Chapter 17 - Preparation

The world of Remnant is familiar to me from the plot of the animated anime web work RWBY, which, if I'm not mistaken, translates as Red, White, Black, and Yellow. In general, this story began quite pleasant and "childish", if you do not pay attention to the details and do not think out the plot yourself. A world in which there is the main villain, who was previously quite an ordinary "princess", locked in a tower, who was ready for a lot for love. Two gods somehow quarreled with this princess because she somehow deceived them or one of them. This is if you remember superficially.

The elder brother is the God of Light who created the "power of life" and the younger is the God of Darkness who created the "agents of death" Grimm. Both of these brothers were at enmity for a long time until they came to a compromise and together created life on the planet, including people.

These people had magic and for a long time, everything was fine, until one daughter of a "cruel father", locked in a magic tower, began to try to call people in the neighborhood with magic so that at least someone would save her.

As a result, there was a hero who was able to get into the tower, although the applicants were dying before and saved the girl, and they had a love ... as it is clear, this girl was the main villain of the whole series, who, because of the death of her love, went to absolutely everything to get him back ... in the process, she became truly immortal because of the curses of the gods and could not die no matter how much she tried.

In the end, the God of Light, before leaving the planet, resurrected this "hero" and gave him the task of collecting four relics that would call them back to the world. And after that, these gods flew away, one of them rammed the Moon on its way, which broke into different fragments and this served as the name of the world the Remnant ... and before that, the God of Darkness destroyed humanity.

In any case, someone is still alive and besides people, Fauns have appeared people with signs of different animals, rabbit ears, or bull horns. The lovers were very happy to meet and reunite ... but over time, the hero betrayed the girl, afraid of her cruel actions, and because of this their children died and the woman finally fell into darkness.

"Your blood pressure has increased." Cortana's voice rang out.

"Yes, sorry I got distracted." I returned the meaningfulness in my gaze again. "Yes, you're doing everything right. Leave this new element in the center and close the case tightly." I said, watching the mechanical claws behind the protective glass under the control of AI finish a simple version of the reactor. I could easily have done it myself, but this new element was obtained by me using alchemy, so I…

"Boom"

It was not a weak explosion under the protective glass that caused the mechanical "hands" of the Cornata to become unusable, but cracks began to appear on the glass itself ... and I strengthened them with the help of alchemy. However, not that too much.

"This element reacted too quickly." Cortana said.

"I see... " I nodded. After a couple of minutes, I created another similar element and left it under the neighboring protective glass, and I went into the Chat.

Rias Gremory: The First Mission?!

Shinoa Hiragi: Apparently yes.

Hermione Granger: I was knocked down by this sound in the process of potion-making! Because of this, my boiler exploded!

Rias Gremory: Is it that bad?

Hermione Granger: ... my first real and well-deserved reprimand from the professor because of a poorly done job... and he's right, I failed the potion.

Rias Gremory: Where is this Beacon Academy located? I've never heard of such a thing in my world.

Erina Nakiri: Me too. Besides Tootsuki Academy, I know a couple more, but I haven't heard of Beacon.

Erina Nakiri: And why is there some kind of eccentric experimenter in my world?!

Anthony (Administrator): Have you had time to look already?

Erina Nakiri: Yes... and am I really that arrogant? I'm just saying that their chef skills are negligible, that's all…

Shinoa Hiragi: That's all…

Shinoa Hiragi: So does the omniscient administrator-kun know anything about this Beacon Academy? Or is he busy dreaming about our young and seductive bodies?

Anthony (Administrator): About "our", are you talking about Rias?)

Shinoa Hiragi: Baka administrator…

Rias Gremory: Does Tony-kun like my body?

Anthony (Administrator): Have you seen yourself in the mirror? If only an impotent or a homo didn't like you... and the latter had every chance to return to the "bright" side.

Hermione Granger: Stop it!

Shinoa Hiragi: What do you mean by "this"?

Hermione Granger: All this!

