You've seen my username, so you know what's up. Here I am, back at it with the DxD fanfic. I put the original on hiatus and when I went back to continue, I read it over to get a sense of the plot and I didn't like the direction the story was going, so I rewrote the whole thing.
One thing I've noticed about myself when writing fanfiction is that I like making my chapters long and somewhat descriptive… I need to change that habit. While it's not a bad thing, it takes up too much of my time and I end up losing interest in the chapter I'll be writing and it ends up being a whole thing. So from now on, I'm going to make my stories shorter and much less descriptive (or I'll try at least; I'm kind of a perfectionist).
Anyways on with the story. Same thing as before; WARNINGS: Expect some very Immoral and Disgusting shit that should NEVER be done IRL, in fact don't even think about them outside this story.
Disclaimer: I own nothing, expect my OC
Hey, let me tell you something… death is scary as shit!
Now I know what you're thinking, 'What is this guy on about. Obviously death is scary, it is death after all', but listen to me, you know nothing of death until you've experienced it yourself! I, myself, have only thought of death as a mere inconvenience that I will have to face once I get older. As a teenager, dying isn't really something you think about (unless you're very unlucky), especially one in my situation.
I used to have it all. You see, I was one of them child prodigies. I showed incredible intellect from a young age and it only increased as the days passed by. When I started to realize that I was gifted, I tried to groom myself into someone of greatness who could truly change the world.
Ha! As if, it's the 21st century, the world is alright as it is. I didn't care about any of that stuff, it was always me and my video games. I loved gaming, in fact, I was obsessed with gaming, but there was always one problem… I sucked at gaming.
That's right, the child prodigy, who could outshine scientists at their own game if he wanted to, could barely even pass the first level of a children's video game.
This infuriated me to no end, so I did the most logical thing someone of my stature would do… I doubled down on computer science so that I could be the best hacker alive… and it worked. Literally, I became a hacker of unparalleled skill to the point where I even shocked myself.
Losing at video games was never an issue for me again.
Eventually I grew bored of making petty cheat codes and moved on to something bigger, and after that I moved on to something even bigger, and after that I moved on to something even bigger than the last one until I eventually started ruining companies. I did it all, from making Game Bosses impossible to defeat to making popular female NPCs into sex tools for anyone on the servers to use.
Why did I do it, for my entertainment, no-well yes, but that is not the main reason. I was doing it for the controversy. I had made a multimillionaire—yes, you read that right—multimillionaire career out of hacking not just games, but anything and everything that could be hacked. I was a criminal, plain and simple. How do I have fun? I hack everything. How do I still have a channel, showing all this criminal activity to the millions of innocent, good children watching this? I hacked the site. How do I escape detection? I hack security systems.
I lived the dream because I had mastered my craft to the point of impossibility. Not everyone could live like I did, so I tried to enjoy it to the fullest, and all those who watched my streams, only wished they could, even the complainers. I was an escape.
And guess what, this was all before 18.
Now I can guess what most of you are thinking, how the hell did I lose it all. Simple, the green-eyed monster. It's a well known fact that most girls like money, and no girl in this category shied away from me, even if they didn't know where my money came from. Amongst these girls was one who was the cream of the crop.
She was perfect. She had the face, the body, the style, the personality, everything. Eventually I made her my 'girlfriend'.
This weekend she took me to stay at her hometown for a week to meet her family. Everything was great until her younger sister returned from her high school. Anyone with a brain could tell that she wanted me. Even though her sister was not as developed yet, something about her had this allure and eventually I caved in. We managed to keep most of our relationship a secret but on one unfortunate night, my girlfriend chose the worst possible time for a mid-night snack from the kitchen.
What happened next happened in a flash for me. One moment, we are trying to calm her down, the next, there is a knife sticking out the side of my chest where my heart is.
Now here I am… on the floor… dying… about to lose everything I worked so hard for, my life as a multi millionaire teenager. I closed my eyes and listened to sounds around me, the frantic phone calls, the crying apologies, none of the matter anymore.
'I hope the next life is better than this.'
With my gift, it certainly will~
A void of Never-Ending Light, that is where I found myself. It was so weird, I've never seen anything like this before. Is this my afterlife, am I being judged.
"Nope~ This is where you will be getting your super-duper cool powers." a voice said from beside me. I quickly turned my head to the source and found a… little kid?
"...Who are you?...And how did you know what I was thinking!?"
"My name is Zero and I'm a Gamer turned Gamemaster," He greeted cheerfully. "Your new Gamemaster to be more specific."
"...Pretend like I have no idea what you are talking about and explain everything you just said."
The proclaimed gamer gave me a deadpan look. "What's there to explain, I'm a Gamemaster and you my Gamer, my first Gamer."
What? "Wait I'm the first person you've ever done this shit with."
"That's right!"
"Yeah I think it's better if you just send me back home. I've got a life to get back to and an Ex to deal with! So if you'd just…"
Zero crossed his arms and huffed. "Hmph! Why it's not like you can remember them."
"What do you... mea– Oh shit!" I can't remember anyone! I still remember all the things I did and liked, such as my academic achievements, the kind of music I like, all the movies and anime I've watched, but in terms of the people in my life... their faces were pitch black... as in completely void of any form of facial texture... my parents, siblings, relatives, friends, ANYBODY I've had past connections with... Just gone... I can't even remember the bitch who put a bullet through my head!
No faces. No names. Nothing...
I can't even remember my OWN FUCKING name!
But why...?
Has it always been like this?
If so, why didn't I notice this until now!?
What the fuck is going on!?
"Damn it! He's freaking out. I should probably get started."

