So, I died by getting hit by a truck, and now I'm floating in space, surrounded by darkness. Honestly, it gets boring after a while. I don't even know how long it has been. Time doesn't seem to flow here. It could have been weeks, months, or even centuries, and I wouldn't know.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and the next moment, I opened my eyes. I was lying in a bed—no, a hospital bed. A woman was sitting next to me. She had long black hair and a pale, delicate face. I was confused for a moment, but then a sharp pain shot through my head. Memories of this body started flooding my mind.
After a few minutes, the pain subsided. Now I understood who I was. I am Emiya Stark, the son of Lisa Stark and Jace Stark. And guess what? I'm in the DC Universe! A brick hit my head while I was running from Firefly, a villain from Batman's rogues' gallery. That's how I ended up here—I've transmigrated into DC.
"You're awake! Thank God," the woman said with a smile on her face. "I was so worried that you'd never wake up!" She hugged me tightly.
"Yes, mother, I'm awake. Can you stop hugging me now?"
"Oh, sorry! You've been asleep for two days, and I was so worried. I'll go and bring the doctor to check on you, okay?"
"Yes, mother. Okay," I replied, still trying to sort out my thoughts.
As soon as she left the room, I did what any standard isekai protagonist does—I said the magical word:
"System."
A blue, game-like screen appeared in front of me.

[Reward: Tony Stark (MCU version)]
Yes! This is amazing! Iron Man is one of the smartest minds in all of fiction. He created time travel, designed the Iron Man suits, and even built Ultron—though I'm definitely not recreating Ultron for obvious reasons.
At that moment, my mother returned with the doctor. After a quick check-up, we were given the all-clear, and I went home with her.
"Are you feeling okay?" my mother asked with concern as we walked inside.
"I'm fine," I replied, offering a small smile to reassure her. Once inside, I headed straight to my room.
I stood in front of the mirror, taking in my reflection. I was 16 years old, with an average build, standing about 5'7"—a little short, but what could I do about it now?
The weight of my new reality started to settle in. I was stuck in a world filled with gods and demons, where battles could level cities and lives could end in an instant. This wasn't just a comic book anymore.
The thought hit me like a brick: I could die tomorrow.
[Would you like to assimilate Tony Stark's intelligence?]
[YES] [NO]
"Absolutely, yes!" I muttered, and the moment I selected it, a wave of energy surged through me.
My head started spinning, but this time, it wasn't like before. Instead of pain, I felt like information was being downloaded into my brain. Concepts I didn't fully understand before—quantum physics, nanotechnology, engineering—were now crystal clear. I could visualize blueprints for the Iron Man suits, arc reactor designs, and even a framework for AI systems.
"This… this is incredible!" I whispered, clutching my head as the information settled. I now had the mind of Tony Stark, and with it, the potential to create wonders—or disasters, if I wasn't careful.
"I need to plan carefully," I told myself, realizing the responsibility of wielding such intelligence. My first step? Finding resources to start building. I was in the DC Universe now, which meant the rules of reality might be different. Could I outsmart both heroes and villains here?
One thing was clear—I needed to test my newfound abilities and figure out where I stood in this new world.
