2 Chapter 2: Whishes

Alex thought for a while before replying, he only had three so he wanted to get the most out of all of them.

The goddess could easily figure out what he was thinking and smiled and said: "Alex, maybe we should first think about which world you want to go to, that will make your wishes easier don't you think."

Alex opened his eyes wide as he was too cut upon finally getting his wishes that he didn't think about picking the world first. Luckily that was easy since he had figured out what world he wants to go to when he first met the goddess.

"I would like to go to the world of Highschool DXD" Alex said with a confident voice. The goddess smiled strangely at his answer and couldn't help but ask, "Are you planning on starting a harem or something to pick that world, I won't judge it's just that I never expected you to be that sort of person."

"No, no you got it all wrong," Alex waved his hands, quickly denying her claim less he is branded a pervert by the goddess, "The world of DXD is more than just the girls although that is part of the plot in that world that is not the reason I want to go there," Alex said

"Oh, then..." The goddess spoke clearly asking Alex to continue.

"Well, the world is just like my old one except all the myths and religions have come to life, it's like my old world but with a twist. I can have power while also living the life I never had, but most importantly I liked the anime it had a cool story if you looked past all the perversions."

The goddess just rolled her eyes not fully believing Alex to which he could just let out a bitter smile and quickly change the subject, "Ok, world choosing complete now for the wishes, I think I have them."

"Let's hear them," said the goddess with a dubious smile, clearly seeing through his deception.

*Caught* Alex coughed to get rid of his embarrassment for getting caught and quickly got back to the topic, "For my first wish, I want all the powers I had in my previous lives." Alex said with puffing up.

"Can't" the goddess quickly shut him down, deflating his chest and making him look down. "But why?", Alex couldn't help but ask. The goddess gave him a smile as she pointed towards him and said: "Because they are already with you".

"Huh?" Alex looked at himself but didn't know what the goddess meant and if knowing he wouldn't get it she quickly elaborated. "The power's you had in your past have always been with you you just never thought of using them until you become a dragon in your last life, but to tell the truth even if I wanted to I would never be able to replicate the powers for you because your soul already reached godhood so there's is nothing I can give you except a mortal shell to contain your soul. When you get the body this time it will automatically be strengthened by your soul, although not as strong as your previous lives body's it will still be decent."

"I see," Alex said after listening to the goddess and then sank into thought. He was trying to figure out how to strengthen his mortal shell when an idea suddenly came to him. He excitedly spoke to the goddess, "For my first wish I wish for you to bring me the body of Azfius!".

His words shocked the goddess as she could quickly understand what he wanted to do, but then thinking about bringing that colossus of a body to the void she couldn't help but lament her fate, searching for some hope she wanted to confirm if that was really his first wish. "Are you completely sure you want to use your first wish for that.", and with a nod, Alex shattered the goddesses hopes into a thousand pieces.

The goddess braced herself for this momentous task, Azfius's physics had reached the realm of the high god, if not for it not being able to resist the goddess would never have been able to move it, it was very much the same as her trying to force another high god. With a shout, she released her divine energy, more and more power poured out of her and after who knows how long a colossal white gate opened and from the gate fell Azfius's body, still in the same pose as when Alex's soul left it. The white gate closed after the body arrived and the goddess breathed out, as she fell down a beautiful chair appearing to catch her. Her face was pale and she was sweating.

Alex not paying any attention to the goddess quickly went towards his old body and entered it with his soul. As the goddess had said he had killed himself from the inside at that time but what he actually just did was sever his soul from the body. Now that he was a soul and with the body being so powerful that not even time can corrode it all he had to do was reconnect to the body, that was exactly what he did.

The goddess having taken some time to catch her breath found that she couldn't see Alex anymore, she started standing up to look for him only to be pushed back into her seat by a mighty and heavy ancient aura, cracks started appearing around Azfius as the stone that had appeared around him because of time started loosening and breaking apart and with that Azfius's aura broke free.

The goddess Yris would normally not have been affected by this aura but now having spent more than eighty percent of her power at once to bring the body here she could not resist it and felt suffocated a feeling she had not felt in a long time. Luckily Alex realized this quickly and retracted his aura until nothing remained. He looked at the goddess with a guilty expression and spoke "Sorry about that", his voice boomed into the surrounding causing the black void to twist under its might.

The goddess glared at Alex, as she shouted," Well you got what you wanted, now what!". "Hang on a minute," Alex replied as a white glow surrounded him and with a flash, the colossus disappeared and was replaced with his original appearance and size. The goddess looked at him flabbergasted and couldn't help but ask "How, How did you do that", Alex smiled at her and replied, "The body might be strong but it had been dormant for ages, its defenses had gone down with the addition of me the owner taking control before rehabilitating the body a made some changes using my knowledge of draconic transformations. Although it was a pain and what I'm talking about probably sounds like bullshit that's how it is. I also took the liberty of making this body be able to switch between the abilities and appearances of my previous lives just to fuck with reason." Alex's answer left the goddess speechless.

It took some time but the goddess finally calmed herself down and while reclining in her seat she asked in an annoyed voice "So, what's the second wish".

"I want a house in Kuoh town, nothing fancy but also nothing terrible just an ordinary house," Alex answered. The goddess thought for a second and then agreed, "Ok, and I'll also throw in some cash, it should be enough for you to live lavishly for the next three thousand years"

Alex was visibly moved by the bonus and smiled at the goddess as thanks, now he didn't have to waste a wish on money. Now there was only one thing bothering him. "Say, at what part of the timeline will I be entering the world." The goddess thought for a while and said well if nothing changes it should be about a year before the protagonist's birth."

"That's fine, then for my last wish, I want all my weapons and armor of my previous lives." Alex said as he opened up a rift in space wit his magic, "You can just dump it in here." said Alex.

After granting the last wish the goddess approached Alex. "Well, this is it, I hope you have a wonderful time, bye"

"Oh by the way where wi...." before Alex could finish asking where he will appear the goddess slapped and with a bang he flew into a light gate and disappeared.

"That's what you get for making me bring that titan's corps here, humph" the goddess pouted as she saw Alex disappear into the light gate.
