"Wait!" Allen shouted as he saw the Amazons ready to fight. "Can we take a moment before beheading people? Just saying, a little bit of love wouldn't hurt."
"Everything a man says can only be a lie!" The leader had no intention of listening to Allen and unsheathed her sword. "Especially when that man wants to be funny!"
"Hey, that's rude! I don't call you gorilla, big sister, your arm is bigger than my head," Allen mocked, extending his arms in offense. "Yes, I know your first reaction is to kill me in a grotesque way, but we are civilized people, we can talk... right?"
The women remained silent, they had never met a man like this. However, even though Allen showed no hostility, nothing in this world would make the Amazons lower their guard with a man.
"Catch him!" one of them shouted, and they all rushed toward Allen.
...
Allen ran through the forest as arrows fell around him.
"Hey, it's not very friendly to stab people. I was planning to promote these islands as a tourist destination, but now forget it!" Allen complained as the Amazons yelled behind him.
"I hope you can joke with a sword at your throat!" an Amazon shouted with amusement. There was something odd about Allen that prevented them from seeing him as an enemy.
"Sorry, I'm allergic to being stabbed," Allen laughed as he caught a spear coming towards him and broke it in half. 'Well, this went to hell very quickly. Maybe the only way to stay in this place without them wanting to cut off my testicles is with Queen Hippolyta's approval...'
[Host, that seems more difficult than convincing the rest of the Amazons.]
"Don't worry, I have a plan!" Allen put on sunglasses while activating Bullet Time and disappeared. Only Diana had the ability to follow him, but she stayed behind the others. Even knowing the rules of the Amazons, Diana couldn't see Allen as an enemy.
"He disappeared!" an Amazon shouted up ahead.
"This is bad... we need to inform the queen!" The leader looked at everyone, and her eyes stopped at Diana. "Princess, remember the price your mother paid for trusting a man."
Diana's complexion turned pale, and she clenched her lips. "...yes."
Amazons who had known men were very aware of what happened to Diana. They could only sigh. Some were annoyed with her for being so soft on Allen, but being the princess, they didn't reproach her.
Allen entered Themyscira, and with his speed, it was easy to hide from the warriors. Also, no matter how developed their instincts were, it would be difficult for them to detect Allen, who had no intention of hurting them.
...
In a grand marble palace sat Queen Hippolyta, a young and beautiful woman with long golden hair and the same blue eyes as Diana. She sat dressed in armor and a noble mantle, but with her sword on her back, she seemed ready for war at any moment.
Hippolyta grabbed the wine cup on her side and shattered it. She was in a bad mood; the goddess Artemis brought her terrible news.
"That bastard Ares..."
In Marvel, there is also a Hercules and an Ares, but compared to Marvel's, DC's are more despicable.
Hippolyta still remembered the feeling of having a chain around her neck, the sensation of mud, and the smell of pigs when Hercules captured her and threw her to the ground while all the Amazons were caged.
– "Your sisters will be for my men when they arrive!" –
Hippolyta clenched her teeth almost to breaking point as she leaned on her throne. At that moment, she degraded herself to pretend to seduce him, and when Hercules was distracted, she used the chain that held her to break his neck.
Hippolyta swore to herself never to trust a man again, and that's why the Amazons didn't interact with the human world again.
"That day Ares fled, and Hercules died... but like any god, he's not so easy to kill."
Hippolyta learned that Ares was able to revive Hercules. This news was a very cruel blow to the queen, who, despite the long time that had passed, still hated him as if it had been yesterday.
...
Allen saw the grand palace and entered discreetly. He decided to use an artifact from the store.
[Invisibility Cloak – Green: This cloak is an imitation of the Deathly Hallows from the world of Harry Potter – It has only five uses and cannot hide your presence.]
Now, if he were looking for the queen, the throne room should be the first stop.
Allen felt that something was wrong; there were no guards at the entrance or anyone in the throne room except Queen Hippolyta, who sat in silence. Allen stared at the beautiful woman for a moment, trying to figure out what kind of Amazon queen she was. Was she wild? Was she kind? Was she reasonable, or a battle maniac?
