章 2: C2 - Welcome to Sakurasou
[Quest Completed!]
[Quest: Figure out why your new home looks familiar.
Rewards: Inventory unlocked, [Arc Of Embodiment] Skill]
As soon as saw that notification I started feeling incredible warmth throughout my whole body and I saw faint white lines on my hands while taking my suitcase and bag from the back. It felt incredible, like I could do anything. Thankfully the white lines and the warmth soon subsided, that could become addicting. I can only be thankful I was wearing a hoodie. I can't imagine what my arms must have looked like.
[Notice!]
[Magic Circuits added to "Status".
User currently has 20 Magic Circuits]
Well that answers the question what those white lines were, and I seem to have the average of 20 Magic Circuits. I hope there's a way to get more of them.
"Come inside, I'll explain some basic rules"
Chihiro said while walking inside. I hurriedly followed her inside. Even though the outside of the house looks a bit worn down the inside is extremely tidy and neat. Which is a surprise considering the tenants here.
"First of all, curfew starts at 23:00 (11:00pm), so be inside before that and try keep quiet. Second if you want food make your own or go to the store, there is box in the fridge and a cabinet labeled "101" which is for you. Your room will also be 101, first room upstairs. There is also a shower & bath upstairs for males"
Chihiro started listing seriously. I of course being the responsible adult I am listened half-heartedly and started staring into space while thinking:
'Since took room "101" Sorata Kanda is most likely not here. Which I'm extremely glad for since now he doesn't have the chance to ruin Mashiro's future with his moody assholeness and childish outbursts. I wonder if I am going to have to go pick her up if Sorata isn't here. I hope we could collaborate creating her manga, that could be fun.'
*thud*
A chop suddenly landed on my head and I looked up seeing Chihiro looking at me slightly annoyed.
"Are you listening?"
She said with a spine chilling smile on her face.
"Of course Chihiro-san. Curfew 23:00, Room 101"
I nodded my head and replied to her.
"Good, there is currently 2 girls + me and 3 boys living here including you. I'll introduce them tomorrow after school. You will most likely meet some of them in the morning"
Chihiro said while she started walking towards her room.
"Go setup your room and head to bed while you're at it. If you want breakfast tomorrow you can use the ingredients that aren't labeled, there should be plenty for breakfast. School starts tomorrow at 8:30 so make sure to wake up early so you are not late for the entrance ceremony"
She managed to say before closing the door to her room not waiting for an answer.
I looked a bit dumbfounded by her lack of caring, but I suppose that's just her character. I do remember her being in her 30's and not having a husband which is really pressuring her.
I decided not to think about it too much and walked upstairs towards my room. Opening the door and walking in, I was once again pleasantly surprised how clean it was. One person bed on the left side next to the wall, 2 doored closet behind it and a small table for 4 in the middle of the room. Quite homie though a bit too small for my taste, but as they say "beggars can't be choosers".
I took my hoodie off and started unpacking my suitcase and bag, clothes and uniform to the closet and some of my school books from the bag to the table.
*growl*
I forgot I haven't eaten since getting on the train and that was 5 hours ago. I suppose it's time to test out [Arc Of Embodiment] and see if there is any limitations to it.
I sat ground next to my table. I closed my eyes and pointed my hand towards the table and started imagining a sandwich, I started feeling my Magic Circuits activating which felt a bit painful at first but after a few seconds the pain disappeared, I opened my eyes and saw a plain cheese & tomato sandwich in the table.
I showed a small smile and started eating the sandwich, which overall tasted the way it should but it lacked something, I can't put my finger on it but it is definitely missing something, I suppose magic can't replicate food to the fullest.
While eating I started thinking what to do next, I realized now would be a good time to open my Gacha Tickets. I thought "Gacha" in my head.
[Welcome to Gacha!]
[User can receive anything from Skills, Items to Manga Scripts. Almost anything is on the table]
[Number of Tickets: 3]
Well that's extremely vague, I would pray to Mistress Luck but as the quote goes "..I believe luck is a concept created by the weak to explain their failures"
[3 Gacha Tickets Used]

[Notice!]
[User has recieved:
Photographic Memory,
Cooking Mastery,
Nero "UmU" Hair Pin]
After that I started receiving information about cooking from techniques, recipes and tricks. This Gacha opening could be complied into one sentance "Excuse me what the fuck". I was completely stunned, not only did I get the absolute knowledge over cooking but also the legendary [Nero "UmU" Hair Pin], oh and [Photographic Memory] that's good too.
I immediately went to my Inventory and got my Hair Pin out and started tying my hair once again.
[Name: Nero "UmU" Hair Pin
Description: What else could you need in life?]
I got up and walked to my closet that had a mirror attached to it and took a look.
"UmU"
I said quietly and nodded while looking at the majestic treasure in my hair. Now that my episode is over let's start thinking for real.
I received [Cooking Mastery] and [Photographic Memory] as my skills which are both extremely good, with [Cooking Mastery] I can easily prepare and make food and [Photographic Memory] pretty much eliminates studying meaning I have more time for everything else. Though it's odd that my first lives memories are still pretty blurry, it only seems to reinforce this lives memories.
School seems to be in the bag now with [Photographic Memory] though I do have to visit the library for the first week of school to learn more information about basically everything.
Now I need some protection from the supernatural world, I have a perfect idea for that.
I put my hands out & started activating my Magic Circuits and imagining the "Absolute Defense", the ultimate scabbard, Avalon.
As soon as I put my hands out white lines started traveling from my shoulders to my hands, huge amount of mana started gathering at the palm of my hands, the lines on my arms started glowing extremely brightly, I started seeing small almost pixel like cubes being formed on top of my hands, the exquisite yet simple details coming together like puzzle pieces.
I started sweating profusely realizing I did not take into account how much mana this would take, few seconds later my hands started feeling weight and I looked at my hands that now contained the beautiful yet simple scabbard, Avalon.
[Item Created!]
[Name: Avalon: The Everdistant Utopia
Description: The hallowed scabbard of Excalibur, the embodiment of the Utopia King Arthur seeks. Containing "Absolute Defense" as it's Noble Phantasm]
I managed to read the information about the scabbard before tightly hugging it and passing out.
