Gacha Game Female Characters Become Obsessed with Me

It’s natural to recruit the 5-star first.

…Of course, like the protagonist who ran away.
Yohena was low priority in rerolling.

Appearance? She’s pretty. Of course, her chest is a bit small.
Personality? …She was kind. There’s a bit of a reversal charm.
Performance? She’s a 1-tier pure healer. She even has a buff skill.
Popularity? The number of lewd pics proved it.

Yet the reason for not taking her in rerolling was clear.

Because you can get her guaranteed from the main story after breaking through floor 10 of the tower.

The inevitable fate of a free character.
…In the past, I too got excited seeing the 5-star effect.
I almost threw my phone when I saw it was Yohena.

Feeling a bit guilty.
To the Sanctuary of Revelation.

“Yohena?”

Is she not here?
She needs to be here.

In this game, it’s not just about rolling gacha to get contracts, you have to find the character you want to recruit in the field.

In the worst case.
Despite getting a 5-star contract.
You might have to spend all day wandering around the field looking for the character, which is unfair.

Why did they make the system like this?
I don’t know either. It must be some philosophy of the creators.

“Here she is.”

Fortunately.
Yohena was deeply engrossed in reading in her room inside the sanctuary.

“Yohena?”
“Eek, eeeek…?!”

Yohena jumping up while still holding her book.
Her reaction is good. She has the qualities of a studio audience.

My eyes suddenly went to the book Yohena was clutching tightly.

[TUTORIAL GUIDE BOOK]

……

Right.

Most of the game functions were tutorialized with Yohena explaining everything.
So this is how hard she was studying behind the scenes.

“Ark…? That’s right! Perfect timing. I looked it up in this ‘Goddess’s Revelation’, and it says there are Revealers from other dimensions too? The Revealer from earlier must have been one from another dimension who came here by mistake? That’s why the Purification Tablet suddenly disappeared.”

After calming her startled heart.
Yohena spouts words like a machine gun again.

Although she was trying hard to smile, her voice was trembling slightly, unable to hide her anxiety.

Silently, I took out a piece of paper and held it out.

Yohena’s eyes widened.

“This is…? My hero contract…? How does Ark have this? Surely in the revelation…”

The surprised Yohena unconsciously accepted the contract.

At that moment.

As the contract emitted a bright light─
It transformed into two pairs of bracelets.

Eventually, one was fastened on my wrist.
One on Yohena’s wrist.

Then they disappeared, becoming light again.

[NEW!]
[(★★★★★) Saint of Revelation Yohena]

[Character Information]

Name: ‘Saint of Revelation’ Yohena (★★★★★)
Holy Attribute / Healer / Rear
Level: 1 / 20 (RANK 1)
Basic Skill: Light of Healing (LV.1)
Enhancement Skill: Blessing of the Stars (LV.1)
Ultimate Skill: [Unlocked]
…
Affection: [Insufficient authority. Cannot check.]
Exclusive Equipment: [Insufficient authority. Cannot check.]

And the information that appeared on the smartphone.

…There are many things I can’t see due to insufficient authority.
They’ll be unlocked gradually, right?

“Huh? Huh? Huh?”

Yohena broke down, unable to process the sudden change in situation.

Still, since she’s the most crucial character in the story.
It would be good to share with Yohena.

I explained my situation to her, appropriately phrased, except for the fact that this world is inside a game.

Yohena kept tilting her head in doubt, but.
When I showed her how I could take items out of the smartphone, she seemed to understand to some extent.

Then she flipped through the book for a while.

“…There’s no such story in the revelation…”

She said something typical of those who study by rote memorization.
Life is practical, you know.

“Anyway, let’s go.”

“Huh?”

“The tower. We need to go and check if the purification really works.”

As I was about to take Yohena with me.

“Wait!”

“?”

“The hood… Please wear it outside.”

“…? Okay.”

Why?
It’s uncomfortable with half my face covered.

Well, there must be a reason.

It’s a very obvious thing, but.
In this game, you could easily reach a certain floor even with 3-star characters.

The event occasionally held by users in the gallery.
In the ‘3-star challenge’, I was the one who cleared it the fastest and most efficiently.

In fact, even Yohena wasn’t necessary at this point.
One dealer is enough.
Of course, there was no reason not to use her, and having a buff lowers the spec cut, so it doesn’t matter.

Therefore, the destination.

The Meeting Tavern.

While 5-star characters like Yohena had somewhat fixed appearance locations.

3-star and 4-star characters gathered in random places like taverns, inns, or adventurer’s guilds.

But the character I’m going to meet now is probably in the tavern.

With that confidence, I moved my feet.
As I creaked open the door of the tavern and entered.

Fitting for the late evening, the smell of alcohol and boisterous noise was overflowing.

Of course.
Everyone’s unemployed right now.

According to the original setting, as the tower is conquered, heroes not belonging to the Revealer’s party also do something either inside the tower or in the outer fields.

