Chapter 3: Childhood Journeys

However, Miki had a different perspective. She had always been a woman of strong opinions and was not afraid to voice them. "No! I want to name him Isamu!" she declared, her voice echoing in the room. The name Isamu, meaning courage, resonated with her. She felt that it was a name that carried a strong, positive connotation and would inspire their child to be brave and fearless in the face of adversity.

Moreover, Miki pointed out that the name Isamu was closer to the name of their firstborn, Issei. She believed that the names of siblings should have a certain harmony to them, a belief rooted in her love for her family and her desire for unity. "The name is closer to his brother, and it means courage!" Miki said, her voice filled with conviction.

Gorou listened to Miki's words, taking in her reasoning. He admired her passion and her thoughtfulness. After a moment of silence, he broke into a wide grin. "Wow, so Issei is honest, and Isamu is courageous. PERFECT!" he yelled in satisfaction. His voice was filled with joy and excitement. He loved the idea of their children's names reflecting such positive traits.

The couple's discussion about their baby's name was more than just a casual conversation. It was a reflection of their hopes and dreams for their child. They wanted their child to grow up to be a person of character, embodying honesty and courage. The names Issei and Isamu, in their minds, were a perfect representation of these qualities.


Third Person POV

'While my parents are doing whatever, I'll check my status and skills. Status' Isamu thought. In his mind, he visualized a screen displaying his status. It was like a video game interface, showing his current level, experience points, and health points.

'Well, that's nice. Skill Tree.' Next, he turned his attention to his skills. He imagined another screen, this one showing a list of his skills. Each skill was represented by a name and a level, indicating his proficiency in that particular area.

Skills

Gamer's Mind - Lvl MAX: Gamer's Mind ability allows the user to remain calm and think logically in dangerous and stressful situations, such as combat. This ability also makes the user immune to psychological status effects.

Gamer's Body - Lvl MAX: The 'Gamer's Body' skill allows the user to recover from any physical damage that doesn't kill, although his health bar still decreases. The user's health recovers extremely quickly and can learn any ability.


Sacred Gear: Khronos' Eye - Lvl 1/100

Description: This Sacred Gear appears as an intricate eye design on the user's right eye. The pupil, the black center of the eye, is depicted as a deep, endless void, drawing the viewer in. It's filled by a ring of gold.

Abilities:

Time Pause - Lvl 1/50: The user can pause time for a few seconds, allowing them to move freely while everything else is frozen. This ability has a cooldown period to prevent overuse. Cost: 1,000 MP per second.

Temporal Acceleration - Lvl 1/50: The user can speed up their own time, allowing them to move faster than the eye can see. This ability drains the user's mana the longer it's active. Cost: 1,000 MP per second.

Chron Echo - Lvl 1/50: The user can send a short-term echo of themselves into the future. This echo can scout ahead and relay information back to the user, allowing them to anticipate future events. Cost: 500 MP

Temporal Perception - Lvl 1/50: The user can perceive events that occur in extremely short time frames, effectively giving them superhuman reaction speed. Cost: 100 MP per second.

Time Dilation - Lvl 1/50: The user can slow down or speed up their perception of time. This can make it seem like everything around them is moving in slow motion or fast forward. However, this doesn't affect the flow of time for anyone else. Cost: 100 MP per second.


ID Create - Lvl MAX: The user can create a dungeon based on the enemy they choose.

ID Destroy - Lvl MAX: The user can destroy the dungeons they create although certain situations can stop this process.


Limitless - Lvl 1/100: This technique brings the concept of "Infinity" into reality, allowing the user to manipulate and distort space. Limitless technique operates the same way convergent and divergent sequences do in mathematics. The Infinity is the convergence of an immeasurable series, anything that approaches the infinity slows down and never reaches the user. This is because the technique takes the finite amount of space between the two subjects and divides it an infinite number of times. In mathematics, no matter how many times someone divides a number it will never be reduced to zero. Instead, they will be left with fractional units so infinitesimal it would become immeasurable to their eye. The Limitless brings this concept into reality, so anything that attempts to penetrate this infinitely divided space will slow down to the point of appearing to stop completely.

