Dark... it's so... dark in here...

Where is here?

My eyes aren't closed, are they? ...nope, very open.

What's going on? the last thing I remember was... was...

I clutched my head in a fetal position.

𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝗣𝗮𝗜𝗻, 𝗽𝗔𝗶𝗡, 𝗣𝗔𝗜𝗡, 𝗣𝗔𝗜𝗡!!!

"AAAAHHHH, F***, IT'S BURNING!!!"

It hurts, it hurts, oh God, please make it stop...

Suddenly a blinding light flashes, all the pain stops and it's replaced with a weird mix between warm and cold, I try to look up but...

~~"𝓟𝓵𝓮𝓪𝓼𝓮, 𝓬𝓵𝓸𝓼𝓮 𝔂𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓮𝔂𝓮𝓼."~~

Holy cow, I felt that vibrating in my whole body, as if it was speaking directly into my head, just how f***** am I?

"ᴵᵗ'ˢ ᵗʰᵉ ˢᵉᶜᵒⁿᵈ ᶦⁿ ᵗʰʳᵉᵉ ʸᵉᵃʳˢ, ˢʰᵉ ʷᵃˢ ⁿᵉᵛᵉʳ ᵗʰᵃᵗ ᵇᵒˡᵈ"

"you can open them now child."

That voice is familiar, but... should I really look? it definitely changed its voice to appear more trusting... this could be a trap... but what choice do I have, really?

*open eyes*

"..."

"..."

"Morgan Freeman?"

" *sings* that movie it's really spoiling my image."

Now that my eyes are open, I notice that all that darkness was gone, it's so white in here that I'm starting to feel uncomfortable. I look back to the man in front of me.

"who are you?"

"...do you know where you are son?"

Great, someone who answers questions with more questions, just the kind of person I needed. But better be polite to a being that could shake me with its voice alone.

"can you tell me what's going on? Freeman... sir?" just how do I call this thing?

" *sings* you were very lucky that I arrived here in time child, otherwise the void beasts would have devoured you."

Say what? devoured? void beasts? lucky? just what is happening here? let's stay quiet, maybe he will clarify the situation.

"*visibly angry* Nyarlathotep, that dammed field, she has a nasty habit of stealing souls and tossing them into the chaos dimension while I'm placing seals on Trihexa. She knows I'm not left with enough power to cross dimensions after selling the beast *sings*, forgive my rant son."

Nyarlathotep? isn't that one of the things Lovecraft created? and Trihexa... where did hear this name before? I'm just getting more confused.

"NO, no, that's fine... but could you please tell me where is here exactly?"

"of course, of course, you see, this is the Void, or if you prefer, the nothingness that connects all dimensions, it is full of creatures born from that same emptiness, and you child, was about to be erased from existence for being exposed to the true nothing."

Ok... I will pretend any of that made sense.

"I-I see..."

"as I said, you were lucky I noticed you here, this wouldn't have ended very well for you otherwise, ...now son, would you tell me your name?"

"ah, it's... well... uh?"

My name, I can't remember!!! going deeper into my memories I noticed it's not just that, I can't remember the names of any person or places whatsoever, all I got was some objects, concepts, and locations with faceless people all without names to associate.

"ah... ah... n-no this can't be..."

I am hyperventilating, hands on my knees, I think I'm going to faint... until a hand firmly grasps my shoulder and I'm filled with a feeling of calmness.

"child, breath. Everything's going to be ok."

" *takes a deep breath* please, just tell me what's going on..."

"..."

He's looking at me intensely.

"child, would you permit me to see your memories?"

What memories? I forgot almost everything...

" *sings* alright, just... I just want to be done with this."

"allow me then"

He raises his hand and puts his palm on my forehead, and I feel some sort of warm spreading on my mind.

He stops just a few seconds later... that was really quick.

"...I knew of the infinite worlds but to think... *sings*, the multiverse sure is vast." '𝐵𝑢𝑡 𝑤ℎ𝑜 𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑡𝑤𝑜 𝑔𝑜𝑑𝑠? 𝐼 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑𝑛'𝑡 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑓𝑒𝑒𝑙 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑖𝑟 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒.'

"young Nephilim I going to grant you one wish and bring you with me to my world."

"wait, wait, hold on a minute, wish? Your world? what did you see?"

"It would be easier just to show you." '𝐼 𝑏𝑒𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑏𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑐 ℎ𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑦 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑙𝑒𝑑𝑔𝑒 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑛𝑜𝑤.'

He touched my forehead again and flashes of information began to fill in my brain.

Two beings, experiment, new life, no longer human, one wish.

Gods, devils, angels, dragons, and several other myths exist, the tension among the factions is raising, war is on the horizon, Nyarlathotep "pranks", the "666" beast is being sealed and god losses half of his power doing it, apparently, God's name is Yahweh.

He takes off his hand and gives me space to contemplate what I just saw.

What could be taken from all that was... I was f****** isekai'd... let me explain what the situation's like, now that I gained some memories.

