Lumi softly chuckled in response, her voice filled with playful wisdom.
[But Master, it might not have had nearly this much impact or effectiveness if you’d revealed it all too early. The timing was perfect, I’d say.]
Orion nodded thoughtfully, his lips curling into a faint smile as he continued his leisurely pace toward his room. ’You have a good point,’ he inwardly admitted, acknowledging her insight. ’Sotis... timing really is everything.’
Reaching his room, Orion gently pushed open the heavy wooden door and stepped inside. His eyes instinctively swept across the familiar, comforting space.
At the center rested a neatly arranged ditation mat, simple yet practical. Near the window stood a small wooden table and chair, placed deliberately so Orion could gaze into the tranquil garden while working or contemplating.
Opposite that, a large wardrobe stood quietly beside an elegant dressing table, its smooth surface polished to a reflective sheen, a mirror glinting gently atop it.
Feeling a sense of quiet contentnt, Orion walked slowly toward his bed, sinking comfortably into its plush embrace.
He stretched slightly before settling himself, his dual-colored eyes flickering excitedly toward the ring held securely between his fingers.
With the fortune Eldric had casually bestowed upon him, countless opportunities and possibilities now danced vividly before his mind’s eye.
Grinning openly now, Orion issued a silent ntal command with unmistakable excitent, ’Lumi, convert half of these Mana Crystals directly into SP.’
Lumi’s excitent echoed imdiately in his consciousness, her response bubbly with enthusiasm. [Right away, Master! (≧◡≦)]
Instantly, Orion sensed half of the Mana Crystals vanish smoothly from the storage ring, drawn seamlessly into the Limitless System.
He watched intently as Lumi’s screen flashed brightly, numbers rapidly counting upward before finally stabilizing at a remarkable total—
[55,000 SP].
Orion’s eyes imdiately widened in astonishnt and delight at the unexpectedly high final value.
His heart surged joyously as he exclaid inwardly, ’Lumi, the quality of Grandpa’s Mana Crystals is quite high!’
Lumi giggled cheerfully, clearly sharing his excitent.
[Indeed, Master! Grandpa Eldric’s collection truly lives up to his reputation.]
Orion leaned back comfortably on his bed, chuckling joyfully as he gazed up at the room’s softly illuminated ceiling. ’Haha, finally! I no longer have to live the miserable existence of a poor beggar. Now we can truly explore the system without holding back.’
Lumi quickly joined in, her voice practically sparkling with excitent.
[Exactly, Master! So... is it finally gambling ti? (≧▽≦)]
Orion grinned broadly, nodding decisively, his voice tinged with playful enthusiasm, ’Yes, Lumi, it’s ti. Go ahead and start the draws!’
Instantly, an upbeat, dramatic Gacha background music began energetically playing in his mind, courtesy of Lumi’s eager preparations.
Just as Lumi excitedly prepared to roll the first draw, Orion abruptly raised a hand, stopping her gently yet firmly. "Wait, Lumi."
Lumi imdiately paused, slightly confused and pouting adorably on her virtual screen. [Eh? Why the sudden interruption, Master?]
Orion smiled gently, explaining warmly, ’Do 100 draws all at once, and just give the final results directly. No need to create suspense like last ti. Let’s do this efficiently.’
Lumi’s virtual image sighed dramatically, clearly disappointed at being denied the theatrics, but she obediently complied.
[Alright, Master, no suspense it is!]
Monts later, Lumi’s screen flashed rapidly through nurous draws, the exhilarating process happening instantly. Soon afterward, the results appeared clearly displayed before Orion’s expectant eyes:
[Empty – 35]
[Common – 63]
[Uncommon – 2]
Orion calmly nodded, his expectations grounded and realistic after experiencing the unpredictability of the Gacha system.
He wasn’t disheartened. Instead, he imdiately focused his attention on the two Uncommon-grade treasures, curious about their effects and practical uses.
’Lumi, show the details of the two Uncommon-grade treasures first,’ Orion asked with curious tone.