...!? Just like that all my panic was suppressed, as one vertically long holographic text box appeared in front of me. "Umm... I'm pretty sure I was having... a mental breakdown. Why am I... so calm? What did you do? And what's this?"
"Gamer Powers, I have them, you now have them~"
"Wait, this is what you meant by Gamer! Forget everything I said before, sign me up!"
"Great! Let's get started with your new name."
Please input a name_
A new text box appears in front of me, asking me for a name. A name...? Well I've been digging the name Riku ever since I played Kingdom Hearts so I guess I go with what.
"Seriously? You're going with that. That's a dumb name."
I deadpanned at the Gamemaster. "I don't think you have the right to say anything Zero."
"Hey, my name is cool and you know it!"
"Whatever makes you sleep at night."
Player has selected the name Riku
Choosing Set World
The fuck!?
"The first world you are going to is now being chosen." Zero explained.
"The world I'm going to, huh." So this is some Isekai shit. So cool! Maybe I'll land myself in Overlord and conquer the world instead of Ainz or maybe it'll be One Piece, I can see myself as a pirate. The possibilities are endless.
Set World has been chosen—[High School DxD]
…
You have got to be kidding me! "Please tell me Gamers are Immortal!"
"Nope, if you die as a Gamer, you're gone for real."
I'm so conflicted right now. I don't know whether to be excited or scared. On one hand, this is the same dimension which puts tits above all, on the other hand, EVERYTHING that has ever been mentioned in ANY mythology is a thing in DxD. That means there are beings who possess the power to quite literally remove me from existence by snapping their fingers, Thanos style.
"On the bright side, there's lots of cool powers and you get 1000 Points to choose which ones you want, speaking of which,"
Please select a race.
[Human] - Free
Faster skill growth and exp gain
Ability to purchase a sacred gear
Weaker racial bonuses than most races
[Angel] - 100 Credits
Free access to Light Magic and the Heaven Faction
Free use of All-Speak and Flight
Resistance to light and holy magic
[Fallen Angel] - 100 Credits
Free access to Light Magic and the Grigori/Kokabiel Faction
Free use of All-Speak and Flight
Resistance to light and holy magic
[Devil] - 100 Credits
Free access to Devil Magic and the Old Satan/72 Pillars Faction
Free use of All-Speak, Contracts, and Flight
Weakness to light and holy magic
The list went on and on, with Vampires, Dhampirs, and Youkai, and even Dragons being on the list, although that one cost almost 5000 points, so it's clearly out of my price range.
Now that I think about it, I really don't know much about DxD, I mean there's the Riser thing and the whole Kokabiel thing and some other stuff but I've never really taken the series seriously (Ha!), I was more focused on the Fan Service. Regrettable.
What I do know is that all the main characters are devils, so it's only logical I become one too right…? But if I do that I can't have a Sacred Gear and I really want a Sacred Gear. Lucky for me there's a great solution.
[True Hybrid] - 400 Credits

