Chapter 5: Provide Gacha! Having set a goal for the next 3 months, Ken had a lot to do. Getting up from his seat, he remembered that he still had one more thing to do. "[Provide Gacha]!" As if on cue, he was once again transported to a new spiritual realm, one where things were a little bit different. Different in the way that this was almost a true realm; wherever he looked, mountains, clouds, and rivers made of gold and jewels surrounded him and blessed his vision, making even him startled by this level of luxury and Providence’s way of showing off. Suddenly, he looked up, seeing a huge golden gacha machine with but a single frame on it; on it, the words "Infinite Gacha" stood imposing and bold. Then, it clicked, and the words vanished before the frame moved up, constantly changing. Ken couldn’t see anything until it started slowing down. [Starless Techniques], [Starless Skills], [Starless Weapons], [Special Starless], and [Profession] *Tick* *Tick* *Tick* *Tick* *Tick* *Tick* For the last few seconds it changed again and again, making Ken start to get nervous and excited at what he could get. Then, the gacha stopped at [Starless Skills]. "So something that has to do with my element, huh?" Ken’s curiosity was piqued; he had the death element, an element that was mysterious, full of potential, and incomparably dangerous. *Fwsh* Just as a sound of wind rushing was heard, the golden gacha machine disappeared for a golden wheel to appear with so many sections that Ken’s head throbbed. He was able to look at the wheel clearly, even when it was so high up, but he deduced that he would need hours or even days to read all of the death element-related skills on the wheel. And those were just basic Starless skills, nothing too advanced or hard. So he waited, patiently. He looked intently as the wheel spun majestically and how it stopped on a skill that made his mind buzz with possibilities just from the name alone. [Faceless] This was the skill that was stopped on. As if to tell him that someone who owned the death element should be like death itself, shapeless and without identity, like a reaper. This was what his mind told him, and when the skill was absorbed by his mind, he realized two things. First, the skill’s information was given to him. Second, it seemed that the skills given by the Gacha were maxed out the second he absorbed them, reaching their full potential, but he could never take them to the next star level. Still, he didn’t bother thinking about it, as just the benefits this skill brought him were unimaginable, though that was from the information he had so far. The skill Faceless not only allowed him to change his face to whatever he wanted; other’s memory of his face could even be erased if he so wanted, and if he killed any being, be it human or otherwise, he could take their form. Not to speak about the countless possibilities this opened. He could even take the form of other species to reach places he normally wouldn’t be able to as a human. But Ken, in his current state, even after deducing countless ways and plans he could use this skill to benefit himself and get out of trouble, due to his clueless self, couldn’t fathom how useful this skill truly was. It was an obvious statement, one he himself realized fast, but he couldn’t help it. Still, this allowed him to become a ghost-like entity. And this also made him understand a few bits and pieces about elements, or possibly only the death element due to its uniqueness. He wasn’t supposed to use his element as a tool, but elements were there to be fused with oneself. In short, he wasn’t supposed to be a death element cultivator; he was going to become death itself. Embodying the very essence of the element, becoming it, and bringing justice to the concept. This was the final goal, a long path, but in the end, he, ultimately, should become death! This was just one skill, Faceless. One that spoke of the very essence of death, where he should become unknown and feared, an entity that made people dread even coming across him. This was one step forward, but step by step, he indeed would use the tools he was given most efficiently. Information and efficiency were Ken’s life motto... and goals. ------End------
