Hi!
Rick: Hi!

Rick: Good, you piece of shit! And You?
Ahahah I am pretty fine, you Maso-bitch!
Rick: ...

Rick: ...

Rick: YOU FUCKING FOX, THE HELL'S YOUR PROBLEM?! WHAT'S UP WITH THIS NAME! [Masochism], like, SERIOUSLY?! YOU HAVE A PROBLEM MAN!
MUAHAHAHA YOUR TEARS ARE MY POWER! And it's not even done yet, you insulted me, now you will pay... but worry not! For I, The Misecordious Fox-sama, will still betow you power accordingly to your actions. I will just make it more... interesting...
Rick: Your concept of interesting is bugged! Your brain is bugged! Heck, your very existence is bug-
HERE COME CHAP 3!
Rick: AH, wai-!
Chapter 3: The Best Skill!
In a world of never-ending darkness.
Where the souls come, pass, then return.
In this world devoid of anything.
One figure stood.
No, this is incorrect, as there is nor ground nor sky, nothing stand nor move.
But only this figure seemed to bypass this impossibility.
The reason?
The figure was the Master of this space.
And at this point in time, it continues to do its work, since the Starts and the Ends.
At this moment the figure thought of its... and its counterpart... little experiment.
I should take a look...
The figure used its power to gaze at a certain individual... who was actually balls-crushing another human.
The figure gazed briefly at the scene, as it had no interest in human quarrels, and took a look at the experiment state-
The figure froze.
Domain of 'Good Damage' holder
The figure blinked.
It, then, tried to clean the nonexistent dust on its eyes, yet...
What it saw didn't disappear. In fact, it was even clearer than before.
It had to accept it.
This human obtained a Domain.
He obtained a concept made truth.
...It has only been one day since they send him, right?
Right?
Yet, this human, gained a proof of divinity in this short time?
A day?
24 hours?
1440 minutes?
In 86400 seconds?
While other deities take at least 200 years? The human did it in one fuck*ng day?
Are you fuck*ng serious?
For the second time since she took charge of this human, the figure felt something, rushing out.
"WHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTT!?"
It screamed.
Along with it, the world trembled.
They may have made a mistake...
A guy wakes u-
No seriously that needs to stop.
Ok, let's make a quick recap of the situation.
I'm a transdimensional being who is now in an unknown universe. I don't have any identification papers, nor a lot of bucks (Yen) nor even a crib or something. Heck I don't even know the local language! But the worse is... I have literally nothing. If my Gamer system took in every basic necessity I wouldn't care but it doesn't... well, it does but I still feel the need to, so it doesn't , OK?!
Anyways, what I need immediately are food and toilet paper... I can sh*t in the wild but I won't use leafs, I ain't a savage you piece of garbages! About clothes... it's good, three nice people kindly gave away their biker clothes for me. Leaving them in their underwear, in a back alley.
Aren't I nice? I didn't take their underwear you know! If it was a female biker, I don't know... but male's are out.
So, yeah, the food problem. Using my new best friend, [Observe], I found a small store that is now closed. I didn't choose the ones that are open 24/7 because I don't want to get found out and I only have 5 500 Yen, which is about 50$. I want some stocks, so 50$ isn't enough.
So here I am, in front of a closed store.
But how to go in?
Scrolling to an alley even more devoid of people and looking everywhere to see if I'm followed... no, you know what? I won't take any chance.
Opening the big garbage can next to me... I entered it... and closed the top...
It smells.
It's embarrassing.
But it's not stupid.
+1 INT
Hm? Thought I would get a point in MND for this one.
"Create ID - Void."
How to go in? Easy.
Through the door.
*BAM*
"And that's how you break through, ladies and gentlemen. Infinite 9mm bullets and ID to block the noises! Tutorial 'How to be thieves', from your dearly, Rick."
Looking at the now open-for-taking store, I could see fruits, vegetables, some common instant ramens and others basic necessity. All of it just for me!
I smirked.
This is too easy.
And I was right... it was too easy.
Non-items cannot be stored nor taken out of ID.
"...Fuc*."
This prompt appeared when I tried to store some fruits in my inventory, and everything else, really. I, then, tried to [Observe] them. Tried, being the key word here.
[Observe] impossible!
Then I realized.
I'm an idiot.
This world is still technically an illusion, meaning that everything here isn't real, they are fake. I could argue there's nothing that says a fake can't rival with the real thing... but I'm not the Faker and we're in DxD, not the Nasuverse. F*ck me.
"Cameras... there isn't any. Or at least I don't see any obvious one."
Taking out one of the bikers' shirt, I made a quick ninja-like mask which I remember how, thanks to our Lord and Savior, WikiHow dot com. It was sh*t but I got a (Disguised) status, so it's good.
Lastly, I placed myself under a table, hidden from other. Wouldn't it be ironic if I poofed in existence in front of someone after everything I did?
"Destroy ID."
The world shattered.
There was no-one there.
This time [Observe] worked. I may be a bastard but I won't kill an innocent business if I don't need to, just taking some of your properties for... an undetermined time.
By repeating the act of stealing, [Thievery] skill has been created.
"That's the most unoriginal line I saw until now. By stealing you get the skill of thiefs. Did you run out of idea already? Are you bored? Plus what I do isn't stealing, it's community help for myself."
