What?! You want me to become the Herrscher of Finality?!

Bai Mo, 19 years old, an average freshman, born into an ordinary family, and an only child with both parents alive.

Due to his parents' frequent business trips, Bai Mo had been living alone, usually spending his time playing games, watching anime, and listening to music—a typical NEET.

Every day was the same routine, like completing daily tasks. Aside from attending classes, he played games. And since it was summer vacation, Bai Mo had completely let himself go, spending his days glued to his computer.

Today was no different. Bai Mo turned on his computer and sequentially clicked on the icons for Genshin Impact, Honkai Impact 3rd, and Arknights.

"Ah, a beautiful day starts with seeing my waifus! Since that's the case, let's do a bit of spending!"

Looking at the 60,000 yuan his parents had just sent for his monthly allowance, Bai Mo felt his life was full of hope!

Not having the characters and weapons he wanted? Impossible. With a single 648-yuan pull, he was bound to get something!

Expertly opening the recharge interface, Bai Mo confidently scanned the 648-yuan recharge QR code for each game and, without any hesitation, confirmed the payment.

"Great! Weekly task complete! Now it's time for the much-anticipated gacha session! Let's see how deep these new pools are!"

With practiced motions, Bai Mo prepared his gacha ritual. After a series of complex and mysterious gestures, he clicked the mouse to start pulling.

Strangely, all his favorite characters were suddenly featured in each game's banner today. Were they planning to milk some money before disappearing?

Despite his thoughts, nothing could stop Bai Mo from pulling.

"Take a hundred years of my life! I want something from each banner!"

As the gacha began, Bai Mo loudly performed the ritualistic chant that everyone uses. Though the success rate is low, it's worth a try since it doesn't actually shorten your life. It's a win-win.

Besides, he usually had terrible luck, always hitting the pity counter for new characters. Who would believe a chant could actually work?

The results were:

Supply Box: (Herrscher of Flamescion x1) (Herrscher of Flamescion x2) (Herrscher of Flamescion x3)... (Herrscher of Flamescion x10)

Operator Recruitment: (Passenger x1) (Surtr x1)... (Passenger x5) (Surtr x5)

Wishes: (Raiden Shogun x1)... (Raiden Shogun x6) (Kujou Sara x4)

"..... Did… did I just succeed?"

Bai Mo slumped in his chair, staring in disbelief at his gacha results. Wasn't he supposed to have terrible luck? Normally, he couldn't pull anything good. How did today turn into a full success?

The harsher the chant, the better the results, huh? If this were true, he just paid a hundred years, which means -19 years, assuming he would even live to 100.

"Calm down... this is a law-abiding society. Trust in science. Superstitions are just tricks for kids. This is all a coincidence, just a coincidence!"

As Bai Mo was still convincing himself that it was all a coincidence, a sudden lightning bolt struck the walnut tree in his yard. Miraculously, the tree wasn't harmed at all, nor was the surrounding grass.

This unexpected thunderbolt, like a special effect, had only sound and shape.

Even so, it scared Bai Mo half to death. It was a sunny day with no rain, a perfectly clear day.

"Good grief! Is this some kind of death omen? Are you really doing this to me?"

"Can I give it back? I'll even delete my account! I'm still young, I haven't even inherited my family's mine yet!"

Upon seeing lightning strike his house on a clear day, Bai Mo couldn't stay calm. He immediately ran out of his bedroom, heading to the basement for cover.

He had a nagging feeling that if the lightning struck him, the result wouldn't be as benign as it had been for the walnut tree.

Just as Bai Mo was about to open his bedroom door, the second bolt of lightning struck, hitting him directly.

A flash of white light filled the room, and Bai Mo vanished. In the blink of an eye, he found himself in a place similar to the Main God Space, except instead of a single light sphere, there were two.

"Damn, this has to be a joke. It really struck me! Why do I faintly hear the words 'payment successful'?"

"This is definitely messing with me! And what is this place?"

One moment, he was at home, and the next, he was struck by lightning and brought to this place. Bai Mo couldn't process it all at once and could only mutter complaints while examining his surroundings.

Could this be the legendary Main God Space? Can lightning really cause you to travel to another world?

Could performing a superstitious ritual while drawing cards in a gacha game really result in being struck by lightning?

Bai Mo weakly complained about everything. It was all so sudden and he wasn't mentally prepared for this. Although he had read many novels about transmigration, experiencing it firsthand felt completely absurd.

But reality was what it was. No matter how much he complained, nothing would change. Moreover, his parents were still alive, unlike many other transmigrators who had no attachments. Who knew if he could ever return home?

With a mindset of adapting to his circumstances, Bai Mo began to seriously examine the space, noticing the two light spheres in the middle.

For some reason, the light spheres gave Bai Mo a warm feeling, like a heater on a cold winter's day—not too hot, not too cold, just right.

As Bai Mo was lost in this comforting sensation, the two light spheres suddenly flew towards him. Instinctively, Bai Mo tried to dodge, but he realized the spheres were locked onto him. No matter where he moved, they followed at a steady pace.

Scared out of his wits, Bai Mo ran for his life...

Eventually, exhausted, Bai Mo collapsed on the ground, and the light spheres caught up to him. They hovered nearby, vibrating slightly as if mocking his lack of stamina.

