World Hopping With Gacha

Hmm... interesting. I see, so that's how it works.

Sitting cross-legged in the eerily sterile room, I let my thoughts swirl. The [World Hopper] ability, as incredible as it sounded, was surprisingly straightforward. It had two modes:

1. Random teleport—throw myself into the abyss and hope for the best.

2. Destination selection—choose where I want to go, provided I know the place.

Here's the problem: I'm 11. A kid. Sure, the White Room has made me physically and mentally stronger than most adults, but I'm still a far cry from surviving in most worlds.

Any world with supernatural chaos? No thanks. Tossing myself into a death trap like Fate or Marvel with zero preparation would be peak stupidity. If I wanted to avoid dying (again), I needed to be strategic.

So, the plan:

1. Use my 5 spins to gather resources.

2. Choose a safe (ish) world to land in—preferably one where I could grow stronger without immediately being obliterated.

"Alright, let's do this," I muttered, rubbing my hands together. "Gacha, don't fail me now."

[Spin] [Spin] [Spin] [Spin] [Spin]

The wheel appeared in front of me, spinning wildly for each spin. The anticipation was killing me. One by one, the results popped up.

Spin Results

1. [Weapon Armory (Counter-Strike)]:

"A weapon shop designed after the Counter-Strike series. As long as you have money, you can buy unlimited weapons and ammo."

Holy shit, that's insane. Unlimited weapons? Guns, grenades, ammo, you name it—as long as I've got cash, I can arm an entire army.

2. [Modified Character Template - Arthur Pendragon]:

"A character template that allows the user to gradually gain the powers and abilities of Arthur Pendragon (Prototype). Includes the associated power systems. Note: A tattoo will be engraved on the host's body to fully integrate the template."

Proto Arthur. The Caliburn AND Excalibur. Oh, and let's not forget Rhongomyniad, his literal pillar of light spear. I'm getting his entire power set? This is insane.

3. [Cuirassier (Yamaha V-Max)]:

"A king can't go to war without a steed."

Wait, isn't this the motorbike Artoria used in the Holy Grail War? A kingly ride, indeed. This will make traveling much easier once I get out of here.

4. [White Rose]:

"Clothes worthy of a king."

(A white and gold alternate costume of Arthur in Fate/Grand Order.)

Not bad. Stylish, regal, and surprisingly practical. I'll take it.

5. [Smartphone]:

"A phone connected to the Nexus of Realities. Works in any universe."

Okay, this one's cool, but compared to the others? A little underwhelming. Still, it'll be useful for gathering information wherever I go.

Set Progress

[Set unlocked 3/??]:

"Ah, so the Bike, Character Template, and White Rose are all part of a set. Makes sense. Maybe there's a bigger reward waiting if I collect all the pieces."

---

After reading the details I stared at the results, my jaw practically on the floor.

"Holy shit…"

Let me Break it D own for you:

The [Weapon Armory] and [Cuirassier] give me tools for both combat and transportation.

The [Character Template] literally makes me a living legend in progress.

The [White Rose] outfit boosts my drip level to 100.

And the [Smartphone] ensures I won't be out of the loop in any universe.

This wasn't just good. It was overpowered. I'd hit the jackpot.

"Alright, time to plan my escape."

Choosing a World

Now that I had my rewards, the next step was deciding where to go. The options swirled in my mind:

1. Fate Universe? Hell no. Between Alaya, Gaia, and literal planet-destroying entities, I'd be a goner in seconds.

2. Marvel? Slightly better, but not by much. Sure, I could try to stay low-key, but then there's Thanos, Arishem, and a thousand other threats waiting to vaporize me.

3. DC? Even worse. Lucifer, the Endless, and more gods than I can count. Hard pass.

"What's left?" I mused.

Anime, maybe? Martial arts worlds sounded tempting, but they lacked magecraft or magic. I wanted something balanced.

Then it hit me.

Harry Potter.

A relatively safe world (as long as I stayed at Hogwarts). Six years to grow stronger before any real threats showed up. Plus, I could explore magecraft and magic in depth.

"Perfect," I said, nodding. "Harry Potter it is."

Now it was time to Integrate the Template

As I finalized my plan, a strange sensation washed over me.

Knowledge…

It poured into my brain like a tidal wave. Magecraft techniques, Arthur's combat styles, and the history of his abilities—all of it began to settle in my mind.

"Whoa…" I muttered, my eyes fluttering shut.

For a brief moment, it felt soothing. Relaxing, even.

Then the pain hit.

"FUCK!"

My back arched as fire spread across my skin. A searing, burning sensation crawled up my spine and shoulders.

"What the hell?!" I screamed, clutching at my arms.

A notification popped up in my mind:

[Tattoo Engraving in Progress… Please remain still.]

"Remain still?! It burns like hell, you piece of—!"

Before I could finish cursing, the pain intensified. My vision blurred, and my entire body trembled. It felt like my very essence was being rewritten, reshaped to fit the template.

Finally, after what felt like hours, the burning subsided. I collapsed onto the floor, drenched in sweat.

"Shitty…ass…system…" I wheezed. "That…hurt like a bitch."

Once I'd caught my breath, I glanced at my reflection on the polished floor. A glowing tattoo now stretched across my back, depicting a golden sword and a shining crown.

"...At least it looks cool," I muttered.

---

With my abilities integrated and my destination decided, it was time to make my move.

I activated [World Hopper], selecting "Harry Potter Universe - Hogwarts, Year 1."

A swirling portal of light opened in front of me.

"Well, here goes nothing," I said, stepping forward.

As the light engulfed me, I couldn't help but grin.

New world, new life. Let's see what adventures await.

To be continued.
