Gacha Addict in a Matriarchal World

There is a word called ‘eobbo’.

Fundamentally, it originates from the Buddhist concept of karma, but it’s not anything complicated.

If you do wrong, you get punished. If you do good, you get rewarded.

This basic concept of rewards and punishments according to good and evil is like an instinct of humans to maintain the collective, and thus, karma has existed in every era, East or West, in various forms and names.

A person who accumulates good deeds in life goes to heaven, a warrior who dies bravely in battle enjoys eternal glory on the battlefield, or a writer who meets the daily quota sips whiskey bought after great determination and watches a VTuber stream all night.

At a glance, it seems like a very good concept. But remember this. People are always prone to evil, and there are no exceptions to karma.

Those who commit evil will burn in hell, cowards will rot away meaninglessly in the inferno, and writers who stayed up all night drinking and watching VTuber videos will suffer from the looming deadline.

And those who manipulate probabilities will likewise suffer from manipulated odds.

Like how my recent hundreds of gacha pulls were all filled a bunch of 1-stars.

My goodness. What a terrifying and dreadful statistic. Just thinking about it takes my breath away.

I thought I had gotten used to the ceiling-less system from the early Holy Grail War games, but I guess it was all a delusion.

No matter how many 4-star powers and skills I received, isn’t this too much?

In this medieval male fantasy world where entertainment is only about sex, to take away the thrill of gacha pulls.

But those colorless days end today.

Thud!

Two large sacks rolled across the desk with a heavy thud.

After escaping from Eve in a flash. I headed straight to Benny’s workshop, split everything exactly in half, played with Shadow, showed off a nipple patch I had slyly taken earlier by sticking it on the back of my hand, and when a horrified Benny chased me, I repelled her with a “No, please, stop” before returning to the Fairy and Silver Coin.

Ellie, who was nagging about how I kept wandering around despite almost getting seriously hurt, was silenced by the excuse that I went to buy some fruit. Only then did I lock myself in my room. That is the current situation.

“This is bliss….”

I caressed the heap of gold coins and Magic Stones with a voice of pure ecstasy.

Since I can use Magic Stones for gacha anyway, I gave Benny mostly cash, and kept most of the Magic Stones for myself, enjoying the tactile pleasure.

So smooth….

The top-grade Magic Stone was so beautiful that I admired it alone and took out the statue of the Goddess from my robe pocket.

Today, she seemed to have nothing special to say, or maybe she didn’t have the strength after exerting herself in the Labyrinth, as she spread her arms benevolently as usual.

“Yes. Even a goddess must have her own hardships.”

The Goddess of Love had been unable to intervene on the surface for the past thousand years because she was maintaining the Labyrinth.

But the Goddess of Love had intervened quite a bit for me.

Manipulating the gacha rates was an indirect intervention, so it was acceptable, but changing the pose of the fully upgraded Goddess Statue, now a holy relic, or telling me something in the Labyrinth that I can’t quite remember, is quite a direct intervention, isn’t it? ṜÁNổ𐌱ЁŠ

Of course, she must have overexerted herself. There might be some kind of side effect… There’s a very high probability that the confirmed bust gacha period will be extended.

“But if I spin this much, something will work out.”

Even for me, there is resistance to blowing a fortune worth 100 gold solely on gacha.

It’s an amount that could allow me to buy a full set usable throughout the middle layers, high-grade aura crafting methods, mana breathing techniques, or even a house in the overpriced Pangrave like Ellie did.

But I think normalizing gacha probabilities takes precedence over all of these.

I didn’t just vow to live comfortably and well-fed; I promised to root out the seeds of disaster I had sown with my own hands.

I can’t leave the gacha, the very source of my power, broken.

“Phew.”

Even if I have amassed this much money… No, is it because I’m thinking of using all this piled-up money that I’m getting nervous?

Taking a deep breath, I activated the gacha system.

Ding!

[Standard Draw]

-Consume cash or equivalent Magic Stones to randomly obtain items and skills ranging from 1 to 5 stars.

[1 Draw] [10+1 Draw]

NEW!

[Limited Draw]

-Consume cash or equivalent Magic Stones to randomly obtain items and skills ranging from 1 to 5 stars.

-The probability of obtaining 3-star or higher items doubles.

-The probability of obtaining masterpieces is halved.

