A few minutes later.
Wiping away the remaining tears, Jhon felt a weight lift off him after learning what power had been granted to him.
He was never one to cry, but something like this, which changed his life forever, was something that filled him with deep feelings.
He didn't know who had given it to him. He didn't know if it was luck or a deliberate action by some being.
He only knew that now he could be someone more.
He breathed deeply for two seconds.
"First, let's change my appearance", he spoke while giving himself two pats on the legs and standing up.
Evidently, he couldn't skip smoothing his black suit gently.
He gave a mental order for what would allow him to make the change to appear.
In front of him appeared a holographic screen showing his appearance in 3D. His stats appeared to one side of his avatar: Strength, speed, physique, intelligence... all of that was at what could be considered the maximum of a normal human.
After accepting the change, his body acquired the passive aspects granted by the improvements. Right now the only thing ruining everything was his face; it looked very simple compared to the body he currently had. His data had a 10 next to them, except charm and charisma, which were at 6.
Those were the ones he could change. If he wanted, he could become the most beautiful, manly, and sexy being in the omniverse, but he had to think very carefully about what he was going to do.
"In the multiverse there are women too powerful. If I go out to a world much more powerful than I am at that moment, the only way to escape would be to return to my dimensional space." Jhon shuddered a bit, not wanting to be taken as a slave or pet by some obsessive cosmic entity.
"So being as beautiful as a perfect human can be is the best." After thinking carefully, in the end he pressed the button next to charisma and charm and set them to 10.
He felt no pain or any "Dao enlightenment", but he noticed that his 3D avatar changed completely.
He was no longer just a marked guy with a moderately handsome face. Right now he looked like an Adonis according to his perspective. His 1.88 meters went to 1.92. While the suit gave him an elegant touch and increased his attractiveness, right now it simply looked like a complement to enhance what was already perfect.
If with 10 he looked like this, he didn't even want to think how he would look if he set a 100 in those two aspects.
Jhon believed that probably even Featherine would come and kidnap him upon seeing him.
Breathing deeply to calm his turbulent heart, he closed the screen.
He would never see it again, since according to the essence he could only change his physical appearance once.
His hazel eyes looked carefully at the blank space and said aloud, giving his will to the dimension: "I want to see the Castle of Desire form."
Responding to his request, the dimension, which had always been silent, began to tremble uncontrollably.
THRUM.
Thunders were heard everywhere. The entire dimension transformed live and direct for Jhon.
Not even a second passed when the *BOOM* was heard.
A gigantic, resplendent, and magnificent castle emerged from the dimension's floor, and with it all the white began to disappear.
From the sky a gigantic blue sun was created that illuminated everything in its path, bathing the landscape with an almost supernatural light.
The ground came to have an immeasurable variety of plants and rocks of different types. Rivers and seas formed in response to the order, as if nature itself responded to his will.
Minutes later, Jhon had his mouth open at all the surprises that had been given to him.
'Damn, I didn't think this shit was so awesome', thought Jhon audibly swallowing saliva while touching the gigantic bridge that connected his castle with the created nature.
'It's supposed to change depending on whether it's night or not, let's try...' Rehearsing what he was going to do, he spoke: "Make it night."
Again the dimension responded to his request. What was once blue and yellow, symbolizing daylight, now was a resplendent purple.
Even nature changed in response to the night. The tree bark, previously green and robust, came to acquire the color of the night, with the purple illuminating the darkness like bright veins.
Jhon had his mouth wide open once more, surprised by how imposing it looked.
If someone asked him what this reminded him of, the only thing he could say was: The Shadow Monarch.
That's how imposing it was. The simple fact that this belonged to him seemed very surrealistic.
After seeing it, Jhon preferred the change to happen naturally, so he asked for it to be day again.
Once it was day again, he began to stretch.
"Let's test what this beautiful body is capable of", he murmured while finishing stretching. Jhon got into a running position with a maniacal smile looking ahead.
