"We can't become what we need to be by remaining what we are."
- Oprah Winfrey
....
The first thing to do is absorb the cards that give abilities and it's okay to absorb now. The Character Assimilation Slot, Custom Visual Perk, Imbue Card Mechanic, Miss Militia Shard Power, Super Power Store and the surprisingly OP Minecraft Inventory.
The Minecraft Inventory is self-explanatory, a game-like inventory with 36 slots and 9 of these slots can be used for quick access. Even staying floating in my line of sight if I want. And I just willed to the object be brought to my hand.
Very useful.
It's not even 10pm yet, I can't resist. I'm going to escape to test my new skills in the forest.
Leaving my room I'm going to get a portable lamp and put it in my new inventory. The lamp enters with no problems. Nice.
Returning to my room, I take the blanket and place it parallel to the wall with me in the middle, using D4C I already find myself in the forest where I always train.
I can use D4C much better now that I've fully assimilated Funny Valentine, in fact I feel like I can go to other universes too. But I see no reason to test it now.
When I focus on that power, I can see the ramifications of the Multiverse and the places I can go. But I cannot, with just one look, judge whether that universe is good or bad. Crazy shit could be happening there.
Better not to risk it.
Dr. Strange, in the last movie I watched, said that "The Multiverse is a concept about which we know frighteningly little". Better not go traveling and encounter a universe dominated by Knull or something.
Taking the lamp out of the inventory I decide to change location and go to the waterfall for the first time.
After about 10/15 min of running between the trees I find myself in an open place with the constant sound of water falling.
The Carvalho Farm waterfall is not one of the highest, I believe it must be between 40 or 50 meters. But seeing it up close, you can't help but be impressed.
The crescent moon in the sky illuminates the open space and reflects in the water. Giving more luminosity than I expected. I move to a nearby rock that can double as a chair, place the portable lamp on the ground, and open the gacha screens to start using the cards.
I will assimilate the strongest characters first.

I'm finally assimilating people with super human physical capabilities, no wonder the percentage starts so low. I decided not to absorb the Infinity Castle power after reading the description.
Demon-blood Art: Infinity Castle – Using a room of at least 4mx4mx4n as a base, the user can use this ability to grow infinite other rooms or spaces connected with the base space. The user also possesses dominion over the space, being able to manipulate and alter it at will. The user can also spawn portals at any location to transport people outside the fortress or to anywhere within it.
So I need a place to start my Infinity Fortress, I will probably use my basement. But I also don't know if I need to keep concentrating all the time to make the place grow.
If so, it would be better to delegate to a subordinate. Anyway, I won't use it now, so will stay as a card for the moment.
Now bringing my attention to the items in front of me. Huhuhu
After having used the characters' cards, because in the case of Starkiller it's a package, I now have some of his robes and even Star Killer Sith Armor on hand. Very cool by the way.
And not one or two, but FOUR LIGHTSABERS. Two reds and two blues.
Haha ha
Oh my god. I almost have a nerdgasm.
Picking up two lightsabers I light them up.
*Kpisssssh*
Is there anything cooler than that?
I begin to sway in the air, testing and feeling familiarity returning to my body. Undoubtedly Starkiller card in effect.
"ZWoon, Zwoon" (A.N.: This isn't lightsaber noise, just the MC mouthing ouy and being retarded.)
I switch the grip mode to a reverse grip. And stab the lightsaber into the rock I was sitting on previously.
It passes smoothly like a stick in wet sand.
Okay, let's stop fooling around, otherwise I'll be here all night with just the lightsabers.
Storing all of Starkiller things in my Minecraft Inventory, I shift my attention to testing the abilities I've gained from the cards.
Let's start with the Force.
I close my eyes, trying to feel the Force.
It comes naturally to me. I don't think this universe has a "Force". But I can use it without any problems, as if I had a "Force seed" in myself instead of having a connection with an exterior form of power.
