Chapter 2: Meeting Joe

Mc POV

I had been walking forever, and let me tell you, it was boring as heck. But then, out of nowhere, I heard the sound of snoring up ahead. I thought, "Great, maybe I can finally find the bi#ch who wont let me even die in peace!" So, I picked up the pace, eager to see what was going on.

But when I finally got there, guess who I found? It was the fu%king joe Morgan, of all people, snoring away like a drilling machine! I couldn't believe it. To wake him up, I let out a big, dramatic cough, hoping it would do the trick.

cough...cough...cough Oh, hello there, sir. Good morning," I croaked out, trying to clear my throat. Joe Morgan glanced at me with a small smile and said, "Well, it's afternoon in your world, but I couldn't care less."

"Yeah, yeah... sure..." I mumbled. After a bit of awkward silence, he strolled over to me and decided it was time for introductions.

"Hello, mortal. I am nobody. Even if I were to tell you my name, you wouldn't be able to hear it, for you are but a simple mortal. As for the appearance of beings like me, we don't have a specific shape or sound. We are distinguished by our origin. As for me, I originate from reality. So, any questions?" he Morgan asked me with a bored expression.

But I was still awestruck by his sound. It was like hearing something but nothing at the same time. The load of information I received in such a short time was too much to process for me, so after closing my half-open mouth, I replied, trying my best not to offend him.

"No questions, sir. Even if I ask something, I am sure I won't be able to understand it. But I am wondering why I am meeting a superior being such as you," I replied with curiosity.

"Ah, straight to the point, I see. The reason you are here is because of your karma. Although not the highest ever, you've acquired about 50,000 in your short life".

"It's rare to see people with good karma higher than their bad karma. Basically, you can bargain with this good karma for some wishes, including the future world you are going to be reincarnated," he replied calmly.

"Is it possible for me to go back to my previous world?" I asked.

"Nope," he replied. "You can't go back; you can only start anew somewhere else, like your favorite movie or anime universe. You get to choose whichever world you'd like to go to and make wishes with your karma."

"Usually, people with good karma go to heaven, but I think you deserve more with those karma points of yours."

"So, is the Webtoon world included? If it is, I'd like to go to the Lookism world," I asked eagerly. He immediately confirmed that it was available and informed me that it would cost 10,000 karma points, which I was more than willing to exchange. With that settled, it was time for me to make my wishes.

"I would like to be born with Gojo's ability," I declared. However, this wish cost me 19,000 karma points instantly due to his immense power level and he can use some cheat abilities.

I could have bought his ability for less, but I preferred to live without worries, even in this dangerous place..

With 21,000 fate points still in my possession, I started to think over what would be the most advantageous thing for my upcoming adventure in the Lookism universe. This world is filled with all sorts of extraordinary individuals, from a guy with extreme self-doubts having an entirely different body to switch to a nerd who possesses game-like abilities and skills and a crazy guy who beats professional fighters by watching tutorials a day before fights. It was a place where being well-prepared was essential .

As I scrolled through the Wikipedia-like thing that appeared in front of me for something to choose, I came across some rather peculiar options, like the ability to steal underwear, which cost a hefty 5,000 fate points.

I couldn't even understand who in the right mind would ever choose such an ability?.

After a lot of scrolling and searching, then it hit me – how could I forget about the monster when it comes to combat?

As I was searching for his name, I was expecting to find some of his abilities or maybe even his physique. But to my astonishment, I stumbled upon something far more incredible, It was even better than I had dared to hope for!

[Hanma bloodline (100%)-20,000FV]

I think I don't need to explain more about it to you guys

Incredible strength, peak physical condition, lightning-fast speed and agility, boundless stamina and endurance, unbreakable durability, and razor-sharp reflexes, super human regeneration - you name it!

"Is that all?" he asked me after sitting there with his eyes closed, seemingly meditating for a while. I hesitated for a moment and then replied, "Yeah, almost. But sorry to ask, I can understand Gojo's ability costing 19,000 Fate Points, but wh—" I was abruptly cut off by him.

"Because it's not what you're thinking it is," he explained, his voice taking on a grave tone. "The Hanma you know just isn't pure but also incomplete in life. The thing in front of you is not the Hanma bloodline; it's the demon blood of a forgotten demon..... a demon named Hanma."

"Time's up, and the remaining 1,000 karma points have gone to your limiter that has been set up in your body. You can increase or decrease it as you wish. Now, one last question: why did you request to look like Gojo Satoru, a face that resembles someone else?" he asked, still in his meditative position.

I was happy to answer, "Heh, so I can be the Adonis in the new world where I am going. I want to see beautiful girls fight for my love and call me oppa," I replied with a smug, stupid grin plastered on my face. I was truly excited to see how the world of handsome men would feel like. However, the answer I got from him was not what I expected.

"Sorry to disappoint you, child. It is true that some ladies desire a handsome outer shell from their partner and can do various things to keep the other party interested in them… "

"But if true love is what you want to find, face and body don't even come into the list," he explained.

Instead of thanking him for the information, I blurted out, "F*** you." It was a pretty dumb thing to say to a being who could just Thanos snap me without even thinking. To my surprise, he just laughed at my response and patted my shoulder appearing near me.

"Child, I hope you live your life without any regrets," he said with these parting words before sending me to the world I had chosen.
