Gacha Rules And First Roll
As the liquid flows into my mouth I can't help but appreciate the unique taste.
.
.
.
Which is nothing.
"When you have everything, you have nothing." A saying that suggests that everything and nothing are interconnected.
Sweet, Sour, Spicy, Bitter etc. Just like how the visuals of the bottle tried to cover all the colours, it looks like the taste decided the same thing too but this time I tasted nothing but everything. That's a cool effect I guess.
It felt like warm milk flowing down my throat or is it cool or cold?
[A/N: -_- first statement seems kinda sus]
I then remember why the bottle seems familiar.
The Essence Meta CYOA.
Almost all the meta essence are fucking op to borderline insane. And the Meta Essence Gacha sticks because you can get all Meta Essence From it.
[A/N: If you were going to be isekaied and you could 3 meta essence to acquire, what would they be?]
So if you are lazy and have good luck then you are on a straight path to being op.
With the Gacha I have the possibility of gaining anything in the omniverse and all of fiction and realities.
I have always had enough resources to combat the negative side effects of the Gacha. When you stare at the abyss, The abyss stares at you. If you are not rich and do not have good luck, DO NOT TRY ANY GACHA.
[A/N: *insert warning*]
When choosing the configuration, I chose cards since that's what I'm most comfortable with.
The Essence of Gacha unlike other Gachas' does not try to dry your resources like a succubus. The rules can be simplified like this:
· It is possible to gain people, items, and powers from all works of fiction and all realities.
· There are other consumables that increase power, modify items' appearances, and change character personalities. One-time use only.
· You earn 01 Gacha Point per day.
· You need 03 Gacha per roll.
· You can buy a maximum of 100 Gacha Points monthly, for 01 US dollar (or equivalent) per Gacha point.
· You can buy in groups of 10 rolls, spending 30GP and guaranteeing that at least one good card will come (above what you would earn).
· Or you can pay double, 60GP for 10 rolls, for something specific to the world you are in. Could change if you get a new world setting from the Gacha.
That's it, simple and not that many. There are other Gacha modes where I can pull cards for free but they are low-tier.
Getting the 100 dollars is easy, the problem is the limitations of rolls. If the limitations didn't exist I could do quite literally hundreds of rolls right now. Hopefully, better things will come the more I use the Gacha. Maybe removing the limitation entirely. Doubt that will happen anytime soon.
Not that I'm complaining since one dollar per GP is cheap is extremely cheap for something as op as Meta Essence Gacha.
I got up from where I was sitting walked over to my bedside drawer and got my wallet, pulling out a hundred-dollar bill I wished it to be used for the Gacha. The bill disappears. Puff, gone. No fancy lights, no flames, no confetti, no sparks, just here one moment then gone the next.
And 100 GP appears in my Gacha display. Thinking a bit, I need to simplify the display, like a system panel or something similar.
According to my thoughts, it becomes a simple screen in the air, and the Gacha points in the upper right corner.
In the centre is an empty circle with the Gacha spin printed on it, probably where the cards will come out from.
On my right, right under my gacha points is a tab with a bunch of empty rectangles. This is where all the cards I haven't used will be.
And on the left is my status. Something simple but concise. Having my name, race, age powers, perks, items, and character assimilation all displayed. Well, I have none of the last four so they remain empty.

Character Assimilation is no doubt my most powerful ability. Allowing me to assimilate the power, techniques and experiences of characters.
Imagine I get lucky and get someone like Nova Laos. Except for the SCP Universe and other fictional characters, I have nothing to fear. And the characters that I can't defeat would number at most 50.
But like all things, there must be balance. The ability has a limitation and that is I can only assimilate 2 characters at once.
How about the summons? It says all summons are loyal but not obedient. So if I ask them to do something against their ideals they can refuse but won't betray me. So if I summon Artoria and tell her to kill some innocent people she won't do it, unless I manipulate her to awaken her alter version. Hopefully, I get her.
