"So how goes your patrols?". Aleister looked over to Okita, the Assassin currently cleaning her katana.
"Nothing of note, its been rather peaceful. Its unnerving in a way". The Assassin looked across her blade, the edge was sharp, no filth contaminated the blade, perfect. "For such a place to go from so chaotic to suddenly quite, I can't help but feel we're experiencing the calm before the storm".
"Its rare, but Brockton Bay does occasionally experience peace". The master observed as the Shinsengumi captain began testing the sharpness of her blade against some pre-prepared bamboo, cleanly slicing through. "But it also invites competition, Capes can't seem to stand peaceful days".
"Just another reason to deal with them then".
Just a casual conversation here, but I feel those are important.
Bond up.
Okita Souji: 6.
"A-aleister, when can I go out and help you? Big sister can, Medea can, even that doll can!". Iris pouted as she looked up at the master from her seat, the two currently working to stock the kitchen together.
"We don't have a cape identity for you created yet, and you need more practice with your abilities as Lancer. But soon, soon you'll get to fight". Aleister smiled at the girl, but inwardly he was frowning. It was essentially an open secret Capes craved combat, Iris was no different, even if it was likely lessened by her brainwashing and Artoria Lancer's own nature. "You wanted armor similar to Artoria Lancer right?".
"Yea, since I have her powers, it only makes sense right?". Iris smiled brightly.
It... Wasn't the worst, he had yet to put Artoria Lancer or her Alter into the game, but...
"I'm sorry Iris, it'd draw to much attention. How about you speak to Medea about a design, and I'll help you create it?". Aleister pat the young woman on the head, causing her to blush and nod.
Bond formed.
Iris Dawn: 1.
Aleister was admittedly nervous when he decided to research the Digivice, it was unfathomably advanced and one wrong move could ruin his chances of acquiring a Digimon forever (Especially as he had yet to figure out how to get the Digi-Egg out of the device). So instead of opening it up, he decided to just scan the device.
After creating a couple machines to scan the Digivice, Aleister had come to a single conclusion.
The Digivice was practically the Holy Grail of digital knowledge.
Thousands of different codes traveled through it, each leading to a different path, a different ability, a different use, all coming together to form a tool beyond human creation. Many of the abilities were deactive, but he'd managed to reactivate a single one.
Holding out his Digivice, he uttered a single world.
"Digitize". A beam of light emerged from the screen of the Digivice, travelling across a plate which began to turn into pixels, which were quickly absorbed into the screen.
Pressing the buttons, Aleister grinned as he saw the plate had been completely digitized, this would make things a lot easier.
New Digivice ability unlocked!
Digitize, can transform physical matter into data (Essentially, it acts as a video-game inventory).
No idea what to write for giving FB planning function, so...
FB has been upgraded.
Basic Strategy (Can perform basic strategy's by herself).
Aleister wasn't expecting much when he set up a Digiport on FB's laptop, why would he? There was no Digital World in Earth Bet, so he'd likely just end up in a digital space. Which was still good, being able to travel across the Internet opened many doors.
"Digiport, open". He held out his Digivice, a flash of light from the screen and-
The smell of fresh air hit him, fresher then anything in Brockton Bay, where he honestly felt he needed a gas mask sometimes. The warm wind hit him next, while his eyes took in the area around him.
It wasn't much honestly, just one large island with three smaller islands floating around it, connected by stones bridges. One island had what seemed to be an attempt at a farm, while the other two were completely empty saves some trees. The large island was around the size of a single football stadium, with a couple trees and a large lake.
"Incredible... But unnatural". Aleister turned to the woman who had appeared at his side, it was technically their first time talking face to face. "You created this?".
"Hm... Meat apples didn't work...". FB pointed to the failed farm island, the master was confused for a few seconds... Before remembering meat apples were indeed a thing in Digimon, and would've been useful for feeding his Digimon without diving deep into his funds.
"How does it work? Is it an entirely separate dimension, or does it only exist inside the digital space of your laptop?". Aleister needed to understand how this worked, if this was open to the entire internet...
