1 Death and Transmigration

I've been betrayed and basically sentenced to death as I've been sealed inside a chamber able to hold a nuclear blast inside of it. My superiors in the United States Army have decided that I have no more use in world war three as it is drawing to a close. So they gave me the task of infiltrating an enemy facility of the Russian government to disarm and ruin an experimental nuke. Haa, little did I know they had an agreement with the Russian's that in exchange for a peaceful talk about ending the war, they promised they would kill a handful of special units they and my superiors feared.

So here I am, sitting against a nuke chamber's walls, reading pokemon fanfic as the remotely timed nuke ticks down to vaporize me. I can't tamper with it to disarm it as if I do; they'll open the doors and riddle me with holes. So I choose to die quickly by becoming nothing via a nuke over swiss human cheese. So I read the latest fanfic page of a book called "Pokemon - Alex Burns" on my phone as I hear only a beep from the nuke. Next thing I know, I'm dead, simple as that I'm dead.

Looking around after my death, I notice I'm an orb in the abyss of hell for my deeds; before me stands a devil and a god. The devil looked like a fallen angel with his black feathery wings, as he had the appearance of a tired, depressed businessman and a single horn on his head. The god seemed to be Orcus, as whenever I killed someone, I wished they'd meet Orcus and be judged fairly. Both of them looked at me with relaxed expressions before the devil spoke up after a few seconds of silence.

"Damned Soul Dakota Cartson, Although you belong here in the lowest level of hells prisons. You for some reason always wished for souls you've killed to be judged fairly by the gods and devils. Either on missions, by mercy, or for pleasure has given numerous souls fair and neutral judgment for how they have lived their lives. Thus, I, Devil Lacur, and God Orcus have agreed as you were one of the believers that made him proud. That we of the hell side would let Orcus decide what to do with you under supervision for fair and unbiased treatment. So your grace, please proceed with your judgment of the soul. I shall watch over the proceedings."

"As you've been a rather faithful believer and did not always kill for no reason unless you suffered a psychotic break and rarely took pleasure from murder. I have decided that even though you have killed 46,305,999 souls, both directly and indirectly. All while sending them off to me or another god of death and judgment if you believed I would be burdened. You've given those of the blackest souls, grayest souls, tainted souls, and purest white souls fair judgment in how they should be treated, some have reincarnated or have been punished for eternity. Thus, in light of these events, I have decided to send you off on a new journey, even with your blackening gray soul. Would you like to accept this offer?"

"Yes, I've had enough of this life..."

Orcus smiled gently as he looked at Lacur to see if this has been a fair judgment for a soul like this. Lacur thought over the judgment; he thought of the reasonings, remembered who all besides Orcus had spoken up about this soul, their reasonings, and came to a decision.

"It has been fair given the reasons stated, his actions towards all the way towards the end, the reasonings given by other gods and demon gods, even lord Satan himself. I judge this in all to be a fair judgment of this soul regardless of his kill count. Proceed how you wish."

Saying his judgment, Lacur left as he faded into the abyss of darkness, leaving only me and Orcus. Sighing me and Orcus talked about a few things regarding my new life; I would be meet the god of my chosen world. Then, having thought of the world, I would like given my little knowledge on it so it'd be fun. So Orcus took me to meet Arceus, the god of the pokemon world, as I had picked that world to go to for my new journey. Thus a hop through apparently the doorway of worlds we met Arceus after Orcus had requested her to meet me. Seeing me safely to my destination Orcus said goodbye to me then returned to earth.

"Welcome earthling to my domain, or as you would call it, my dreams as I am weakened, and the space between the fabric of my world is unstable. Thus this is the safest way for us to meet without your soul being destroyed by an unfortunate accident."

"Thanks for taking the time to meet with well, someone like me, miss. Orcus probably mentioned why I am here, right?"

"Yes, about becoming an inhabitant of my world after your death by betrayal. I shall gladly accept this and welcome you with open arms, young man. However, I have a request of you if you would please listen to it or if you'd like to reincarnate into my world as normal."

"You're letting me live here, so I will at least hear you out on what your request is."

"Thank you; my world has had its timeline reset various times, and each time I watch my children destroy each other. While I have my more powerful children managing different aspects of the world in my stead. I do not have a true executioner to carry out punishments for endangering the world as humans or pokemon have done so multiple times. I would like you to be my executioner, keep the peace, and give punishments to all my children, depending on their actions."

"That sounds fair, although I am tired of that life, it's mostly all I know, so if you'd have me, I'll do it. Is there anything I need to do for this role or to become?"

"You would still be a human in appearance but a new legendary as you'd have typings like my children that walk alongside the humans. Although I have watchers that live amongst the humans in their form and as a pokemon, you shall rarely be met by them unless needed. For your role, is there any typing you would like to be to help you fulfill your role?"

"Poison, Dark, Psychic, Ghost, Electric, and Death should be the types that will help me most as some of those I'm familiar with as tools of the trade. Dark types have the advantage of being immune to the psychic types' detection and intrusive mind rape. While Psychic will help me locate the threats, know lies from the truth, find out the full story, and have an easier time traveling.

Ghost and Poison are because I had to be an effective assassin; I had to be on the fence of life and know what poisons would be helpful to have on hand. Electric because I know what it can do and how I could use it. Death simply because you are asking me to be your executioner, so I need a type that only Xerneas your life dear can counter, because that'd be no fun if everyone can counter me."

"Your arguments hold some valid reasoning and arguments, so I shall allow these choices; your species identity shall simple be Reaper. Now how would you prefer to enter the world?"

"Surprise me honestly because I don't know."

"That's perfectly fine, that isn't an easy question."

"Anything I should know before I go though?"

"Ah yes a few things to be certain you'll be fine in what is to come. There is a religious group called the "The Knight's of Arceus" which is a rather... Dangerous bunch. There is also the dying "Aura Guardians" as not many human can take up the mantle, the order is fading. There will be more than the regions you know of from the games in your world. So do try to learn the geographical layout of the world, please. You will have your equipment made from the materials of your siblings. That includes both of your so called handguns, marksman rifle, light machine gun, and combat knives."

"Sounds fair honestly, do I get to pick them though?"

"No dear child, they will be of those which have the most prominent impression in your memories."

"Well then I take it that's all?"

"This concludes our business, young man; I wish you the best of luck in your travels."