Gain the Full Perks of Both Races
The Weaknesses of One Race can be compensated by the Other
Race: [Devil/Human True Hybrid]

Racial Trait: 25% Faster Experience Gain
Discover your heritage to unlock more of its abilities
There were actually two solutions, a normal Hybrid and then this. The difference between the two being, a True Hybrid does not hold anything back.
Let me explain, if I was to be a normal Hybrid and go forth with the Human-Devil plan, since Humans are much weaker than Devils, the power bonuses I get from being a Devil would be reduced or if I was to be a Angel-Devil combination, there is a chance my powers might conflict and who knows what might happen.
With True Hybrid, everything will be so in sync that I can get the full perks of both races and won't have to worry about any consequences, it's the perfect option, albeit it being costly. Normal Hybrid was only 200 Credits.
"Going with the Devil/Human True Hybrid combo, pretty nice. I mean, there are better combos but... this one's not bad."
"Well what's done is done. Now what do I do next?" I asked.
"Now you have to set up your Origin." Zero replied.
Origin?
"You know how at the beginning of some Rpg games they give you a choice to pick out the background of your character, this is my version of it. Since you are a Hybrid you have to do this for both of your races.

Ok, [Neutral] was out of the question for sure, it's choices suck! I'll be dumped on Earth with no support, no protection from Exorcists and other Evil Slayers. One of the options was to be a Stray Devil, who in their right mind would pick that!
"You'd be surprised."
...Anyways, [Reincarnated Devil-Born] and [72 Pillars Commoner] are not my style either, I mean who respects these guys. No matter how cool the Satan Clan advantage may seem, I don't want to be hunted down by Sirzechs Lucifer and his band of OPness so [Old Satan Faction] is out. That leaves...
[72 Pillars Nobles] – 200 Credits
One of the 72 Pillars that original from the Devil Underworld
You have used 100 Credits for a random Devil Clan Bloodline fusion
Best option overall. I don't particularly know much about the Devil Clans so I went with the fusion. Two is better than one after all.

Wait!? Sacred Gears are free!
"It's just one of those things an important Human must have in DxD." Zero explained to me. "It's like Saiyans and their super form, despite how 'rare' they made it sound, any important Saiyan can go super, even the little kids."
Lucky me... well not so lucky. It looks like a Longinus is out of my pay grade right now. I might as well go random and rely on my luck, hopefully I don't get a trashy Sacred Gear. That still leaves me with 300 Credits to use and I know just where to place them.

