Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: [Berserk] Skill Book x1, [Free Stat Points] x10

"Ding, purchase successful!"

As the system notification chimed, one thousand points were deducted from the balance displayed on the system panel.

Simultaneously, a new light screen materialized.

The plain white jar that had just been acquired appeared silently before Tsubasa Amagiri.

"Do you wish to open it?"

Gazing at the pop-up window hovering above, Tsubasa Amagiri scrutinized the white jar for several seconds. It was remarkably unremarkable. Couldn't it at least have a bit of shimmer? Was it truly not empty?

This damned sense of anticipation… was it all a lie?

"Open it!"

Clatter, clatter – the jar depicted on the light screen before him vibrated intensely, and at the same moment, a faint white light emanated from it.

Hmm… it has that distinct scent!

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained the [Rampage] skill book x1. Do you wish to use it immediately?"

As the jar shattered into countless motes of light and dissipated completely, a skill book radiating a brilliant glow lay quietly in the light screen, clearly visible to Tsubasa Amagiri.

[[Rampage]: From the DNF game world, it is a unique skill of the Berserker class. After system modification, it can be acquired directly through this skill book. Upon activation, it consumes physical stamina as a cost, thereby granting a significant increase in strength, speed, and sensory perception.

Note: Young individuals, please be mindful of stamina consumption. Overexertion may lead to kidney damage!]

Damn kidney damage!

System, I suspect you're being suggestive!

Complaints aside!

At this moment, Tsubasa Amagiri was still in disbelief.

He hadn't held high hopes, yet his luck had proven extraordinary, a basic jar had yielded such a superb skill.

Simply by expending physical stamina, he could drastically enhance his strength, speed, and endurance for a short duration!

This was precisely what he needed most right now!

Combined with the perfect-level [Flying Sword Flow] he had mastered, his combat prowess would experience a tremendous surge!

Epic enhancement!

This was undoubtedly an epic enhancement!

"Use it immediately!"

Bang——

The skill book resting on the light screen shattered instantly, transforming into dazzling starlight.

In an instant!

A torrent of information flooded Tsubasa Amagiri's mind.

Tsubasa Amagiri narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a few seconds, he exhaled softly. The process of receiving the information wasn't unpleasant, just a slight throbbing in his head.

After rubbing his temples, he felt a little better.

Just as when he had first learned the [Flying Sword Style], this [Rampage] skill, modified by the system, had completely integrated into every fiber of his being, deep within his cells, becoming an instinct he had fully mastered.

"Through specialized techniques, you can control your muscles and blood flow rate to temporarily enhance various attributes…"

This was akin to top-tier divers who could effortlessly hold their breath for over ten, even twenty minutes, far exceeding the limits of ordinary individuals.

The same principle applied here!

Tsubasa Amagiri was eager to test it out – to see how much his strength would be amplified after activating [Rampage]. However, glancing at Saeko Busujima beside him, and Marikawa Shizuka and the others who were huddled in an office chair not far away, clutching a bag of biscuits, he abandoned the idea. This was a rare moment of rest. Any commotion would spoil it. It was best not to cause trouble!

In any case, they would have to go to the parking lot later, and combat would be inevitable.

By then, there would be plenty of opportunities!

"Since I can't try it out, I'll just keep opening cans!"

Tsubasa Amagiri reopened the can purchase page.

[Come and have a look, there is absolutely no vacancy!]

Looking at the slogan that was constantly flashing, Tsubasa Amagiri's lips twitched. He finally understood that regardless of the country, so many people bought lottery tickets.

Who could resist this!

"Ding, purchase successful!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained 500 points!"

"Ding, purchase successful!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have won a box of [Small Umbrella: Ultra-thin]!"

"Ding, purchase successful!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained 500 points!"

"..."

Looking at the system panel, with over 4,000 points remaining, he fell into deep thought.

He had bought three jars, and indeed, none were empty!

But!

He had spent 3,000 points, and in the end, he only received 1,000 points and a box of small umbrellas?

That meant!

He had spent 2,000 points to buy a box of small umbrellas?

Why the hell didn't he just go and grab some!

The small umbrellas in the system mall were only 20 points a box!

Confirmed!

This gacha system was truly a rip-off!

[Come and have a look, there is definitely no vacancy!!]

Looking at the incessantly flashing slogan, Tsubasa Amagiri felt a slight throbbing in his temples, and he seemed to hear that long-lost and familiar voice in his ears.

[Young warriors, wouldn't you like to try your luck?]

Damn, so tempting!

"System, buy a can!"

Tsubasa Amagiri knew he should quit while he was ahead and cut his losses. After all, he had already obtained the superb skill [Rampage].

The three thousand points he had initially invested should be considered the price he paid for the [Rampage] skill.

But sometimes, everyone understands the logic, yet few can actually follow it!

Tsubasa Amagiri was also a little excited, but he was still somewhat restrained. He had originally planned to spend three thousand points, but now he had only spent two thousand. He might as well use the one thousand points that were returned.

At worst, he could get another box of small umbrellas. It wasn't as if he wouldn't need them!

Tsubasa Amagiri glanced at Saeko Busujima, then at Marikawa Shizuka, the innocently alluring older sister.

Tsk…

He guessed that might not be enough!

As for Rei Miyamoto and Saya Takagi…

Tsubasa Amagiri hadn't considered them for the time being.

One was a tsundere young lady he didn't want to provoke.

The other, he had just slapped her, and now she seemed to want him to do it again. With her personality, she probably hated him to death.

They were not within his immediate considerations!

just as Tsubasa Amagiri was daydreaming, the purchased jar began to shake violently once more, and with a faint brilliant light, the reward inside, which was advertised as definitely not empty, appeared before Tsubasa Amagiri.

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained [Free Attribute Points] x10!"
