Gacha Game Female Characters Become Obsessed with Me

Chapter 3 - Inventory



Fortunately, my hand was intact.
If it had been a phone explosion accident often seen in the news, my hand would have been reduced to rags.

As I was calming my startled heart.

Yohena approached aggressively again and dangled from my collar.
She’s short.

“No, no, Ark, what did you do? The Purification Tablet? Where? Where did it go?”

Unlike her dialogue in the game.
And the innocence felt from her appearance.
Yohena was quite impulsive.

“I don’t know either.”

“Ark, you blew it up…!”

I didn’t touch anything.
I just looked at it.

It’s a bit unfair, but…

I couldn’t say there was no connection to what I had done.

I recalled some of the messages I had just seen.

Unauthorized access.
Account deleted.

The meaning is clear.
…The protagonist has run off for the next reroll.

And.

Nearby device found. Pairing.

“Eek?!”

“Let me see it for a moment.”

With a flash of intuition, I retrieved my smartphone that Yohena had taken earlier.

Fortunately, no strange messages appeared on my smartphone…

[‘Last Felix (DEBUG)’ app installation complete.]

No, there was a change.

Next to the ‘Shop Owner Add-on’ that was originally installed.
A very familiar game icon had appeared with a somewhat suspicious suffix.

But.

[NOW LOADING….. (0%)]
[DEBUG: Data collection required.]

When I tried to run it.
It was in a state where no operation was possible except for an incomprehensible loading screen.

“What is it? Can you see something? Is it perhaps a revelation? Is it a revelation?”

Yohena’s bouncing appearance.
For some reason, it felt like a little sister from next door.

“Eek…?”

Without realizing it, I patted her head.

And then, squeezing out the maximum amount of acting ability.

“Ugh, when I saw that light earlier, my head……”

I pretended to be in pain.

Whether my acting was effective.
Or whether she showed her saint-like side.

Yohena quickly found her composure.
Of course, her face was slightly flushed, as if she hadn’t completely calmed down.

“…I see. Ark must be very confused too.”

And then.

Suddenly, she clapped her hands.

What? Why is she doing that?

“That’s right! The revelation. There was a revelation. …Ark. Until I tell you separately, please don’t tell people about the Revealer’s disappearance just now. Especially not to the heroes. Understood? It’s a promise, okay?”

After spitting out words like a machine gun.
She forcibly grabbed my hand and made me press my thumb as a seal.

Yohena disappeared like a storm.

…Was she originally this kind of character?
It’s refreshing, though.

Anyway, to cool my dizzy head.
And to solve the important matter I’ve been putting off until now.

I tensed my stomach.
And.

“Status window!”

……

But nothing happened!
I was deflated…

“Status!”
“Information!”
“I have awakened to a life of leisure!”

There was no response to other standard commands either.

It seems the only thing I can rely on is my smartphone.

I sighed.

Click─

Just in case a new encounter like Yohena occurs, I locked the shop door in advance.

Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud.
Clatter──

I summoned all the items that could be bought from the Revealer Shop and arranged them on the floor.

I stacked them neatly in the empty cabinet.

“Hmm.”

Come to think of it.

Experience potion.
Officially called Growth Elixir.

What would happen if I drank the potion that characters drink for leveling up?

If I’m treated as a character too.
Couldn’t I conquer the tower with just my fists by drinking the potions alone?

A man’s romance surges.
This is a fateful encounter.

Without hesitation, I opened a potion and gulped it down in one shot.

“Ugh.”

It tastes bad…

But it seems to have some effect, my stomach is churning as if a signal of growth is coming.

Gulp gulp. Gulp gulp…

After drinking about four bottles.

Significant, changes, began, to, occur, in, my, body.

“Urrrgh…!”

I’m screwed.

Bathroom, where’s the bathroom!!!

After experiencing a stormy time.
With a pale face, I came to a conclusion.

It had no effect on me…

Without any beneficial effects.
It only gave me severe side effects that tormented me for well over an hour.

Operation One Punch Man ends its service here.

Then it means I have to conquer the tower by borrowing the power of characters like in the original game.

While Yohena might cooperate if I somehow persuade her since she’s seen something.

A pure healer without any attack skills, Yohena alone can’t break through the tower.

If there’s any clue for now.

“It’s the quests.”

Ignoring the debug or whatever for now.
The duties I have to do as a shop owner.

Although tower conquest was plastered all over as a condition.
Still, it’s an ability given to me, so I need to use it to understand it accurately.

