"This is Corazon. He formerly served in a certain world's Navy and died protecting a child from his own brother." Aoto offered the people in the area the shortest description possible. When they first learned that he was a member of the Navy, they breathed with satisfaction, but when they learned that he had died protecting his child from his own brother, they shuddered.
Slowly rising to his feet, Corzon grinned broadly at everyone. Though he didn't recognize any of these people, but one thing he did know was that he was brought here to protect the young man here.
"Killed by his brother?" John enquired.
"Are you serious?" In his rage, Edward was visibly shaking. After his parents passed away, Alphonse was the last remaining family member he had, and now he was hearing a tale about a brother who had murdered another brother.
"Doesn't that mean he is dead?" Winry enquired because she still had the mental capacity to address the crucial matter.
"Well. I brought this guy here and gave him life with my arbitrary powers." Added Aoto. The fact that a dead person could be brought back to life startled Ed the most since, throughout his life, he had believed that a dead person could never be brought back to life.
"Can you please revive my mother?" Ed asked, his eyes filled with great anticipation. It had been a long time but that weird obsession of bringing his smiling mother to life hadn't faded away.
"I'm sorry to everyone. Although I'm sure that everyone would like to have their deceased loved ones back in their life, my abilities are very limited, therefore I can't really help you unless I fulfill several requirements. I apologize." Aoto spoke the truth. He had let them see how he had brought this man to life and it was just a random occurrence.
Ed and the others were a little disappointed to be shot down in such a manner, but they understood the point. Meanwhile, Corazon didn't care if he was alive or not and just wanted to know of the child.
"What happened to Law? Do you know where is he?" Since the man here, whom he was meant to guard, seemed to be quite knowledgeable, Corazon inquired.
"You have been dead for quite a long time. Law had already grown and living his life."
"Did he join the marine?" Corazon enquired because he anticipated Law would behave well in the future.
"Do you think he would be safe with the World Government after what your brother did and the way the Navy was after the Devil fruit?" Asked again by Aoto. Corazon got silent. He knew how badly the World Government needed that Devil Fruit and what was supposed to be done with the fruit.
"He became a pirate. Made friends and defeated your brother who is rotting in jail at the moment. Later he goes on to defeat Big Mom." Slowly, Aoto spoke.
"What?" When Corazon heard that, he was very alert. Law defeated a Yonko and his brother? What on earth just happened?
"I will tell you the story later. For now enjoy your new life." Added Aoto. He lacked the patience to patiently tell the fascinating and lengthy tale of Law. Hearing the fresh information slightly aroused Corazon, and he was prepared to wait to hear the tale.
"So I'm supposed to always keep you safe?" Corazon enquired.
"All times? No. You should be aware that I own a store. Everything in the store is secure. Your assistance will only be needed when I leave." Added Aoto. Corazon nodded as he had got a very information of his work and what he was supposed to do. Even though he was mostly fuzzy, he was prepared to wait it out because he could tell that this guy also wanted to do something else.
Aoto then walked to the last wheel that was standing in the white space. The first one was white, the second was red, and this one was simply packed with a variety of hues, each of which contained a question mark.
"System how do I exchange my credits for a better assessment?"
[
In this evaluation, host credits cannot be traded. The host will be allowed to have an evolved talent, per his present credits.
]
"Evolved talent?"
[
The host needs to understand that he has been brought from a different world and you have no talent whatsoever. You are like a white canvas. When the host opts for a side career in the credits system, he will be given an evolved talent. He will start out with the absolute lowest talent, but that talent won't last forever. With his perseverance and hard effort, he will be able to rise gradually.
]
"That's .. That's fantastic. Thank you."
[
The host is getting the evolved talent status because of the initial discount of the credits system.
]
"Again, thank you." Aoto believed that the system was just being kind to him because this "evolved talent" thing was a rare thing.
Without further delay, Aoto began to turn the wheel. By that time, the others had gathered around him and were interested to know what kind of wheel it was. In order to ensure that Corazon was included, Hot Pie also informed him of what was happening.
The pointer eventually halted on a question mark as the "rainbow" wheel spun quickly. The inquiry suddenly surfaced, and a brief sentence slowly emerged. One that made Aoto incredibly happy.
"Power system - Magic from the world of Marvel."
A magic system that was really powerful. Well, in customary sense the magic system of the Marvel world wasn't powerful but then the Dr. Strange in What if? series was a godlike being. And the good part for Aoto was that his talent would be ever evolving so one day he could definitely reach his power levels. Theoretically he could reach his level one day.
Of course, it would take a lot of time to get there, but he was willing to put in the effort.