Good to know this. There's no speed force in Marvel, so if I gain the Flash I won't have any problems. And I won't have to worry about other people getting access to my powers that come from external dimensions.
Yes, Doom. I'm talking to you.
Opening my eyes and exhaling I place my hands in front of my body and PUSH.
The waterfall stops and starts to rise. Am I Shiryu?
I didn't expect to be so strong at first. Starkiller is too OP.
But my control is missing. I'm not gently leading the water from the waterfall through the air. The water is exploding upwards, and in various directions as if the water is slamming into an invisible wall.
Stopping using the Force, I relax my shoulders and watch the waterfall return to normal and the water in the air begins to fall like a small rain.
Continuing with my tests, I try to use Force Lightning, but to no avail. I try other tricks and special moves I've seen in games.
Like condensing the Force on myself and release like a omnidirectional blast, but no sucess again.
I think the percentage is too low, huh?
Come to think of it, I could use D4C from the start. But a low percentage doesn't just mean less strength in the powers, it means that some powers and more complicated techniques are impossible to replicate.
That's where training comes in. To speed up assimilation.
To test the theory I try to use Haki. I can feel something, similar to the Force. But I can't cover my body, my eyes with this.
I shift my focus to Miles card, and I can't use electricity or turn invisible either.
I approach a tree and jump.
I touch my hand into the bark of the tree and it stays there, glued to it.
But basic skills is okay, huh?
I start to climb Spider-man style, when I reach the top I sit on a branch that can support me and focus on my hand.
Mochi begins to be secreted from my hand. I move it. From side to side. I make a ball, a rope, and then more ropes and start playing with my mochi manipulation.
Mochi Mochi no mi is a paramecia, Katakuri can transform into Mochi because he has awakenedhis Devil fruit. I'm nowhere near replicating that feat, yet.
Controlling the Mochi I send it as fast as possible to a nearby tree.
*bam*
The tree is split in half.
At least the strength is considerable.
Speaking of strength. I jump off the tree and land on the ground with no problems. And I head towards the tree I just destroyed.
I watch the lower half of the trunk, which is still rooted to the ground, and grab it with both hands and pull.
The whole thing pops out of the ground like I'm pulling a carrot, not a tree much thicker than my torso.
My physical attributes are already high.
Higher assimilation percentages will give me more experience and control of the characters, and with this unlock new abilities and skills. There are probably techniques that have strength requirements too, which I haven't reached yet. As expected.
Looking at the fallen tree on the ground, I grab it with one hand and toss it into the river like a twig. I am much stronger.
I hope I don't grow to 5m tall like Katakuri.
After that, I reach the power of Miss Militia, the energy that can transform into weapons.
The green blur thing comes out of my hand and becomes a Beretta M9, a military Knife, AK-47, bazooka M1A1. Easy to use, very intuitive.
While I'm at it I'll try to change the look with my perk. I can also easily change color; to red, yellow, pink... I can even put some effects like electricity running over the weapon or light particles.
There is no change in power. Just visual, but it's cool anyway.
After that I decided to check the Super Power Store CYOA more closely. There are several types of powers: physical, mental, kinetic and even some items. The most expensive are 400CP and the cheapest 100Cp.
I think I'll just buy the resistances. It has resistance to poison, mind control and others. The level is not very high, someone much stronger can probably overcome these resistances. But it's a start.
If I were on a lower level world, these powers would be cheats. As an example it has a Time Control power. But it's pretty restrictive.
I would make a bubble around me where everything would move at half speed. It would be more support than special move, only in a world like... like...
I just have the craziest idea!
I look at a lot of my cards and think maybe it will work.
If it works, I have the potential to become a powerhouse. I will need the Travel Ticket and lots of Power Boost Cards.
I will test it after I get back to New York.
This plan in my head would solve a lot of my problems. But if I took a month off now, my grandparents would notice differences in my body.
By the way... I was forgetting something.
I walk to the river and put my leg in it.
And a feeling of weakness rises through my body.
Devil Fruit weaknesses, huh?
