My Ability Is OOOO (11)

I pressed the punch button and looked up at the screen.

‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠

Zzzzzzt—

Suddenly, with a sound of static, a message appeared on the screen.

An unbelievable benefit appeared on the screen before my eyes. ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠Seeing the "3/3" count, it seemed I could use it three times.

A buff that guarantees victory in any contest...?

What an insane perk...

Is this why my junior back in the unit used to sing "Benefit! Benefit! Benefit!" while going on his new recruit leave...?

They really gathered every four-character idiom that guarantees victory, didn't they...

This would be the ultimate dream for anyone obsessed with gambling.

As I was admiring the buffs on the screen, it suddenly shifted again.

I don't need to ask or argue when it's a guaranteed win—of course I'm going to pull that lever!

I pulled the lever again with all my might.

Ding!

Whirrrrrr—

Even without me pressing the button, the screen already displayed "Victory."

Ding-ding!

With the notification sound, the screen changed so quickly I couldn't even process the reward.

????

What was that??

As I stared blankly at the screen, the System explained the reward.

W-what did you say?????????

A... Subspace!?

Right now, you said Subspace!?

This is insane...

You're just giving me a Subspace, the ultimate fantasy romance?

The performance of this benefit is for real...

"No... a Subspace... I love it..."

I was half-worried and half-expectant about what the remaining two special rewards would be, but I hardened my heart with anticipation and pulled the lever twice in a row.

Ding!

Whirrrrrr—

Ding!

Whirrrrrr—

It can be used through a specific action or by speaking, huh...

Still, it's my first time opening a Subspace, so I shouldn't just use an action; I should say it out loud.

"A-a-subspace, open!"

With a trembling heart, I reached out my left arm and shouted the command to open the Subspace.

Wooooong—

With a sensation at my fingertips as if something were being sucked in like a black hole, a circular ring about 100cm in diameter appeared, humming up to my elbow.

"W-woah!"

I screamed in surprise.

At my scream, I heard the three managers and the Goddess also sounding startled.

"Wh-what! What's wrong!?"

- No way... -

『A... Subspace? 』

[The System... my own System... why...]

I heard some lines that didn't sound like they were just startled, but I focused on the sensation touching my left hand and moved it left and right.

!

I felt something like a small box touch my moving left hand.

Quickly grabbing the small box with my left hand, I pulled my arm out of the Subspace.

Even after I pulled my arm out, the Subspace didn't disappear.

Do I need to say a closing command?

"Subspace, cl-close...?"

Spin, spin.

Wooooong—

The Subspace slowly rotated and began to fade from the current space.

Watching the Subspace slowly vanish in fascination, I realized there was a box in my left hand—small enough to fit in my palm, but about 5cm thick like a law book—and I took a look at it.

The box was made of high-quality wood and was designed to open from the top and bottom.

With a pounding heart, I held the bottom of the box with my left hand, grabbed the top with my right, and applied force to open it.

Click—

The box separated into top and bottom pieces, and something fluttered down onto the machine's floor.

Holding the top and bottom of the box, I looked down at the floor of the machine.

Judging by the fluttering, it looked like some kind of paper...

OH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I couldn't help but scream internally.

Because written on that paper were the words 'Skill Creation Ticket'...!

Holy sh*t, let's goooooooooooooooooooo!
