As I finally returned back to my shitty apartment, I could only sigh in annoyance as I looked around my small apartment. Closing the door behind me, I went to my bathroom, and I started removing my clothes as I stared at myself in the mirror.
Unlike most Japanese boys, I had a decent physique with large shoulders and large arms; it wasn't anything exaggerated, but hopefully in some years I could reach my bulking potential. Other than that, most of my features were similar to most Japanese, like my dark brown hair and skin tone and lack of body hair.
Except for one thing, which is my pair of bright yellow eyes. My eyes are incredibly beautiful (at least that's what very few people tell me and maybe a little bit of self-glaze), but unfortunately for most of my life, people weren't able to appreciate the beauty of them and mocked me for it.
Not like it mattered; most of them would probably end up in worthless jobs because, unlike me, they don't have pretty privilege to help them.
My name is Akamatsu Haruto, and I'm a simple high school student and an orphan. I know I can't get more cliché than that.
Other than the fact that I wasn't normal by any means, after all, this is technically my second time in high school.
I had been reincarnated after my death. I don't even remember the cause of it, only that I died young, probably around my same age currently in my new life.
Well, it wasn't so bad after all; I had been reborn in the country of the Rising Sun. Also known as Kawaii Land, the country of Japan.
Well, it doesn't matter. I would enjoy my second life even if, after high school, I'm probably going to end up slaving for the rest of my life as a salary man.
I unfortunately did not have any person in my life that would support a NEET lifestyle for me, so unfortunately, I can't be a useless piece of shit to society.
[Chaos Gacha System online]
What the fuck is this? I thought as I looked at a glowing red screen that had appeared right in front of me.
Was I finally receiving my destined golden finger after all this time....
[x3 starter gold ticket are granted to the Host]
As I finish reading that 3 gold ticket fell on my face. As I grab them from my face I stared at the three pieces of golden paper. For some reason, I got the urge to just rip them. And so I did and when I did, that three pop-ups appeared.
[Perfection]
|Rare Ability|
Your abilities are proportionally increased depending on how strong you are, at 100% health all of your stats are increased by +100%, at 90% they are increased by +90% etc.
[Heaventaker]
|Rare Trait|
"You wake up, dreaming of a harem of... angel girls? That doesn't sound right-" Holy aligned/Angelic beings find themselves more attracted to you and it is easier to earn their affection.
[Polar Channel flow - Celluar Overdrive]
|Rare Skill|
You have mastered the Pugilist skill of pushing every single cell in your body to their absolute limits drawing up every ounce of energy they have to augment all of your stats to their limits. Using this skill places immense strain on the body and repeated use may cause permanent damage.
I could feel my body getting physically stronger as I obtained the knowledge on how to maximize the energy used in my body.
But that did give me pause for one specific reason. Why would my system give me superpowers if this was just a regular world?
But that brought a small realization that I probably was not living in a simple, generic, normal world; that freaked me out slightly, but I quickly composed myself as I decided to think about this logically.
Even if something crazy were happening in the world behind the scenes, it still would not have a negative effect on my life in any way or form, so worrying about it wouldn't change anything.
From what I know since, after all, I could've been reincarnated in the world of doom or solo leveling and have a bitch-ass invasion that I would have to deal with in the future.
Regardless, there was no point in bitching about it.
Besides, I have more important things to do today other than this new development; I have other shit to do today. After all, I had a shift in a couple hours.
I work part-time in a coffee shop mostly since my allowance only provided me the bare minimum, and if I wanted to spend money on something I personally wanted, I would have to gain it myself.
The coffee shop located close to a college is called Café Asai. The coffee shop manager was the owner, Asai Akihiko, who had thankfully hired me despite the fact it was actually against my school policy to have a part-time job like it normal in most schools in Japan.
Unfortunately, I couldn't take more hours than I wanted to, but at least I received some hours around the week.
For the next half an hour, I finish bathing and start changing to my working uniform.
-later-
The train ride to my job was horrible, but I had unfortunately had to tough it out. The walk, leaving the station, was unfortunately longer than I expected.
Thankfully, I managed to get there in time as I opened the front door just to get greeted and make my anxiousness evaporate.
