Chương 101: System Partners I
I can't say that I'm not satisfied with the harem route. My harem is filled with psychopaths and they're also contagious, soon Kyoko will be another one of them in mind and soul. But it doesn't matter… normal girls wouldn't be able to keep up my pace in this world.
Being that the case, it is already time for me to reveal to them what the rules are as I ABSOLUTELY don't plan to have any other girls in this harem. May a lightning bolt strike me if I forsake this noble oath.
...
"So, you have a gacha on your head, Brand-chan…" Shizuka asked me after I finished my explanation (if it could be called that) of how my powers worked.
I debated on whether I should tell them this or not and upon further consideration, I decided to just spill the beans, if they know how it works then we can work more efficiently to collect gacha points instead of simply killing everything that stands in front of us indiscriminately.
"Yes".
Upon confirming, her eyes turned into stars… one thing that my blonde girlfriend quite enjoyed was games of randomness. Clothes, gacha, casinos… anything she could waste her hard worked money at, she loved it.
"Then can we play-"
"No..." Lucy pulled Shizuka into a wrestling lock, thankfully... the last thing I need is this ludomaniac forcing me to play gacha just so she can soothe her urges.
"Why a gacha of all things? couldn't it be I don't know, some superpower?" Rei asked with crossed arms, I could very well ask Sonasha the same question.
"Superpowers, you read too many books, Rei" Saya huffed in disdain, ready to puncture any words that came out of Rei's mouth.
"Are you one to talk, Miss Genius?"
Instead of arguments, my pink-haired girlfriend had a way better form to counter anything that Rei said. Saya walked up to where Rei was and mercilessly boasted her bigger assets in front of the group, obtaining my attention and Rei's irritation in the process.
"That power, gacha or whatever, it doesn't explain how you can store things"
"As I said, those are not powers, those are... functionalities. One of them is for me to store things, another one is to scan anything and reproduce it using gacha points, and the last is a scanner that allows me to see the infected in an area of a mile around us like red dots".
"No wonder... it is easier to believe those functionalities than the gacha, though. Is that where the monkey bomb came from?".
"Yes, I obtained it in the weapon section".
"We should try to roll more of those to see what we can get!" Shizuka yelled and everyone rolled their eyes in response. No, Shizuka... I'm not heeding any of your advice.
"And you said you can even summon people. That's where you came out from, Lucy-san?" Arisa asked with deep intrigue; she had been here all this time and I didn't try to conceal anything from her. There was little threat that she could pose to us as she is.
"That's right. I was summoned to help this choom here" Lucy spoke offhandedly, drinking some beer while sitting in a lotus position on her chair, her pyjamas are loose and I can barely catch a glimpse of her nipples... I'm sure she's doing that deliberately since the guys are gone. Little wench, you and I have some due action.
"What does 'choom' mean in your world anyway? I was wondering why your accent was so deep but I have noticed you use quite a few Americanized words that I don't understand... at least they weren't taught to us" Saya seemed t have enough and finally willed herself to ask this question. So far everyone had tolerated Lucy's way of speaking... her Japanese was rough yet understandable, however... every so often she'd spill out words that I didn't understand, I had to ask her myself for the meaning of those words like 'choom' or 'chrome' as they were terms inherent to her world.
My rainbow girlfriend, however... was a little odd, a dog that barked at anyone that was not its master.
"It means suck yo motha, Saya! Hahahaha!".
"…"
"..."
We all remained silent as she laughed maniacally, dropping as wet, visually anxious. None of us understood the joke, her saying that with a gun in her hands didn't make things better.
Saya looked at me and then pointed at Lucy, "Is this real?"
"Hahaha!" Lucy broke her ass laughing even more to the point Arisa, the more agreeable one out of all of us, started to laugh mildly as well even if just to get rid of this awkwardness.
"Sorry, It is Lucy's 'cyberpunk sense of humour' please let her be... I apologise on my girlfriend's behalf, she needs therapy".
Now everyone laughed except for one person whose outbreak stopped abruptly; before Arisa could offer her services, Lucy jumped on me, sending the two of us to the ground and locking her gaze with me. She then descended and kissed me deep and nice before retracting with a kind smile.
"I hate that you know me so much"
"If not I, who will understand you and laugh at your skewered sense of humour? who is going to take you to the moon, Lucy?" I held her cheeks, ready for another kiss of those delicious lips.
"Brand..."
*Cough!*
"Leave the romanticism for later, this is an important serious family meeting." Saeko -who had been silently cleaning her sword- decided to interject to stop the bubbly mood that was raising between Lucy and me.
We both chuckled slightly and exchanged a gaze without words that conveyed a single message, 'later'.

"How can we help him get more of those gacha points?" Saeko asked the rest of the girls, a top topic of discussion. I don't know what can be done... so far only Lucy and I count for gacha points, it is fair since the two of us together with Saeko and Hirano are the ones that kill the most zombies. Takashi, Higuchi and Rei who are at the front also kill a lot of them.
"We would have to weaken the zombies while you and Lucy kill them yourself… like having Hirano shoot their foot" While we all mumbled for ideas, hearing the shots coming from upstairs, Saya spoke to me what came into her mind... it was at that moment, however, that Hollow deemed it necessary to show an appearance.
[Regarding this issue, Brand. I could offer you a limited accord]
"Ah? what is it?" I lifted up my hand, indicating that these words were not for them, yet they listened attentively.
[A way with which your girls could have access to the inventory and scanner, their kills could also count for gacha points in the system. Originally, this could only be possible if they inherited power through you, however... I can make this change with an upgrade]
"R-Really? how would that work?"
...
"Who is he talking to?" Arisa whispered to Kyoko who in turn asked Lucy for an answer.
"That system of his is like an artificial intelligence, he's talking to it now".
"Impressive".
