"I have good luck?"
Kiana herself wasn't self-aware and instinctively reached for the phone.
"No, just pull it like that."
If she took it, the jig would be up. This interface wasn't displayed by a game; it was Takatsuki shrinking his system panel to the size of a phone screen and covering it. When he moved the phone, he was also moving the panel in sync. He had practiced this for a long time yesterday while waiting for the tasks to refresh.
"Alright, that's weird."
Kiana didn't suspect anything and tapped the ten-pull option.
Both of them stared at the gacha interface's light effects. Takatsuki didn't even tap to skip and speed up the gacha animation, but watched the cards appear as the light effects slowly ended.
The first card appeared before Takatsuki with a purple glow.
Purple meant A-rank, but this pull was guaranteed to yield an S-rank, which was gold. This meant that this A-rank wasn't the guaranteed pull.
Kiana's luck was unbelievably good!
Tree of Plenty (A)
Effect: Can be planted in a chosen plot of land, generating various fruits. After harvesting, it will be full again the next day.
Description: A card from Greed Island, usable only once. The tree will die immediately after being transplanted.
Although not very useful, this was an A-rank item, and it had no negative effects. Overall, it was more cost-effective than some consumable food items.
After several consecutive blue consumable items, a golden light appeared on the screen.
Dog Talisman (S)
Effect: Immortality, immunity to all fatal attacks, keeps the holder's body in a youthful state.
Description: One of the Twelve Talismans
"..."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Takatsuki suddenly jumped up.
"Ahhh! I got it!"
Takatsuki suddenly hugged Kiana, startling her.
"Huh? Huh? What's wrong?"
Kiana was still in a daze. She just thought it was a game, and she could only see the names of the items that appeared; the effects only appeared in Takatsuki's mind.
So, she didn't know the significance of this S-rank item to Takatsuki.
Takatsuki had been searching for something that would prevent him from dying in the Honkai world.
Originally, he had only hoped to find a way to increase his Honkai Energy resistance or adaptability, but now, although his adaptability hadn't increased... if he couldn't die, did he still need it?
Although he could still be corrupted by Honkai Energy, it was fine as long as he was alive. He knew there were many things in this world that could eliminate Honkai Energy, but they couldn't be used as medicine to treat Honkai sickness because people would still die after using them.
Without another word, Takatsuki equipped the newly acquired Dog Talisman and subtly let out a sigh of relief.
At this point, the gacha results also ended, and two more A-rank items appeared after the Dog Talisman.
Skin Care Hot Springs and Swap Ticket.
Both were cards from Greed Island. The former, like the Tree of Plenty, needed a place to be placed and would generate a hot spring that beautified the skin. It only took thirty minutes for the skin to become as smooth as a baby's. The latter was a set of cards, a total of a thousand, and by giving one card to another person, you could take their place for twenty-four hours.
For example, if Kiana had an exam, Takatsuki could give her the card and go take the exam in her place, and no one would notice, thinking Kiana had taken it.
But in reality, you are still you, without any changes, and you won't gain anyone else's abilities. Places that require their fingerprint to open cannot be opened with your own fingerprint.
And it also needs to be given to someone else. Although it can be forced, if you can't defeat the other party and they don't accept it, it's meaningless.
But that's enough!
Anyway, they were all freebies; he only needed the Dog Talisman.
Speaking of which, this time, three items from the same place appeared consecutively, and Takatsuki finally confirmed that this gacha system seemed to have a chain mechanism: after pulling an item from a certain place, the probability of pulling items from the same world would increase.
He had pulled many items from Ezio's world before. Not to mention the hidden blade that he hadn't used yet, he had also pulled many other swords and hidden weapons, all of which were white quality items and worthless.
"You're too exaggerated."
Kiana patted her clothes, which had become wrinkled from the hug, but she wasn't angry.
"But looking at you, I must be really amazing, right?"
Indeed, very amazing, at least in terms of luck...
"Ah, Lady Kiana is too amazing. You really saved my life."
More than one life, the effect of immortality, that counts for how many lives.
He subtly put away his phone.
"I've decided, no more ramen! Let's go for sukiyaki! We'll eat our fill today!"
"Huh? Okay!"
Takatsuki put down his half-eaten ramen, while Kiana finished all her ramen in one gulp before following Takatsuki to the next place.
The Kaslana Family's characteristic of having a huge appetite was still fully displayed by Kiana, even now.
The two ordered many dishes and began to feast. Takatsuki quickly became worried. Although he had saved money for a long time, it seemed almost not enough for Kiana. It would be awkward if he couldn't pay the bill later.
Sukiyaki itself wasn't cheap, and after Kiana finished feasting, Takatsuki's money had shrunk by eighty percent.
It seemed he still had that bowl of ramen before coming to thank for.
However, Takatsuki didn't feel bad about it. On one hand, Kiana had helped him a lot, and on the other hand, he didn't care about this money, after all, in the Honkai world, this money wasn't of much use.
"Ah~ I'm so full."
Kiana leaned against Takatsuki as they walked.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten this much."
These words made Takatsuki's face darken.
"So you deliberately tried to fleece me?"
"Ehehe..."
She smiled apologetically, "Being with Takatsuki, I always feel like I'm home, like I'm with my stinky old man."
"It seems we were really familiar before, even though I don't remember, there's a familiar feeling."
No, that's just because you're too lonely.
Takatsuki didn't say it, because he knew he had made it up, but he didn't mind treating it as fact.
A person with bad luck meets a small liar who will only deceive her for a while, then break her heart.
But a person with good luck meets a big liar who deceives her for a lifetime, and at least while alive, she will be happy.
In terms of luck, perhaps no one in this world could surpass Kiana.
Looking at Kiana, who was still leaning on him as she walked, Takatsuki didn't mind continuing to deceive her like this.
