Chapter 1+2

*Ping*

'who's sending a text this early?'

I open my eyes and sit up.

"…"

'this isn't my fucking room!'

Greetings Gamer

A blue textbox is floating in front of my eyes.

"…"

"I've been fucking R.O.B.'d haven't I?"

For making a correct assumption you have gained +1 intelligence.

I let out a sigh and shake my head taking a quick look at my surroundings.

I am in the middle of some sort of junk yard, on all sides but one are massive mountains of scrap, crushed cars, rubble, rubber, plastic, and other trash.

Welcome to the world of Dxd!

'Dxd? The hentai anime?'

With Angels, Devils, and Fallen Angels, correct!

I just let out another sigh and stand up.

'where am I now?'

You are currently located the town of Kuoh, in a junkyard along the outskirts, this space has been warded and blocked off from normal human perception, this is your workshop, do what you will here.

'Time?'

Before canon, but just how much? You will just have to figure that out yourself, but, you have been de-aged so you will be around the same age as the 'main cast'

Now, go out and get stronger to survive the chaotic events that are seemingly attracted to this town.

'…'

I just walk down the path without saying a word, find a small trailer home, then walk inside and shut the door behind me where I take a seat at the kitchen table.

'you gamey bastards are lucky I am an otaku who has dreamed about this shit for eons, otherwise I would spend a good week or so sulking.'

Sp stands for stamina points, it is expended when you want to use 'special attacks' that don't involve magic in any way, for example, an iaijitsu strike with a sword.

Sp is increased by 5 for every 1 point of Vitality you gain, and the Spr rate is increased for every 40 points of vitality you gain. (By 1 percent per minute until you get a skill that lowers the regen time)

I repeatedly tap on the tokens.

Would you like to activate one? [Yes/No]

I tap 'yes'

You have gained a crowbar

Crowbar: (Common) x1

Allows you to pry open certain objects and can be used as a make-shift weapon when needed.

Requires 15 Str to use affectively in combat.

I continue onto the next token.

You have gained a light sword

Light Sword: (Uncommon) x1

A mass-produced exorcizing utensil used by any self-respecting exorcist from here to Canada, the fact that it uses light as its main blade means that it is really light (Huehue) allowing even a child to swing it easily, not that they should though! sadly, however, because of its weight, most can't really put much of their strength behind it.

Deals 50+¼ of Str per successful attack.

Deals x3 damage to unholy creatures.

Inflicts 'Least Light Poisoning' to unholy creatures when they are successfully cut.

Least Light Poisoning: Target takes 1 damage per second for the next 30 seconds. (Stacks up to 3 times)

'NICE!'

I take a brief pause.

'…'

'child?'

I hop up and sprint into the small bathroom.

"FUCK!"

I stare into the mirror at a short pre-teen with black hair and blue eyes, he doesn't even look over TWELVE!

I let out a really long sigh. 'oh well, at least once I go through that hell known as puberty, I'll be hot as shit~.'

I examine my pale face some more.

'hmm I'm pretty cute... damn son- no! Snap out of it! I have random skills and items to gain!'

I tap on the last item token and tap 'yes.'

You have gained a Materials Package.

Materials Package: Steel Plates (Uncommon) x1

Contains 500 thin plates made of steel.

Would you like to unbox this item? [Yes/No]

I tap no.

'and now for skills... this will singlehandedly decide if I am going to be op as hell, or just a weak boi for a month or two...'

You have rolled a common skill: Manabolt

Manabolt: (Active) (Level 1: 0.0%) (Cost: 100 Mp) (Common)

Allows you to project your magical energy into a weak attack that deals (5+½ Int) damage

You have rolled a legendary skill: Runic Magic: (A/n I actually rolled this using wheel decide, this was a 1/63 chance and I somehow got it on the one thing that matters.)

I choke slightly as I abruptly swallow.

'u-uh, system... how are tiers like 'legendary' calculated?'

Items and skills are split into 6 groups,

Common - Uncommon - Rare - Epic - Exotic - Legendary

Common skills and items are thing that you can nonchalantly find or figure out, much like buying a knife from a store, or figuring out how to swing something REALLY REALLY hard, or, in your case, project mana into a bullet that currently deals less damage than your normal punch!

Uncommon items are, basically the same thing! But for 'magical items', such as mass-produced magic weapons, like a light gun or light sword, simple spells that ACTUALLY deal damage or has a separate affect besides dealing damage, some examples of spells in this category would be Firebolt, Acid Arrow, Spark, and some minor resistance spells.

Rare items and skills are a bit 'rarer', Rare items tend to be things such as 'phoenix tears' or lesser magic swords that have their own affects, like the blade catching on fire because it was enchanted to do so instead of the blade burning things BECAUSE it was made of fire, basically, anything that is created by someone with Sword Birth or Blade Blacksmith is at least a 'Rare' item, Spells on the other hand just get more and more powerful, Explosive Fireballs, Lightning Bolts, and Petty Heal, the weakest healing spell.

Epic items are a bit harder to come by, really weak sacred gears such as a 'Twice Critical' would be in this category, considering you need to actually TEAR IT OUT OF SOMEBODY, killing them.

