Getting unique skills

Tensura-verse

The void between dimensions

Unknown days after Rimuru's reincarnation

~Adam~

Darkness

It was an all encompassing darkness that sent chills to whoever found himself here

It wasn't unlike the one I found myself in when I first died.... That experience burned itself into my memories, even though it was brief before I was reborn into the honkai impact world

The question is... Why?

Why am I here again?

Was there something wrong with the traversal of verses?

I'm not a Great Sage who can predict the future, but....

Did I get too arrogant?

<Request confirmed. Searching database....Acquiring [Great sage].... Success>

<... Error... Skill has been recently acquired...Duplicate skill not allowed to exist... Adapting with the owner...>

<Skill [Great Sage] is forcefully initiating a singularity mutation... Success>

<Unique skill [Great Sage] is no longer connected to the cardinal world>

With the Chat Room, I became more confident in my world. Although I didn't want to admit it, I did feel like the main character, similar to those fan fictions

I guess that, along with a form of immortality, it made me think I was the chosen one and thought that I would survive whatever came my way

<Request confirmed. Searching database....Acquiring [Chosen one]... Success>

.....

A bright red light shone from the depths of my soul as I looked straight at this message and activated my geass

I get it now, I'm in the process of becoming an Otherworldrer and gaining my skills, courtesy if the compatibility ability of the Chat Room

I knew something was wrong.... This place and the place I went briefly after my death felt different

The difference is small, but having experienced both, I could notice the difference with some effort

The red light representing my code and my geass simultaneously shone more brightly, threatening to blind any who are looking at my direction

It's not impossible to use my geass without a body, the only requirement is eye contact with the target, and just looking straight at the message of the voice of the world with my soul should count

So, for thinking that I died once again....

The bright red light of my soul condensed, awaiting for my command

Why don't you fall in love with me, voice of the world?

A bright red bird spread its wings and flew towards the robotic text in front of me

The text flickered red for a second, before returning to normal

<Request confirmed. Searching database for suitable skill.....Acquiring [Degenerate].... Success>

....?

Was it a success though?

I'm definitely not strong enough for my geass to work on the voice of the world. While it not being a 'person' would make it easier for my geass to work, it's not enough for it to affect the world's voice at it's core

So maybe a part of it got twisted by my geass?

As for getting skills.... You must have a great desire to get a unique skill

So... Let's try it

I have a deep desire to be the main character, to be more powerful, and I also have a great desire to have a harem full of beautiful girls

I also desire to devour honkai beasts, get their skills, evolve and become a predator

<Request confirmed. Recent acquisition has been confirmed.... Acquiring [Predator].... Failure.... Calculating.... Fusing [Devour], [Predator] and [Starved]>

<[Gluttony] has been acquired>

....

Devour...?

Did it take my devour from the genes of Vishnu and straight up upgraded it to Gluttony?

So that can only mean...

Either my Geass worked, or my desire was so strong that the world's voice granted me what I wanted

The geass I gave myself with CC's ability is a love geass, it basically twistes a person spirit and ego to make them a simp for me

Honestly, this ability is amazing, especially if used for enemies that i can't trust, but are useful for me

Although... using my love geass on an robot...

It doesn't matter I guess. I don't even know if it worked

And as much as I like the idea of everyone loving me unconditionally, this is something I will never use on intelligent beings unless they are an enemy

I'm not trying to be righteous, nor am I not using it for morals, it is just that using this to everyone will just grant me a bunch of "yes men"

I want something genuine, mind controlling people to love me is just too easy, it will make feelings lose their value

Besides, why use mind control when you can achieve the same effect with your own natural advantages?

...

Yes that sounds hypocritical and sappy, but so what?

....

If I had a body right now, my face would form a "what can you do?" expression

Speaking of a body... Why don't you create me a perfect body that will make me even more handsome?

<Request confirmed. Designing a body in one's image that does not have any flaws.... Success>

That's not enough, make me a better body. Normal humans have limits no matter how much you train

MANTIS' are not technically humans, but they still have limits like humans. Of course, they are far more perverted and ridiculous than humans

<Request confirmed. Designing a peak human body>

That....

That's actually useful. I'm satisfied with something like that...

Although....

Eh, fuck it, let's try it...

Hey, voice of the world, why don't you make me a God?

<Request confirmed. Acquiring [God]... Failure>

Though so, I didn't really expect it to succeed. Something like that would be too overpo-

<The [God] skill has been sealed>

It actually worked?! If that worked then couldn't I acquire-!?

<Limit Reached>

Without being given any more time to contemplate the skill that was given to me, the voice of the world forced me into unconsciousness as that was the last thing I heard before I completely blacked out

....

AN:

I'm not proud of this chapter

I contemplated what Geass I could give him, but I couldn't decide so I went with a love geass

Of course, it will have limitations, he can't just go to the will of honkai and make Prometheus love him when his soul and spirit is that of a normal (albeit more powerful) human, but he could do the same on a fragment and make honkai favor him

As for the skills.... since they exist already, then they should be in the database of the world's voice, so someone can technically get the exact same skill if the voice of the world specially gave it. Or am I getting something wrong?

If I am misunderstanding something, then leave a comment.... Or just treat it as an AU or me using my author powers to make it happen
