I know I shouldn't have started another story, but I'm trying to branch out (*Ignores the fact every single fic I've made is Fate or connected to Fate*). I have no idea if this will be a fic I'll work on a lot or not, but I wanted to get the idea out there.
I'm saying this now, the main character will have their own story. They are not just another tag along to Rias and Issei, they won't even meet the Peerage for a while.
I will have some things from High School DxD changed to fit better, or changed/replaced by the Fate versions... because dear god some of these weapon designs are horrible, that is purely the reason I may change stuff.
I'll admit my knowledge of DxD isn't perfect, so if I get something wrong. I'm sorry.
If you're expecting the main character to be another Issei, gathering huge harems of woman and having every woman fall in love with them, no. I haven't decided on romantic relationships, but they will defiantly be changed from canon!
Now let us begin!
"Speaking Aloud"
'Thinking'
Location or Flashback.
My life was not the best, sure I had money and a decent job, but besides that? I had no close friends, my family and I hadn't interacted in years, and my only joy was researching legends.
I wanted something more, something far more. I held a deep ambition, but in this world, there was no possible way for me to achieve it. I wanted to mark my name in history, but I had no great talent, and my life was nowhere near interesting enough to mark in history.
Returning from my job, working in a grocery store most of the day and night, to my cheap apartment. Looking about, my room was just as bland and boring, the only things adding some colour were my different anime figures. Yea yea, laugh it up, I'm an anime geek. I had already eaten dinner before I got back, so just went to bed.
Falling onto my lumpy and uncomfortable bed, I stared towards the roof, just like everything else, it was oh so boring and plain. After a bit trying to get comfortable, I finally fell asleep.
Something was wrong, instead of the usual foggy awakening I had, I was immediately perfectly awake and looking about. This wasn't my room, it was a beautiful stunning living room, a roaring fire and comfy looking sofas and chairs, with dark oak tables. I also wasn't alone, staring towards a figure who I couldn't even begin to describe, one second they were a child, next they were an elder gentleman with pink hair of all things, and other times they were a supermodel of a woman.
"I assure you, this is no dream". The Entity said, finally taking on the solid form of an elder gentleman with greying hair and blue eyes. He had a jovial grin on his face, and his eyes twinkled with joy and mirth.
"So who are you then?". I asked, I felt unnaturally calm, maybe it was just how joyful this guy was, or maybe I've gone crazy. This was clearly not natural.
"Well I'm what you people call a ROB, or a Random Omnipotent being. And I'd like to offer you a game". The Entity said, offering me a cup filled with…. Milk? It was my favourite drink, so I'll take it. At least I know why I'm so calm, I doubt this guy would want me freaking out while trying to talk to me.
"What kind of game?". I was curious, I didn't have much going on so I really wouldn't mind getting a more exciting life. But I wasn't willing to trust this guy so easily.
"Simple, I'll transfer you to a random fictional world of my choice. The world will be changed so you'll always have been there, you won't replace a random person, but you may get some new memories. In return for this, I'll give you some abilities from other worlds, I'll even throw in a reward each time you do something that really impresses me!". The Entity offered, placing a crystal orb on the table, which projected a bunch of images, showing off different worlds, some I recognised as anime or games I've seen.
"So it's kind of like the Gamer?". I asked, that was the closes I could think of to The Entity's offer. But he just shook his head and began explaining.
"No, I know some of those other ROB's are interested in those Gamers. But I always find them too much trouble, what's the fun in someone gaining so much power so quickly? I'll let you choose 3 abilities to start with, from there if really you impress me I'll grant you other rewards or abilities. You can also acquire powers from the world you're sent to, for example Ninjustu if I send you to Naruto, or Magic if I send you to Fairy Tail". The Entity explained, it was a really good offer, and I found myself considering it.
"What kind of powers could I have? I assume nothing game breaking like the Rinnegan". I asked, Rinnegan was OP but I didn't think it was a good idea.
"Well certain powers require you to have other things, so for example if you want the Rinnegan, you'd need a body that produces Chakra to use the Rinnegan". The Entity said. I see, so if I want a certain power, I may need something else.
"Could I get a body similar to Mash? A Demi-Servant, but with a normal lifespan". Mashu was cool, but her limited lifespan was something I wasn't willing to accept.
"A Demi-Servant? Sure, I'll even throw in Galahad's power". The Entity agreed, I thought I'd have to use another of my 3 abilities to acquire a Servant's power, but I won't complain.
I had a combat ability, but what else was needed? Clairvoyance was a threat, I'm not sure if the world I'm going to has any clairvoyant characters, but it's best to be prepared.
"Some kind of defence against people seeing me in clairvoyance or any other future prediction ability". I asked, and The Entity nodded in agreement. Okay I had defence against clairvoyance, I did consider asking for mental protection as well, but it felt like a bit of a waste. I'm fairly certain if there was mind reading, there's got to be mental defence I can acquire as well.
"Is there anything you suggest?". I asked The Entity, while I had many ideas for different powers I could get. I wanted to try getting on the good side of The Entity, and looking at the widening grin on his face, he was very pleased.
