Chapter 3

We bust out our room door and come out a scene of what seems to be a young man leaning over mother Maria in a provocative manner. Marcus started to walk forward, but I stopped him and said, " Put your aura on your eyes and look at him".

We see him through those eyes, and we see a tall man standing behind him, leaning over his shoulder, he looks to have horns and a dark aura around him, and we can't see him with our normal eyes. The demon seems to be whispering into the man's ear seemingly telling him things such as, "she deserves it, she owes you money, and hasn't paid you back, she deserves this for not being honest", his voice is deep and malicious as if he is trying to get himself in trouble.

Akemi: Marcus I think this is a job for you, you know being all bright and shit.

Marcus: What do you expect me to do shine a light in his face or something?

Akemi: Yes dumbass, your power is basically the same as an angel so it should work on demons.

Marcus: Alright this is dumb as hell but I'll try.

Akemi: Remember, don't shine it at the demon, shine it at the dude, the demon is just a manifestation of his power.

Marcus: Alright, hey dumbass!

He screams over at the guy and the dude looks over with a devilish smile and says," What can a little twerp like you do to me, HAHAHA".

Seemingly to prove his point his aura seemed to grow to try engulf Marcus but was forced off of his body because of a light that puzzled the demon.

Marcus's body started to shine a golden glow, and a transparent armor much like a ruler from solo leveling with only a single pair of wings compared to the usual 4 pairs appeared floating a few centimeters above his skin. Of course people like Mother Maria couldn't see it but the demon sure could and he was teriffied.

Marcus: Asatari, your kind have no place here get out of this holy place before I send your soul back to hell, and if I do it will not be pleasant.

They were currently in the church part of the orphanage. When Marcus entered his armor form to try to scare the demon, he earned a plethora of information about him such as his name and that he was not a very strong demon just perfect for him because if he was strong this would not have ended well.

Asatari was a name that the lower level demons shared because they were not important enough to be given proper names.(In my lore at least)

Asatari: This makes no sense, why is a angel here of all places, what did I do?

Marcus: Am I going to have to repeat myself?

He says this with the most agression his small body can muster, and it seems enough for the demon to understand as he tries to leave but is stopped at the door by Marcus again.

Marcus: So why are you here, and what business does that human you are possessing have with Mother Maria over here.

Meanwhile she is just standing there with her jaw on the ground confused as fuck wondering why the kid she picked up 5 years ago is shining like a lightbulb and the other is acting like this is any other day.

Akemi: "Mother Maria he'll be fine"

I say with a some luster in my voice.

Mother Maria: uh-huh

she says that with as little concentration as is necessary and has her eyes glued to Marcus is disbelief.

Back on topic, the demon seems to cower as Marcus looms over him, not with height but with power, as he speaks.

Asatari: Well Miss Maria over there owes the loan shark business this guy works for money, like over 15,000 dollars. He then scratches his head and laughs nervously.

Marcus:So that how it is huh? Momma Maria, you're smarter than this go to an actual bank and not some low life trying to scam you.

Akemi: Let's go pay them a visit shall we?

Marcus: Agreed.

Marcus: So demon where the hell is this place.

After a long hour of torture later and finally getting the location.

Asatari:So you're gonna let me go now right?!

Marcus: Yeeeeaaaahhh no.

Akemi: Before you do anything Marcus can you send that demon back to hell his presence disgusts me.

Marcus: I was gonna do it anyway I have a grudge towards demons for some reason, I just don't like him.

He then proceeds to grab his face and squish his cheeks inward to make him stop moving and gives him a face full of divine light.

Asatari: AAAAAHHHHHH IT BURNS IT FUCKING BURNS AAAAHHHHHHHhhhhhh.

When Marcus's job is done he lets go of the man's face and the man springs up, confused why he's there, he then confusedly limps out the door with a pained look on his face.

Marcus: Well oops I kind accidentally eradicated the demon's existence while doing that looks like I need to go into being an exorcist.

Akemi: Heh, an angel being a exorcist damn that's funny .

Akemi: Also we probably need to figure out that over there.

I then point over to Miss Maria who is extremely gob smacked at the moment, she hasn't stopped staring at Marcus and her mouth is open just muttering inconceivables into the open air.

Marcus: Yeeeeaaaahhh probably.

Akemi: Hey Mother Maria, listen to me, we are incar-.

Marcus: No no no no no don't do that, she won't understand, Hey Miss Maria we are messengers sent by God to protect this world, we are weak at the moment but our power will grow with age and experience, and God has chosen you to raise the future saviors of this world.

Maria: uhhhh Alright weird but fine.

Yeah she totally isn't in denial.

