Gacha Game Female Characters Become Obsessed with Me

In every world, there is a moment of first creation.

It could have been made with a single word from an omnipotent being.
‘Let there be light’.

An unimaginably beautiful fireworks display.
It could have started from an explosion and smoke.

The one vast world called Last Felix also.
Had a creator, and there was a creation myth in the form of a transcript.

“Director? If we really exclude male characters, female users’ popularity–”
“No, women like pretty women too, you know? Are you saying I’m not a woman but a man then? Wanna fight?”

“Um, for an all-ages rating, the overall design is too–”
“It’s fine. We’ll just slap on some kimchi until release, then distribute it as an unofficial patch on Twitter or something after launch like those eroge games do. That’s what they do when getting on Steam too.”

“Putting in 3D modeling and developing it as an auto battler might be a bit of a waste of resources–”
“Huh? Even Genshin Impact ends up just auto-ing anyway. Might as well have voluptuous female characters fighting coolly. And if we make it well, it’s good for recycling later too.”

Though not omniscient or omnipotent, the creator was.

Most of the creator’s opinions were pushed through like a bulldozer and directly reflected in the creation of heaven and earth.

But some opinions were discarded despite the stubborn insistence.

“…You want to put R-rated service scenes in an all-ages game? Are you in your right mind, Director?”
“Ah! Why! We can just release an adults-only version separately. Or like that game X-Kairim, we could do it as mods–”
“There are many cases of getting kicked out for doing that. Like Banished… And even if it’s an unofficial patch, that kind of thing goes straight to media reports.”
“Hmm… tsk, can’t be helped then.”

“No, the protagonist’s job is a shopkeeper? Aren’t you getting too caught up in the concept?”
“Why? Why? It’s good! Really good! Throw potions on characters’ heads to support them, shoot things like Heaven Horse Death Beams to help kill monsters too. In those web novels they use points to buy chicken and stuff, right? We can put in memes like that too.”
“…I’ll discuss this with the CEO. He’ll probably be 100% against it though.”
“Sheesh, you old men have no romance.”

“You want to add hidden quests? Have you been looking at Gambanso or something lately?”
“Nah. Ignoring romance? Just me alone getting rich through hidden quests. Isn’t that good? It’s cool. It’s nice. It’s romantic. Any further objections will be considered an attack on me.”
“If you’re going to do that, we should remove PvP… What kind of abuse are you trying to get from users?”
“Hmm, is that so?”

Like that, there were some settings that disappeared into the backstreets of history.

But the creator never gave up until the end.

With a strong determination to throw their ideas into the world.

“Ah, we’re not putting it in live. Let’s just develop it first? Consider it practice. I’ll give you a fat performance bonus.”

Finally bullying subordinates in secret to push through their will.
They packaged it as dummy data and secretly hid it in the world about to be born.

Like that.

Along with a very beautiful fireworks display–
There was light in the world.

6 AM.
The time when Saha’s day begins.

Though not as much as Yohena or Ark.
She woke up early in the morning, tidied herself, and offered prayers to the goddess.

“May no problems arise today either, in the name of Sweety.”

And with the sandwich kindly prepared by Ark last night, she stepped out into the twilight streets.

After lightly walking to the knights’ order to start work, she checked the civil complaints received yesterday and planned out her colleagues’ movements in advance.

Celestia, whose population kept growing, was expanding its outskirts to the point it could be called reckless development.

Recently, various problems like petty theft and such have been occurring more often.

Feeling the role of the knights’ order gradually growing heavier, she let out a sigh.

After organizing paperwork all morning like that.

“I’ll patrol inside the tower and return.”

“Have a safe trip, Captain!”
“Bring back a cocktail!”
“…Drinking during work hours is prohibited.”
“Aww, the Captain is so stiff~”

Time to climb the tower with the lovely Ark.

Not only fulfilling the noble mission bestowed upon heroes by the goddess.
…But also able to fully satisfy personal desires, the most heartwarming time of the day.

Today too, while taking care of Ark’s safety.

The new weapon specially made for her by the smart and wise Ark.

She took the lead in pioneering the path, snip-snipping spider webs with scissors.

“Saha! You’re so cool!”

“Hehe… ahem, hem. It’s nothing.”

Her mood soaring to the skies, about to burst from Ark’s kind praise.

After safely conquering the tower like that.

The rest of her companions to Ark’s shop.
Though very regretful, she returned to the knights’ order to handle remaining work, seriously contemplating whether to pass on the knight captain position.

Late at night, returning to the guild house.

“Saha! Good work today.”

Wrapped in a smile shining like the sun.
The frail and delicate Ark greeted her happily.

As if.
The scene she had imagined since childhood.
Like her dream of working hard and returning home to a rabbit-like husband cutely hopping around and acting affectionate had finally come true–

“Huh…? Ark, why are you still awake? What about the shop?”

Just before her delusions ran wild.
Saha barely held onto the thread of reason.

“I closed early today. I had some things to do. …And something to give to Saha too.”

Give me something?
What is it? What is he implying?
Is it finally the seventh phoenix tail feather?
Is it legal? Is it legal? Can I pounce?

Saha’s brain spun round and round, but.

What Ark handed her was a bit different from what she had imagined.

A contract bestowing new hero powers upon her.

And her image magically engraved on it.
Resembled the appearance of the strongest she saw daily in the dimensional arena.
……

“Th-th-this is such an indecent…!”

