so, chakra and soul energy probably wouldn''t be any less powerful than soul energy and faith energy. At least, according to what Ezra told him about his new jutsu. He hadn''t had a lot of chances to test out his attack on any living targets yet, so everything he knew about his new jutsu was told to him by the spatial farm system and Ezra. After shouting out the name of the jutsu (for dramatic effect of course) and making the appropriate hand signs, a dark cloud started to appear above Road¡¯s body. It wasn''t as dark and terrifying as Road¡¯s black mist, but it still gave off a large sense of foreboding¡­ Lightning was visibly forming within the cloud, and as the cloud grew, so did the lightning¡¯s aggression. Stray bolts would occasionally shoot out around Road as if to keep her in place. In the span of not even 10 seconds, the cloud was fully grown, and the lightning fully matured. Road ignored the cloud and lightning. It had done nothing to harm her. Besides, even if it did, she would still relentlessly pursue Mike. After all, she was almost all instincts and no conscious at this point. And when the lightning did finally start to hit her, she really started to go berserk; however, as she soon realized, she couldn''t move at all. Even though the intense pain she was going through made her consider wanting to give up on her revenge, the binding chains of Mike''s new ability wouldn''t let her escape. Therewould be no escaping Mike¡¯s new jutsu. Road tried using her black mist to counteract the cloud and lightning above her, but it was no use. The lightning would instantly dissipate whatever she threw at it, turning it back into black mist that eventually dissipated into nothingness. Of course, there was no way this was the full extent of the jutsu''s might. With each new bolt of lightning, the lightning seemingly became larger, faster, and brighter, as if it''s quality was increasing over time. Road didn''t pay much attention to this, so she was caught off guard when the lightning finally struck her and made her go through the most agony she had ever felt in her entire life. After all, this was an attack that attacked her very soul, completely ignoring her body. The lightning continued to strike down on her, making sure that her soul was injured to the point that she was practically brain dead. After about a minute, the thunderstorm started to disappear and the lightning stopped striking poor Road. Even though there was no noticeable damage to her, anyone could tell that there was something wrong with her by the way her eyes no longer shone with a deep red and we''re now just a dull black as if she had lost her will to live. Mike confirmed that she no longer had any mental/spiritual barriers up any more through his spatial farm, so he deemed it safe to transport her into it. After all, he would appreciate a powerful helper and he would still get her powers, so their was absolutely no loss in doing so. Once she went into it, Vincent heard the system give him a bunch of notifications.
System: Due to finding a live specimen of species: Noah, you are now able to control Akuma that are not yours and Akuma will not be able to harm you unless they are unaware that they will die if they do so.
System: You have gained Noah Road¡¯s special ability. The specimen is a Noah that has certain control over dimensions. You no longer have to pay C-points to expand land, and your control of the spatial farm has improved. You are still required to pay for certain upgrades as per rules set by CE.
System: Noah Road has submitted to your will. Due to possible chance of spirit still residing in the body resisting upon regaining its strength, it is suggested that the spirit be removed from the dimension. Y/N?
System: You can now detect the location of other Noah, but you will also be trackable when you use this ability.
