Birth of the Supreme Demon: Kokichi
Disclaimer: I do not own Disgaea or Dangan Ronpa: V3.
Summary: Prism saw the results of the killing game of another world and decided to be merciful to one of the students that had died. That student was Kokichi Ouma and Prism decided to give him two options. When revived, Kokichi could either serve as a sorcerer under the Golden Land or be thrown into the Netherworld as a demon and build everything from the ground up. Prism was surprised that he chose the latter option and bestowed him a few gifts before sending him off to a dead Netherworld. Kokichi got two surprises besides being brought back from the dead. Reviving Amami as a vampire and turning Kokichi himself into an imp. Would the two manage their new lives as demons and could they assist the fairies of the dead Netherworld?

Before Hero Complex, there is this story. While this happens in all timelines, what happens in Hero Complex does not for obvious reasons. This is the beginning of Kokichi as a demon in my ever expanding universe. This also adds a headcanon to what occurred in Dangan Ronpa V3 (and probably changing some things concerning the infamous chapter 6). Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Awakening in the Multiverse
Death should have taken him to the grave. The entire point of his plan was to die in order to lure out the Mastermind. He had no idea if the plan even worked. All he knew was the Mastermind had his or her fun spoiled and it filled him with glee. He had made sure that the Ultimate Detective had all the information he needed to expose the plan and the Mastermind. That was all he could ask for. The killing game must be stopped.
So when he opened his eyes, he was confused as to why he was resting on a soft mattress.
"Oh, the great Kokichi Ouma has finally awoken. About time! I thought you were going to stay dead even with my interference!"
Hearing his name being called caused Kokichi to forcibly sit up. The first thing Kokichi did was look at his hands. Before he died, he recalled being crushed by a hydraulic press. With his body broken beyond repair, there was no way for the Mastermind to control the trial. Kokichi's death was instant so he only remembered everything fading to black once he ordered Kaito to kill him. It didn't make any sense for his body to be back in one piece.
"Hey, is your voice okay? Normally, you would be chirping away right about now."
The person speaking to him sounded just as young as he was. Kokichi blinked and decided to scan the room more before prioritizing the obnoxious voice. The softness of the bed made the young male want to fall back asleep. Alas, that wasn't going to happen. The room he was in made him feel he was still in the Killing Game. Golden wallpaper with butterflies decorated the walls. The ceiling was as limitless as outer space. Was there even something at the very top? Below the bed was one huge butterfly carpet.
"…Someone's obsessed with butterflies," Kokichi ended up saying. I hope this isn't Gonta's room in the afterlife.
"So that's the first thing you say when you come back to life? God, you really are a brat!"
Who had the audacity to call the Supreme Leader a brat? Kokichi finally faced the person who blabbered away. To Kokichi's surprise, the voice belonged to a boy younger than him. The short teen might have looked he was in junior high but the boy before him looked to be in elementary school. He had short blond hair with an ahoge that reminded Kokichi of a certain detective. His green eyes were just as big as his own purple ones. His attire caught Kokichi's attention. The boy in front of him might have sounded obnoxious but he dressed like an adult. His clothes originated from the Victorian era. That much Kokichi knew. The white Victorian outfit covered most of his upper body followed by a red inside vest that had a wonderful dark green coloring in the middle of it all. Four nicely designed buttons were aligned on his vest. The four buttons took the form of the four card symbols: heart, diamond, clover and spade and that was from top to bottom.
"Hmm? I thought I would see a handsome man waking me from my beauty sleep. It's only a child though…" Kokichi lamented.
The child didn't take this insult well. "C-Child? I'll have you know that I'm ten times your age!"
Kokichi cocked an eyebrow. "Oh? I apologize. You're an old man then."
The child really didn't like when his age was questioned. "You are a rude brat! I'll have you know, you're talking to the Creator of the Universe! I am Prism!"
If Kokichi didn't know any better, this kid was a huge fan of the Supreme Leader. How else would anyone come up with a huge lie like that?
"Wow, you aim really high!" Kokichi exclaimed. "Not bad."
"Aim high?! That is my title! I am the Creator of the Universe! People fear me! You have no right to mock me in the Golden Land!"