I was dying of cancer when suddenly I appeared in a bright place with so many different colors that I couldn't tell how many were there.

There were two beings in that place, they told me I was to die young anyway and had an offer to make, the offer was simple, record my thoughts on a book and live my life.

But there was a catch, I would have to be part of their experiment. Too lucid to believe that was a hallucination and not wanting to die yet, I accepted.

Cut to me undergoing absolutely destruction of my body and soul, when God saved me, now all there's left is my one wish.

"a moment, please..."

"take your time, this decision will be permanent after all, young Nephilim."

Ah yes, the no longer human thing, apparently a Nephilim is a half-angel born with holy power and wings, but unable to naturally go to heaven or fall like a pure angel.

The thing is... Nephilims shouldn't exist in this particular world. *(AT: don't confuse it with "miracle children", it's a totally different situation)*.

From what I could gather from the thing God showed me, this world's history heavily resembles a certain fiction in my world, it was... ah... damn, it's hard to recall things with no names for reference...

It was a... borderline hentai, harem anime world, filled with monstruosities that could destroy cities in a blink of an eye, and the usual assholes that make use of politics and the delicate status quo to get away with horrible attitudes against the common folk... lovely place.

The thing is, Nephilims are born out of the love between an angel *(AT: not a fallen one, in that case, it's just a normal half-breed, Nephilims need to come from a pure angel)* and a human, but the system God made for this world and the very world itself doesn't allow one to be born.

You see, there's some kind of "Heaven System" that places several restrictions on the angels of this world, they can't think of anything as being above the lord's faith, they need to love humans as much as their creator, they can't have "corrupt" thoughts or feelings, they need to maintain the image of "pureness" for the sake of setting an example for humans, they always have to follow Heaven's will and must detach themselves from mortal desires and mortal themselves at all costs.

Love, by definition, is not a sin, but because of the system, angels can only feel platonic love or family love. They can fall in love, but fall upon acting on it.

There are loopholes in the system that can be exploited, but the results are the so called "Miracle Children", humans born with an anomaly high holy energy, and that is due to the many rituals needed for angels to copulate, plus the pure love.

Nephilims are naturally born, the opposite of half-fallen angels, and impossible to exist in this world.

What does all of this mean for me exactly?

The system will apply just like with a normal human to me... that means I can sin and even ask for forgiveness, but can never use holy energy like a pure angel or even a miracle child, I will have enough to vaporize a weak devil but won't damage a high-class one that much. The ability to fly and hear prayers from "pure" nearby people is also a good bonus.

As for the Plot?

I never read or watched anything in deep from that anime, but I can somewhat guess where the story will go.

Something like: Trihexa got free, protagonist and his harem just happen to be the ones tasked to defeat it, they have a long and arduous journey to reach the BBG *(AT: Big Bad Guy/Gal)* and manage to beat him with the power of friendship.

It would be foolish to assume real life will follow anime cliches, but from the things God showed me, this world is in fact dark but still very much so a cliche kink of dark.

As long as I don't get too involved and remain low-key, the protagonist should deal with the BBG, and then I can live my life with no worries.

Now for my wish...

This world is filled with dangerous beings, but what can really threaten me regardless of where I go? the three absolute dragons.

Trihexa, the Dragon of Infinity or the One True Dragon, the three of them can destroy a universe easily and me with it, what could I possibly use to escape them?

My wish has to follow some rules

Can't be anything that exists in the world.

Have to follow the natural order of the world. '𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑚𝑦 𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑒𝑥𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑛𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ 𝑜𝑓 𝑔𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑠𝑡 𝑖𝑡'

Can't be anything that can allow me to cross universes.

And the most important, it can't be anything the one you're wishing it for can't grant with their current powers.

This puts me in a difficult position, in theory, I can start with about half the total power of God, but don't really know enough things that meet all requirements and let me protected from the three dragons. Is there even anything I can ask that meets all my checklist?

"uh, hey... can I ask for anything?"

Let's confirm something first.

"No, my own personal requirement is that it needs to be on object."

F***, there goes Chakra and Reiatsu... what now...

I basically need an object that doesn't exist in this world, follow somewhat the world rules, won't help me bait the hell out of the universe, and be weak enough so God can actually give it to me.

uh, something that will be more versatile instead of making me a powerhouse then... something that will help me run away if necessary... to run away and fight in general, I need lots of speed and reaction time, what can give those?

Ah, I can use that... yes that will do.

"I've made my choice."

"speak child."

"I want the Amulet of Uroborus."

After I said it, his eyes got all white... it seems he's looking at something.

"no, I can't allow it... it goes again the rules"

What, but I... ah, I see.

"I want the Amulet the way it works in the gameplay, not the description of it."

"still..."

"come on, it barely even works on living things, the only "absurd" feature it's the pseudo-immortality it can grant the owner."

"..."

Please accept, because I can't really think of anything good enough for that crazy world.