With so many different DC worlds, a person's origin tends to have variables. For example, in some lands, Diana was the biological daughter of Hippolyta, and in others, she was created from clay. In some worlds, Hippolyta could be blonde, but she could also have black hair.
One thing was certain to not deviate from Allen's story, the Hippolyta he knew was much more beautiful than he remembered from the comic's versions.
'Sometimes I think someone is playing a joke on me or something...' Allen thought, feeling that Queen Hippolyta shouldn't look so good, moreover, he has not yet seen her body in those thick clothes, but Allen could speculate from the curves that the queen was very well-endowed.
"Who is it?!"
Hippolyta immediately stood up and drew her sword; she managed to sense Allen, although it's not like he thought of hiding in the first place.
[Host, what do you plan to do?]
"Before I reveal myself, I would like to say that I am a man but not your enemy, and I seek an audience, Your Majesty," Allen tried to be as polite as possible with his future mother-in-law.
Hippolyta frowned angrily. "How dare you ask for an audience after entering Themyscira without permission and reaching my presence uninvited!"
"I didn't intend to come to Themyscira; I arrived by accident. When I tried to leave, your daughter captured me. I thought I would come as a prisoner, but more Amazons appeared and tried to kill me, so I fled and I came here."
Hippolyta was a queen, and as such, she wasn't emotional when dealing with things. While her desire to kill Allen for being there was clear, she also needed to analyze everything calmly.
"First, prove your sincerity and reveal yourself," the queen demanded.
"What guarantee do I have that you won't attack me the moment I appear?"
"None!" Hippolyta struck the ground with her sword. "That's why it's a test of sincerity."
Allen sighed; there were other ways to achieve his goals, such as using the neuralyzer on Hippolyta or defeating her, but he simply didn't feel like it. Allen came to clear his mind, not to create more problems. Just in case, Allen prepared to activate the Infinite.
"Your Majesty, my name is Allen Walker." Allen revealed himself, putting the invisibility cloak into his inventory. Hippolyta remained silent as she observed him. After a moment, she sheathed her sword and sat on her throne.
"You're not a god, not even a demigod. What is a human boy doing on Paradise Islands?" Hippolyta sat regally and nobly as a queen and unexpectedly did not attack Allen.
"In fact, I hoped you would try to kill me..." Allen smiled ironically. "I arrived here by accident, through a magical portal, so to speak."
"I see. You arrived by accident..." Hippolyta kept her eyes on Allen to see if he lied. After confirming it was true, she smiled. "On the other hand, I'm not surprised they tried to kill you. Every Amazon has the order to capture or kill any men who set foot on this land. It has been so for centuries, due to my order."
Allen felt scrutinized by Hippolyta. She appeared calm, but the moment he showed any suspicious movement, she would attack.
"I see..." Allen sighed. 'It seems that this Hippolyta is one of the strong versions...'
In both DCAU and DCEU, Hippolyta doesn't seem too strong. However, in the comics, her story is well-explained. She is the daughter of Ares, the god she swore to kill. Consequently, she is also a demigoddess. She has superhuman speed, strength, invulnerability to bullets and conventional weapons, and she is immortal, having stopped aging when she reached adulthood, which is why she looks young to Allen.
"Queen, I would like your daughters to stop trying to kill me every time they see me. Is that possible?" Allen asked courteously.
"No," Hippolyta replied sharply.
"..." Deep down, he already knew the answer, so he didn't show surprise.
"I don't need the Lasso of Truth to know that you have no ill intentions." Hippolyta closed her eyes, and her gaze became calmer. "Over the centuries, I've learned not to be deceived again. The rule is absolute; if we make an exception today, we could pay for it dearly tomorrow." She opened her eyes and fixed them on Allen.
Allen prepared to fight against the demigoddess Hippolyta; however, the next words took the young white-haired man by surprise.
"Due to my position, I can't go around chasing every intruder entering Themyscira. So, wait patiently until my guards arrest you..."