Magics or skills in this list are things like Touki, barrier spells, and Senjutsu.

Exotic items take the form of some of the weaker 'one of a kind swords', or most sacred gears stronger than Twilight Healing, Spells in this category are much more powerful than normal spells, an example would be 'Explosion Magic' when compared to 'Fire Magic'

Legendary items are powerful one of a kind artifacts like Durendal, Ascalon, a Longinus sacred gear that the user was foolish enough to allow it to be torn out of them, on the skill side however, are special things like devil 'clan traits', one of a kind magical abilities, lost magics and other powerful abilities limited to a single person or a small group of people.

I slowly nod and look at my new skill.

Runic Magic: (Active) (Level 1: 0.0%) (Cost: Dependent) (Legendary)

Runic magic, known as 'the code of the universe' to some who still remember it, is a long-lost magic that allows you to 'bend the rules' slightly on anything you cast it at, simple uses of Runic Magic allow you to turn metal red-hot with but a single word, cause a tree or animal to grow faster, animate an army of constructs to take over the world, it is truly up to you.

I silently tap on the last token:

You have rolled a Rare skill: Fireball

Fireball: (Active) (Level 1: 0.0%) (Cost: 2500 Mp) (Rare)

Unleash a small speck of fire that expands rapidly on contact with a solid object.

Deals 800+(Int+1400%)

Blast Radius: 5 Foot Diameter

I let out a content sigh. 'items can be replaced, the starter skills would have been a bit harder, but I REALLY lucked out here... a lost magic on DAY ONE of being a 'the gamer'… too bad I am still level one and my mana capacity is garbage... so I probably won't even be able to use it.'

I walk outside and raise my hand.

"Id: Create"

Nothing happens.

"…"

I pulse my mana through my hand.

"Id: Create?"

Still nothing happens.

"Hrm..."

You require 20 Intelligence to create this skill.

'tch, fine, take it you filthy vultures, actually leveling beyond the first level will help me more than those fourteen points ever will.'

By making a good decision, you have gained +2 Wisdom

You have gained a skill:

Create/Destroy Id: (Active) (Level 1: 0.0%) (Cost: 100 Mp) (Legendary)

Allows you to create a separate space with soulless enemies to slaughter to fuel your endless lust for power.

Current Instant Dungeons Available:

Empty: (Lv 0)

Zombie: (Lv 5)

"…"

'level... five? I should be able to take it, right?'

I pull out my light sword.

'two kids gonna die tonight!'

I appear in the world of my instant dungeon to find... it is the exact fucking same as the outside worlds... but I guess there are a couple of shambling brain-eaters now, so that's different.

I look out my window and count twenty- no, twenty-one zombies shambling around in my front yard.

'these look... surprisingly easy to kill... probably because of my rare weapon...'

I crouch and slowly open my door.

*Creeeeeeaaak*

Two of the zombies turn their heads to look at the now open door, I had to fling myself to the side to avoid detection.

"Guuuuuuhhhh" one of the zombies moans as they both slowly walk forwards towards the open door.

I turn the light sword on and wait.

"Grrr" the second growls as the first walks through the doorway-

*Schlick*

Critical hit (x2 damage)

Only to have one of its arms cleaved off by a blade of light.

"Graaaa!" It moans as it swings its second arm towards me, only for it to fall off as I swing the blade at the other arm.

Zombie Level 5 #1

I quickly kill it with a final attack that stabs it through the chest as the second zombie doubles its dexterity stat and SPRINTS at me.

'ohfuckohfuck'

You have leveled up x2

Your Hp/Sp/Mp has been refilled.

I slash at it as it gets closer and backpedal into the trailer, it follows shortly behind and swings one of its arms at me and slams its fist into a cupboard as I move out of the way, showing signs of quite a bit of damage as it tugs its hand back.

I slash it across the leg, fully severing it from its body.

Vital Strike (*1.5 Damage)

It tries to fall towards me, but I hold out a hand and unleash 3 mana bolts into its chest, causing it to fall backwards.

I briefly take a peek out the blinds to see about 5 more zombies making their way towards my open door.

'im going to hard pass on that one...'

"Id: Destroy"

Create/Destroy Id Has Leveled Up.

The slightly darker and less colorful world shatters around me taking the zombies with it, fixing the broken cabinet and closing the door like I never foolishly opened it in the first place.

I decide to lay down on the couch for a bit.

'what did leveling up change?'

Create/Destroy Id: (Active) (Level 2: 0.0%) (Cost: 95 Mp) (Legendary)

Allows you to create a separate space with soulless enemies to slaughter to fuel your endless lust for power.

Current Instant Dungeons Available:

Empty: (Lv 0)

Zombie: (Lv 5)

'nothing! It just costs slightly less now, same with manabolt, but it changed to ninety mana instead of ninety-five'

I glance up to the box tv and lay down, grabbing the remote from the small table in front of me.

*Click*

Then, I realize a huge glaring flaw in my general existence.

"…"

"I don't speak Japanese..."

I'm back in the zombie ID, hiding under the trailer I call my home.

"Hmmm..."

I point a finger towards one of the zombies on the outskirts of the small horde slowly meandering past my home.