Anthony (Administrator): It's nice to embarrass Hermione, of course, but let's talk about the mission. I have some information about this world, but I don't have a "Copy of Memory". This world is not as dangerous as mine or the charming demoness Rias…

Rias Gremory: Why did you stop the explanations on such a note?)

Anthony (Administrator): I just wanted to. So, It's not as dangerous as our worlds with her, but It can still compare with the world of Shinoa, I think. Although it may not be in all aspects, but still. There are creatures "Grimm", which are animal-like creatures eager to kill all people. They were created by the God of Darkness…

I had to spend a little time explaining the world of the Remnant, their technologies, and the dangers that are there. This includes Hunters, dust, Fauns, White Fang and Salem, that is, consider the "goddess" of darkness, even if this is far from the case. But she's strong enough. In addition, I sent them a screenshot of additional tasks.

Hermione Granger: What scary worlds exist... and our mission in this world?

Anthony (Administrator): Yes. We need to protect the academy, and the people and destroy the Grimm. If you're scared and you're not sure... you still have a week to think, but don't forget that you don't have to go.

Shinoa Hiragi: I'm wondering. This world has some parallels with mine.

Rias Gremory: Judging by Tony-kun's description, these Grimms are not particularly strong, but they take numbers.

Anthony (Administrator): As far as I remember, that's exactly how things are. Although, of course, there are some exceptions in the form of very old Grimms. In addition, this "Aura" that living beings have in this world can be more than useful if it is possible to purchase it in a store.

Hermione Granger: Sounds very dangerous... why should the mission consist of killing these Grimms?

Anthony (Administrator): The main task is to protect the academy, not to kill the Grimm, so this is extra. It is difficult to become truly strong without making an effort to do so. Hermy, there is magic in your world... something that can work miracles and everything-everything that can come to mind if you know how to do it. Not fully studying magic would be... wasteful. Especially now that you know about other worlds. And believe me, Dumbledore is at the bottom of the list of strong personalities… Wouldn't you like to become the most powerful witch in your world?

Shinoa Hiragi: Administrator-kun seduces innocent Hermione-chan to the dark side.

Erina Nakiri: Magic... judging by what I saw in the Memory Copy, you can use it to make a lot more dishes! With the help of potions, it is quite possible to create delicious additives, and syrups ... I would take this chance, it's a pity that there is no magic in my world.

Shinoa Hiragi: Who's talking about what, you're all about food.

Erina Nakiri: I am Erina Nakiri, a member of the Nakiri family and a representative of the Elite Ten and I take the tenth place there! Of course, I often talk about food and cooking, because this is my passion and my purpose!

Shinoa Hiragi: The purpose of constantly cooking? Isn't it kind of, I don't know, shallow?...

Anthony (Administrator): You shouldn't have started talking about it... F

Erina Nakiri: Shallow?! Shallow!!!

Erina Nakiri: SHALLOW!!!!!!!

Erina Nakiri: YOU!!! YOU!!! You don't understand anything at all! Cooking is not just throwing everything into a saucepan and putting it over the fire! This is art! Plebeians like you don't understand this!

Erina Nakiri: You are generally shameless, constantly talking about vulgarities!

Hermione Granger: I agree!

Shinoa Hiragi: …

Erina Nakiri: I will not send you my dishes of art anymore! Hm.

Rias Gremory: That's right. It's your own fault... but you're going to keep sending me, aren't you?

Anthony (Administrator): Definitely a demon.

Shinoa Hiragi: Were there doubts?

Anthony (Administrator): Not at all. Rias also sends Erina a lot of products from her world, it doesn't cost her anything, she's the Princess of Gremory.

Talk by talk, but I had to make plans about the mission. I know roughly what will be waiting for me there and there are not that many dangers for me with my current strength... probably. It is difficult to assess the level of danger without accurate data, but remembering the footage of the anime series, I can't remember anyone except Salem herself who could pose a huge danger. People with aura are very strong... but Albedo was an artificial man, the best creation of a god capable of fighting a dragon with his bare hands.

