Prince of The Damned: A Gamers Tale.

Thoughts 'I wonder where I am?'
Speaking "no I'm new around here"
System [You have levelled up]
Deity, Spirit, unknown entity speaking, "You Dare"
--
Unknown Time, Unknown Place.
Sat there in the eternal and never-ending darkness of the void was a young teenage boy with brown hair and hazel eyes simply floating there with barely any recollection of his previous life.
'You know I always imagined the afterlife being something akin to Heaven or Hell and not just a vast emptiness' he thought solemnly.
'Come to think of it I don't remember much if anything. Who even am I?' He asked mentally, confused as to where he was or who he was.
He remembered small details of his life but nothing about his personal life, like who he was or how old he was. He remembered he enjoyed games and liked to fuck a lot in university. He was just about to finish university too, it was annoying doing all that work just to die. On the bright side at least he got to enjoy a lot of fucking and parties. He was kind of a nerd with an extremely good social life and was relatively handsome.
"Oh, well" he sighed.
[Welcome! You have been chosen as the Host of the Gamer System!]
He jumped in shock "H-hello?! Who's there?"
[General world knowledge has been retained, while all personal information has been erased to ensure an easy transition for the host.]
[Hello Host, I am the Gamers System and you have been chosen to be the gamer.]
His eyes widened to an unnatural degree 'Wait what the hell?!, As in those systems from the fanfictions I used to read?!!' Then he pauses for a second confused at the memories invading his mind.
[Yes exactly]
"You can read my mind?!" He inquired with a shocked tone of voice.
[Of course, I can I've latched on to your soul and that gives me access to everything including your mind.]
"I-i see." He mumbles silently, surprised at the situation he was in.
[Wonderful, shall we get started then? To start the process, press the start button in front of you.]
He looked down to see a screen that popped up in front of him.
With a few minutes to think and calm down, he finally pressed start.

As he looks at the screen he feels himself calming down all his previous emotions like fear gone, "Huh neat," he said checking out his Gamers Mind skill, "Guess that works," he said while smirking slightly.
[Yes, moving on.]
[Your name has been pre-chosen, so we can skip that.
[Please select a race.]
[Human] [?] [?] [?] [?]
The brown-haired teenager looked at the question marks and raised his eyebrow and asked, "uh hey system what's with the question marks?"
[Well host the question marks are random races they could be anything from a [Slime] to a [Primordial dragon god.]
"Oh," he says seemingly wondering if it was worth the risk, 'On the good side I could get an OP race that would make me basically invincible like a Godling or even a Saiyan (with some training of course) but I could also become weak and potentially be killed straight off and if there was one thing I didn't want, it was to not die again, especially since I can't remember much of my last life.'
After thinking about it for a few minutes he decided it was best to see the benefits of becoming a human before making a choice that could very well alter the course of his future. "Hey, system, what stats and benefits would I get as a human?"
[Good question host give me a second]

