Chapter 1

In the Philippine Archipelago known for it's people's hospitality and the beautiful beaches in its islands

lies a man bored out of his mind as he just finished updating himself of the novels on his webnovel library when he remembered finishing the 2nd arc of cliffc999's new jumpchain excited that a new arc would be started as he remembered enjoying every ups and downs of the protagonist in the earlier arcs thinking the author continued with his fast updates so he refreshed his browser lo and behold

an update was added with excitement he refreshed his browser and read the author's note on why the series is ending he was sad but hoped the author who had given him a fantastic story farewells and good luck on future endeavors

suddenly that void you feel when you just finished reading a good fic and don't know what do....

deciding he would rest to tackle the new day easier he slept

POV Change

Upon waking up I found that i was among the stars floating across the cosmos thinking it was a dream I enjoyed flying around doing whatever tricks i could dream up of doing

loop de loops, flying superman style, barrel rolling

and it was during one of these tricks that i found an old man by the side watching me with amusement, he was sitting on a couch and sipping tea from a cup

thinking i was dead or something from all the fics i read so

I asked "am i dead?"

he replied"yes you had an heart attack because of the unhealthy lifestyle and i may or may not have opened a teany tiny bit black hole near you and you may have been sucked into it"

"how about my family?" i asked worried about them since from what i remember black holes swallow everything around them

"I was able to save them and they were devastated about but your insurance covered them and made them stand again specially during the trying times, but they are happy now its been kinda been a long time since you died as compensation i've come to offer you 3 wishes"

Thinking of all that times I wished for adventure suddenly I had an epiphany i was just reading about it last few weeks and so I made my choices which would protect me and give me an edge no matter what happens

1. Essence of Infinite Adventure

This essence allows you to start your own Omniversal Adventures. This ability to go on an Adventure is powered by your own soul. So the stronger your soul is, the more powerful the world you can go into. At first, this will be limited to relatively weaker worlds like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and the like. But as you make your way through your own story and complete Adventures your soul will grow and with it your ability to go on greater and more powerful Adventures, and to whatever world(s) that you may desire and as often as you wish. No longer shall you be at the mercy of those damn ROBs.

When you start an Adventure you may arrive in whatever manner you wish. Arrive fully adult like an isekai character, reincarnate into the body of a child being born (with your age of 'awakening' to your full memories and power set at anywhere you choose up to adulthood), be created or summoned by some native character, whatever is appropriate to the particular narrative. This does allow you to replace a 'canon' character if you so choose, although your power growth from doing so is still restricted to the limitations below.

If you choose you may stop in the middle of one Adventure to start another one, and then return later on to resume your original Adventure where you left off.

This Adventure wouldn't be infinite if you could die, so you are immortal now in the sense that your mind and soul are Absolute. Literally nothing, regardless of how powerful it might be, can alter them against your will, manipulate or control them, or harm them. This essentially gives you unlimited willpower, immunity to anything that affects your mind or soul, and a perfect memory with infinite storage. This does not affect your ability to learn from your mistakes or grow as a person.

As adventurers are rarely ugly or weak, at the time you drink this Essence and every time you reincarnate you get the opportunity to re-sculpt your body to your ideal desires and whatever aesthetics you choose.

Alongside this, your soul may begin to tap into the powers of the narrative that you have chosen to incorporate yourself into. Your strength, intelligence, speed, resilience, and everything else you can think of may be increased up to the limits naturally attainable for the race you have reincarnated as in the particular narrative you have arrived in. Your potential for powers and abilities such as magic, psionics, the Force, etc. may likewise start at any level up to the maximum attainable in that particular narrative.

In addition to this you may with sufficient effort overcome the inherent limitations or weaknesses of your race. You can train yourself to be immune to sunlight or blood deprivation if you are a vampire, to ignore Kryptonite if you're a Kryptonian, etc.

You may also start a new Adventure already trained in skills you haven't actually encountered yet, up to the level of an average experienced adult in your role. This level of skill may be improved like any other skill you possess, as per below.

Successful adventurers tend to be highly adaptable polymaths, so you will have an enormous amount of talent for pretty much anything you might wish to learn and an ideal growth rate. Provided that you possess the faintest capacity for whatever ability you're trying to develop you will be able to progress at incredible speed.

You also have control over your own fertility and other minor, related buffs.

If your body is destroyed then it will regenerate if you have a power that allows it. If you don't then you will reincarnate into another Adventure after you die. In case you experience an unpleasant fate you cannot escape from you also get the ability to force yourself to reincarnate at need. If you are reduced to a state where you would genuinely want to activate this ability but cannot consciously do so, such as being sealed or trapped in an infinite time loop, then this will automatically trigger. Reincarnating undoes all unwanted harm or changes done to you regardless of its nature or source.

