Chapter 2 Power leveling

Year 3 Month 0

I'm three years old today, it's like a happy day or whatever, apparently...

I'm being told so anyhow, my parents has long since figured out I can both understand and talk with them.

I know this because when I was finally able to keep my fire floating around for 4 hours, they came to talk to me about how it's not right to set rooms on fire in the summer.

Apparently they had already moved me to the courtyard of their mansion and somehow I didn't notice.

I mean I should have, but maybe I was asleep or something when they moved me... The place did look a little different, and didn't set on fire as easily.

I may or may not have given into my pyromaniac tendencies once or twice, disguising my intentional fire setting along with all of my unintentional fire setting...

Anyhow they came to talk to me, and was all like please keep the fire setting to a minimum and what not.

So now I have set periods during the day where I can practice, and at a special location where all my other family members practice their abilities.

Which of course means I have a lot of free time, which my mother seems to be keen on monopolizing.

Spending time with mother is great, however it means I can't practice ANY other magics, and also can't just blow myself up while she carries me.

Today However I am meeting other people who are about my age or something, I'd tell you I can't remember, but that would now be actually impossible.

My brain now works something like a supercomputer, and is capable of processing things in an instant.

This also migrated the disadvantage of the flipped vision, and made it much easier for me to gain back my motor skills each time.

Now it's more like morning vertigo rather than not being able to move right, the brain now adjusts the body at an unbelievably rate, which also enhances my power of imagination.

Turns out brain magic is also bullshit, and this particular type of bullshit is what I plan to use as my bedrock for the rest of my abilities.

This is almost exclusively unique to me, as far as I can tell... Reincarnation bullshit is the only reason my brain is able to even change, after deconstruction.

Which means that if anyone else in my family blew their brains up, they might not die, but they will definitely not become stronger for it, and will probably lose all their memories, since I'm guessing that the memories are more than likely hardwired into my soul rather than brain.

I should probably be fine...

I cruised through the day ignoring the kids there, they probably thought I was a freak or something, or maybe just that I was a prick... it would most likely be true haha.

I didn't know or care, so pulling a Shikamaru, I spend the entire afternoon looking at clouds.

While relaxing, an idea came to me: if my brain is a supercomputer what about multiple cores?

The power of imagination works in that I need to focus on one thing, but if i can focus on more than one, would the sum of the parts not make bigger picture a greater monstrocity?

Food for thought...

Year 4 Month 8

I did it, this is possibly the greatest improvement I had in my 4 and half years here.

The possibility of multiple cores was too great a temptation, but since I was art majored back in the human world, I had no real way to know what to do.

So I thought of another way: Cell division.

By dividing my "consciousness" I can focus on doing one thing only, with BOTH "consciousnesses".

A good example is writing with both left and right hand, by having two "minds" I can focus on using each easily, and write complete different things and have complete two different sets of thought processes.

Now with two it would be hard to combine the hands into working in tangent if we are focusing on the independently, however cell division works expenitionally. This ability for sure would not work for other people.

How did it turn out?

I was extremely lucky to be alive after doing such dumb shit...

Turns out my sense of self IS concentrated in my soul, which means my brain is more like a tool than "ME" for a lack of a better word.

Because this is true, I have my emotions and sense of self in a higher dimension which is my soul, and retain my sense of self that way.

I fear that if this was not true, my consciousness would have either split and I would have broken down, or it would have copied itself somehow and I would essentially created a clone of myself, inside my own head, fighting for control of the whole.

Now if there was only two of me, that would be fine, but the reason this ability would not work for anyone else is because there's not two "brains".

Cell division is sadly extremely fast and automatic, therefore after deconstructing my brain to make this change, when I woke up there was already 512 "brains" in my body.

This is a HUGE powerup to my power of imagination, as I am not able to use them for singular tasks, and assigning only one "brain" as my main thinking processing tool, while other are more for micro management.

Having multiple supercomputers means I can now both exclude the magic ability to hide my demonic power and use the demonic power to deconstruct my muscles and become stronger.

I think it's about time to make the big change in my body, and try for the superman effect.

The theory is making each cell in my body a nuclear generator, and using my demonic energy as catalase creating more energy for the cells which will strengthen my physique to its near maximum power, after that all i need to work on is bettering the efficiency of my cells!

This is something to work on after tonight.

Year 4 Month 8 (plus 8 days)

Alright I fucked the pooch on this one.

As it turns out, nuclear powered generators react very badly when done wrong.

In the beginning it was all fun and dandy, I did the usually testing and hypothesis on how it would work, and worked on only one cell.

