8% DxD: Rise Of Sloth / Chapter 1: Ch1: A lazy Start

Kapitel 1: Ch1: A lazy Start

In the bustling and busy streets of Tokyo, Japan, a young boy was walking by the side of the street in a particularly special manner.

The way he walked seemed to be as if he was carrying himself on the ground and could collapse on the ground at any moment.

After walking for a while he reached light traffic and stood in his place awaiting for the light to switch to green so he could move on his way.

looking at the timer of the traffic light that showed seventy four, the boy simply dropped himself on the ground and lay down there comfortably as if the hard ground was some kind of luxurious bed.

People that were around him gave him weird looks but alas they minded their own business instead of asking why he was laying on the ground.

Or it seemed to be like that but then a man out of curiosity had to ask him why he's doing that.

"Young man are you alright?"

The young boy without even looking at the man just gave a thumbs up.

"It's too much of a hassle to wait all that time while standing." The boy answered which left the people around him speechless.

'He's too lazy!!' All of them thought at the same time.

'They are probably thinking that I'm too lazy to even stand for a minute, well not like they are wrong.' The boy thought to himself Noticing the look on their face.

'Wait why am I wasting my energy thinking about what others think about me? I'm straying away from the ways of sloth.'

A sound took the boy out from his thoughts and he took out his phone from his pocket.

Seeing an unfamiliar number he was going to decline or ignore the call, ignoring preferably as declining it took more effort than ignoring it but he decided to answer the call and see who had disrupted his moment of bliss.

[Hello? am I talking with Kevin Nineleven? ]

"Yes."

[Good then I have called the right number.]

"So who are you?"

[I am he who is above you.]

"Weird way of speaking but I guess you're the guy that lives upstairs, if it's about the dead body in the backyard then it's not on me."

[Dead body...? Let's ignore that. I am not your neighbour as I come from a higher place than him.]

"Higher place... perhaps you are the thief that entered our residence from the rooftop. Then again it can't be you, he died for an experiment of a friend of mine."

[...What experiment?]

"When my friend caught the thief, he threw him from the rooftop to check if the fall damage was on in this server."

[I am at a loss for words. Sigh... I'm not that guy either I come from even a higher place than him too.]

"I get it now. You're an astronaut or an airplane pilot, even an alien. That is if they exist."

[No young man. I am god, the grand creator of this universe and more.]

"..."

[You there young one?]

"Yeah just was wondering when our roleplay ends. as fun as it is, I need to get up and walk across the street."

[Young man I am truly your god.]

"And what does god want with me?"

[You see each person in this world has a book dedicated to them which has recorded all the events they have gone through in their life.]

"I see."

[At the end of this book, the way of their death and how their life comes to an end is written.]

"And?" Kevin said as he got up with sheer will as if it was the hardest job in the world and began crossing the street.

[Well you see my assistants made a small mistake and wrote the way you die on the page that belongs to today's date.]

"...You sure are incapable and clumsy for a god."

[I shall ignore that and proceed to tell you how you will die.]

"Sure."

[You see that truck over there?]

He turned his head towards a truck that was on the other side of the street.

"Yes?"

[The driver of that truck is a guy whom you harassed and cyber bullied.]

"Hmm I can't remember him as I did that to way too many people."

[Even though I know this it still amazes me how you talk nonchalantly about it.]

"A habit I picked up after hanging out with completely normal friends."

[Ah right that doctor friend of yours died just a few days ago.]

"Well that's interesting. What a shame he was a great 'doctor', sadly his body fell short of that brilliant brain of his."

[We can talk about him later. Now back onto what we were talking about. The driver will go mad upon seeing you and will try to run you over with his truck.]

"Is that how I die?"

[No you survive it only to be taken care of the same fat nurse that you body shamed her on the internet.]

"So I guess she's the one that will end me. Not gonna lie I really would have preferred if it was hot woman that did that instead of that fatso."

[No even after the shit you made her go through, she didn't kill you and just made some minor problems for you.]

"Then how do I die?"

[Seeing that you lived through the first accident, the truck guy calls his friends and they all ran over you with their own trucks to make sure you are dead.]

"And with that the trilogy is complete as I taste death thanks to the power of friendship."

