Leo sat in his dimly lit room, cross-legged on the velvet cushion, the moonlight pouring through the window casting a pale silver hue across the floor. His fingers hovered over the glowing system panel, hesitation briefly flickering in his sharp eyes.

[System Points: 10,000] [Lottery Draw (x10): Cost - 10,000 Points]

"So this is it," Leo muttered to himself. "Ten draws. All my points. No turning back."

A deep breath. Then a tap.

[Confirm?]

"Yes."

[Comncing Ten-Ti Lottery Draw]

The screen burst into radiant golden rays as the first draw was completed. A small bottle appeared before him, hovering mid-air. It shimred with a faint pink hue and bore a soft, floral fragrance.

[Reward 1: Glass of Aunt Full Love Milk - A legendary nutrient source created by an ancient divine matriarch.]

Leo’s eye twitched. A black line etched itself across his forehead as he stared at the floating glass.

"What the actual... why would I drink a woman’s milk?" he grumbled with disgust, shaking his head. "System, just take it away... throw it into space. Maybe Alex will like it."

[Item stored in System Space.]

With visible irritation, Leo started the second draw.

[Reward 2: A pair of 30-year unwashed socks - Still warm, still ripe.]

"Wha—" Leo stopped mid-sentence as the socks appeared with a nauseating wave of stench that assaulted his nostrils like a rampaging beast.

He gagged, pinching his nose tightly. "This sll could revive the dead and kill them again! What the hell is wrong with you, system?!"

He hastily shoved it into the System Space. "All these good things should be gifted to my dear brother Alex. Let him enjoy this masterpiece of stench."

[Item stored in System Space.]

With his face stiffened from trauma, Leo went for the third draw, hoping for sothing remotely useful.

[Reward 3: An egg. Just... an egg.]

An ordinary-looking egg plopped into his hand.

Leo’s hand trembled. His brow twitched. "No description? No powers? No lineage of the Divine Chicken Clan or sothing?! Just a damn egg?!"

He flung it at the System Space without hesitation. "System, if this hatches a chicken that pecks at night, I’m deleting you."

[Item stored.]

His patience was wearing thin. Drawing again, he braced for impact.

[Reward 4: A pillow - Extra soft, filled with unknown clouds.]

A pink fluffy pillow dropped onto his lap.

"...I don’t know if I want to scream or cry," Leo whispered, deadpan.

He squinted at the pillow. "What do you even want to do with this? Have a nap while soone kills ?"

He sighed and stored the pillow with a slow hand.

[Item stored.]

Draw five.

[Reward 5: Charm Potion - Induces irresistible attraction and uncontrollable desires for 6 hours. Affects all genders, all ages.]

Leo paused.

Then read the description.

His eyes widened.

His hands trembled.

"...Six hours?! To any gender?! Even... children?!" He shuddered.

He swallowed. Slowly.

"...This is evil incarnate. A potion from the depths of hell. This... this isn’t ant for . This was clearly created for one man."

He grinned sinisterly.

"Alex. This is your destiny. May the gods bless your soul."

[Item stored in System Space.]

He muttered under his breath, chuckling to himself like a deranged villain. "He won’t know what hit him."

Draw six.

[Reward 6: High-Quality Premium Stockings - Imported from the Interdinsional Pervert Market.]

Leo stared at the silky pair of black stockings with pure disbelief.

"What the hell is this, System?! Do I look like soone who collects won’s underwear?!"

He paused.

He rubbed his chin.

"Though... they do look good. Quality-wise. And the shine on them..."

He snapped out of it, slapping himself.

"No! No! Dammit, Leo, focus! You’re a pervert, not a degenerate. And I paid system points for this! This?!"

With an enraged huff, he threw it into System Space.

[Item stored.]

"Screw this... at least this can be used as a gift. Alex, you’re welco again."

With flas in his eyes and hope burning low, Leo drew the seventh reward.

[Reward 7: Sailor Girl Cosplay Dress - One size fits all.]

A complete sailor outfit dropped into his arms.

Leo looked at it.

He blinked.

"...This system is rigged. This is a scam."

He stood up, holding the uniform, and considered tearing it.

But then an image flashed in his mind.

Selena.

Wearing this.

Serving him tea.

Calling him master.

He bit his lip and chuckled devilishly.

"Actually... maybe this outfit isn’t so bad."

He stopped again, eyes wide. "No! What the hell am I thinking?! Focus! Three more left."

