Chapter 7 December 27 Payday
It’s the end of the year. Three months and change since I first pulled a gacha… and I still can’t believe I’ve got weird powers now. Even if someone told me it was all a dream, I’d just go, “Oh… right…” and that’d be that.
Snow falls here, decently. The usual empty lot’s completely white—four or five centimeters piled up.
I blew out white breath and pulled the gacha fourteen times.

The items that came out were those fourteen…
Magic-wise, “Dark Magic” and “Enhancement Magic” showed up. Dark Magic? When I use it, darkness spreads out in front of me—countless shadows shoot out from within it, dragging objects inside.
Where they go? No idea.
Enhancement Magic seems to increase hardness—of people, of things. If I level it up more, maybe I can do other stuff too…?
Calculation Acceleration? Not sure… says it speeds up mental processing, but doesn’t raise Intelligence stat. Intelligence goes up via “Magic Power Boost,” so maybe Intelligence isn’t about smarts—it’s more about raw magical power?
Does Calculation Acceleration *really* make you smarter?
“Intimidation”? What’s that? Seems to lower the opponent’s stats…? Anyway, I’ll just eat them all.

Skills and magic are piling up like crazy now. Lately, I’ve been wondering if I can turn any of this into a business somehow.
Especially Spatial-Temporal Manipulation—it’s got so many uses.
Delivery? Maybe? Heard there’s a shortage of truck drivers for big freight hauls these days… uh…
I’ve got this endless space where time stops, can move perishables in bulk instantly… but… nope. Totally impossible. I’ve got zero business sense. If someone asked me how I’d do it, I’d be stumped.
And so, as I’m stuck in that loop, the year just slips by…
Really appreciate the feedback. It’s helped a lot. Thanks.