And items will be mine and I can choose, and I can choose if I want to make it useable by others. Useful for unexpected situations, I would give my future subordinates some of my gacha items so if they ever betray me or the items get stolen I can render it useless to either usage or scanning or copying.
Well, only one way to calm my thoughts. Into the dark side, it is.
[A/N: Pray for him brothers, that he may return normal and sane after he sees the other side.]
I have decided to do three 10-pulls for the normal gacha.
Roll the Gacha.
1. Taskmaster (Marvel-616)
Hmmm, I don't know much about him apart from him being a mercenary and having something called photographic reflexes where he can copy almost all physical movement of an opposite party leading him to know almost all martial arts and copy almost all of them. He should also be able to use all weapons known to man.
2. Yor Forger (Spy x Family)
The cutest assassin there is and also one of the deadliest. A 100% super soldier, someone able to cut a tennis ball into cubes with a tennis racket. Will be useful to summon since she will be able to train assassins for me but if I assimilate I not only get her ridiculous strength, I also get her skills as one of the best assassins there is. I will leave this for later.
3. Anime Package (DXD)
Hmm, wonder what this is. Doesn't look like a world travel ticket nor is it a summon. I'll check it later I guess.
4. Mysterious Watch (BOB)
Is this one of the things that BOB I will need to cope? I wonder what is so special about the watch?
5. Modified Soul Coin x05 (BOB)
Soul Coin? Sounds familiar. I think it's from D&D but I'm not sure, but if it's from D&D what is modified about it?
6. Incomplete and Modified Incubus Physiology (BOB)
Okay, this is just giving me the wrong vibes and why would I need it? It would be good for honey traps since I will have increased charm, and control of my pheromones and addictive fluids, but I don't know if it will give me talent for mental magic like illusions, hypnosis and telekinesis. Probably have a nerfed hypnosis more like persuasion.
7. Power Upgrade Card
Finally, my first consumable! I wonder how it works too. Can I only powers from the Gacha or can I also upgrade powers from character cards?
8. Golden Requiem (JJBA)
Hahaha, I got OP from the first day now I don't have to worry about-- wait a minute, I didn't get Giorno's template so I can't use it. Gacha what a troll you are.
9. Flerken (Marvel)
Ah, the love craftian monstrosity given a cat form. Basically an outer being working as a cat and inventory.
10. Inventory
Finally, I won't have to get worried about anything being stolen from me.
{ The power you obtained [Inventory] is compatible with the gacha essence, do you wish to merge}
'Yes' As soon as I agree a new tab opens. The tab is labelled Inventory and under it is a box made up of 20 squares. Even though the inventory has a limit the gacha still sees it as a power so that means I can upgrade it later on with a power upgrade card.
Well pulls weren't bad and I could have done worse so this is good I guess.
Roll again
1. Weakness Removal Card x03
Another consumable. Looks like this one is used to remove weakness from a power or an item. I wonder if you can use it on the summons?
2. Beth Harmon (Queens Gambit)
Queens Gambit? I think it's that Chess movie but I never watched it so I have no idea who she is.
3. Cheonmujiche (Ending Maker)
I remember this. From the manhwa ending maker, the original MC was born with this body plus another flaw that made him extremely weak. This gave the person extreme(or heavenly) talent for martial arts. It would make my synchronising with characters that have martial alignment easier. Taskmaster's template may take long since I would have to do a lot of physical work to speed up the synchronisation rate of his template.
4. Black Keys (Fate) x03
They are essentially charms used by agents of the Church to exorcise demons. They are meant to bind and/or seal spiritual phenomena (e.g. Vampires hunted by the Church), rather than hurt them. Fate is a messed-up Verse.
5. Senzu Bean x10 ( Dragon Ball)
The miracle beans of anime are able to heal anything apart from illnesses.
6. Hipokte Potion x08 (Tensura)
Another healing item but I don't know if this heals diseases like cancer.
7. Life Jewel
One of the cheapest items from League of Legends. Wearing can grant someone a small life recovery effect although small.