The Golden Land? What's that? Kokichi asked himself. Does he have a fantasy world too?
"Oh? Do you want to know what the Golden Land is?" Prism asked. He assumed that the human boy in front of him didn't know. "I'm such a nice guy, I'll tell you. The Golden Land is in the center of the universe! Witches and sorcerers live here away from humans, demons, angels and witch hunters! Alas, there's only a few of us because I personally handpick who gets to live in my palace!"
"That sounds like something I would do…" Kokichi mumbled. "Are you copying my style?"
"Your style? If anything, you're copying me!" Prism yelled. "Anyways, it's dangerous to leave the palace. There are animals exclusive only to the Golden Land! There is a church used for important weddings in the universe not too far from the palace. We have an amazing garden that only my friends and I can go to. There is a swamp down below the Golden Palace where I feed assholes to my pet kraken. The question is, are you going to be my friend or are you going to be an asshole?"
"I can be both," Kokichi said immediately. He couldn't help himself. Prism just set himself up to be mocked.
Prism sighed. Disappointment showed on his face with how much Kokichi kept insulting him.
"I guess I need to show you that I'm the real deal. If I don't, you're going to keep treating me like a kid."
Kokichi wanted to know what the blond child was capable of. Unfortunately, he was going to find out. Prism pressed a button on his suit specifically the spade. As if on cue, a magical being appeared in front of him. A young man dressed up as a Cheshire cat (for the most part) appeared before him. Kokichi hummed. The catboy was very attractive. Granted, having white hair was always a plus (even though Kokichi personally preferred shades of green). A minus for the catboy would be the fact he only had one eye and needed an eyepatch to cover it. Kokichi shivered when the white haired catboy leered at him.
"Woah! You're a magician?!" Kokichi asked, trying to play it off like he didn't have a bad feeling. "That's so cool!"
"This is my Furniture, "Chester". He's my favorite cat and one-third of my personal weapon," Prism explained. "Chester, explain to this child why it's not good to be insulting the Creator of the Universe."
The catboy purred. "Why, it's a good thing when you're knocked down a peg. Of course, you can't let your reputation be hurt by some mere human."
The Furniture didn't even have respect for Prism. He had less respect for the human before him though. Kokichi had quick reflexes so he was able to jump of the bed before the catboy clawed at his throat.
"Woah! Are you an assassin too?" Kokichi wondered. "Why do I attract all the people with the horrible occupations?"
"Stay still or my master won't be pleased," the white haired male warned him.
"As much as I would like to stick around, I think we can all agree that I'm not here to be killed again."
Prism had his eyes on Kokichi. Why did this kid have the look of a killer?
"…Coil."
Kokichi felt the ground below him shake. He didn't know what to expect until something big burst through the floor and immediately grabbed at his waist. It didn't take a genius to see that this clearly wasn't a magic trick.
"W-What the…"
"My pet kraken will have fun with naughty boys," Prism hummed. "You can take him away."
Kokichi needed to think fast. He could pretend this wasn't real but then he remembered how everything was in the killing game. This shouldn't be a surprise but even something as a monster kraken coming out to attack him was something not even Monokuma could do. He stared at Prism with fear in his eyes as he was dragged into the darkness. He failed to realize that he started screaming for help and for Prism to stop.
It was too dark for him to see what the kraken was trying to do. There was a tug at his shirt and pants here and there but it was also yanking at his limbs. The pain got to him and then when he felt something sticky and slimy poking at his mouth…
Fortunately for him, Prism did order his pet to throw Kokichi back out. The Supreme Leader saw the light in the room again and for once, he didn't mind the golden butterfly motif of the room.
"This is why you don't defy me," Prism said in a dark tone. "You talk like that to me again and Coil will do more than just coil his tentacle around you."
Kokichi's body couldn't stop shivering. Why did that almost happened? He wasn't in some hentai novel. This was real life…where he really was brought back alive and being given a second chance. He almost lost that second chance to a tentacle monster…
The Supreme Leader forced himself to calm down. He could not allow himself to show fear in front of the young boy. Hell, even if this boy was the real deal and he was speaking to someone equivalent to God, he needed to demonstrate his iron heart and determination. Kokichi forced himself to stand up. His legs still trembled from the scare.