Then... something appeared.
sTà0è8")337§£*&²d4g2/+_8^à)"ùl*g,?nc
"DAMNIT NOT AGAIN!"
New special skill created by the effect of {Untouchable} title.
Records of individual (Rick) concept of 'Steal', collect in progress...
Records collected.
Insufficient Records to new Domain creation.
Creation special skill to collect complementary records, acknowledged.
Special skill [Steal] have been created!
"...somehow, I'm tired."
My mental power is starting to break... who I'm kidding? It's already broken!
My food problem is now somehow resolved, so now...
"Time to hit the library."
What? I am a man of culture as well. Especially if it gets me free skills... and possibly INT points.
My new thievery skill leveled only by 1, by the way.
"I love you [Observe]."
Municipal Library:
A place with lots and lots of books. From pictures book, to Robert Ramirez Willmoras' books. Who is that? Exactly.
Using the same method as before and destroying the door with infinite bullets... books.
Books everywhere. You see Betty's library? The blonde loli with pupils in the form of motherfucki*g butterflies, that one? Well it's bigger, and worst of all.
There are cameras.
"Fuck22."
I took in mind every cameras I could see and located the place where they don't reach... which wasn't a lot. I also saw some suspicious places where mods could stay put. Taking a higher place to survey everything and be out of the eyes of cameras. I shattered the ID...
Before quickly creating another.
This is a library, right?
A place to read, right?
Then why...
WHY IS THERE MORE THEM TEN GUARDS PATROLING AROUND?!
No, more like, why is there a need for guards anyways?
New quest added.
Super Normal Library (Difficulty D {Easy peachy})
In your search for knowledge and porn, you found an oddly well-guarded library. What could possibly be there? You don't know... yet.
Main Objective:
-Get minimum 10 books (0/10)
-Found the ?
Bonus Objective:
-Stay [Disguised] (Possible new title, +50 EXP)
-?
Reward:
+50 EXP, +1000 Yen
Failure:
Decrease Reputation with ? and Devil Faction.
Jail or possible Death.
I read the new quest and quickly accepted it. In any case I was going to do that. With this, however, I got the info that whatever is hidden here have something to do with the Devils. Magic Books perhaps? That could be good. In any case, my main objective is getting 10 books, it doesn't say skill books so it's easy, the last is to found whatever is hidden here.
"Ok, let's do this."
I spat a big snot in my hand before shattering the ID just next to a camera. Using my snoted hand, I slammed the Grimer Pokemon on the camera's eye. Try to see through this. Disappearing in another ID, I repeated the action for two other cameras.
This will let me have some space to work with. During my shorts ID Create and Destroy. I spotted the language section of the library. There is no guard here, easy.
Shattering the ID just in front of the shelf, I rammed my hand through the books while opening my inventory.
If there weren't any guards around, I would have laughed.
[Thievery] level up!
By hiding your presence around others you created the [Stealth] skill!
[Stealth] level up!
[Stealth] level up!
-Get minimum 10 books (9/10)
New knowledges entered my mind...
Ah.
Why I'm staying in the open? I could just go in a stock area in the back, where nobody could find me... woah, skills ARE useful.
Quickly falling in a new ID. I made my way to a random door that I assume is for the staff, if the 'Staff Only' is any indication. Wonder why it's in English instead of Japanese, though... Mondialisation bulsh*t, I guess?
Now, there is a door in my way.
What to do?
"Falcooooooooo- KICK!"
The door opened... with a loud *BOM*, but it opened.
There was a corridor with some box around. Cameras... none. Hiding behind a box, I shattered the ID and prepared to jump in another. There wasn't anyone, the light was out, too easy.
Although, I think I could win against these guards, I won't take any unnecessary risque. They are human, so a bullet in the head and it's done, sure it would be easy but it's stupid and I don't want to ki- Nah, I just want to train my stealth a bit.
In the box were... books.
How surprising.
I took the box. Interesting point is, the box was considered 1 item, clicking on it I could see a list of book names. I took 4 others box full of books. Continuing on my community recycling, which isn't in any case stealing nop, I saw another long corridor...
A dark and long corridor...
A scary corridor...
I...I-I don't want to go there...L-Let's go back.
Agreeing with my thoughts, I turned back and started going bac-
Wait, what?
Did I...Did I just get scared?
Me?
Rick?
...
...
Something's wrong.
Turning around again, I started walking toward the dark corridor. The its-scary-run-for-your-life feeling intensified with each step...
Which is exactly why I continued.
As if answering to my desire, my mind calmed down, the feeling disappeared but I could still feel something trying to make me leave, something else pushing it away.
The [Gamer]'s mental defense, I realized.
Something is definitely wrong here.
At the end of the corridor was... well... a big door with black like talismans around the edges, runes like inscriptions on the door itself, a big feeling of 'FUCK OFF' pulsing from the door?
"If that isn't fucki*g ominous. [Observe]."
Compulsion Enchanted Door:
This door has been enchanted with different ways to force any human to go elsewhere. The compulsion has minus effect against non-human and individual with a lot of magical powers. Made by a Devil.
So it really had something to do with the Devils.

