4 Superhero Series

In Clay's mind as he closed his eyes as opening it seemed useless. He saw a list of abilities and their description. There were abilities that gave the holder what people would label as Absolute. And it was categorized just like that. The Absolute series with Absolute Strength at the top followed by Absolute Offense, Defense, Speed, Magic, Knowledge and so on the list went on. There were also the Ultimate series on the top which was, a series of talents and skills that are maxed out beyond mastery. There were oddball abilities like the Superhero Series, Production Series, and lastly Resistance series.

However, Clay stopped scrolling as scrolling all the way down was seemingly impossible. He saw what he liked already. Each time he stopped to look at an Ability, Imhoteph's voice follows with the explanation of how much of his soul this ability would consume. So. like that, he spent more time that necessary to select the proper amount of abilities that could fill his soul to the brim.

In the time that Clay thought about which abilities to have, he asked Imhoteph a question suddenly.

"Am I allowed to mix and match two or more different abilities?"

To such a question Imhoteph answered promptly,

[You can as you say "mix and match" these abilities. Without worrying about side effects as it is your soul which will receive the abilities and incorporate them into your body.]

Clay followed up with,

"So then if I decided on these two, I will have no more space for other abilities? And can I customize these abilities, if I can, how much would that cost?"

[Yes, but if what you mean to ask is if you'll be unable to learn anymore skills and abilities in the world you're to be in, then that is not so. What we are dealing with here is the capacity of your soul. As if your soul capacity is left alone, Demonic Spirits will be able to possess you quite easily. That is the reason of us, convening here to decide on what to do with your soul. And to your other queries, yes you can at a slight increase in capacity it will consume, in fact it may even reduce the capacity it consumes depending on the customization.]

True to his job description, Imhoteph guided Clay.

Should I choose these two then? Clay thought as he came to finalize his choices. He had modified Superman's genes and eliminated his weakness to Kryptonite. And Deadpool's Regeneration was modified so that he could regenerate even from a singular cell.

"Are these two suitable for me?" Clay asked.

[It is your choice. I cannot interfere in your decision. However, if you chose those two, a small portion of your soul will still be void. Let me eliminate the excessively costly abilities and show you a list befitting of the excess capacity.]

The Absolute Series, the Ultimate and even the Superhero Series of abilities disappeared and was replaced with normal looking skills in production or combat skills. Abilities like Cooking Master; Alchemy Master; Smithing Master; Weapons Master; Farming Master; and so on.

"I choose Alchemy Master." With its description being,

Alchemy Master

«One is a master over herbs and the chemical relationship of substances on an atomic level while also having mastery over concoctions and decoctions. Mastery of Heat comes with it. »

Then as if time was no longer available, Imhoteph warned Clay to be ready for what's to come.

[If you have chosen your abilities, then let us proceed to have you granted these. Brace yourself, this will be soul-rending painful. You might faint and wake up just to faint yet again in this process. This process will last a long time. So, prepare your heart and mind. Do not give up, I caution you.]

"W-Wait, w-what? There's pain? I thought it would just be snap of your fingers and all will be alright?" Clay became more flustered as the warning was quite serious. It did not sit well with his easy-going personality.

[This is not so. I can "snap my fingers" for destroying worlds, as you say, but a soul is far more resilient than any world combined, especially a soul like those from earth. A soul just cannot be destroyed. Are you ready?]

Imhoteph, made certain he was ready and then started the infusion.

"Y-Yes, I guess. But really, will it be very painf– !?" With a scream just before finishing his sentence Clay entered a world of pain. Screaming and feeling like his insides were bare and someone was cooking stew on his chest, then stirring it with needles and razors, furthermore, going to the extent of heating him up to stir fry some other things. What have I gotten myself into! Clay shouted in his mind as he fell unconscious.