The queen finished speaking and remained silent with a calm look while her eyes were fixed on him. Allen coughed uncomfortably and put on the invisibility cloak to leave the palace.
...
Hippolyta watched Allen disappear without intending to pursue him. It's not that she was a good person; the male offspring of the Amazons ended miserably. She is the kind of woman who has beheaded intruders without hesitation. So why did she let Allen go?
There are two reasons. The first is simple: Allen has been the least unpleasant man Hippolyta has encountered. There was no desire for her or her body outside of sincere admiration for her beauty. She didn't feel the slightest intention of harming him.
However, after having a positive assessment of Allen's personality and nature, the second reason why she did nothing against him came.
On the throne, the calm face of Queen Hippolyta disappeared and was replaced by a dark look with a drop of sweat running down her cheek.
"What is that man?" the woman said with a serious tone. The queen was an experienced warrior who was not afraid of death, but when she tried to kill Allen, she felt a terrible chill. ...
Allen left the place while sighing. It's annoying to have to choose which power to use at what moment. It's like a strategy game that keeps him alert at all times, even with the cooldown reduction. Using the Infinite, Allen would have to wait two days to use it again.
You're probably wondering why Allen hasn't touched on the topic of his gains from everything that happened with Loki and his little adventure in the world.
It's true that all the events of Loki and his intoxicated adventure brought incredible gains. Not only about three million credits but also more than a thousand golden tickets.
Allen hadn't felt the need to use them until now, but when deciding to come to DC comics, while Allen watched the recording, he ordered the system to use a thousand tickets in the gacha. With the improved system, the gacha now has a small chance of crimson chests appearing in normal rolls.
Allen pulled the gacha a thousand times...
Ignoring the other chests, he got 14 crimson chests. The percentage of crimson chests was still very low. However, Allen wasn't disappointed and used the rest of the fragments on iridescent tickets and got five more crimson chests and incredibly three iridescent chests!
We must remember that Allen obtained the power of a destruction god in one of those iridescent chests! However, there is a harsh reality in all this; Allen improved the system but has not improved himself.
This caused him a small problem: he is close to the limit of abilities and powers that his body can withstand.
Speaking in percentages, sixty percent is occupied by the power of a destruction god, ten percent is taken up by the Sukuna set of skills, and similarly, the Gojo set takes up ten percent. Another fifteen percent is in his remaining abilities, leaving only five percent for the rest.
An important detail is that one should not judge the potential of an ability based on its current classification, and that is due to the restrictions they have. For example, Kizaru's speed, which Allen has, is restricted to only a tenth of the speed of light, so it is not a crimson-level ability. The same goes for Shanks' Haki, as it is uncontrollable at one hundred percent, placing it at a purple level. Both could be crimson-level, but due to restrictions or usage conditions, they are lower in classification.
Allen sighed upon realizing this fact, if he had known, he would not have used the fragments on the gold tickets, but on his own body. Allen is like an RPG character who has two legendary swords but can only equip one at a time.
But not everything is bad; the system gave Allen the option to rotate abilities. This means that the system deactivates abilities in use so that he can use other abilities. This is fine and easy for green and blue abilities, but it's not as simple with higher-level abilities because they are assimilated more deeply by him.
A simple explanation would be that removing a green-level ability is like removing an accessory, a blue-level one is like removing a piercing, a purple-level one is like extracting a tooth, crimson is equivalent to losing a limb, and Iridescent abilities are part of Allen's soul.
Of course, deactivating abilities doesn't cause him pain, but there is also a cooldown time. The system says that the power Beerus taught him to control would take a month to be usable again if he deactivates it, and that's with the current system level. Before, he would have needed an entire year to recover it.
There is another thing that prevents Allen from changing abilities, and it's the respect for the powers he trained and the masters he had. With the exception of Sukuna, Allen respects Beerus and Satoru Gojo. Treating what they taught him as disposable is out of the question.
So now, Allen is stuck with the powers he already has until he gathers enough fragments for himself.
...
While Allen pondered things like that, someone had their eyes on him.
