My name is Aditya. I am a seventeen-year-old who used to live in Kurukshetra, Haryana, and, of course, an orphan. Life was ordinary until a tragic accident took me away from the modern world—only to be reborn in a time I had only read about in history books: the Mahabharata era.

As for how I got to this conclusion? Well, the answer to that question lies with the man-god sitting far away from me with a mischievous smile on his handsome face—Lord Krishna.

It seems my memories awakened at a significant moment: the Swayamvara of Draupadi. Standing amidst an assembly of kings and warriors, I watch as Karna is insulted and humiliated for his lower caste. The tension in the air was palpable, and I realized that I was witnessing one of the most pivotal events in the Mahabharata. My heart raced with both excitement and dread. But as I tried to process this, something even stranger happened—a voice echoed in my mind.

[Welcome, User! You have activated the Gacha System.]

What on earth? Or rather, what in the Mahabharata? Before I could even fully comprehend the situation, I felt a strange pull within me, like an invisible force connecting me to something far greater. The system interface appeared in front of my eyes, listing various abilities, weapons, and companions—all locked behind a gacha mechanism.

Apparently, I had been reincarnated not just as a mere observer but with a cheat ability straight out of a video game. The Gacha System allowed me to draw random skills, weapons, or even templates from the grand pool of every mythological lore. But there was a catch: each draw required "Fate Points," and earning those points meant altering the events of this world.

As I stood there, watching the unfolding drama with Karna, I realized that I was no longer just a bystander. I had the power to change history, for better or worse. But meddling with destiny in such a grand tale came with unimaginable consequences. What if I anger the gods? What if I change the fate of heroes like Arjuna, Karna, or Bhishma? The weight of it all hit me like a thunderbolt.

Still, one thing was certain—I couldn't let things play out the way they did in the original story, not if I had the power to make things right. With the Gacha System at my side, I had the chance to rewrite the Mahabharata itself.

But I needed to be cautious. Lord Krishna’s knowing gaze seemed to pierce through me as if he already knew about my unique circumstances. Was he testing me? Guiding me? Or simply waiting to see how my actions would shape the future?

Then let's start with this event itself.

That Time I Got Reincarnated With Gacha System In Mahabharata

[Aditya's POV]

"Do you have a way to contact Athena and Hestia?"

Artemis and Aphrodite exchanged glances before Artemis spoke first. "Yes, they are dying to hear from you. Might rush here if you call for them."

Aphrodite leaned against me, her fingers tracing idle patterns on my arm. "Especially Hestia. She never stopped believing you'd return."

That hit deep. Hestia had always been the heart of our little group—the warmth that held us together. Even when the world turned against me, she had stayed steadfast.

"How much time will it take for them to arrive if you call for them? You know coming from one pantheon to another," I asked with a serious expression. Crossing pantheons wasn't a trivial matter, especially given the power struggles among the gods.

Artemis frowned slightly. "For Hestia, not long. She exists in all sacred flames across realms—she can travel almost instantly if she chooses."
