DxD: Flames of Eternity

-?-

How long have I been drifting? Ha does it even matter anymore? I can't remember my own family or did I even have a family. But I can remember all of the entertainment shit like anime, movies, series etc.

I don't know how much longer I can last but I'm sure that it ain't much longer.

"Hello there, and congrats on being the one who lasted the longest", I hear all around me looking around to try and find the source, it hit me that I lost my will to open my eyes long ago haha.

I wonder what he means by the last one? Well, if I can get out of this, whatever this is I'll even sell my soul for the freedom.

"Well, I guess a helping hand is needed to move this conversation forward," said whoever it is. "and I won't be taking your soul or anything, in fact, I'll be rewarding you for the entertainment you provided and going to provide Hehe" I hear again.

*snap* I hear, and my eyes are open, but no pain due to the light or any discomfort and I even have a body which feels so comfortable. Looking around I see I'm in a room, well more of a fireplace and two comfortable chairs present.

"Well, why don't we sit down and have a nice talk, would you like a drink?" says a man well at least now I see who helped me, I guess?

"I… hm what no no" I try to say something but only fail, yet he gives a warm smile and speaks

-ROB-

Well at least a few, well my few is like 100's millions, passed and now I get to meet the one who lasted the longest in this little test of mine. Even out of the 100's million that I tested only 10's thousand meet my standards, one in particular even exceeds my expectations, hm I did off my 3 O's so ya, well now I meet him.

Well, I hope he chooses the wishes correctly even with the ones who passed many took or waisted the wishes provided to them.

Well, let's go get the boy and finish this batch of entertainment of mine.

"Hello there, and congrats on being the one who lasted the longest," I say.

A few Minutes Later

Well, he got it together quite fast, well I should not have accepted any less now he hot chocolate, and coffee for me while in peace full silence, quite nice as well reminds me of old memories.

"Now shall we start," I say

"Yes, please I would like to know what is happening," he says, quite polite as well, seems he understands somewhat of his situation.

-?-

Well, it is best to be polite while talking with who or whatever this being is, and I did get a body because of this being, the first time in lord knows how long I feel free, not feeling being restricted is so good.

"Now you my boy, can call me ROB"

ROB, wait I remember something like that what was it, my eyes with shock not even thinking something like this was possible, yes ROB or Random Omnipotent Being.

"Well let's start from the beginning shall we," ROB says, and I nodded not knowing what else to do due to the shock, "You see you were one of the countless individuals who I tested for my entertainment, even among them you lasted the longest and continued to exceed my expectations"

Wait shouldn't ROB already know the outcome of it, I think when I hear

"I shut off my 3 O's for entertainment, and yes I can read your mind, back to what I was saying as you not only cleared my tests but also exceeded my expectations multiple times hence you my boy get, multiple boons or cheats of which will be:

4- Essence, 3- Spins[templates], 1-Spin[world]

And since you gave me a good surprise you get to choose your background for free, and yes, the world spin can go first"

"Well thank you I guess, and yes I would like to start", I say

With a raised eyebrow he/she? Asks, "Ho don't you want your old memories of your family life or complain about the injustice or something?"

"Well, my memories I no longer care for, injustice who would I complain to, if I had a complaint that is, you are ROB", I say

"Oh, well, this is interesting. Well, just for that since you have no name, I shall give you one. Aedric, you shall be known from now onwards," ROB says. Hmm, Aedric, for some reason I feel quite calm.

"Now Aedric first the world wheel, you shall spin while you may not be able to see there contains an infinite no of worlds, after the world you shall choose your essences then your template spins, in the template you get, you will not become the said person you will get their knowledge, not wisdom, their techniques, which you must make your own and their memories and talent. Now know this if you choose people of different types i.e. fire and ice or water and fire etc, it will clash and it will become a jack of all but master of none type. While you could become a master if you choose it, Oh well, and the template spin will only have names of the world, you get to choose to person, now any questions?" ROB explains

"What if I get a world I don't know? And am I allowed to ask for your suggestions?", I ask

"Well, if you don't know the world then I'll provide the knowledge and as for my opinion ha depends on my mood so 50-50, I say" ROB replies, "Well any other questions?"

