Volume 3 - CH 19

Finally. Inside my room in the village, I continued to wait for the coming moment.

There was a rising feeling of exhilaration in whole body. My heart hoped dearly for the time to come sooner.

That’s right, June. I knew I’d be able to see the remaining time tick down by the second if I looked at the gacha window.

Having experienced the gacha changing when it switched from April to May, I couldn’t help but anticipate what it would change to for June.

Since the April gacha banner was swapped out at the start of May, I obviously couldn’t help but wait for the same change out as June was starting.

If I got a message saying something like “skills are only available up through march”, then I’d probably start cursing god once again.

At the present moment I’d saved up 10000 points. With this many I should be able to begin my conquest of the June skills right away. Feeling my anticipation towards this, I continued waiting for the day to change in my room.

After a short while of this, I heard a knock from the entrance door. Opening it up, I found Livia. From the doghouse I’d set up out front I could see Rufina glance at me.

“Lord Crest, I see you are still awake.”

“I’m too excited to be able to sleep.” I invited Livia into my house. Livia was also looking forward to my new gacha, so we arranged to meet tonight. I followed Livia into the room, and we sat down beside each other on the bed.

“Just a little bit longer then?” Asked Livia after I showed her the gacha window.

“Yup.” Livia rested her soft body against mine. I gently petted her head, prompting her to further nuzzle up against me happily. Like that, we killed time flirting with each other like usual until finally the date changed.

The screen flashed brightly for a moment.

“Is it time then, Lord Crest?”

“Ah, yeah it is…” I swallowed my saliva for a moment before peering into the screen. For starters the fact that there was a gacha at all was reliving in and of itself. After that, there was the goodies:

“June Special! The assassin gacha is now open!” was now written. …The pickup banner included the three skills “Assassin”, “Disguise”, and “Weakness Detection”.

“…Assassin, is it? I wonder what sort of skills those might be?” Livia tilted her head and asked seeing the newly available skills. [TL Note: Assassin is written in English, so this isn’t a dumb question]

“Looks like some kind of professional killer.”

“A professional killer? It sounds a bit unsettling, but I suppose having your combat abilities go up is a good thing… right?”

“I guess so. But an assassin usually specializes in killing from the shadows and the like. Right now we tend to have a lot of fights straight on, so I’m uncertain whether or not I’ll be able to put it to good use.”

“Certainly, when you put it that way it does seem like a skill more suited for someone like a spy.”

It does seem to be that way. A spy using various things to change their appearance is perfectly suited for the assassin skills.

But, just having a new gacha was enough to fan my gacha hunger. What effects will the Assassin skill have? I can get the gist for the Disguise and Weakness Detection skills though. Whatever, I just want the new gacha skills. Then I want to try them!

“Alright, let’s roll it.”

“Right. Do your best!” Will Livia’s support, I rolled the skill gacha.

With 10000 points I can roll twice. Now for the eleven time gacha. Feeling a bit nervous I rolled the gacha.

The treasure chest appeared before my eyes. I touched it, causing the usual orbs to come out.

“5 copper, 3 silver, 2 gold, and 1 rainbow. Right now you would prefer to have more rainbow right?”

“Yeah, but it’s fine. Right now I’m happy with anything.” I replied to Livia while checking my skills.

This part was the same as usual. Next was silver.

These are all skills I know as well. Sword technique speaks for itself, but Construction technique is incredibly handy, so I consider it a big hit. Next up is the gold skills.

Hmm? I noticed that there was a brand new skill this time. Trap magic? What’s that supposed to do?

【Trap magic: Allows magic that activates under specific conditions to be installed in a location】

…I see. This could be pretty handy to have while hunting. Might also help raise the defensive capabilities of the village.

Taking a look at it, it seems like Trap magic doesn’t activate on its own. Instead when I activate trap magic I can load it with some fire magic for example. The condition can be something like “activate when stepped on” or some for it to activate when some other condition is activated.

Looks like I can use fairly specific conditions as well. Isn’t this pretty useful even at level 1? I thought, but it seems like it’s limited to only being loaded with level 1 magic as well. Looks like it will be hard to use until I can raise the its level a bit.

Alright, next up is finally the rainbow skill. I wonder what’s in that one? I reached my hand out to the rainbow skill orb.