So now, if I fail, I'm dead.
Lovely.
Should I escape now?
...
...
Nah~
I approached the door and tried to push it. It won't budge. I tried harder. It doesn't work.
"Nugugugu...NUHHHHHHHH."
I tried harder, as if I was constipated, still don't work. Weird, It worked for Goki... and Vegeti...and Gohani...and why do I end their name with a 'i'? No idea. HEY, IT RHYMES!
I fall in an ID and tried to break the door... it broke.
"SON OF A-!"
Well, my foot did.
So this door is hard, now I know that.
TUTORIAL TO BE A GOOD THIEF NUMBER 2!
If the door won't budge... try the wall!
After a lot of pewpew against the wall.
I finally could step in... just to be a jerk I opened the door from inside. Since it's an ID, it was completely useless but... yeah.
This is an office, I think, there is a desk with some books on the shelf and some documents on the desk. No cameras.
I dropped the ID and... there was someone.
The first person who I saw with a title.
[Occult Fanatic]
Naruyuki Gonda
LvL 11
The guy was writing something on the desk and grumbling something under his breath. Since the desk was in front of the wall with the chair, he couldn't see me. Slowing down my breathing so he wouldn't notice me, I almost thought of getting out before-
[Stealth] level up!
"..."
Time to grind.
Just to be sure, I muttered under my breath 'Stealth', to be sure it was activated. Dropping low and slowing my breath even more, my mind became...distant. I don't know how to say it. It was like I wasn't thinking of anything but still could think, it was weird. I felt...empty.
I also felt like the MC in Dishonored.
Yeah, that too.
I observed my new friend.