He slapped his forehead, regaining composure.

[Proceeding to Draw 8.]

[Reward 8: Immortal Scripture - Part I (Fragnted) - Grants the bearer the ability to bend the laws of heaven and earth. Collect all 5 parts to unlock full power.]

A thick, golden scroll floated down into his hands, humming with ancient power.

Leo’s eyes lit up with reverence.

"Now this... this is the kind of shit I’m talking about. This alone can bring entire empires to their knees."

The scripture glowed faintly, radiating imnse power.

He read the label again.

"Part one, huh... four more to go. That ans more gambling. More pain. More stockings, maybe. But worth it."

He smiled for real this ti.

He looked at the remaining counter.

[2 draws left.]

He took a deep breath. "Alright. Give sothing with swords, please. I need sothing that screams ’kill now, ask later.’"

He closed his eyes and tapped the draw.

Leo’s fingers trembled as he tapped the ninth draw. His heart pounded in his chest.

[Reward 9: Unknown Ancient Sword Art - Origin Untraceable.]

A scroll wrapped in aged dragon-hide slowly descended before him, glowing faintly with runes neither divine nor demonic. The title etched in forgotten script shimred as he reached for it.

The mont he touched the scroll, a storm of sword intent burst out from it, cutting through the air like ethereal blades. The entire room shook.

[Unknown Ancient Sword Art] [Description: A lost technique created before the concept of swords was even born. It does not follow forms, styles, or elents. It is said to flow with the user’s emotions and sheer will to cut through all things—fate, reality, even ti. Mastery begins with insanity and ends with silence.]

Leo’s pupils shrank. He clenched the scroll, knuckles white.

"F-Fuck..."

The word left his lips, not in frustration, but in genuine excitent. A wide grin broke across his face as he let out a loud roar of unrestrained joy.

"YES!!"

He jumped, spun, and even kicked the pillow he’d received earlier into the air.

His celebration was so loud that Anne, his loyal maid, bolted upright from his bed.

Her hair a ss, eyes bleary, she panicked. "Y-Young Master?! Are you under attack?! Have the Flaborn assassins returned?!"

Leo spun around, scroll in hand, shirtless and wild-eyed like a madman.

"Anne! Anne, I just won the freaking lottery of my life! The sword art! A real one! Not cosplay! Not socks! Not pervert potions! An actual art!!"

Anne blinked. Once. Twice.

Then stared at the scroll.

Then at Leo’s face.

Then she whispered. "...He’s gone mad."

She slowly picked up a nearby pillow, just in case she needed to knock him unconscious and tie him down.

anwhile, in the Bladecrest Family Manor...

Roxanne Bladecrest stood alone in the moonlit training field, sweat dripping from her forehead. Her sword danced through the air, each swing sharper than the last.

"Ha! Hah! Hyaaaah!"

Her movents were relentless, practiced, and furious. Her once-pristine white training robe was drenched in sweat, yet her steps didn’t falter.

From a distance, Rio Bladecrest stood leaning against a pillar, mouth agape.

He finally stepped forward and called out, "Hey, Sis. You’ve been at it for hours. What’s gotten into you?"

Roxanne didn’t stop. Her blade flashed again.

"I will defeat Leo," she declared with clenched teeth.

Rio blinked. "Huh?"

"That smug bastard," she hissed, slashing harder. "Always acting superior. Making look weak. I’m the damn princess of the Bladecrest family! It’s ti he knows it!"

Rio’s jaw dropped.

Then tears welled in his eyes.

He sprinted forward and hugged her tight, startling her.

"You’re finally back! My stubborn, prideful sister is BACK!" he cried.

"W-What the hell are you doing?! Get off!" Roxanne yelled, flailing.

But Rio held on.

"From now on, I’ll train with you! I’ll grow stronger too! We’ll defeat Leo together and prove our worth!"

She scoffed but couldn’t hide the small smile on her lips.

Behind them, their father stood silently on a terrace, arms folded. The breeze rustled his cloak.

He sighed, but it was a sigh of relief.

"So Leo has beco their driving force..." he muttered. "Even if they hate him, they’re growing stronger because of him. Maybe that boy... maybe he truly is changing our fates."

He looked to the stars, a small smile playing on his lips.

"The Bladecrest Family will rise higher than ever before. With the Skydawn and Aetherwind families by our side... our future is finally secure."