"I take it back. You're not like me. You're more like Maki-roll!" Kokichi exclaimed. He really needed to stop throwing insults now. It didn't take a genius for him to learn that he really was in a lion's den and this kid before him was actually dangerous.
"Hmm? Who's that?" Prism asked.
Kokichi chose not to answer. Prism had a violent outburst like the assassin but had decided against having his catboy kill the Supreme Leader for disrespecting him and went straight to the kraken humiliation. He just needed to play along until he can come up with a plan to escape this place.
With Kokichi's refusal to speak, Prism decided to focus on his main objective now. Chester went over to Prism's side and suddenly hovered next to him. Kokichi had a harder time convincing himself that it was fake magic. "Now that you know I'm the real deal, let's talk about why I revived you," Prism began. "As the Creator of the Universe, I have access to every universe available. I am a witness to the killing games that occur in your universe. At first, I decided I had no reason to interfere. A battle of hope of despair is such an anime plot that it entertained me to no end."
Kokichi actually glared at the young boy before him. "…You think teenagers killing each other is fun and entertaining?"
"Hey, what's with the scary look?" Prism asked. A evil smile plastered his lips identical to the one that Kokichi would wear when he played the role as a villain. "I'm immortal! I'm going to get bored very easily. A game where it's kill or be killed is entertaining! Especially when it involves normal humans with unique skills!"
Kokichi bit his tongue. He refused to get provoked.
"Either way, it shook me to the core to learn the truth of the killing game. I mean, who knew it was a reality show running for fifty-three seasons!"
This was news to Kokichi. "F-Fifty three…"
"Yeah! It's been centuries since the Most Despairing Incident of Mankind occurred. The killing game was over and done with from what I read. However, someone thought that they could make money off of a tragedy more than 100s of years ago. This man is a billionaire now that he has made money off the corpses of troubled teenagers. It's amazing."
Kokichi didn't realize he was sweating. He had no clue that this was a thing. Then again, he knew his memories were tampered with but he didn't have enough information to put the pieces together before he died.
"…How do I know you're not lying?" Kokichi asked.
"You don't. But you're a living lie detector. I think you are smart enough to know if I'm telling the truth or not."
Prism was telling the truth. That annoyed Kokichi to no end. Why did something so ridiculous have to be true?
"Originally, teenagers desperate for fame and money volunteered to be the active participants of the game. Over time, people started criticizing the show and less teenagers showed up. Then underground deals were made and teenagers started going missing. Rumors of them being on the show were eminent but their personalities had been re-worked to cater to the theme of the show. It's an amazing horror story."
Kokichi found it difficult to breathe. "…Were they…kidnapped?"
"It depends. Some people still auditioned for a spot in Dangan Ronpa. Otherwise, they would be kidnapped if they had the looks. I mean, the man in charge is rich! He has the money to rewrite a person's personality to what he thinks the audience will appreciate. I wouldn't be surprised if you had your personality re-worked."
Kokichi didn't want to know. In his mind, he was always the Supreme Leader. Yes, he wasn't in charge of 10,000 people. Yes, the only people he cared about were members of DICE. Yes, he didn't have the greatest childhood…but still…
"From my observation, only part of your personality was tampered with," Prism continued, causing Kokichi's eyes to widen in horror. "You still are cunning and intelligent. You still are skilled a troublemaker and liar. You still have trust issues. The people close to you are real. The feelings you developed during the killing game are real and…"
"…What did they take away from me?"
"Besides your purity? I would honestly say your shyness. If anything, I think they fixed you up in comparison to the other students they messed with."
That wasn't reassuring in the slightest. Yes, Kaito had called him pure and naïve but Kokichi never saw himself as such. Kokichi had a hard time believing he was a shy individual if he was a troublemaker like he remembered. If that's the case then…
"…However, you were one of the few people kidnapped," Prism continued.
"…Why am I not surprised?" Kokichi muttered. "I would never willingly participate in a killing game…"
"And you have no audition video that most of the other students have," the sorcerer confessed. "It would be very hard for a director to get someone as cautious and shy as you. You are the perfect candidate. I wouldn't be surprised if they stalked you for a few weeks before they decided to grab you."