It worked well, nothing went wrong at all.

However when I tried to turn multiple cells in my body into the nuclear power ones (I'm gonna call then supercells for superman cells) they started feeding of each other for energy, which in turn created more energy, until they can't hold the amount of power produced, and exploded.

The blast took my ENTIRE ARM! As in like, the whole thing.

Lucky i redirected it, so I manage to survive with just a torn off arm.

Unlucky, the blast was loud enough to wake up everyone in the massion and took an entire left wing of our place.

If not for my reputation of burning shit up, we might have lost quite a few of our servants.

As it is, some of the stronger more capable servants that were assigned to me were injured in the who fiasco.

So I ended up with bad, very bad, and horrific news.

Bad news is that the experiment was a failure, but I can make it work with some more thought or whatnot.

Very bad news is that my family pried what happened out of me, a little hard to explain why half my personal servants were injured and I am missing an arm, which is taking its sweet time healing.

Horrific news is I am now BANNED from making modifications to my body in order to strengthen myself.

My mother now has me on constant watch, and I am alone exactly zero percent of the time.

Making adjustments to strengthen my body can still be done, since the combination of hiding my magic power and using it to strengthen my body is almost impossible to track, but there is now NO way for me to continue my experiment in order to strengthen my physical body and turning it all into supercells.

I need to think about my next steps, because suddenly this has just gotten a lot more complicated.

Year 4 Month 12

It's been more than 4 month since the accident, and the guard my mother has assigned my has not calmed down yet... Upsetting I know.

Since modifications they can't tell are happening is not really "banned", I been able to work on my brain cells a little more, turning 512 "brains" into what is now nearly countless number of "brains".

I have turned these "brains" into something akin to an artificial neural network.

Having billions of tiny little brains work together to form a bigger picture is actually brilliant.

I've set them into a sort of tier format, in which my consciousness wants something, it tells the "brains" in charge of assignment, call them generals

who then sends it to the "brains" in charge of breaking down the problem into smaller more singular problems, or the think-tank

who then assigns the number of brains who is needed for each task, and sending those back to the generals

who then assign the correct number of brains who have those specializations or managers to concentrate on the problem.

This seems all very complicated so let's give an example.

For instance, I wish to summon a beam of rainbow kittens at my enemy and burn their faces off, and I also wants the kittens to be homing towards whoever I'm firing at.

Well the General brain will send it to the Thinktank brain who says ok, we got to have one brain focusing on creating the beams that can blow people's faces off.

Then we need one brain that shapes those beams into kitten shape, and one more to change the colour of the cats to rainbow

or maybe several depending on if you want each cat rainbow to look like unique.

THEN we need as many brains as there is cats, in order to path each cats path correctly and making sure each cat is pathed differently

and one MORE brain to coordinate the homing cat brains in order to not hit each other.

Depending on how many cat lazors you need, this could take up to a dozen brains to perform.

Well the general takes the information, and sends it and the relating information with an simple order:

1 power, 2 design, and assuming there is 8 cat lazors you want, 8 target and 1 coordinator.

He sends the the power, design, target and coordination manager brains respectively and those managers will assign roles to each of their controlled "team".

It's really just the division of labour inside my head, explained in this very simple situation.

In the real world, to breakdown what I want would need several tiers of thinktank to break down the order and several managers working in tangent in order to ensure the parts don't come together into a hot mess.

With the lack of emotional input (cause that's me) and difference in option (cause they're all me) there is almost never any confusion about what I want and don't want, and what the finished product looks like.

I have also thought of a few solutions to solve both my babysitter problem and my blowing up cause of supercells problem.

Year 5 Month 9

By this time I have created structural analysis, which I used to scan my body to try and fix my supercell problem.

It didn't work.

What it did do was find a way to create clones.

It took 6 month to figure out how to do a clone, and another month to get enough materials into my room in order to make a real life clone.

The clone is connected to my body through one of my brains.

Think of a puppet technique where you need 100% concentration, and essentially YOU are the puppet, but since your entirety is within the puppet you lose the ability to move your real body.

Well it's nothing like that.

What? I have literally BILLIONS of processors why the hell would losing one of them bother me?

It is fine for most things, but I wouldn't use it to try to trick mother… I have a feeling she'd see through me in an instant.

Finally I can began to turn my cells into supercells.

The way I got across the problem is to create a sort of barrier around each cell, a demonic membrane of sorts that protects the cells from themselves and each other.

I used the battery within the cells to power the membrane, but at first I needed to supply the constant flow of demonic energy to keep the membrane going.