"Akamatsu-san, good to see you make it on time," says a brunette girl, making me turn my head to see a short Japanese woman. She was wearing the same black uniform as I was wearing.
She was Asai Ami, the daughter of the owner and my fellow coworker. I shrugged off my jacket and hung it in the back. "Wouldn't want to keep you waiting, Asai-san."
She blinked, then looked away quickly. "R-right. Well, Hana's running late again, so you're on register until she gets here."
I nodded, tying my skirt's apron and putting it on my waist. For the next hour, I take orders from several people that entered ready to order.
As I finish giving a customer their food, the front door opens, and an extremely short girl enters. She has short white hair and bright blue eyes. Despite her short height, she has a voluptuous figure with a pair of large breasts that made the top of her uniform to strain the fabric.
"Sorry I'm late! The train was...wait, you're already here, Haruto-kun?!"
I could only snort at that.
Hana pouts, crossing her arms under her chest, her arm movements, making her breast bounce slightly drawing my eyes to them before my eyes quickly returned back to make eye contact with her. "Hey don't snore at me." She complained making me smirk slightly "You see brat i'll be here before you tomorrow".
"You say that every time," I replied, already turning back to the register. "And every time, you're wrong."
"That's because you always come an hour early who does that!" She stomped past me toward the back, grabbing her apron off the hook. "You'll see one day; I'll beat you here, and then I'll be the one making the smug comments."
"I'll be waiting with bated breath," I said mockingly.
We had what many people would describe as a small dumb rivalry when it came to this. I honestly didn't mind it; it made work feel less boring for me.
It's like in my old world where rappers and people on the Internet would create fake drama; this was just more for personal entertainment.
Some old piece of shit would probably respond to that by saying that we should be focusing on our jobs instead of joking around when there's no customers to that I say they could go eat a dick.
Ami let out a small laugh from behind the counter where she was restocking cups. "Hana, clock in so you can get started."
"Yeah, yeah, I know the drill." Hana disappeared into the back for a moment and then emerged, tying her waist apron. She slid behind the counter next to me, close enough that her shoulder brushed the side of my stomach. "So, anything interesting happen while I was gone?"
"The same as always, just a bunch of randoms and our regular," I said simply as I looked at the time on the only clock in the building.
After that, we both continued before more customers came and we had to actually do our jobs.
After a few hours I decided to take my lunch break. After eating the meal I have prepared for myself, I go back to work.
As I go back to work, I'm left alone to take orders. Hana went to take her lunch break, which means I'm manning the register and the coffee machine simultaneously. It's not ideal, but I've done it enough times that it's almost muscle memory now.
The afternoon rush trickles in and out. I'm wiping down the counter when the bell above the door chimes again.
"Welcome to Café Asai," I say automatically, not looking up from the rag in my hand. As I finished, I turned my head quickly to the new customer.
The customer in question was a girl; she was tall for a Japanese girl, with long blonde hair tied back in a practical ponytail. She was wearing what looked like a school uniform. This made me pause before realization hit my mind.
I played it cool, doubting she even knew who I was after I haven't seen this girl.
"Ah, excuse me. I'll have a black coffee, please. And... do you have any pastries that aren't too sweet?"
I nod, reaching for a cup. "We have a plain scone, not too sweet, but it's good with coffee."
Her face brightens slightly. "That sounds perfect. I'll take one."
I ring her up and give her a smile. "Enjoy your food."
She takes it, offering a warm smile. "Thank you. I think I'll sit for a while, if that's alright."
"Take your time."
She settles into a booth near the window as she starts eating her food. Eventually, she finished her food and left not before leaving a small tip.
My shift ended around 30 minutes later. After saying goodbye to my two coworkers, I walked back home.
Eventually, I reached my shitty apartment, opening the door slowly as I entered in and immediately sat down in my bed.
Throughout my work shift, I had felt a strange feeling at different moments, but now that I'm home, I can finally check out what that feeling was since I knew it was immediately connected to the chaos gacha.
Immediately a couple bronze-looking tickets appeared in my hand.
[Make Ami Asai feel arousal looking at you - reward 1x bronze ticket]
What the fuck? was my only thought as I read the description like this called "feat" as this ticket made me feel slightly uncomfortable.
Another Aika Kiryuu I suppose....