And I can't use my Mochi Mochi no mi anymore. But I can use other powers without problem. So falling in the water is not game over for me. I can use other abilities to escape.
But weakness isn't something that I want
I use a Weakness Removal card without hesitation.
After that I put my leg back in the water and the weakness doesn't come anymore. And I can generate Mochi without any problems.
Nice.
I don't know the limit, like there are natural weaknesses.
Can I remove a fire power weakness against water?
These are laws of nature... Probably just unnatural weaknesses like these from the werewolves, vampires and the like.
I think I'll go back and do my daily meditation session.
Steady and Always. Improve my mental defenses, I want to know now the difference, after all I have a individual force sensitive being assimilated.
.....
Next Day
"Yeah, just like that. You press on the neck and pull the trigger" my grandfather instructs me.
No, I'm not killing anyone. I'm helping to vaccinate the cattle on the farm.
"I don't need to put it in a vein or something?" I ask.
"No. Any place will do. The vaccine will be absorbed by the meat itself." He answers me.
"So wouldn't it be better to put it somewhere else that would hurt less? The neck is so fragile..." I keep asking questions.
"That's true, but we need to make a little profit too right? On the neck it prevents damage to the meat, such as bruises and abscesses. And it makes it difficult for the cow to access it, so it doesn't bite or lick to get infected." He responds making a lot of sense.
It's true, neck meat is the least valuable, so it wouldn't be a problem if it was damaged. It would be stupid to damage a more expensive place.
After another hour in the routine we are now returning home to the farm.
We are on horseback. It is quite relaxing to ride a horse leisurely in nature.
"That group looked pretty bad." I comment referring to the cattle that I just vaccinated.
"Those are sick, so they're in a separate area to avoid contaminating others," he replies.
"Isn't a cattle vaccine expensive? Is it okay to spend it on cattle that might not survive?" I ask a little surprised.
"In large quantities, vaccine is expensive, yes. And half of that group won't survive," he replies to me with a sigh.
"But I'm not doing this for the ones who will die, I'm doing this for the ones who will survive. They are fighting this harm that afflicts them... The least I can do is give each of them a chance, right?" he wisely responds to me while smiling.
"...I think you're right, Grandpa." I reply after a while.
Give everyone a chance, huh?
After a comfortable silence my grandfather resumes the conversation.
"So… did you think about what your grandmother and I offer? You can live with us if you want" he says looking straight ahead.
"I thought... and I still think I need to get back to New York." I answer. This has been a more or less frequent topic of discussion. My grandmother being the most vocal in wanting me here.
"Hmm. Right" he just says.
"Only that? Aren't you going to try to convince me or something?" I ask a little surprised. "I hope you're not taking it personally, Grandfather. I love you both. But there are still things to do in New York. I hope you understand." I try to explain myself.
"Haha ha. Don't worry, I'm not feeling hurt, if that's what you're worried about…" he says laughing out loud as he approaches with the horse to grab my shoulder.
"I don't know about all of your circumstances, my son... But I trust that you'll make the best choice. In U.S.A. you will have more opportunities, better education... The little bird needs to leave the nest at some time" he says smiling
"I just want to say two things. The first is that if you're tired, angry, depressed... those things. You can come here anytime. Our doors will always be open to you, my son." He says seriously looking into my eyes now.
"And the second is a little piece of advice..." he begins.
"Look at this whole place. Big huh?" he turns to the farm opening his arms.
I nod.
"I can't keep this place alone. Many people help me here, your grandmother, my employees, friends... I understand you better than you think, Hector. You're like your father, you like to do things alone. Keep it to yourself and work on it internally." He looks at me again.
And he is not wrong.
"But if you want to have great achievements, you're going to need help." He concludes.
"You didn't tell us anything about any friends or girlfriends in New York, so you probably don't have anyone you'd trust with your eyes closed there, right?" he continues
Bullseye.