"very w-"

"HEY, can you make it like a Green Lanter's Ring or something, like... only I can use or something... s-sorry to interrupt, my lord." *(AT: the MC doesn't remember people and places, even from fiction, he does remember about all else)*

"...very well." '𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑑 𝑚𝑒 𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑠 𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑑𝑜 𝑦𝑜𝑢.' *(AT: the MC will be like the Lanter's Battery, all the power come from him but he needs the amulet to canalize it)*

~"𝙏𝙝𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙝 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙙, 𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙡𝙙."~

His voice now gained power and is making my ears vibrate. I got on my knees automatically.

~~"𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨, 𝙄 𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙚, 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙞𝙩𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛"~~

It feels like he is screaming directly into my ears now.

~~"𝓡𝓲𝓼𝓮... 𝓝𝓪𝓽𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓪𝓮𝓵."~~

Now the feeling of my whole body vibrating is back.

...it's my impression, or did God just casually rename me? not that I remember my old one but... wow, now I'm an honorary angel.

A bright light flashes and I feel a new weight on my neck... and there it was in all its glory, the Amulet of Uroborus... I can feel some sort of connection to it... as if it was part of me... I can feel the power coursing through me...

It's magnificent, it's calm, it waits for no one, it's ever-flowing, it's all-consuming, it is Time... and now, mine to control.

*rises and looks at God*

"thank you... father."

"think nothing of it, my child... now, what will you do?"

His voice is back to Morgan Freeman's.

"uh, can't you just tell? omniscience and all."

"It doesn't work like that child, I can look into all creatures past and beyond the dimensional barrier, but I am unable to look into the future and never read anyone's mind without permission, even the ones of my enemies."

"really, ...forgive father, but that seems counter-productive."

"ah yes, Michael says the same thing, and my answer won't change, I respect others' free will and would never go agast this principle." '𝑤𝑒𝑙𝑙, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒'𝑠 𝑇𝑟𝑖ℎ𝑒𝑥𝑎, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑒𝑝𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛.'

"so it's like that then... well a plan to live quietly among people and live the life I never could before."

"...its that so? ..."

He seems to be thinking about something.

"then forgive me, child."

*crack*

"w-what, what's happening!!! father?"

A crystal is starting to form at the base of my feet, it's spreading through my legs pretty fast!

"I'm sorry child but it was necessary, I've read your past, you can't be allowed to remain free, not with a goal like that." *(AT: he didn't see his death, and won't read the MC's mind again)*

Read my past? but you just... s***, my hands got caught in the ice. I try looking at him.

"but you said-"

"I know what I said, and while I never judge anyone for their lives, I see their past actions and plan accordingly for the future... and you, young Nathanael, is lazy, hardly go out of your way to help someone, and is always thinking about saving your own hide, don't deny it, it's why you chose that power isn't it? but you can be motivated to work hard if it benefits you, right?"

Bastard, out all my fallings why don't you? ...man this s*** is cold, it's already on my chest.

"and what does-"

"you, would have ended up trying to advance humanity to a more modern era for your own comfort, and greatly interfere in my predictions as a consequence."

I can't believe it, he's pulling a "for the greater good" on me?

"t-that, n-n-not a-an..."

Damn it, it's hard to talk with all this cold, I think it's just getting colder... I'm shoulder-deep in this f****** ice.

"the cursed ice will melt when the world arrives in an era similar to the one you came from, you will still be required to write in your book, but apart from that, your life will be yours to live."

It's getting to my neck!

"f-fa-t-ther, p-plea-s-se."

"*sings* sorry young one, it's for the greater good."

Motherf*****!!!

"Y-YOU M-MANI-P-PULA-T-T-TI-V-VE SON O-OF...*freezes*"

𝑆𝑜 𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑑...

(3rd POV)

In the vastness of the void, a being of pure light pounders in silence.

𝐼 ℎ𝑜𝑝𝑒 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑡𝑜 𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝐿𝑢𝑐𝑖𝑓𝑒𝑟 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑛𝑒...

It looks at the giant crystal knowing the life trapped there, as it keeps pondering about the changes that would come with it.

𝑈ℎ, 𝑖𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑚𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑠𝑒 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑔𝑜𝑑𝑠 𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑑 ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑚𝑒𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒... 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑚𝑒.

The being brings the crystal with it, and both teleport out of the void.

They appear on a terrain filled with mountains and trees.

𝐼𝑓 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝐼 𝑠𝑎𝑤 𝑤𝑎𝑠 𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑖𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 "𝐾𝑢𝑜ℎ" 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑏𝑒 𝑙𝑜𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒.

It carefully buries the crystal under a tree and covers it with the 'presence of concealing' seals, special ones, they will hide the crystal from supernatural entities but not humans.

𝐼 ℎ𝑜𝑝𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑐𝑎𝑛 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑚𝑒 𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑙𝑑, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑙𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑙𝑖𝑓𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑜𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑟.

The being goes away, leaving the crystal there, hidden until its time comes.

Unfortunately, the being wouldn't live to visit this place again, for the war started right after he left, due to the other factions noticing his weakened state.