So anyway we figure this shit out and eventually we convince her to think that we are God's emmesaries, I mean we technically are, being reincarnated by the man himself, or woman I'm not judging.

....

A man that looks to be well into his forties is sitting with his feet on his desk smoking a cigar. We'll call this man Denis, so Denis is a schmuck a real Debbie downer if you catch my drift. No one likes Denis but they have to work under him to get the months rent paid. He's a real asshole you'll know what I mean in a minute.

A younger man walks into the office to tell him something about some old lady fending him off or some shit.

Denis just laughs a horrible despicable laugh and he looks up at the man and bellows." FIRED!, you know what that means don't you buddy".

The younger man tries to run away but in the end it was futile, a dark hand reaches across the room from Denis. The younger man then lifts off the floor and then holds his throat as if trying to repel an oncoming attacker.

The life slowly drifts out of the man as his body grows limp.

Denis: That was a fucking waste, he had some use in him with that demon he made a contract with.

.....

Marcus: Yeah so this is gonna be later right, cuz we're 5 year olds, thinking about sneaking into a compound of heavily armed men, and we don't know basically any fighting skills.

Akemi: Weeeelllll, yeah that makes more sense than my plan let's just not mess with them until they come to collect their debt again.

Akemi: In the meantime we should check that mental training place thingy in our system.

Marcus: Good idea totally hadn't thought of that.

Akemi: Haha thanks smart-ass.

Akemi: Open training space.

Both Akemi and Marcus' bodies dissipate from the real world into a space that is pure white and stretches out as far the eye can see.

A pop-up from the system appears in front of both of their faces as it is titled

Rules

1: This place is your own, with which you can use your mind to shape to your wildest dreams.

2: You can get any character from any multiverse but this one, and they have to be within your ability to train under so you can't ask like OAA ( one above all from marvel) to give you the secrets to the universe and no Marcus even with your infinite mind you can't comprehend the beginning of the universe or any shit like that.

3: The time ratio in this space is like you never left so even if you guys stayed here for 1000 years you wouldn't age and you would come back out to where you were when you entered this place.

Akemi: Fuckin bet this is gonna be training montage time.

Marcus: I've always wanted to learn systema.

My first pick was naturally Mori Jin from GOH (God of highschool) since I've always wanted to learn renewal taekwondo.

Marcus really wanted to learn Russian Systema which literally is what the KGB used to fight, if you don't know what the KGB is it's the Russian secret service back in the day, either way he didn't know a person who could teach him, so the system just brang in the most skilled systema fighter from our world. This dude looked like your average joe that just came from his job, extremely tired, he was wearing a black and white track suit, now that I think about it he kinda looks like he's in the Russian mafia. He then started talking to Marcus in a Russian accent," Hey, kid just so you know, don't expect mercy from me, also my name is Gregory. Don't call me teacher or any cringy shit like, that just call me Gregory. Whats your name."

Marcus: It's Marcus, pleased to meet you Gregory may these training sessions be eventful.

With a smile Gregory just laughs and says," oh you don't know the half of it, kid."

They then start beginner systema training, Gregory saying," This level of training suits someone of your.... stature".

Marcus: Piss off.

Gregory: Oh seems like you want more training.

Gregory then laughs like a maniac and his eyes gleam with insanity.

A system message then pops up in front of Marcus's face saying," You wanted to be good at systema, if you surpass this guy you'll be the best systema fighter on the planet, and also I've placed constraints on him to make sure he doesn't kill you", - David

There were iron shackles on his wrists and feet without chains to symbolize these constraints, also he is barefooted just for context.

Anyway back to me, the main man then pops in, Mori fricken Jin. He pops in with a white cloud of dust. When it dissappears he just looks out into the white nothingness with a look of confusion. He then looks at me and says ", Hey wasup dude."

All I do with a greeting like that is laugh and he then looks at me like I'm an idiot. I then tell him about the multiverse theory and he just looks at me like I'm even stupider.

Mori: Hey man if you're trying to teach a little thing or two about science, yeah I'm a little dull.

Akemi: Naw that's fine.

Mori: Anyway my name's Mori what's yours.

Akemi: The name's Akemi, so what can you teach me?

Mori: Well that matters on what materials we have here and it looks like we have nothing.

Akemi: Sorry man I should've prepared first well let's do this.

I then will into being, a training robot that has infinite Durability, Strength and skill so it calibrates to my skill level at any time and I can still train even if I have God level strength because it matches my strength level at all times.

Mori: Well how good is it, it kinda just looks like a metal robot.

Akemi: Well let's test a theory I have, Mori punch it as hard as you possibly can, and yes I already know you are the monkey king, you can stop being apprehensive about that.

His tense shoulders then relax as he looks at me with a genuine and stupid smile. He then pulls out what looks like an earring and says, " grow yeuoi".

