c3 (1/2)

I walked over to the entrance of the shop. A sign listing the premiums was set just inside the doorway.

The names listed here seem to be unusual tools or items with strong names and a notation of their rarity. Then, could this be a gacha shop?

“Rifua, is once okay with you?” “No!! Also, it costs 1,000 Rin to play!? and it’s fixed so that it’s hard to get a good item.”

“But there’s a chance that something good will come out, yes?” “I guess. But it would be an extremely rare chance to do so.”

Looking around inside, I can see that the clientele are young and old alike. Fidgeting, I reached for my wallet while wis.h.i.+ng to make sure.

The lottery device was not unlike the well-known hand-cranked capsule toy machines from j.a.pan, in which it held a number of capsules simultaneously.

“You can do it once, and only once. Ok?” “Then… I’ll just do it one time only.”

I entered the shop and waited in line. Three people at the head of the line handed their money to the shopgirl in order to gain tokens to turn the cranks.

“Stop you! That’s this month’s living expenses–”

With a shrill voice and appearance, there’s too much about the woman who complained at the man in tears.

“Oh come on! I’ll absolutely leave after one more turn!”

The shopgirl smiles while watching the fierce exchange.

The man gave the money to the shopgirl and turned a crank. Turn turn turn—-

The man walked out with 33 capsules in total. He confirmed the contents of the last capsule, and bowed his head in preparation of ‘orz’. (TN Note: That guy is getting ready to apologise on his hands and knees.)

“In this world, Gacha is a scary thing…….”

You feel like seeing a sea of gatcha. It is almost my turn. I rub my hands together to warm them up.

There is a person who makes a triumphant pose, and does ‘orz’, and people becoming absentminded appear one after another. This Gacha shop is full of pandemonium.

My turn finally arrived at last. I pulled my walled out of the item box, and pulled out a 1,000 rin bill and handed it over.

“What do you want to know?” “Would be alright to turn it 11 times with 10,000 rin?”

The shopgirl went to find out. Will I actually have to spend 10,000 rin?

I felt something behind me, and Rifua grunted with a garururururu.

“You promised! You said you’d only do it one time.”

We really don’t know what’s going on here, and I shouldn’t waste any money today.

I handed over 1,000 rin, and gripped the handle of the gacha.

“Please.” “……Let it be good!”

I turned the handle clockwise. GOTON—- a capsule fell out.

I swallowed my saliva and opened the capsule, which had a rainbow colored stone inside.

Wait, what? Is this even a prize?

““““Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?””””

The entirety of the Gacha shop made a stir.

“Eh. what, what? What is is it?” “You hit the jackpot, bro!” The old man from before clapped my shoulder.

“I…did it? Just what exactly did I do? What do you mean…..?”

The man pointed with his thumb at the sign with the premium list. Rainbow color….. ….rainbow color…. There, at the top?

Rainbow Color Stone: Grand Prize, magic flame sword Laevateinn

A—aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!?

I did it! It looks like I was successful and got a sword!
