Chapter 1: New World

When one thinks of the underworld, one would think of fields of burning magma, with souls stuck forever within living out the rest of eternity in suffering.

Though in this world that's not the case.

Vast lands stretch as far as the eye can see. Forests and hills dot the land, abundant with flora and fauna.

Large beasts rome the lands ascertaining their territories allowing no intruder to go unpunished.

And that leads to me, being chased by a freakishly large demonic bear whose territory I just dropped into.

*ROOOOOOOAAR*

"FUCKING DAMMIT ROB! YOU COULD NOT HAVE DROPPED ME OFF ANYWHERE CLOSER TO CIVILISATION!?"

I run with all the power my short legs can muster.

When I arrived in this world, I expected to arrive with peace of mind, and to be given enough time to adapt to my new body and life.

I can (NOT)proudly say I'm doing one of those atleast.

With every second that passes, I can feel myself adapting to my new body more and more, making use of every muscle in me to out maneuvre the demon bear thingy, taking advantage of the large trees in the forest, steadily increasing the amount of strength I use to bob and weave through the half assed attacks of the demon bear thingy chasing after me.

Though a huge pain in the ass, I guess ROB did me a solid by allowing me to adapt faster to this body by pumping me full of adrenaline and being forced to get used to it while beggining to develop some intstincts.

Though I don't know whether to thank him or to curse him.

After 30 minutes of our cat and mouse game, the bear, annoyed, decides to give up realizing that the seemingly small prey it's been chasing for the last while no longer looks as appetizing for the amount of effort it's taking to aquire.

It slowly lowers its speed before coming to a stop and letting out a roar full of annoyance and irritation at it its former prey before slowly turning and heading back to its home.

And with that terrifying event out of the way, I can finally catch my breath and take in my surroundings.

Don't get me wrong, for a specially modified 5 year old devil child, I have quite the stamina but running from a terrifying 3 meter tall bear for half an hour takes its toll on both my mental and physical stamina.

"Hah, hah, hah, that *WEEZE* could've been *WEEZE* worse."

Fuck, I hope I didn't just jinx myself.

I quickly steady my breath and take in my surroundings, looking high and low. I've waisted a lot of energy running from that bear so if something tries to attack me in my current state, then my new life will come to swift end.

Seconds turn to minutes and I see and hear nothing in my vicinity.

I slowly calm down and release the tension in my body, slowly leaning back on the tree behind me.

As I calm down I begin to realize that I'm a devil now and I could've probably just used my wings to fly away and out of the bear's range but then I might have become the prey of some flying beast so I'm glad I didn't do that.

I slowly regain my strength and begin to check myself for any wounds on me that the adrenaline numbed the pain for.

Thankfully it's just a couple bruises and scratches from bobbing and weaving under trees and branches.

That will heal in a day so I pay no head to my wounds anymore and begin to really take in my surroundings.

As I calm down, I feel a buzzing in my head and hear the voice of the ROB who dropped me here.

ROB:"Well, well, looks like you survived and managed to adapt yourself to that new body of yours. No need to thank me, I did what had to be done to get you up to snuff."

Now that I have a body again, I really feel that vein throbbing in my forehead. Deep breathes me, deep breathes.

ROB:"Your wishes have been granted.

Your body now has the inherent abilities of Destruction, Time Manipulation, Space, and the demon powers of Meli-whats-his-face. And since I am a benevolent ROB, I have thrown in a freebie for you.

I have given you an abnormally large but extremely potent mana pool so that you can have some fun. You did after all choose abilities with high mana costs and it will embarass me if you tire out after launching 3 attacks."

FUCK YEAH!!!! Thank you ROB for the freebie. I always knew you were the best.

. . .

Okay I'm kissing his ass but hey, in a world of a bullshit power system, a large mana pool will take me a long way.

And since my mana pool with grow with time, I'll be sure to become atleast an Ultimate class being if not a genuine Super Devil.

ROB:"Ah yes, as for the power system in this world, I have modified it so that it atleast makes some sense. In devil terms, the ranks are Low, Middle, High, Ultimate, Satan, and Super Devil with low, mid, high, and peak level for each rank.

Other pantheons also function on this power scaling but with different titles for the last 2 ranks.

In wing terms, they are one pair, two pairs, three pairs, four pairs, five pairs and six pairs of wings respectively. Angels work on similar power system but gains 2 pairs of wings upon reaching the ultimate class and peak of ultimate respectively.

There may or may not be a level beyond these but that's for you to find out.

As for your Reality Marble, it has been integrated into you.

There is a tattoo on the back of you hand, you can summon it physically to allow others in but you can let them out at anytime and you yourself can enter and exit at anytime."

Sweet, a slight fix to the world but now that means that some beings will be stronger than they were shown to be in the anime.

A bit annoying but with the reality marble at my disposal, I WILL become apart of the strong. I refuse to be a pawn in someone's game.

ROB:"The training facility you asked for has also been placed in your marble. It allows for training with up to phantom peak ultimate class beings.

Sword, spear, axe, hand to hand, it's all there. There is also a magically enchanted gym whose settings can be set to as much as your body can handle."

Well that just made my day. Now I'm guaranteed to join the strong, with some hard work of course.

Well as long as I don't piss off too many people and die prematurely.

ROB:"With this, I have done my good deed for the millenium. Have fun kid. Oh. and civilization is north east from here. Later"

And just like that, he's gone. I may never see the guy again so I put my hands together and thank the ROB from the bottom of my heart for the second chance I was given.

I know the world I'm in, I know the plot, and I know the key characters involved. I'll need to make the most of my time and make sure to change the outcomes of a few things.

I can't enjoy my time with my anime waifus come to life knowing that there are chaos loving terrorists and a stray Super Devil running around and plotting destruction in the background. Civilization can wait, gifts first.