A small blue orb arcs from my finger and hits the side of its head, causing it stumble slightly and slowly turn and walk in my direction, it isn't sprinting, so it hasn't seen me yet, and the attack was quiet enough that it also isn't bringing any extra zombies with it.

It bumps into the side of the trailer and slowly lowers onto its hands and knees.

*Schlick*

I stab it in between the eyes.

Super Crit (*3 Damage)

Then I abruptly and messily rip the light blade out of the side of its head, killing it.

You have leveled up

I continue this process twenty-four more times, to the point that the entire horde was wiped out.

You have leveled up x8

I point a single finger towards the armored knight and create a small bead of fire on the tip of my finger.

'as a smol loli pyromaniac would say, 'EXPLOOOOOSION!'.'

The bead launches at the knight and its head suddenly snaps around, but it is too late as the bead touches the ground in front of it.

*BOOOOOM*

The ground rumbles slightly as the marble expands and consumes the area in a bath of fire.

The large ball of fire disappears revealing nothing left behind in the large molten crater it made.

You have leveled up.

Fireball Has Leveled Up

"Id: Destroy!"

Create/Destroy Id Has Leveled Up.

The world shatters and I find myself under my small trailer home.

You have gained: 11250 Yen, 7 Zombie Teeth, 1 Zombie Flesh

'gross...'

I dust myself off and go out into the open, raising my int up to a nice even one hundred.

'I'm unbalanced as hell... so if I can't one-shot it or it gets the jump on me, IM FUCKED.'

You have gained a skill by raising your Int above 100:

Mana Apprentice: (Passive) (Level: Max)

Your maximum mana capacity is increased by an Additional 50% and all spells you cast are an extra 20% more powerful. (Stacks with Mana Novice)

'well, I have nearly four-thousand mana, let's see if I can use my runic magic.'

I hold out my hand and activate it.

Three symbols appear in front of me and fly towards a crushed car cube I transported with my inventory.

They hit the cube and white ring appears around the middle with the three symbols over and over again.

Nothing seems to happen.

"Uhhh?"

I touch it with a piece of paper causing the part that touched the block to blacken and char slightly.

'it worked...'

Those three symbols were the letters for 'Hot', and they did exactly what the word implies, they made that block pretty freaking hot.

I wave my hand, dispelling the runes.

'how can I make this work... better?'

I glance to the side to see that my mana is basically at zero.

'Questions for tomorrow'

Alert: the parameter has been breached

I quickly sit up and sneak my way outside.

Standing behind me is a large... man? If you could even call him that anymore, his arms are replaced by scorpion claws and his lower half is the body of some sort of giant... rat? But the tail has a spiky ball near the end probably for bludgeoning.

He reaches out to snip me with his arms.

I point my finger at him and unleash a fireball point-blank

"YRAAAAGH-" he shrieks in agony as it leans back covering his torso.

"Pleb." I scoff as I raise my hand above my head.

"Id Create: Empty."

I disappear.

After waiting 30 minutes and gaining two new skills, I think now would be a good time to appear back in the real world.

I crawl under my trailer and examine my new skills.

Suppress Magical Power: (Active) (Level 7: 63.1%) (Cost: None) (Common)

'let's do this...'

I appear back in the 'mortal realm'

"THERE YOU ARE- GAAAAAAH-"

I immediately roast the scorpion as I re-appear before he can charge towards me.

I point my hands towards the smoke cloud, my fingers mimicking a pistol.

"Bang."

I unleash magical orb after magical orb from my fingertips until I run out of mana

The smoke clears revealing a roasted scorpion with several 'bullet' holes in his body.

"meh." I shrug as I grab my light sword from my inventory.

'hmm... I kind of wanted to do some runic magic, but I think I might just go grind a few more levels in the zombie Id...'

Would you like to alter the light sword with your Runic Magic? [Yes/No]

'…'

"Yes?"

Deals x3 damage to unholy creatures.

Inflicts 'Least Light Poisoning' to unholy creatures when they are successfully cut.

Least Light Poisoning: Target takes 1 damage per second for the next 30 seconds. (Stacks up to 3 times)

The description of the sword is mostly the same, but the effects of the weapon grow a bright orange.

What would you like to change?

I shift around the wording slightly on some of the effects.

Deals 50+Str per successful attack.

Deals 3 and ¼ times the damage to unholy creatures.

Inflicts 'Least Light Poisoning' to unholy creatures when they are successfully cut.

Least Light Poisoning: Target takes 30 damage per second for the next 3 second. (Stacks up to 1 time)

I feel the sword get slightly heavier and the blade glows much brighter than before as several white runes appear around the hilt that sink into the handle and seemingly coil around it, then they fade to a dull grey, changing to look as if it was simply painted on the handle.

I wipe my brow. 'alright, I can add simple words like 'and' or 'the', but changing the wording from one 'segment' to another is really tiring, like when I removed the one-fourth strength and added it as additional damage to unholy creatures.'

I glance to my bars to see that my mana is at a low eight-hundred.

Runic Magic Has Leveled Up x4

'dear god runic magic is so fucking op! Like, can I shift effects between items, like make my new sword- that I can't use- deal x3 damage to devils? Or maybe even change SKILLS?!'