Six Eyes - Lvl MAX: ? (You'll have to do something extreme.)


'Holy SHIT! These abilities are great,' he thought to himself, his heart pounding with anticipation. He had just discovered his new powers, and he was eager to explore them further. 'And I guess the limitless doesn't activate unless I create some techniques. And what does Six eyes need me to do?' he pondered, his mind filled with questions and possibilities.

While Isamu was lost in his thoughts, his parents, Miki and Gorou, were having a conversation of their own. They were in the hospital room, their faces glowing with joy and love. Their newborn twins had just opened their eyes for the first time, a moment they had been eagerly waiting for. "Miki! Look their eyes are open!" Gorou exclaimed; his voice filled with happiness. His eyes were sparkling with joy as he looked at his children, his heart swelling with pride.

Miki, who was still recovering from the exhaustion of childbirth, slowly rose from the hospital bed. "Okay, okay. Let me see," she said, her voice soft but filled with excitement. She carefully walked towards the crib, her eyes shining with anticipation. As she looked at her children, Gorou couldn't help but express his awe. "Whoa! Look at Isamu's eyes! It's like I'm looking at the ocean!" he said, his voice filled with wonder. Indeed, Isamu's eyes were a beautiful shade of ocean blue, as deep and mysterious as the sea itself.

Miki smiled at Gorou's words; her heart filled with love for their children. "Wow! You're right, dear. But look! Issei's eyes are light brown just like his mother!" she said happily. Issei's eyes were indeed a beautiful light brown color, just like Miki's. It was as if a piece of her was reflected in him.

As they admired their children, Miki and Gorou couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder. They were parents now, responsible for two precious lives. It was a moment they would cherish forever, a moment filled with love, joy, and a promise of a beautiful future. And as they looked into their children's eyes, they knew that they were ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead, together as a family.

The room was filled with a sense of warmth and love, a testament to the strong bond that Miki and Gorou shared.

As the day turned into night, Miki and Gorou continued to marvel at their children, their hearts filled with love and joy. They spoke softly to their children, their voices filled with tenderness and affection. They held their children close, their touch gentle and loving. And as they looked into their children's eyes, they saw a reflection of their own love and joy, a testament to the strong bond that they shared.

And so, as the night fell and the stars began to twinkle in the sky, Miki and Gorou held their children close, their hearts filled with love and joy. They whispered sweet words of love and affection to their children, their voices soft and tender. And as they held their children close, they felt a sense of peace and contentment, a feeling of love and joy that was beyond words.

A sense of peace washed over him, a feeling so profound and yet so simple. 'Wow… This is what a family feels like,' he thought to himself, his heart swelling with a newfound sense of belonging.

He closed his eyes, allowing the feeling to wash over him. It was a feeling of warmth, of love, of a bond so strong it was almost tangible. He could hear the soft murmur of his parents' voices; their words weaving a tapestry of love and care around him. He could feel the gentle rhythm of the house, the heartbeat of a home filled with love.

'I can't believe I've missed this feeling for so long,' Isamu thought, a sense of wonder filling his heart. He had been so engrossed in his own world, so caught up in his own thoughts, that he had almost forgotten the simple joy of being part of a family. But now, as he sat there with his eyes closed, he could feel it - the warmth, the love, the sense of belonging. It was a feeling that filled him with a sense of peace and contentment, a feeling that made him feel whole.


As the shrill ringing of the alarm clock echoed through the room, Isamu stirred from his sleep. His twelve-year-old eyes, heavy with the remnants of dreams, fluttered open. With a groan, he reached out and slammed his hand down on the alarm clock, silencing the intrusive noise. "Kami," he muttered to himself, rubbing his eyes as he sat up in bed. "It's been a crazy twelve years."


Sacred Gear: Khronos' Eye - Lvl 49/100

Description: This Sacred Gear appears as an intricate eye design on the user's right eye. The pupil, the black center of the eye, is depicted as a deep, endless void, drawing the viewer in. It's filled by a ring of gold.