His earring then grows to a 6 foot long staff about as tall as he is. He says it another time this time pointing it at the robot. It then then violently enlarges and throws the robot about a mile in that direct with a huge bang about as loud as C4 charge.

Mori: Huuup.

He then picks me up over his shoulder," Hey! " and we going flying to where the dummy landed. He was already on his feet twitching like he was pissed, he was actually cussing up a storm and pacing back in forth.

???:Hey bitches, I'm sentient, ok assholes it is not appreciated to be thrown a mile by a huge mother fucking pillar!!!!!!

Akemi: Well, we're sorry we didn't know.

???: Well, creator you're not appreciated either you could have asked, and I have a name too it's Rob the robot ok.

Other being pissed off he didn't have a scratch on him and Mori was definitely pleased.

Mori: So do you have an attack mode or something because I hate fighting someone that can't fight back.

Rob: Oh I can definitely fight back I have access to every martial art in the universe and can be better than even you at renewal taekwondo but I also have difficulty levels you can set me to, 1 to 1 million, 1 million being you can snap a universe out of existence. We'll now that I'm not royally pissed anymore let's get into a more casual form.

Skin and muscles then morphed and grew over his metal bones and he eventually turned into a guy with salt and pepper hair, a face with deep smile marks beside his eyes and mouth. It was my adoptive father.

Tears welled up in my eyes, as i say, " pick another form please" in a voice that wouldn't stop cracking.

Rob: Oh I'm sorry, I'm a fucking idiot.

His form changes this time to a random dude that I've never seen before but looks really familiar in full taekwondo gi. He's of Asian decent, Korean if I had to guess, and tall and lanky but looked like he could pack a punch as his body was well built but not too bulky to be in the way, definitely a fighter.

Rob: Well anyway, I'm sorry for that but for context I thought it would be good to work with someone you knew but nevermind.

Akemi: Alright then what is Mori's power level on that scale

Rob: Oh he's about a good 100,000 at max power, I mean he could destroy earth if he wanted to.

Akemi: Alright, then what is mine.

Rob: it's right above the regular human that works out a tiny bit so I'd say about a 25, also yes, when you become a master at a martial art your level goes up, so skill does count in this leveling system, but they only go so far.

Akemi: With that, well Mori, how about you spar with this guy at about the power level you had when you were starting the God of high-school tournament.

Mori: Alright that sounds like a plan!

Rob: OK let's get this over with.

Akemi: Also Rob I'll let you pick the martial art you want to use.

Rob: Oh well this'll be fun.

Akemi: Buuuut you can't be stronger than anyone skill wise than anyone on Mori's world.

Rob: Damn, well this'll still be fun.

Rob then goes into a position that I half recognize as jujitsu though I can't tell which, Japanese or Brazilian.

Mori then gets into his usual slouched attitude style like he can't be beat.

Rob then rushes Mori. Mori throws out a lightning fast kick but Rob is faster, he takes Mori to the ground in the most complex hold I have ever seen in half a second.

Mori at this point kind of looks like a pretzel. Rob let him go and says,"Thats what you get for underestimating me".

Mori: Alright, alright I get it I'll take you seriously

Mori then gets into what looks like a weird version of Beom Seogi or tiger stance mixed with the top part of muay tai where his chin is tucked in and hands folded over his head to fully protect it, it kinda looks like his hands are like turtle shell over his head.

It looks pretty good for what he has to go up against, a being that knows every single martial art in existence and can be as powerful as an omnipotent being.

Rob goes into this time a familiar boxing stance and starts hopping around on the balls of his feet.

Mori then strikes first and preforms a perfect high kick meant for his head and Rob dodges but Mori has another thing coming he then shifts his body and instead of following through with his kick it changes directions and knocks Rob straight into the ground.

Rob then takes this in stride as he flips himself over and grabs Mori's leg.

But Mori being the absolute chad he is, he front flips with Rob still latched on his leg and then slams his leg into the ground with Rob still attached, knocking him out cold.

Being a robot this only lasts for a second or two, he then gets up with a smile on his face seeming happy that he lost. He then bows and sits down in a cross legged position letting us get on with our training.

Akemi: Well my man, let's get this on with, so I want you to teach me your world's version of ITF Taekwondo.

Mori: Alright seems easy enough but it's going to take a very long time as it took me about 10 years in total to learn this martial art and I'm literally a God so it's probably going to take you a lot longer.

Akemi: Oh I'll be fine I got a godlike adaptibility ability when I went into this world.

Mori: OK then this'll take about 10 years I guess.

