1 Golden Notepad
In the cold, desolate space, with concrete ground, dark stormy clouds, and statues of people he doesn't know, presumably called gods waiting room... if the giant glowing words in the sky, were to be believed.
He had been waiting for a while, Grayson wasn't sure if this was normal.
After pacing for a while, he sat down, slightly nervous, not that he'd acknowledge the feeling.
He crossed his legs, emptying his mind, looking into the distance, though nervous, this place was oddly relaxing, perhaps the absence of anyone was Just what he enjoyed most... I mean, it can't be normal, a desolate plain of existence, not everyone would find that comforting.
Grayson assumed that he died, and was currently waiting in limbo or some other place, to be visited by some 'mysterious' entity.
While staring at the absence of turmoil, he caught sight of some small object falling from the sky.
It penetrate the clouds, bringing with it a trail of dark grey smoke.
Taking in the absurd situation, his nervousness was replaced with anticipation, Grayson stood on his feet, and began walking in the direction of the shiny thing that fell from what is probably the heavens.
Two hours into his journey, he realised something, this realm was very big, when the object fell from the sky, Grayson thought it was pretty close, however that was not the case... after all that time, the object only got a tiny bit brighter and bigger, so he continued his long walk.
Clearly this dimension was made for giants.
After at least twelve hours, Grayson finally got close enough to identify what the object was, and hell if he wasn't surprised.
It was a golden book... no, it was a literal f**king wishlist, shining with the light of god.
After recognising the notepad, a condition must have been met, which triggered the function for it to get off it's lazy ass, and go to him.
At high speed, the distance between the wishlist and himself, quickly closed, causing strong air currents to form tornadoes very far away.
Grayson looked forward, with his head, tilted slightly upward, the book was much closer, enough to see the indents and flaws in it's cover, but it would still take him a dozen minutes of walking, before he can throw a stone at the damn thing.
Grayson took in the spectacular sight, this book was his destiny, he could feel it, the infinite potential that it held, was something within his grasp.
He was filled with memories of how the book worked, and what it's capable of doing, he decided not to waste any time, no telling if there was a limit to how long this book would stick around.
'This is an opportunity of a thousand lifetimes, I'd better not screw it up, by being biased about my wishes, a lot of people limit themselves, for many reasons, fun, adventure, thrill, excitement, and all of those mundane experiences that they longed to have in life... I however am different, ever since I was a child going through puberty, I hated humans, despised myself for being one of them, flawed little rodents scurrying about their mundane little lives as if it actually holds any value, meaning or actual purpose, other than simply being a bunch of randomly assembled atoms, given a name.'
In life I was a nihilist, but that doesn't mean I couldn't enjoy life, it just means I realised that nothing has any purpose, the concept's of man are only important to humans on the little grain of sand we called earth.
Grayson focused his mind, causing the cover of the book to flip open, revealing the first of seven pages, each of which can grant specific wishes.
He thought carefully, exploiting the loopholes in this book, by carefully choosing how to construct his words, to achieve maximum profit.
He spoke his words aloud, while the book etched the letters by itself... seeing the words written down will help him add the details, like explaining how they work.
"I wish for the immutable & inseparable powers'
• Eternal Soul: The soul is everlasting, even after being erased, it'll just pop back into existence.
• Infinite Regeneration: The body recovers from all harm, even if destroyed leaving not a trace, long as the soul remains, the vessel will be reforged.
• Equal Speed: object's given velocity by yourself cannot be stopped, not unless the object is destroyed or you release the effect.
• Shrinking Distance: space will shrink and take you with it, propelling you into the distance, when used, it appears as if space is moving backwards.
• Expanding Distance: space will expand, and take you with it, propelling you into the distance, when used, it appears as if space is moving forwards."
"That should be enough for my first wish, it would be a shame if someone come's down and tells me to revise my words! Well now for the second page."
As Grayson spoke, the page followed his words, the giant book then turned the page, again, stirring up air currents.
As the second page appeared, Grayson felt something inside him awaken, something he felt was always there but just never noticed, he knew what it was, his instinctual fear of death had been extinguished, that trace of nerve wracking anxiousness had dissipated.
'So what should I go for next, the main things should be my mind, body and soul, making them strong, maybe even immortal, ahh, got it.'