Mike could feel the power rushing into his body. Though his stats were already well above most Noah, it didn''t get rid of the fact that he was getting stronger, even if it was just a little bit. After hearing the last notification, Mike had no hesitation in authorizing the spatial farm to get rid of Road¡¯s soul. He did not want her to backstab him someday. After confirmation from the spatial farm, Mike visibly relaxed and put the matter of Road to the back of his mind. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have nothing to worry about for a while. After Mike made Road¡¯s powers his own, he felt a connection between him and the black mist that the dimension was created from. Mike: ¡­ Looks like it''s mine now. Sucks that CE still put restrictions on the spatial farm. Guess the GM still can''t outrank the creator... Oh, right, I still have to explain things to you guys. Come on, let''s get out of here. Don''t worry, I''ll let you guys confirm that Klaud is safe later. First we have to get out of here. Though Lenalee and Alex were still a bit confused on what the heck just happened, they still decided to follow Mike''s advice and save the questions for later. They weren''t 100% sure that he was Vincent, but their female instincts told them otherwise. Once Mike made sure they were compliant, he dissolved the dimension and the next thing they new they were back in the forest. Takeo: Oy, I found them- Wait, who''s that guy!? And where is Vincent and Klaud!? Takeo was right in front of them when they appeared, and it seemed that he was weary from searching for them. When he saw Lenalee and Alex, he called over Erin and Lau, but then he became alert when his eyes landed on Mike. Mike: (Welp, there goes my incognito plan... Let''s still keep my reAL identity a secret.) Relax, it''s me, Vincent. I sort of got this form when I used the new innocence I bonded with. Takeo: How can I be sure- Mike: Do you need another "talk"? I''ll have you serve your brother''s share since he won''t be there. Takeo: *gulp* I''m starting to wonder if my brother was the lucky one... Though Takeo had seemed like he had forgotten the death of his brother, this was far from the truth. He was focusing on trying to ignore his feelings so that they wouldn''t get in the way of the mission. The truth was that he was still having a hard time believing that his brother had truly died. That''s why Mike tried to use a light joke to ease up Takeo. Unfortunately, it just made him feel that he was the unlucky one still stuck with Mike. Once Lau and Erin and arrived, Takeo filled them in on what had transpired. Well, Lau was too busy communicating with Mike to care about any of that. His instincts told him that Mike was Vincent, so he asked him what had happened to Klaud. That''s right, Lau "asked" Mike, which means Mike could understand Lau. Mike disn''t question the matter that much and just used the fact that he now had an innocence bonded to his spirit as a valid reason. If anything, he was more surprised that Lau was by far the most mature person he had ever come across. Mike: (Holy Sh*t. I never thought Lau would be this civilized. No wonder Klaud never complained about him being a useless male, even I feel like I''m lacking in comparison to him...) After telling Lau what had happened to Klaud, Lau calmed down and just sat down on Mike''s shoulder. Not wanting to waste anymore time, Mike created a portal to the town near the Japanese HQ to get them all back as quick as possible. Erin: ...Is this also the power of your new innocence? Mike: Yup. Erin: You ******** cheat bastard. Mike: Mm? Erin: Nothing. Mike: Looks like that talk is necessary after all. Takeo: No, Erin, you''ve doomed us!? Alex/Lenalee: ???
POV SHIFT ?: (So... it seem''s like that mysterious man somehow gained Road''s abilities. Tch! He''s somehow getting even more dangerous... That''s it, he has to die... I better go back, I need to tell the Earl that he''s way too much of a danger. If what Asura said is true, then he was already strong enough to be a threat before this incident. Now, it looks like we''ve just given him a greater opportunity to grow stronger. ) In a part of the forest very close to where Mike and his party were was a black cat that was seemingly pondering something frustrating. It eventually came to a conclusion and ran back towards where there was a certain strange structure floating. When the cat came into contact with it, they both disappeared and the forest was quiet once more... Chapter 29 RW Chapter 29 Kai: So¡­ what you''re telling me is that he was actually Vincent? Takeo, what the heck happened on that mission? Takeo: Yeah, the girls confirmed it themselves. Right now they should, be visiting Klaud in whatever place Vincent has her stored in. They said they''d be back tomorrow morning. Kai: Alright, but like I asked, what the heck happened on that mission? Takeo: Well you see¡­ blah¡­ blah¡­ blah¡­he''s a total badass... blah... and that''s what happened. Kai: ...I''m sorry for your loss. He was a fine exorcist, that brother of yours. A little worldly, but still a good person nonetheless. Let his soul rest in peace. Takeo: ...Thank you. Don''t worry though, we were both prepared when we trained to become exorcists. I''ll be sure to finish what we started. Kai: *sigh* Well it''s good you''re not too down in the dumps about it. Alright, go get some sleep, you deserve it. Takeo: Goodnight, sir. POV shift Ezra: So, you finally decided to let me meet the others, huh? Nice to meet you, my