"Ahah! Oh it's been to long since someone has asked what powers I think would be good. How about a deal? I'll edit the world you're going to, and in return you get a very big power from that world, plus a few minor things like the ability to understand all languages. What do you think?". The Entity offered, offering his hand. It was a good deal, but I was worried how he would edit the world.
"I Agree". I said, and shook his hand. Let's just hope he hasn't fucked me over.
"Now, the final part. Deciding what world to send you to!". The Entity explained, summoning a spinning wheel with a bunch of different names on it. Some names I recognised, others I didn't. "You can get anything here, from Harry Potter, Kamen Rider, God of High School, to even God of War!". With that final sentence, The Entity spun the wheel.
It took around 30 seconds for it to start slowing down, and I saw some truly terrifying options on the list. Dragon Ball, One Punch Man, The Walking Dead, and even DOOM. Eventually however it stopped, and I was a bit worried on what it landed on.
"High School DxD huh? The world of perverts, dragons, and idiotic power ups. What power to give you from there, the Holy Grail would fit with Galahad's power, but that feels a bit too boring. Maybe another Church related Sacred Gear? No no, something better… oh, oh that could work! Hahahah this is going to be great!". The Entity exclaimed, clearly excited with whatever he had planned. "You'll get a new Sacred Gear, personally created by me! Now, let's sort out a few details".
"Details? What else is left?". I was confused, we've already completed everything right?
"Well, we do need to make you fit into that world. Since you're a Demi-Servant with Galahad's power, let's make you a Hero Descendent! Sure it may get the Hero Faction on you, but it's the best way to make sure people don't question why you have Galahad's Spirit! Plus with his holy connections, you'd naturally be able to wield Holy Swords". The Entity explained.
I'll admit I'm not the most knowledgeable of DxD, I only know of a couple arcs and that's more from second hand. But I remember the Hero Faction was a villain, I think. Maybe it was just the fanfics that made them villains and they were actually good guys? After all it was a story told from the view of a helpless pervert. I was however aware of the Excalibur's, maybe I could join the Church and become a wielder? But then again Galahad's shield is rather… large.
"Well are you ready? We've got everything sorted out, you'll be teleported to DxD. To make it easier for you, your body has been in a Coma for a few months, you can even claim Amnesia if you want! It's all up to you now". The Entity said, with a final nod I was ready.
Everything started getting blurry, but before I fully faded away, I heard one last thing from The Entity.
"I wonder how he'll react when he wakes up. Eh if he complains he should've just worded his powers better". What…?
Somewhere else, in a random hospital in France.
Ugh… my everything hurt. I was in a bed, a really soft bed, I could tell that at least. I was about to force myself up, but the voice of someone else nearby stopped me.
"This is the girl? Not what I expected". A deep male voice stated, girl? Was someone else here with me? Something inside me was telling me it was best to pretend to sleep, and considering who I now had the spirit of… yea best to listen to the knight.
"I assure you Sir, she has one of the highest compatibility with Holy Swords we've ever seen. She may even be able to wield a Excalibur!". Another male voice said, his was far younger and excited sounding. I'll call the deep voice Broody and the other voice Squeaky, I have absolutely no naming sense. But who was the girl with me? The Entity better not have given me a sister, I've already had enough family issues thank you very much!
"And her family?". Broody asked. Huh? So the girl wasn't related to me if Broody is asking about it. Why was I starting to get a bad feeling?
"All dead Sir, I suggest the Church adopt her as an Orphan. She's around 13, so she should easily accept the beliefs of the Church with ease if she's 'saved' by them". Squeaky explained, poor girl. She's probably going to end up manipulated into being a puppet of the church, maybe I can try saving her?
"While such a loss of life is a tragedy, I'm sure the Lord will accept this lost lamb into his embrace. What is her name?". Broody asked, oh finally! Maybe she's a character I know, but it's a bit strange they haven't mentioned me.
"Tachie Kyrielight, apparently she's related some old Church knights". Squeaky explained. Tachie Kyrielight? Isn't Tachie the name of the prototype Mash…?
"Could I get a body similar to Mash? A Demi-Servant".
"A Demi-Servant? Sure, I'll even throw in Galahad's power".
That… FUCKING ROB! I'M GOING TO FIND A WAY TO KILL HIM!
And that's how I began my new life, as Tachie Kyrielight, in the world of dragons and perverts… I'm fucked aren't I?
Hahahah! Oh this is going to be fun, very very fun. You can probably predict some stuff that will be happening, but I'll state it now this is a few years before canon DxD.
From my research, canon starts when Issei was 17-18. Tachie has around 3-4 years before canon to prepare… and she's already grabbed the interest of the Church, who will become even more interested in her when they discover Galahad's Spirit.
Tachie WILL eventually obtain Galahad's shield, but she is not starting with it. Her Sacred Gear is being something… dark, and that's all I'm revealing.
What will happen with Tachie, will she be forced to join the Church? Become a Stray Exorcist?
For those worried Tachie will be OP, she has absolutely no experience fighting and the instincts of Galahad can only help so much. Her body is going to be durable, but that's the biggest thing she's got going for her.