Kokichi really wouldn't be surprised. If he had the rest of his memories, he could figure out how he ended up in the killing game in the first place. The memories of the end of the world and the other things provided in the game were false. Kokichi knew this with absolute certainty that the mastermind intentionally screwed with them with so many false leads. Regardless, Kokichi felt that he wouldn't have been taken easily. People in DICE were his family and they would do all they could to protect him. The motive video he had scared him but he felt something was off about it. DICE were like Phantom Thieves. They appeared suddenly, committed harmless crimes and then vanished into the night. Their identities were heavily concealed so no one would have been able to determine their identities. If what Prism said was correct, Kokichi and DICE were being followed until they were ambushed. It perfectly explained his motive video.
"It's still hilarious how the one person they kidnapped for this killing game would be the reason why Dangan Ronpa is officially over."
"Hmm?"
"Oh, didn't you know? The survivors officially angered the fanbase enough that they don't want any more games. It's a shame but it means no one has to die. And that robot destroyed the facility that allowed for the killing game to happen...but he had to be destroyed in the process of allowing the survivors to escape."
Kokichi's heart skipped a beat. "How many survivors?"
"Just three."
"T-Three…"
"Don't worry. Your pretty little detective is a survivor."
Kokichi didn't realize he let out a sigh of relief. The one person he wanted to live did in fact survive the nightmare. His plan worked in the end. The killing game was over, and no one else would have to die.
"Now, I will explain why I brought you back to life," Prism continued. "I have a soft spot for lonely children like myself or troubled teenagers who died without accomplishing much. While you did accomplish a huge feat, you had so many loose ends that it would be a shame to just let you die alone like that. So I grabbed your soul quickly and brought you back to life. Alas, it took some time since your body was crushed. A body that was beyond repair is hard to fix but with magic, I was able to put you back…with some new changes."
Kokichi didn't like that one bit, "Changes?"
"You'll figure them out in due time. I have a request."
Normally, the Supreme Leader wouldn't think too much about the "changes". However, if someone powerful revived him, he needed to be concerned for his body. What if Prism messed up? Would his body fall to pieces? Would he feel the pain of death a second time?
"Stand by my side and become a sorcerer of the Golden Land…or not and become an overlord of a Netherworld."
Kokichi had nothing to say. "Your requests sound preposterous."
"Not really. This world is governed by magic. Everything starts and ends with the Golden Land though," Prism explained. "If you become a sorcerer, you'll be immortal like me. You'll have the privilege to do whatever you want whenever you want. I'll even make the palace bigger so you can have a room for yourself. I did like the room the Dangan Ronpa team gave you in the killing game and would replicate that."
"…And if I become an overlord?"
"You basically become a demon. Demons have a hard life. Everyone is out killing each other. They have no friends. They terrorize humans and corrupt angels. They basically do what they want but have boundaries. They age slower but they are allowed to maintain information longer. They are strong brutes with no moral compass. I honestly wonder what the point would be to become a demon. Be a sorcerer with me and-"
"I will be an overlord."
Prism stopped speaking immediately after Kokichi's answer. "Come again?"
"Did you not hear what I said? I said I will become a powerful overlord."
Prism snickered even though his expression expressed anything but amusement. "That's funny. I almost fell for your well-crafted lie. Of course, you want to work with me-"
"That is not a lie. That is the truth."
The blonde glared at the Supreme Leader. For the first time since speaking to him after the reveal that Prism was the real deal, Kokichi noted that he got on Prism's nerves.
"Really? Why would you pick the harder option?" Prism asked as he tried to pretend he wasn't offended. "Being a demon implies hard work. Hard work requires you to be motivated but without motivation, you'll just rot away like the majority of weak demons." Prism smiled knowing there was an easier way to persuade Kokichi to change his mind. "Also, being a demon means killing those who get in your way. It means trampling on the weak. It means betraying a powerful demon once they have their back turned. Are you telling me that someone as pure as you would be able to become a successful demon?"