name¡¯s Ezra, thank you for taking such good care of my husband. Alex/Lenalee/Klaud: Ho~*glare* Vincent: (Why does she have to act so understanding when it''s just us and then so Yandere whenever she feels threatened¡­ Pick a character already woman!!!) *cough* So, I''ve brought you guys in here to show you that Klaud¡¯s alright, just like I promised you. And I even showed you that I am really Vincent by turning back to my normal form. Alex: Alright, but I think we''d all like to know who your friend right here is. Klaud: I¡¯d actually like a more in-depth explanation on what is happening since I was unconscious for a while. Vincent: *sigh* Alright, fair enough. I''ll explain everything. And so, Vincent was made to undergo his most challenging task yet. Explaining his situation to his 3 potential harem members in a way that wouldn''t freak them out and/or make them pissed at him. Needless to say, he failed pretty badly. Also, Ezra and her constant commentary didn''t help much either. In fact, she was what they were most pissed off about. Though the 3 females had, miraculously, come to an understanding with one another, that only applied to the 3 of them. They hadn''t yet thought about what if Vincent made other females fall for him. To prevent that from happening, they had made sure to chase off any female that had dared to come close to him. But now? Now, they had been shown that all their efforts were for naught since Vincent had already had someone way before he met them. They hadnt done anything to him yet, but their alightly homicidal gazes made Vincent shudder. The current situation was pretty undesirable for Vincent. The only consolation was that Alex was the only one feeling a little bit strange to be crushing on an older male. This was moat likely because Klaud had a crazy obsession with Vincent while Lenalee was still too young to understand such matters. Alex was pretty much the only normal heroine out of the group. The weird thing was that they didn''t really react much to Vincent telling them that their world was based on fiction. They only seemed a bit puzzled but didn''t really pay much attention to the topic. In fact, as far as Vincent could tell, Lau was the only one who was interested in the matter. Vincent: *cough* So, I''ll just let you guys digest what you''ve been told. I''ll just be over there getting some new stuff to better our chances in the fight against the Earl and the No- Alex: You''re not getting away that easily. Lenalee: Vince-niichan, I want cool powers too! Help me get stronger! Klaud: ...Actually, I''ve been wanting to ask you for a little while, but I¡¯ve been feeling a bit strange, like I can sense something off about me¡­ Vincent: ? Spatial farm, please scan her. System: Scanning in process: 1% 2% 3%...100% Scan complete. Vincent: Is there anything foreign in her besides faith energy? Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. System: Scan results show that ¡°soul energy¡± is present in humanoid Klaud¡¯s body. Vincent: ...Oops. Klaud: Oops? Vincent: I didn''t think It¡¯d affect you when I did that¡­ Maybe I accidentally let some of it go into your body alongside the faith energy¡­ Klaud: So what exactly is inside of me? Vincent: It''s one of the energies I mentioned to you guys, soul energy. It''s what makes up the sword I use. It also let''s me do things like see souls. Klaud: So I''m going to be seeing souls from now on? Vincent: You shouldn''t see them all the time, only when you learn to activate your soul energy and wield it. Oh well, since you''ve already got access to soul energy, might as well get you the weapon to go with it. Vincent then proceeded to buy Klaud the C-tier shinigami mutation for 4500 points (Klaud having soul energy lowered the cost) so she could start training in the ways of a shinigami. He planned to later teach her how to go into her inner world, but he decided to save that for later on. Lenalee: Vince-niichan, can you I use soul energy too? Vincent: I would give you it if there weren''t any repercussions in doing so. It turns out that giving Klaud access to it without paying points made it so that I permanently lost some soul energy. I just thought I hadn''t recovered yet, but if I gave some of it up to give soul energy to Klaud, then I guess it makes sense. I can still buy it for you, but you should get something else, don''t you think? Lenalee: Okay, then what do you think I should get? Vincent: Well, I think you should just work with what you have so far. I can have the system tweak your innocence a little so that you''ll have a better resonance with it. I''ll explain more of the details to you later. Lenalee: Alright, I trust you Vince-niichan. (Yes, I''m finally gonna be strong enough to protect everyone.) *giggle* Alex: And what about me. Should I do the same? Vincent: Well, you''re already pretty well connected to your innocence. I believe getting you something else would be for the best. Oh! But before that, let''s get you guys contracted. That is, if you guys want to. Alex: You mean the one you did with Klaud? Sure, I''m fine with it. Lenalee: Yay! So with it, I get to stay with Vince-niichan forever? Vincent: Yup, though I''ll have to keep going to other places, you''ll still see me almost every single day, maybe 24/7 if I get something... Anyway, let''s not waste anymore time. (Was that really the entire conversation I had been stressing about for months...) After spending another 20,000 points on contracting Alex and Lenalee, Vincent had 57,179 points left.
