Gabriel Revaldi is a simple man that tries to have a simple life. Gabriel is currently walking toward his apartment, where he lives. His apartment is located not too far away from the market in his city. Gabriel lived in a city called Jakarta in a country named Indonesia. Gabriel looks at his phone and sees that the time is currently at 6 PM, so he should be able to arrive in his apartment around 6.10 PM.
Gabriel is an orphan as his parents died a few years ago because of a car accident. He is devastated because that accident was not only the accident that took his parents' life away but also his brother and sister. After that accident, Gabriel stayed with his grandparents, who owned a little food stall near the market.
Gabriel lost his parents when he was 15 years old, and currently, he is 22 years old. For those seven years, Gabriel spent his time helping his Grandparents opening the food stall and doing the dishes while his Grandparents did the cooking and serving. When Gabriel finished his study in college, he was forced to move out of his Grandparent house because of the new job he got after he finished his study.
Gabriel only went for five months, but he already missed his Grandparents, he missed his Grandpa cooking and his Grandma special hot chocolate. Thinking about it, Gabriel can't be helped but to drool a little.
Without even knowing, Gabriel already arrived at his apartment. As he gets inside his room, he then takes off his uniform and changes to his casual clothes and then sits down on the chair near his computer.
As he turns on the computer and goes to his email, Gabriel sees that many spams and some unique emails inside his inbox. As he opens the email, he is surprised as inside the email is a WORM CYOA version 3 revised.
Gabriel knows what CYOA is, and of course, he also knows the Worm CYOA as he is a fan of CYOA fic. He read them on SB and SV, where many authors try their chance to write a Worm CYOA fic. I clicked the link, and it sent me toward something like a browser game.
"Two beings spiral through the starry void… Yada Yada… The cycle is broken… It will destroy countless earth… Yada Yada… And that is the end… Let see"
Gabriel click the Difficulty button and see there are three options. The first one is God Mode, where he can get 10 points. The second option is Standard mode, where he gets 5 points. The last one is Skitter mode, where he doesn't get any points to spend and need to pick a disadvantage to gain a point.
In God mode, He could pick all the power, including World Breaker power, Greater Power, and Lesser Power. Standard only gives him Greater Power and Lesser Power, while Skitter mode only lets him use the Lesser Power, which sucks.
Without thinking twice, Gabriel picks God Mode and get 10 points for his own choices.
After clicking the next button, he arrives at the power panel, where there are three types of power it provides. He clicks the lesser power and sees the list of the power it gives. The apprentice is the power that Gabriel needs to work to get more powerful. The list of power apprentice has is; Arcane Magic (DnD), Aura (RWBY), Bending (Avatar), Biotic (Mass Effect), Dresden files magic, Divine Magic (DnD), Libriomancy (Libriomancer), Force (Star Wars), Gnosis (Mage: The awakening magic), Ninja Magic (Naruto), Psionics (DnD), Thaumaturgy (Nasu), Wand Magic (Harry Potter), Warlock Magic (DnD), Weaboo Fightan Magic (DnD, Book of Nine Swords).
The apprentice cost him 2 points, and he can spend one point to have the knowledge of the power that he chooses. Gabriel can also pick another power that is provided by spending another one point.
The next power is Twins. With twins, he can choose any parahuman in the worm universe and have the same power. Gabriel can also use one point to do a Jailbreak the power and modify the ability to be more powerful or versatile. Sadly after he Jailbreaks the power, it will not grow any stronger.
The next power is Wildcard, where he gets random power from the power Generator website. As for the potency of the power, he needs to roll a dice of 1d8 and add 2. The number of powers is classified from 1 to 15+.
Number 1 only has a threat slightly above normal humans.
Number 2 has a threat of an athletic human or at least a well-equipped human.
Number 3 needs several trained individuals who may be required to deal with the situation.
Number 4 needs One full squad of trained operatives should be able to deal with this situation.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Number 5 A typical parahuman or one parahuman assisting a squad of operatives should be able to deal with the power in question.
Number 6 A typically trained parahuman or one parahuman assisting a squad of operatives should be able to deal with the power in question.
Number 7, Parahumans should engage in pairs or trios at a minimum, two fully equipped squads should be deployed.
Number 8, Evacuation of civilians should take priority for all squad members. Engaging should be avoided outside of specific missions and tasks. Parahumans should engage only when supported by their team to ensure a minimum of complications or danger.
