An essence of wishes, a shop, and me trying not to die in the process
Jhon had always known he was fragile. Like any ordinary human, he could die from a stray bullet, a stupid accident, or simply bad luck. He trained his body, sharpened his mind, studied everything he could… but in the end, he was still normal.
Until he bought a strange vial from a homeless man on the streets of Bogotá.
The label read: "Essence of Granted Desire".
He didn’t know if it was poison or a scam, but what did he have to lose? He drank the contents without a second thought. The worst that could happen was dying in his usual outfit, nothing out of this world.
Apparently, that’s exactly what happened. Five armed men broke into his house searching for the vial. Bullets flew. Everything went black.
But when he woke up, he had obtained exactly what he once longed for: to stop being normal.
Now he’s the owner of an impossible dimensional space. A castle that responds to his will. A shop that can appear in any world in the omniverse.
The Store of Wishes.
And with it, a simple yet absolute power: he can grant any desire… for a price.

The shop’s bell chimed.
Ding.
Jhon lifted his gaze from his leather chair, observing the figure who had just crossed the threshold. The hanging lamps shifted color, reacting to the visitor’s turbulent emotions. The endless shelves turned gently, books and artifacts floating as if gravity were optional.
A calm smile appeared on his face.
He stood up slowly, his hazel eyes shining with the lamps’ light. He opened his hands in a welcoming gesture, his voice resonating in the mystical space:
"Here is where anything is possible."
He paused, letting the silence settle.
"Here is where everything comes true."
His eyes sparkled.
"Here is where desires exist."
He leaned forward slightly, his smile turning enigmatic.
"Now tell me…"
The visitor held their breath.
"What do you desire?"

Author's Note:
Jhon will be strong, but he won’t be invincible. As time passes and he grants more wishes, his power will continue to grow.
So if you want to see the MC interact with characters from different franchises, travel, and help other worlds (Marvel, DC, anime, video games, etc.), then this is the fanfic for you.
Lastly, I don’t have an update schedule yet, but it will be set later.
Average word count is between 2,000 and 3,000 words (except for chapters 2 and 3, which are a brief introduction).