Vincent: Alright Alex, you already have plenty of firepower, so what exactly do you want? Alex: Hmm...oh yeah, what exactly can she do? After being in deep thought for a little while, Alex finally asked a question while pointing at Ezra who was busy harvesting the Senzu beans and other crops. Vincent: Oh, I got her magic that let''s her summon equipment. Alex: So she''s a knight¡­ Okay, then I want magic too. You said I''m already strong enough physically, so why not giving me magic? Vincent: Magician? I guess there are certain types. What exactly do you want when you say that? Alex: Hmm¡­ I''ve seen you control metal, plants, and lightning, so what else can you do? Vincent: Elemental-wise, I can control metal, earth, water, fire, wind, lightning, ice, wood, magma, mud, and any other combinations between those elements pretty much except I have limited strength when it comes to them. Alex: Hmm¡­ can you give me something to do with the mind? Like reading the future or something? That way I could always be prepared for what''s going to happen when I''m fighting, So I''ll have time to prepare. Vincent: Hmm¡­ Oh, I know just the thing. Foresight Eyes Origin: Mushoku Tensei Description: One of the 12 demonic eyes, it allows the user to peer into the possible futures. It is difficult to control, but is good for predicting the near future. Only goes into one eye to allow for better stability with the present vision. Cost: 7,000 C-points After buying it, swirls of darkness appeared next to Alex and they flew into her right eye. When the last of it went inside, Alex clutched the side of her head and complained about it being really itchy. Vincent just patted her on the head the whole time since he couldn''t really do anything about the itch. After about a minute, Alex removed her hand and opened her right eye. It no longer had her purplish-blue colored pupils, it was now green with swirls appearing in it. Alex: Wow¡­ this is pretty disorienting. This''ll take some getting used to¡­ Vincent: Alright, you can test it out against Klaud and the others later on, but for now, I think we should go and get some rest. *yawn* This body still isn''t fully healed and I''m mentally exhausted.
Lenalee: Hey, Vince-niichan, why aren''t Ezra-nee and Klaud-nee sleeping with us tonight? Vincent: Oh, they¡¯re busy testing out their new moves. They said they wanted to spar against each other. Alex: Aren''t they tired? Vincent: Don''t worry, I have shadow clones helping them out and ready to act if anything happens¡­(I am so glad I got that enhancement...) Dual Body Control Origin: N/A(There are plenty of sources with this ability) Description: Allows for the user to control 2 bodies at the same time. Can be further upgraded.(Processing helps with coordination between the bodies.) Cost: 11,000 Somewhere Else In the Spatial Farm¡­ ¡°More! Do it more!¡± ¡°Why are you so focused on her!! HYAH!!!! B-be more gentle...¡± Mike was having quite the party. Now that he could show Klaud his adult form, he didn''t have to worry about holding back his lust for her. He was a bit worried that Klaud might be against, but it seems that as long as she knew he was Vincent, she was fine with him. Also, it seemed that Vincent might have trained with her a little too much... Regardless, Vincent was still extremely happy to oblige. Vincent had read stores about ancient beings getting sick of doing the deed, but to that he would say bullsh*t. He was 100% confident his sexuality drive would always be as insatiable as it was now... And so, the 20 something Virgin Klaud finally lost her title to our protagonist. It was your stereotypical ¡°happy ending¡±, except the story wasn''t over just yet and there was another woman there enjoying herself as well. It was still a pretty "happy" time though... POV shift¡­ ?: Sir, our troops are ready and gathered. We can begin the invasion at any time. ??: Soon, don''t be so impatient. Our time to shine will soon be here. We don''t want to lose any more family, right? ?: Yes sire, I will make sure this operation is carried out as smooth as possible¡­ ??: Hahaha, then I''ll leave it to you. I''ll be expecting extremely positive results. Also, try not to be so uptight all the time. ?: ...I''ll try, but this is my personality we''re talking about. In a city full of white colored buildings were a grey-skinned female and a fat man with an extremely demonic smile on his face. The words they exchanged may have sounded a bit cryptic, but nonetheless, one would have felt a sense of foreboding if they heard it. The time for the story''s climax was slowly drawing near as the the countdown between the final battle continued to tick... (Poll)Still writing, but also starting to do the rewrite. So, I''ve started going back to the earlier chapters to try and start cleaning them up. Obviously they aren''t finished yet, but I''m working on it. You guys might notice some of the chapters being moved around and being changed. Don''t worry, I''ll tell you guys when I finish, most likely by the end of next week. So, if you guys could please answer the poll and leave feedback in the comments so I can see if you guys are fine with the changes. I do plan for the story to end up where we are right now, but I will change a little bit of the journey. For example, how Vincent/Mike gets the heroines. Alright, now back to work.If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. Chapter 30 RW Chapter 30 It''s been 1 year since the battle in the forest happened, and over this past year, Vincent, Klaud, Alex and Lenalee increased