Ding!
The short alarm was followed by a long list of gacha results.
Taking a deep breath, I began to slowly look through it.

★★[(Limited) ☆☆☆☆☆: Power – Avatar of Love]★★
“...What?”
I had expected the sequence of 1-star items. Given the circumstances, it was clear I’d be drawing 1 stars for a while.
At some point, I started seeing 3-star skills, and eventually, even a dazzling golden 4-star skill appeared.
But even that is not important to me right now.
At the very bottom. From the very last draw, a brilliant five-colored light was bursting forth.
The golden 4-star was certainly dazzling, but the one occupying my view now is on a different level.
It’s like all colors gathered together, exploding right in front of my eyes in an instant.
Behind that violently splendid display was a phrase that read....
The moment I realized I had drawn the [☆☆☆☆☆] I longed for. My body reacted before my mind did.
“Eeeeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!”
A mix of emotions that could be joy, astonishment, resentment, or relief, ultimately turning into dopamine.
My vision spun, and a tingling sensation ran down from my spine to the tips of my body.
After exhaling all the air in my lungs along with a scream, I finally regained my composure.
“Oh no...!”
No matter how happy I was, wasn’t that too loud?!
???? Enhanced existing powers of the Goddess of Love.
???? Unyielding stamina even after rolling 17:1 for three days and nights.
???????? A size down below that matches it.
“...?”
For a moment, I wondered what it was, so I carefully went over it again, but nothing changed.
This Power. It’s great, but it’s completely useless in combat...!
“A refund!! Give me another 5-star!! Give me a combat one!!”
I clung to the Goddess Statue and wailed, but the statue continued to smile benevolently.
...Wait, aren’t the eyes slightly half-closed? And isn’t there some drool coming from its mouth?
“Ugh...”
From a distance, it certainly looked benevolent, but up close, it seemed lecherous. I roughly tossed the statue onto the bed and stood in front of the mirror.
A face not much different from before. It seems the ideal me I envision is this current appearance.
However, this is only the overall appearance. The difference itself was clear.
“No matter how you look at it, feeling a seductive vibe from a man is a bit...”
Even by the high standards of the Pan Continent, I was no different from an unparalleled pretty boy.
During that time, I gave off an aura closer to cute rather than handsome because of my age....
But now, on top of that, I was exuding a sultry scent.
“What exactly do you want to turn me into...”
Even the beauty power that came out occasionally felt a bit unsettling, but the Avatar of Love power felt like the final touch.
Well, if you dissect it one by one, it certainly has effects befitting a 5-star.
Significantly increased lifespan? As seen in the existence of Eve, who has lived for over a thousand years under the blessing of the World Tree and will live just as long in the future, it’s not something to take lightly.
The Goddess of Love isn’t a deity specialized in vitality or life span like the World Tree...but still, I’ll probably live a few hundred years more.
Moreover, I can maintain the ideal age I envision throughout that long life.
“It’s a relief that Morgana died this time.”
If she had seen me, she would have obsessed over me just like she did with Benny. There’s no way she wouldn’t be captivated by agelessness without side effects.
Next is absolute mental resistance.
Of course, this is helpful. Every monster has been cursed with madness, and madness is inherently contagious.
Right now, all the monsters have gone berserk and their bodies have become powerful....
But what if a species with mental abilities are turned into monsters from the start?
A terrible thing would happen where madness is indiscriminately spread around.
The reason the front line’s progress on the 7th floor is delayed is because of the high ratio of such mental-type monsters, so that explains everything.
This I acknowledge. It might not be of immediate help, but it will surely be incredibly useful later.
“...The problem is what comes next, though.”
Enhancement of the existing Power received from the Goddess of Love? Does that mean my skin becomes more moist and emits a captivating fragrance?
Where else would I use this besides teasing Ellie...
Increased stamina and lower body reinforcement? Of course, that’s good. I’m a man too, how could I dislike this?
However, this also does not help in battle at all.
“Hmm....”
Still, just in case, should I check how much it has grown?
I pulled down my pants and looked below.
“...Crazy.”
I take back what I just said.
This is definitely 5-star quality.
With a slightly more generous heart, I decided to look for other good points instead of complaining.
“Hmm. Hmmm. Hmmmm....”
I kept tilting my head and racking my brain....
Aside from the increased divine power and its purity due to the enhancement of the Goddess of Love’s Power, there’s nothing else.
“...Still, it’s 5 stars.”
The Pickpocketing skill is quite handy now, but I was really disappointed when I first got it.
I didn’t even know what a 3-star was, and I thought pickpocketing was so unimpressive.
But when I actually used it, wasn’t it an unexpectedly excellent skill?
“So, even though this seems unimpressive now, I’m sure it’ll be useful in some way in actual combat.”
I turned my gaze towards the pile of Magic Herbs on the bed, trying hard to stay positive.
Now, it’s time to check out the 3-star item.