[Exorcist] – 100 Credits
Killing Evil and Demonic Creatures that can potentially harm Humans for the sake of 'Justice'! It's the family business
You have used 200 Credits to be a Prophet
I did for the irony. Who would ever think of an Exorcist Devil.
"From here you'd have to pick your Perks but it looks like you used up all your Credits." Zero said to me.
Perks!? "Why not tell me that before I wasted all my Credits!?"
"Hey, don't worry about it. How about we make a deal."
"What kind?"
"Normally there are Flaws which you have to take up for Credits and among the Flaws are Sins. How about this, let's give you Sin Flaws based on your old life for a random perk based on your origins, the more Sins you have, the more perks you can get."
"Fine by me." What do I have to lose?
"Great! Let's start."
[Importing Traits...]
[Importing Sins...]
[Sins Importing. Fusing Sins...]
What?
"Huh?" Zero seemed to be confused too.
[Sins Fused]
Flaw Obtained: [The Seven Deadly Sins]
The faults that are said to be the cause of all evil actions, the very instincts that drive Creatures of Darkness, normally an individual possesses one or two, you possess all
Major Sin: [Sin of Pride], [Sin of Wrath], [Sin of Lust] and [Sin of Sloth]
Minor: [Sin of Gluttony], [Sin of Greed] and [Sin of Greed]
...
"I can't say I expected this." Zero spoke after a brief silence.
Was I really this fucked up!? "Is this bad?"
He gave me a nervous look. "...the good news is Minor Sins are kinda easy to control."
"And the Major Sins?"
...
...
"Let's just say it's a good thing you're part-devil." He said after more silence. A cheerful smile then appeared on his face. "Well, we had a deal, Seven Sins, Seven Perks."
At least there's a good upside to all this.
Perk Obtained: [One with Mana]
Instead of simply having a magic core, magic flows through you to the point where it can be considered a part of you
Mana from INT and Mana regen from WIS is Tripled
Skill Added: [Syphoning]

Perk Obtained: [Soulbound Bets]
Any Bets made with you are Soulbound, forcing all participants to follow through with their bets, unable to try and worm out of it no matter what their personality is like
*Warning! All Participants includes you...
O-k not the kind of perk I would prefer since I like to lie and cheat myself out of everything. I'm very unsatisfied with this... but whatever, next.
Perk Obtained: [Why Me...]
You're special, really special and you're not the only one who knows this. Others can feel it too, that you are someone who is destined for greatness
Makes people want to recruit you or ally with you. Also makes people more likely to join any Organisation that you are apart of, more effective if you are the leader
*Warning! Desperation can make people do crazy things. Watch out for those willing to go an extra mile
"I think there's a mix-up, am I getting Perks or Flaws!"
Zero shrugged. "Don't look at me, these are random."
...But he still created this shit. Anyways, now I have to watch out for Rias and the rest of them greedy devils. There's no way I am becoming someone's servant, no matter how nicely they try to dress it. Next.
Perk Obtained: [The Devil's Luck]
When it comes to games of chance, losing is all but impossible for you. Coins always land on the side you want them to, dice always roll the number you need and you'll always draw the cards you require.
+2 LUK per level, 90% Success in games that are left to Luck
Ok, now this is what I'm talking about. I was never much of a gambler but that might change now.
Perk Obtained: [Supernatural Charm Amongst Its Kind]
In the Supernatural World, Beauty and Charm are very common but there are individuals who are a class unique above others
+4 CHA per 2 levels and easier Charisma checks with those attracted to the male gender

Perk Obtained: [Legendary Artifact]
Somehow, Someway, you are in possession of a legendary artifact. The artifact in question is however randomized.
Huh, not what I was expecting. Hopefully it's something mega powerful.

You are the epitome of talent and ability! You are the Jack of all Trades who became the master of all trades. You have no compare and are truly the envy of the world
Level EXP, Skill EXP and Stat Gain are all increased by 100%
Shit! This might be my favorite perk. I'm gonna be kicking ass in no time, DxD won't know what hit it. Now this is what I call a Big Finish!
"That's everything I guess, you can get started now."
Huh?
Transferring to Set World. Starting in...
"Wa-wait Zero! I still have questions, I need information. Are you going to be with me to answer them?"