Greatly flustered, Saha unconsciously pushed Ark very lightly.

“Gack!”

Thud!

Ark’s body flew and slammed into the wall.

“A-A-Ark?!”

Ah.
Familiar…

“Ark, are you coming to? Are you okay?”
“Master…!”
“Waaah…! Master…! Are you alright?”

…Really familiar.
Three heads peeking into view.
I feel like I’ve seen this in the Fallout opening cinematic…

Shaking off the sense of deja vu for a moment, I got up.

It was my familiar room.
…Not the studio apartment I used to live in, but the guild house’s.

And turning my gaze a bit.

“Sob, I’m so ashamed…!”
“Miss Saha? Lift a bit more firmly.”

Saha was kneeling with her hands up, and Elise was sitting on top with her plump bottom.

What is this?
It’s not a master-servant reversal world, but a demon-holy knight reversal world?

“…Elise, get down. Saha didn’t do it on purpose either. I was a bit rude.”

Right.
I got too excited and suddenly thrust it out.

From Saha’s perspective, it must have felt like suddenly receiving a photo of her face photoshopped onto a bikini.

I can understand.

“Sniff…! Ark…!”

“Can everyone except Saha leave? I have something important to discuss.”

First, I had the others exit.

“Saha, I completely understand. I’d be shocked too. But, this might sound strange… I think it really suits you. And it will make you even stronger.”

I whispered to Saha with 100% sincerity.

Then.

“Such deep meaning…!”

Saha was overwhelmed with emotion!

…Did it work?

Soon, a soft light enveloped Saha’s body.

Wow.
Wowwowwowholyshiiiiiit…!

…Before I could even finish my exclamation.
Light wrapped around Saha’s body again and Saha (swimsuit) reverted to Saha (normal).

“Still, it’s embarrassing…”

What the.
Why isn’t it fixed but variable.
Why isn’t it a bikini that seamlessly blends into everyday life.

This is a scam…!

After being betrayed by the bikini.

“What, it’s Tinya’s turn tonight?”
“Ahem!”

Under the 24-hour close Ark surveillance system.
There was no way to avoid the heroes’ gazes.

Reluctantly, I headed to the shop with Tinya, taking in the night air deeply.

When checking the secret workshop.
Sharing secrets is a bit uncomfortable, but…

Oh well.
Tinya is cute, so it’s fine.

Entering the night shop that was bustling earlier but now enveloped in tranquility.

2nd floor.

[Construct Secret Workshop]
[Points consumed: 2,000 points]
[Y■ / N□]

“Ooh!”

Sparkle sparkle, bling bling.
Along with a slightly crude effect.

Walls appeared in real-time in the empty space where there was nothing before.

Opening the strangely modern-looking door and entering.

“…?”
“Master, what is this?”

A pure white room with nothing in it spread out.

No.
Is it a bug?
Or is it unimplemented?

As Tinya and I stood side by side with question marks floating in our heads.

Bzzzt–

My smartphone vibrated.

[LF – Shopkeeper Add-on]
[Update complete]

I had long since abandoned realistic sensibilities like “How can it update when there’s no Wi-Fi…”

When I ran the app, a new menu “Secret Workshop” had appeared below “Point Shop” which was originally at the very bottom.

Clicking on it–

[Secret Workshop LV.1 (Max Level LV.1)]
[The functions of the Secret Workshop are in beta testing. They may not work properly.]

Along with an ominous warning message.

[Workshop Function: 3D Printer]
[No tooltip exists. Please enter a tooltip.]
[Required Points: 1,000 points]

[Workshop Function: Status]
[No tooltip exists. Please enter a tooltip.]
[Required Points: 5,000 points]

[Workshop Function: Special Gacha Machine]
[No tooltip exists. Please enter a tooltip.]
[Required Points: 10,000 points]

[Workshop Function: ???]
[Not unlocked.]
[Required Points: ??? points]

A list that seemed to have dropped all its tooltips somewhere unfolded.

What’s a Special Gacha Machine?
Suddenly my body is trembling and I feel like dopamine is about to surge?

For now, that one had too high point requirements.

3D printer, huh…

I checked the “Blueprint for Mammonite Revolver” I had obtained earlier in my inventory.

REVELATOR. I don’t know what it means.
CLASS MERCHANT. Merchant class.

…This game.

Could it be that the shopkeeper was the protagonist in the planning stage?
No one would come up with such an idea unless they were shot in the head.

–But then again, the game was full of B-grade sensibilities from the start.
It’s possible.

For now, just looking at the points, the only thing I can unlock right now is the 3D printer, so.

[Y■ / N□]

As soon as I clicked–

Along with the usual cheap effect, a 3D printer like I’ve seen in real labs appeared in the corner of the room.

“Woooow! Pretty!”

Ignoring Tinya’s reaction, I inserted the blueprint into what looked like a slot for inserting blueprints.

[Mammonite Revolver (RANK β)]
[Required materials: 50 Iron Ingots / 1,000 Gold Coins / 20 Magic Powder / 10 Flame Crystals…]
[A dedicated weapon created for merchant-type revelators. Its power varies depending on the amount of money possessed.]

The list of required materials along with the weapon’s description was displayed on the screen.

…Dedicated weapon.
And.
Power varies depending on the amount of money possessed.

“This is…”

Can I.
Put a period on my life as the heroes’ beloved newbie.
And finally become a proper dealer and protagonist?

My heart fluttered slightly.
