Chương 10: Summoning!

Ding!

[The [Daily Task]: [Defeat 10 Foe: 1 Orb] has been completed!]

[You gained 1 Orb]

[The [Main Tasks]: [Complete Tutorial Dungeon: 20 Orbs] has been completed!]

[You gained 20 Orbs]

After the shock of seeing the characters of my novels being portrayed over the Gacha Banner, I get showered with System notifications, where I got the rest of the Task rewards.

Alongside that, I decided to look at my Status while trying to cope with the insanity of this situation.

…

[Name: [Gustav]

[Race: [Human]

[Element: [Null]

[Weapon Type: [Any]

[Orbs: 26]

[Gold: 1630]

[Hero Feathers: 1000]

[Job: [Summoner]

[Skill Points: 63]

[System Rank: 1]

[Level: [05/10]

[Vitality: [50/50]

[Mana: [1.400/1.400]

[Strength: [50]

[Magic: [230]

[Dexterity: [63]

[Skills: [Summon]

[Summoned Heroes: None.

…

I got a lot of stats… But I don't know how exactly strong is that.

Though compared to everything else, my Mana is pretty high, so I guess that's my "Cheat Stat".

In every novel with the main character with Status, there is always a "Cheat Stat", a single stat that the Main character exceeded.

The most cliché of them all is Mana, of course. It is easier to write about a guy with a lot of Mana so you don't have to worry about managing it through battle and as a writer, you can go all out with it.

But there is also some fun in writing an MC with limitations regarding Mana and their "fuel" so they need to be cautious in how much they manage such power.

Well, now all of that fantasy crap is real, so, as the mentally unstable man I am, I see myself a bit like one of such characters, but I guess such a thought process is greatly flawed, I should relax and don't let my inner chunni take over my entire soul.

I have to remain with some sanity as well, or I won't be able to do correct judgment.

Anyways…

WHAT?!

My novel characters are in the gacha.

Why?

What is this?

This feels both amazing and also cringe.

Does this mean that the most stupid of my characters can now come to life?

This is both cool and weird.

But I am just incredibly excited to ever summon any character then…

I glance at the Gacha Banner, all the main characters of my novels are there in the front.

They all shine with different auras of colors, and they all seem to be wielding weapons, although I remember that not all of them wielded them originally.

I suppose they had been changed according to the gacha and the game-like mechanics.

However, there is a small button that shows me the chances.

And just as I thought, they have different stars, from 1 Star to 5 Star.

However, 1-2 Star Heroes don't appear in the Gacha, as the Orb Gacha is named "Premium Gacha" and only has Heroes with 3 Star to 5 Stars.

The 1 and 2 Star Heroes appear in the Hero Fragment Gacha…

Hero Fragments seem to be an item that appears after I use a Hero in a certain way.

For example, by converting it into a Skill for me or another Hero, or by "sending him back home" where I would get Hero Feathers.

With Hero Feathers, I can increase the Stars of Heroes by the way.

Anyways, Hero Fragments is the residual item you get after doing one of such actions, and if you accumulate a bunch, you can use them in this "Poor Gacha" to get 1 and 2 Star Heroes.

Well, even if they are 1 or 2 Star, you can still make them 5 Star by spending a crapload of Hero Feathers… The same goes for 3 and 4 Star Heroes.

There is only one Gacha Banner as of now, but it seems that there might be more upcoming, as there are two slots with a timer in them… the two appear to be able to appear in 4 days from now.

One of them is named "Beach Episode Gacha Banner" and the other is "Dark Paths Gacha Banner", where I guess the Focus Heroes might be different?

The Beach Episode one… will there be versions of these characters but wearing swimsuits?!

Well, this is really like a Gacha Game now…

It seems that the first time I summon there's an increased chance of a 5 Star.

Oh, chances.

Well, it seems that it is obvious that 3 and 4 stars have a higher chance of appearing…

These are the rates.

3% for 5★ focus units.

3% for 5★ units.

58% for 4★ units.

36% for 3★ units.

As you can see, there are two chances for 5 Star because there are Focus units on each Banner, which the banner revolves around, such Heroes are often new or something.

Although there are no new Heroes here, the "Focus" ones are still in the normal 5 Star rate.

And of course, the Orb prices…

First Summon Selection is 5 Orbs.

After that, I will be able to choose four more summons, which will have reduced cost.

Second Summon Selection for 4 Orbs.

Third Summon Selection for 4

Orbs.

Fourth Summon Selection for 4 Orbs.

And Fifth Summon Selection for 3 Orbs…

I see, so a full summon cost 20 Orbs…

Additionally, by Reading more info, it seems that all Heroes come with an Element and a Weapon type, even I have those, although my Element is "Null" (Void maybe?) and my weapon type is "All".

However, there are other elements, which are represented in different colors, such as Dark being black, Light being white, and so on…

Now, enough explanations and more summoning, I won't wait 4 damn days to summon something from those Gacha Banners on hold…

So, time to summon.

I glance at the System Window as I quickly tap it with my index finger, selecting the big button that says [Summon: 5 Orbs], and decide to spend the 20 right away to get 5 Heroes immediately.

Flash!

As soon as I tap it, the System window changes, as it shows what seems to be some kind of large magic circle, which begins to spin around.

After a few seconds, it stops, as it drops several and colorful jewels.

Although some shine brighter than others, it seems that they are of all different colors… So these are Heroes…

The jewels suddenly move around the magic circle generating magic circles below them, as each one shines brightly and reveals what kind of entity was within them, and I begin to see many faces.

I had not commissioned illustrations for all my characters, so there were some I could not recognize right away…

But then… one of them, the shiniest of them all reveals who is it there.

And I know who she is, as I had commissioned art of her several times…

I can't believe my luck… I guess we are starting with a 5 Star.
