Authors Preamble: This is my first novel so if you see anything wrong leave a comment so I can try to improve and/or fix it. My plans for updating this novel is hopefully everyday but I cannot guarantee that as I have a job and a life outside of this. I will try to have at least 1500-2000 words per chapter but I will focus on ending points so I don't just go on with a chapter for no reason. --------------------------------------------------------- This is a story about a Rio who dies when he wasn't supposed to. The gods decide to give him 2 choices, Rio chooses the second which come with 5 wishes. This sends him outside his home Omniverse into somewhere. First stop will be a sort of tutorial world and then main world which is the MCU with some differences. Rio will have the force, a modified gamer system, a riolu egg and DNA lock. I will not be writing any explicit scenes but they will be implied by fade to black when the time comes for such a situation. I have not decided on if it will be harem or not, most likely not unless readers really want it. Though there will likely be 2 females in the relationship at least but I don't really see that as a harem. If you have any suggestions leave a comment.
I had just entered the kitchen when Salem approached me and told me her decision.
Salem: "I would like for you to do option 1 and 8. I want to live a normal life just one last time before I rest in peace forever."
Rio: "Okay, I can do that. Let's start by purifying you. I will warn you this will hurt a lot and even as resistant as you are to pain it will still feel awful. Moreover, your corruption will try to make you protect it. Make no mistake it is a parasite and as such has been feeding off you. Come with me and we can get started."
We go outside and I have her chained down as I get my Ocarina out. I start playing Lugia's Song to cure her of her ailments which in this case is the corruption/parasite.
(Start Playing Lugia's Song.)
As I am playing it the oceans and weather become calm and many across the world hear the song as I decided to broadcast it to everyone to calm the world for a time. That and I wanted everyone to experience this song at its full glory at least once. No one could panic while the song was playing so no one would be reacting to everyone's devices playing the song. Once I get to the end of the song I open my eyes and see Salem is crying and the Grimm corruption is gone. She looks up at me and thanks me.
Salem: "Thank you. I never thought I would be cured. I am ready for you to remove my curse."
Rio: "All right here it goes."
To remove her curse all I needed to do was create a spell. I had a full understanding of her curse from the Relic of Knowledge. All I had to do was use a large portion of the stored sunlight and moonlight to power a spell that would temporarily weaken the curse allowing me to use the Song of Storms. Once the spell was powered I immediately began playing the Song of Storms.
(Start Playing Zelda Original Soundtrack - Song of Storms)
I didn't broadcast this music as I had already tested it and learned it is an area of effect type magic based on the user. As the rain began pouring down I saw a fairy enter the spell matrix and I was happy about that as it just made certain my spell would work. Once the song was over I looked over to Salem as she was looking at her skin.
Rio: "You are now cured. Now do you want to still go ahead with option 1 or do you want to live the rest of your life with no knowledge?"
Salem: "I am certain I would rather have almost nothing left. I want to ask if will I still be able to know who I am and what the world is like."
Rio: "Yes, I will leave you with knowledge of this world as well as information about who you are. I had a fake identity made for you and I can either have you stay on this island or I can send you to Menagerie where I will be improving it drastically."
Salem: "Then I would like to be sent to Menagerie. You may begin whenever."
Rio: "We won't do it out here as I will need absolute concentration. Let's get cleaned up then I will bring you to a lab where we can start."
2 Days Later...
I had just finished sending Salem to her new home. I also got the confirmation we got all we needed from Atlas and we could begin Operation Knightfall. I made to have on Nahkriin and some Sith robes to sell the act better. I activated the communicator.
Nahkriin: "The time has come, execute Order 66."
Robots all across Atlas said the same thing in response.
Robots: "It will be done, my lord."
