Chapter 2: Lottery Explosion
"An unopened favorability gift pack?" Furen murmured to himself.
Without much hesitation, Furen clicked the confirmation button to open it.
The ability stats display that had originally appeared in his mind shifted and transformed into a new screen.
Host: Tsukiyo FurenSakura Haruno: Favorability 75% (3 lottery draws remaining)
Ino Yamanaka: Favorability 75% (3 lottery draws remaining)
Hinata Hyuga: Favorability 47% (1 lottery draw remaining)
Tenten: Favorability 45% (1 lottery draw remaining)
25% Favorability: She likes you quite a bit.
50% Favorability: You are her dream guy, and the best candidate for a romantic relationship.
75% Favorability: If you confess, she'll become your girlfriend.
100% Favorability: She very much wants to marry you.
Looking at these favorability values for the first time, Furen asked in his mind, "System, explain to me how this favorability lottery works."
The system's emotionless voice responded, "Favorability values are a unique feature of the Raising Favorability to Become a God System. When a female character develops feelings for the host, it will automatically be recorded in the favorability panel."
"Every time a female character's favorability toward you increases by 25%, you can draw a prize. The rewards from the lottery include but are not limited to skills, attributes, bloodlines, and items."
Furen pondered the system's explanation, then a thought crossed his mind, making his breath quicken. "Are the prizes drawn based on what they currently have or what they will have in the future?"
"The reward pool includes everything the female character will ever possess in her entire life," the system clarified.
Hearing this, Furen was overjoyed.
"If the prize pool includes everything from their entire life..." Furen glanced at Sakura and Ino beside him, then at Tenten behind him, and finally at Hinata not far away.
"Super Strength, Yin Seal, Creation Rebirth: Strength of a Hundred Technique, Mind Transfer Jutsu, the Byakugan, Tenten's Space Ninjutsu, the Six Paths Sacred Treasures she'll find..."
The sudden excitement caused Furen to remember all the great achievements these women would have in the future, according to the Naruto series.
Previously troubled by his lack of talent, Kekkei Genkai, or family background, Furen had now found his breakthrough!
"Draw all the rewards!" Furen immediately commanded the system.
As soon as he gave the order, a flickering screen appeared in his mind, signaling the lottery draw. Unfortunately, Furen couldn't see what exactly was in the prize pool.
Drawing Sakura Haruno's 25% Favorability Reward: Sakura's Genius Talent.
Drawing Tenten's 25% Favorability Reward: Space Scroll.
As the screen flashed, Furen's heart leaped into his throat, and then a purple light flickered.
Congratulations, host! You've drawn Sakura Haruno's 75% Favorability Reward: Super Strength (Lv1).
Before Furen could even inspect the Super Strength reward, another purple light flashed.
Congratulations, host! You've drawn Ino Yamanaka's 75% Favorability Reward: Mind Transfer Jutsu (Lv1).
"System, what does this level mean?" Furen asked, pointing to the "Lv1" next to Super Strength and Mind Transfer Jutsu.
"Lv1 means the skill can be leveled up. You'll need to figure out how to do that yourself," the system replied, avoiding a direct explanation.
With all his lottery chances exhausted, Furen ended up drawing a Space Scroll from Tenten, and when he reached behind him, sure enough, he pulled out a scroll the size of a book.
He also drew Fire and Lightning Chakra Affinities from Hinata.
From Sakura, he received Genius Talent, Medical Jutsu: Hemostasis, and the upgradeable Super Strength.
From Ino, he obtained Water and Earth Chakra Affinities, Medical Palm Technique, and the Yamanaka Clan's Mind Transfer Jutsu.
Beep...
The system detected that the host now possessed all five chakra natures (Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, Earth). Initiating fusion... Ninja stat has increased!
Furen switched the system panel from the favorability display back to his personal attribute screen.
The original total value of 26, which had him ranked at the lower end of Genin level, had drastically changed.
Host: Tsukiyo Furen
Abilities:
Ninjutsu (5 +0.4), Taijutsu (4.6 +0.4), Genjutsu (2 +0.4), Intelligence (7 +0.4), Strength (4.6 +0.4), Speed (3 +0.4), Stamina (4 +0.4), Hand Seals (6.6 +0.4)
Total Score: 40 (Chunin)
Skills: Mind Transfer Jutsu (Upgradeable), Super Strength (Upgradeable), Hemostasis Technique, Medical Palm Technique
In just a minute, Furen had gone from barely scraping the Genin level to having standard Chunin-level strength. As he reviewed his ability stats, he realized that these values followed the most official and authoritative scale from the Naruto world.
Based on this system, a total score of 40–50 meant Chunin strength, 50–60 meant Jonin strength, and 60 or above was the level of Elite Jonin. A score of 70 meant Kage-level, and a perfect score of 80 represented the standard for Super Kage-level.
In the official statistics of his previous life, only a handful of characters had a score of 70 or higher, let alone the perfect 80 of a Super Kage.
"System, why does every stat have a '+0.4' next to it?" Furen asked excitedly after his initial rush of emotions.
"Every time the host successfully wins the favor of a major female character and her favorability reaches 75%, you receive a +0.2 bonus to your stats."
Furen nodded as he processed this new information. Since he could grow stronger by raising favorability...
"Furen..." Sakura shyly lowered her head.
Sakura Haruno's Favorability +1%
Ino, noticing Sakura blushing, spoke up. "Sakura, why are you blushing? Furen is trying to pay attention in class, don't distract him."
Furen smiled slightly, gently releasing Sakura's hand and pretending to focus on the lesson.
Ino glared at her in defiance, and the two girls seemed ready for a showdown...
Ino Yamanaka's Favorability +1%
A smile played on Furen's lips. It seemed he was destined to take the path of a scoundrel to max out his favorability...
"Listen up! The graduation exam will test your Clone Technique!" Iruka suddenly announced from the podium. "When I call your name, head to the next classroom in order."
