Chapter 92: Chapter 92
[Ding!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Sequence Potion "Magician."]
Eren stared at the Magician Potion before him, which would have cost 3,000 Fate Points to manifest, now drawn in a single tenfold draw.
Ignoring the other nine items from the draw, this one potion alone made Eren feel like he had hit the jackpot.
But...
Looking at the potion before him, Eren's expression darkened instead of brightening with joy.
If the first time was a coincidence and the second time a fluke, could the third time still be called chance?
After becoming a Diviner, his first tenfold draw had landed him the Clown Potion, worth 2,000 Fate Points, and the purple-rated Cosmic Brain Meditation Method. At the time, he had marveled at his luck.
After all, pulling a follow-up potion for his path from the countless prizes on the Fate Compass was an extraordinary stroke of luck.
He had attributed it to sheer good fortune.
But now...
After becoming a Clown, his first tenfold draw had miraculously granted him the Magician Potion, the next step on his Sequence path.
Was this really a coincidence?
At this moment, even his first draw, which had granted him the Diviner Potion, now felt suspicious.
"The Gifts of Fate"
Eren's mind replayed the message he had first seen when the Fate Scale had gifted him 100 Fate Points:
"Every gift of fate comes with a price secretly marked."
Murmuring this phrase to himself, Eren felt as though a massive shadow loomed over his destiny, an invisible hand manipulating the threads of his fate.
The sense of powerlessness and unease extinguished the pride he had felt after planning and executing the downfall of the Assassin Factory.
Heh.
A pitiful soul whose very destiny might lie in the hands of another—what right did he have to feel proud?
Of course, all this was merely Eren's speculation. Perhaps he was overthinking things.
Who's to say that his stroke of luck wasn't simply a boon from the Fate Scale?
Taking a deep breath, Eren calmed himself, clutching the Magician Potion emitting its strange glow. He then proceeded to open the remaining two green and seven white orbs from the tenfold draw.
The two green orbs revealed:
[Strong Healing Potion] [Fortification Stone]
[Strong Healing Potion]: Rapidly heals all injuries below fatal wounds upon consumption.
The description was simple, but the effect was immensely powerful—a life-saving item.
The Fortification Stone, on the other hand, left Eren speechless.
[Fortification Stone]: Crafted by Kaylee of the Celestial Realm, it guarantees one weapon enhancement.
[Trait]: Contains unique enhancement rules but does not guarantee success. Failure might instantly destroy the item being enhanced. Use with caution.
[Note]: "Enhancement is risky. Proceed with caution, young one. Are you ready to take a chance?"
Ignoring the painful memories stirred by the Fortification Stone, Eren turned his attention to the seven white orbs, which yielded:
Eggshell Grenade ×1
Terror Doll ×1
Smith & Wesson M500 Pistol ×1
The Complete Guide to Dark Cuisine ×1
Stink Bomb ×1
Strong Hallucinogen ×1
Lollipop ×1
Apart from the filler items like the Lollipop and The Complete Guide to Dark Cuisine, the Eggshell Grenade, Smith & Wesson M500, Stink Bomb, and Strong Hallucinogen were all valuable items.
As for the Terror Doll, it seemed terrifying in appearance but had no discernible abilities.
After tallying the rewards, Eren shifted his gaze to the massive shadow of the Fate Scale hanging over the River of Fate.
With the Magician Potion in hand, Eren suddenly decided to try a different way of spending his remaining 10,000 Fate Points.
Rather than continuing with another draw, Eren approached the Fate Scale projection with Sloan's Serial Killer Extraordinary Trait in hand.
Eren wasn't skilled at crafting, nor could he forge this trait into an extraordinary item. It made more sense to trade it for something more useful.
"Exchange."
The moment the words left his lips, a smaller projection of the Fate Scale appeared before him.
Eren quickly grasped how to use it. After stating what he wanted, he placed the Serial Killer Extraordinary Trait onto one side of the scale.
For a brief moment, Eren felt a faint sense of disdain, as though the scale found his offering akin to picking up discarded trash.
However, the sensation was fleeting, and Eren dismissed it as his imagination.
Soon, several projections began to form on the other side of the scale, presenting his options:
[Flesh Tai Sui]: A unique biological entity from another world. When provided with sufficient water and nutrients, it can rapidly produce large quantities of edible flesh.
[Note]: Overconsumption may lead to unforeseen transformations.
[Endless Flesh]: A mysterious chunk of meat from an unknown entity. Possesses endless vitality and can regenerate infinitely, no matter how much is consumed or destroyed.
[Note]: Though inexhaustible, it doesn't look particularly appetizing.
[Meat Synthesizer]: A high-tech creation from a futuristic world. Capable of producing synthetic meat in a variety of flavors using specified formulas and materials.
[Note]: Comes preloaded with over 1,000 premium recipes.
Based on the value of the Serial Killer Extraordinary Trait, Eren could choose one of these items to exchange.
