Grand Zeno Of DXD

Chapter 2 - Deep into the Root (Part 2)

MC POV

"I think I can answer this question for you," said an ethereal feminine voice. Turning towards the origin, I was totally surprised and mesmerized at the person in front of me. He/She has a long emerald hair that flow down to his/her ankle. He/She wears a long cloak that covers her whole-self except his/her head, hands and feet. She seems to wear a sort of whistle with a long rope around her neck. And I happen to know the name of this divine-like person. Her name is.....

"Enkidu, my name is Enkidu. Are you done admiring at me?" said Enkidu. I was surprised again, this time for how she know what I was thinking. Thankfully, Enkidu answered my question, "For that question, lets just say the Root knows and records all." So that's how it was, huh. "So, since I'm here, what will I get from here?" I asked her wanting to know what kind of True magic will I have. The answer I received totally caught me off guard.

She replied with an amused smile, "I think you are misunderstanding something, O one who rules all." What the heck is she saying? I don't get it quite clearly. The one who rules all huh? Well that may happen in the distant future depending on what I will get. So I want her to clarify on what she meant. She answered, "I mean what I mean. You will get your answers in a moment. Now, you need to know somethings." So there is something different here, huh. "Yes, there is. The first thing you need to know is that the Root you are in is not the Root of the Nasuverse. Rather..." I finished her sentence with "The Root I'm in is connected to all multiverse, which includes anime, movies, wuxia, and many else. If that's what you mean." Enkidu was amused hearing my answer and said "I never thought you are that smart. From the record, you are just an ordinary person, Hajime." My face flushed with red as I heard her praise. "Well, since I know that the Root records all kinds of history, I thought it may apply to the other worlds as well," I meekly replied, still flushing red with the praise and the beauty he/she emit.

"Enough with the lushes and such. I will tell you what is going on here. First thing first, you died." Shocked, that was the only thing I could do. And also confused, on how did I died when I was just sleeping. "As for how you died," Enkidu continued, "I don't know the reason of it. You really are lucky to reach this place even after your death. And for that, the Root is willing to compensate you for its negligence over your death." Now this was what I was waiting for. "So what would I get?" I asked her giddy at the thought of getting those True Magics and some other overpowered things that would complement the True Magics. And the answer, well lets just say I was over the Throne of Heros if you get what I mean. "You will e given 7 wishes of your own choice, regardless the impossibility of it existing, and it will e without side effects. This also includes the 5 True Magics that you were thinking to wish for." Now that was a pleasant reply to me and she also said that I can wish for the 5 True Magics, I will just do what I have planned to get.

After taking a moment or two to think for what should I ask for the rest of the wish, I have made my decision. "I'm ready to make my wishes," I said resolutely. "Splendid," Enkidu replied with a neutral smile, "What are your wishes? The Root will give you anything you want." This is it, the moment of truth.

"My 1st wish is to gain the 5 True Magics with the knowledge on how to use it." The shot is taken, will this wish be granted? I hope it is. Because once I get it, Ho Ho Ho.....................

"That's a very easy wish. The True Magics are what the Root truly gives so it's not a problem. Though, the 4th Magic is not exactly what you think of," Okay, I was slightly surprised upon hearing this thing but, "It has domain over the mind but, it also has another effect. An effect that you will very much like." Okay, I was hooked on what she will be saying and I was not disappointed on hearing it. Instead, it goes the opposite. I was very elated and glad that I do not need to use a wish for that one. It is... "It also let you have instant mastery and instant comprehension to any kind of knowledge, technique. powers, spells and much more." Yep folks, 'Instant Mastery' and 'Instant Comprehension' that I was willing to use a wish for that if not for the 4th Magics ability. And I know why. Since it is the magic of the domain of the mind, the mind itself has been transcended to the highest form, allowing it to learn everything instantly.

Continuing my wish, "My 2nd wish is to have 'The Library of Heaven's Path.' It would be great if I have a library where I can get all the information I need on a whim. It should have all the knowledge that the Root have, well not the too s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e things."

Her reply was, "I can give you something better than this." She then proceeded to summon a golden grimoire. It was beautiful in its own way with the sign of Grand Order on the cover. I could guess what it was but I waited for her explanation. "The grimoire that you are seeing is the book of 'Akashic Records.' This will give you any information that you need from this grimoire so you don't need to peer into the library. Would that suffice?" I was gobsmacked on hearing this. I'm given the very book of 'Akashic Records'? And she said would that suffice? I retorted in a pleasant mood "Suffice? SUFFICE? This is more than suffice. You are giving me the Akashic Records for this?" She was taken back at my retort, but did not get angry on it. "Oh! I thought it would be SUFFICE for you instead of 'Library of Heaven's Path'. But since the offer has been done, you will have to take it. Not that you would mind right?" to which I replied "Nope, not at all." And I continued "My 3rd wish is.....