His suit, which was now symmetrically united with his improved body, would no longer fall off so easily.
After getting into position, his muscles tensed completely, using all the strength his current body had.
BOOM.
He shot forward like a bullet, while the created earth and grass scattered due to the action.
At that moment Jhon felt free. He felt his speed was such that he ran like a damn motorcycle. His legs moved in strides that would make any normal person bite the dust.
Like a super soldier, it took him only five seconds. Five seconds to get from one end to the other of his dimension. Right now he felt that if those five men who tried to kill him were placed in front of him, he would easily eliminate them.
He only needed to test his strength, but he was more excited to know the castle.
Having arrived at the castle door, it opened by itself with a majestic creak.
Seeing how the doors opened slowly, Jhon entered walking while observing its structure.
'The only negative is how lonely this feels', he thought with bitterness while touching the perfectly sculpted metal of the castle, a bit sad for not having someone to share this with.
'Well, maybe in the future I'll see a lot of people walking around here. Who knows, maybe children.' He smiled happily at that prospect.
After a few seconds he came across the castle hall. He observed the dining room and it seemed magnificent to him, only he was no longer surprised like a hick; he was already gaining resistance to this.
"Rrrrr."
His stomach growled upon seeing the dining room in front of him.
Jhon had a slightly embarrassed face, patting his belly, but he knew that now he needed to know what he had obtained. After that he would take care of enjoying a great meal.
After seeing the dining room, an hour passed detailing most of the castle, but even so he didn't manage to finish.
---
At this moment Jhon was in the center of the castle, sitting on the Throne of Desire. His gaze was forward, with neutral eyes, without any visible emotion, while having his hands resting on the throne's armrests.
While his face didn't show much, his mind was the complete opposite. After touring the castle, he sat to appreciate the view the throne had, but it was already time to see what was going to make him stronger, what was going to turn him into what his destiny held.
He stood up from the throne slowly, keeping himself impeccable even in emotion. He raised his hand and mentally imprinted his will in his words: "Show me the Shop of Desire."
The dimension, responding to his request, made the entire castle disappear, only for Jhon to be teleported in front of a simple shop, a shop that had nothing ostentatious at first sight.
Jhon scratched his head upon seeing the shop that looked simple on the outside, disconcerted by its appearance.
"Maybe it's one of those that make you question yourself and then leave you with your mouth open", speculated Jhon.
Shrugging, he moved forward.
He reached the door frame and after taking a deep breath, he entered.
Tin.
A bell hanging above rang.
Jhon entered and what he saw was exactly what the essence said.
This shop was the personification of the desire for knowledge and the desire for power.
Swords hung suspended in the air near a counter. The hanging lamps, sensing his turbulent emotions, changed color, putting a smile on his face for the implications of this.
Jhon felt his face was going to stretch from smiling so much. He knew these minimal things served to manipulate the people who entered here. Not everyone would enter normally; maybe some were dying, others losing battles.
Minimal things that affected the surrounding environment conditioned people and prevented them from thinking in detail about their actions.
'Though it's not like I'm a second-rate villain either', thought Jhon while touching a clock that hung as if gravity didn't affect it.
"These things make this place seem like it's from some God." He touched the shelf on the wall, with books slowly spinning with mystical airs.
Jhon knew that anyone who entered would think the owner of this shop was some kind of bored God. No one would think it was a weak human in need of power.
He approached a back door, behind the waiting room and the counter. He opened the door and what he found made him nod.
Outside the door was an entrance to the castle. What he did was unite the two forms into one, connecting it with the shop. According to the essence, he could keep both open at the same time. Next to it was another door that represented the training room. He could create whatever he wanted to train, so once he obtained the first copy of someone, he was already mentally preparing to kill himself training like a Saiyan.
