Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 1: You've Been Chosen!



[The fallen, the near extinction, those who wish to die, the rich, those who have been loved by life, and those who have been chosen. Are you ready to leave everything you have behind? Are you, the ones chosen by the gods themselves, ready to write history? Are you, the reason for creating the line between life and death, ready to become holy beings?

Are you ready to climb alongside Zeus, Odin, Archangel Michael, Lucifer the Fallen Angel, Buddha and others? Are you ready to become a God?]

On 23 March 2033, unexpectedly, these writings appeared before a small minority of people and a gigantic call was conveyed to them. The towers in the perfect architecture formed around the Earth had called them, never to come out again.

These individuals had nothing left to lose, and these calls for those who had everything attracted many people.

James could be counted as one of these people. Unlike those who were devastated and lost everything, he was just chosen. Of course, he had lost many things, but unlike others who had fallen into darkness, he was not yet on that side.

This story happened just before he planned to leave himself in the darkness.

"Shit!"

James' shout echoed through the void, he was standing on the terrace of the building on the concrete at the very edge of the building and staring straight into the living night light, it was obvious that he was going to drop himself down and end his life.

It had been almost 3 years since he had lost his parents in a car accident and now his lover, who was everything to him, had broken up with him because of his lack of financial means.

"It's not my fault I'm not rich!" James suddenly exclaimed, the emptiness in his gaze seemed to indicate that he wanted to end it all.

He hadn't been chosen at all.

He wished he could get into any of the towers that had miraculously started to appear almost four years ago, but it was impossible, if the tower hadn't chosen you, you wouldn't be able to get into it.

James knew this too. What he wanted most was to enter the tower with his lover and leave this damned world behind them.

No one knew what was inside the tower or what was going on, but the only thing that was known was that unless you were chosen, you could not enter the tower, and each chosen individual had to agree to go there once and for all.

On top of losing his family and loved ones, James thought he was incompetent. In fact, unlike most, he was an intelligent and practical thinker, he was not athletic but he did not have a terrible body, he was not handsome but it would be foolish to call him ugly. He really could have been the most average person one could see.

"I'm fed up... I'm fed up with everything....." James said suddenly, the light seemed to have gone completely out of his face, and he could now let himself down from the end of the building.

He was about to take a step when the sign he had always expected to see appeared in front of him:

[You have been chosen!

Dear James Arthur Black, I am honoured to inform you that you have been elected by one of the directors of the tower! The tower is calling you because the eyes of several gods are upon you. I hope you will not refuse this offer and agree to join the game of the gods and take a step towards becoming a god!

JOIN/ REJECT]

James jumped for joy when he saw the writings in front of him and when he stepped back on the floor, his foot slipped awkwardly, it seemed to be the end of him.

"AAAAAAAAAAA!!!'"

James, who had started to fall from the top of the 18-storey building as he screamed, was distracted and his eyes watered from the incoming airflow.

Wherever he looked, the invitation sent to him turned towards the place he was looking at and the invitation began to fade, even if slowly.

"I CAN'T LET THIS THING I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR GO SOON!" James screamed in his mind, but he managed to force his hand to the text in front of him and pressed the "JOIN" option.

With that, James stopped in mid-air. Everything around him began to disappear and every colour faded away.

In just a few seconds, all the colours of reality disappeared and everything turned white.

"What-what's going on?" James muttered and at that very moment, as if in answer to his question, something else appeared in front of his eyes:

[Welcome!

James Arthur Black, I am proud to welcome you to the tower. There are exactly 3 gods who have their eyes on you, I hope you make the right choices and manage to remove all obstacles on your way to becoming a god.

To close the window, click on the cross at the top right, this will direct you to the next action.]

James took a deep breath and exhaled as if he could not believe his eyes when he read these writings in front of him.

"I'm really in the tower...Haha...HAHAHA...HAHAHA!" he shouted and stopped where he was, he didn't need to think about the world he was in before.

After a few seconds of waiting, looking around but seeing nothing, James scratched his head and then noticed the small print at the bottom of the text in front of him:

[To close the window, click on the cross at the top right, this will take you to the next action.]

"So these things [windows] huh? Got it." James said to himself and then closed the window just as instructed, at that very moment a light appeared in the centre of the white area in front of his eyes and things started to come out of the light.

"Are these things....cards?" asked James. Six dozen cards had formed in front of his eyes.

[Time to choose!