Number 9, Parahumans, and PRT should evacuate where possible, and should only engage when a specific mission and strategy has been outlined. Major countermeasures should take effect.
Number 10+, In the event of a serious confrontation, additional teams or specific high-rated individuals should be called in to manage the crisis.
Number 15+, Planet level-threat, and Functional loss of humanity in the host.
While Wildcard can get him some World Breaking power, it stops him from reaching its full potential. For example, if he gains control over Gap, and rolls eight then adds two, he only gets ten as it was the maximum number of the dice while the original power of Gap can be a threat of 15+, a planet level threat.
Gabriel wasn't interested in the lesser power, so he skipped it and clicked the Greater power. In the greater power section, he sees Crossover power where he could pick any power from the published comic book character and gain its powerset. Of course, he only gets the weakened powerset, but it will gradually become more powerful in time, but sadly it will take decades or more to regain the more powerful character. The power that depends on force also can't be used, for example, the Speed force and Power Cosmic.
Next is exalted, Exalted will make him… well exalted above all others, but sadly this power is the same as Crossover, where he needs to wait more than a decade to be an all-powerful being.
Next is Gamer, Gamer power as well... The power that makes his life into a game where he can level up and do some sh*t that game character can do inside the game.
Next is Mad Talent, where he will gain a power that makes him so talented that reality says nope. If he wants to be a thief, then this power will give him the talent to steal even a moon from the sky.
Next is servant, where he can get a powerset and memory of a servant from nasuverse, but sadly if he wants Gilgamesh and Karna Gabriel need to pay extra because of their bullsh*t powerset.
The last is Power of Word, where he can use any word as a weapon; for example, he can use FUS RO DAH like in the Skyrim.
All Greater power cost him 4 points while Gilgamesh and Karna will cost him another 2 points if he decided to choose them.
Now into the most fun Power, the World Breaking Power. The World Breaking Power has nine powers that he can choose. The first power is Alexandria, the power that makes him Superman on steroids. Not only does this power make him invulnerable to any damage. It also makes him the smartest person on earth.
The next power is Legend, which makes him the Lord of Laser. With this power, he can fire a laser toward his enemy. He is also able to choose the property and effect as much as he wants. He can fire a laser that has the property of poison but has an effect of freezing at the same time.
The next power is Eidolon. Eidolon will make him the most versatile parahuman ever on the earth. This power will let him create another power and use 5 of them at the same time. This power is also continuously active and helps the user for everyday life. For example, if he is lost on the road, Eidolon will give him the power that makes him a living Google Map. If there is an ambush attack? Don't worry. This power will make him immune to any damage for a short amount of time. Sadly this power can't make a permanent power, so every power that Eidolon creates for him will not stay permanently.
The next power is the Emperor of Man. It will give him the power of the Emperor from the 40k Universe. It will provide him with the ability of the most potent physic in the entire Universe.
The next power is Kaleidoscope. Kaleidoscope will give him the ability to master the power of Multiverse. With this, he will have infinite mana, and he can gain his counterpart's power to make it himself. Lastly, this power gives him the ability to travel to the other world.
Next, power is the Inspired Inventor. It will give him the ability to make more power to create technology. Inspired Inventor gives him five charges, and for every charge, he able to develop a specialty that has a threat 3-5. However, the power can't be used in the same specialty at the same time. So he can't stack the same specialty after he gets it. He needs to wait for at least a day before he can stack the specialty. Stacking the specialty will make the threat level increase one level per stack. The total charges also didn't stack, so he needed to use all of the charges before it reset the next day.
The next power is Psychokinetic. This power will give him the ability to control energy. With this power, he can destroy a city without much difficulty and leave it uninhabitable for centuries.
The next power is the most broken power he ever witnessed. The following power is Power Manipulation, which gives him the ability to create another power. However, it also has the same limitation as to the Inspired Inventor. So he can't stack the same power at the same time, and the Charges can't be stacked, so he always has five charges and can't have more.
The last power is Shaper. Shaper gives him the ability to master biology and life in all its form and function. Shaper gives him complete control and manipulation of organic material within a massive area and also senses and understands every detail of it to the atomic level.
While he wanted to choose the Power Manipulation, but he also didn't want to make this character too overpowering on the first day. Hmmm, what should he choose?