their strength at a rate far faster than ever before. Of course, it was all because of Vincent that they could increase in strength this quickly, but only they knew that. As per Vincent¡¯s wishes, no one besides Klaud, Alex and Lenalee were to know of who he really was. The one who showed the most improvement in the group was Lenalee, since she had always been the weakest member of the group, what with her limited resonance with her innocence. To solve this, Vincent had bought her an enhancement related to her innocence. It would also significantly enhance her specs while also making her trademark dark boots into a crystal type innocence. After getting it, her dark boots suddenly became covered in her blood as they transformed into the form that was shown later on in the show. Crystal Type Innocence (A-tier) Origin: D.grayman Description: Boosts amount of faith energy while also increasing the enhancers stats. Transforms innocence into a part of the user by merging with their blood. Cost: 10,000 Now Vincent was only left with 29,179 C-points left to spend. The before and after was drastic enough to nearly drive him to tears¡­ however, he was still glad to have gotten the things that he considered to be of utmost importance out of the way. He wouldn''t have to worry about anything happening to Klaud and the others in case he failed his mission, so that was a huge load off his chest. So, with his remaining points he decided to get some things for him and maybe to give Ezra a little boost. He also made sure to buy more Senzu Bean stalks since he could expand without having to spend any points, though he was still salty about the fact that he couldn''t expand indefinitely yet since the spatial farms overall level still wouldn''t allow him to. He could change the way the space looked and make pocket dimensions with his new Noah ability; though, he still wasn''t allowed to plant crops he bought directly from the system in them. Not only that, the spaces he created could not yet be created with life nor have any special properties. Actually, to counteract this, Vincent had been considering buying the Gamer Enhancement since it was by far the best enhancement he knew of for training skills, but such a cheat level enhancement was still ways ahead from what he could afford. Gamer Enhancement Origin: The Gamer Description: Transforms the system for 1 of the host''s body to be that of a video game character. Different stats, inventory, and fast level/skill grinding are the main points of this enhancement. The enhancement comes with the togglable ¡°on¡± or ¡°off¡± passive skills Gamer¡¯s Mind and Gamer¡¯s Body. *Recommended that the enhancement be used on a new body since the effects will be more efficient. Also, partying cannot be done with other bodies that have not had their systems converted. Cost: 500,000 C-points and 5 X-ticket Yup, even looking at how in the future the Akuma would be at a higher level and in larger quantities, making this sum would be quite the challenge. Still, Vincent knew once he got this skill, the body he used it on would probably be his bread and butter for the next few worlds considering that he would have any easy time powering it up. Though he did wish the enhancement would travel between bodies, he would still be happy to be able to train so quickly. As for the others:Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation. Alex had been able to master her new eye to the point where she could see about 3 seconds accurately into the future, which was more than enough to protect her from most dangers. Since her floating shield could block most attacks, she would have plenty of time to move it to protect her. Although her stats still lost to Vincent, she was still able to match Klaud and Lau in a fight, which was still a pretty good achievement. As for how her brother reacted to her new eye, he had not yet gotten the chance to see her since they were still in Japan. Each day she would get a mountain of letters from him that would ask her constantly about her well-being... Klaud also started mastering her new Zanpakuto. Although she had yet to learn its name (Mike was very lucky to learn Ana¡¯s so early on), she was getting pretty good at wielding it despite the fact that her preferred weapon was either her fists or a whip. Though Vincent speculated that her Zanpakuto would transform in the near future to fit one of those two fighting styles, nothing was certain since it was not his Zanpakuto. As for the soul energy Vincent had lost, he had already regained it during this past year. For Ezra, Vincent simply bought her some more armor from the system. They only cost about 10,000 in total, so he still had enough to get himself something nice. Nanites (B-tier) Origin: Generator Rex Description: Allows for the body to transform into different mechanical weapons/tools. Also allows for some boost in stats. *Only allows access to certain weapons Cost: 15,000 C-points It originally only costed 7000 C-points, but after spending so many points the price more than doubled. This made Vincent want to save his remaining points, but he knew it was better to get stronger in the present to deal with the near future than to die trying to prepare for another life-time (literally). Vincent also had another region in his spatial farm added for his akuma to reside in. He named it the "Graveyard of the Fallen" and also had Road reside there as well. After having her soul completely wiped away, Road was now a completely different person. Though she still carried a bit of childish