Doujin Artist: What the—? The red envelope event started outta nowhere?
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: No heads-up this time?!
Lin Fengjiao: Opened envelope, received 1000 points.
Wig Guy: Opened envelope, received 200 points.
Amegakure Village's Angel: Opened envelope, received 500 points.
Soul Society's Bad Guy: Opened envelope, received standard item [Type 95 Main Battle Tank], plus tank-driving skill.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: ?
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: ?
Doujin Artist: A... tank? A freaking tank?! Since when could a red envelope drop a tank?!
Amegakure Village's Angel: I guess this is what they call variety? And it even comes with the driving skill... Hua-sis just hit the jackpot.
Soul Society's Bad Guy: Okay but… what am I supposed to do with a tank in Soul Society?
Unohana Retsu stared at the olive green tank that had suddenly appeared in front of her, lips twitching slightly.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: I mean, hey—it's still a tank. A weapon of war. Could be useful.
Soul Society's Bad Guy: It's not even strong enough to block one swing from me. If you want it, I'll drive it over.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: I don't have the driving skill. (Expression: helpless)
Amegakure Village's Angel: And you can't return what you draw, so for now it's just yard decoration. The real issue is—how are you going to explain this to Isane?
Soul Society's Bad Guy: Just say I brought it back from a shopping trip to the human world.
Curly-haired Guy: Most people shop for clothes or makeup. You went and bought a tank? Guess that's just how Hua-sis rolls.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Opened envelope, received legendary item [Morphing Magic Outfit]
Doujin Artist: Legendary?! Mochou-sis really hit the jackpot this time. What is that Morphing Magic Outfit?
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Just a piece of clothing. [Image]
Once the image opened, what they saw was a tight-fitting outfit in purple and blue. But unlike normal ones, this suit was dotted with glowing energy orbs that looked like jewels.
This is an Actor: Doesn't look like ordinary clothing.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: It's not. It can draw energy from the wearer to form a protective shield. It can also change its appearance based on what the wearer thinks or likes.
Machete Girl: Whoa, that's super useful!
Amegakure Village's Angel: Yeah, way more useful than that legendary outfit Gintoki pulled before.
Doujin Artist: Hahahaha, hey—at least Gintoki's was "indestructible." Like, literally never wears out!
Curly-haired Guy: Shut it! Don't rub salt in my wounds, damn it! I swear I'm gonna pull a god-tier prize this time—I can feel it!
Doujin Artist: Opened envelope, received epic talent [Spirit Arts Mastery]
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: A talent?! Eriri-chan, you actually pulled a talent?!
Doujin Artist: Hmph hmph hmph, didn't I say I'm not cursed with bad luck? I, Eriri Spencer Sawamura, am definitely *not* unlucky!
Eriri looked smugly at the talent description in front of her.
Spirit Arts Mastery: Control magic with the spirit, master all arts.
Effect: Energy cost and cast time for all skills and abilities are cut in half. Power of all skills and abilities increases by 50%.
That's really strong!
This talent was perfect for someone like her, who liked to fight using kido and magic. Trying hard to hold back her excitement, Eriri copied the description and sent it into the group chat.
Amegakure Village's Angel: Not bad, that's a really strong talent!
Soul Society's Bad Guy: Definitely useful.
Curly-haired Guy: Tch, it's only a 50% power boost! Don't forget, the president got a 500% boost!
Doujin Artist: That was Anran's. Do you have one?
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Don't be mean, Eriri-chan~ At least Gin-san gets to wear cute bear undies. We don't even have that.
Doujin Artist: True, that is kind of impressive.
Curly-haired Guy: Hah, say what you want. But today, I—Gin-san—will break free from the shame of bear undies! Just you watch! Watch me closely!
He angrily sent the message, while scrubbing his hands hard in a washbasin, trying to make them sparkling clean. He believed that clean hands would bring him good luck for opening red packets.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Opened red packet: gained 2,000 points.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Huh? Didn't Ruiko also get 2,000 points last time?
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Yep, same as before. I thought maybe I'd get something different this time.
Amegakure Village's Angel: Honestly, being that consistent is a blessing. 2,000 points can probably buy something as good as a legendary item.
*Buzz.*
As the group chatted, the screen of the chatroom suddenly began to shake. A bright golden light flashed, and glowing red text popped up.
This is an Actor: Opened red packet: gained god-level manual [Blue Lotus Sword Song]
Machete Girl: What the—there's even special effects now?
Soul Society's Bad Guy: My eyes nearly got blinded…
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Anran-san pulled another god-level drop...
Amegakure Village's Angel: Be honest, Anran-san. Are you cheating?
Doujin Artist: Come on, this has to be rigged! Either that or you're the system's golden boy!
Even Eriri, who had just gotten an epic-tier talent, started feeling a bit salty. How was it even possible to pull two god-tier items in a row? What kind of god-level luck was that?
Shark-Faced Guy: Last time was a talent. This time it's a manual.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: What even is a god-level manual?
This is an Actor: Nothing much. Just a decent sword cultivation technique.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: "Decent" to you is probably something beyond our wildest dreams.
Pretty Boy from Skull Island: Cultivation technique? Like in martial arts novels?
Machete Girl: If it's god-tier, it has to be something big even for a martial arts manual, right?
This is an Actor: Well, calling it a martial arts manual isn't totally right. It's a qi-refining method. In simple terms, it's for becoming an immortal.
Lin Fengjiao: Achieve immortality?
This is an Actor: Pretty much.
The secret technique has already been engraved into Anran's mind, and it's actually more than just living forever. Right from the start, you can form your own sword core and reach the level of a celestial being.
In other words, just practicing the first part is enough to become immortal. No one knows how far it can go after that—not even Anran, who's already reached the True God level, can see the end.
Curly-haired Guy: Damn it, I'm starting now!
Pushed by Anran, Gintoki Sakata finally gave up on his peaceful "retirement" plan and angrily tapped the open button in the middle of the screen.
Buzz.
Golden light flashed, and a bright red message appeared in front of him.
Curly-haired Guy: Opened the red envelope and got an unbelievable reward: [Thanks for participating].