(Start playing The Great Jedi Purge by The Ghost Critic on YouTube to get the full experience. )
Robots all around Atlas began firing on their leaders and soldiers without warning. Even if the soldiers or commanders had Auras they weren't able to react to the sudden attack. Many were cut down and the citizens were panicked as the robots just said to remain calm and that everything was under control. Bullheads were also infected by the command codes and began firing on military personnel. The automated defenses were under Nahkriin control meaning they wouldn't fire on the robots but would fire on the military personnel. Pietro the creator of Penny had come to the Atlas headquarters to find out what was going on.
Pietro: "What's going on here?"
Robot: "There's been a rebellion, citizen. Don't worry the situation is under control."
As Pietro tries to use his chair to walk past them, the robots respond by raising their weapons.
Robot: "I am sorry citizen but it's time for you to leave."
Pietro realizes the situation and backs off.
Pietro: "And so it is."
Pietro gets back on his bullhead and goes home. Pietro was worried about what was going on. Meanwhile, I was watching the entire situation with the commander droid to coordinate the robots to be most effective. We still haven't killed Ironwood but we had expected as much. Winter Schnee was at their family mansion so they weren't in danger. I had also programmed the robots to not see her as a target. I also made sure to capture the Winter Maiden to hopefully remove the power she has.
A Few Hours Later...
I was looking over the reports and saw that 98.9% of the Atlas military was eliminated. The 1.1% remaining were those we either couldn't confirm the death of or had managed to escape. I had begun the evacuation of Atlas to another continent as I intended on crashing the Flying City of Atlas to the ground. Their existence was going to guarantee that they would be a threat to the future peace of this planet. The citizens were being evacuated to Sanus, specifically the area between Vale and Vacuo. When I was done most of Solitas wouldn't exist anymore. Thus I had everyone evacuate. Any criminals that would be found would be taken away and used to raise more undead. Once I had confirmed 99% of the population was evacuated I decided that we wouldn't find the last percent and began the preparations for a meteorite hitting Mantle.
Rio: "Ambrosius make a gold ring of 3 inches in diameter with no unique abilities."
Ambrosius: "Really? Just a golden ring. Fine."
He makes a gold ring and I watch as Atlas begins crashing towards the planet. I sell the Relic of Creation and move away.
[Ding]
[Relic Of Creation Sold For 10 Million System Points.]
'Wow, now I am very glad I sold it. 10 Million in profit just like that. Now what is next on the list? Ah, Menagerie then Raven and her bandits.'
I teleport to Menagerie and gather the remaining magic-casting undead for a magic ritual which should transform the barren desert and wasteland into lush plains with a large lake. The ritual basically used the magic casters as a conduit for transmutation magic. I learned the basics of this ritual from Salem then just improved it myself. If this was done with a living being it would be considered an evil ritual sacrifice but when I use undead it becomes an impressive holy ritual. Once everyone is in position I begin the ritual by saying the long verse and finally drawing the magic power and souls of all near me. Once all but a few Dragon Priests remain I cast the spell and look as it covers the entire land and I am forced to look away to maintain my focus. I had to maintain complete concentration while the spell continued or else I might accidently kill those on this continent.
A Few Hours Later...
I had just finished the spell and had the Dragon Priests carry me away as I was certain a large group of people would be coming to investigate. I was paralyzed temporarily from taking in all that power that wasn't mine. Once we got far enough a ship landed to take me up to the Halberd. I was then placed on a bed to recover.
POV Ozpin
I had just woken up and looked around. I was temporarily confused as to why I was in the infirmary then I remembered what happened. I had collapsed and had a seizure from the magic that was used on Menagerie. I must have been rushed to the infirmary by Glenda. I am not sure what could have caused that.
'No one could do something so powerful. Even the gods were never that strong. Could it have been that Rio that Summer was talking about? I need to go investigate personally. Whatever just happened was incredibly powerful. I can't leave now as Atlas's people have been transported to the lands between Vale and Vacuo and I won't be able to leave until that is settled. I will have to ask Summer to get in contact with Rio as I must meet with him.'
