"Wait a second! But I'm the only member here! How am I supposed to use the benefits like this?" Rozen exclaimed, scratching his head in frustration.
[Ding! Do you want to invite other members?]
Upon seeing this, Rozen's face broke into a wide smile. Without a moment's hesitation, he replied, "Invite!"
[Sending invitations to characters that match the Chat Group's criteria...]
As the chat group hummed to life, Rozen waited, his heart pounding with expectation and hope. His feet tapped restlessly against the ground, a rhythmic echo of his mounting excitement.
Please... let it be an overpowered character! Please! Not someone weak! At least someone with powers as cheat-like as mine! Please!
A few minutes later, another panel flickered into existence before him.
['Nah I'd Win' has joined the group!]
It's him? The famous Gojo Satoru?
When he realized Gojo Satoru was the new member, Rozen felt a pang of disappointment. Sure, Gojo was undeniably powerful—worthy of the "overpowered" label—but in the vast hierarchy of anime and fiction, others towered above even him.
Should I copy his Six Eyes? Hmm... no, forget it. I'll hold out for another powerful member. It'd be a waste to use this chance now when there are far more broken, overpowered abilities out there.
Yet, just as Rozen teetered on the edge of giving up, a new panel suddenly flashed into view, heralding the arrival of another member.
['Mary Sue' has joined the group!]
"What?! Mary Sue? Who's that?"
He bolted upright from his seat, eyes widening in shock. His mind scrambled furiously, grasping for any clue about this mysterious new member's identity.
Who is it?! Who the hell is Mary Sue?! Come on, Rozen, think!
No matter how hard he racked his brain, no recognizable figure came to mind. It wasn't his fault—he'd been disconnected from the worlds of anime and manga for years.
[Nah I'd Win: Omoshiroi(Interesting)! What a curious turn of events! A sci-fi panel suddenly appeared into my mind, unnoticed and undetected. Is this the prank of some mischievous Jujutsu Sorcerer? Or perhaps... a trap?]
[Admin: Nope! It's not what you think! By the way, just to confirm—you're Gojo Satoru, right?]
[Nah I'd Win: Oh? You know who I am? Then how dare you slip this thing into my mind without a second thought?]
In a different universe, within an entirely separate cosmology, Gojo Satoru strolled leisurely through a bustling street. The crowd buzzed around him, a blur of voices and footsteps, until he suddenly stopped.
His piercing blue eyes locked onto a translucent panel flickering in his mind's eye, a mix of intrigue and a sly smirk tugging at his lips.
This admin... not even a tremor of fear, despite knowing me—Gojo Satoru, the unrivaled Jujutsu Sorcerer of this era!
His thoughts dripped with narcissism, perfectly in tune with his earlier bravado. After all, he wasn't just any sorcerer—he was the strongest in the world. His very birth had shifted the balance of existence itself.
But then, a flicker of doubt crept in.
How had this 'panel' breached my defenses?
Honestly, he hadn't even sensed it—not until that voice echoed in his head. His Six Eyes, flawless in their perception, had missed it entirely.
His smirk faded, giving way to a solemn frown. For all his power, the sudden appearance of this chat group in his mind had rattled him.
He couldn't shake the chilling realization: whoever crafted this could easily use it to kill him, slipping past his awareness like a shadow. The thought sent a cold shiver racing down his spine.
Or maybe it's not a Jujutsu technique at all—could it be advanced technology?
That would explain why his Six Eyes couldn't detect it. Lost in thought, Gojo mulled over the possibilities behind this mysterious intrusion.
Then, another voice broke through the chat.
[Mary Sue: Wow! Is this alien technology? Or an Abnormality? Maybe even a Minus I've never heard of? But it's weird—if it's any of those, I should be able to copy it by now, and yet I can't.]
The words "Abnormality" and "Minus" hit Rozen like a thunderbolt. In an instant, the puzzle snapped together, revealing the speaker's identity. The shock stole his breath, his eyes widening in disbelief.
It's Medaka Kurokami! Holy shit! A character of her caliber is in this group!
His heart pounded furiously, a wild drumbeat of exhilaration. If he weren't stuck in the stifling silence of the clinic, he'd have let loose—shouting with glee, bouncing off the walls in a burst of pure joy.
But restraint wouldn't hold him for long. Throwing caution aside, Rozen dashed out of the clinic, his feet pounding the ground in a frantic sprint. Onlookers stared, bewildered and curious, as he tore past them without explanation.
"Fuck yeah! Woohoo! This is exactly what I've been waiting for, baby!" Rozen's voice exploded into the air, arms flung wide to the sky. His laughter rang out, wild and triumphant, a anthem of unrestrained excitement.
As his initial surge of excitement began to wane, Rozen drew a deep breath, attempting to steady his nerves—though his efforts proved futile, as his heart continued to pound furiously at the mere prospect of replicating Medaka Kurokami's extraordinary abilities.
"Alright, keep it together! Phew, let's see what this system can do now!" he declared, a wide, uncontainable grin stretching across his face. With eager anticipation, Rozen issued his next command to the system: "System! Use the opportunity to copy another member!"
[Ding! Please select a member to copy:
- Nah I'd Win
- Mary Sue]
"Mary Sue, of course!" Rozen exclaimed instantly, his voice brimming with certainty.