Of course, in the world of DxD, my strength is very small now, but in RWBY ... especially if I try to bring assimilation to the maximum possible this week. Now, with Albedo, assimilation has stopped at 30%, but even so, I am strong and fast enough to reach speeds of three hundred kilometers per hour in spurts. I think hypersound will not be a problem for me, especially since with magic and alchemy, my capabilities grow at times. This, by the way, also applies to the demons of the DxD world. If it wasn't for their demonic strength, then most of them wouldn't be so strong.

I managed to create a suitable element for the presentation of the reactor to investors already at night. It was much more active than the same Palladium, even if it was more inert when compared with more active metals. But it gave out two hundred and forty-four times more energy than palladium... and the Stark element gave out energy more than five hundred times comparing it with palladium. But I didn't have a tesseract for a better understanding, so I consider it a success. Moreover, over time I will find more powerful elements.

Chat Points: 4953

Now I had almost five thousand Chat Points that had accumulated due to the daily accrual. I had a thought to acquire the figure of the evil piece - King, which would give a powerful boost to my abilities, but I don't really want to become a demon in the DC world.

In addition, there were thoughts of acquiring the Eighth Metal, which is considered the metal of the gods. Theoretically, I could purchase two hundred and fifty grams of this metal. Or a hundred grams of the Ninth metal. Well, or five grams of the Tenth... but no matter how much I would like it, it's counterproductive.

It is also possible to buy a bloodline of angels, which will cost 1500 Chat Points, but this bloodline will need to be developed. And, to be honest, I have already found the best way to become stronger and more functional in the short term.

Senjutsu (B) 1000 CP

Senjutsu, or the energy of Ki is in all living things, this technique allows you to take your aura, spiritual, and life force under control, which ultimately increases your physical abilities many times, and also allows your "Chakra" or "Ki" to directly harm the enemy's spirit.

In addition, this technique also has Touki, or in translation "Fighting Spirit", which further increases physical abilities and improves control over one's life force. But besides the usual Senjutsu In ranga, there is still something more interesting.

Senjutsu (B+) 1800 CP

Judging by the description, this Senjutsu technique is "perfect" and allows you to maximize and "improve" the flow of your Ki, as well as give it easier access than the previous version of the technique. That is, it is not an ability that can be simply activated and that's it, it is a technique that gives access and "opens" the door to the energy of the world and its life force.

"Win or lose" I decided to buy a Senjutsu (B+) and it's good that I did it in an underground complex without witnesses because at the same moment "invisible" energy dispersed from me, cracks began to appear on the floor, as well as on the ceiling. I felt as if the previously unused faucet had finally started working and water began to flow through it drop by drop, and it was amazing. As if a long-lost feeling has started working again, giving greater sensitivity and lightness.

I literally figured out how to control the flow of energy in my body, which I hadn't even guessed before. A wave passed through my very soul and body, opening locks. In this world, I would hardly be able to learn how to manage vital energy, at least by training so accurately. In the world of Rias, this is quite possible.

Around my hands, I noticed a pale glow of the Ki, which by my will became more intense when I accelerated the movement of this energy through my body, or vice versa static when I wanted to slow down this flow.

"Cortana, get ready to record speed changes. Also use energy sensors, just test them at different energies." I said while walking towards the elevator in order to go down to the underground floors. I also turned my gaze to the characteristics, shown to me by Gacha:

Name: Anthony Joseph Luthor

Race: Primordial Human

Title: Brother of the villain, Fratricide, Administrator, Head of LexCorp

Total Power: 8-C (Power exceeding even an ordinary "superhuman". The ability to influence medium-sized buildings or structures, such as large factories or some shopping malls or an equivalent area of space)

Assimilated Characters:

Anthony Edward "Tony" Stark (A) (85%)

Albedo (B) (30%)

Abilities: Senjutsu (B+)

Gacha Points: 66

Previously, the "power" fluctuated between 9-A and 8-C, but now there are no fluctuations. The very possibility of taking control of Ki spurred the development of my powers. But in the world of RWBY, the aura still constantly protects the user, which is more than interesting for me.