POV Ghira Belladonna
I was leading a group to investigate the bright light and what we found shocked me to the core. Lush plains as far as the eye could see. With rivers and lakes dotted throughout.
Hunter: "Sir, am I seeing things or has the desert become a lush plain with abundant water?"
Ghira: "If you are seeing it so am I. I can't even guess how this happened."
???: "Our lord has revitalized your land."
We all turned quickly to the voice and I was ashamed to admit it but I was scared of what I saw. It was a human that was see-through. They were floating and covered in robes I had never seen before. What really stood out to me was the white glowing eyes. I decided to ask some questions to this creature.
Ghira: "Who and what are you?"
Krosis: "I have been named Krosis, and I am a Dragon Priest."
Ghira: "I have never heard of a Dragon Priest. You mentioned your lord, may I ask who that is."
Krosis: "I serve under Rio."
Ghira: "I see, how was all of this done?"
Krosis: "A grand ritual was done that transformed your drained land into a paradise as Rio has a soft spot for those of non-human descent."
Ghira: "Can I meet this Rio?"
Krosis: "When the time is right. Rio is determined to help your people to thrive in this land."
Ghira: "Would you come with us to answer more questions."
Krosis: "Of course."
POV Rio
After I recovered I had to meet quite a few people who wanted to meet me. Ghira Belladonna and the Sienna Khan were first. I talked to them and we agreed to work together after I showed them that I had magic and powers some would consider unnatural. I had the undead work tirelessly to build a paradise for the Faunus. After that, I had to meet with Ozpin which was annoying as he tried to get me to do things for him or drill me for answers. I basically ignored him and told him if he wanted to be rid of his curse I could help but otherwise leave me alone. Besides that I had several people try to force me to appear before the international council. I refused and stated I was not interested in their affairs. I had the robots help construct a new kingdom for the survivors of Atlas. Vale and Vacuo were slightly unhappy about a new kingdom existing but I believed it was best as it made it more likely that a single kingdom would be formed by the union of the current 3. Now I was getting the last few things together to wipe out the Branwen bandits.
'With Dimensional Lock and some undead, this should be easy. With Raven, I will have 2.5 Maidens. I already know how to remove the power without killing them. I already know where the Summer Maiden is I just need to pick them up after I am done here.'
I teleport to just outside the Branwen camp and cast Dimensional Lock. I made sure to have Nahkriin equipped to hide my identity. After that, I send in 4 Death Warriors to kill everything except Raven. I only had to wait for 3 minutes before all the bandits were dead. I entered the camp and saw Raven knocked out on the ground. I also noticed only one Death Warrior survived.
'I suppose it makes sense they aren't as defensive as the Knights. Now time to take Raven to the containment cell and grab the Summer Maiden while I am out.'
I teleport and grab the knock out of the Summer Maiden before they even realize what happened. Once I have her I move both my captives to a containment cell that seals their Semblances, Auras, and Magic. I then grab the only Maiden I don't have yet. The other half of the Fall Maiden. Once all of them are gathered I start the ritual and steal all the magic and place it in a jar for later use. Then I just release the captured maidens to where I got them but with no memories of me or anything related to me. It means Raven will wake to find her magic gone and all of her tribe with it. After all, I couldn't just not use the bodies to create more undead workers/soldiers. After finishing with that I started my prep work for killing the Demigod of Light. I didn't want any loose ends when I left the trial.
6 Months Later...
I had just finished the last technique in the Scroll. I had everything ready and now I was going to bring almost all the undead and Angels I had to kill the Demigod of Light. I had watched him for all 6 months to make sure he wasn't doing anything. All he did the whole time was sleep. My entire group consisted of 42 Cheribum, 6k Pricipalitiets, and 45k undead mostly of magic kind.
Rio: "Okay my army it is time to slay the dragon. All forces march!"
The army marches through the portal to the distant planet the dragon lives on. Once the army was in position I saw the dragon flying towards us and I prepared the welcoming gift.