retained from her previous self, there was no doubt that she was someone completely different. For one thing, she showed no gostility towards Klaud and the others and she even tried to frequently get them to play with her. Though, Klaud and the others still tried their best to avoid being around her... Still, the number 1 most important event to have occurred during this past year had to have been Vincent finally gaining Ana''s recoginition. He had long since been able to fight her 1v1 and capable of summoning her into the real world, but he wanted to make sure he was absolutely prepared to defeat her before attempting to fight her in the real world. Flashback On a battlefield constructed from one of Mike¡¯s pocket dimensions, the group was gathered, waiting for Mike to fight against Ana. Needless to say, the result of this battle would decide whether or not they would have one more trump card against the forces of the Millenium Earl. After all, Vincent already had confirmation from CE that he would be helping the other side... Alex: Are you really sure you''ll be alright? Mike: For the last time, yes. I''ve been preparing this entire time, so it won''t make a difference if I challenge her now or in the future. Lenalee: Vincent, be careful. Mike: (I kinda wish she hadn''t stopped calling me her nii-chan) Klaud: Alright, hurry up and get this over with. I expect you to win unless you''ve been slacking off all this time. Mike: (Says the woman who doesn''t let me sleep every other night... Only in an anime world does this happen.) *sigh* Ana: (C''mon Mike, hurry up and summon me. Remember what happens if you win?) Mike: ...Will my vitality be enough? Alex: Did you say something? Mike: Nothing. (At least Alex and Lenalee haven''t shown signs of being like Klaud or Ezra yet...) Alright, let''s get this over with. With that, Mike impaled his Zanpakuto into the ground in front of him. From the hilt glowed the bright, golden colored innocence which was bound to Ana. As the glow intensified, the roots ingrained into the blade started to become real as they started to impale themselved into the ground. In a matter of seconds, a golden, mettalic tree was now in the place where Mike¡¯s Zanpakuto had once been. It glistened in the plain field as if it was the only thing that existed in Mike¡¯s dimension, as if the space was created just for it. The girls were mesmerized while Mike had a solemn face on. The flashy entrance had reminded him of something that had slipped his mind. His Zanpakuto wasn''t the average bleach universe version, it also had properties of the D.grayman world. That meant that even though he himself had strengths outside being a shinigami, she was the same. The way this battle would go was completely unpredictable since even Mike had no idea what Ana''s true power was. Ana: Is that the kind of look a man should make when greetng his significant other? Mike: Well, it''s the kind of face I make when I''m about to face a powerful adversary, does that please you? Ana: Well, I guess it''s true that until this battle is over we''re nothing more than enemies. So, hurry up and finish this! Right after saying so, the golden tree no longer spoke as golden roots came out of the ground and aimed at Mike. The girls at the sidelines saw nothing but a golden blur as they whisked towards the lone black-haired man. Ana would be pulling no punches in this fight. As per necessity, Mike had to defeat her at her full power if he was to be worthy of wielding her. There was no other way around it.

So, if you could be so kind as to go read my new story, enjoy it , andhelp me earn $50 from my bet against A by following itshow your appreciation, I will be thankful. Was binging As you can probably already tell from the title, the reason I was gone for so long was because I was catching up on some novels that I had forgotten about. I know I said that I would be posting another chapter a week ago, but then someone pm''ed me about a certain story to give me an idea on how to better develop ReRo. I was planning on reading that story after I finished the next chapter or ReRo, but then someone in the comment section posted a comment about the same story which made me think that I had to check it out. Seriously, it was almost within the same day. And from then on, I got pulled into that story for about a week where I completely forgot about Royalroad. That''s right, not 2 weeks, but 1 week. The 2nd week was because I completely lost confidence in my skills as an author after reading the story once I saw how well thought out and developed it was compared to mine. It completely depribed me of my motivation to finish the next chapter of ReRo even though I was almost done with it. I just kept thinking about how I wanted to change the entire story with the new ideas swimming in my head. And so, I took the 2nd week off as well to cool my head and deal with this unexpected dilemma. I honestly never considered that this would happen to me. But don''t worry, my head is finally clear, now all I have to do i''s go back to finish typing that chapter (I''m probably going to have to reread the last few chapters of ReRo). So yeah, you will at least get 1 chapter this week and 1 chapter of B''s story. Remember to put any suggestions in the comments for what you guys want to see, and yes, I here you guys wanting that sexy juutsu to happen. Can''t believe you guys will make me write about it. Don''t worry, I''ve done a lot of research so it should be good stuffStolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
