The Beauty Collector

Chapter 34: Surprise Gacha Roll



In the morning inside the bedroom of Zeno's apartment, Zeno could be seen sitting on his desk and currently drawing a picture of a young man RKO'ing an armored knight on his laptop.

When he finished his work he immediately sent it to the client who commissioned him for the pictures of some Isekai novel through email before he stood up from the chair and stretched his body.

"Finally done."

Zeno sighed as he shut down the laptop. Unexpectedly, he still keeps doing his illustration job from time to time even if it doesn't pay as much as his side jobs. He also came to like drawing after doing it for a while so that is the reason why he still doing it.

"Are you done, Master?"

Ezrah who was lying on his bed in the room with him looked up from the shounen manga in her hands when she noticed him standing up from a chair. She was waiting for him to finish his work before they could go together to the training room and have their daily spar.

"Yeah, I'm free now, let's go."

Zeno nodded before he walked out of the room while Ezrah quickly got up from the bed and followed him out after she put the manga in her backpack that she likes to carry around with other items inside.

On the way to the teleport point, they see Zestia sitting with Asia and Charmie in the living room. Zestia was sitting on the couch and looking at her reflection in the hand mirror as she fiddled with her blue bangs. On the other side of the couch, Asia and Charmie are learning about how to take care of the baby from their smartphones and various books.

"Zestia! Let's go, Master is done with his work already."

Ezrah called out to Zestia as the three girls on the couch turned to look at them.

"I understand."

Zestia quickly stood up and followed the two of them out of the living room after Zeno waved his hand with a smile to Asia and Charmie who also waved their hands back at him.

"So what are you doing earlier?"

Zeno turned to Zestia who followed behind him and asked her with curiosity. Zestia blushed a bit as she touched her bangs subconsciously. Ezrah whose curiosity was piqued also looked at her.

"Well, I was thinking about changing my hairstyle..."

Zestia said as she looked at Zeno like she wanted to hear his opinion about it. Zeno hums as he imagines her in various hairstyles.

"Long hair might suit you."

Zeno recalls that Xenovia seemed to have long hair in the past before she cut it short because it was inconvenient for her in a combat situation or something. He kind of wants to see what Zestia will look like with long hair.

"Is that so?"

Zestia muttered as she considered her Master's suggestion. Ezrah stroked her long brown hair too and then turned to look at him with the same expression Zestia made earlier.

"What about me, Master?"

She asks as she closes in on him, her breasts almost touching his back. Not one to hold back for no reason, Zeno suddenly stopped walking as Ezrah bumped into his back, her big breasts pressing against him. As his little prank succeeded, He smirked mischievously while feeling the softness on his back.

"Kya?! Mou~ Master!"

Ezrah yelps in surprise and quickly steps back from him with a flushed face. She was so embarrassed that her breasts touched her master.

"Hahaha... sorry about that."

Zeno apologizes with an insincere tone in his voice which causes Ezrah to pout with dissatisfaction. He smiles in amusement and then starts looking at her as he imagines her in various hairstyles.

"Hmm... a long braided or ponytail hairstyle might suit you."

Zeno stroked his chin as he suggested to her. He wondered if the two girls would change their hairstyle later.

"Hmph...!"

Ezrah turned her face away from him and crossed her arms with a little blush on her cheeks. Zeno smiled wryly as he didn't expect to see such a Tsundere behavior from her.

÷×÷×÷

The next day on top of a random building inside Kuoh Town, Zeno could be seen perching on the edge of the roof in his SS suit while looking at his smartphone. He was skimming through the news for any clue that might lead to one of his bounty targets after his daily patrol as usual.

"No luck huh..."

He sighed with disappointment from the lack of a clue. It became very boring these days after he and his maids wiped out the stray devils in town. Good thing that he still gets paid just for patrolling Kuoh Town a little bit.

He doesn't have to spend hours patrolling now since he and his maids had secretly installed the stray devil detection magic circles in all of the abandoned buildings and dark alleys.

If any of the stray devils manage to bypass the town barrier without detection then they will be discovered very soon since all the places they like to move around are already covered with the detection magic circles.

"Oh right! I forgot about the Gacha roll."

