《Devil Cultivator in an Ability User World》(Rewritten) Chapter 6 - Awakening Procedure and Induction Day at the Academy Nearing (Part 2)

POV Change - Dr. Yuka
As Dr. Yuka watched the tall boy in the pod about to undergo his awakening, she had a feeling that something big was about to happen, she couldn't place it but it felt like she was witnessing the birth of something incredible.
Realizing she was letting her focus slip, she scolded herself mentally.
'Focus Yuka, think about stuff like this when he's awakened and not at risk due to a mistake you could make while daydreaming.'
As soon as she thought this, there was a beeping sound to her right and she looked at it and spoke "Hm? Seems like Damien is about to awaken Mrs.Nether."
Lara, the boy's Mother hurried over with his Sister, Sara, and they both watched the monitor with her and this was when the boy lifted his arm and squeezed his fist with force beyond that of most humans and it seemed to push the air away from it with the force, this was accompanied by a flash of text on a monitor next to the one playing the live footage of the pod
[Physical Augmentation and Concentration] Rank S+
The user of this ability has access to a near inexhaustable pool of energy in their body, the energy can never run out but there is a limit to how much energy you can use at any given time. They can use said energy to augment their strength and/or concentrate it into a single body part to perform a multitude of impressive feats.
However, no matter how powerful this ability is, it's near unusable unless the person has a particularly durable body.*
Sub-ability: Enhanced Structure - The body's materials are upgraded in Durability to withstand the power and energy of the Ability held within it.
( *Author Note: This is his new ability. It merges with his Devil Arts way better and allows him to focus 100% on being a warrior. If you don't get what the ability is, it's One For All from My Hero Academia~ )
All three of the people looking at the screen were shocked, while Yuka thought he'd be strong, she didn't expect a Rank S+ Ability.
'A Rank S+?! Oh my, what a talented kid, looks like I actually have witnessed the birth of someone strong. And he even has such a good sub-ability. Wow.'
It was at this time that she heard the mother and daughter laughing in a creepy and manic way.
"Haha this is what I expect from my little angel Damien!" his mother nearly squealed with joy.
"You're right Mother, Big Bro was bound to be talented and the best hahaha!" as the mother and daughter pair kept talking about how the boy was amazing, Dr. Yuka couldn't help but feel sorry for the boy when she looked at this obvious Son-con and Bro-con.

'Does this poor kid experience this all the time? I kinda wanna adopt him away from this suspicious family~'
As she joked in her head, there was another flash of text on the screen after the previous text, Dr. Yuka looked at it quickly with a surprised but curious expression that quickly turned into a shocked one
[Limitless Body and Mind] (Passive) Rank ??
Most people collapse and give up when they exert themselves to an unimaginable degree or when they experience an ungodly amount of pain, but the user of this ability can keep pushing and with even more fervor than before, this allows them to break past their limits whether they be physical or mental when placed under great pressure, this makes them Limitless. (Takes a massive amount of pressure/training to break past limits but it's possible with this ability unlike other people who will always hit a plateau no matter how hard they train)
Even his biggest fans, his Mother and Sister, were shocked into silence with their mouths agape. As Dr. Yuka let out a cold breath through her teeth, as she wiped some none existent cold sweat off of her brow and while doing so she could only mutter a few words about that boy and they were--
"What a monstrous freak..."
POV Change - Damien, a few minutes later
As Damien walked out of the pod, he was met with 3 faces looking at him like he was some sort of monster, Damien looked down at his body and felt his face because he thought he might have entered his Devil Form but he hadn't.
"Why are you all looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong or something?" he innocently asked.
To which the doctors face twitched and smiled a smile that may have looked like one but it definitely didn't feel like one with the dead look in her eyes.
"No no no, you little monster, you haven't done anything wrong, you've just shown us normal people what a genius is kekeke"
'Why does she sound dead inside? And what's up with that laugh?'
Instantly, Damien went deadpan, feeling that his doctor was a weird person. He also started to feel he attracted all the weird people in this new life of his.
Damien decided to put this in the pile of things he'd ponder on later, along with Girls and Technology. "Uhh..okay I guess. Well can I see what my abilities are?" he asked with a low voice, to which the smiling doctor twitched again.
"Of course you can." Her smile looking slightly strained as she looked at Damien's indifference and mistook it for him not understanding his own talent.
As Damien looked over his powers he was incredibly excited. His first ability would allow him to control and use energy to improve his already herculean strength while also concentrating it to produce even more devastating attacks.

