Capítulo 69: Lottery
He then took out the ticket and once again checked it out.
<< Golden Lottery Ticket
A ticket that is given by the System for extraordinary feats and can be used to get one random item from the Golden Lottery Pool.
Hold it in your hand and inject some mana into it to activate it.

*Hm, I don't know what the Golden Lottery Pool is, but it's quite likely that the reward will be something great.*
He then slowly urged some mana into the ticket and soon a rune circle emerged from it. This rune circle shimmered in a golden light and in the center of it there were pictures which slowly changed.
*These must be the items I can get from the lottery.*, Ivan thought, while he watched the pictures changing constantly. There were books, pills, weapons and sometimes even creatures to be seen.
*Wow, it seems like one can get just about anything from this lottery. I wonder if there is a way to get more of these tickets.* It didn't even have to be golden tickets, he would be satisfied with any kind of ticket. Because he was sure that there were different tiers of tickets and that golden wasn't the highest, but neither the lowest.
He wasn't sure what he would prefer as the item he got from the lottery. After all, all of these item types could help him. As he had realized during his fight with the Murderous Treant, he was in need of a better weapon, so a sword or something similar would be great. On the other hand, he would love to have some more skills too. Pills didn't even needed to be mentioned, since he was sure that they should be ones with great effects. After all the ones in the honor shop were already great and in his opinion the ones from the lottery should be much better.
The thing he was the least excited about were the creatures that were displayed. Even though he was sure that they would be strong and useful, he felt that they wouldn't help to increase his power directly. He wasn't sure why, but he had an instinctive rejection towards external power. And even if they were bound to him through a contract, to him they were still an external source of power.
Weapon were the same, but unlike slaves they were necessary to display the real power of oneself, so there wasn't as much rejection towards them inside his mind.
Finally after a lot of different pictures had been shown inside the rune circle it stopped and the circle lit up with a blinding golden light.
Ivan hastily shut his eyes, because of fear of being blinded by the light. When he opened his eyes again, the rune circle had vanished, leaving behind a dark green book levitating in the air, where it was before.
Not being able to wait Ivan stretched out his hand and grabbed the book, instantly using his mana to activate it. Then the information inside the book streamed into his brain and he was able to check out the skill he had gotten.
<< Skill Dark Dual Cultivation (Artifact)
Type: Passive

During forced sexual intercourse you can gain benefits depending on the strength of your partner, the bloodline of your partner and the physical and mental pain of your partner.
Remark: Can be combined with the Evil Dark Master skill for better effects.
Comment: Is this fitting or what? Now you can be even more evil than before.

"What the??", Ivan couldn't help but exclaim when he read the description of his new skill. The thing that he was most annoyed with wasn't the skill itself but that there was no description of the benefits he could gain. It took him a bit to realize that this was an uncommon reaction. He was sure that his mentor, his friends and his family would at first react to the forced sexual intercourse part, since this was just another way to say rape, which was something all of them abhorred.
*Why don't I seem to have a problem with this? Why was my first thought about what benefits I could gain? *, these questions now popped up inside his brain.
He had never thought about his feelings towards others actions, but now he couldn't help but contemplate about them.
It didn't take him long to realize that he didn't care even the slightest bit about others, that he didn't know. There he was different from the others. They did care about others, even if they didn't know them. One just had to think back towards that time when they stood before a news stand and had seen a report about someone being robbed and then bloodily murdered. Greg and Serge who where there with him not only expressed their anger about someone doing something like this. No, one could see in their eyes that they really were angry about what happened.
He on the other hand had expressed his anger too, but it was just following along. In reality he hadn't felt anything at all.
* Then whom do I care about? *
Asking himself this question he sank deep into thought and only after a few hours did he come to an conclusion.
*It seems like I care only about three groups of people. These that are of my blood, like Jane, these that I see as my friends and finally these that I see as mine. *
The thing that surprised him a bit was that, when he created these groups he found out that he had sorted Vlada as well as Lara into the group of people that he considered his. For him family seemed to be intrinsically linked to blood and since Jane didn't have his blood in her, he was unable to consider her his family.
*Why am I like this? Am I a psychopath?*, during the time he had to recuperate, from using his mana, he had read all kind of books in the library and he had stumbled over this expression and which seemed to describe a mental illness.
*Shouldn't be. After all I still care about a lot of people. Whatever, I don't think I should care about it to much. But in order to life in this society, I think I have to create some rules on how to act towards strangers.*
