Chapter 7: Going Through Changes
'Did I just get a personal letter from the devil? And he wished me good luck?' Kenji's mind short circuited for a moment as he tried to comprehend just what his new reality had become, 'Well let's see what he was so excited about.'
Flicking past the message Kenji opened the next notification in the slew of text.
[Perk: Lucifer's Blessing]
Description: Blessed by the prince of hell himself, your very soul and being have been changed. It is in your nature to indulge in the pleasures of the flesh, and your patreon has seen fit to grant you every tool you might possibly need.
Effect(s):
Endless Virility
Satyr Blood
Golden Tongue
Eyes of Eros
While the text at face value didn't explain much, the nuance was sent directly into Kenji's mind allowing him to instantly understand what wasn't stated on paper.
'The endless virility is pretty straight forward, I can literally go all day and night without a single pause. Golden tongue seems to increase my base charisma, ensuring my words always match my intent and are delivered perfectly. Eyes of Ero's allows me to visualize the bond between me and the girls I'm interested in. As for Satyr Blood…'
Kenji's thoughts trailed off as he pulled down his pants and looked in between his legs, 'What the….'
Words failed Kenji as he stared at the monstrosity of a third leg hanging down from his groin. Even flaccid Kenji was bigger than most men, with a girth that could rival a soup can. But somehow perhaps even more frightening were the pair of tennis balls rolling around in Kenji's sack bloated with enough potent fluid to impregnate an entire planet.
'Isn't this a bit too much?! How the hell am I supposed to wear shorts ever again?!' Kenji bemoaned his unwilling body modification, 'Hopefully this thing doesn't slow me down during the exam.'
Forcing himself to move on Kenji hoped his quirk wouldn't be as perverted as anxiously read the notification.
[You have gained the quirk: Vessel of the Abyss]
[Quirk: Vessel of the Abyss]
Type: Mutation/Emitter
Power Ranking: Street Crime
Potential: Paragon
Description: The user of this quirk becomes an unwilling conduit for the Abyss, warping their physical form turning their skin black and granting them demonic features. Little is known about the Abyss however its nature as being all consuming and unrelenting is known by all. In return the user can manifest the abyss to create rudimentary armor and projectile attacks. But be warned, the Abyss must be fed.
Staring at the description Kenji couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and fear, 'I mean it sounds badass, but why couldn't I get something simple like matter manipulation, or gravity magic?'
Still Kenji's trepidation wasn't enough to stop him from activating his quirk. Holding out his clawed hand Kenji skin prickled as a thick viscous purple tinted ooze enveloped his arm up to the elbow. The ooze continued to writhe as thick boney plates formed along the back of Kenji's forearms and elbows. When the transformation finished it looked as if someone had replaced Kenji's arms with that of a monster.
Holding his hands up to the light Kenji felt an addicting sensation of power invading his mind. Splaying his fingers apart Kenji felt something pop and his eyes widened as he watched his fingernails grow into sharpened claws. Then as Kenji clenched his hand into a fist, the claws retracted so he didn't have to worry about stabbing himself whenever he wanted to punch something.
'I think I'll call this Void Armor,' Kenji mused to himself with a broad smile before dismissing the armaments. Turning his attention back to the system Kenji saw there weren't any more notifications, but that didn't mean there wasn't anything to go over.

'I get it, I'm part of the plot…can't sit on the sidelines,' Kenji rolled his eyes knowing that Lucifer was most likely behind his newest task, 'I wonder if every quest I get will have his signature flair.'
Closing out of the system Kenji blinked as he caught sight of his reflection. In addition to Kenji's skin turning an obsidian black, two tiny crystalline horns jutted from his temples, and his ears had become elongated like an elf. But they were hardly even noticeable with the mane of curly hair cascading down onto Kenji's shoulders with a dark purple coloration. But perhaps the most startling change was the four foot long tail growing from his spine.
The extra appendage was covered in thick plate-like scales with a hardened knot at the end the size of a small melon. Flexing muscles he had never felt before Kenji moved his tail back and forth while also getting it to curl and extend, testing its flexibility and mobility.
Quickly getting the hang of it Kenji felt there was something more and as he focused on the very end of his tail, the club opened like a flowering revealing a long serrated spike.
'Do I even qualify as human any more?' Kenji thought to himself before looking into his eyes in the reflection. They were still round, and their regular size, but had a etherial purple tint. His face had also changed, becoming more defined and angular with high cheekbones, a thick brow and a strong jawline, 'If not being human is the price for being a 10/10 I'll pay it gladly.'
Letting out a sigh Kenji went to strip out of his sweaty gym clothes and finally take a shower, when the sound of a glass bottle shattering followed by a high pitch scream rang clear as day in his ears.