8. Super Soldier Serum (Marvel)
This is good. Using it on myself might be good but I won't. I will use it on my future subordinates although a limited version but I have to get the template of someone smart cause I don't trust anyone to research it apart from me and I also need to find a way to know if my subordinate ever betrays me and offers his blood to someone else to research the serum.
9. Azazel Gender Bender Gun (DXD)
Ugh. As an advocate of no gender-bending, this is disgusting, but I can use it as punishment and torture for people. Good, this is useful.
10. Dull Blade (Genshin Impact)
Arguably the most OP weapon in the game. I won't be able to use it cause I won't even be able to handle the sheer force and power that will radiate from the blade. What a loss.
Now for the last and final roll
1. Shiki Tohno (Fate)
I don't know much about fate but all I know is that he has the eye of death perception and that's all that matters even if I don't gain anything else.
2. Toji Fushiguro (Jujutsu Kaisen)
Lets gooooo!!! The dude that made jjk into a series. If not for bro dog-walking a group of teenagers jjk would be a lot different. Well, this card fixes my superhuman strength problems. Throwing an entire truck with one hand and a manhole like you are playing catch with your son is no joke, and doing it with only one hand is just more absurd.
3. Package: Yoriichi Tsugikuni (Demon Slayer)
An extremely talented OP Swordsman who was far too talented for his verse, Imagining him in somewhere like Bleach of One Piece gives me shivers. If he trained like his brother and was not all peace-loving Demon Slayer wouldn't have been an anime. The 'Package' part is what I have no clue what it means.
4. Iroh (Avatar)
Ain't no way. If you ever get isekaied to the Avatar universe, the most important on your to-do list is not to get strong but to have tea with this man. Again another character that if he was not so peace-loving, their verse wouldn't have been a show.
5. Cypher (Marvel)
I think his mutant ability is to comprehend every language there is be it human or non-human, also the reason why he can hack into any system or network no matter how advanced it is.
6. All For One (BNHA)
Wait the person or-- nope it's the ability. Ok, this is getting irritating. A cool ability but I can't use cause there are no quirks in this verse so this is useless unless I get a travel ticket to the BNHA verse.
7. Reed Richard (Marvel)
I think I got too many cards from Marvel, but hey I'm not complaining especially if it's from one of the smartest and scariest person in that verse. The dude almost destroyed his universe many times and was also very irresponsible about it and his marriage. Dear Susan deserves better.
8. Modified Egoless Symbiote x20 (Marvel)
An egoless symbiote, I have never seen that before. Maybe it's from a fanfiction of the Marvel Universe or an unknown Marvel Universe since there are infinite but in what way is it modified I would have to use it to find out.
9. Yukihira Jōichirō (Food Wars)
I think this is a good and bad idea since I don't want to see everyone naked when they eat my food but that also means I can make delicious cake sweets and cookies. This is the best card I have gotten so far.
10. Background Customisation Card x7
This allows me to customize a background for my summons. Thank God, I don't need to start forging documents. When I catch Batman's eyes which is definite I won't have to start getting worried about him questioning where they come from.
Now which card should I use first?
I'm obviously going to use Cheonmujiche since that gives me a heavenly talent for martial arts then Taskmaster since his martial arts will be crucial for this verse
Walking to the bathroom I looked at myself and again realised how weak I am. Thin, sickly pale, average in height and pimples. I haven't started my routine in both skin and muscle in this universe yet but in my past life, I was strict about it to the maximum. Even though I was lazy I wanted to change. Just like in my past life even though I'm not drop-dead handsome you could obviously see the potential to be a 10 out of 10 and I was cute as well so that gave me bonus points.
Materializing the two cards I wished to use them and they vanished. What followed was a warmth that almost made me moan in comfort and then it felt like I unlocked something, like a missing piece had been added to me and I had been enlightened.
Materialising my status in front of me to see my progress.

Woah, Taskmaster is already at 10% Cheonmujiche for the win. Looking at the mirror I could already see the changes. The slight addition of muscles, straighter posture and fewer pimples.
Well lucky me I guess. I should have a bath before my mom comes cause I know she will definitely kill me if she arrives and I haven't done so.