Runic Magic's level is not high enough to shift abilities between items.

Runic Magic's level is not high enough to change skills.

'it says 'not high enough' so it means that it CAN do these things...'

"heheheh!" I chuckle. "AHAHAHAHAH!"

The zombie lunges for me, but I take a step back and slash it through the chest, causing one of its arms to fall limply to the side as I sever whatever muscle assisted in its movement, then I turn and slash through the leg of a second zombie and watch as they wither rapidly, then I nick each of them once more and turn my attention to a third zombie, ignoring the two quickly dying zombies that quickly wither to dust after three seconds pass.

With my offhand I shoot a small blue bullet of mana through its chest, the attack only briefly staggering it allowing me to cut it in half with my next attack.

Critical Hit (*2 Damage)

'I stopped getting exp from these things the last time I leveled up, kind of a shame to be honest...'

A Mini Boss has been summoned

Griffard Level 15-

I silently vaporize him with two firebolts as he takes a step towards me, the first punching a hole through his torso and the second destroying his head.

'like, even that guy only filled up my exp about one-fourth of the way to next level.'

You have leveled up x1

That was my fourth time killing him, so that means that I killed over one hundred normal zombies.

A Boss has been summoned.

"…"

I bounce slightly as something heavy hits the ground

*THUMP*

I turn around to see a MASSIVE zombie slowly walking towards me.

I let out a sigh. "That was kind of disappointing."

'the first two are gross, but the last thing...'

Lesser Mana Potion (Uncommon) (x1)

A small vial of blue liquid that is known to restore mana... and besides! It tastes like blueberry!

Recovers 300 Mp when consumed.

"Hm." I hum as I tilt my head. "Decent... I guess."

"and now, to continue my nap!"

For the first time since appearing in this world, I am leaving my sanctuary, with a Japanese to English dictionary safely under my arm, entirely memorized with my one-hundred intelligence, I skip down the street with a smile on my face.

About two miles back I picked up a tail, it seems to be the small kitten of the Occult Research Club... looking... literally no different from canon.

I take a pitstop at a gas station and purchase a couple sodas, juice boxes, and just other snack food in general.

'you know... I could just be a midget like her...'

'pfft- NAAAH.'

I slip into a crowd and walk down an alleyway, in a different direction away from where I was originally walking.

'and I'm home free~'

Would you like to finalize the changes to 'Corrupted Devil Blood'? [Yes/No]

I tap 'yes'

Corrupted Devil Blood (Altered): (Uncommon) (x3)

When injected or consumed, grants the wielder a 25% increase to all physical stats, but at a cost, there is a 15% chance the consumer will be horribly mutated and have their mind twisted to that of a beast.

(The secondary affects are canceled out by Gamer's Mind and Gamer's Body)

I simply just swapped the 15% increase with the 25% chance to go mad and mutate.

'still an 'uncommon' even with the increase?'

Runic Magic Has Leveled Up.

I pick up a pipe next.

I swap 'hard' and 'easy'

The pipe bends under my hands as if it was made of rubber.

I swap the words back, and now I have a metal 'U'.

"Huh... cool..."

I look to a couple new items on my table, I got it after purging through the zombie instant dungeon twice more.

'FUCK! It's the Gremory group, isn't it?! I knew someone would come to 'kill' that stray devil.'

I let out a quiet sigh and grab a juice box from the fridge.

'how do I deal with this...'

Chapter 2

'hmm... the question is, 'do I want to become a devil?'…' I ask myself as I look to the ceiling.

"mmm Nah."

"Id Create: Empty."

After spending a good 12 hours inside the empty Id, grinding skills, I finally decide to leave.

I look around my house, noticing that some of my stuff is move around, but more or less put back in the same place... though, I am missing like three juice boxes and an ice cream sandwich.

"…"

"Those bastards didn't even close the fucking front door!?"

'alright, I'm a little miffed now... what assholes...'

I shake my head. 'might as well level up something else then...'

I smirk widely. "Time to level up like seventy times~"

I look down at my 'new and improved' light sword that I made for this exact occasion

'Light' Sword (Augmented): (Epic) x1

A mass-produced exorcizing utensil used by any self-respecting exorcist from here to Canada, it was augmented by Tomas Jones and twisted into something... wicked...

Deals 1+Str per successful attack.

Deals 3 and ¼ times the damage to creatures.

Inflicts 'Least Light Poisoning' to creatures when they are successfully cut.

Least Light Poisoning: Target takes 50 unholy damage per second for the next 30 second. (Stacks up to 3 times)

unholy

The blade is now a sickly blackish-red and instead of a sharp edge, black flames just ripple up and down the center.

'I couldn't really find a place to put that second 'unholy', so I just stuck it at the end, and sadly, it seems I am reaching a 'threshold', the system blatantly told me that I couldn't actually make it stronger than this, maybe the 'augmentation threshold' will increase with higher-rarity items... the only flaw of this blade, if you could even call it that anymore, is that it does SHIT melee damage, every single bit of murderdeath comes from that light poisoning debuff, it deals upwards of forty-five HUNDRED damage if I even scratch them three times.'