After confirming that the castle could indeed be connected to the training room, Jhon headed to a part customized for him. At the back, hidden from the shelves on the wall and the shelves suspended in the sky, there was a small compartment. Jhon was clear that what was there was the most important.
Approaching slowly and with his heart palpitating, his burly build walked freely through the immensity of the shop.
Once in front, he swallowed saliva closing his eyes in anticipation. Then he opened the compartment.
"¡¡My eyes can't resist this beauty!!" Upon seeing what was there, Jhon shouted comically covering his eyes once more with his hands upon observing the twenty totally impeccable suits in the compartment.
White, blood red, black, gray... Colors that would make him look as he had always liked.
He lowered his gaze, looking at the black suit he currently had. Complex emotions passed through his hazel eyes.
This suit was a gift from his parents. That was why Jhon paid special attention to its condition.
His parents, once they saw how their son changed, maturing and improving as a person, gave it to him as a synonym of his effort. Unfortunately Jhon's parents died a month later in that absurd accident.
Inhaling a mouthful of air, he began to slowly remove the suit he was wearing, starting with the right arm, then stretching the left arm, managing to take it off. After that, he removed his pristine pants, remaining in boxers. At that moment Jhon could fully see his change. His body was simply a Greek god sculpture, muscles marked everywhere, not grotesquely, but symmetrically.
In every movement, the muscles exuded masculinity. If there was a woman right now, she would already have a leak in the lower part.
Having the complete suit on one arm, he pushed the other suits to one side and carefully placed his in the free space.
His lips curved softly, while in his eyes he could observe the memory of when his parents gave him the suit with joy.
'I'll use it for important moments from now on. This suit will be for the next generation', Jhon promised himself internally.
Then, feeling a cold air on his balls, he grabbed a dark suit.
The dark suit, with deep charcoal black tones, had a fitted jacket that highlighted his defined shoulders and a cut that enhanced the figure without looking rigid. The fabric had a fine, almost satin finish.
Underneath he wore a dark gray shirt, unbuttoned at the top naturally, showing a bit of the chest and giving a relaxed but seductive touch. Jhon tucked the shirt with precision, without wrinkles, indicating a pristine style.
Jhon also put on a vest of the same color as the suit, fitted and elegant, that completed a three-piece set. The vest maintained a classic line, with fine buttons and fitted cut.
After changing, Jhon raised his arm a bit, brought his nose to his armpit and inhaled. After doing that, he nodded.
'Seems like that physique change bathed me...', thought Jhon internally without shame, pleased.
After that, he closed the compartment and went to the counter, where he found a well-cared leather chair.
He breathed deeply and told the shop to connect to a random world.
The main door of the shop glowed a bit. After that, information was sent to Jhon's brain about the world the shop had fallen into.
"Hahaha." Jhon laughed out loud slapping his leg. "I didn't think it would fall into a world from the first animations I saw."
With expectation he asked for a book about the world he was going to face. As if by magic, a book with golden frames and blue deer antlers in the middle came flying toward his lap.
Opening the book, he began to read it to refresh his memory and to obtain information about the world he didn't fully remember.
Then he simply waited patiently.
At that moment the tin of the little bell above the main door frame was heard.
Jhon saw a short-statured child enter with a blue hat on his head.
The child was anxious and with visible fear on his face, he could intuit.
'¡Shit, he's raising his hands, he's going to use his powers!' Aware that he had no physical way to stop him, he had to prevent him from using them somehow.
So before he did, Jhon wanted to use the surprise factor to avoid it, since apparently the child hadn't noticed his existence.
"I don't think that's the best decision, young man", spoke Jhon with authority, with a serene and penetrating voice.
The young Eliatrope who was going to use his powers froze upon hearing the voice. In panic, he turned and observed the man in front of him.
Maybe because of how magnificent he looked, or maybe because of the fear, the Eliatrope stayed with his eyes open momentarily.
Jhon, on the other hand, with an internal smile only had one thought upon observing this.
'This is going to be interesting.'