Zeno suddenly remembered about the Gacha that was ready for him to roll. Well, he didn't roll the Gacha for a year because the time in the time chamber doesn't count so he kind of forgot about it.

"System do your thing."

[ Rolling... ]

[ Congratulations! ]

[ You got Stand Awakening Gummy Bear! ]

"The what?"

Zeno was taken aback by the thing he got. After comprehending the thing he got Zeno ended up smiling wryly. What he got is simply the user-friendly version of the Arrow in the Jojo Bizarre Adventure.

This gummy bear will awaken the Stand of anyone who consumes it with only a 0.01% fatality rate, well, apparently someone actually dies from choking on it.

"Interesting..."

Zeno muttered as he grew excited. He then hurries back to the underground base while abandoning the town patrolling duty without remorse. He can't wait to have a Stand of his own. He wonders what his stand will look like and what ability and power it will have.

÷×÷×÷

In the seemingly endless white space of the time chamber, Zeno sits down on Invincible as he puts out a golden gummy bear from the system inventory in his hand. It looks no different from the normal one.

"Alright..."

Zeno exhaled and inhaled while preparing himself for what would happen next. He hopes that it will not be painful.

He then put the golden gummy bear in his mouth, it was tasteless on his tongue but with a similar texture. He then started chewing on it like a normal person, he was not a psycho who swallowed a gummy bear without chewing after all. Maybe that's how the 0.01% died, he thought while chewing.

After he swallows the gummy bear down his throat, he immediately feels a powerful pulse of Touki energy inside him. His eyes open wide in surprise as the black-purplish aura of his Touki explodes outward from his body and disintegrates Invincible from existence.

Zeno's body started levitating in the air as his aura expanded outward into an ominous sphere of black sun. Then a second later his aura suddenly implodes and retracts back inside his body. Zeno then fell back to the ground on his feet as his body swayed unsteadily, he felt quite disoriented as he shook his head.

"Ahh... that's quite a kick from a gummy bear."

He chuckled as he regained his senses and looked up, he then saw a faded humanoid silhouette start to form from nothing in front of him before a woman fully materialized into existence a moment later.

The woman in front of him was a tall and slender woman with long white hair and pale skin, she also held a large futuristic white sniper rifle in her hands. Zeno doesn't know what her eye color is as she wearing a black blindfold that hides them. She also has full lips that are red like a rose.

On her body, the woman was in a futuristic bodysuit and wearing a red shoulder cape. He also noticed that her arms and legs were mechanical.

He could feel the connection between him and the woman like she was part of him. He also instinctively knows her name and what she can do.

He smirked, very pleased with the woman in front of him. His own Stand, White Dream. The long-range and semi-autonomous Stand with the power to multiply her next attack power by 10% every second she has a target in her crosshair. By the way, her base attack power is comparable to a 155mm artillery shell.

Of course, she also has her weaknesses, such as a low rate of fire and everyone can see her, even a normal person can see her, unlike the usual Stand. But fortunately, only those with spiritual means can touch her.

"Well, well, well, quite a beautiful Stand I have."

Zeno said as he approached his Stand that was standing still like a mannequin. He takes a closer look around her with an intrigued expression. And immediately Zeno does the usual Zeno's things as he touches her breasts. They are soft despite being under the bodysuit, probably DXD logic affecting the creation of the Stand.

"So maybe that is why you have such a feminine appearance..."

Zeno muttered as he squeezed her breasts. He observed White Dream as she stood still without any visible reaction. He feels like he is being challenged by his own Stand despite White Dream not doing anything.

He then released her breasts from his grabby hands and tried to control her movement. He mentally commands her to move forward and she immediately obeys and steps forward with a click sound of her metallic foot stepping on the ground.

He then commands her to move around and do more complex things such as do a flip and spinning her rifle around like a staff. She follows every command perfectly and satisfies him. Now only the live combat remains to be tested.

"Well, that's for the future... for now, let's go introduce you to everyone."

Zeno said before he deactivated his Stand as White Dream disappeared. He then turned around and was about to leave the time chamber, but then he noticed something.

"Huh? Where the hell is Invincible?"
