"What are you doing with that blob? It's been almost a month since you started messing around with it."

I looked at the boy in front of me and a small smirk appeared at the corner of my lips.

How can I not be smug? This was the one and only Cid Kagenou in front of me. Cid had been working on Alpha's possession form for a month now and I was sure that he was about to succeed and that was why I appeared here.

"Don't know. This blob has a ton of magic and I have been trying to control the magic. Oh, it worked."

Hearing the Cid-like answer, the smile on my lips became more prominent.

I stood beside Cid as we watched the blob shine with magic as it transformed and soon after turned into a naked blond-haired loli.

'It a good thing there is no FBI in this world.'

*Ding*

[Congratulations. Your target, Cid, rescued and restored Alpha

Reward: Organikóskinesis - The power to control all organic substances.]

[Organikóskinesis can be combined with Construct Creation and Formakinesis to give a superior ability, do you want to combine?

<YES > <NO >]

"…"

How overpowered can one person get? Cid was one stupidly overpowered character, but so was I. I mean my cheat ensured that.

I clicked on the <YES > and I felt my body change a bit before I got used to it already, this was not the first time this happened.

I don't know how I ended up in this world, but if I had to hazard a guess, it might be because of a random wiki I commented on. But I have done that a ton of times, why would this specific wiki reincarnate me?

It was actually a very simple and seemingly harmless question and I would have well chosen the wrong answer depending on my mood.

Now that I think about it, I was really lucky.

There were just three simple questions that only required simple answers.

{ Your Isekai Fantasy #6

The very forces of Fandom Wikis have given you the chance of rebirth and you've kept your memories.

 However, you gained

 One random physiology power or transcendent physiology power

 Two personal physical powers

 Three manipulation powers or lordship powers

No matter how many times you've done it, what six random powers did you choose from the randomizing links above?

Why are why not would you be satisfied with any of these abilities?

And how would you go about taking advantage of any of these abilities? }

Harmless, right? Wrong.

Those simple questions are the ones that got me here. Or so I think.

Thank god that day was on a weekend and I was in a good mood. I literally wrote an essay on how I would use the powers I drew and what world these powers would work best in. And it just happened that I am now in that world.

There were very few worlds in anime where one would truly become overpowered and still have fun, and it was a hard decision choosing between Tensura and Eminence in Shadow but in the end, I prefer Cid Kagenou.

I mean, Rimuru was a total… *cough*, but he was just too smart, and he had the great sage by his side. It was not a smart move to start by his side.

Cid on the other hand was a dumb boy doing dumb things and having fun doing it.

The physiology I drew, after like a hundred draws, was the [Superior Magical Exotic Human Physiology]. There were other options, but it was whatever compared to the other draws.

Two personal powers were honestly a tough choice. I mean, I had already created a whole system revolving around how I was going to bind myself to Cid and benefit from everything that he achieved, so it was difficult choosing something that he did not already have.

Well, one was easy because Cid does not use his brain much, so the first was [Absolute Mind]. I seriously would not forgive myself if I ended up as delusional as Cid just because I decided to shadow him.

The second was [Intuitive Adaptability].

As I said, Cid barely uses his brain in anything that has nothing to do with his Eminence in Shadow fantasy, who knew if I would end up on the other end of his sword even when I deliberately reincarnated as his twin brother?

Ah, I forgot to tell you. I was born right after Cid and named Zak Kagenou.

Absolute mind gave me absolute intelligence and absolute psionics, while intuitive adaptability just made my body adapt to circumstances before they happened.

Like if I were to be stabbed by a knife 10 seconds in the future, my body would gain a regenerative ability to heal the stab wound instantly or a stab-resistant ability that would make my body stab-resistant. Sharp weapons would not work on me anymore.

With these three abilities, I was already overpowered and even staying close to Cid or even Claire was enough to be invincible in a couple of years. But who would want to live in the shadow of main characters like Cid and his Shadows?

Well, that was exactly what I was planning to do, but there is a difference between living in the shadows out of choice and out of circumstance.

The first three abilities had already made my person an absolute and there was nothing that anybody could do to me. I mean, if anything, I was equal to Cid Kagenou, and every time he gets stronger, I get even more so.

Like right now, his technique of controlling the overload of magic that caused Alpha's mutation was, to say the least impressive. Even at the end of the animation, only a few people could use such a technique, but I got the ability to manipulate all organic matter.