Earlier.
The characters who came to buy or sell things while I was running the shop were examples of that.

The saint doesn’t seem to be familiar with such places.

“I’ll wait outside…”

She didn’t follow me in.
Well, it didn’t matter.

Fortunately, the person I was looking for soon caught my eye.

“Kyahah! Bartender! Another beer here!”

3-star. Archer Ari.

While some have splendid titles like Saint of Revelation or whatever befitting a 5-star SSR, 3-stars were mostly simple.

Taking in her characteristic red hair tied back.

“Excuse me, can we talk for a moment?”

I approached Ari, who was gulping down beer, and spoke to her.

Living up to her concept as a heavy drinker, Ari, who looked perfectly fine despite having stacked over ten beer mugs in front of her, smiled brightly, showing her canine teeth.

She’d be really charming if it weren’t for the smell of alcohol.

“Ark? What brings you here? Want to drink beer too?”

“…Let’s talk outside.”

I sighed and called her out.

“What’s this, what’s going on between you two?”
“So spring has come for Ari too~ I’m envious~”

Ignoring the chirping of her 3-star friends around, I grabbed Ari’s wrist and came out.

“Eh, Yohena was here too?”

“…Alcohol isn’t good for your body, Ari.”

“Hehe.”

So they know each other.
That’s possible.

My grand principle.
When telling someone important things, look them in the eye.

Taking off the deeply pulled hood, I looked straight into Ari’s eyes.

“Uh, uh, uhh…?”

Is it something to be so flustered about?

Then I held out the 3-star generic contract I had prepared in advance.

Ari is all I need. The rest aren’t necessary right now.
I need to collect them steadily as they’re materials needed for 4-star promotion.

I briefly caught sight of Yohena frowning as if something was uncomfortable.

I explained as I had agreed with Yohena earlier.

“The Revealer has some issues, so they’ve temporarily entrusted me with the task. I’ll be in your care for a while.”

I wondered if such a lie was necessary, but.
According to Yohena’s explanation earlier, heroes instinctively recognize the Revealer’s existence.

In other words.
Even if I claimed to be the Revealer while waving this smartphone around.
No hero would believe me.

A half-baked protagonist life.
It was a bit pitiful, but.
Well, as long as I can clear it, it’s fine.

Perhaps the alcohol was just starting to hit her now that she felt the cold wind.
Ari, with her cheeks flushed red, took the contract from my hand.

Just like with Yohena earlier─ The bracelets clanked like handcuffs.

[NEW!]
[(★★★) Archer Ari]

“I look forward to working with you, Ari.”

“Y-Yeah! Looking forward to it too…!”

Is it the power of the contract?
Her way of speaking seems a bit more docile than before.

Now it’s time to grow.

I started taking out Growth Elixirs from the inventory.

“Drink this.”

“Oh…! This is that Growth Elixir!”

I smiled contentedly watching Ari almost snatching it from my hand and gulping it down.

She drinks well.
She’s drinking it like some hangover cure.
Surely she won’t get diarrhea like I did.

“Here, there’s more. Drink slowly.”

“──Thanks!”

“Don’t talk, keep drinking.”

“…?”

First rank up.
It took 30 Lowest Grade Growth Elixirs to reach level 20.

Drink.
Drink and become stronger.

“Here you go. There’s more. Drink.”

“Cough, cough, j-just a moment…!”

“This is precious. Don’t spill it.”

As I was forcefully pouring potions into Ari like that, I suddenly turned my head.

“……”

I met eyes with Yohena, who wore a slightly disgusted expression.

Yohena shook her head.

I felt a bit sorry.
I should have left some for Yohena to drink too.
But there’s no need to level up the healer at this point.

Still, I should give her something, right?

After snatching the empty bottle from Ari’s hand and giving her a new one.
I rummaged through my inventory.

[Fragment imbued with Goddess’s power x5]

Hmm.
Let’s take out just one for now.

“Here. Don’t feel left out. I’ll take care of you soon too, Yohena. Take this for now.”

I handed her one of the generic affection items for holy attribute characters.

Yohena’s eyes widened.
She seemed quite pleased.

I should take these out and throw them to her bit by bit later when she grumbles.

“Hic, hic, cough, I-I drank it all…! I feel overflowing with power! Thank you so──”

“Oh. Then let’s break through now.”

“──?”

After confirming that she had normally reached level 20.
I handed Ari the materials needed for ranking up, such as Lowest Grade Wind Tokens and Growth Medals.

Ari’s expression became even stranger.

[Character Information]

Name: ‘Archer’ Ari (★★★)
Wind Attribute / Ranged / Rear
Level: 26 / 30 (RANK 2)

I couldn’t grow her level more due to lack of potions.
But this should be enough preparation.

“Cough, cough, cough……”

I saw Yohena patting Ari’s back as she struggled from excessive potion consumption.

They get along well.
But you know, good medicine tastes bitter.

Anyway, preparations are complete.

So.
Now it’s time to start climbing the tower in earnest.
