002 Administrator and Character Creation [edited]
Absolute darkness.
That's all I have been able to see for what feels like an eternity. At least that's how long I imagine it's been. I can't really tell in this place. None of my senses seem to be working. All I see is the darkness, I can't feel, I can't talk, and I can't hear anything.
I'm surprised and how calm I am acting at the moment. Usually, I would have been freaking out at the one-minute mark. I mean, who wouldn't. But, instead, it seems that whatever state I'm in is blocking or muting my emotions.
My confusion continues to grow as I continue to wait and see if anything will happen, if anything will change. Finally, after an unknown amount of time, something does change. A blue screen appears before me with words written in silver.
[Welcome! Congratulations on joining Gamer Inc. I am the Administrator, and I will help you set up your account today and tell you all about your own custom Gamer System!]
I don't know whether to celebrate or cry at that news.
[let us start with your character creation. Oh, it seems your sponsor has chosen your first world, Highschool DXD. Your one lucky man, The women there are some absolute best in the multiverse. DXD will also give you an excellent platform to grow.]
Yeah, they are gorgeous, but it's an insanely dangerous world with many crazy people that will just kill me because they can. I think to myself, surprisingly still calm. I usually would have raged at this being my first world. He or this place I'm in has definitely done something to my mind. Maybe I have the skill, Gamers Mind?
[It seems your race, name, time, and place of insert have all been selected for you already.]
Well, that's a bummer. One of the best parts of any RPG is picking who you want to be and what you want to be, But it looks like I don't even have hands or mouth to choose for myself.
[Wow, your sponsor really went all out for you.]
Can't say that doesn't sound promising.
[Let us see here. Your race has been set to high-class Pureblood Devil.]
Excellent, good choice. I wouldn't want to be a squishy human or a servant to someone else and defiantly wouldn't want to be an angel. I would have fallen in seconds with Gabrial around.
[As a high-class pureblood devil, you are part of a noble family. The Phenex family was selected for you, but ill get into that a bit later. Like I said, your sponsor went all out.]
Damn! One of my top two picks. If it was me choosing, it would have been between the Phenex or the Beals.
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
[Your name will be Rical Phenex, fourth son of Lord and Lady phenex right between Riser Phenex and Ravel Phenex. Your starting age will be 16, and you will be inserted a little over 2 years before canon.]
Okay. I can work with that. I'll be the same age as Rias and Sona. Hopefully, two years will be long enough to train and get strong enough to survive canon.
[ Well, let me accept all the presets. So that we can get you in your new body, then we can have a chat. I can tell you all you need to know about your system, and you can ask all the questions you want.]
Cool, Hopefully, he will answer my questions. Not just tell me something stupid like my authority is not high enough to know the answer.
[There we go, you should have a new body any second now.]
In the darkness, a stunning young man starts to shimmer into existence with golden locks and eyes so blue that you would think you are looking into the very depths of the Mediterranian sea.
Gulping in a mouthful air like it's the first breath I have ever taken. Well, I guess for this body, it is the first breath I have ever taken. And then immediately after coughing all the air out again.
[You alright there, kid.]
"Yeah," I say for the first time with this body hearing a voice that would make any women swoon.
[It happens to everyone when they get put into a new body. Well, anyway, do you have any questions for me before we get into your system and how it works?]
"Yeah. I have a few." I say through haggard breaths. "If I have a Gamer system, then can I assume that the reason I am so calm is due to the skill Gamers Mind?"
[ No. You do not have the skill, Gamers Mind. You are so calm because you have been implanted with the mental suggestion to be okay with your death, your current situation, and stay calm.
But that's only since you got your body when you were just a soal you could not feel all your emotions because you did not have a brain with all the chemicals the brain uses for emotions]
"And I'm guessing that me being okay with you doing that is also your doing, Mr. Administrator?" I ask while glaring at the screen with my eyes. Knowing I would not have been happy with this before.
[ Yes.]
"And that I can't remember anything about my death, my name, the faces and names of my loved ones?"
[ Yes. That was my doing as well. Remembering your death would have scarred you in your next life, And to move on in the next life, your old name would not have been necessary, neither would your memories of your loved ones. They would have been detrimental to having a full life. So the memories were removed. Trust me, this was the best option for you.]
"Okay, ill just move on from this," I say. Not like I really Had an option."If I have a new body and a new brain, will it make me think any differently from before my death?"
[A good question, And the answer is yes, but not because you have a new brain, but because of Rical memories and as well as being a devil. You will acquire sins that will change you slightly to match them. Being older will help you control yourself more than a devil that received their sins young.]
"Why will I get Ricals sins? Is it because of his memories?" I ask, not really wanting the trouble they will surely bring me.
[Yes, having all Ricals memories and experiences will change your outlook on life, and this will provide you with some of his personality traits. But you don't have to be too worried because your original personality will still be in control. ]
"Okay, Final question for now." I say." You said, and I quote, " All the perks that come with it and more." So I assume that means I have the Hell Flames, Wind manipulation, and Rebirth from the Phenex clan bloodline, but what did you mean by and more?"
[ Well, I was going to show you your Status later when I explained the Gamer System, but I guess I'll tell you about some of it now. Say Status with the intention of seeing your Status to bring it up.]
"Status," I say while imagining a status screen like in The Gamer Manwha.
Before me appears another screen very similar in design to the chatbox with the Administrator, being Bright blue with silver writing and borders.
