Chapter 72: Beyond Luck

{Well, of course it’s random... but if your luck is good, you’ll pull things that are useful to you. I never said it would be totally random. You’ve also gotten a few things you didn’t need before.}

"Hmm... yeah, you’re right. Now let’s continue."

Nova spun the wheel again, committing to another 30 Gacha Keys. The golden wheel spun with dazzling brilliance before slowly coming to a stop.

[Better luck next time!]

[...]

Ding!

[Congratulations!]

[Better luck next time!]

....

"Well, okay. This wasn’t a total waste. I got three things this time. Let’s see what we’ve got."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Omni Tongue]

[Rank: S]

[It Grants the user complete comprehension of all spoken, written, and ancient languages. It also enables the user to decipher forgotten scripts, communicate with magical beings, and understand any form of language, regardless of its origin.]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"Hmm... this isn’t bad at all," Nova said, his eyes shining with excitement. "Now I can read and speak any language this universe has to offer. Heh, this will make things so much easier when I travel to new continents."

{ I shouldn’t say this since it’s close to breaking the rules... but this isn’t exactly breaking them, so I’ll tell you. }

{Although different races in this world have their own languages, most of them speak a common tongue — of course, it’s not English.}

{ You feel like you’re speaking English because your mind started interpreting it to your understanding making you a native of the language and this world after your transmigration. In reality, we’re speaking the language of this world Astraeian.}

{Still, Omni Tongue will be incredibly useful when you enter secret realms or unknown places in search of treasures and inheritances. Deciphering ancient and unknown texts will become much easier with this skill.}

"I’ll be damned! I never knew I was speaking a different language this whole time," Nova muttered in surprise. "Anyway, it doesn’t matter now. Even if I somehow forgot the language of this world, I’d still be able to understand and speak it perfectly thanks to this skill."

"Now let’s see what we got next..."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Void Hourglass]

[Rank: S]

[A legendary artifact that exists beyond the flow of time. By activating its power, the user can completely bypass the cooldown of any skill, allowing it to be used again instantly. This effect can be activated up to three times per day, regardless of the skill’s rank or cooldown duration.]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"...."

Nova was baffled by what he had just obtained. He remembered Liya talking about something that could bypass cooldowns before, but he never expected to actually get it.

It wasn’t completely unlimited, but being able to ignore cooldowns three times a day was still incredibly powerful.

{What do you think? Now you believe me, right? Heh, look at that silly expression~ You look so cute!}

"Yeah, I thought you were joking. I didn’t know I’d actually get it. Now I feel like I’m cheating somehow and the System’s owner will ban me soon."

{Haha, what kind of stupid logic is that? It’s just a lucky win in the gacha. No one’s going to ban you, so just relax.}

"Okay, if you say so..." Nova muttered. "I’ll have to use fusion again after this. I’ll see if I get something good and original that can earn me more Evolution Points."

"How many Gacha Keys are left?" he asked.

[63 Gacha Keys remaining.]

"Alright... I’ll go bigger this time. Hope I’m not making a mistake."

"FUCK IT!" Nova spun the wheel with determination. The golden brilliance was just as dazzling as before, but this time he had a strong feeling he’d pull some good stuff.

[Better luck next time!]

[...]

Ding!

[You have acquired a Legendary Item: Rouve]

[Better luck next time!]

[...]

[You have acquired an Ancient Item: Chronos Tear]

[Better luck next time!]

[You have acquired an Active Skill: Skystride]

[...]

[You have acquired 2 Luck Stats]

....

"Damn! I really got quite a few good things this time," Nova said with a wide grin. "People always say play big to win big — though you can lose big too. But I can afford it since my sexy System won’t let me down, hahaha!"

Nova laughed evilly. Liya simply rolled her eyes again at his comment.

He rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Let’s check everything out... Hmm, 200 Agility and 200 Stamina stats. That’s going to give me a serious boost in strength."

Then his eyes landed on the Evolution Stones. He asked in astonishment, "Is this what I think it is?"

{Check it out for yourself~}

Nova read the description and was genuinely surprised. It really felt like the gacha was giving him things he actually needed. At this point, he was convinced it wasn’t completely random.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Evolution Stone]

[Rank: S]

[Quantity: 2]

[A legendary treasure capable of raising a person’s potential by one rank. Upon use, it permanently upgrades the user’s maximum potential, allowing them to surpass their natural limits. It can only be used once on the same individual.]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"Well, it’s pretty obvious now, but I’m really happy I got two Evolution Stones. Father and Mother are only D-rank. Even if it only upgrades them once, it’ll be a huge help for them."

Liya sighed.

{Do you even hear yourself? People would kill each other for just one Evolution Stone. These things are extremely rare — they only appear in high-level auctions, and only kings, emperors, or insanely wealthy individuals can afford them.}

{ Even a duke like Theodore couldn’t easily buy one... and you just casually got two. At least show a little excitement!}

"Well, of course I appreciate it," Nova replied. "I know how valuable they are and how broken this is getting. For real, I feel like the sexy goddess I was praying to earlier is going to descend from the heavens and bring divine judgment on me for being this overpowered."

Liya heard his words and sighed deeply, seriously shaking her head. Sometimes her host really acted like an idiot.

"Okay, let’s see what’s next..."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Rouve]

[A legendary weapon with no fixed form. Rouve can transform into any weapon its wielder desires and grows stronger by devouring other weapons, permanently absorbing their essence. It inherits the rank and abilities of the weapons it consumes, with higher-ranked sacrifices granting greater evolution. With limitless potential, Rouve is destined to become the ultimate weapon.]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nova was shocked once again after reading the description. Today he felt like he might actually die from too many shocks. The gacha was handing him one powerful item after another. His excitement had already crossed all limits and was now overflowing.

"So basically, this is an ultimate weapon that can take any shape I want. I can feed it other weapons, and it will absorb them completely — gaining their rank and abilities."

{Yeah, it’s perfect for you. Since you possess skills like Eternal Weapon Sovereign, you won’t have to search for decent weapons anymore. Just kill your enemies, take their weapons, feed them to Rouve, and voilà.}

"Oh, that’s really cool," Nova said, eyes wide with interest. "No wonder its default shape is like a dark slime. That explains its use perfectly. No one would ever suspect it’s a weapon at first glance."

"Now let’s move on to the next one."