[...Boy when are you going to take this seriously?]

"When I have a good sleep."

He then continued his way and just as the guy behind the call had said, the rider of the truck chased after him to hit him.

"So it wasn't a joke..." As he said that, he stood in his place and opened his arms as if he was welcoming an old friend and was waiting for their embrace.

The rider of the truck thought of this as a sign of provocation and increased his speed which at the moment it connected with its target, Kevin was thrown to other side and rolled on the ground several times.

"Ah it seems I'm dying... Well at least I didn't die due to the power of friendship, if I did that guy would have laughed at me. Right he's also dead."

As Kevin lay on the ground and was bleeding profusely, memories of his life began- "Can you stop that? I rather die peacefully instead of remembering those memories."

...Alright.

And so Kevin closed his eyes and awaited for his death. From the expression on his face one would assume that he was sleep and dreaming of something joyful.

Kevin Pov

[Wake up young man.] A voice called out for me but I was busy keeping my eyes closed and waiting for my death.

"Can't you see I'm trying to die here?"

[Well you've achieved that, that's why I'm asking you to open your eyes.]

'Oh so I'm already dead.'

Opening my eyes, the first thing that I was met was a blinding white light. If I wasn't dead I would have thought my friends had flash banged my house as a joke.

After my eyes adjusted to the brightness and the blinding effect subsidized, my eyes roamed around the place I was.

My eyes met with a figure that was sitting behind a desk and signing some papers.

the said figure didn't have any appearance or it seemed that my eyes couldn't see through his silhouette.

[About my appearance, you cannot perceive it due to your mortal and weak soul.]

"That's a nice way of saying skill issue." I remarked after hearing what the mysterious figure said.

He coughed slightly and continued [Anyways it's nice to meet you Kevin. I am god or at least something similar to it by your world's standards.]

"Didn't expect to meet the top g in my life, wait I'm dead so it doesn't count. So to what do I owe the pleasure of meeting god itself?"

[As I told you before about the book of life, you weren't supposed to die today and as compensation for that I will be giving you another chance at life.] God said.

"No thanks. Living once was enough I don't want to waste any more of my energy for it again."

Imagine having to go through puberty again, can't be me.

[What if I reincarnate you in a world of fantasy with different species, powers and magic?]

"That's even worse, if I'm in a world like that I have to work on my powers so I won't die again that easily which itself is a time taking task."

[Truly lazy to your bones. What if I gave you a power that works with that lazy attitude of yours?] God offered.

"Add a system or a helper that would do the work for me and we have a deal."

[Hmm system is a bit cliché and a person not long ago took one for himself, so I'll arrange something different for you.]

"Thanks. Now tell me the price."

[What price young man?] Top G asked.

"There's no such thing as free food in this world and given that you are god capable of killing me like that even mistakenly, it is weird that you want to compensate me when you could have just ignored telling me about my death."

He began to clap his hand [Wonderful. I did expect something like that from you. Your friend was like this too.]

My friend? oh he did say my friend that was a doctor died. "Did you talk with Azrail like this too?"

[No someone else took care of the matter but I did hear about what he did and is doing from the person responsible for him.]

"I see." Good for him I guess, hope he reincarnated in a world that has cat girls.

[As for you, I genuinely don't need anything for you. I simply want to see what a friend of that guy can achieve because he sure is doing some interesting things.] God spoke in a found matter about what Azrail was doing, perhaps he had conducted his experiments there too.

F in the chat for all the poor people living in the same verse as him.

"So now you're reincarnating me or do I need to go through an examination or something like that?"

[First I will assess your karma points which is one of the main factors for your reincarnation.]

"What's the karma point?"

[They are points that you've gained through your life by the impact you had on the world and those around you. They are divided into two categories: Positive and negative.]

"And?"

[And the points are being calculated only the end result of what you did is considered not the intent you had while doing them.]

Oh I'm fucked.

"By the way can you talk normally? I feel like I'm hearing your voice through a filter."

[Oh right I forgot that you are a mortal.]

after a brief pause he continued "Is it fine now?"

"Yeah I can hear your voice better now."

*ding*

A bell like sound came from god's table which gained our attention, he then picked up the device that made the noise.