[Ding! Here's the list of attributes available for copying from Mary Sue:
Abilities: The End, Body Supremacy, Archaism Repertory, Contact For You, Crossing, Bowling Strike...
Traits: Main Protagonist, Absolute Genius, Mary Sue, Saintly Woman, Devilish Woman...
Skills: Boxing, Karate, Judo, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Silat...
]
The system's panel unveiled an astonishingly extensive catalog of skills, abilities, and traits belonging to Medaka Kurokami. Ranging from the seemingly mundane to the undeniably powerful, the sheer volume of options left Rozen utterly mesmerized.
These two traits! Should I pick them instead of The End?
Rozen pondered deeply, his gaze locked on 'Main Protagonist' and 'Mary Sue'. From what he recalled, these two traits were the very essence of what rendered even a godlike entity like Ajimu Najimi powerless against Medaka in her world.
After all, Ajimu Najimi was no ordinary being. She was an ancient existence, trillions of years old—predating the universe itself—and wielded an incomprehensible arsenal of Minuses and Abnormalities, numbering perhaps in the quadrillions! Yet, despite her overwhelming might, she could never overcome Medaka Kurokami, all because of the 'Main Protagonist' trait.
The idea seemed absurd at first glance. In countless other stories, main characters often fell to supporting or concluding figures—but not Medaka. This trait cloaked her in an aura of invincibility, setting her apart from the rest.
The allure of selecting those two traits tugged at Rozen relentlessly, tempting him beyond measure. Yet, he clenched his fists, forcibly reining in his impulses.
Ultimately, he resolved to copy Medaka's Abnormality, 'The End'. His reasoning was straightforward yet profound: in his mind, even if someone bore the title of Mary Sue or Main Character and appeared untouchable, true strength—raw, unadulterated power—remained the ultimate arbiter. Traits might bend fate, but power reigned supreme.
"Enough hesitation—choose 'The End' to copy!" he ordered decisively, his tone unwavering.
[Ding! Copying and transplanting the power into the Admin's existence...]
At that precise moment, it was as if a Big Bang detonated within him—or, more accurately, rippled through the entirety of his existence. Rozen's consciousness dissolved into a blinding white expanse, engulfing him in an instant.
When awareness returned, after what felt like both a fleeting second and an impossibly vast stretch of time, Rozen immediately sensed the transformation that had taken root within him.
His body hadn't undergone a dramatic overhaul—just a subtle boost in strength—but the true marvel lay elsewhere: in the staggering leap of his intelligence and intuition. It was as though his mind had ignited, blazing with a clarity and potential he'd never known.
He couldn't quite explain it, but an unshakable certainty bloomed within him: he could now learn and accomplish anything. No task was too daunting, no feat too impossible—not even those deemed beyond human reach. Every fragment of knowledge, every skill he'd ever studied, glimpsed, or brushed against in his lifetime, crystallized in his mind. With breathtaking precision, he had mastered them all in an instant.
Is this the power of 'The End'?
he marveled inwardly.
This cheat skill is beyond extraordinary—it's downright overpowered! I feel like even the talents of the geniuses from the Genius Club in this universe pale in comparison to what I've become.
His claim was no idle boast. Imagine a being capable of absorbing and perfecting any skill, ability, or scrap of knowledge with merely a glance or a whisper of information. That wasn't just genius—it transcended humanity entirely, veering into the realm of the inhuman, the monstrous.
Yet, amidst the euphoria, a realization tempered his excitement.
There's a flaw in this power. I can't wield abilities that exceed my physical capabilities.
It's true, as Rozen had noted earlier: he couldn't wield abilities or skills that demanded physical capabilities beyond his own limits. Take Saitama's Serious Punch, for instance—he could copy it perfectly, but he'd never replicate its earth-shattering force. His physical strength simply didn't match Saitama's godlike power.
Even though the replication was flawless in form, it couldn't capture the exact potency of the original. That was the Achilles' heel of 'The End': its weakness lay in copying anything tied to raw physical might.
But then, a spark of realization lit up his mind.
"I can enhance it with the upgrade opportunity the Chat Group just gave me!"
A grin stretched from ear to ear, brimming with unchecked glee. "System!" he commanded with fervor, "Use the upgrade chance to boost 'The End'!"
[Ding! Request accepted! Upgrading the power 'The End'…]
A radiant aurora erupted from Rozen's body, bathing him in shimmering hues of light. He shut his eyes, surrendering to the sensation of his ability evolving within him. Moments later, the glow subsided, and as it faded, he snapped his eyes open—alive with exhilaration and unrestrained joy.
A sly smirk curled his lips as he summoned the panel to inspect his newly enhanced ability. "With this, my copying power is truly perfect now! Hahahahaha!" he crowed, his laughter echoing with triumphant delight.
[Omega: The ability to learn and copy anything—powers, skills, techniques, movements, knowledge, physical attributes, and beyond. Capable of utilizing copied abilities or skills at 240% of their original strength.]
This was no mere tweak—it was a fusion of 'The End' with the essence of 'Migeika', the copying ability of Nanami Yasuri from the Katanagatari series, who could mirror both the strength and physicality of her foes.
"I'm ridiculously lucky!" Rozen exclaimed, his voice a mix of awe and mania. "Hahahahaha!"