Background: A unlucky and bored man. 2 years ago he summoned the Devil, Sona Sitri, by using a sheet left on purpose by says Devil in the library. He, since then, research the occult at the price of his health.
Interesting.
I guess the barrier was made by Sona herself than, he is weakened though, and his MP have decreased so I guess he can use magic or something similar. In any case, I'm physically stronger and have the advantage in this small place.
While I read his info I continued to... borrow, the books on the shelves. There wasn't a lot, I guess he only took what looked occult and didn't find too much.
When I was done with that.
I approached the man from behind.
I was now just behind him but he still didn't notice me.
I smirked.
I raised my hand, taking the shape of a knife I-
"NINJA!"
"Whu-?!"
*BAM*
The man dropped on his desk.

"..."
Oh yes, papa like that.
"Yes."
Error - Need 30 INT, 50 MND & 10 MAG
"FU*K YOU!"
What is this? Appealing to me with this skill but giving me these high spec requirement... I may have [Masochism] but I don't like it one bit!
Sighing, I placed it in my inventory.
I looked at the guy still stunned in front of me. My heart desire revenge.
"It's all your fault. Now you will pay..."
At this moment...
I stripped him.
...
I took off all his clothes and placed them in my inventory.
Of course, I didn't take his underwear.
I don't want to die yet from my own vomit, yet.
"Adios, NINJA!"
With a manual skill activation, I disappeared in an ID.

What an uneventful night, right?
...
Yes, I need a full upfront war against all factions to consider my night eventful.
No, I'm not crazy and no my name isn't Kokabiel nor Orochimaru, I'm Rick.
...
Ok so now I have food, books for grinding INT, I can get money using IDs sooo...I just need a house to sleep in... which is easily resolved with an ID.
Wao.
IDs are great.
I wanna hit the bed but first let's see my book collection.
I'm gonna get so many skills.
"MuahahaHAHAHAHAHAHA-!"
"...not...not...not...not, notNOTNOTNOTNOT- FU*K!"
Here I am, trying to find a gaeadamn skill book!
What the fu*k?!
68 books.
I got 68 freaking books and you tell me there isn't a single one which give a skill?
Are you kidding me?
Skill Books are, by essence, rare. They need to be either very informative or magical book to be considered Skill Books. So finding one in an ordinary library, while possible, isn't common.
Thanks, Aqua. You really know how to relieve my stress. Do you have a gag reflex so I can relieve another certain part of my body?
I do not quite understand?
Nevermind, snake's joke.
Well, actually no, there is Skill Books. 6 book let me learn them, however, only 3 teaches different skill. The other three teaches the same skill.
Here is what I can learn.
[Blacksmith], [Language] and [Flash Magic].
The last one was from the occult guys I ninjed out. This time, I could learn it.
Let's see all our newly acquired skills should we?
Stealth - Active/Passive [LvL 4] (63%):
Best skill for peepers
Description: Nin-nin... stay in the dark to not let other find you're here. Be the shadow, be the ninja. Ability to not alert others beings of your presence...NINJA! Attack while being undetected will have a correction damage.

-Decrease noises made by 8%
Active:
-40% bonus damage to unaware target
-Decrease leak of power by 14%
-Decrease noises made by 14%
-Mouvement speed 47% reduced
That will be very useful, plus it has a passive effect, not bad. The 'leak of power' could be pretty interesting too. But this speed decrease is really a bummer...
Thievery - Passive [LvL 7] (5%):
The world is a treasury, take it.
Description: Bad, bad boy. This is the ability to be more efficient in the art of being a baddy stealer boy.