Rio: "JOOR ZAH FRUL!"
The shout hits the dragon and it crashes to the surface and looks at me with surprised eyes.
Light: "What have you done? What twisted words have you created?"
Rio: "I have come for your head dragon. You have caused too much suffering now you will face your penance. CHARGE!"
The army charges at the dragon while it is grounded. A massive wave of magic spells shoots at the downed dragon and the dragon panics and creates a massive shield. The shield blocks the magic attacks but it leaves him open for the Angels to close the distance and start striking him with weapons. I made sure to instruct them to not enchant the weapons with holy elements as it would be negated instead they used lightning enchantments which are more effective. I let the army continue as I charge up and attack with my clones. One clone is in charge of reapplying the Dragonrend shout to ensure that the Demigod stays mortal and grounded. I see a massive breath attack aimed at the magic casters. My clones counter it with a jutsu.
Clones: "Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!"
A massive multilayered wall is erected to stop the attack. The dragon wastes a lot of Mana trying to break the wall but ultimately fails as 3 out of 12 layers stay up. Moreover, the dragon gets attacked all while using his breath attack. the wall is lowered once the breath attack ends and I see less than half of the clones are left as they had drained themselves of mana to maintain the wall. I use Life Essence and see we have only taken a 3rd of the dragon's health and most Angels have been destroyed. I check the progress of the attack and see we need another 2 minutes before it is ready.
Light: "Agh! Get away, you foul creatures!"
The dragon uses some sort of special skill that rains its Mana quite a bit. The force tells me to defend.
Rio: "Walls now! Angels teleport!"
The remaining Cherubims teleport in time while a massive 16-layer wall is erected in the way of the attack.
BOOOOOOM
I feel the ground shake as the dragon uses whatever skill it is using. What few clones that aren't helping me with charging the attack are dispelled and all that remains is a single wall that crumbles soon afterward. I see a massive crater on the other side of the wall and I have the Angels attack again. I use Mana Essence to see what the dragon has left and see it has no Mana left. I have summoned a weak clone to keep applying Dragonrend and focus back on the charging.
'Come on just one more minute.'
I sense most of the undead and angels perish. I sense at least 3 Cherubims and 4 Dragon Priests left. As another Dragon Priest falls I sense the attack is fully charged. We activate the attack knowing it would kill everything on this planet except me. A massive wave of death washes over the planet originating from me. I sense a massive spike of fear from the dragon but it is too late.
BOOOOOM
The wave washes over the dragons and he is disintegrated. All that remains is ash. Even my summons are not spared as I feel them be drained of all lifeforce. After the wave ends all that remains is a dead planet. The air, plants, rocks, water, technology, and even the soil was drained of life. The planet was dead in every essence a void in existence. I could feel no cold as even that was killed. I felt the dragon's soul enter me and I knew I succeeded. I left the husk of a planet and made a pitstop to sell the Demigod of Darkness's body.

[Demigod Dragon Corpse Sold For 12 Million System Points.]
'Sad I lost out on 12 Million points by doing that foul ritual but it was the best way to ensure that dragon died and stayed dead. Now let's finish the last thing I have to do on Remnant.'
I went back to Remnant then checked Ozpin to see if the curse was lifted and sure enough it was. I made sure the planet was all safe then left behind 5 Elder Liches and 5 Dragon Priests to watch over the planet after I left. I said goodbyes to everyone and did the last few miracles people asked for. Once all that was done I exited the trial.
--------------------
Authors Note:
Jeez, the trial is finally over. I am sure you guys can tell that the last few chapters were longer than usual. I wanted Rio to deal with all he needed to do in the trial before I would feel okay ending things. Also, some of you will probably be able to guess what Rio did to that planet. Rio will most likely never use that ritual again. The next chapter will be the gains from the trial and most likely Gacha. If you have any suggestions let me know. Until next time Ciao.
