章節 1: To Spin or Not to Spin
Within a white space that seemed to have no end nor beginning a structure of light came into being, the structure split apart, as it did a few beings fell out into the white space breaking the silence with their screams and cries.
"Ahhhh!" "Mommyyy!" "Hic!" "Uwaaaa"
The scattered students soon noticed where they were, except for some frail ones that kept bawling most of them started to calm down and get up
'Hmm? Where are we? Did we die?'
Shun thought to himself as he got up, he had calmed down pretty quickly and started looking around, he saw that Rekka and two girls next to him were already calmly assessing the situation like him, aside from them everyone else was pretty much still flustered
[Welcome guests form another world]
"Huh? W-who's there!"
"Where is the sound coming from?"
Jack and the punk from before, Sid, were looking around in fluster
[I am the being that summoned you to this world]
The voice continued unhurriedly, as it talked the students could see light specs forming together into a humanoid figure, once the sparkles faded they saw the most beautiful women they had ever seen their entire life. She had white hair longer than her own body that swayed about while she levitated in front of them, her eyes shifted in color with each passing second, her body looked as if it had been shaped to the limits of humanity's beauty.
[My name is Levia, and I am the governor of the world you are about to be sent to]
As her melodious voice tickled their ears everyone gulped a few mouthfuls, even Shun couldn't help but stare at her beauty, it was almost hypnotizing to look at
[Now then I will grant you my blessings before I send you off to the world]
Her statement snapped some of them out of their trance, one of which was Rekka who soon voiced out his concerns
"What is the world we are being sent to and why? Why did you summon us?"
Levia smiled at the question putting sending everyone into another trance as they admired the beauty of the smile
[That is for you to figure out, I will now bestow upon you my blessings]
The students suddenly felt their body being lifted...because it was, and they were separated from each other, forming a circle around Levia, then the white ground beneath them cracked and a peculiar object came out, the object looked square-ish and had a lever with a sphere on its end, it almost looked like…
"A slot machine?"
Shun unconsciously said out loud, he really couldn't link this thing to anything else than a slot machine
[Indeed, you shall gain my blessing by using the slot machine, in the world where you are being sent everyone gains three skills once they are of age, most of them gain common or uncommon skills while a rare minority could get rare or epic skills, and only a few chosen ones could get a legendary skill]
Levia let the few of them process her words a bit before continuing
[Each of you have one legendary coin in your slot machines, you could spin the slot machine to get a single skill of the legend rank, or you could exchange the coin for two coins of a lower rank, the choice is up to you]
Once she was finished Shun didn't hear the retorts and questioning he expected from his fellow students, in fact he didn't hear anything as only the sound of his breathing could be heard
Shun waited a bit but still didn't hear anything, so he turned his attention toward the slot machine in front of him
He noticed that other than the lever on the side of the machine there were two buttons next to the screen, one pointed up while the other pointed down, between them was a small screen showing a coin glowing with a golden hue with the number one next to it
'This is the legendary skill coin?'
He inspected the machine a bit more but couldn't find anything else, after looking around he decided to go around the machine to try and see if the others already pulled the slot machine
But when he looked behind the slot machine all he could see was white mist that gave zero visibility
'Trying to isolate us eh?'
He turned back to the screen and started recalling what the women Levia had said
'There are five ranks to skills based on what she said, they follow the same order that games do, but their drop chance in the world is really low, which means anyone who gets a legendary rank skill would be able to pull his weight about'
Going by that logic it would most definitely be a wise choice to choose to spin for a legendary
'On the other hand, she said the people there only got three skills when they became of age'
Though most people would let this detail go and focus on the bigger and longer explanation about ranks Shun paid more attention to it instead
'Did that mean they could gain more skills later? Or is it they are stuck with what they get from that moment onward, hmm she didn't say anything about that so I can't make any assumptions'
He stared at the coin for a while in debate, after hesitating a bit he pushed the down button, that caused the coin glow purple instead while the number next to it rose to two, Shun then pressed the up button and that caused the coin to go back to the single legendary coin again
'So I can switch back, okay let's see how many coins I can exchange if I keep going down'
Shun pressed the down button a few times more, after the two purple colored coins which should be epic, he got four blue glowing coins which should be rare, then eight green uncommon coins, and finally sixteen white common coins
'Just as she had said, for each coin you can get two of a lower rank, though she didn't deliberate on that too much'
Shun still didn't make the spin as he thought about it some more
'If I could get a legendry rank skill that could put me together with the few most powerful people in that world, and my path should become smooth from then onward, but…'
His eyes wandered toward the many question marks that filled the screen, it was unknown what skill they held within
'If I choose to get a legendry rank that would mean I would have one single skill, and it is unknown if I could ever gain anymore skills, which could mean that the skill from then on would define who I am for the rest of my life in that world, and if that skill happened to be one that is useless or mediocre then…'
He could easily imagine a few bad scenarios that could happen to him if that was indeed the case
'On the other hand I could get two epic or four rare skills, which could give me a larger chance at gaining a useful skill'
He kept bouncing the ideas within his mind for a while, but no matter how much he debated he really couldn't see one being absolutely better than the other, with the limited information he had there was no way to figure out a definite answer
'There really isn't a best choice here, but I'm not going to go for a single legendry skill and bet my life on this one chance'
Shun thought what type of coin he should exchange for as he looked at the slot machine, it really would have been great if there a reward list that he could review before he made the spin…
'Wait, she never said the coins lower than legendry would only give use skills of that rank, this is a slot machine after all, there might be a chance to get higher level skills with lower value coins'
Thinking about it from this perspective Shun made up his mind, he exchanged for sixteen common coins before pulling the lever with a heavy heart
A single box appeared on the screen while the question marks started to spin, finally they stopped after a few seconds with a sound
Dun!