This reincarnation process allows you to keep the powers from your previous Adventures into following Adventures, and similar powers stack together to increase to beyond what they would be individually. Your powers cannot be taken from you, controlled, manipulated or altered against your wishes as they are powered by your soul and no matter how many times you are destroyed your powers will not be affected. Every power, every ability, every perk is powered by your soul and you can be assured that any powers, abilities, curses etc., that affect your soul to weaken or destroy this power will fail to work.

Should you wish you can combine any similar abilities together instead of keeping them separate and this combined power will work same as it would have if you stacked the similar powers as mentioned above. This will help you keep track of the different abilities you have.

As your soul grows stronger, your powers will too. Initially, the strength of your powers will be limited to whatever Adventure you got them from but as your soul gets stronger the powers will rapidly grow in every aspect, reducing the limits and drawbacks and in time completely eliminating them.

If you find that you've become too powerful for Adventures to be any fun then you may choose to place as much of your power and potential as you wish 'in storage' when reincarnating, and reclaim it in a later reincarnation. Likewise, you may 'softcap' your growth or uncap it at will.

Finally, if you fail any Adventure then all you have to do is finish another Adventure in a separate world and you can go back to the one you failed and do it again. Learn from your failures and never give up, for your soul can reach infinity if you have the will.

Please note that these Omniversal adventures can be any type of adventures. Jumpchains, CYOAs or any combination of the two or anything else that you can imagine. If your adventures are a Jumpchain then at the end you'll receive an "Old-Walker Spark" and there can be no Jump fail scenario for you due to this essence and if it is a CYOA then same rules apply. And if you ever decide you need a break then you can spend as long as you wish in each world regardless of any drawbacks or scenarios you take.

The rewards you receive from your adventures will work as intended in all worlds and they cannot be hindered as you have already struggled to earn all your power.

Or if you eventually decide it's time to stop Adventuring of your own free will, then you may move on to whatever comes next.

2. Essence of Home

you gain a personal home that exists outside of our reality and beyond the reach of most entities. The home is practically impenetrable to any being you do not want inside, even a supreme deity could not peirce the barriers in place of this property.

The home can be of your design, or you can let it surprise you by generating itself based on your needs and wants so it fits yourself perfectly. As your needs change and grow, the home will expand with new facilities as needed.

The home takes care of basic utilities automatically and requires no connection to any pre-existing infrastructure to function. The home provides functionally infinite supplies of whatever mundane food and drink you could desire.

You may optionally have the home create servants to tend to it while you are gone. You may also give the home sapience to manage things, the home wil be utterly, unwaveringly loyal devoted to you, it cannot be influenced to change its mind otherwise.

This home has the capability to travel through the multiverse and can give you passage practically anywhere. It can insert itself into those places or simply open a portal for you to travel through.

Any additional Essences will add functionality to this one in the form of additional rooms and facilities depending on what the additional Essences are.

3. Essence of the Adventurer

By consuming the essence of the Adventurer, the eternal wanderer and jack-of-all-trades, you gain the following boons:

A sound mind in a sound body, ready and fit for adventure. This will maintain undiminished even into old age, although your lifespan will only be mildly enhanced barring further boons from elsewhere.

A significant boost to your appearance, if you want one. For some reason adventurers are often good-looking.

Immunity to all diseases and a minor healing factor that maintains your body in good physical condition and allows action-hero level recovery from injuries.

Infinite willpower to keep going through any amount of hardship; even bloody and broken you will not stop.

Perfect memory with infinite storage.

Enhanced learning and development, the ability to go from entirely untrained to having completely maxed out your potential or skill in a much shorter period of time than normal. This applies to anything that you already have the capacity to do or learn that can possibly be advanced by training. Advancement never slows down until or unless you hit a softcap.

Skills, stats, and abilities never degrade due to lack of training or the passage of time.

For those of us who want to be the unspecialized adventurer or just to live a higher-quality slice of life.

And yes, the lack of a global uncapper is deliberate; its intended to turn a normal human being into a manga main character, not a god. Barring taking something else from another CYOA or another Essence, you are limited to peak racial abilities.

And yes, you can train mental and social attributes as well as physical, if you can figure out a way to.

If necessary, interpret 'a sound mind in a sound body' to mean 'good, but not maximum, stats in everything'. You know, the d20 bard/monk build.

basically the 1st of the powers would make my soul Absolute meaning it would be uncorruptable, maximum potential of my chosen race, and infinite rebirths that would stack my powers of it was the same meaning I could isekai myself to death, the 2nd

personal dimension for the win to store stuff and relax, lastly the 3rd would give enhanced learning speed, Infinite will, and infinite memory storage with perfect indexing

as spiff would say [it was perfectly balanced]

anywhere I would go the natural order got chucked out the window pretty much from the get go