The muscle memory trained by convenience store part-time jobs.
It will help in this bizarre situation.

Opening the locked shop door, basking in the brightly pouring sunlight.

I started preparing to welcome customers.

“No dragon scales? None? Hmm……”
[The customer was not satisfied.]

“I brought slime fluid from the forest!”
“Oh, let’s see, so, slime fluid……”
“Ark, you idiot! It’s 10 gold!”
“Is that so? Here you go.”
“Kufufu, you’re really an idiot!”
[You were ripped off.]
[Popularity increased by 1, but reputation decreased by 1.]
[The customer was satisfied.]

“Give me one lizard skin.”
“We have it in stock. That’ll be 50 gold.”
[The customer was satisfied.]

“Haah……”

Self-employment. It’s not easy.
It’s no comparison to convenience store part-time jobs.
I miss the POS machine…

Customers brought all sorts of miscellaneous items to sell.
And they made a fuss about buying miscellaneous items I’ve never heard or seen before.

Relying on a very thick book under the counter that listed the types of materials, purchase prices, and selling prices.

After suffering for several hours, I was able to complete all the daily quests.

If there’s a point where job satisfaction increases.

It was that I could freely see the real-life versions of 3-star, 4-star playable characters─ the heroes.

Thanks to the setting that only women can become heroes, my eyes were happy.
As expected of a beautiful girl zoo game. The performance is definitely there.

“Excuse me, can I have ten elf arrows?”
“We’re sold out. And we’re closing now.”

After turning away the last customer who came.

Bang. I closed the door.
Click. I locked it.

[Shop Overview]
[Total Level: 1]
[Reputation: 12 / 100 (Very Bad)]
[Cumulative Popularity: 7 (★)]
[Number of Workers: 0]

It was a very slight growth.
At this rate, the core quest.
When will I achieve 30 or more reputation?

Time could solve it, but.
The problem was that time wouldn’t wait for me.

Solving problems as a shop owner.
It seemed I needed to approach it more long-term.

“Haah……”

While sighing.
I put the smartphone down on the counter.

At that moment.

Suddenly, a white light flickered, and a gold coin rolling around on the counter was sucked into the smartphone.

“…What?”

Surprised, I looked at the smartphone screen.

[NOW LOADING….. (5%)]
[DEBUG: Data collection required.]
[LOG: Inventory function has been unlocked.]

The loading gauge of the debug app I hadn’t closed earlier had gone up.
And a new button had been added below.

Inventory.

When I pressed the button.

[Inventory]

Slime Fluid x3
Lowest Grade Growth Elixir x5
Growth Medal x1
3-star Generic Hero Contract x9
5-star ‘Saint of Revelation’ Yohena Exclusive Hero Contract x1

Items that the protagonist would have left behind while clearing the tutorial.
And while pulling gacha were in the inventory.

…Using the same method as when using the Revealer Shop.

Thud.
Flutter──

A piece of paper emitting a rainbow-like brilliance floated gently into my grasp.
Right after.

[LOG: Character Information function has been unlocked.]
[LOG: Codex function has been unlocked.]
[DEBUG: Permissions are not perfect. There are restrictions on using some functions.]

“Hmm.”

I think I get it roughly.

In other words.

The ability that the original Revealer had exploded like pieces of a soul orb and flew everywhere.

And collecting them seems to be the debug.

A thrill ran through my brilliant brain.

I saw a breakthrough.

Points gathered through shop operation could be exchanged for various benefits in the ‘Point Shop’.

[Point Shop]

Reset daily sales quantity of Revealer Shop (100 points)
Reset weekly sales quantity of Revealer Shop (500 points)

Permanently increase customer trade satisfaction (2,000 points)

Expand shop premises (5,000 points)

While upgrading abilities is important.
Reset sales quantity.

Using that function to copy growth resources with a click.
Use that to grow heroes vigorously.
And solve the ultimate problem by conquering the tower.
Achieve a peaceful life that no one rushes.

It’s a perfect process.

Moreover.

Since I could collect divine stones from both the shop and the first clear rewards when conquering the tower.

It means I can roll gacha diligently too!

“Hehehe.”

The goal was firmly set.

A faithful and diligent shop owner by day.
A Revealer (proxy) conquering the tower by night.

When a person makes up their mind, they should act immediately.

Clatter──

After sweeping all the growth resources piled in the cabinet into the smartphone and putting them in the inventory.

I left the shop.