Between healing possession and Organikoslinesis, which was stronger? See?! Even Cid might not be my match. But there was no way I was going to try and confirm this.

The plot and plot armor were there for a reason. If I become the first-ever entity to challenge Cid, I don't know what would happen. If I defeated him, the world would literally collapse. It was that serious.

But that was not a problem. At least it was going to stop being a problem when I got too strong for even the plot to do anything about me or the world.

The first ability I got was the [Reader Embodiment] which was much like I was a reader and a character in the story. It was like the gamer's mind and body but with an even more overpowered ability. The Meta Author Defiance.

A reader and an author have a complex relationship. One could even say that a reader is superior to the author in that the author creates to entertain the reader. Or, a reader can sway an author more easily than an author can sway a reader. That was why this ability was OP.

Reader Embodiment gave me immunity to outside interference. I mean, this could be a fanfic or something. I must protect myself from things like plot and mind tempering. The most a higher power can do is ask me politely or make a suggestion. But that was only limited to myself.

The author could change everything else around me except for myself, making this ability my shield and prison against someone beyond the 4th wall.

I hope I never have to use it though.

The second and third abilities were mostly to give me the cheat that I have now. They were the [System Manipulation] and [Conceptual Lordship].

I combined these two to make the system like any good Isekai protagonist should have and that was where the system from earlier came in.

I know that this was a misuse of the true potential of both, in fact, all my abilities, but if I really used these abilities as they were meant to be used, what was the point of being Cid's brother? What was the point of coming to this world?

It would have been better to go to a world like AoT or Dragon Ball. But that would not be as much fun.

There was fun to be had in those worlds, and I might visit them later, but it was not a place where I would set up my base.

Now, where were we… the system.

The system I created with those two abilities was very straightforward and had five simple functions.

One function was to limit my powers. I was already overpowered and there was no denying that, but as much as it was a good thing, it was also a bad thing.

Let's take the example of when I was born. I was already conscious at that time and experienced the whole process. You can't imagine how painful the entire thing was.

What made it even more painful was that my body was adapting with every shift. The more pain the more pain resistant my body became and by the time it was over, my body was as tough as heavy-duty rubber and I could no longer feel pain, or any other stimuli for that matter.

A baby's body is sensitive and the developing brain is usually overwhelmed, that is why they usually sleep all the time even when feeding, it's like they are still asleep. But it was different for me.

I felt everything. My Absolute Mind was already developed and I could process everything, including the fact that I was not breathing. Yeah, my body felt that breathing was too difficult for a newborn and straight up did away with the whole respiratory system.

It was… creepy.

I was almost declared dead were it not for my fast thinking.

Thank god I was clever enough to design this function in the wiki. Every change in my body would be transferred to the system except for the ones that I explicitly wanted to happen to me.

The system was a part of me anyway, so it was still alright.

The second function was the one that happened earlier on. This function shadows a character of my choosing and any accomplishments that the target has will be copied and gifted to me after being matched in a superpower wiki database in fandom.

Yeah, wild.

Cid was born with a healthy body that immediately perceived magic and I was rewarded with [Genetic Perfection].

Cid used magic to adjust and cultivate his body as he grew and I received Mystokinesis(Manipulate Magic), which allowed me to do with magic as I saw fit.

He learned to talk and I received Seismokinesis(Manipulate Vibrations). When he walked, I received Motion Paradox(Unrestricted Movement). I could literary be standing still and walking at the same time.

It was a bit too much. Thank god I could transfer these abilities to the system.

The Third ability was Alpha Reality Fictional Interaction. This was a feature that allowed the system to interact with the Fandom wikis and other fictional things from the Alpha reality, meaning, I could summon anything fictional from the internet as long as it was accessible from the fandom servers.

This feature was sick. Just this feature was enough to create my own universe if I wanted to but… there were disadvantages to this ability.

For one, I could not interact with the Internet, the system would and it was limited to the Fandom servers. This meant that I could only get hold of things that the fandom server could access and not the whole internet. Otherwise, I would have liked to have access to Google servers or Pentagon servers.

The other thing was that there was no particular order or format to the things I got. Let's say I was searching for images. Instead of getting the image, I would get a bunch of numbers and tags. The way computers handle their information is not the same as we see on the screen.

I had to learn computer science just to fix this. The upside was, I could now edit whatever was summoned before it was rendered.