[The calculation is done.] A systematic voice stated.

A hologram appeared from the device which showed a lot of information and numbers on it.

[Positive Karma:0]

[Negative Karma:0]

[Remaining positive Karma:0]

"Huh!?" God exclaimed shocked seeing the number.

"Umm so this basically means that I did nothing good nor bad in my life? but I'm sure I did quite a lot of questionable things."

"It seems the reason for zero negative and positive Karma points is that you haven't directly and indirectly impacted the world."

"You sure about that? I'm quite sure that my negative Karma points should be high with my positive being lower than it."

"It is what is. either something went wrong during calculations or the information is correct. Now let's see the rest of the information."

[1/2]

[Reincarnator number: 2145]

[Threat level: - ]

[Alignment: True Neutral]

[Essence: Lazy bum seeking salvation]

"Why is my threat level none existent?"

"It is because of your lazy nature." God said in an amused tone.

"Oh..." I mean it does have a point, if I don't do anything then I technically am not a threat. "What is Essence?"

"Essence is, in a sense, a person's soul formation at an existential level. People can decide not to act upon it, but it's who they are at their core. It can be related to their personalities, abilities, and so on." He explained.

If Azrail was here he would have said something like (basically, a person's default setting.)

We then looked at the rest of the information.

[2/2]

[World: High School DxD]

[Reincarnation Status: Approved]

[Gender: Male]

[Race: Devil]

[Potential: Undecided]

High school DxD? Haven't heard of that world. Hopefully the name suggests a peaceful school lif-forget it, My race is devil so this world is definitely a fucked up one.

"Well that's interesting." God remarked.

Interesting my ass, Couldn't it choose a better world for me?

"What about my potential? It says undecided."

"Your potential will be decided by the world itself, as it takes many things into account, and with your threat level being none existent, I can't make any guesses. If that wasn't enough, that world's intelligence falls on the lower ends, so I can't do anything about it."

"I see thanks for the information. So care to give me some information about the world I'm reincarnating to?"

"Unfortunately I can't say much about it as it breaks the rules. but I can say that it is an interesting world with questionable logic."

"Like what?" It can't be that bad right?

"For example a certain person's power level increases because of his desire to touch boobs."

"..." It's worse than I thought. that being said I wouldn't mind having power similar to that.

"Now what should I do for your powers? your race is already chosen and if I take into account your nature, then I have the perfect ability for you."

"Don't forget the helper you mentioned." I quickly added.

"Hmm how about a maid exclusive to you?"

"Deal." I answered without any hesitation.

Maids are great, they know how to cook, clean and a lot more. Given the world I'm reincarnating to she might even be a fighter. What else would a man want in life other than a beautiful maid that takes care of your needs? right some homies.

Afterall it takes a man to be the best girl.

"Also, I will be reincarnating you to a clan that is a good match with your attitude."

Hmm if we go by my nature that is lazy and my race that is devil, I can deduce that it might be a clan related to sin of sloth. If I'm not wrong the demon with that sin was called belphegor.

"What about my power and maid?"

"As for your power, you have to discover it yourself. As for the maid, you are free to choose a character you like from any work of fiction you've read."

fiction only? shame it could have been funny to have a certain failed Austrian artist as my maid. Actually screw that he might start another war, not that I'm against it.

Now who should I choose? there are way too many good characters that could be a maid or would be amusing to see as a maid.

After a few minutes I finally decided on who I'm choosing.

"Boy I got an offer for you."

"Hm?"

"I will choose a maid for you from the dxd verse, as for her appearance it will take the appearance of whoever you think of."

"Without any loose strings?"

"About that..."

As expected every good thing needs to be nerfed by developers.

"I will link your souls together, meaning that if one of you dies the other will die as well."

"Cliché." I muttered.

"Do not worry as this soul link also allows you and her to use each other's powers and skills. What do you say?"

"Alright. How does the maid thing work tho?"

"The moment you arrive in that world, I will adjust the reality a little to make the process of her being your maid easier."

"Hm." I just nodded simply in response.

"Great. I will tell you about your maid more after you reincarnate. Good bye for now, hope you will survive till our next meeting."

As he said that, my vision began to get blurry and I lost consciousness.