"No, I am ready", I reply

"Good, good, now think of it to spin and it shall"

With a wave two wheels appear one with the world and another with template written, ROB turns and looks at me. I thought of it spinning and it started to, it goes at such a speed that I can't read anything and even when it was still it was so small that I couldn't see anything, it keeps spinning for some time and then starts to slow down. And it landed on HSDXD, ROB had a thoughtful full look then turned and said,

"Well, choose your essence", I thought of what could be the thing that attracted him when I heard, "Think none of it you shall know when all of this is over", I nodded and started thinking of what to choose, at the end I choose,

The Essence of the Broker.

It enabled me to make any deals I so wanted. They would be followed regardless. I just had to get the consent of the other party, and they had to do so of their own free will while knowing the contents of the deal. I couldn't just…. let's say Imperio them and make them do whatever I want.

The Essence of the Archmage.

It was supposed to make me a cheat class magician like Solomon or something. A power generator of sorts that could make any type of energy I wanted, mana, spiritual power, chakra, ki, etc. You name it, and it made it. I was to start with enough power levels that would let me throw around high-level spells for hours before I became somewhat tired.

Superintelligence and the ability to analyze and re-create any magic were also included.

The Essence of the Blank.

This one didn't give me any super special power or anything. It just removed all limits from me. I can learn and do things even if I should not be able to do it without let's say a bloodline. For example, I could use the Ice Bloodline even if I didn't belong to the Yuki Clan in the Naruto world.

This however came with the clause that I had to work my ass off for it though. I will be able to develop my abilities to unnatural degrees and will not be stopped by anything due to incompatibility either. None of the not enough potential or sorry not born of the bloodline crap though.

The Essence of The King

This gives me infinite willpower, endurance, stamina and pain but need to be trained. A mutant bloodline where I can choose to pass on or not. Mastery in weapons even hand-to-hand combat. Immense talent in war, strategy, tactics, and logistics on how to train a small band of soldiers into an entire army. Mastery in economics, logistics, politics and other fields is required for a power/house/country. And finally, the charisma to bend will and sheer presence of a monarch, others would describe as divine.

"Very well, now the same for the templates", I nod and again think of spinning, it starts, goes on for some time and finally stops on Bleach, "hmm bleach, a good start and it will also have soul techniques, well Aedric choose the person who you want as your template"

Who should I choose, there are quite a few good choices, Kisuke Urahara, Sōsuke Aizen, Yamamoto-Genryuusai, and Ichibe Hyosube. Hmm, who should I pick well kisuke I ain't taking, Aizen while a great choice just isn't my style, well the OG old man is the best.

"I pick Yamamoto-Genryuusai as my first template", I say to ROB

"Very well, now spin it again, let's see which is the second world that you get", says ROB

I nod and start the wheel again and it lands on, Nanatsu no Taizai, well there is no doubt about who I want from the seven.

"I choose Escanor", I say, ROB nods and looks at the wheel again, getting the hint I start the spin again and the final world it lands on is One Piece.

"You can choose a devil fruit or the person who ate the fruit and no the water weakness will not be present", ROB says, there are only two choices I can think of either Marco the Phoenix or Portgas D. Ace, the "Fire Fist" Ace. Who to choose Marco or Ace?

"I choose Marco the Phoenix, for the last template"

"Very well, then even though I say template there will be no assimilation or anything like that, all of their talents will be combined and made a part of you. Their memories, knowledge and such will be in mind. Finally, even if someone reads your mind or you are forced some truth potion no one will find out about your rebirth. Now choose your background", ROB

-One Eternity Later-

"Can I be reborn as the eldest son of the Phenex House, I don't want to replace Ruval, rather be a new person, born before the civil war in 1330 AD?", I ask

"Hmm so born around 100 years before the redhead and the rest ah, sure and once again I'm surprised by your choice as not many are willing to be born during such a time, very well anything else?" ROB asks

"Well, what was the reason for the look you had when it landed on DxD? if you don't mind me asking", I ask, 

"well about that since it landed on DxD and well its power scaling is well, not straight so for my entertainment, I have changed it a bit, well with 4 essences and 3 templates, should be chill, well as long as you work that is, now any other question's?", ROB asked 

"Will, I be able to share a lower version of my essence with the help of Broker", I ask

ROB, with a smile, says, "Yes, you will be able to, any other questions?"

I shake my head, "Well then you will wake up and get your memories and all of your cheats at 2 years", ROB says then snaps his fingers and once again I can no longer see anything.