"Id Create: Orc"

I blink several times as I examine my surroundings, because instead of the normal junkyard I have become accustomed to slaying undead in, I am standing on a large green hill overlooking a shoddy looking outpost about four hundred feet below, it has several watchtowers made of logs, and an outer wall made of logs chopped in half and smashed into the ground, the walls seem to be protecting a load of tents, and I can see an extremely large one near the center of the camp.

"this is... new..."

I look behind me towards a large forest.

We seem to be in a valley of some sort, large mountains on all sides about two or so miles away.

"A little... big..."

I sneak off into the forest.

'hmm... I won't be able to just blatantly attack the camp... I saw a couple guards keeping watch... and I can barely take on a single level twenty-five, not to mention an entire camp... and besides, killing a single one of them leaves me spent, at max I might be able to kill three if I get them to group up closely.'

'besides, I saw those stats from even up here...'

'Every. Single. Orc. In that camp... is equal to OR BETTER than the last Id's boss...'

I let out a quiet sigh. 'maybe I can use the environment to my advantage... there is that one thing with Runic Magic I have been meaning to try out.'

I walk up to a small tree, about twenty feet tall, and place my hand on it.

"Animate."

It shudders, its branches shifting and moving unnaturally, sliding down the sides of the tree to where they are grouped up, then they weave together into some sort of monstrous arms, then its roots shoot from the ground and slowly lifts the trunk from the ground, where it falls forwards slightly and uses its arms to balance itself.

A large jagged crack appears in the trunk, and two red lights appear just above it with black dots in the center of each, the black dots move from me, to the forest, then back to me.

"KREEEE!" It raises its hand and tries squish me but I cast another rune magic spell.

"Bind."

Runic Magic Has Leveled Up

It freezes and its eyes turn blue with white pupils, then a ring of runes appears just below its jaw and around its arms.

It pulls its hand back and gently places it back on the ground and stares at me.

'and now... my mana is basically empty.' I mentally sigh as I look up at the tree.

'alright, I guess this is indeed a plan... should I spend my spare stat points to increase my wisdom so my mana regeneration multiplies by six?'

"Stay there for a bit, I'm going to turn this forest into an army, ill call on you when needed."

'hm... the mana regen would be totally worth it considering I am a caster now...'

I put my points into Wisdom.

'if my math is correct, I can go from zero mana to full in about two minutes if I meditate, and about nine and a half if I don't.'

I look to my body. 'annnd if I remember correctly, my stats can increase on their own, so why don't I grind the easy ones, and use points on the harder ones?'

And with that, I started a short training regime in between the time I animated trees.

I look to the nearly one-hundred trees in front of me, it took about fifteen hours to assemble this small army, and that was without using my meditation skill to speed up my mana regeneration, buuut I increased all of my physical stats up to thirty, so that has been a good time consumer, with my new strength and speed, I am feeling fairly confident about fighting at least a single orc in one-on-one melee combat... excluding the boss and mini-bosses of course...

I look down at the orc camp below.

"Atack." I command as I point to the camp below.

The trees rush past me, shrieking and causing the ground to shake as their roots slam across the ground, pushing them forwards at a surprisingly fast pace.

I use my new strength and speed to leap up onto the shoulder of one of the taller trees.

A loud war horn is blown somewhere in the camp.

'this is going to be great.'

I point a finger ahead of us as Orcs start to rush out of the gate.

"Bang."

A small orb of fire flies from my hand and hits the gate where a MASSIVE explosion detonates, shattering the gate and sending a couple orcs flying, then a second blast soars into the camp and lights a couple tents ablaze.

'now I just let my mana regenerate.'

The orcs get to their feet and continue sprinting towards my army, shouting incoherently and frothing at the mouth.

The Treant in the front opens its mouth and spits a web of vines that slightly wrap around the first orc, his dex lowering by 10... for about three seconds before he snaps the vines in his mindless rage.

'hmm... its health increased by about fifteen-hundred...'

He raises his axe and cuts a massive chunk out of the animated tree, only for the tree to rapidly heal around its axe and smash its wooden hand down on the orc warrior.

Orcs are kind of scary up close, they are like eight feet tall and have more muscle mass than most professional body builders.

I hop off the large treant's shoulder and leap down into the battlefield, lashing out and smashing the corrupt blade of my unholy light sword against the knee of the front-most orc three times before slashing at the next, then I leap back into the bramble and branches of my trees before they can react.

I watch as before my eyes, their legs start melting as if I pumped acid into their veins.

'this thing is op as hell...'

The first five or so orcs are utterly ripped to shreds as their weapons get stuck in the bodies on the treants, and it certainly didn't help that they were all slowly melting.

You Have Leveled Up x3

I unleash two more fireballs at a group of orcs that were blocking the gaping hole where the gate used to be.

Some of them turn to ash and disappear, while some hadn't previously been hit by a fireball and are just critically injured.

'hmm... that's what, like thirteen orcs total? And it seems like I have only lost about five treants...'

I blast a fireball at the battlemaster and a second at a group of six.

The battle is going quite well all things considering... about half my treants have died, but I managed to beat three battlemasters, those battlemasters are actually the one who slaughtered most of them, easily dealing more than half of their health in a single hit, while my treants barely even scratched them.

