[Race: Enlightened High Human, Mage,Cursed Sorcerer]
It's been four weeks since I was given the Thor treatment by Big Bro. At first I saw seething at him cause why would he dare do this to me.
Such feelings have long passed after I was attacked by a horde of Demonic beasts in the Forsaken Lands as I came to a realization. I was becoming too prideful. I never thought what it meant being a descendant of Gilgamesh till now, dismissing it as a convenient power up but now I understand that it's like the Spirit Inheritance that magicians talk about.
I am a reincarnation of Gilgamesh. I have been having dreams about his life, learnt his magic and fighting styles. I can understand why he was proud. He was human yet in the level of a super devil. He created the spell Gates of Babylon and tied it to his blood making it a clan trait.
The spell's true strength is in its conceptual nature. Any item that is created by humanity or held by human hands a slightly stronger version is copied and deposited in the gates automatically as long as they are valuable mundanely or magically.
Even magic grimoires, I found one written by this universe's Merlin and it wasn't only about human magic but also demonic magic. Unluckily there is no Ea or fate universe weapons as this is not that universe.
But I can forge something like that myself as I have forging books written by Yahweh which he gave Solomon and a portable magic forge given by Hephaestus to his demigod child, Leo Valdez living in some place called Camp Halfblood.
Luckily, the chains of Enkidu exist which is a huge relief as it's a great tool against strong foes. It weakens or restrains divinity depending on my strength, it also works as a summoning catalyst to summon and possibly gain the allegiance of the Divine Spirit,Enkidu who will decide if he becomes your familiar or not.
I have already decided against summoning till I am at least peak Ultimate Class since it would be a bitch and a half to try to subdue him before that.
Hmmm… another patrol force is passing through. I immediately teleported from my location to one of the ruined houses on the outskirts of the the Mamon Clan's city. My plan to blend in starts from here.
Since I have access to all forms of energy and magic… including demonic energy I manifest it fully within me and hide the other energies like my mana and cursed energy so I can blend in fully.
[Devil energy detected fully.]
[Creation of Devil Race form: Devil form]
[This form can be be turned on and off by user. You can think of it as a transformation.]
[Host can create other racial forms to transform into. May gain unique abilities doing so.]
[Due to unique interaction between demonic energy and host this form has gained a unique clan trait.]
[Clan Trait: Space Manipulation: host starts of with basic abilities like teleportation, distance manipulation amd spacial energy attacks that try to rip apart opponents. The true strength of this clan trait is any spacial ability can be developed even if it seems not possible.One can even gain a true form when you reach Super Devil Tier but that depends on your development.]
[Message from VOTW: You should change your appearance completely in this form. Devils have minor shape shifting abilities so shapeshift your face, increase height. As you are right now you are like an original devil created by Lilith which technically makes you an Original Devil. Use this to your advantage. Create a background… go to the outskirts near no man's land there are bodies littered there from the Great war. Angels and devils alike. Push your devil trait to develop a spacial barrier that keeps you in stasis then cause a massive explosion that will alert them. When found explain yourself in a way that you think the Great War is still ongoing and you trapped yourself using your trait to survive against a battalion of angels. Most importantly say you are the lastest of Extra Devils created by Lilith to aid in the war. They will take you seriously. This is a chance to create an alter ego that will help you gain ground and information amongst your enemies.]
"Wow. I never would have thought of that Voice. Since I am to be a deep cover spy can I ask you for a boon? Since you control all the gifts we are given?"
[Sure. But nothing to drastic.]
"Okay. Since I obviously can't use gates of Babylon to get my weapons amd from what I have heard most weapons in this verse are actually mid. Can I get a skill that aids in crafting and blacksmithing?" I asked with slight hope in my heart. She has already helped me with her idea to integrate myself into their society now I just hope she can give me a little extra something.
[Request heard…]
[Processing…]
[VOTW going through database… skill found.]
[Unique Skill: Arcane Smith gained.]
[Arcane Smith: grants arcane intuition, grants heat resistance, arcane creation and arcane sub space.]
[This skill is a copy from The Faceless One's skill and is integrated into your devil form as it interacts with your Clan Trait causing it to mutate in ways you have to figure out yourself This cannot be copied or sealed from you.]
[Message from The Faceless One: Bro, you still alive and kicking lol. That's good. You already started thinking out of the box with the skills you already have. I can bet you won't have done this if you were still safe on Earth. Anyway the truth is I am blocking your teleportation back to Earth through your Planeswalker skill. I banished you for a reason. You are like me. You grow best when out of your element and in survival mode. When the barriers fall you will be allowed back on Earth as the other supernaturals.
Struggle, crawl and strive. We are in a race against time my friend. Remember that no devil is your friend or has your best interests at heart. They may look human, sound human even act human. Make no mistake… WTF!!! No no no no. How did this happen! I didn't foresee this! Talk to you later. I need to be somewhere asap.]
That was weird. I wonder what happened that he would panic like that.
The Faceless One
Who the fuck resurrected Yahweh!!!
How!!!!! This wasn't in my plans at all. Even with all my foresight abilities I never once saw a possibility of him coming back.
Sure he is not yet at full strength but as he is now… he is already stronger than me.
"Voice-chan! What happened. I just got a premonition that The Abrahamic God has resurrected."
[It was the Dhampir,Valerie Tepes. Owner of Sephiroth Graal. She ascended to Ultimate Class through the help of the system and the Grail. Now she is strong enough to withstand and understand the whispers of the dead and principles of Life and Death.]
[She came across the voice of Yahweh in partial slumber and in grief that her God was dead. Panicked and pumped a lot of energy into him.]
"She is a Christian??? That's very surprising."
[She used to pray to him to save her from her torment when her brother and other vampires were alive. With no answered prayers and now she knows why.]
[Her sacred gear evolved into a unique balance breaker where all three cups merged into One and the power skyrocketed many times increasing its power and also gathering a lot of energy from the world to act as a wish granting machine not unlike the one from the Fate Universe giving her a pseudo version of the 3rd True Magic.She can only make a wish once a year although it can do almost anything except out right kill a person. It can injure them, seal them, weaken them but not outright kill.]
[You have also gained this ability from her in an increased form granting you the ability to make two wishes instead of one.]
Valerie huh. She was a little wallflower in the original timeline but now she isn't someone I want to truly mess with unless it's to kill her and hope she stays dead.
Well the plan to take over heaven is a bust but now I may yet have an ally against the EXE gods. I should get a gift to give to humanity's oldest protector to congratulate him for his resurrection.
You know what… let's announce his return with a bang.
"You know what… let's announce his return with a bang."
[On it.]
Everywhere in the DxD dimension as large screen opened up in the sky or on the nearest surface at the same time with a voice that said the same thing.
[World Announcement! World Announcement.]
[Through the help of a variant of humanity with the help of her Sacred Gear.]
[The resurrection of the Lord of Hosts has succeeded.]
[The "I am that I am" has returned.]
Note:
Sorry it took so long. Had too many clashing ideas. I wrote and rewrote this chapter so many times it's crazy. This is the version that I like best.
Truthfully I just wanted more Faceless One scenes and wanted Big G back. Most DxD fics like to keep him dead. Well not me. Sorry not sorry.
Was really inspired to resurrect after reading the newest chapter of I, Necromancer from Musashi. Check out his fics, I,Draugr and I,Blacksmith also. He's way too talented honestly. He used Sephiroth Graal to resurrect God too so why fix whats not broken.
Thank you guys for your patience with me honestly.