- Sometime Later -
You know what could possibly be the worst, most disturbing feeling besides... well, dying?
If you ask me, it'll have to be birth. Now that I think about it, you probably don't get what I'm trying to say so let me rephrase things. Imagine being entirely aware through the whole damn process!
There's a reason babies are born with brains not capable of adequate memory prowess, it's enough to traumatize someone.
How do I know all this, well that's simple, Zero fucked me over and started me off as a fucking embryo. Made me go through MONTHS in this dark, cramped yet cozy place, that is filled with liquid, with full awareness (by some bullshit gamer logic), where the only thing I could hear were the heartbeats of my new mother.
At first I thought my setup with Zero was a cruel mirage and instead of being reincarnated as a gamer, I was stuck in some kind of Limbo, but once my ears developed enough to hear the muffled voices from the outside world, especially my new mother's (jeez, that woman loves to talk), hope was restored as I realised; Holy shit! I'm a freaking gamer!
While I'm truly grateful to Zero for the fact I'm getting a second chance at life (in an anime world of all places!), could he have at least spared me the fate of having to be self-aware through this whole reincarnation process; the least he could have done was allow my brain to develop to the point where it can properly process. Still, as a man of logic, it buffles how I'm capable of such when I was still in my fetus stages… but then again, I've already grown that same logic out the window a while back.
And to open up a bit... Do you have ANY idea how bloody boring it is to just sit…float in here with nothing else to do except daydream about future expeditions and maybe give a kick or two against the walls of the womb out of boredom? Actually there was something… or rather someone, who made things interesting here.
You're too kind, Master
Ciel, my trusty gamer guide. Because of her I was able to remain sane till now! But then again here I am monologuing to an imaginative audience… have I lost it already...?
Sigh… Anyways, present day; where I finally made my escape from the wretched womb… the process was not as fine as I hoped it would be. I'm pretty sure I've just developed some form of claustrophobia!
"Almost there, just push a little bit more!" I heard a feminine voice right by my head, likely the person helping with the delivery... Wait… that was definitely not English… Japanese?
I don't know how since I never actually studied or heard it but I'm pretty sure that was Japanese I heard!
Skill Added: [Language]
Most supernatural species are born with an innate ability to understand all Human Languages intrinsically, allowing them to communicate without a language barrier.
Can understand and read all Human languages and writing
Huh, mystery solved I guess.
"AAAAAHHHH!" That high pitched warcry was definitely my new mom screaming her lungs out. Giving birth must suck, you can blame the first woman for that… she's real here right?
"You heard that, Honey? Just a little more, you're almost there!" This time it was a male voice I heard... my old man I guess, or is it tou-san now, that's certainly going to take some time getting used to.
"AAAARRGH! SHUT UP BEFORE I DECIDE TO RIP OFF YOUR BALLS AFTER THIS, AAAAAAHHH!"
My head was then finally fully out and the light hit my eyelids, causing me to wince a bit. This made me feel a bit fortunate that my newborn eyes were at the moment still glued shut more or less so I wouldn't damage my eyesight by opening them in a reflex.
"Baby's out! It's a boy and he's such a cutie too. Congratula- Eh? "
"W-what is it, doctor? I-is my baby o-ok" My mother stuttered from exhaustion, in a highly worried tone.
"The child's not crying…" I could hear the confusion emanating from the female doctor so, as a reflex more than anything, I started crying… it was surprisingly easy. The doctor sighed in relief. "Nurse! Please take the child and make sure everything is okay."
I felt my cord getting cut (which felt so weird, by the way!) before I was passed to the nurse. The nurse then wrapped me in a soft blanket before she began to rock me softly back and forth while cooing down at me. Judging by her voice, she seemed to be in her late teens.
As a man with pride, this shit should have been hella annoying but...
*squish*
I felt my face twist in a silly grin my head was rested against the nurse's soft breasts~
...
Hey, Major Sin of Lust, remember, so sue me.
"*pant* C-can I hold him?" My new mother asked, still exhausted.
Though I couldn't see it, I practically felt the warmth emanating from the doctor's smile as she answered, "Of course, Balal-san. Here you go ma'am."
Balal? I raised an eyebrow (the best I could anyways), don't know any DxD characters by that name?
Before I could think about it further I felt myself getting handed over to someone else and the second I heard the familiar heartbeat, I immediately knew I was in my mother's arms...
"He's beautiful..." My father(?) said in a warm tone, as I felt him gently caress my head. "What name are we going to give him?"
I felt a soft pair of lips, likely mom's, over my temple. "...Riku" She answered. Good job Zero! At least he did something right. "How does that sound Masaomi-kun?"
"It's perfect… and his family name… which one will he be using?" The now named Masaomi asked, sounding almost… nervous.
"Yours, silly! It's customary for a child to inherit their father's family name." Suddenly my mother's tone became a low whisper. What she said next was probably just meant for my father, Masaomi's ears. "Plus, it's too dangerous for him to take my names… especially that one."
Consider my curiosity peaked!
"...Yes, you're right!" My old man answered with a hearty laugh, not sounding suspicious at all. Props to him. "Riku Yaegaki… smooth, I'm sure he'll grow to love it Cleria-chan!"
I will, I'm the one who really picked the name after all~
…Hold on, back things up a moment! Yaegaki… Masaomi!
…
Masaomi Yaegaki…
Cleria… Balal…? I'm guessing that's not her real surname… aw shit!