Lumi’s virtual screen shifted quickly, clearly displaying detailed descriptions of the two treasures:
[Echo Flask (Uncommon Grade) – Stores one use of any ability witnessed, magical or physical. Limited to once a week.]
[Stormbinder Codex (Uncommon Grade): Comprehensive knowledge regarding the Lightning Elent with Spells ranging from Tier 1 to Beyond Tier 9.]
Orion’s eyes lit up with happiness reading the item descriptions. These items were truly helpful, especially the Stormbinder Codex, as he had already learned the Thunder Elent and now he could study it in depth.
’These two are excellent finds, Lumi,’ Orion said happily, his smile reflecting his satisfaction. ’Now, among the Common-grade treasures, is there anything particularly interesting or useful worth noting?’
Lumi took a few monts to sort through the nurous items swiftly before highlighting several promising Common-grade treasures.
[Master, among the Common Grade items, there are a few noteworthy ones:]
[Cleansing Sun Orb (Tier 9) – Emits a radiant wave that purifies curses, weak corruption, or poison effects in a 10-ter radius. Three uses.]
[Eraldleaf Ring (Tier 7) – Passively accelerates natural healing and stamina recovery by a small amount.]
[Minor Genesis Furnace (Tier 6) – Miniature mobile forge that allows crafting of Tier 1–5 artifacts, accessories, and tools using mana and basic materials.]
Orion leaned back comfortably against the soft cushions of his bed, his dual-colored eyes filled with intrigue as he continued scanning through the impressive array of Common-grade treasures that had appeared from his recent draws.
He thoughtfully read each item’s description again, murmuring softly to himself in appreciation, ’These might be labeled as "Common," but their usefulness is genuinely impressive.’
Lumi’s virtual form bobbed excitedly near him, her digital eyes sparkling with enthusiasm as she nodded eagerly in agreent.
[Yes, Master! These items have practical value far surpassing their supposed "Common" label. Especially the Cleansing Sun Orb. Its sheer usefulness could put it above so Uncommon-grade treasures. It must be due to the limited uses.]
Orion smiled faintly, nodding gently, his gaze shifting to the first of the items ntioned. ’You’re right. This Cleansing Sun Orb is really good,’ he comnted thoughtfully, ntally visualizing scenarios of its use.
’Its purifying effects against curses, corruption, and poisons make it invaluable for our future explorations. Three uses might seem limited, but in dangerous scenarios, even one tily usage could an the difference between life and death.’
Lumi’s bright screen flickered warmly in agreent.
[Exactly! In any exploration, unforeseen threats like poison traps, hidden curses, or minor corruption from demonic entities are ever-present. This orb could neutralize threats instantly, allowing you and your friends to safely run away from otherwise perilous environnts.]
He continued talking about the other two treasures with her before he exhaled contentedly, feeling a sense of anticipation welling within him.
After this brief reflection, he decisively straightened his posture, eyes gleaming brightly with determination as he addressed Lumi once again, ’Lil Lumi, let’s not stop here. Perform 600 draws at once. With our current fortune, I want to see how far we can push our luck.’
[Kyaaa Master is becoming a gambling addict again!! (≧◡≦)]
Orion shook his head and just said, ’Just hurry up.’
Lumi’s virtual kaomoji shook with excited anticipation.
[Six hundred draws at once! Master, you’re truly going big this ti! Hehe, let’s see what treasures fate has prepared for us!]
With those playful words, Lumi began the BGM again as Orion watched eagerly. Monts later, a brilliant cascade of shimring lights filled Lumi’s screen, a srizing display that signaled the start of the draws.
’Show the results directly again, Lumi,’ Orion gently reminded, a small yet eager smile forming upon his lips. ’This ti, let’s hope for so even more remarkable discoveries.’
Lumi playfully sighed, mock lant clear in her tone.
[Aww, still no suspense, Master? Fine, fine! Direct results coming right up! ( •̀ ω •́ )✧]
