It is inevitable that things like this will come sooner or later

As a former native of Earth, and a seasoned veteran who also had once been involved within the game and otaku communities, Ev knew the enthusiastic propensity of her fellow natives towards creating such fan works especially in regards to popular games.

However, never in her life did she expect to become the protagonist this time around.

Well, especially the heroine.

Did I perhaps, treat them too well?

Ev took a deep breath and disconnected from Earths internet.

Perhaps, Ive set the probability of winning a prize in the lottery too high.

With a huff, she specifically tracked down all the players who had discussed about her doujinshi and marked each and every one of them.

Then, she decisively readjusted their probabilities of winning the lotteries, and set them up to an almost impossible chances

The Chosen City, Headquarters of the Natural Hearts Guild.

Having settled all his tasks for the day and used up all his lottery tickets, Li Mu was about to log out to rest back in the real world. However, his plans were disrupted when, suddenly, Demacia hurriedly approached him.

He immediately noticed that his red-haired friends face was etched with excitement.

Hey Bro! Bro! Did you see it? Did you see the video link posted on the chat group!?

Li Mu stopped his actions and replied, What Video? Oh, was it the one where the goddess fought against the Gods of the Orcs?

Yes! That secret recording! Bro, I guarantee you with me as the servers luckiest player, the details revealed in this video will definitely lead to a hidden questline! Whats more, it looks like no one has triggered it yet. Demacia excitedly explained.

Li Mu nodded slightly after listening.

I think so too. In fact, within the next few days, I plan to ask Alice and some other NPCs just to see if I can find out more about the goddesss lost artifacts.

Oh as expected of you, Bro!

Demacia gave him a big thumbs up.

But soon, his friends expression became a bit vulgar.

Hehehe, I didnt expect the goddess to like using vines so much! Bro, that video gave me more material to work with for my next works!

Material for what?

Li Mu raised an eyebrow.

Why, material for doujinshis of course!

Demacia chuckled.

Li Mu looked puzzled.

Doujinshis?

He then paused and glanced at Demacia with a somewhat confused demeanor.

I know youre a part of an anime circle, and you can draw pretty well too. But what does this have to do with doujinshis? WaitAre you drawingdoujinshis of ElvKing?

Heh~ Bro, you might not know this but drawing doujinshi can actually earn you some extra income!

Demacia said proudly.

In fact, I drew a full-color five-page series featuring the Goddess and Demigod Volker. It took me quite a while to finish it, but I got rave reviews on that doujinshi! Plus, I also got quite a few tips online as well! Hehe, seeing that video inspired me to make a sequel since I got new material this time!

Demacia stated as his voice grew more and more excited.

You might not know it, but ElvKing had become so popular on certain sites and with the Goddess being the most popular NPC in the game, naturally works depicting her have also exploded in numbers!

Actually, most new works uploaded on that site feature the Goddess Ev nowadays! But, of course, none are as good as mine! Hahaha! Ive watched and read so many doujinshis by this point that I end up quite an expert in this field, if I say so myself! Hahaha!

Demacia proudly boasted with hands placed on his hips.

Li Mu:

You are really talented, I guess?

After a moment, Li Mu could only squeeze out this sentence in response to his friends revelations. However, soon after, he sneaked over to Demacia, coughed twice, and awkwardly whispered,

Um cough, whats your penname on that site? Do you have a link? Can you share it with me, uhh, for research purposes of course

Men

Theyre all the same.

Of course no problem bro, I gotcha, hehehe.

Demacia slyly chuckled and fiddled with his interface for a few seconds before he sent him a link.

After sending the link to Li Mu, Demacia waved his hand.

Bro, take your time, and remember to give me a thumbs up when youre done! Im heading to the central square to use my lottery tickets in the meantime!

Li Mu, who was about to click on the link, was slightly stunned.

The lottery? You still havent done that yet? The battle ended almost two days ago, right?

Yeah, well, dont I have some other tasks to do? Ive been pretty busy these past two days after all.

Speaking of which, I was included in the recent task rankings leaderboard and earned a few more lottery tickets. Now, I have ten, and Im planning to draw them all at once.

Demacia explained.

Ten tickets at once! Dont you think Ive got a real shot at snagging a legendary item this time?

The red-haired said with great confidence.

Well, it kinda depends on whether youre lucky today or not. If your lucks good, youll hit the jackpot. If not, then tough luck. Worst-case scenario, youll get junk noob equipment on each of your ten tickets.