Time Dilation - Lvl 21/50: The user can slow down or speed up their perception of time. This can make it seem like everything around them is moving in slow motion or fast forward. However, this doesn't affect the flow of time for anyone else. Cost: 100 MP per second.

Chrono Burst - Lvl 20/50: The user can release a burst of temporal energy that disrupts the flow of time in a localized area. This ability can cause opponents to move erratically, as their time is sped up and slowed down at random. However, it doesn't affect the flow of time for the user or anyone else not targeted by this ability. Cost: 4,500 MP per use.

Time Loop - Lvl 22/50: The user can trap an opponent in a short time loop, causing them to repeat their actions over and over. This ability can disorient opponents and provide the user with an opportunity to counterattack or escape. However, it doesn't affect the flow of time for the user or anyone else not targeted by this ability. Cost: 4,000 MP per use.

Temporal Healing - Lvl 27/50: The user can accelerate the flow of time around their wounds or the wounds of others, speeding up the natural healing process. This ability does not affect the user's age or the flow of time around them. Cost: 3,000 MP per use.

Time Reversal - Lvl 18/50: The user can reverse time for a few seconds, undoing recent events. This ability can be used to avoid damage or correct mistakes, but it doesn't affect the memories of anyone involved. Cost: 2,000 MP per use.


Limitless - Lvl 53/100: This technique brings the concept of "Infinity" into reality, allowing the user to manipulate and distort space. Limitless technique operates the same way convergent and divergent sequences do in mathematics. The Infinity is the convergence of an immeasurable series, anything that approaches the infinity slows down and never reaches the user. This is because the technique takes the finite amount of space between the two subjects and divides it an infinite number of times. In mathematics, no matter how many times someone divides a number it will never be reduced to zero. Instead, they will be left with fractional units so infinitesimal it would become immeasurable to their eye. The Limitless brings this concept into reality, so anything that attempts to penetrate this infinitely divided space will slow down to the point of appearing to stop completely.

Infinity Shield - Lvl 41/100: The user can create a shield of distorted space around them. Any attack that attempts to penetrate the shield will slow down to the point of appearing to stop, effectively blocking it. Cost: 1,500 MP per use.

Infinity Step - Lvl 45/100: This technique allows the user to distort space in a specific direction, creating a pathway where distance is infinitely divided. This allows the user to cover large distances in a single step. Cost: 3,000 MP per use.

Infinity Strike - Lvl 42/100: The user can infuse their attacks with the power of the Limitless technique, causing them to distort space and slow down time upon impact. This can make their attacks harder to dodge and increase their effectiveness. Cost: 2,000 MP per use.

Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue - Lvl 44/100: This technique is achieved when the Limitless user greatly amplifies the amount of cursed energy poured into the technique. This brings the concepts of "negative numbers" and "negative distance" into reality, forcing real space to compensate and fill in the area by drawing everything toward the impossibility. This generates a strong force of attraction, similar to a powerful magnet. It appears as a large blue energy orb. Flowing higher amounts of cursed energy into the technique generates larger fields of attraction in return. The magnetic force is powerful enough to tear apart entire buildings apart in moments. Cost: 6,000 MP per use.

Cursed Technique Reversal: Red - Lvl 47/100: This technique is the Cursed Technique Reversal of the Limitless, an extraordinarily powerful extension technique passed down in the Gojo Family. The reverse Limitless technique is powered by positive energy generated from reverse cursed technique as opposed to negative cursed energy. This reverses the effect of the strengthened Limitless, producing a strong repelling effect rather than an attracting one. The technique manifests itself as a small, but extremely bright red orb on the tip of the user's finger, representing the very essence of convergence and divergence brought into reality. When released, the explosive output is massive, creating a gigantic shockwave that blows everything away without prejudice. The overall cursed energy output from Red is more than twice that of the strengthened Limitless, Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue. Cost: 6,000 MP per use.
