NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 89: Bonding Time With Lyra Pt 3
The massive screen lit up with a burst of colorful lights, and a video sequence took us flying through space at impossible speeds, dazzling both Lyra and me. Planets, stars, and everything flew past us, making Lyra cheer. The background music had an upbeat and adventurous tone, adding to the excitement of the moment.
Suddenly, a massive entity came into our sight like nothing I had ever seen. The being was the embodiment of space, its entire body made up of stars swirling in a galactic storm. The being's eyes were two black holes, and as we slowed, I could feel the being looking at me.
Once we stopped, the Star God thing put its hands together, and two massive dice appeared. As it started to shake its massive hands, another screen came into view, blocking most of the big guy out. The screen displayed a rotating 3D model of me, showcasing different outfits and accessories.
"Haha! This is amazing, Leon! Look at all those cool outfits!" Lyra exclaimed, her eyes wide with fascination.
The video sequence transitioned smoothly between various outfits, each accompanied by a brief description and a set of features. The holographic display presented the potential prizes in a visually appealing manner, making the process feel like a grand event.
As the virtual wheel spun, it slowed, and the Star God tossed his dice in the background. Somehow, they came out of the display and landed on the table beside my bed. Instantly, I got a notification, but I pushed it aside to see what the dice said.
3 and 6, but above the dice was a small message.
[Less than 15 is a Miss]
I frowned and then laid back to look at the screen. It landed on a specific outfit, and the screen zoomed in to highlight the chosen reward.
Prize Display:
(Common) Casual Tracksuit Leon Set
Set Includes:
- (Common) Casual Stylish Track Jacket - A comfortable red jacket with a sleek design. Others see you in a slightly better light while wearing this.
- (Common) Casual Sprint Track Pants - Black Stylish and breathable pants for a relaxed look. Slightly increases your speed while worn
- (Common) Casual Jump Sneakers - Trendy sneakers for casual outings. Slightly Increases your ability to jump.
"Casual is right!" I laughed, but Lyra shook her head.
"I think it looks really good on you, and it is pretty good for a common item to have any ability," Lyra explained, and I nodded as I closed the item screen.
As I did, Hama reappeared with the Star God still in the background watching me, and holding his dice.
"Woah! How did you get so lucky?!" Hama exclaimed, and I frowned. I mean, the suit was nice, but it wasn't anything to cheer about.
"What do you mean?" I asked, but Hama somehow came out of the screen and went over to point at the dice that were still on my table.
"Have you not checked your notification?! These are a Divine item known as The Dice of Fate. They are a very powerful item that can allow you to bend certain fates in or against your favor. Getting these means that Gachica, Fate Spinner of Chance has blessed you," Hama explained, and I opened up the notification.
[Congratulations! Gachica, Fate Spinner of Chance has blessed you!]
[Divine Skill gained: Dice of Fate Level 1: At will, summon the Dice of Fate to bend the fate of your current situation. If the results are 15 or less, Fate will bend against you. Each time you roll the Dice of Fate, gain 1 point to level to gain more dice and better odds. These odds and extra dice also can be used during Character Lottery pulls to affect Gachica's results. Roll again if doubles.]
Dice rolls:
3-15 Fate bends against you. Depending on how close to a total of 3 you get, the worse Fate bends against you.
16-50 Fate Bends Slightly in your favor. (Bends against you at level 3)
51-250 Fate Bends generously in your favor. (Bends against you at level 7)
251-10000 Fate Bends completely in your favor.
10001+ Destiny pushes Fate aside to intervene, causing the dice to evolve. This can only happen at level 10.
Current Level 1: 0/1 Until Next Level: Increase the number of dice to roll to 3, but only count 2.
"Wow! Those look really amazing!" Lyra exclaimed, and I nodded, but I wasn't too sure about this.
Yeah, they were a divine item or skill, but the first few times that I used them would most likely turn Fate against me. I would have to tread carefully when using them, that was for sure.
"We will see," I smiled, and turned back to the lottery where Hama had returned.
"Are you ready to spend another point?" Hama asked, a sign appearing with the button to start another spin in His floating hand.
I was about to reach out when Hama pulled the sign back with a smile. "Why don't you let Lyra try?"
I blinked at Hama in surprise. "She can?" I asked, and Hama nodded.
I didn't have to even turn as Lyra's little hand reached forward. I looked over and her entire body and little bat wings were vibrating with excitement as Hama brought the sign back. Words could hardly explain how I felt seeing her excited like this.
"Go ahead, Lyra. Give it a spin!" I encouraged her, and Lyra eagerly pressed the button on the holographic interface. The massive screen came to life again, and the adventure through space began once more.
As before, Gachica appeared, shaking its massive dice in the background. The virtual wheel spun, and the dice were thrown, but this time they stayed on the screen. When they stopped a message appeared.
[A Pair of 6's! Total: 12! Roll again!]
Gachica rolled the dice again.
[A Pair of 5's! Total: 22! Roll again!]
[A Pair of 6's! Total: 34! Roll again!]
[A Pair of 4's! Total: 42! Roll again!]
[A Pair of 6's! Total: 54! Roll again!]
It finally stopped at a 5 and a 6 giving Lyra a total of 65, and Lyra started to freak out, shaking me. I couldn't believe how lucky she was, but both of us looked at the screen when the next message came up.
[Dice Roll Total: 65!]
[Rarity class has been set to (Unique). All Skills become Unique Skills.]
"Hoah!" Exclaimed, and then the wheel stopped on a dazzling outfit. The holographic display highlighted the chosen reward, and a sense of excitement filled the room.

The room was filled with awe as Lyra and I stared at the stunning Celestial Dreamweaver Lyra Set. The celestial patterns and ethereal crystals sparkled, giving off a radiant glow. Lyra was practically vibrating with excitement, her eyes sparkling with joy.
"Leon! This is amazing! I can't believe it!" Lyra exclaimed, her wings fluttering with delight.
"I can't believe it either, Lyra. This set is absolutely stunning, and the skills it grants you are incredible," I replied, genuinely impressed.
Lyra immediately hopped out of bed and equipped the Celestial Dreamweaver Lyra Set, and the transformation was magical. The flowing black robes, delicate headband, and feathered sandals suited her perfectly. The celestial patterns and ethereal crystals enhanced her already enchanting appearance.
"Thank you, Leon! This is the best day ever!" Lyra hugged me tightly, her excitement contagious.
I couldn't help but smile, grateful for the unexpected joy that the Character Lottery had brought us. Despite the looming challenges and the frustrating encounter with Garland, moments like these reminded me of the unique and wonderful world I found myself in.
Lyra continued to marvel at her new set but then turned to me with a mischievous smile. I think it is time to put away your blessing for a little bit," Lyra said, her tone changing to something much more seductive.
I knew what was coming, so I put up one hand as a glass bottle appeared in the other.
"Wait!"