My front made a cliche vein pop from irritation. Is this a challenge? Do you think that your weapons are awesome, Oh, Great God of Blacksmiths? Just you wait...
Language - Passive [LvL 1] (60%):
Understanding the world is learning from it.
Description: The skill to mastering the basic skill of life. Language, the power to communicate, what power could it reveal?
English - MAX
Japanese - LvL 1
Greek - LvL 1
Śāradā script - LvL 1
...That stinks the OP hidden skill at level MAX. But seriously, what is that 'Śāradā script', wasn't that a lost language?
...No, that's from the 'Brahmic scripts'... what kind of books did I learn that from?
Oh yeah, the other books with the same skill were for this one. Eating the others I got Japanese, Greek and Śāradā thing knowledge.
I don't master Japanese yet, but I think I can understand some words, sorta.
The last of the bunch and not the less, magic.
[Flash Magic]... I wonder what kind of magic that could be. A magic of light, like the angels? Or maybe the Hirenkyaku? You know, 'flash' may means instant movement after all... only one way to find it.
Flash - Active [LvL 1] (60%) - 10 MP:
LIGHT!
Description: A magic that creates a flash of light by using mana. Power depends on INT and skill level.
-May inflict status [Blind]
"..."
Breath in...
Breath out...
Breath in... F*ck that.
"AIN'T THAT JUST A SHIT* FLASHLIGHT MAGIC?!"
What I am, a Pokemon?
Did I learn [Flash] to go in some dark ass cave with lots of Zubat? Am I just an expandable one? When you're done with me you just shove me in the PC and forget about me? I will blind you, you son of a bone!
*Sigh*
Well that's it, I'm done... or not.
Didn't I get another special skill or something? Well I don't expect much bu-
Steal - Active [LvL 1] (0%) - 50 MP:
Is this a reference? Well it does what its called...
Description: I will do my best to steal! Let's use magic to steal items, magic thief bad boy, woohoo! Create a special ball of mana you shot forward and which come back to you. May not have effects on special items or powerful beings.
-If mana ball touch a not held item, it will be send in your inventory.
-If mana ball touch a being, a random item held by the being will be sent in your inventory.
+5% chance mana ball is undetectable
"...I got Konosuba vibes here...heck, even the skill hint at it!"
If it's the same, it's sooo stupid.
...
...
...
I wanna test it.
Dropping out of my ID, I scrolled in the town, in search of a prey.
After sometimes, I found one, an herbivore.
A female herbivore.
My best friend, [Observe], revealed she was drunk.
How foolish woman, for you to be alone this late and in this weakened state... you should be more careful. Some people may want to do certain things with you. Take you in the back alley. Playing with your body or...
Use a new skill on you!
"Steal!"
I felt my mind gaining a weigh. Something shot from inside my body. It was thick and whitish and- no, it's not what you think. It was a whitish ball of energy, it was shot toward the back of the woman. The woman didn't notice until the sphere touched her, even then she staggered a little but continued on, it seems it was only a minor hindrance for her.
The ball, on the other hand, disappeared in white particles. It's surprising how the woman didn't even notice that, she gotta be really drunk.
Looking at my inventory, I took out the newly acquired item.
A red bra with flower patterns on it.
I don't know much about cup sizes, but it was a little low for the DxD franchise, maybe C cup? Honestly, I thought the normal size of this universe would be E cup, maybe there's a Z cup out there?! Dragon Bool's power level boobs?!
With my thoughts going wild, I suddenly realized something...
I became a Kuzuma.
And I didn't give a sh*t.
"I love this skill!"
Best.
Skill.
Ever.

By the effect of {Untouchable} and newly acquired Records, a new title has been created!

You know what the worse is?
...
It's not that bad of a title.
Done!
That took a while... While I do have some storyline already made, I improvise a lot on the actual scenes, so things can go crazy sometimes. Especially if I listen to some crazy OST in the background. Just hope I won't make it too OP too fast...
Oh wait, the Boosted Gear is already OP as fuc* so I have some marges.
Also, about getting a Beta. Yes, it would be really useful and honestly, the story would be better with it...
...
...
BUT I REFUSE!
Why?
Because I'm an ASSHOLE!
Nyhe-heh-EHEHE-HEEHE-HEEHE-EHEHE-HEHEH-HEE...!