"Alright, alright! I give up! Do whatever you want!"

Panting, Bai Mo glared at the spheres above him, adopting a posture of resigned acceptance.

And of course, he made an international gesture of goodwill.

The spheres had slowed down deliberately as they approached, which was just plain sneaky!

Suddenly, as soon as Bai Mo finished speaking, the two spheres turned into points of light and enveloped him.

Ding!

"[Herrscher Development System at your service!]"

Ding!

"[Dimensional Chat Group at your service!]"

As the points of light surrounded him, two mechanical voices echoed in Bai Mo's mind.

It seemed he had encountered the classic transmigration plot, but the process was genuinely nerve-wracking.

Feeling somewhat relieved, Bai Mo realized that if these systems intended to harm him, they would have done so already. There was no need for this elaborate show. For now, he decided to take things one step at a time.

About ten minutes passed, and the systems didn't display any more messages. Bai Mo was left in a staring contest with the light spheres.

Ding!

"[Herrscher Development System loaded.]"

Ding!

"[Dimensional Chat Group loaded.]"

After another three minutes, the systems displayed more messages.

"[Herrscher Development System: Mission activated. Unlock all powers of Herrschers to become a complete Herrscher of Finality.]"

"[Currently available to unlock: Herrscher of Reason]"

"[Dimensional Chat Group: Mission activated. Join the chat group and travel through dimensions to create your story.]"

A series of messages appeared in Bai Mo's mind, and he slowly began to process them.

"Alright, let's unlock the Power of Reason and join the Dimensional Chat Group."

After a while, Bai Mo made his decision. Things had already reached this point, and it seemed to have no immediate downside.

"[Unlock failed. The host's physique is incompatible with Honkai energy transmission. Would you like to modify your physique?]"

"[Dimensional Chat Group loading… Please wait.]"

"What? Modify my physique? Isn't Honkai energy supposed to be omnipotent? Are male bodies really that unsuitable?"

"Wait, will I be turned into a girl? Can I refuse this?"

Realizing his body might be modified, Bai Mo panicked. Although Honkai energy typically didn't favor male bodies, there were exceptions. Bai Mo decided to gamble on it.

"System, will I be turned into a girl?"

With a shred of hope, Bai Mo humbly asked the system, but it ignored him, leaving him confused.

"This is bad luck, getting stuck with a system like this."

Sighing, Bai Mo gave up trying to communicate with the system.

"I'll sacrifice ten years of my life to stay a man!"

With a resigned resolve, Bai Mo decided to try his luck again, hoping for a miracle.

After responding to the system and agreeing to modify his physique, the points of light surrounding Bai Mo merged into his body, causing him to feel dizzy before he passed out.

After an unknown amount of time, the Dimensional Chat Group started to show activity, while Bai Mo still showed no signs of waking up.

Ding!

"[Loading complete. You have been automatically added to the Dimensional Chat Group. Please begin your journey.]"

"[Notice! New member Bai Mo has joined the chat.]"

CakeLover: "A new member has joined! Everyone, come and welcome them! @all members."

ApplePieLover: "Yay! Welcome, newbie. By the way, Doctor, are you always watching the group chat? You always welcome new members instantly. Don't tell me you're slacking off?"

RichestShrineMaiden: "Welcome, newbie. How about sending a red envelope to celebrate? I wouldn't mind receiving one privately! And slacking off is a fine tradition!"

CakeLover: "I'm not slacking off. I just happen to see the messages. And you're right, Reimu, slacking off is indeed a fine tradition."

Kevin Kaslana: "...Welcome."

ApplePieLover: "You don't make money by slacking off. I spent all my salary on apple pies this month. Why isn't the newbie talking? Are they scared?"

RichestShrineMaiden: "Maybe. Kevin's always so cold, it might be overwhelming for them."

As messages piled up to over 99+, Bai Mo seemed to wake up. No, to be precise, he wished he could faint again.

Bai Mo's previously short black hair had turned into long white locks. His black eyes were now wine red, and his height shrank from 180 cm to 170 cm.

His clothes had somehow been replaced with a black and white dress, making him look entirely like a girl.

Seeing his transformation, Bai Mo's mind went blank. His cursed bad luck had turned him into a girl.

After an hour of inner turmoil, Bai Mo forced himself to calm down. There was no use getting overly emotional.

After the modification, Bai Mo unlocked the Power of Reason, and even without it, he felt his new body was much better than his old one.

During that hour, Bai Mo also learned that his appearance had been modified to resemble Aslaug from Honkai Impact 3rd.

Regret wouldn't help now. Bai Mo could only accept his new reality and hope for a chance to turn back into a man.

"Life is full of challenges! Don't be sad. Always look forward!"

Bai Mo stood up, trying to cheer him- no, herself up.

Ding!

"[Herrscher Development System: Congratulations on acquiring a suitable body for Honkai energy. Now, please venture into various dimensions to unlock more powers!]"

Ding!

"[Dimensional Chat Group: Host's body conditions met. Preparing for random dimensional transmission.]"

"[Honkai Impact 3rd]"

"[Arknights]"

"[Genshin Impact]"

"[Gensokyo]"

"[Onmyoji]"

At this moment, the system's notifications indicated that Bai Mo's new life was about to begin...