Kokichi kept a neutral expression. A battle of wits had begun but the Supreme Leader knew that he just needed to keep speaking calmly and he would win. For the few minutes he was with Prism, Kokichi had an idea how to manipulate him and get the information he needed. There was always a catch to these sorts of deals. The last thing he wanted was for Prism to secretly be Monokuma or even the Mastermind.
"Pure? I think you should pull out a dictionary. My picture wouldn't be there for you to see," Kokichi snarked. "Besides, I think you're underestimating me. If you know enough about me to revive me like you said, why do you think I would join forces with you? You honestly think I'm the type to side with the strongest?"
"Actually…" Prism opened his mouth but closed it. He almost fell into Kokichi's trap but had a rebuttal of his own. "Don't misunderstand. From my observation, I assumed you ass-kissed Monokuma to be on his good side. You had good intentions but being in a killing game where it is easy to manipulate your opponents is different from manipulating demons without brains. Demons kill without reason. They pillage without fear of consequence. They conquer those without showing a shred of sympathy. Do you want to become the very thing you tried to avoid while you were alive?"
"I don't mind the gamble," Kokichi answered honestly. He smirked seeing Prism's expression darken. "It's either I become a slave to a little boy who could very well be involved with the Mastermind or I get kicked out of this place and become a demon. That's assuming you have the powers to do so."
"What can you possibly gain from becoming a demon? You will have everything you want as a Sorcerer of the Golden Land. Hell, I can give you the title, "The Supreme Sorcerer."
As much of a tempting offer it was, Kokichi knew better. Prism listed more cons for being a demon because it was the option he didn't want the Supreme Leader to choose. In contrast, he refused to give enough details about what being a sorcerer of the Golden Land entailed. From the sound of things, he wouldn't be able to leave this place without supervision or a bodyguard. That sounded as suffocating as being stuck in a school with no hopes of escaping.
While being a demon might go against my morale, I refuse to be a captive. Kokichi thought grimly to himself. Being a demon implied that while he would have to live in a kill-or-be-killed world, he could gain power beyond his imagination if he worked hard. He still had to fulfill a contract with Prism but the moment he did, he could do whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. A part of him wanted to take the powers of a demon and return to his world…wherever it was…assuming that the Supreme Leader was being told the truth in the first place.
"Sorry, but I don't trust other liars," Kokichi hummed. "You may think you're slick but you have no idea how to make a deal with the liar of all liars."
Prism's cheeks turned red in frustration. Kokichi pretty much had this won now.
"Oh, I see how it is…" Prism muttered. "Honestly, why did I give you a second chance at life?"
"I wonder that too," Kokichi said with a smile. "Maybe you fell in love with me. Oh, how shameful~."
"Flattery gets you everywhere…" Prism hissed. "If being a demon is so important to you, then I have no choice but to release you into the Netherworld."
"Good-good! I'll need a weapon, a powerful spell book, a castle, food, some amazing new clothes…" Kokichi intentionally started to list stuff off but Prism interrupted him.
"You will have to get everything on your own," Prism hissed. "That is the consequence of becoming a demon."
"Huh? You're not going to get me an overlord starter kit? I thought we were friends…"
Kokichi looked ready to cry when Prism denied him help. Prism wasn't having that.
"We're not friends now that you decided not to become a sorcerer of the Golden Land."
The fake tears were gone in almost an instant.
"Sheesh, you're not making things easy for me."
"Everything is now your fault!" Prism declared causing Chester to snicker.
"Oh, Prism is throwing a temper tantrum again because he didn't get what he wanted again," the catboy purred. "Don't worry too much. Even if Prism won't help, us Furniture can give you some items to start your journey."
"No! No! No! He gets no help from me!" Prism shouted. "This conversation is over!"
Chester shook his head. He was still smiling. "So tell me, Kokichi, why would you deny the chance to become a powerful individual in the universe? What drives you to become a demon and continue being hated? Don't you want the privilege my master bestows to you?"
"No," Kokichi answered truthfully. "Dying was painful. Having everything I want sounds nice…but…I have no intention of being chained down."
"You wouldn't…" Prism grumbled.
"…Prism, is it?" Kokichi started, "Might I ask what happened to the other students who have died? Where are they now? If you revived me…surely…you can revive the rest of them?"