"I want you to open up a little more to people. At least try to find someone who can watch your back. You will be alone a world away from us. That's why your grandmother worries so much. And we, in our simple lives, can't even imagine the problems of a big city like New York" he finishes looking deeply into my eyes.
*sigh* I understand his concern. Unfortunately, there are things I cannot share. There's only one thing I can talk about right now.
"I will try, grandpa. Can't promise any success. But I will try."
"That's all I need to hear, Hector." He says smiling relieved.
After a comfortable silence he opens his mouth again.
"Race home? Whoever wins gets more of grandmother's cake." he asks starting to accelerate his horse and laughing out loud.
Not the cake your old fox.
"It's on, Old Man" I accept the challenge.
He bursts out laughing and darts forward.
"Fuck. Damn cowboy"
I lose that race badly. But my grandfather didn't mind me eating as much cake as he did, even though he won the race.
...
Unknown Place in the Nine Realms
In a brightly lit room, a blonde woman in a green dress that does not hide her impressive curves is lying on a comfortable couch.
She is reading a old and thick book that is floating. And from time to time small exotic fruits float into her mouth from a bowl nearby.
If anyone from Earth were to observe this room the first thing they would think is a movie set for a Harry Potter movie or something like that. On one wall are books old and incredibly thick.
On another wall are items that wouldn't be out of place at a renaissance fair.
There is also a huge painting of the same woman on one wall. Exposing her narcissism.
"Don't you know it's not elegant to sneak into a lady's chambers?" the woman asks apparently to nothing. But at the same time she shoots a beam of green light from her fingertips in a seemingly random direction.
Before the beam reaches the wall, however, it is dissipated by an invisible force.
"And is it a good form of greeting to cast a spell on a guest?" A male voice reveals itself along with a tall man with long black hair, that reaches his shoulders, also dressed in green. But with golden highlights.
"If you're the guest, Loki... Now, get out." The woman speaks without even giving a glance at the man who identifies himself as Loki, The God of Mischief.
"That's it? We can't even have a little chat? It's been so long since we've seen each other, Amora" Loki is unfazed by Amora's unfriendly attitude.
"Nothing from you can be good, Loki. You just destroyed my good mood for the day. But I'm curious... Where have you been these past few years? Since that incident with the Frost Giants, you and Thor have disappeared from Asgard. Daddy ground you boys?" Amora asks looking at Loki for any reaction.
Loki's smiling face only changes for a fraction of an instant, but he soon resumes his smile and answers back. "Worried about your dear Thor? I thought you would have gotten over it by... how many were there anyway? 300 rejections?" Loki says feigning innocence.
"OUT! GET OUT! I don't know what kinds of tricks or schemes were formed in that twisted God Of Mischief head of yours. But I want nothing to do with you!" Amora angrily exclaims, the neglect she receives from Thor has always been a sore spot in her mind. Her, the most beautifull woman of all Nine Realms .. Rejected by a man. She and Thor are meant to be together. Strength, beauty, status... The two combine perfectly.
"What if I say that my tricks and schemes can give you what you crave so much? Thor..." Loki replies with a Sweet voice.
"...I'm listening." Amora speaks after a moment.
Loki gave his first real smile since he walked into that room.
.....
A.N.:
Hello, guys and galls.
I read some comments and reviews and will address a few things here.
Some people will complain that the last chapter was just an internal monologue. Well, there wasn't much he could do when he was thinking about his options. But I've listened to you and I understand that it can get pretty boring, so I'll try to add more dialogue. And if it's not possible I'll try to switch to other P.O.V.s like Loki and Amora at the end of this chapter.
I saw a review that the story is incomprehensible. English is my third language, bas is really that bad. Damn. I'm bad. I will try to study more.
And about the reslease schedule... I'm on vacation for now. That's why I write as much as I can. but I think I'll stick to 2 chapters a week. Try 4k words per chapter. I need to research plos and characters too.
I think that's all.
Thank you for all the love, I know the story is not perfect but I was happy to post and see how many people liked it.
Thank you very much.
Till next time.