However after the supercells slowly formed, I was able to wane off my contribution of my own personal demonic energy. The membrane however does provide me with another layer of defence.

Maybe after I change my entire body into supercells, I will upgrade the membrane, make it tougher, against both physical and magical attacks.

Right now I don't really have a solution for if I blow my arm apart punching something, but was gonna use the adaptive damage strengthen (that's what I'm calling destroying my cells and rebuilding it stronger from now on) to toughen up my cells.

This works better, besides another layer of protection will likely keep me alive longer.

Year 5 Month 12

So a few things:

I found a way to increase my magic powers, and a new way to use my flames.

The Supercell project is a constant and slow thing, and will probably take a few years to complete finish, but that is pretty much the apex of my physical powers unless I learn senjutsu.

But I was still just "normal" in my ranged attacks.

So my thought process was this.

As the phenex you are the master of flames right?

Well I found a way to spit out flames when I was a toddler, but just WHAT is flames? What is fire?

Is it not just heat? So if I was the master of FIRE, should I not be the master of heat also?

I can dish it out, so I should also be able to TAKE it, right? RIGHT?

...

Turns out I was right, or maybe because I thought I was right, and the bullshit devil magic system included it into my magic ariseal.

I send my senses into the air to feel for the "magic" and "heat".

After 2 month of focusing on the ability with my conscious brain, I was able to "sense" it.

What I managed to do, was to absorb the heat in the air and absorb that heat as demonic energy and buffing my reserves, using structure analysis and massive amounts of demonic energy, I remodel my "demonic core" and slowly enlarge the total amount of demonic energy within me.

This process of course has downside, which is that it costs demonic energy to use, however depending how much heat I choose to absorb a particular place, I almost always increase the total amount of demonic energy within my body.

BUT I can also choose to absorb so much heat from an area, at the cost of spending MORE demonic energy than I absorb, I freeze the location I absorb the energy from.

It's almost like ice magic… except this is not really magic.

The Actual magic usage is an absorption type magic, as such you can't really defend against it with resist magic barriers since I'm not actually ATTACKING per say.

Merely changing the environment, unlike Serafalls magic, I don't encase you in an iceberg, but turn the surrounding so cold, you'd just freeze to death all on your own.

The idea is kind of like moving a mass of earth above the air, it's not the rocks that kill you, it's actually the gravity and the weight of the object, since the mass is not magical in property, you can't really treat it like a spell, but more like you would a punch or something.

I will continue to practice using this type of magic, however I feel like will soon be strong enough to search for my would be teacher Sun Wukong. Maybe I will bring it up to my parents on my birthday?

Year 6 Month 1

My parents said no. I guess I should have expected this, but apparently I'm not old enough to go on a journey. BLA.

Year 6 Month 4

Canon officially begins, Rias was born today. Nothing I did changed Canon so far, and my engagement to her has been set up.

On a completely different note, I asked my parents to allow me to test for evil pieces.

They are going to think about it. When I receive the evil pieces, I can use that as an excuse to leave the house and search for my "peerage".

I made my spell for clairvoyance. It won't be enough to find Sun Wukong if he doesn't want to be found, but I'm hoping a 6 year old looking for him will be interesting enough that he meets with me.

Year 7 Month 1

My parents have agreed on having me test for top class devil. Ok 7 years old not bad. I can finally search for Sun Wukong after this hahaha.

The ceremony is not very hard, since I choose the demonic energy route.

Just put my hand down on the stone, and I was good, they don't really seem to care about you combat ability, maybe that's only for reincarnated devils.

Some of the other people promoting with me, didn't even get tested for anything.

I think "high class devil" is more of a rank than a power level, and the only reason I was tested to see if I fit the bill was because I was too young, or maybe my parents requested a test?

It doesn't really matter, since it was an easy test, I pressed my hand onto the obelisk and gained my 15 evil pieces. Nice.

They say 1 in 10 devils gains a mutation piece for their evil pieces.

But this HAS to either have something to do with the soul of the devil, (reincarnation bullshit) or is based entirely on your strength when you get your pieces (supercells op) but I ended up with mutation pieces, 2 bishop to be exact.

Honestly it's a little crazy, but because of the abnormal situation I managed to meet Sirzechs Gremory or better known as lucifer.

He was… interesting to say the least.

A lot more happy go lucky than I would expect from a man who is supposed to be leading an entire race, but who am I to complain?

He said some pleasantries and left.

I also met with my fiance and her parents and the finance herself!

She's so god damn small, I had one of those aww moments before I caught myself. Weird how I almost lost control of my emotions there, but I guess babies get to me.