"I can. Except for one," Prism admitted. "That guy got his soul erased. I never expected that these people were capable of doing such a thing…then again…I feel like a demon was involved…"
Now that caught Kokichi's attention. "What's that? A demon? You're joshing, right?"
"Your universe always had strange things happening. Stranger than fiction," said Prism. "I only felt the presence of a demon recently there. I even think he is manipulating the killing game…" Prism thought about something before he had another idea. "How about we strike a deal instead?"
"I won't become a sorcerer."
"No, it's not that. I will give you a weapon to protect yourself, send you to a Netherworld that is perfect to train yourself into becoming a powerful overlord and finally revive one of your dead friends as a demon to protect you. With your small body, there are limitations to what demon I could make you."
Now Kokichi had something to worry about. Physically, he wouldn't be strong so he would need a bodyguard to back him up. It sounded too good to be true…
"It can…be anyone?"
"I can't revive the one who had his soul erased in his execution nor the robot who self-destructed. I refuse to revive the Mastermind of the game unless I have a good reason. Anyone else is fair game…however…" Prism's expression changed to something wicked. "Even if you have someone as an ally, this one in particular will maintain the memories they have of you. I can't imagine what would happen if you choose someone who wanted your dead body."
That limited the amount of people Kokichi could revive. Originally, Kokichi had Gonta in mind to be his bodyguard. The problem was his own guilt. He got Gonta killed and he didn't have the right to revive him for his own selfish reasons. The second person was Kaito. They had made amends, but if the Supreme Leader had him revived with all of his memories, what's to stop Kaito from doing something stupid. Hell, Kaito would be dumb enough to go back to their world without him as a demon and be killed again.
"No worries. I already have someone in mind," Kokichi hummed as he placed his arms behind his back. "The question is do I get to choose what demon he can be?"
"No. I do," Prism answered.
"Actually, it's randomized," Chester corrected. "What you will be when you leave the Golden Land was chosen by Prism. Anyone else is random if he's doing it in such a short amount of time."
"Fuck off, you pussy cat…" Prism grumbled. "Anyway, who do you got? You want that big dumb dude or the handsome astronaut? Oh! Maybe you actually want that pianist! Oh, she would be a sexy demon!"
"Rantaro Amami."
The blond was clearly confused. "Huh?!"
"Well, the one person I would love to be my slave is still alive," Kokichi told him. "I don't want a dumbass as my loyal follower. So I'll get someone who is intelligent and reliable at the very least."
"I see…"
"Plus…" Kokichi's expression darkened. "As a demon…I should be able to return to my world in the future?"
"You can…assuming you train yourself to do so," Prism explained. "Relax. I made you a demon that takes advantage of your intelligence. A high intelligence means you can learn any magic spell with dedication. You can do whatever you want when you get to that point. However…" Prism's expression caused Kokichi to jump back. He wasn't used to being the one jump-scare. "You have to strike a deal with me if you don't want to end up dead."
"U-Uh…okay…"
Kokichi wondered if he sounded nervous. He hoped he didn't look nervous.
"If you're insistent on being an overlord, then you better make that Netherworld I send you to be the most amazing place in the universe. If I'm not impressed, I'll probably just kill you for wasting my time."
"…Is that really it?"
"Yes."
Kokichi was certain Prism was ninety-five percent honest and five percent lying. The part where he was lying had to do with his body. He was certain it would be used to bite him in the ass.
"I'm not like those demons who will trick you into believing one thing and then when you're close, I take it all away. I will never do that," Prism affirmed. "Impress and entertain me and you'll get to do whatever you want with your new life."
Prism made it clear that if Kokichi rejected this, he would change his mind. If Kokichi had a death wish, he would do just that. However…
"…What about this? I'll entertain you. However, if I fulfill more requests that do not include me having to join forces with you, will you revive the other students that died?"
This caught Prism off guard. "Oh? I thought you didn't care."
"I don't," Kokichi lied. "I just want more servants. Plus, if I work hard and get Akamatsu-chan on my side, Saihara-chan will surely run back to me!"