There was a white glow around the question mark in the box, Shun looked at it and then pressed his hand on the question mark, what followed was a sudden wave of power that ended pretty quickly, but Shun knew that he had gained the skill within as new information now existed within his mind
>Cooking [Common]: The ability to cook all that is edible on the earth
'Cooking? And it's a common skill, hmm well it never hurts to be self-sufficient'
Thinking that it was still the first pull and he shouldn't expect too much he pulled the lever again
The slots spun and landed on another question mark, which he touched, this time though the power surge was even less than the one before it
>Long Nails [Common]: Instantly protract your nails
"W-wha? This can also be called a skill?"
Shun muttered to himself in wonder, he never thought having long nails could also be called a skill, but thinking about it again it might be sharp nails like the claws of a cat so he tried to use the skill
[You cannot use skills in this space, only when you are sent to the world would the skills start taking effect]
The melodies voice tickled his ears, he raised his head but he still only saw white fog, it appears Levia was still watching
'Well off course shed be watching, she's probably waiting for us to finish then send us back'
He pulled the lever again and repeated his previous actions
> Quick Step [Common]: An instant step that utilizes the bodies maximum speed
He pulled again
>Lesser Demon Summon [Common]: Summons a Lesser Demon to be bound to the summoner
Again
>Water Element Mastery [Common]: Mastery over Water
Dammit Again!
>Unnerving Aura [Common]: Those around you will feel unnerved by your presence
"Did I mess up by choosing this?"
Shun started panicking at this point, he was down to ten pulls and he hadn't gotten a single uncommon skill, if the slot machine really gave skills that were of the coins rank then he had failed big time
"I will spin twice more and if I don't get anything other than common I'll exchange the last eight back into a single epic coin"
He extended his hands to the lever as he thought about his failed theory, he might end up with a trash epic skill rather than a trash legend skill which was even worse, and most of the skills he got didn't look too helpful
'Do I have to spin them manually like this? Usually there is a ten spin button…'
His hand that was about to pull the lever froze a bit, then he hurriedly let go of it and started looking as the machine instead
'Yes how could I forget, usually there is a 10 spin that could raise the odds of a higher drop, though it may be that there are only common skills for common coins but it won't hurt to look around'
As he looked around the machine and to its side he couldn't find a single other button
'Do I really have to spin twice before spinning for an epic…'
Not resigned to his fate he went to the back of the machine to look more, and to his surprise he found a single glowing light at the back
'What is this?'
Thinking it couldn't go worse he pressed the light, what followed was a loud sound of cogs shifting about, but other than that there were no changed to the machine
"Sigh"
He disappointedly walked back to the front of the machine and prepared to spin…
"Huh?"
On the screen there were now ten boxes lined up, five on the top and five on the bottom, between them was a single diamond shaped box with a plus on its top right, many smaller question marks filled the new screen but looked the same to the previous question marks other than size
"There truly was a ten times spin, and it seems it's one of those spin ten get one free, finally my luck is looking brighter now"
He took a deep breath, held it in, and pulled the lever firmly
Dun Dun Din Den! Dun Dun Den! Dun Din Dim! Din
With each skill settling in the box a sound popped up, when it was a white one it was quite dull and it became higher as the rarity of the skill increased
Finally, there were eleven skills on the screen, five of which were shining white while three were green one of which was the one in the plus box, two others were blue and one was purple
"C'mon c'mon be something good!"
Shun rubbed his hands before pressing on the epic skill first, he wanted to get the load off his chest so he went in for the big prize
A huge amount of power that sent a rumble through his body surged forth, it made Shun's face wrap up in discomfort for a few seconds before it started to settle down, giving him some room to breath
"Haah, that was suffocating, what the hell would I feel if I had to get a legendary?"
He gathered his breath for a bit as he brought forth the new skills information
>Soul Rend [Epic]: Rends the targets Soul apart
"Woo, sounds nice, guess I got something good"
With a lighter heart Shun continues to absorb the other skills from the screen
>Eagle Eye [Common]: Eyes as sharp as an eagle
>Alchemist [Common]: Mix Potions using common ingredients
>Spiritual Blood Pool [Uncommon]: Condenses a Spiritual Blood Pool within the Soul
>Lucid Search [Rare]: Meditate to use the mind to search the surroundings
>Polearm Master [Common]: The ability to wield all Polearms
>Smash [Common]: Smash the enemy
>Stealth [Rare]: Enter a hardly detectible state
>Therianthrope-Crow [Common]: Turn into a crow
>Night Vision [Uncommon]: Can see in the night
>Limit-Release [Uncommon+]: Release your limits!
'Uncommon plus? Is it special or something? Hmm I'll have to check on that when I get to the world'
Seconds after he had absorbed the last ability from the plus box white light started shining around him, and he heard his classmate's sounds, some of them complaining, while others sighed in relief, but they all became quite as Levia spoke to them for the final time before sending them to the world
[Before I send you I must warn you to not speak of this place to any occupant of the world, else you would suffer punishment, lastly I hope all of you can strive to achieve your dreams in your new world, Best of Luck]
As her words feel down the light finally shifted out of existence, sending the students to the new world, with it a sigh could be heard in the now almost empty space, followed by a melodies muttering
[I tried to hide it but alas they found it…]
Then the white space went back to its original silence
