20: Shop
You decided to dump everything to LUK.
Why?...Who knows why.
In any case, raising the stats of the others could be done through exercise and training. This is proven by the fact that not all stats had an equal amount.
Some might've been raised during your short training with your dad or the exercises you make in the morning. As for Luck...there's isn't any other visible way of raising it other than allocating it here.
After looking at your Status, you decided to visit the Shop.
"Shop"
Another blue window appeared in front of you with three options.
[BUY] [SELL] [GACHA] (I'm too lazy to make a table....XD)
Clicking at the [BUY] option, a list of items appeared before you with several tabs on the side.
There were three categories available. Items, Weapons, Equipment, and Character.
In the Items category, your eyes went wide as you looked at the items for sale. As for why...it's because the items listed in here are all items found in Anime! There's things like Devil Fruits...Dragon Ball...Damn, a single Dragon Ball costs 1 billion O-Points!?
Same with Weapons...heck, there's even Boosted Gear, Excalibur, Zanpakuto...and many more!
Equipment is also Anime based. Some are really just cosplay outfits but some are pretty good as it also has the same properties as the original. There's also Incursio from Akame ga Kill, Gundams, and other awesome armors. Yes, it seems Mechas are included as Equipment by the system...
As for the Character category...it seems to be where you can buy Character shards of various Anime Character. You still don't know what happens if you really do form a character. Will they appear with you in the real world? Or perhaps gain their abilities?
What's worth noting was that there are ranks for various Characters too. As an example...Saitama from OnePunch Man is ranked LR. Meaning, Legendary Rare. And to form him, you would need 1 million Saitama shards...
Below LR is UR (Ultra Rare). An example would be Accelerator from To Aru Majutsu no Index. After all, this is a guy who can control vectors, it's only normal for him to be ranked so high. Forming him would need 50000 Accelerator shards...
Next is the SSR (Super Super Rare). An example is Naruto from...well, Naruto. This is only his normal version without the Jinchuriki. There's another one of him with Jinchuriki ranked as UR. You deduced that you may upgrade it to a higher tier when conditions are met. Forming his SSR version needs 30000 Naruto shards.
Below that is SR (Super Rare). An example would be Abarai Renji (Bankai) from Bleach. He has a downgraded version as an R (Rare) rank. Forming his SR version needs 20000 Renji shards while forming his R version needs 10000 Renji shards.
Below R (Rare) is UC (Uncommon). These are the characters who have a bit more power or special ability than normal people but not significant enough. They can be formed with 1000 shards. The lowest C (Common) are just normal people without any special abilities. They can be formed with 500 shards.
Looking back at the other categories, it isn't just the Characters that are ranked. Even the Items, Weapons, and Equipment are also ranked the same way.
After calming down for a few minutes, you weren't in a hurry to continue exploring it to buy something. Instead, you looked at the [SELL] option.
This was pretty much just converting stuff to O-Points. You tested on converting normal objects to O-Points but it didn't work. It seems that it would only work for items gained from the System as a way of recycling.
Finally, there's the [Gacha] option.
Like most Gacha systems in the game, there are two options. Roll the Gacha once, or 10 times with a guaranteed SR and above. The Gacha roulette shows different categories. Item, Weapon, Equipment, Character...and Blank.
It's arranged in a way that the Blanks are in between the other categories and it also takes a larger space than the others. The smalled out of every category was the Character.
One roll costs 100 O-Points but it seems the first try is free. Not only that, but it's also a guaranteed SR and above for the first try.
It seems it was time to put your Luck to the test! Will 10 LUK be enough to roll for a good result?
Gritting your teeth, you pushed the roll button and the display started rolling. The Blanks disappeared since you are guaranteed to have a result.
The roll lasted for only a few seconds but to you, it felt like forever!
Finally, the roulette stopped and the arrow pointed at the...Character!
A silhouette of a character then formed in the middle which gradually gained color. Once revealed, it displayed the name below and the rank.
[SR - Child Emperor]!
This...isn't this the kid genius from One Punch Man!?
Before you could even react, Child Emperor looked at you then suddenly, his body turned to smoke which then entered you.
Instantly, your mind and Child Emperor's mind seemed to have melded. You knew everything that he knows...and you can do everything that he can do...
All the blueprints of the gadgets that he can make appeared in your mind. At that moment, you only had one thought in your mind...Damn!
Having felt what a Character could do, you wanted more! No wonder the costs for a character is too high! just 1 shard of an R Character is already 100 O-Points!
Thinking about O-Points, your head hurt seeing the measly 300 O-Points in your status.
After thinking for a bit, you remembered that you had completed a Side Quest so you should be able to pick a new one now.
The Playboy Side Quest has already been replaced but you ignored it temporarily. You looked at the Bully Side Quest and you can see the counter already completed. All you need to do is accept it then you can get the rewards instantly.
Sure enough, after completing the quest, you gained 100 EXP and 500 O-Points. You are now halfway to Level 3 and with 800 O-Points. Still missing 2 to do a 10 roll for a guaranteed SR or above.
Since that was the case, you looked at the Side Quest one more time to see if there's anything you can accept.
"Quest."
| QUEST | ||
| [MAIN QUEST] <CHAIN QUEST> I am Number 1! (0/10) - Become the Top Student in Grade 1. (0/1) | ||
| [SIDE QUEST] Tech Geek - Create 5 different gadgets. (0/5) | Accept | Reject |
| [SIDE QUEST] Vigilante - Beat up 10 bad guys secretly. (0/10) | Accept | Reject |
| [SIDE QUEST] Pet Lover - Gain at least 10 pets. (0/10) | Accept | Reject |
RESULT OF VOTES:
Tech Geek - 16
Vigilante - 1
Pet Lover - 6
Ignore a Quest - 0
Well, if "The Legendary Mechanic" taught me anything, it's that gadgets can be anything from a retractable blade to a miniature nuke and then sold as innovations... which means, Funds for more gadgets!
based on how his parents were portayed so far, i would wager they would even support him in this endeavor, making this side quest so much easier.
To think there's another reader of the Great Han Xiao XD.
Why accept quests at all then?
Man author u don't want to Summon characters do u Saitama from OnePunch Man is ranked LR. Meaning, Legendary Rare. And to form him, you would need 1 million Saitama shards...
He needs an Excalibur.
Please don't include character summoning as servant or companion since it'll absolutely ruin the story,
also no multiverse with other system user transmigrator as well since most novel with those tag is completely garbage due to rinse repeat of the plot story.
Though it might be interesting to have strong love interest since constant use of damsel in distress with mc save the Day will ruin the novel as well.
I am not really happy how the last vote turned out but the explanation at the beginning of the chapter made sense, I just hope the effect of luck remains subtle.
For Q it no longer really matters which he accepts since apparently the others still count even if he has them on standby. This means he should just select pet lover, buy 10 tamagotchis and then select tech geek making use of his newly gotten child emperor. I hope those chars don't effect his personality, I don't want him ruing around with lollies now.
As for stuff to buy, they would all be way too expensive like the wish granting card Ikaros has with her at the beginning of the story. Weapons aren't needed either, a batch of nanomachines that simply breaks done matter and recombine it according to his blueprints would be nice but no clue if that appears in any anime since I hardly watch/read sci-if stuff.
Edit: Ed's ability to manipulate matter would be great to have (Fullmetal Alchemist)
btw Break for the shop, if you think it's too complicated to use or list each item each time, you could implement a simple daily rotation system. Since Rei won't check the shop each day, you could say that there are 5 items of each type randomized every day. Thus you don't have to choose from a list of hundreds of Anime each time, limiting the choices would allow a simple vote.
