CHAPTER 1
-
Opening his eyes, he blinked a few times in confusion before seeing a red floating orb in front of him. Thinking that he was dreaming, he used his right hand to pinch his left arm hard, causing him to yelp in pain.
"Definitely not a dream."
"No you aren't, Mr. Hunter."
Looking at the red orb, he could only ask a single question.
"Is this what I think it is?"
After a second went by, the red orb answered his question.
"I'm afraid so, Mr. Johnathan Hunter. You have died from cancer."
"... WOHOOO!!!"
Unexpectedly, the boy started cheering as he hopped from his place and started wiggling his body in an attempt to dance. (The attempt was there...)
"YEAH! Oh, yeah, I can feel my body! And it doesn't hurt like a bitch every time I move! I'M FREE BABY!"
"Ahem."
He stopped at the interruption, making him just sheepishly chuckle at his actions.
"Sorry, it's just that I've never felt so alive after 6 years in the hospital."
He muttered while scratching his nape as a book appeared in front of him.
"No need to worry, Mr. Hunter. I understand. Now, time for business.
You see, it seemed that there were some... Foreigners that have hacked into our database and "screwed" up multiple fates of future babies, in the billions. Do not worry, that was almost a few hundred centuries ago, but the damage was done.
You were not supposed to obtain cancer at 8, but here we are. So, as compensation, the ones above have given those whose fates have been altered with reincarnation, be it another universe or your own.
Are you following me?"
Absorbing everything, after a few seconds, Johnathan nodded in understanding.
"Good. Now this book will show you the current worlds that are reincarnatable for you, both fiction and non-fiction. Yes, the multiverse is real — "
Johnathan was about to ask about the multiverse, to which the orb had cut him off.
"And yes, every universe of fiction is in the book."
Opening the book, Johnathan whistled at the almost infinite pages for the table of contents alone.
"Is there a sort and filter option? This is going to take centuries to go through if I look one by one."
"Of course, just say what you want or don't want, and I'll sort them for you."
"Neat. Erm... Fun and adventuring universes where there are supernatural powers?"
The pages started to flip as after all that, the book reduced in size, from a full book to now a 5/8 filled book.
"Universes where I can learn magic or sword fighting? Oh, and I don't want to go to universes where the enemies are unkillable or undefeatable."
The book reduced in size once more, now with 184,782,987 pages remaining instead of the 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999+ pages. Very significant.
"... No universes with viruses that would make the undead zombies, or something in the lines?"
31,782,987.
"Wow, there were a lot of zombie universes with magic. Uh... Universes that wouldn't outright kill mankind?"
5,782,987.
"Maybe sort by most famous universes?"
The pages of the book started to flip around and float before landing on his hands.
"Wow, there are a LOT of Harry Potter universes... Twilight... Percy Jackson... Lord of the Rings... Can you please give me only Harry Potter universes? I loved the books and lore of the wizarding world."
326,581 universes.
"... OK, that is still a lot. Hmm... Remove Manipulative and Bashing tropes. Hate those fanfictions the most."
13,826 universes.
"Woah, that was almost 90 percent! Jesus..."
Flipping the pages one by one, he quickly glanced over the pages before his eyes caught on something interesting.
-
HP 2394 O.R Universe
+ Talent in Combat Magic
+ Talent in Wandless Magic
+ Increased Magic Capacity (40% Increase)
- Backstory
- 2 Years Older Than Canon
18% KP
-
"The plus on the side signifies the positive advantages when reincarnating in the world, and vice versa with the negative. And KP stands for Karmic Points. Everyone starts with 100%."
"Oh, and what about the rest of them."
"You can use it to get special wishes or traits for your reincarnation. There are limitations, of course."
"... I'll take this universe then."
The moment he said that, the book in his hands disappeared as the orb floated near him.
"Wonderful. Now, you can request for anything, and I will tell you the cost of KP per request."
"... Then can I ask you to give me an enjoyable experience? I'll give the maximum amount of KP that I can use."
"... That can be done. 57% for the most fun and enjoyable experience. That includes of course downfalls and tragic events, but undoubtably will be "fun"."
"Deal! God knows I've suffered enough pain, 7 years!"
"25% KP remaining, Mr. Hunter."
"Sold! Oh, and can I ask something? What exactly does Occlumency do?"
"What it does from beginners to intermediate users is to shield the mind from Legilimency, while advance to master users are able to use Occlumency to construct a mind palace, making it easier to store information, the ability to seek the stored information at any time, and increase focus and willpower."
"Then can you give me some way to learn Occlumency? Not instant, but like a display or guide that no one can see to teach me Occlumency. I'd like to learn how to do it myself. "
"10%."
"Alright, fair. Still have 15%... Can you make it so that I have a body that will never get any illness at all?"
"5%. The world of Harry Potter has potions or spells to make sure that every wizard or witch is as healthy as they can."
"Huh, that's neat. I won't take it then... What do you suggest, Mr. Orb?"
"... I suggest purchasing wizarding currency as they may be useful for your... endeavors."
"Huh, good idea! What's the conversion rate for KP to Galleon? Also, from Galleons to USD?"
"1% KP for 500 Galleons, and 1 galleon equates to about $100."
"... Then I'll use 10% then! That means I have about $500,000 give or take. That leaves me with 5%..."
"I can suggest buying a talent for flying, 4%. It is quite enjoyable from the reviews."
"Oh, then I'll take it! ... And can I use the last 1% to change whatever name was in store for me to "Johnathan Yeager Constantine"? And make myself handsome too if it's possible."
He asked shyly as the orb answered.
"That can work. As for your appearance, I shall reference popular male mortals in your time. Very well, all KP has been spent."
Suddenly, a portal appeared behind the boy as the orb glowed brighter.
"That is your portal to your selected universe, Mr. Hunter. I bid you farewell and good luck for your endeavors."
Looking at the orb, Johnathan gave it a dramatic bow before walking into the portal, his vision going blank.