– Bonus Scene - The Stalker –
"My Lord, I have returned."
"Hohohoho~ these humans!" A dark silver haired man bellowed in laughter as he entertained himself with a cartoon projected on a magic circle. "Outsmarted by a mere bunny! But I do have to admit, this bogs bunny is a formidable one. If only he were real, what a familiar he would be. Maybe it's possible, if I train the right bun–"
"*Cough* My Lord," The other silvernette with the braided hairstyle, who was on his knees, coughed to attain his master's attention. "I have returned."
"Oh, Euclid, I didn't see you there. Rise and report."
"Yes Lord Rizevim." Euclid then removed himself from the kneeling position. "The birth was held at a private residence within Kuoh Town with intentions of disguise. There were only six occupants there, the traitor, the exorcist scum and some compelled humans who helped with the delivery." He answered.
"And the child?"
"A boy. He's everything you'd expect from a half-breed… but there was something… off about him."
Rizevim's eyes seemed to twinkle. "Ohhh~ Do tell."
"...I'm not sure how to explain it, Lord Rizevim." The servant tried to explain. "I did notice, however, that the boy did not cry, like most infants would, when he came out of the womb but rather when a compelled human doctor mentioned the unusuality."
Rivevim stroked his beard in curiosity, "Now that is interesting but probably a misunderstanding on your part Euclid."
Euclid nodded. "Maybe so my Lord. What do we do now?"
"Nothing."
By the look on his usually stoic face, Euclid did not expect that answer from his master. "W-what do you mean, Lord Rizevim?"
"Let Cleria enjoy herself for now, Razevan is also expecting a child with a human woman soon. Coincidence, I think not. It's fun to see how fate functions."
Disappointment overtook Euclid's expression. "I-I see."
"Don't look so down, Euclid. Just because we are not involving ourselves now does not mean we will stay in the shadows forever." A feral grin formed on the Son of Lucifer's face. "You will have your revenge just not now."
Euclid nodded once more. "I understand." He then looked out at the night sky.
'Cleria, maybe not soon but I will inflict to you the same pain you inflicted unto me.'
Finally done with the first chapter of the remake. If you managed to finish the entirety of the first chapter, thank you.
MC is starting off as a baby. This is mainly because in the OG story, I gave him a huge power boost out of nowhere and for no reason. I thought maybe instead he could build himself up to that level. Plus there's a lot of plot advantages I can see from writing the story this way.
Riku Appearance: Noctis Lucis Caelum from Final Fantasy XV
Zero's Appearance: Tet from No Game No Life
Cleria's Appearance: Irisviel Von Einzbern from Fate but with Gold Eyes
Masaomi's Appearance: Adult Noctis Lucis Caelum from Final Fantasy XV
If you'd like to influence my story decisions, please comment. I'll be happy to listen!
PS: How's my writing? I wrote this quickly and without much thought to it so give me some feedback. I'm kind of a perfectionist, pretty sure I mentioned that.
While you're at it, what would you prefer, shorter chapters for faster or vice versa (I think I already know most of the answers but hey, you never know)
