**--------------------------------------------**
My name is Mark, and I was an ordinary worker except for the fact that I worked at a phone scam company.
I spent 10 years working there until one of the scam victims stormed into the building and set it on fire, killing me along with countless employees.
A fitting end for a bad guy, I believed. By that point, I had given up on most of my dreams, and my only joy was going home each day to play various games.
So, when I died, I didn't have many regrets and just waited, hoping that maybe on the other side, there would be a continuation of my story. And to my surprise, there was.
**(WELCOME TO THE JUDGMENT SLOT MACHINE)**
Before me was an infinite white space with a slot machine glowing in different colors and a panel with several words.
**(Here, you must spin the machine to decide which world you will reincarnate into and, shortly after, which abilities you will have.)
(Note: Your luck is tied to your karma, so good luck!)**
"I think this is pretty bad," Mark thought. He was certainly carrying extremely negative karma for deceiving dozens, maybe even hundreds of people and robbing them of their savings.
Mark let out a long sigh and prepared to pull the lever when he noticed a small warning sign beside it.
**(If the individual wishes to improve their chances, contact our support by pressing the red button after spinning the wheel once.)**
"Well, it's better than nothing," Mark thought as he spun the wheel. The glass screen of the machine began to spin, and hundreds of symbols and names appeared on the screen.
MCU, DC, Akame ga Kill, Jujutsu Kaisen, and numerous other names flashed by. The only difference was that more peaceful universes had their names and symbols in green, while dangerous ones appeared in red.
Soon, the wheel stopped spinning, and a dark red name lit up on the screen. "Ah, crap," Mark thought as he read the familiar name.
**(Runeterra – Danger Level: S+)**
"I'm really screwed," Mark muttered, cold sweat breaking out as he thought about the League of Legends universe where ancient demons could be found around any corner, gods in any neighborhood, and cosmic beings in any city.
"At least it's not the 40K universe; if it were, I'd be truly doomed." Mark tried to console himself and immediately pressed the red button afterward, knowing that without a powerful ability, even in death, his soul wouldn't be safe in that world.
**(Ding!)**
The moment the red button was pressed, a notification sound echoed in the air, and a transparent screen rose from the ground.
**(Mission System to Improve Karma!
Current Karma: -1500 (Note: You are a horrible person, but there is still hope.)
Current Missions:
Save the world: 8,000 positive karma points
Destroy the Darkin: 2,000 positive karma points
Defeat Mordekaiser: 1,500 positive karma points
Destroy the Void: 3,000 positive karma points
....
(Note: If you die before completing the mission, your soul will be permanently torn apart. You may only accept one mission.)**
"Seriously, there isn't an easier mission? Why are they all nearly impossible?" Mark shouted at the screen but received no answer. In the end, he gritted his teeth and chose the most difficult mission.
Saving the world of Runeterra was almost an impossible task. He would need to defeat the Darkin, the Void, the Black Mist, and who knows how many other mystical beings that inhabited the world.
But what's one more debt to someone already living on the streets? "If I'm going to have a hard life, at least it'll be on my terms!" Mark declared with determination. The blue screen disappeared, leaving a few words floating in the air.
**(Thank you for choosing! Good luck.)**
With that, another screen on the slot machine lit up, explaining the rules for drawing abilities.
**(You have 3 chances to draw abilities. It has been detected that the individual has +6,000 karma, granting +2 additional draws and +2 opportunities to fuse drawn abilities.
Warning: Fused abilities retain original characteristics and add new ones while amplifying effects, but increase usage requirements.)
Additional Warning: Your abilities will be adapted to the world you are inserted into.)**
"Haha, this is good," Mark thought, laughing. At least now he had a chance of survival if he had some luck.
Knowing this, Mark didn't hesitate and pulled the lever.
The machine started playing party music while it spun rapidly through countless colorful abilities, but it soon slowed down and stopped.
**(Epic Ability: Sharingan!)**
"HAHAHA!" Mark laughed loudly, thrilled with his good fortune, but his smile soon faded. "Although the Sharingan is very powerful, especially with its awakened abilities, it's far from omnipotent in Runeterra."
With that thought, Mark calmed down and spun the lever again, a separate screen displaying the abilities he acquired in the top right corner.
**----------------------------**
**(After using all his chances.)**
Mark looked at the panel with his new abilities and thought deeply about whether to fuse some of them. He ended up with 3 epic abilities, 1 legendary, and 2 rare ones.
**(List of abilities:
Sharingan – Epic
Severed Universe – Epic (Note: Sho's ability from Fire Force)
Domain Expansion – Epic (Jujutsu Kaisen ability)
Hinokami Kagura – Rare (Demon Slayer ability)
Hanma Blood – Rare (Baki ability)
Super Saiyan – Legendary (Dragon Ball ability)
Warning: High-level abilities have specific usage requirements.)**
Mark took a deep breath as he viewed his current abilities. While none of them allowed him to manipulate reality or copy others' abilities, his current set could potentially let him face nearly any creature in the League of Legends universe, though with some difficulty.
"I still have two fusion chances. I could gain another legendary ability, and if I fuse them, I might end up with a mythic ability," Mark pondered. If he fused two of his epic abilities and then the legendary one, he could achieve an ability capable of altering reality, but the usage requirements would likely be severe.
In the end, Mark abandoned the idea, considering how dangerous that world was; he would hardly have the time to grow strong enough to use such an ability. However, he could still enhance others.
Mark thought carefully and decided to fuse his two rare abilities, Hanma Blood and Hinokami Kagura. "If I'm right, Hanma Blood will grant me the lineage of Yujiro Hanma, giving me significant advantages in vitality, strength, and evolution, while Hinokami Kagura is the ultimate technique of Yoriichi, a man capable of single-handedly pushing Muzan to the brink of death."
"Both are physical enhancement abilities, so they should be quite compatible," Mark reasoned, and with a tap on the screen, the two abilities fused.
A purple glow appeared on the screen, indicating the creation of a new epic ability.
**(Sun God Lineage!
Greatly enhances the individual's physical potential.
Significantly boosts fire compatibility.
The 'Dance of the Fire God' technique will now release extremely hot flames when used.)**
"Although it's just a general idea, I can imagine how powerful it will be," Mark thought and then fused his other two abilities, Severed Universe and Domain Expansion. Both were game-breaking abilities that could disrupt the flow of battle when used but had clear drawbacks.
Severed Universe inflicted extreme cold on the user, limiting the usage time and causing self-harm. Domain Expansion, while varying by type, was a high-cost ability that most sorcerers could only use once or twice in a battle. Mark planned for this fusion to be his trump card.
With a click, the two abilities fused, and a golden glow appeared on the screen, revealing the creation of a legendary ability.
**(Domain Expansion: Time Domain – Legendary Ability
When expanding your domain, all your attacks gain the time attribute, granting you the power to erase something or someone from existence.
By consuming more energy and mental power, you can stop time within your domain – Warning: The longer the time is stopped, the higher the energy cost.)
The domain represents your entire being; dying in the domain won't kill you but will consume part of your lived time, injuring your soul. Note: If the damage is severe, the individual may fall into a coma and die.
Final Warning: This ability has an extremely high cost. It is recommended that the individual prepares adequately before using it.)**
Mark took a deep breath as he saw the features of this ability. "With this, I can defeat those immortal beings, but these cost warnings worry me," Mark thought, concerned about how expensive using this ability would be, but he decided to think about it later.
At that moment, fireworks shot out of the slot machine, and a message appeared wishing him good luck. With that, a portal opened beneath his feet, and he fell into the dark abyss.