-Special items and skills that can only be obtained through the limited draw exist.

-The price is ten times that of the standard draw.

-Time remaining: 23:59:37

[1 Draw] [10 Draws + 10 Standard Draw Tickets]

“What…!”

A limited draw here…?

To be honest, I had expected something like this to appear someday. After all, it was clearly labeled as a ‘standard’ draw.

The fact that it was specifically labeled as “standard” must mean there’s something special about it.

And now. The limited-time draw that I had been eagerly waiting for has appeared. The content was a bit different from what I had imagined.

“The price is 10 times higher? And the bonus for drawing 10 times is a standard draw ticket?”

Have they really lost their minds?

A standard draw costs 1 silver per time, and the 10+1 draw costs 10 silvers. With 1 gold, you can draw 110 times.

But for the limited-time draw, it costs 1 gold just to draw 10 times. You do get an additional 10 standard draws, but you would get that even if you spent 1 gold on standard draws.

In other words, even if you spend 1 gold, you only get 10 limited draws and 10 standard draws. A total of just 20 draws.

No matter how terrible the odds are, and even though this is a kind of penalty period due to past manipulations…

Ultimately, the most important thing in a draw is the number of times you can pull.

Even if the probability of drawing a 3-star or higher is doubled, isn’t it a loss if the number of gacha pulls is reduced to a tenth?

But despite that, my eyes couldn’t leave the limited draw.

Is the number of pulls really the most important thing in gacha?

If I had to choose between spinning a 1% chance 50 times or a 50% chance once, I would definitely choose the latter.

Could such logic also apply to limited draws?

It was said that the probability of a masterpiece appearing was reduced.

The masterpiece category is not bad. They are a kind of novelty item but their liquidity is guaranteed.

But honestly, it’s not a category I like.

From the start, isn’t this gacha system’s probability completely messed up?

Let’s say you sold a 3-star masterpiece item and obtained dozens of chances to roll again. Will a usable 3-star item emerge from among those dozens of tries?

It won’t. At least, it hasn’t so far.

So, even if it’s the same star level, it’s better to get a useless Power than a masterpiece.

After all, Power is definitely something you can use.

But the probability of drawing 3-stars or higher increases, while the probability of getting a masterpiece decreases?

It’s the same as saying the range of ‘effective hits’ broadens.

There are no pickups in the Goddess gacha, but if I had to compare, it’s like the probability of an unexpected character breaking through the pickup buff drops significantly.

Above all, the most concerning thing is the items and skills that only appear in limited draws.

This damn unfriendly gacha system doesn’t tell you what comes out.

However, I possess the memories of my past life. I still remember the resentment of missing out on a limited character and sulking every day for half a year until the rerun.

Limited characters are generally powerful. Especially if it’s the first limited pickup.

To me, this is common sense, truth, and as unshakable a premise as the cuteness of a platypus.

Moreover, the limited period is not even a week, but just a single day.

A limited gacha while the Goddess of Love is enduring side effects.

“It can’t be helped.”

No matter how much I think about it, there seems to be something here. It’s absolutely not that I’m enchanted by the word “limited”.

I’m not someone who, blinded by gacha, would obviously suffer a loss by pulling for a limited character. I spin the limited gacha chasing something unseen by others!

My wavering heart leaned to one side. No, perhaps it had already tilted when I saw the word “limited”.

What I needed was justification, and a bit of courage.

Erasing the last bit of reason within me, I squeezed my eyes shut.

“5-star! Let’s go!!!!”

I frantically pressed the limited gacha roll button.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

The alarm sounds echoed in my ears without rest. But it ended ten times faster than I had anticipated.

No matter how much I flicked my fingers, the system didn’t respond. An empty wallet.

And then, belatedly, junk spilled onto the bed, and a list floated before my eyes.

Ding!

Of course, at the beginning, everything was just 1-star.

Drawing 1-stars with ten times the amount of money was painful even for a chain gacha player like me, who had neither money nor a future….

This ended earlier than I thought. As expected, there seems to be some connection between the current state of the Goddess and the limited-time draw.

With a list that started to mix in 2-star items, my breathing grew heavier. I consciously regulated it as I continued to scroll down.

And then.

“EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!”

A shriek burst out of me involuntarily at the sight of the dazzling rainbow light.