"Laptop, taking codes from web for upgrades". The AI-almost-Digital-Human, she had been taking random junk codes from the internet to convert into code for her miniature Digital World.
"Its incredible, and I'm sure it will only become grander". An entire world he could forge to his liking, a smile spread across his lips. Yes, this opened potential.
Just realized at this point we should've had a few bond ups for FB...
BOND UPS!
FB: 4.
We've also got our own Digital World, which I'll make a proper info sheet for after this chapter so we can see everything it has within and can do.
This was Aleister's biggest foray into the biological side of mad science yet, and it was something he wasn't even sure would work. Multiple chemical vials around him bubbled, with him carefully mixing a vial filled with green liquid into a beaker filled with red, when the colors began merging into a blue liquid, an eyebrow rose.
"Strange coloring aside, if it works it works...". This mixture was simple, more a proof of concept then anything. It made balancing more easy, energy more easily regained, limbs could bend unnaturally, skin would be slightly tougher then the average human, and all combined with a mixture that'd ensure the body would remain lean and fit instead of becoming an overly muscled giant.
He'd decided to stay in the realm of 'still human' for his first enhancement experiment, more estrotic abilities could come later once he'd tested this. A hand reached for a syringe, frowning when he only got a single syringe worth of the liquid, there goes the idea of turning all his captives into ninja's...
(Yes, he was willing to admit he based this all on the idea of ninja's, he'd watched enough cartoons with ninja's in them to realize he wanted one).
Twirling the syringe about, he wondered who to add it to. He didn't want to make TO many changes to his own DNA until he was sure it was safe, so it'd be better to use it on someone else, but who? He already marked Mush (His power would not work well with the ninja theme), Squealer (She was a Tinker, why would he turn her into a ninja), Alabaster (With his powers, any attempts to alter his DNA were worthless), and Cyber (She was more machine then human, DNA alteration wasn't much help there) off the list, leaving him with...
This one was so vague, that I had to come up with most of it myself. Please in the future, be a bit more clear what abilities your after.
Aleister frowned as he was working on the coding of FGO, while he wasn't releasing the next update yet adding improvements to the base game was a good way to ensure the fanbase stayed active (Even if the more perverted fans were already running wild, he'd certainly not added fuel to the flames). Honestly the biggest problem was dealing with hackers who kept hacking in Servants or Saint Quartz, and as much as he wanted to he couldn't get Tinker-Tech worthy defenses, what Tinkers and Thinkers even wasted their abilities on getting 2D digital characters!?
(Across the Brockton Bay, a certain AI felt like someone was talking about her... But instantly went back to rolling for Artoria Alter on the current banner, just a little more Saint Quartz wouldn't hurt right?).
Honestly, it was ridiculous-
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Aleister stumbled up quickly, his eyes drawn to his Digivice, currently on the living room table and grabbed hold of it, eyes widened as the egg on screen was shaking, cracks spreading across it-
Realizing Digimon.
In a flash of light, the egg emerged into the real world, the master grabbing into his partner quickly, his eyes not even blinking as he watched the egg shake, more cracks spreading across it until finally.
Crack!
"Puuu!". The creature's single red eyeball stared up at him, with a shaky hand Aleister gave it (Him) some headpats, which the Digimon eagerly leaning into them.
"Kuramon huh...? Nice to meet you, partner". Aleister grinned at his digital partner, the Baby stage just happily leaning in for more headpats. "You must be hungry, I'm sure we can scrounge up something for you to eat, how much can a newborn Digimon even eat anyway?".
With Kuramon in hand, the super-villain walked to his kitchen.
...Sooo, I decided to use a dice to see how many turns it'd take for the Digi-Egg to hatch, crazy huh? It also means that countdown below isn't for the Digimon hatching.
Regarding Kuramon's evolution, while I do have an idea for its main evolution path, that doesn't mean more evolution can't be unlocked.
Bond formed.
Kuramon: 1.
Countdown: 3.