[Object Attraction]
|Trash Ability|
MHA - You can slowly draw small objects toward you, useful for when you don't want to get up from the bed to grab the remote.
Lifting my hand, I focus on a certain book in the floor, to my surprise, the book actually started flowing towards me slowly, but surely as I grabbed it.
Despite this being on trash tier I could probably eventually become a telekinetic.
That was like the reason why I was in trash since it was weak for now, but I could eventually improve it.
It wasn't saying that the ability was permanently dog shit, but that it was weaker compared to other skills in the Gacha.
Other than that, I was happy with this hopefully the next one was also good.
[Ami Asai gain attraction towards you - reward 1x bronze ticket]
Ok this was bullshit, but this was bullshit that I was willing to take since it would actually benefit me so I am glad for this development.
[Bloodlust]
|Uncommon Ability|
Cloak yourself in the aura of a killer, and your instincts are boosted, giving you a sixth, allowing you to know where to strike better, find out weak spots in your enemy, and anticipate their movements. In essence, this gives you the sense of a very experienced killer.
Now this could be useful if I ever got into a fight with anybody and I need to go for the kill I wouldn't need to hesitate by using this.
Hopefully this wouldn't make me into an fucking serial killer but considering the description, I doubted it.
[Hana Uzaki attraction towards you - reward 1x bronze ticket]
[Sprinkle]
|Common Ability|
Allows you to telekinetically control water to a minor degree, while it does not have enough power output to hurt someone, it can still be used to douse someone or remove moisture from inanimate objects etc.
Well, I'm too good looking. There's no surprise there but it at least gave me another skill, I can improve with time and effort and this one could synergize with [Object Attraction] and any other telekinetic skills I could get by the Gacha.
[unknowingly meeting with Miu Fūrinji - reward 1x bronze ticket]
[Pepsi Man]
|Trash Familiar|
Pepsi - Pepsi Man, gives Pepsi whenever he can! When summoned Pepsi arrives at your location through any means before delivering everyone in the location a fresh can of Pepsi before disappearing. 8-hour cooldown. Note: This familiar is not sponsored by the Pepsi Corporation.
Useful for a party and pretty much that's it I mean if I ever wanted Pepsi, I could get a larger amount by summoning him.
But that did make me think who was Miu Fūrinji?
Before I can think any further, the image of the blonde girl who had given me a tip entered my mind....
Was it her?
Regardless, this did make me curious on how my supposed system work.
[Gain Miu Fūrinji slight interest - reward 1x bronze ticket]
[Speckled Stoneplate Ring]
|Rare Item|
Dark Souls - Stoneplates, the symbol of a true knight, grant the strength to face various hardships. The precious rare speckled stoneplate grants a small boost to defense against all elemental effects.
"Yoooooooooooo" I yelled as I just pulled a fucking 'mythical pole' not exactly but goddamn was this not the best poll I have ever gotten.
If I ever met that blonde I would definitely have to thank her for this. I don't even care that this feat seems extremely weird but fuck it we ball.
But this was my last ticket, unfortunately and I wasn't going to give myself a fucking curse or anything to gain more.
My new rare item should stay in my "inventory" until I need it since after removing an item the chaos gacha won't allow me to put them back in in my "inventory" since it was only allowed to be removed once.
For now, I should probably get ready for bed since it was already getting late. I was feeling tired anyways, I had to get some rest as I had school tomorrow.
XxX
Old note: Holy shit I finish writing this at 6 in the fucking morning.
New note: now I woke up around 2 o'clock of the afternoon (my day off thankfully) will it matter once I upload it not really, but goddamn.
Other than that this is my attempt to use the chaos gacha since after this shit release so many of these dog shit chaos gacha fic started popping out left and right. Like majority of them are shit, unfortunately considering the chaos gacha it itself is well done (for the most part not counting the balancing).
On that I have to thank YiteWrite for his [The Chaotic One. (Jujutsu Kaisen Chaos Gacha)] good stuff. Reading it actually gave me the motivation to finish this chapter since I had it half done since I started writing this last year.
And no dxd rolls for this story, for a very simple reason, I don't wanna write about the MC is magically able to summon Albion. Other familiar for other franchises, though are fair game.
