Star vs. the Forces of Evil : Marco Diaz The Conquest Devil

In an alley of an unknown city, one could see the silhouette of a teenager with messy, dirty black hair.

He was wearing a slightly torn high school uniform stained with blood, also sporting some bruises on his face.

"Shit, my life is ruined, even if I miraculously survive."

He collapsed on the ground, losing a lot of blood. Despite his situation, Claude couldn't help but sketch a small smile on his damaged lips.

He had always lived as a loser and a weakling, but today, Claude had had enough of the abuse he suffered at school. He had attacked his bullies with a box cutter.

Of course, a skinny young man like him had no chance, but...

"I've had a pathetic life and I couldn't even take one of these scumbags with me, but... I managed to revolt against my situation, haha..."

Claude now displayed an extremely dangerous smile, inappropriate for his age. As far as he could remember, Claude had never had a good life.

His mother had abandoned him at a young age, leaving him in the hands of his abusive father.

At first, he found some respite thanks to school, but because of his physical and financial problems, he had quickly attracted negative attention.

Thus, Claude had become a target of bullying.

All these events had slowly conditioned Claude to become a good little puppy, at least at first.

It turned out that a few years earlier, Claude had discovered the universe of manga and cartoons. This had slowly made him understand how pathetic he was as a human being.

He had wanted to change things.

*Bing* A notification sound.

"Who could be writing to me? I hope it's not that waste that serves as my father... cough"

Although he knew he was alone, Claude couldn't help but mutter as he tried to stay conscious.

He had already called an ambulance and had taken refuge in this alley, hoping his bullies wouldn't find him.

[ Do you want another life? ]

Despite his slightly blurry vision due to blood loss, Claude could still read the messages from an anonymous individual.

"A new life? Haha."

He had already read these kinds of stories. It was one of the ways that allowed him to escape his miserable reality.

Claude found this situation funny. He had always secretly hoped to die under the wheels of Truck-kun, but he had never had that chance.

Now that he was seriously injured, he had by chance the opportunity to be reincarnated?

Claude didn't believe it, but a desperate man would be ready for anything, even to make a pact with the devil, to escape a miserable life.

"Yes... I want another chance."

Claude responded positively to the strange question in the message.

[ Please choose a universe (including fictional) and an identity. ]

"A universe..."

Many whimsical and fantastic universes flashed through Claude's slightly foggy mind, but it didn't take him long to choose just one.

Claude really wanted to taste the things that had been denied to him in this life. He wanted to know love, live an ordinary high school life, and much more.

"I want to become Marco... Marco Diaz, from the cartoon Star vs. the Forces of Evil," Claude mumbled as he wrote his desire.

He had thought about Ben 10 and other incredible works like Danny Phantom, but he ended up setting his sights on the universe of Star vs. the Forces of Evil.

Why? He wanted to fully enjoy the experiences that Marco had lived. He had always been a bit envious of this character, he wanted to live his adventures with Star and the others.

[ Please choose a power, but it must not exceed the power of the chosen universe. ]

"A power?"

Even at this stage, Claude's mind was no longer very stable. He could still slightly understand the instructions.

After a moment of reflection, he ended up describing a power that would be useful to him in a universe destined to lose its magic anyway.

"I want Rick 137's knowledge..."

[ Rejected... ]

"Yet, the universe of Star vs. the Forces of Evil is a multiverse. It's logical to ask for Rick 137's knowledge, it's reasonable... cough"

Despite his protests, he received no response from the stranger.

"I want Makima's full powers, from Chainsaw Man, including her race."

Claude remembered that there were conceptual creatures in the universe of Star vs. the Forces of Evil. He didn't think this request would be refused.

He just wanted to ensure that his "death" would be impossible and that his powers would not be linked to magic. The devil in Chainsaw Man are literally immortal and are linked to a concept of the world.

He hadn't chosen Makima by chance, although he had been tempted to get Yoru's powers. Makima could literally turn humans and devil into slaves.

He even remembered that she had been able to prevent her own death by making a pact with a high-ranking politician.

Every time someone killed Makima, a random Japanese citizen died in her place.

[ Your request has been accepted... ]

[ Good luck in your new life, Marco, The Conquest Devil. ]

After reading these words on his phone, Claude's vision blurred and he lost consciousness.

Later, the ambulance would find a seriously injured teenager in the abdomen, and an investigation would be opened.

This investigation would lead to several disciplinary reforms regarding bullying in schools, but Claude would never benefit from them.

....

Marco's POV (formerly Claude)

"My head..."

I had a hellish migraine as I tried to get up from the bed.

"A bed?" I quickly sat up before inspecting the room around me. It was a completely ordinary teenager's room, but it wasn't unfamiliar to me.

As I tried to remember where I had seen this room before, a huge amount of information flooded into my mind.

"I remember everything now. Star, the monsters, the bullying, my useless father, and the stranger in my messages..."

I looked at my hands reflexively after remembering everything. I was clearly younger than before, and I had gone from being a white man to a Latino.

"If this is true then..." I pointed my finger at the window with the intention of aiming at a tree.

*BAM*

A telekinetic force brutally struck the tree before uprooting it. I was stunned by the power deployed, especially since I had taken care to use only a fraction of my strength.

"I think I'll have no trouble dealing with Toffee with this..."

I sketched a smile before blowing on my finger, as if it were a revolver.

*Knock knock*

"Marco, is everything okay? I heard a noise!!" Star's voice echoed from the other side of the door.

"Yes, yes, everything's fine, but I think something weird hit mom's favorite tree."

I headed towards the door to open it. In front of me stood a young blonde girl with two heart-shaped marks on her cheeks.

I must admit that Star is even more beautiful in real life than on screen. She literally left me speechless for a moment. My virgin side didn't really help in this situation.

Star didn't give me time to contemplate her appearance further before rushing to the window to see the damage I had caused.

"It must be the monsters' doing," she said, frowning.

According to Marco's memories, I was still at the beginning of season one.

I still have plenty of time to prevent many catastrophes, like the destruction of Star's magic wand.

"I think so too... By the way, aren't you hungry?"

I tried to change the subject. I didn't really want to reveal my Devil powers right away. I prefer to wait until I have a logical explanation for their origin.

"Yes, I was just about to ask you to make dinner, since your parents are away."