We then started to go through a hellish training to begin with to get my body to be able to sustain the training we are about to go through, and by hellish I meant hellish, because I don't have to eat, drink or sleep I never stopped training for about a month strait. Even though I never got tired it was still the worst pain I have ever felt as my body was literally being destroyed and rebuilt thanks to my adaptibility, trying to make it normal to run 10 miles a day or do 300 push-ups.

//////////////

POV CHANGE: Marcus Brockovich

//////////////

Gregory: Alright do your fuckin magic shit and build me a gym according to these blueprints, hmph.

He then takes a huge blue piece of paper out of his pants and gives it to Marcus.

Marcus, for some reason being able to read these plans like a book builds an exact replica of Gregory's gym down to that old stain in the upstairs carpet that won't come out after that long night of partying back in his old days.

Gregory: "Oh yes my baby, come to papa" (that's in russian)

And he just full sends it to his gym/ apartment.

How this building's layout works is that the bottom floor is a fully operational gym with weights, training dummies, and mats on the floors and walls, it even has an octagon for sparring. There is then a second story that is accessible via a fire escape, in the back of the apartment. This apartment has one bathroom one kitchen and one bedroom basically the bear necessities that you might need.

Marcus then hears from the second floor" HEY THERE'S EVEN OLD BESSIE, MY NINTENDO 64"

Marcus, not expecting to be waiting for a while makes himself two huge trees and sets up a hammock in-between them. He then proceeds to lay there and fall asleep for what seems like a few hours although time makes zero sense here.

When Gregory gets done admiring his apartment, Gregory then flips Marcus out of his hammock and he lands on the floor with a flop like you would expect a slab of meat to sound being slapped on a counter top.

After Marcus finishes griping about being dumped on the floor like a sack of potatoes they actually get to some training which starts with simple punching and kicking then it goes to grappling and ground pounding.

After working up that initial sweat that then get onto the real training which includes a sort of one punch man style workout regime, 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 10km run, every day for the rest of your life, but except for the rest of his life it was mattering on how fast he learnt systema.

As Marcus was a superhuman this training shot up 100 push-ups or 10km every month or so he was in there.

AN: After rereading this chapter I figured out it's kinda hard to understand this paragraph, it means every month he's here he adds 10km and 100 pushups on top of his regular training

//////////////////

A Fuckin While Later

/////////////////

Akemi: How far am I along man.

Mori: Oh you're as far along as I can teach you, I learned a lot about this martial art on my own and that's why you're a lot less skilled than me, you need to have more proper experience out in the field. So pretty much you need to have real experience to get any better.

Akemi: oh I guess so I'll be here a little while longer.

I then as I have practiced every 24 hours do the same routine, I run up the mountain I created, I practice kicks on the this poor tree, I mean the tree may be bigger than the white house but it's still the same density of maybe your regular hardwood tree like maybe an oak I think all I was thinking when I made it was I want a hard ass tree that can withstand some torment.

By now I can put a pretty sizeable dent into the tree if I try really fucking hard. I couldn't help but think that this would be so much easier if we were adults.

//////////

POV CHANGE: Marcus Brockovich

//////////

Marcus was just getting done with his 1,000 squats when Gregory came up behind him and clapped him on the back and said, " Hey man this is all I can teach you I mean you're much stronger than me, but your skill in this is much worse and only because I have honed skills every day for the rest of my life and you gradually get better with experience, I learned to be better through beating the shit out of rival gang members, maybe you can hone it by beating the shit out of assholes that you encounter along the way."

Gregory: As I have said I have no more to teach you, you know how to do everything so all you need is experience, now get the fuck out of here I don't wanna see that ugly mug any longer.

Marcus could of swore he saw a tear come out of Gregory's eye but he turned away too fast to be sure he then went inside his house to do whatever the hell he does on his off days.

Marcus: Well fuck you too, old man.

/////////

POV CHANGE: 1st person, Akemi Takeda

/////////

I say my goodbyes to Mori and then I haul ass over to where Marcus is training

Akemi: Hey bitch, where you at!!!

Marcus: Gimme a damn second.

I hear this being shouted out from a big ass hammock-treehouse lookin thing. All I could help thinking was damn I wish I was that creative , I just created a one story house with all the shit I needed, wasn't in there all that much though, except when I needed to rest my muscles.

He was out soon after I called him and we agreed to get out of this weird ass place as fast as possible, it was white nothingness as far as the eye could see, I mean seeing that for, I don't really know how long was really annoying and I was looking forward to real sunlight.

We both said," System, get us back to the real world please and thank you." Kinda like that atleast, mine was a bit more colorful but Marcus's was basically that.

We then felt that same familiar feeling of being squeezed through the point of a needle and we were out of there.

We came back in our room as sunlight filtered in through the windows and we both just sat on our beds and relished the feeling of the heat on our skin.