"Id: Destroy"

'…'

I smirk widely. 'this is op as hell'

"But now... i want some fucking noodles."

It's kind of cool how they let me actually purchase what I wanted.

I look at the large bowl of ramen in front of me.

I mean, it doesn't really help that I am being stalked by two opposing forces, the cat, and the loli fallen angel.

Koneko Toujou herself is being really obvious about it, blankly staring at the side of my head, only glancing away when I look over in her direction.

Mittelt on the other hand is actually trying, she has the menu up and everything, looking like she is going to order something but is watching me from the corner of her eye.

I finish my ramen, pay, and leave with my cup of Coca-Cola or Pepsi, not quite sure which it is, but it is defiantly one of those two, then walk through a deserted park, just daring one of my two tails- currently only the fallen one because for some reason Koneko is just staying at the ramen shop- to make a move.

I suddenly stop as a light spear crashes in front of me, then I look up into a nearby tree with a bored expression.

A small girl in a maid outfit leaps out and lands in front of me.

"Looks like I was right~" she smirks. "That dumb cow Kalawarner thought you were just a stupid human with magical potential! But I was right and she was wrong!~"

"Hi! I'm Mittelt and I'm like the most awesome fallen angel in the history of evar~" she continues.

"Is this the part where to try to kill me?" I ask in a bored tone. 'that valley girl voice is kind of getting on my nerves...'

"Yeppers! Like, just stand still and I'll make it quick!" She winks and does a cute pose while summoning a light spear in one of her hands.

"Mhm." I hum. "How about this, I let you get a single free attack, and if you fail to kill me, I'll cripple you with a single word."

She lets out her wings and floats up a foot or so, laughing behind her hand. "Aww the little kiddo thinks he's tough, that's like, TOTALLY adorable!"

She quickly flies forwards with her spear drawn back ready to stab me.

Ten feet

Five feet

One foot

She looks a little concerned at the fact that I haven't even made a movement, but is moving too fast to stop.

*Schlick*

The spear stabs cleanly through my chest and I stare blankly into her eyes which are slowing realizing 'Oh, I fucked up...'

I grab her shoulder.

"Seal."

She takes a shaky step backwards, her hands shivering slightly.

The light spear disappears into thin air, allowing a spurt of blood to squirt out of my chest and splatter on the ground.

"W-What's going on?!" She asks as she looks at her hands.

Her wings poof into a bunch of black feathers.

"W-WHAT THE FUCK?! NONONONONO" she clutches the sides of her head in panic as four runes surround her.

She holds her hand out in front of her.

"D-DIE!"

Nothing happens as the runes flash and fly at her.

"W-what?" She whispers.

"Congrats, you are now just a durable human." I smirk as I slowly walk around her in a circle.

I pull out a pocket mirror. "Take a good look at your neck."

She stares lifelessly at the dull grey runes around her neck.

"Now, this is the part where you realize that if I wanted you dead, you would be dead, but, I am nice guy, and I don't feel like anyone has to die today, so, you get to live, and I'll even remove those runes!"

Her eyes instantly snap towards me.

"As soon as you learn some fucking respect." I shrug.

Her pupils shake slightly.

The wound in my chest is slowly healing.

Mittelt falls down onto her knees.

I crouch down beside her. "Now, I am going to be brutally honest with you."

"You should probably return to the grigori, get some training, and just not try and kill stuff that has potential the second you see it, you should really be giving job pitches to them, not a spear to the chest." I state, patting the large hole in my chest which is still healing. "I heard that you have longinus users in the grigori, so why would you ever try to kill someone for having a 'Dangerous' sacred gear or 'dangerous' magical power, when you guys literally employ people who have the power to kill gods, frankly you are just making it easier for the devils in this town to get more servants, and that's dumb, you and your group are dumb, and are asking to be vaporized by the Gremory or Sitri living here."

She stares at me as I stand up and walk away. "you need to do better at your job, Mittelt, or you might just get offed by one of your higher-ups... or sent on a suicide mission, such as causing mischief in the territory of the little sisters of two of the maous."

I walk away with a pep in my step, humming a tune from an anime or something.

About a mile later, Koneko finally catches up, a small cup of ramen in her hand.

"Hey..." She deadpans.

"Hm?" I hum.

"You have a hole in your shirt... and blood."

"I know."

"…"

"…"

"I was stabbed."

"Mn. It didn't stick."

"No, it didn't."

"…"

"…"

"…"

She wordlessly takes a bite of her cup-ramen with some chopsticks.

"…"

"…"

"Bye."

"Wait." She cuts me off as I turn around and start to walk away.

"…"

"What?" I ask turning to face her again.

"Buchou wants to meet with you..." She states. "Im going to bring you to her..."

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Hm." I hum once.

"…"

"NIGERUNDAYO!" I abruptly turn around and sprint in the other direction.

Koneko blinks a few times, realizing that I am currently sprinting away, but is probably dazed by my jojo reference.

She blinks once more and decides to chase after me-

I turn the corner and enter an Id.

It has been maybe... a week since I met Koneko and Mittelt, I have spent most of my time grinding 'Runic Magic', and it has been a... process, I guess.

