Lucky Reincarnation (DxD)

Ch 2 - My Infinite Prison

Haru felt his body floating. As if he was in a pool but couldn't feel the water. As Haru opened his eyes they were met with a flash as his eyes slowly adjusted to the myriad of distorted swirling colours. There were no colours that weren't in the mess of this dimensions scenery. The colours far off in the distance yet all around him. Besides the colours and Haru there was nothing around. No land, no sky, no stars or space. Most definitely no oxygen. Haru couldn't breathe, but yet he didn't have to. Haru remained floating in place. In space there was no up right position. This definitely applied to now with nothing to compare to.

Haru: {So he started me off in the dimensional gap. This was where Ophis and Great Red were born so it makes sense that the next Dragon God is born here. Let's see if this god got it right. It should be something like... Status.}

[Name: Haru Gakia
Species: Quasi Dragon God
Powers: Gacha (EX)

Techniques: N/A

Items: N/A]

A golden translucent screen popped up in front of Haru. Clearly visible even with the distortion of colours around him. And as he looked at the screen he smiled with excitement. He finally had power. Power to move past his normal boundaries. Surpass the prime of any normal human. But as he looked at his menu he realised there wasn't a lot. And as he read his race and power he got confused.

Haru: {Quasi Dragon God? What's that? Quasi? To be almost but not complete? An incomplete Dragon God?}

Haru pressed on the race name to see if anything would come up. And something did. Another translucent golden screen, above and parallel to the original screen.

[Quasi Dragon God
A punishment from the one true god. Based off of the Dragon God species in DxD however, it lacks any sort of power related to a dragon. Its strength is human, its durability is human, its speed is human. The only things this species has related to a Dragon God are its infinite lifespan, ability to survive in the Dimensions Gap and disfigured form created by god. However, unless you eat and drink you will suffer from the feeling of hunger and thirst.]

Haru looked at the screen. The description was so informative. It was a bit confusing but Haru could only stare at the screen. As his eyes widened... and he began to smile.

Haru: {This... this... THIS IS AMAZING! I'VE ALREADY SURPASSED MY PREVIOUS BODY IN BOTH LIFESPAN AND SURVIVAL POWER! YEAH IT'S STARTING FROM THE BOTTOM AGAIN BUT WHO CARES! THE TOUGH GRITTED TRAIL IS HALF THE FUN!}

Haru smiled in pure joy. While RoKo was all powerful he was not all knowing. Yes Haru was an experiment to see what would happen if someone had infinite drive and determination like an actual anime character. But what RoKo didn't know was, even if he took away all that drive and determination it would only slightly change Haru. Because what Haru loved most in anime was the tough journeys to greatness. Even with this terrible starting position. Haru was more than happy. He got Isekaied after all. He was in a different dimension after all. A different world. This was literally everything he asked for. It wasn't exactly what he asked for but he couldn't consider this even better. Someone was pushing back against him. Challenging him.

Haru: {Ok we've got a good race. Let's see what this Gacha is.}

Haru pressed on the Gacha power in front of him as a large slot machine appeared in front of him. Completely appearing from thin air. It was large, taller than him. Somehow floating exactly on the exact same footing Haru was. It had a plain appearance. It had no buttons, no coin slots, no flashing lights or rack to collect any winnings. Only one red lever to his right and 5 slots behind a sheet of what looked like plastic. The 5 slots with the letter: D, F, A, A, S.

Haru: {Ohhhhh. Is this going to be like... a power where I get other powers from random draws?}

Haru put his hand on the red handle on the side of the machine and pulled down hard. The slots spinning fast as Haru saw all of the grades.

T, F, E, D, C, B, A, S

Haru watched the spinning slots slow down as they all came to a slow stop. Multiple golden screens appeared in front of the machine. Each one telling Haru something different. But Haru quickly realised. He had got 5 T letters in each slot. Then another screen popped up in front of Harus face.

[First try of your power is rigged.
T, T, T, T, T.]

The screen quickly disappeared as Haru looked at the rest.

[Trash Grade- Letter from RoKo.]
[Trash Grade- Cracked mirror from RoKo.]
[Trash Grade- Half Eaten Apple from RoKo.]
[Trash Grade- Dirt Land from RoKo.]
[Trash Grade- Half drunk can of Sprite from RoKo.]

Haru: {So that's what T meant. Trash.}

Haru went to see if tapping would work on these screens. First tapping on the screen that mentioned a note as the screen turned into a piece of paper. Haru caught the paper as it read.

"Dear Haru, I didn't like too much how you treated me, though I guess that's partially my fault for altering your personality and course of life. But I still didn't like it too much so I have given you this. Since I am not a mean but benevolent god I have let you live. Delivering exactly what you asked for. You're in DxD. Though not when or where you might have expected. Your technically a Dragon God, though I recommend looking in that mirror. Lastly, I have given you a system, though good luck getting any power you wish for. I threw this together very last minute so I don't even know if it works properly.
Good luck and enjoy your prison - RoKo.

P.S. Don't be too rude to people that have more power over you."

Haru read over the letter. Surprised. But ultimately he didn't care. If this was his prison he was going to be enjoying his prison sentence.

Haru: {Oh... He meant this as a punishment... Oh well.}

Haru scrunched up the note as he threw the ball of paper into the infinite void of colours as he pressed the next golden screen. A cracked hand held mirror appearing as Haru picked it up and saw himself.

As he expected he was in a completely different body. His body was thin and boney with scars all over his body and face. He had short black hair, sharp teeth but a sickly pale appearance. Both his eyes were different colours. One being a dark magenta purple, the other a crimson blood red. He was 6"5 in height which only added more to his skinny appearance. He was completely naked... but god hadn't taken away his well endowed member.

Haru: {I guess he is benevolent.}

Haru chuckled as he began eating the leftover half of an apple. Then pressing Dirt Land as a vast chunk of land appeared under Harus bare feet. The land was vast but not infinite. Haru could see then ends in the distance. But he could walk on it. Jump and lie on it.

Haru: {Ok... So he's a half decent guy? I guess I should feel bad... but he punished me so we're even.}

Haru thought drinking the Sprite. But spitting it out as he felt someone's thick backwash inside the can. Looking at the can as he walked over and threw it off the edge of the dirt land. Flying into the infinite void of colours.

Haru: {RoKo... that was disgusting. But let's try again.}

Haru made the slot machine appear as he grabbed the lever and tried to pull down but he couldn't. It wouldn't move as a golden screen appeared in front of him.

[Gacha (Ex) can only be used once a day. Better luck next time.]

Haru: {This... is going to be a long stay prison stay.}