"I wish for the immutable ability to alter the form of my physical body, into that of these six individuals, Magnus Bane, Ken Kaneki, Klaus Mikaelson, Olivia Ponton, Alexandra Daddario, & Dahlia Mikaelson. My body will have the bloodline of a tribrid, the perfectly fused, and comprised of these origins'
• Ultimate Ghoul: the deadliest weapon, making me five times stronger, unlike most ghouls, this one has all four improved Kagune, such as Ukaku Kagune, Koukaku Kagune, Rinkaku Kagune, and Bikaku Kagune, each of them having their own strong points.
• Original Vampire: conditional immortality, only to be killed by the white oak stake, or enough magic to overwhelm me and the spell, it also magnified my mind, body and soul by twenty times, plus making them all mystically indestructible.
• Witch Heritage: ability to access magic, through a mystical connection, however I also have my own pool of magic within me, that can replenish by converting my endless life force into magic, I have the raw power of Inadu, Dahlia, Qetsiyah & Esther."
Grayson tried to make his words short, by not explaining too much, but he still managed to fill the entire page, so he couldn't add much more perks.
'This is satisfying, now to make it official, by turning the page!'
Sensing his desire, the book complied and turned the page, the moment that third page had moved into view, he felt it again, the words on the previous page had stopped glowing, and became stone hard, cementing his wish.
'Well this is insane, with only my intent, I can turn into them, I mean, their appearance at least.'
Then he felt it, his sclera turned black, his iris became blazing red, veins draped down his face, while sharp fangs adorned his mouth.
Grayson noticed the quiet bloodlust laying dormant in the back of his mind, probably waiting for a trigger to wake it up.
He decided not to focus on that, besides, he doesn't mind draining some humans of blood, and tearing flesh... well maybe the second part.
Grayson quickly transformed himself, his skin shimmered, ripples spread from the tip of his hair, to his toes, by the end of that, he turned into Ken Kaneki, looking like an imperial emperor, in all his glory, holding nothing back, even his clothes had a wardrobe change.
He was now an adult version of Ken Kaneki, with white hair, the black eye patch mask with exposed zipper teeth, like the flesh around his mouth was ripped off, with only his one kakugan, he was wearing multiple layers of clothing, black and grey, with a long overcoat from half way up the back of his head, down to his feet, without covering the torso or leg area, draped down his back, the next layer under that is another long coat, which only went down to his knees, it covered his frontside, then another two layers, which were not much different.
This gave him the feeling of royalty, he loved it, without realising what he was doing, Grayson then released his rinkaku, having four scaled tentacles grow on his lower back, just above his tailbone.
After experiencing the miraculous effects of the book, he just wanted to fill the next few pages.
'I've got life insurance, even if I die, fall into a blackhole, or just get erased, my eternal soul and infinite regeneration will just bring me back, I have a strong immortal body, my mind is decent, I am a little bit psychic from my vampirism, since the original vampire spell was based on the immortality spell, which caused Silas to gain psychic powers, but my soul, though invulnerable to permanent harm, could be stronger!'
"I wish for an impenetrable Knowledge Sea, a storage reservoir for my divine soul, memories, experiences, techniques and all things related to the soul, the energy that floods the space, is the pure power of Dahlia, Qetsiyah, Inadu, and Esther."
Like last time, the page turned, the red hot words, became a searing cold blue, locking the wish in place.
Grayson felt like he had grown an extra limb, as easily as closing his eyes, he could enter his own realm, a place owned only by him, somewhere only an omnipresent being could hope to enter.
Unlike last time, when the winds would make him nearly stumble, now he could remain standing upright, only feeling a light breeze, the perk of being a walking, talking natural disaster, his magic was pressing him down, held in place, though he was twenty times stronger than an ordinary ghoul, that doesn't mean he was twenty times heavier.
The next page had been presented to him, however he was unsure of what he could ask for, Grayson's already got everything that could make his life interesting, he won't have to follow the rules of any mortal world that he enters, thanks to his compulsion, any opponent that presents itself, could be dealt with...
'Ahh, I suppose I'm lacking some fun toys!'
"I wish for the ability to create, summon, and destroy these artefacts and whatnot'
• Sudarshan Chakra: The divine weapon of Vishnu, god of preservation, indestructible & unstoppable, two disks comprised of ten million spiked serrated edges, spinning in opposite directions.