There was a half-truth there. Kokichi needed time to prepare himself mentally to seeing Shuichi again. The one thing he desired was to show him that he was alive and play it off like he didn't die. That way, the detective wouldn't feel bad for the things he said.
"All is fair in love and war, they say," Prism hummed. He broke out into a cute smile before he started giggling. "Ha ha ha…I think maybe…this will be more interesting than I thought. Okay! I'm going to send you off!"
Kokichi's body started to glow. He flinched at the sudden heat taking over his body. He groaned in pain as he found himself on his knees. The Supreme Leader clutched his stomach in pain, unsure why the pain was there. The other areas that hurt the most were the top of his head, his ears, his rear and in between his thighs.
"You're just turning into a demon now," Prism explained. "It will feel weird, but I reassure you that you won't feel pain once you leave."
"…Liar…" Kokichi growled. "You had every intention…of making this…hurt…owwwww!"
Prism waved as Kokichi's body started disappearing. Soon, he would no longer be in the room. Only golden butterflies would flutter where his body originally was.
"Which Netherworld are you taking him to?" Chester had to ask.
"That one Netherworld on the brink of demise," Prism answered. "It's a great place to start building up his reputation. Besides…" Prism's expression changed to something more serious. "…If my suspicion is correct…there is a demon involved with the latest killing game. No one is allowed to interfere with that world…no one. That is why I will use this boy's selfishness to see if a demon is involved…and if that's true…that demon is dead meat."
Me: Done with 6449 words. Notes!
1. If this scenario feels identical to The Devil's Thrill fic with how Prism handles Valvatorez, it is intentional since Prism handles people with second chances in similar ways. Kokichi is a different case since he has not insulted him in any way yet. And the Disgaea tag is from the fact that Prism is mainly used as a Disgaea OC (more than a Kid Icarus OC).
2. I do have some of my own headcanons that might contradict with V3. The idea I had in mind was because the Mastermind lied about many things, it's easy to take apart what is real and what isn't. So the things I have are…
I. The audition videos are real but not all the students have one. Kokichi does not have one because I believe someone who is against killing wouldn't even think of auditioning for Dangan Ronpa. Which leads to the next thing…
II. The kidnapping scene at the beginning of the game. While I do think Kaede and Shuichi auditioned willingly, I feel like Kaede would change her mind and get kidnapped. In contrast, I think Saihara lied about being taken away seeing as how his video shows he really wanted to be part of the killing game.
III. Since it's a reality show, people do in fact die and a large amount of money is used for the executions.
IV. I believe that Dangan Ronpa 1 and 2 did happen. However, I set V3 100 years in the future to where something like this wouldn't even happen. Think about it, Ultimate students give the world hope that won over despair. You think that this would take place after 3? You would think people from the previous game would stop it. I don't believe, 1, 2 and 3 are part of the seasons mentioned because there is a lot of contradicting evidence. It's easy for me to think that while Shirogane cannot cosplay as another person, if the event happened in the past and is considered "history" it no longer counts as a real person. After all, people dress up as famous people from the past and some people can be labeled as fiction (mythology comes to mind).
V. If all Ki-bo had to do was destroy the facility and allow the survivors to escape, I believe that the world is actually normal but is currently corrupted if so many teenagers are watching a reality show about killing. I believe Team Dangan Ronpa pretty much is on top of the world ignoring the damage done in the past. I also believe that it was not planned for Dangan Ronpa to end if they're making so much money. This is why I believe in this story I can address the consequence of the survivors escaping and exposing the world to the issue. I mean, a rich person who had no problem killing teenagers for money (along with kidnapping, changing their personalities and removing their memories), what would stop him from trying to go after the survivors in order to keep their mouths shut? I think this is what happened to Amami in particular given how he got thrown back into the game.
3. Pay attention to Prism's wording of gifts he bestowed. Becoming demons with powers is the tip of the iceberg but Prism is a troll like Kokichi (but is actually malicious), so one of his gifts will be a negative. Knowing me, you know it will be something fanservice related. (I mean, don't you think it's odd that his inner thighs are burning up but all the areas listed are locations where demon parts would normally appear?) Guess which demon Kokichi will become. It's something common but not too obvious.
That's it. Reviews are appreciated. Ja ne!
