[Sweat
Trash Ability
Allows you to sweat on command, either stopping sweating or sweating to supernatural levels to cool your body down.]
[Krav Maga
Uncommon Skill

Krav Maga incorporates techniques from boxing, wrestling, judo, and street fighting. With sufficient mastery, you can enhance your strikes with your internal energy]
[Novice Communication
Common Skill
Communication is the ability to better understand what others mean and how fo convey your thoughts effectively. At a novice level, you may not be that much better than the regular person, but at least you know how to properly communicate with people, which is a strangely rare skill these days.]
[Dimensional Courier
Uncommon Item
A phone with a singular phone number dialled into it. By dialling the number and calling, you can contact the Dimensional Courier. The Courier can buy anything in your stead from anywhere you have been to, and it is something that can be bought by a civilian with money, even across realities and dimensions. The courier will come with you to deliver your delivery within 8 hours at most. But they will take 10% commission for whatever you buy.]
[Dimensional Walker
Legendary Ability
It turns you into a walker between dimensions. Every 1 month you will be forcibly transported to another dimension (the same one each time) and you can only return after completing a mission. In case of death in either dimension, you will be teleported to the other dimension, with a one-month recovery period.]
[Dehydration

[Lube Dispension
Common Ability
Allows you to dispense water-based lube safe for personal use from your body, either making your body slick at will, releasing it from any point in your body like a dispenser or shooting it out like a low-power hose.]
Yuuji looked at his rewards for a while, rereading each one at least twice before finally speaking.
"I have a lot to say."
[Go ahead]
"Sweat is useful, no more sweating; Krav Maga could be useful in certain situations if I use it together with the Feng Shui Engine; Shadow Cloak might help me go unnoticed in specific situations; and Dehydration could be useful someday, let's give it the benefit of the doubt.
However, what about the rest? I can't think of any non perverted uses for Lube Dispension, and Novice Communication was already included in Master Management, but most importantly, why the hell is there a legendary level skill, and such an annoying one at that, in the rewards from my bronze tickets?
And don't expect me to assume it's a coincidence. The Dimensional Courier skill is clearly meant to be used together with it.
Ugh, that's all."
Yuuji exhaled after voicing all his complaints in one breath.
[As I said before, the rewards are completely random and I can't do anything about your complaints.
As for the legendary skill, I already explained it to you before.]
"Did you?"
[I did.]
"Then explain it again" Yuuji said, not remembering what the system was talking about.
[All rewards have ranks, whether they are abilities, items, or skills.]
[And there are 8 types of tickets. From lowest to highest they are: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Platinum, Legendary, Mythical, and Divine.]
[However, tickets are not guaranteed rewards, they are probabilities. A bronze ticket has an 80% chance of granting a trash or common reward, while the other 20% is divided among the higher ranks, the further the rank, the lower the probability.
For example, these are the chances for a bronze ticket:
Trash: 40 %
Common: 40 %
Uncommon: 15 %
Rare: 3 %
Elite: 1 %
Epic: 0.5 %
Legendary: 0.3 %
Mythical: 0.1 %
Divine: 0.08 %
Transcendent: 0.02 %
So, even though the probabilities are small, they still exist, and the current situation is not that far fetched.
As for Dimensional Courier, I can only say that you're lucky.]
"Putting aside that explanation I don't remember you giving me before.
I'm in a world where I don't have to try too hard to get stronger because it's relatively safe, and now it turns out I'm going to be forcibly sent from time to time to some unknown world where I'll definitely have to complete missions if I want to come back.
Obviously it's rigged" Yuuji complained.
[Even though no one rigged anything, chaos might have interfered to make things more interesting.]
"Yeah, yeah, blame it on chaos again" Yuuji said, not believing a word.
In the end, he could only accept the result and hope he wouldn't appear in a dangerous dimension. After being taken to another world once, a second time no longer sounded that impressive.
"Whatever, I guess I'll watch some anime to relax and forget about everything."
[…host, what about the Financial Route Mission?]
"Do you know where Lala lives?"
[No.]
"Neither do I. We can only wait until Monday to talk about the AI."
[Even without the AI, you can handle the rest and…]
"Shh. system, you're not letting me hear the anime."
[Host, you don't have to be so childish. I didn't manipulate the rewards.]
"Of course I believe you, I just don't know where Lala lives" Yuuji said with a smile.
Puff!
"Yuuji!"
A female voice sounded right above him, making Yuuji immediately exclaim. 'I hate Murphy's Law'
When he looked up, with a cartoonish puff and a cloud of smoke that quickly vanished, a completely naked girl appeared falling right on top of him.
Yuuji moved quickly and caught her before she hit the ground. He didn't think she would be badly hurt, but she had appeared quite high up, about ten meters, since Yuuji's room was unusually tall.
"Are you okay?"
"Of course, I knew you would catch me, hehe" Lala laughed with a confident look on her face.
'Does she trust me too much?' Yuuji wondered where that confidence came from when they barely knew each other, but he did not think too deeply about it.
"Miss Lala, you're naked, allow me to dress you."
Next to Lala, a small floating white doll like creature appeared.
It transformed into light and merged with Lala, dressing her in ordinary clothes, a loose blouse, a skirt, and brown boots.
By the time Lala finished transforming, she noticed Yuuji staring at her.
"Is something wrong?" she asked, confused.
"Can you get me one of those? They look very useful. Of course, I'll pay you."
"You want a Peke?" Lala said in surprise. "It's not impossible, mmmm, but I need a special mineral that only my father has access to in the galaxy, along with an AI system."
"Impossible! I am unique in the galaxy."
The sudden voice that came from the brooch in Lala's hair startled Yuuji.
"So it can talk even in that form?" Yuuji said, surprised in a bad way. "Can you remove that part in mine?"
He already had one annoying voice in his head, there was no need for two.
[…]
"What do you mean, Mr. Yuuji? Even though I respect you so much…"
Peke's voice sounded again, exaggeratedly disappointed.
"Peke, it's not about you. I just feel like it would be annoying to hear a voice in my head all the time" Yuuji apologized to the small brooch shaped robot.
"Very well, for the sake of your friendship with Miss Lala, I will forgive you."
Peke's voice sounded like a child pretending to be mature, which made Yuuji laugh a little.
"You're funny."
"Of course, I made him" Lala said proudly.
"You're amazing too. By the way, what are you doing here?" Yuuji asked.
"I came because of your AI, of course. Didn't you say yesterday that you needed it for today?"
"Did I?" Yuuji wondered, not remembering saying that.
"You didn't finish saying it, but I analyzed what you were trying to express and told Miss Lala" Peke explained.
"Oh! Peke, you're amazing" Yuuji thanked him. 'Meanwhile, my own system wants to send me to another dangerous dimension' he also sighed in his mind.
"Of course" Peke said proudly, matching Lala's personality.
'It seems she copied that part of her personality and put it into Peke' Yuuji thought while looking at Lala.
"So, do you have the AI?" Yuuji changed the subject, returning to the main issue.
"Of course! Here."
Lala took out a USB from her pocket and handed it to Yuuji, who extended his hand and took it.
However, as soon as he held it in his hand, before Lala let go of it.
Boom!
An explosion sounded near them, making both of them turn to look.
Yuuji opened his eyes in surprise, because not only had something nearby exploded violently, he was directly in an unknown place, in the middle of destroyed terrain with traces of explosions and the smell of blood everywhere.
"Where am I?" he wondered, confused.
