Lotta new stuff!

30 litres. That's how much blood he gathered in the past few months.

Now, that he finally remembered about it, Konrad walked over to the Gacha Machine.

It was time to draw!

--------

his thoughts were still wandering around the amulet, but he steeled himself and grabbed the bucket of blood.

with a steady stream, Konrad carefully poured the liquid into the tank, the metalic stench of blood not bothering him in the slightest after months of experiments.

One liter...Two liters...Five liters...Twenty liters...Thirty.

The Blood in the tank was almost shimmering through the crystalline surface of the container, making Konrad wonder if the Mana inside of it was trying to get out.

with great anticipation, Konrad carefully pulled the lever so that the extendable blade couldn't pierce his hand once again...

A clicking sound could be heard as the blood started to disappear into an unknown location, soon stoping with only twenty liters of it remaining in the tank. Apparently the Gacha takes the biggest amount of blood possible every time the lever is pulled.

Soon enough a prize ball rolled out of the hole and Konrad grinned. It was a striped black ball alright!

----------

[} Space storage +1 {]

It was another increase in his space storage. But even though he already had it before, Konrad wasn't unhappy. His philosophy was after all 'The more storage you have, the better' And he got a skill in the first draw of the day. Maybe it's his lucky day?

Konrad used the skill orb to increase his inventory, and looked at the next reward that waited for him inside of the prize hole.

A black ball twinkled in the omnipresent light of this subdimmension, just waiting for Konrad to pick it up. He did so and read the text that appeared.

[} Common Gemstone Draw X1 {]

'Huh? That's new..' Thought Konrad.

'what does it do?' He thought while calling up his observe skill.

[• Reward Orb (common) - Common Gemstone Draw •]

| Rarity - Common

| description - A magical reward from the { ¶0>|¥#¶∆¢π∆ }.

This particular Orb grants the person using it, one, random, mana conducting gemstone of a lower quality.

______

'This...Huh i just realized that I never used observe on a prize before opening it. Not much info but I guess it's useful. Probably most information is restricted anyway but it's still somehow informative.

Now i know at least, that the black balls are common rewards.

I wonder if It's a coincidence that I got a 'gemstone draw' shortly after learning their usage...' Konrad thought.

In the end he just shrugged and put the orb into his inventory to check it out later. He had a lot of orbs to open and shouldn't let his research mind distract him again.

The next reward was yet another common Space storage. He just used it and took the next prize from the hole.

Next It was a golden ball, that to Konrad's bemusement was ANOTHER space storage. He couldn't decide if he was so lucky or so unlucky there, but it was five more cubic meters of storage space so whatever.

After he used the golden Space Storage orb, what fell into his hands was another Lesser Health Potion that he opened and put into the inventory beside the old medium potion.

Konrad was at the sixth reward when he found something entirely new and exciting from a second golden orb in a row.

[} Random Lesser Strengthening {]

The name said a lot by itself, yet not much at the same time, but it still excited Konrad so he used observe to learn more.

[• Reward Orb (Rare) - Random Lesser Strengthening •]

| Rarity - Rare

| description - A magical reward from the { ¶0>|¥#¶∆¢π∆ }.

Upon usage This particular Orb grants the person using it, a slight improvement in a random aspect of his being. (+1 point to a random statistic.)

"What are you?! A Rare Candy?!" Konrad exclaimed and snorted from the comparison That wasn't even very good.

'But seriously. A stat increase? i can actually find a stat increase? Awesome! Alright let's check it out!' He thought.

Konrad checked his status and grinned seeing the Space Storage already in the thirteenth cubic meter.

"Now for the stat boost..." He said and grabbed the prize. It transformed into a small green pill when he moved it closer to his face, so he guessed that it had to be consumed.

#GULP#

"Huh... I don't feel any...AGH!" He started screaming, only to realize that the pain was gone after a second. He probably became used to the extreme pain following the usage of most things he got in this place.

He laughed awkwardly thankful that no one saw his pathetic screams and once again called observe.

'Huh! Perception was rised by a point! that's probably why most of the pain was focused on the eyes, ears, nose and skin. Now that I think about it...my eyesight is even better than before! And i used to wear glasses! Is it only now that i realized, that i didn't use them since using the health potion? Oh well. all this research and i didn't realize something like that happened. that's just to prove that there's still place for improvement.'Konrad thought.

Quiet content with the outcome Konrad returned back to the prize opening.

soon enough fourteen prizes were opened with four of them being golden, two being striped black and one being striped gold. The rest of them was of course the common black prize.

(Common - Black)

[} Lesser Mana Potion +5 {]

[} Mithrill Ore 10kg {]

[} Lesser Health Potion {]

[} Common Gemstone Draw X1 {]

[} Mithrill ingot 5kg {]

[} Mana Capacity +10 {]

[} Adamantite Ore {]

[} Cooking Grimoire {]

(Common Skill - Striped Black)

[} Low health regeneration (x2) {]

[} Lesser Mana affinity {]

(Rare Skill - Striped Golden)

[} Mana regeneration (x2) {]

The rewards were crazy. Just another Health Regeneration Skill was in his opinion worth all this blood, and he even got something better! Lesser Mana Affinity, according to observe, made it slightly easier to train his Magic! And Mana regeneration as the name said, doubled his entire Mana regeneration! if that was a rare skill then what would it's legendary equivalent do?!

He also got some mithrill that he had expected to exist and Adamantite that was a completely new material for him, and a very high ranking one too.

Also His Mana capacity rised to 51 points.

Now the weirdest among them was actually the thing called Cooking Grimoire.

for one thing, the book was empty, yet observe said a completely different story. It hinted about magic and blood so Konrad did the only thing he could think of. He cut his hand and put it on the cover while pushing his Mana into the book. The book then glowed with red light and Konrad felt as if something foreign entered his thoughts, but the intrusion soon disappeared.

Only then Konrad registered that the book was also nowhere to be seen.

He became alarmed, worrying that the book was destroyed but as soon as he thought about finding the book, it suddenly appeared right in front of him, slowly hovering in the air.

"Huh... that's curious...very curious..."