While looking at his second ability he was equally as excited because he had been contemplating on how to make it so he could repeatedly push past his limits and now that he has this ability, that question had been answered.
To clarify, these limits were different limits compared to the Human Body Limits he had removed. These limits were to do with the amount of strength he could train, whereas the Human Body Limiters stopped him from using his full strength. One limits his potential strength and the other limits his current strength, or at least they used to.
"Wow, I really have some strong abilities, don't I?" as soon as he said this, he regretted doing so as he was being glared at by the Doctor who he'd worked out that she seemed jealous of him.
'I didn't pick my abilities, why are you glaring at me?! Glare at God if you want to blame anyone!'
He yelled mentally at the Doctor and before he could say anything else his sister came into his view. She had adoration in her eyes like she was looking at something worthy of worship.
'...Having strong abilities is good and all but I think me awakening strong abilities has accelerated my sisters bro-con disease...please fade with age, please fade with age...'
He started to chant his mantra in his head, he felt a strong force pull him into what he would only ever refer to as a choke hold before a happy and joyful voice entered his ears.
"Hahaha my baby boy a genius, I'm so proud of you! We better get back to tell your Father and get you prepared for your academy induction day!"
Dropping her 'loving' mother face, Damien's mom put on a serious but thankful look as she let go of Damien and looked toward Dr. Yuka's direction.
"Thank you, Dr. Yuka, we'll be going now, goodbye" she did a slight curtsy before leaving.
As they left the room, Damien heard the doctor quietly speak.
"I'm definitely quitting my job, maybe I'll go join an academy as school doctor or something..."
After that they traveled back home to his Father to tell him the good news, as they told him he jumped up from the chair he was on, laughing with a smile that exuded happiness, he walked over to Damien and clasped his hands on his shoulders and joyfully spoke.
"That's my boy, we always knew you were gonna be a genius haha!" as his Father said that his Father's phone went off, he looked at the screen and his smile stiffened, it was only slightly but Damien saw it and he wondered what could make his Father do that.
As Damien thought about this, his Father spoke.
"I've got to go somewhere, got some business to do, see you three later, okay?" Everyone said goodbye to him and went to sit down in the living room.
To start a conversation Damien asked his Mother "So what was that induction day you were talking about?"
He asked this because he hadn't been told anything about it and he hadn't seen anything about it on the Internet either. To his questions, his Mother replied "Ah, yes, thank you for reminding me, sweetie. It's in about a week and you'll be going to the academy you chose for a few days to get used to academy life and see how the academy is and how life there will be."
But before he could reply to his mother, Sara interrupted the conversation.
"Big Bro's going away for a few days? Why? Does he have to?" she asked with a worried expression on her face, to calm her down Damien brought her closer to him and put her on his leg and patted her head.
"Sara I can't always be around here, I have to go to that induction day if I want to get accepted by the Academy, right Mom?"
"Yep, if he doesn't go Sara you're brother will get in big trouble. You don't want to get him in trouble do you?"
Hearing this and after being placated with head pats she replied with "No..I'm just gonna miss Big Bro a lot" hearing this Damien patted her head again and said "It's only a few days, when I get back I'll play with you for a whole day okay?"
When she heard this, Sara quickly nodded her head in fear that the offer would be taken back "Okay okay, I'll wait for you to come back Big Bro, but you better keep your promise!"
After this Sara went to her room to go do whatever a 7-year-old girl does and before they knew it, it was just Damien and his Mother in the room. All his mother did was look at him with a loving gaze before speaking to him.
"Go get used to your abilities so you can make sure to show that the scion of the Nether Family is strong and talented when you're at your induction day, okay?"
Seeing her expectations, for some reason, Damien couldn't help but think he didn't want to let her down. Sort of like her expectations was bigger than his own needs. Nonetheless, he mentally shook himself out of it and looked up at his mom with his trademark confident smile.
"Okay Mom, I won't let you down".
Then he turned around to head to the back courtyard to practice with his power for the induction day next week.

Cycles of Ruin
Civilizations rise and fall. Kith build them up and monsters, led by powerful dungeon keepers, bring them to ruin. For three thousand years the cycle has been maintained by the Guild of Chaos and its endless hordes of minions who—in absence of their long lost creators—have taken it upon themselves to keep the realms of the universe in balance. The Guild has grown efficient at this task, but some among its ranks have begun to ponder the utility of a universe that has been robbed of the very possibility of change. Basil von Doom is one such dungeon keeper working for the Guild, leading an army of loyal minions from one conquest to the next; burning civilizations and sifting through the ruins in search of forbidden knowledge that the races of kith were never meant to possess. But having spent more than half a century in pursuit of glory and fame—trying to live up to the legacy of his father—Basil has grown indifferent towards his work. Desperate for a worthy challenge, but bound by his duties as a dungeon keeper, he has turned his mind towards uncovering the ultimate fate of the previous master of his house and the secrets that were buried with him. Now the young Master of House Doom must balance his growing interest in pursuing the trail of his father with the responsibilities that come with running a dungeon in service to the Guild of Chaos. To remain in good standing with the Guild, Basil has even accepted the task of mentoring an apprentice dungeon keeper, a young succubus named Elnora. It is at the tail end of her apprenticeship that the story begins; with a civilization poised to fall—its greatest heroes gathering for one last assault on the heart of darkness—and Basil striking up a conversation with his apprentice that will set into motion the unraveling of the universe. ***This is a rewrite and continuation of my story that was first posted on RoyalRoad a few years ago.
