1 The Past, Present and the Future

A/N: I have edited the x gene to be something random as to give more future writing possibilities and I am also going to give the mc a family which might or might not be affulential to provide more backstory and ground to the story

After a long time, Arvin opened his eyes to find his body nowhere to be found and his entire existence being condensed into a ball of light bringing a sense of warmth to his mind or whatever it was that was giving him cognitive abilities, he soon Recalled how he died.

It was after he was done closing his comic book and was about to head out after finally putting all the comics on their correct shelves when he soon noticed a small light source moving towards him very quickly and when he finally saw what was the object his body froze as the light source was a truck heading towards him at full speed and just half a second later the glass along the wall shattered and the truck rammed him in the wall crushing his torso and organs and soon the light faded out of his eyes and he found himself in his current predicament.

After he finally absorbed what happened to him despair overtook him as he started to reminiscence over his life like how even though he had no real parents and grew up in a foster home with no person of his to call family and getting bullied due to his short stature he still managed to complete his high school education and applied for an arts degree in a college in his hometown and graduated while working as a part-time delivery worker and afterward's saved enough money from his job at the art gallery to lease a store to finally open a comic book store as comics and novels were his support when no one came to his aid and gave him some solace, he was sad as he would never see the people he had built a life around, the store he had opened after many hours of hardship and saving a lot of money and living frugally but he wouldn't have any more time to mope as a voice that shook his entire soul or whatever that he was right now thundered " I sorry my child I would have given you more time to reflect on your past but the time we have is very less and you have some very important decisions to make"

Scared but still curious Arvin asked the voice" who are you and where am I and what are these decisions that you are talking about" The voice with a slight chuckle replied" Child there is no need to be scared I am what you pray to when you go to sleep but a lot different in many aspects and quite same in many but those things aren't important right what is, that you are in the karmic void of reincarnation and have the first soul to be selected for multiversal reincarnation in many many eons and whereas the decisions that you are talking is of course which world you are going to reincarnate"

Still confused Arvin asked again" What is multiversal reincarnation and whatever it is how was I a meager earthling living a common life was selected for it "

The voice as if knowing the question is coming quickly replied" The multiverse has its own will and even I don't know how or who it chooses to complete its purposes but now that you have been you have will be given a world to reincarnate from and few set of boons to complete the task of bringing balance to the world you will be reincarnated into but when choosing the boons please be careful as they are final and backsies and each boon brings a new set of challenges to complete"

Arvin a finally getting a hang of what's going on and what's to come took a few moments to ponder over his choices and asked" what are the worlds that I can go to "

and as soon as he said it a list opened in front of him

·DC

·Onepice

·Naruto

·Marvel

·

·

·Resident Evil

·

·

·Street Fighter

as he saw the list his eyes quickly caught a word that resonated with his heart "MARVEL" even when he was a child Arvin was always fascinated by the marvel universe and its wide assortment of unique characters and instantly he selected and another screen popped in front of him showing various powers he could select he remembered something and asked the voice" what did you mean when you said with each boon I will get my tasks will get more difficult?"

the voice replied" These powers aren't being given in goodwill but as a method to help you bring balance and light to the universe that you are heading so with each new power that you choose new responsibilities will be given to you to balance the scales of the world but as a precaution i would like to recommend you to not choose more than 3"

After thinking for a while Arvin finally decided on his powers and said" Firstly I want the spawn's suit and abilities but not any of his drawbacks like his limited necroplasm energy or weakness to sunlight or heavenly or hellish objects" to this the voice retorted " sure but remember asking this for your wish starts your challenges at planetary levels and that itself is big hurdle "

and in response, arvin said, " yeah I am sure since this is my new life I am going to make sure that I fulfill every dream I had and just earth isn't going to cut it this time as for the second wish I would like an X-Gene that compliments my spawn suit and body" to which the voice again chuckled " you truly have some good understanding about the world you are heading into but this boon sets the bar at the galactic level are you sure you can handle it? "

Arvin thought for a minute and replied" Yeah I am sure and as for the third wish I would like to have the akashic records or its marvel equivalent"

to this, the voice replied "I could give it to you but the amount of information the records contain will simply destroy your mind, soul, and body at once so how about I give you genius-level intellect and the difficulty will stay at galactic level " and to this Arvin nodded his head and agreed as the whole wish for the akashic record was just a ploy to get genius-level intellect while still maintaining the difficulty level of his future ordeals" after his final selection the voice gave out some information that pulled down Arvin from his high flying dreams "although the powers are being given to you are quite powerful but to help you learn about them and get used to most of them will be locked and will only open after you fulfill some criteria's and you can manage these and see these requirement's from a system that will be given to you along with these your journey will start after your soul finds a compatible body, I am going out of my way to give you a family even though you didn't ask for one because for once you used experience what its like to be a part of one " After saying this he joined his palms and separated them to create a portal and threw arvin's soul in it "