James Arthur Black, please make your skill selections. You have a total of 2 cards to choose from. The cards will be shuffled and coloured [orange]. The ranks are in the colours [green], [blue], [purple], [red], [yellow], [black] and [#####] respectively.]

When James closed the window in front of him, he looked at the cards in front of him in a confused way and thought the following words while scratching his head:

"Green? But these cards are different colours?"

James could see the colours of the cards in front of him. They had clearly said that each one would be orange, but he could see everything.

"42 of the green cards, 9 of the blue cards, 8 of the purple cards, 6 of the red cards, 4 of the yellow cards and 3 of the black cards." James thought calmly, constantly looking at the cards and wondering how he could see them.

On the other hand, he was incredibly happy. If the cards in front of him were not mocking him with the colours, he would be able to get two of the three black cards.

With a deep breath, he reached for the first card he wanted to take and grabbed it. As soon as he took the black card in his hand, the card flashed with a light and disappeared, just at that moment, the numbers appeared in front of James' eyes in the lower right:

[1/2]

"Huh...That makes sense," James said, and then he began to look deeply at the two black cards in front of him. Even though he was acting as if he could see what was written on the cards if he looked seriously enough, he suddenly stopped thinking and picked up the other card.

"I hope I chose the right option..." James muttered.

[2/2]

As soon as James saw that the number in the window to his right had gone up to the next level, that window closed and a completely different one opened in front of him:

[Congratulations!

You have taken your first step on your journey to becoming a god. The most important thing about a god is his abilities, a god who is not known for his abilities can never become a god.

To see your abilities, just say [profile].]

Having finished reading this window, James smiled and then closed the window, immediately after which he said 'profile' in a calm voice.

Suddenly another window opened in front of him and he looked at it:

[James Arthur Black

Age: 23

Race: Human

Level 1

Class: -

Skills: 10x Gacha(Godly), Galahad Swordsmanship(Legendary+)

[Statuses]

Strength: 5

Agility: 7

Endurance: 6

Luck: 2

Intelligence: 9

Charisma: 5

Status Points: 0]

James took a deeper look at his profile and was very disappointed in himself, he hadn't expected to be so weak but he was sure that he could still get stronger, that's why he looked at what he should be focusing on right now.

"[0x Gacha (Godly)

Even Hermes himself, who has been gambling with his life since he was a baby, daring to steal Poseidon's Trident and Artemis' arrows, would not attempt such a big gamble. Choices that will surprise even Hermes, known as the master of gambling, are waiting for you!

Depending on the number of monsters killed, you will have a chance to flip Gacha.]

James smiled as soon as he read the ability and then said, "Haha...Asking someone who has nothing left to sacrifice what he has earned...somehow I get excited...."

It was impossible to find out exactly how the ability worked without using it, but that was not what he had to do now, he had to observe his other ability.

[Galahad Swordsmanship(Legendary+)

May your glory be as great as Galahad's, mortal, who was one of the Three Holy Knights who took part in the Holy Grail quest and had the honour of sitting on the dangerous chair of the round table, and who was also lucky enough to attain the swordsmanship of Galahad, one of the 6 great swordsmen of the realm of the gods!

50% increase in understanding of sword techniques.

10% chance for sword strikes to deal critical damage.

A 0.5% chance that sword piercings will cause a bleeding effect.

An increase of 0.01% for practising the aura of the sword.]

After the explanation of the skill, James stood still for a few seconds and then smiled and said, "Swordsmanship of the great Galahad for an Englishman? Hallelujah!" and closed each window in front of him.

As soon as he closed those windows, another one was revealed:

[Excellent!

Congratulations on completing the mini-tutorial. It is possible to earn skill cards along with special quests, special-secret-normal achievements, secret boss monster hunts, epic monster hunts, etc.

Select the difficulty of the main tutorial: Very Easy, Easy, Moderate, Hard, Hell.

After you have made your choice, if you say [continue], the tutorial will begin.]

As James looked at the window in front of him and read what was written, he considered his options. He had wanted to enter the tower for almost 4 years, he had heard people talk about becoming a god, but that was not what interested him.

He just wanted to leave the reality he no longer felt and now he was given a choice.

"Of course....I'll choose the hardest one," James said to himself, and after tapping [Hell], he smiled and said, "Go on."

With that, the whole area in front of him began to change, the whole area was painted black and the following appeared in front of him with white writing:

[Good Luck.]