I hum a tune as I push this steel plate into the sand, the steel bending unnaturally to each and every line in the sand, much like putty.

Once it is sufficiently pressed in, with no air bubbles or jagged pieces, I simply replace the word 'soft' with 'hard' and watch as the steel visibly stiffens into the front half of a chest-piece.

I push it against the 'back half' of the chest pieces then plant my fingers on the cracks where they meet.

"Fuse."

A bright flash explodes from the cracks and when it clears it is as if these were never even two pieces to begin with.

I pick it up and step over to an assortment of other pieces I have made from the molding method, a classic knight's helmet with a ball joint on the visor, simple gauntlets with brass knuckle spikes built in, metal boots with spiky shins, the entire edgy armor package!

It took me far too long to make this... frankly, the chest was the easiest part... the hands of the gauntlet being the hardest.

I place the chest in the middle, the legs at the bottom, arms at the sides, and the helmet on top.

"Animate."

"Bind."

'its... so strong...'

The metal armor stands up and salutes me.

"I should... make some more of you..." I announce as I slowly walk around the armor. "It took several hours of un-interrupted work, but something above a low-ranking fallen is just too good to pass up."

'but first...'

I pull out an apple seed and a couple lesser healing, stamina, and mana potion.

Apple Seed: (Common) (x1)

Creates a tree when planted that produces apples.

'I have been waiting for this moment.'

I steal the word 'that' from a magazine I had laying around and tack it on at the end, then I steal the effects of the potions and slap them on after it, then I just added a couple more words I stole from an ice cream sandwich.

Magic Apple Seed: (Rare) (x1)

Creates a tree when planted that produces apples that Restores 300 Hp, Sp, and Mp when consumed.

Then I grab the word 'Grow' from a garden manual, add on an 'S', steal an 'Extreme' from another magazine, attaching a 'ly' on the end, then just adding on the word 'Fast' from another magazine.

I spend some time adding on some things that I thought the plant should have.

Magic Apple Seed: (Rare) (x1)

Creates a tree when planted that produces apples that Restores 300 Hp, Sp, and Mp when consumed.

Grows Extremely Fast.

Resistant To Heat

Resistant To Cold

I walk out of the patch of sand I was using to create my animated armor, Hank, and shoot a small hole in some dirt with a Manabolt.

I place the seed inside and cover it up, then pour a bottle of water over it.

A small plant pokes itself out of the ground

I point at the plant. "Growth."

The plant starts rapidly getting taller, at about an inch a second, then after about twenty seconds it just stops as a small sapling.

I pour more water on it.

"Growth."

It grows to just above my head... which isn't that impressive all things considering, but now I won't kill it by stepping on it or tripping over it.

I shrug and walk away. "Hey, Hank, would you like me to make you an extremely powerful great sword?"

"…"

"Great! I'll get on that in a second~"

I activate that one weak skill I got ages ago that increases my strength by five percent for one thousand mp a minute, considering my new mana regeneration, I am just off being able to hold it endlessly, and with each time the skill levels up it gets closer and closer.

With this activated like this, I only lose about one-hundred mp a minute, so I can easily hold it for over an hour.

Fortify Strength Has Leveled Up.

Make that ninety minutes...

I crack my fingers. "Great, let's get started."

I watch as my animated armor lifts the giant Zweihander out of the sand effortlessly.

Large zweihander (Common) (x1)

An even larger variant of a giant great sword used in the early sixteenth century by the German Landsknecht.

Requires 120 Str to use effectively.

If I was going to compare it to something, it would be cloud's buster sword, the blade is easily five feet long and at least five inches wide, leading to a sharp point at the end.

It gives it an experimental swing and sticks the tip into the dirt, taking a step back.

"Now I'm going to make it stronger."

I still get no response.

Frostbryn (Epic) (x1)

An even larger variant of giant great sword used in the early sixteenth century by the German Landsknecht.

Deals an Additional 300 Fire damage per hit

Deals an Additional 300 Electricity damage per hit

Deals an Additional 300 Cold damage per hit

Hank picks up the great sword again and gives it a swing, the blade leaving a trail of mist, sparks, and embers through the air.

'hmm... he reminds me of something...'

The animated armor kneels before me with its head bowed.

'…'

"HOLY FUCK! I MADE IGRIS!"

'I need me some fucking spray-paint a.s.a.p.'

"Stand up, Igris." the animated armor stands up and places the sword over its shoulder.

'I need to get him a sheath as well...'

"Hmmm..." I tap my chin. "I should probably train a bit more..."

Alert: the parameter has been breached

Alert: the parameter has been breached

'three?'

I just sit down on a pool chair I bought and wait with my arms behind my head, looking up into the sky Igris stabs his sword into the ground as he stands beside me and crosses his arms.

'hmm, who could this be? Sona has like six members including herself, Rias only has four... well, five technically, counting shut in Dio... or it could be six if 'before canon' was like maybe a couple days before canon.'

My animated armor, previously named Hank, now named Igris blurs in front of me and swats a barbed pink light spear out of its trajectory towards my torso.

"Oh, it's the fallen angels... I honestly didn't expect this one..."