Let's say I summoned Nezuko. I could give her the ability to speak… but that is blasphemy so no.

The limitation that made me helpless however was that everything I did had to be structured. It had to follow the rules of setting up a wiki, maintaining a wiki, and basically developing a wiki community, leaving a trail behind.

I was basically writing a fandom wiki page about my life in this world at this point.

The example of giving Nezuko the ability to speak, I couldn't do it just because I wanted to. It had to follow a system. I could use an empowerment or something from the database.

I could totally ignore all this and just use my other abilities directly, but that would interfere with the plot or something. It would alert the world which would in turn try to eliminate me.

It was all bull, but I liked it. It also gave me a means to interact with real people in the Alpha reality(Original World).

The fourth feature was actually closely related to the third. Just like I could summon anything from a work of fiction, I could also go to any work of fiction.

It was basically a multiverse traveling feature that I could use at any time. The only requirement was that I had to start a new wiki for it. I could also link the worlds together and make them part of the same verse if I wanted, but I was not ready to use this feature yet. The plot was just starting, why would I want to leave?

I could control the concept of time and make it infinitely slow or even stop time, go to another world have fun, and come back, but that was a lot of work.

There was no way I was going to turn into a weeb again who spent all their time on fandom. And the most painful part is that I had to do it using backend development. That is a lot of work. While I could complete it in an instant, why do it?

Why would I waste time making 'My Dress-Up Darling' when all I want from there is Marin? I could just summon her.

But that had to wait for a while. I had to find a logical reason to summon her here for the wiki.

And that was the reason I am interfering with Cid and his Shadow business.

The fifth ability was the Userspace Setup. It was my personal virtual developer environment. I could do whatever I wanted here without consequence.

An infinite virtual realm that allowed me to do things that were imaginable and unimaginable. I was omnipotent in this dreamscape and my will alone was enough to create and destroy anything and everything. But it was too dramatic to do that.

I used this place to essentially tinker with things that would otherwise be impossible in reality.

Like that image data I was talking about. If I tried to decode it right away, I might corrupt it and have to discard it. But in the userspace(Sandbox), I could tinker with it till I was satisfied with the results, then come back to reality and actualize the final result.

As for cost and time, what was that?

It was also the only place where I could unleash my full power without having to worry about anything.

Back to reality…

[Organikóskinesis can be combined with Construct Creation and Formakinesis to give a superior ability, do you want to combine?

<YES > <NO >]

<YES >

[You have received Fabricakinesis(Creation Manipulation).]

I looked at the Alpha who was trying to process her surroundings as Cid went over to a wooden crate to get into his pose.

I can feel a blush coming but forcefully suppress it. Cid's chuunibyou fantasies made him the most powerful man in this verse and there was no way I was going to stop him. The more into the role he got, the more benefits I would reap.

"I have broken the curse that was gnawing away at you…"

Yeah, sorry, I can't bring myself to listen. It was more embarrassing because I was standing right next to him like a lackey. The reverent expression made the whole thing more solemn.

"My name is Styl… No, Shadow, he who lurks in the shadows to hunt the shadows…"

Yeah, the chuuni is thick, and this girl gobbles it all up, just like I did and it was funny watching her serious expression as she swore herself to Cid.

A 10-year-old shota and a 10-year-old loli…

"Okay! We'll call our organization Shadow Garden, and the name you shall answer to is Alpha."

'Did I just get ignored?! That…'

*Ding*

[Your target has formed a force Shadow Garden taking the name Shadow - Reward; Force Establishment Card, Template Card.

Cid has taken Alpha as his first recruit - Reward; Summoning Card.]

"…"

Forget about it.

With how cute I am, you'd think that I get all the attention around. I mean, I have genetic perfection. But no, it is like everyone subconsciously ignores me.

Even at home, the person with the biggest presence is Claire who is still obsessed with Cid. I on the other hand was left alone from the very beginning.

But that was okay. I spent most of my time alone, doing research on this and that so it was a good thing that they paid me no mind.

It also helps that I am the youngest. I could rightfully follow Cid whenever he went and used this chance to get close to him. At least he ignored me less.

Just put on a cute expression and listen to him preach about his eminence in shadow plan and that was enough to please him. One could say that I was part of Shadow Garden ages before it was even founded.

I should get back to my research.

"Force Establishment Card, Template Card, and Summoning Card, huh… seems like I will be busy for a while."