• Zeus' Thunderbolt: A devastating weapon to wield, capable of unleashing lightning strikes that can shatter or level mountains.
• Flaming Sword: A destructive weapon, capable of eliminating or slashing through gods, and even reality itself, the flame blazes with emotions.
• Demon Dagger: Ring daggers forged in hell, very sharp and capable of piercing the skin of celestials and angels.
• Death Note: A book used by shinigami, capable of granting death to mortals, with only a name and a face.
• Portal Gun: A gun that grants access to inter dimensional travel, can take you anywhere in the multiverse.
• Vortex Manipulator: Cheap and easy time travel, allows you to be shunted into another timeline, past, present or future, with only coordinates and a date.
• Monkey Paw: A paw capable of granting four wishes, within mortal limits, if it's something a human cannot do, then neither can the paw, anyone whom uses the paw will be cursed.
• Mountains and Rivers Bell: This bell emanates the pressure of the world, an old artefact that harbours ancient wild-lands energy, it has incredible suppressive effects, a single ring can destroy the divine soul of a powerful cultivator.
• Soul Warming Lotus: Constantly nourishes and strengthens the divine soul, protects against impurities, absorbs the soul's of enemies, prevents the fall to a devil, heals even the deadliest soul injuries, protects the soul, upon the bodies death."
'So what was that, my third, fourth wish, damn this is getting to complex, seven pages is way too many, or right, my fifth wish, well I suppose I could just give myself some new powers or something, I mean, what else could I want... Ahh, guess I have one more.'
"I wish for my true body, to be that of a knocker, residing in the head of my vessel, basically acting as a brain, I can switch bodies by moving my brain, but this also doesn't stop their, my knocker brain, is actually just the vessel of my true self, a black viscous liquid slime, pretty much like venom... but all of these are my true self, if I ever reforge my body, I will retain my outer vessel, my inner vessel, and my core vessel!"
'Well, this sh*t just got f**king complicated... which was what I tried to avoid, that's why I separated my wishes into damn categories and kept them simple, powers, body, mind, soul, artefacts, and now, hmm, guess it could be counted as my trump card, okay then, it's acceptable.'
Upon finishing that thought, the words cemented, the page was on the verge of turning.
Sigh* 'Those currents are making me tired, pushing myself down, creating my own gravity field is hard, magic is just leaking out of me, very inefficient, and ill have to endure two more of those... okay fine, I was going to try this when I could scale some buildings, but now is as good a time as any.'
Grayson then wielded his tentacles, making them much longer than they initially were, when he just let them hang around, they shot up into the air, then slammed back down, piercing into the ground, this caused his body to be lifted into the air, supported by his tentacles, being used as pillars, now no longer affected.
Just as he was lifted, the currents stirred up, doing absolutely nothing too him.
"I wish for the immutable ability of magnetic manipulation, capable of pulling raw metal out of the earth, dozens of miles deep, make a magnetic field, tear a crane apart, or lift up a giant stadium, like magneto."
Like before, air currents were stirred, Grayson was annoyed, and the world was right.
'I just remembered, I'll need to decide where in the multiverse I'm going to call home, ohh, that gives me an idea!'
"I wish for these three immutable abilities'
• Omni-Lock: Capable of leaving existence entirely, not being dependant on the omniverse to exist.
• Great-Wings: Grow a pair of angelic wings on your back, which are capable of opening gateways into other multiverses.
• Mystic-Refinement: Anything you refine with your magic become part of your domain, like normal objects, divine weapons, or just the ground itself."
'That was the last page, all seven wishes are now complete, time to close the wishlist and get right to it, I have a new lease on life, for whatever reason, I have no intention on wasting it by living the next thousand years working hard just for more power, got plenty of that already.'
With the closing of the book, it was no mere wind current, this time, it was a very strong golden blast of energy, that spread out in all directions of the book, indicating the wishlist was full.
This caused Grayson to be pushed back, his scaled tendrils fumbled to stay upright, stabbing out and into the ground, till it stopped.
The book then glowed, bathed in shimmering light, before finally vanishing into smoke.
"Alright then, suppose it's time to choose a new multiverse!"