"You were the one who killed Mittelt correct?" A black-haired woman questions from above. "She hasn't returned since she started looking into you."

"Nah, I didn't kill her, she probably isn't even dead, just realized you losers are annoying and went back to the Grigori." I sarcastically remark as I examine my nails.

The fallen snorts. "Of course, Mittelt couldn't kill her target, I should have gone instead of asking that horrid pervert to be my girlfriend.

'…'

'Issei is dead?'

Two other fallen float beside her.

"So, like, are you going to elaborate on that all, or do I have to just assume you have a kink for perverts or somethin'."

"…"

"…"

The male fallen, Dohnaseek, snorts while the blue haired one, Kalawarner chuckles behind a hand.

"Heh." I let out a huff. "You can try if you want."

Raynare summons another light spear into her hands and points it at me.

"Your flimsy animated armor won't be able to save you."

I smirk widely. "What makes you so sure about that?"

"Igris, take them out."

At that command, Igris rips his sword from the ground-

"Nonlethally if possible."

The animated armor freezes and slumps slightly, as if it sighed, then stabs the sword into the ground.

"But if it gets dangerous enough, you can swap to lethal... if you feel like it." I hum, this statement seemingly cheering up the armor slightly.

It 'cracks' its knuckles and gazes up at the fallen.

"Begin."

At my command, Igris leaps up into the sky, easily meeting the fallen above and grabs onto Kalawarner's ankle.

"So fast..." Dohnaseek blinks slowly.

Igris drags her to the ground and brutally slams her against it, taking off a good fifth of her hp, then he drags her downwards and uppercuts her, knocking her unconscious as another fifth of her hp disappears.

Igris looks up at the other two which are slowly gaining more and more distance.

I hold out a finger and start shooting manabolts at them.

"Dohnaseek! We are leaving!" Raynare exclaims as she flies backwards towards the barrier of the junkyard.

"hm." I hum as I watch them fly into the distance.

I look back to my animated armor as it drags Kalwarner to me.

"Now... what to do with you?" I mumble

"…"

I just poke her cheek and utter a single word. "Seal."

A white rune collar appears around her neck like Mittelt.

"Toss her out." I wave off to Igris as I turn around and walk back towards my trailer.

The armor gives a single nod and grabs her shirt in between her shoulder blades and yanks her up, then walks over to the edge of the junk yard, allowing Kalawarner's shins and feet to drag on the ground, then he just throws her across the barrier.

'I need to get him a fucking cape... or wings... one of the two defiantly.'

'a cape would fit him better.'

'let's see here, Raynare said that she asked Issei to be her boyfriend on the day that I sealed Mittelt, then Issei was killed on Sunday shortly afterwards, like four days total, then she showed up here three days after that with her fallen friends, Issei should have only just met Asia or tonight is going to be the night where they meet again... via Freed... did both events happen on the same day in canon?'

'…'

'then the next day Asia breaks out, has a date with Issei, and gets yoinked by Raynare, then Issei, Koneko, and Kiba, go and try to save her...'

I tap my chin.

'sooo, roughly, I have a day to kill... or, at the very least, somewhere around twenty hours.'

Now, you might ask me, why the hell do you want to go help the devils? Weren't you actively avoiding them not even two thousand words back? And you would be right, except for two words that make me want to go there.

LIGHT WEAPONRY.

There are over ONE HUNDRED stray exorcists inside the basement of that fucking church, and each of those little mook lv 1 (Probably slightly higher than that) bastards are holding a light gun, and a light sword.

'hmm... I should actually go now...' I mentally hum up at the sky.

'the fallen and freed are occupied with Issei currently, or will be by the time I get over there, so PLENTY of time to tell Igris to go out and-'

"…"

'Why don't I just tell Igris to go out to the church, slay the exorcists, and collect every single light sword and gun there...'

"…"

"IGRIS!"

Said newly-painted animated armor instantly kneels before me, the lights from my trailer reflecting off his new glossy black coat of paint.

"Go out to the church in town while the fallen angels and the stronger stray exorcist Freed is out, destroy every. Single. Stray. Exorcist. In that entire building, collect their light guns and light swords and bring me back all of them." I command as I hand him a small unopened container of rolled trash bags. "Any holy water would also be appreciated."

He grabs the trash bags in one hand, then stands up and walks over to his greatsword which is still stuck in the dirt from that fallen fiasco early yesterday.

He looks back at me expectantly.

"You may use your sword." I nod.

He rips the giant sword from the ground and almost giddily brushes off any remaining dirt off the side.

"Have fun~"

Igris turns away, swishing his new black cape and balancing his sword on his shoulders.

'ahhh... I love the smell of genocide in the morning, it's not even on my hands either, those devils were going to MASSARE them all... probably taking the light weaponry to be dismantled or something because it is a crucial weakness for them, but, hey, I want that shit, so I am going to grab ALL of that.'

I shout after him. "Try and go around the town, I don't want to alert the devils inside, but they should probably be preoccupied!"

He wordlessly gives me a thumbs up without faltering a bit.

I turn back to my table and drink. "Well, he will be gone for maybe an hour... what do I do now?"

"…"

"Grinding?" I ask with a small head-tilt

"Grinding." I nod.