Li Mu shook his head.

Junk noob equipment

For players, this was the most disappointing reward in the lottery prize pool.

In fact, players coined the term junk noob equipment themselves.

More precisely, it was the starter equipment given by the goddess to players at the start of their playthroughthings like wooden swords, wooden armor, or hemp robes and ironwood daggers.

As starter items with no additional special properties, these equipment are simple and ordinary, except for some specific effectiveness against the undead.

Eventually, the veteran players jokingly referred to them as junk noob gear

The only purpose for players who won such an equipment was to offer it back to the goddess in exchange for some measly contribution points50 CP per item to be exact which was a pitiful amount.

So, no one wanted to draw such things from their hard-earned lottery tickets.

Of course, the probability of drawing these junk items was also relatively very low.

Usually, most would simply won things such as purple epic-class equipment, meditation techniques, resurrection coins, contribution points, and the like

After hearing Li Mus reminder, Demacia smacked his chest in a confident manner.

Dont worry, Bro! Ive always been lucky!

Well if youre that confident then Ill wish you all the besthopefully youll get a legendary golden item unlike me.

Li Mu sighed, feeling a bit regretful.

Heh, I have a good feeling that Ill get results in my tickets! Dont worry Bro, Ill gift you one if I happen to get two sets of the same item!

Demacia cheerfully said before waving his hand.

Well, lets cut our talk here for today! Im going now!

With that, Demacia happily ran off.

Demacia quickly ran towards the central square and faced the towering World Tree in the distance after arriving. He then paused for a moment to catch his breath before closing his eyes to began praying.

A couple of seconds passed and the interface for the exchange store began forming within his mind.

Demacia then eagerly moved to the lottery section, whilst looking at the shining golden prizes indicated the lottery prize pool.

His eyes lit up with anticipation as he said,

Legendary Golden prizes! Here I come!

With his heart pounding, Demacia spent one ticket to start the lottery draw.

The lottery prize pool then faintly lit up in front of him as it emitted a white light.

Seeing that white light, Demacias heart suddenly skipped a beat, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared

White light indicatesthe most rubbish reward.

And sure enough, after the light dissipated, Demacia found a pair of wooden shoes in his hand.

Darn it! isnt this the starter footgear? I actually drew a junk equipment!

Demacia looked somewhat frustrated.

However, he quickly adjusted his mood:

Theres no need to hurry! Its just the start, Ill definitely get lucky in my next draws!

He smacked his cheek and whispered to himself, Goddess, bless my ticket so that I draw a legendary prize.

Then, he used up another lottery ticket.

Another white light floated by in front of him, and Demacia got piece of clothing after the light dissipated.

It was a hemp robe, bright green one to be exact.

Demacia:

Why is it another junk gear? Moreover its a mage gear that I cannot use?! Curse it!

He showed a puzzled look after tucking away his second reward.

No, no the probability of getting two consecutive junk items is quite low. Stay positive! Im definitely lucky! Now that Ive used up all my bad luck, the next rewards will surely be good instead!

Demacia encouraged himself and spent another ticket for the third time.

Then afterwards

He got a wooden starter staff in his hand.

Demacia:

This lottery prize pool is so toxic!

His expression turned grim as a ferocious glint began to emit within his eyes.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he spent yet another lottery ticket after a minute.

This time

He won a wooden starter dagger.

Demacia:

Iwhat in the gosh darn hell is this!?

He couldnt help but let out a swear.

What kind of cursed rewards is this?!

Could it bethat my odds are not good right now?

Looking at the remaining six tickets he had left, Demacia hesitated to continue.

He thought for a moment and rubbed his hands as he began praying towards various deities including Guanyin Bodhisattva, The Jade Emperor, Buddhaand even the goddess Ev herself, then decided to pursue on and used up all his remaining tickets.

In front of him, the prize pool reappeared yet again as it started emitting light once again.

Alas, seconds later, a vast expanse of white light flashed before Demacias eyes

A moment later, Demacias eyes were utterly dumbfounded as he looked at the large array of starter equipment and basic meditation methods that appeared in front of him.

After a few seconds of silence, his body wobbled and plummeted as if power entirely left his body as he crashed down towards the pile of junk equipment and mournfully shouted

My ten lottery tickets!!

Why am I so unlucky!?

264

WHY AM I SO UNLUCKY?
