I am the God of Technology



Man, so many options…

Dante was spoiled for choice as he scrolled down into the hundreds, then the thousands, seeing various eyes from all sorts of mythologies, fiction, and even conceptual eyes designed by the world creator.

Based on what Dante lacked and needed, the Sharingan and its ilk were his best options, but Dante was not stupid. He was not a natural-born Uchiha, so even though he could use the Sharingan, he could not turn it off and it would drain more than twice the energy from a typical Uchiha to use.

Kakashi's suffering was a typical example. You think he wanted to walk around with one eye covered all the time? He had to cover his right eye because if he didn't, the transplanted Sharingan from Obito would suck him dry.

Not to mention that the Sharingan had ridiculous demands. To unlock even one tomoe depended on luck and bloodline, and to increase from there you must undergo emotional and mental suffering. Let's not talk about the Mangekyo which literally requires the pain of loss, genuine pain.

Even then, you were at risk of going blind unless you dug out the Mangekyo Sharingan of a family member with your own hands!

What the heck!

The Rinnegan sounded great but was useless to him. Of its various six paths abilities, the Deva Path, which granted the ability to manipulate attractive and repulsive forces, allowing the user to push or pull objects, repel attacks, and create barriers, could be achieved by his Magus abilities.

Then there was the Asura Path, which enhanced the user's physical abilities and allowed them to create mechanized weaponry and armor. He had Absorption in the Apocalypse World for stats and his base on Earth for tech.

Next was the Human Path, which enabled the user to read the thoughts and memories of others by physically touching them, was useless given that Dante's Inferno Ascension technique could achieve this, not to mention he now had telepathy from his high Intelligence stat.

Even worse was the Animal Path, which allowed the user to summon and control various creatures and animals for combat or reconnaissance. If it wasn't for his lack of necessity, he would have entered a Beast Taming world from the school and contracted a powerful beast.

The only slightly useful one would be the Preta Path, which absorbed energy-based attacks and projectiles, rendering them harmless. It could even absorb physical attacks to a certain extent, but his Inferno Ascension technique once again had something for that.

Finally, there was the Naraka Path, which summoned the King of Hell, a creature that could judge and interrogate souls. It was basically the same as the human path except for the fact that it could also heal injuries.

Really, the only thing Dante might want the Rinnegan for was the ability of resurrection that came with it. Every other one of its abilities could be replicated elsewhere. Even the resurrection didn't move him because it came with steep costs to the user, whereas he could just have his future protagonists farm such resources for him with low effort.

Dante scanned through the other eyes and shook his head many times. The Alpha Stigma was useless and even had a flaw, the All-Seeing Eyes required a contract with a God to work, the Geass was not worth it since he could enslave people with his hellfire later on.

What made Dante feel a strong desire and greed were the Eye of Agamotto and the Abyssal Eye. Time manipulation abilities were not easy to get, and it was something that Dante could say would be worth the cost.

However, the issue was that Quantum Entanglement was not a space superpower, but a spacetime superpower. It had elements of time control ahead that Dante sensed when he tried to enhance his superpower to the C Rank.

So he hesitated due to this fact. In the end, he continued looking down until he came to the conceptual eyes, in which he paused. He found that the creator of this world was probably someone who was thoroughly obsessed with eye techniques because he seemed to have the same issue that Dante did.

As such, he generated many eyes that mixed and matched abilities from the others. However, due to balancing issues for his world, he gave them various limitations to make sure that he did not overdo it.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Dante slowly went through them, noting the ones that were useful to him. Of course, at 1000 Intelligence, Dante's 'slowly' was flash speed to a normal person. Within the span of a second, he had highlighted three choices for himself.

[Shortlisted options

1. Eye of Truth (100 EC): This eye technique allows the user to not only see through all lies and barriers but also allows them to initiate binding contracts with other parties that cannot be easily violated.

2. Eye of Soul (100 EC): This eye technique allows the user to see the soul bodies of others and manipulate them depending on the soul strength between the two parties.

3. Eye of Illusions (100 EC): This eye technique allows the user to be immune to all illusions, be able to see the supernatural and place any and all beings under the effect of an illusion,]

All of them cost the maximum amount because their utilities were great and the shortcomings were few. Of the three, Dante least wanted the first one and most wanted the second, but he was poised to choose the third.

His Inferno Ascension technique allowed him to also perform illusions, but they were external illusions, like the afterimage technique. It did not hinder the mind of the opponent, only their eyes.

This eye though, was basically on Itachi's level of illusion control because it forwent the other Sharingan powers and replaced it with only illusion power. You could imagine just how powerful it was from that alone.

Dante breathed out and made his decision! He spent 100 EC and took the Eye of Illusions, mostly because unlike the Eye of Soul, its strength was based on his Intelligence stat which he could grow. The Eye of Soul required him to grow his own soul strength, of which he had no means to.

The eye itself did not grow your soul power, only allowed you to use it. The best part was that the Eye of Illusions didn't work only on minds but souls too. So even mindless entities like undead or evil souls without physical form could be dragged into an illusion.

Once Dante made his choice, he felt a similar power descend upon him from the quantum world, only that this one was way stronger and more forceful. He immediately used his great control of his body to cut off his nervous system so that if there was any pain, he wouldn't feel it.

Dante was not a masochist, and he did not want to test his pain tolerance in this impromptu eye transplant. After all, everyone else here had virtual bodies so they could turn off sensory settings using their AI chips, but Dante could not use the same method since it was his real body overlaid over his virtual one.

Immediately, his eyes began to blur and darken as his sight disappeared, making Dante begin to lose his cool. It was something else to feel your sight suddenly disappear. Even if you were in a pitch-black room where you could not see your own hands, you would feel uneasy, much less this.

He tried to force himself to remain calm, but his heavy breathing betrayed him. Eventually, he felt a surge of something in his head that started from his eyes and coursed

  to his brain and then down to his body before going back to his eyes.

Despite having sensory feelings switched off, this strange sensation bypassed that limitation, which meant that it was not something physical that Dante could ignore at his current power. Luckily, whatever it was, it did not hurt.

When the sensation subsided, Dante felt his sight come back slowly, first going to complete white like he had been flashbanged before hints of color appeared. Then these colors flashed over and over as his eyes began to adjust the sensory information while his brain got used to processing this new very of information.

He ignored the prompt that appeared to tell him the transplant had been a success and focused on the reflective mirror that floated before him, provided by the game world so that he could inspect his new look.

After all, no matter what, after getting a new eye power, one would want to see how that eye power looked on them, whether it enhanced their looks and coolness or ended up reducing it instead.

Dante was no different as he glanced at himself with curiosity. When he usually looked into a mirror was what he saw was a brown-haired, brown-eyed young man with hopes and dreams, but what he saw now was a young man with brownish-red hair and glowing yellow eyes that were mesmerizing.