"Well that's basically what I expected," he said in thought as he sighed, "Ah well I didn't get reincarnated to be boring," he says as he clicks [?] "Please system give me something good."
[Race Selected]
[Race: ???]
"What, are you telling me that I just took a massive risk just for you to not tell me what I got?!" After a few seconds, I feel my mind relax and took a deep breath before I hear the system speak.
[Your race will be shown when you go to your new life.]
He sighs and then he figures it's not that big of a deal anyway.
[Anyways…. Time for character customisation!]
[Warning body may change due to race or age.]
the screen disappears and suddenly I find myself in a white room with a naked body that is more akin to an extremely life-like mannequin that's missing all the features that make a person.
Welcome to Character Creation!
Please make your new avatar!
His small smile turns into a big grin, as a featureless body appears in front of him and a customisation screen, like the ones he used to use in the video games he played, showed up in front of him.
'New world, new me,' he thinks with a grin as he starts customising his body.
~35 mins later~
Looking proudly at his new body that took a while to make, he was rewarded for his labours, his new body stood at 6'2ft just below what he considered too tall, the body belonged to a teenage boy, and he had pure white coloured hair with golden eyes with slits in them like dragons and an angelic face with high cheekbones, with a full six pack with lean but powerful muscles, he had the body of a very athletic swimmer with aristocratic and captivating features which would only look better as his CHA increased, had a definite childishness on it which will make MILFS motherly senses tingle. His teeth are perfectly white and he had cute little fangs. His face would capture the attention of any who saw it.
He may not remember anything from his old life but he knew he wanted to look good and otherworldly.
He also made sure to make his pride and joy as a man a few inches bigger to feel some sort of manly pride. After finishing he pressed the finished button as soon as did his new body shifted and morphed and the next thing he knows his skin is smooth and he can see strands of white hair.
After that, he just did some minor adjustments here and there until He got something He felt satisfied with the results. Looking over his new avatar body He can't help but feel proud of himself Oh why not two or three extra inches wouldn't hurt right? There we go, now this is good!
He noticed that the custom body has vanished and it doesn't take a genius to find out what transpired.
[Now just two more steps before we get you to your new world!]
"Awesome," he said with excitement.
[Unique skill given due to race and heritage]
[Unique skill - [Umbramancer]
"I don't know if I should be worried or happy," he said with slight concern that he may have messed up with his race selection.
"What does the Unique skill [Umbramancer] do?" He asks hoping it's good
Unique skill
[Umbramancer] – LVL 1/100
Gives user control of shadows, better control and abilities come with more levels. Known for being extremely versatile and dangerous once levelled up.
[Alert: the the unique skill [Umbramancer] has been locked due to unknown heritage]
He stares at the screen and only one word comes out of his mouth "Fuck…".
He looks at the screen for a few seconds before realising the game called it a special skill so he decided to ask "how can I get more of these Unique skills?"
[Alert: Unique skills can only be gained through bloodlines or a blessing from a god and of course in the unique section of the shop.]
"I see, it seems I'll have to find out who my parents are to unlock it. Better do that soon since it seems detrimental to my growth to keep it locked" he said pondering over it.

"Shit that's not good" he said looking at the lust perk. He was already kinda lustful before and this definitely wasn't going to help.
"Damn it I want more but I don't think it's a good idea." He said in a frustrated tone, a second later Gamers mind kicks in and he decides it's best to stop before he gets something devastating.
[Well now that's done]
[Starter world has been preselected due to heritage and race.]
"Oh I see well I hope it isn't bad," he says only slightly nervous, "I hope it's not something like dark souls or dragon ball z," he shivered. Then he stopped and tilted his head in confusion as to how he could still remember that.
[Due to being a gamer you have gained the knowledge you had in your previous life of the previous games played, anime, movies, books etc. That you knew off warning some of your knowledge may be rusty if you haven't watched or read them near your time of death..]

"Oh shit awesome, bunch of sexy chicks there but there's also a ton of gods. I just gotta hope I'm not some shit race like a snail or some bs like that."

[Loading background…]
[Background: Dante's father [?] Went on a business trip to the underworld, where he attended a business party and met Dante's mother [?] after talking for a while they both eventually drunkenly had sex resulting in the birth of Dante.
When Dante was born she tried raising him to the best of her abilities all the while keeping her husband at bay while she sent him to [?] academy and tried to give him the best life he could have. only to be forced to give him away to his father [?] at the age of 8 due to fear of her husband executing him after an assassination attempt was made of Dante's life. Resulting in past 8-year-old Dante's hate and confusion for his mother abandonment.
Dante's father [?] then left him to be raised by humans who abused and starved him due to his freaky nature only to later on die due to a monster attack on Dante leading To their deaths after being led by Dante's aura awakening prematurely resulting in Dante's father leaving him at the lotus hotel until he was needed.
all the while his mother immediately regretted her actions after seeing the hurt and fear on her son's face she asked Dante's father [?] for her son back only to be rejected leaving her with a broken heart as she vowed to one day find her son and do anything for his forgiveness...]
He deadpans while reading his background and finally says, "Couldn't have made it more generic if you tried Game."
[Says the pervert who gave himself a bigger penis.]
"Touché," he says slightly embarrassed.

[Entering PJO/DXD universe]
Everything started moving around and he felt like he's being sucked into some sort of black hole as suddenly pain filled every part of his body until darkness took over his vision once again.
