An Ordinary Civil Servant’s Transfer to Another World A Gacha-Dependent Life Relying on Luck
At the carriage station, I heard about an inn called the Lantern. As its name suggested, it was a small inn with an old lantern hanging by the entrance.
When I pushed open the door and stepped inside, the wooden floor creaked softly underfoot. The interior had a cozy, homely atmosphere, and behind the counter, a middle-aged woman who appeared to be the landlady was busily working.
“I’d like a room.”
Kazuto Suzuki, a 32-year-old ordinary local government employee, had always aspired to the stability of a civil servant job. However, he found himself stuck in a monotonous and unfulfilling grind, burdened by inefficient tasks and endless paperwork. His only hobby was playing mobile games, where he spent his modest salary—conveniently labeled "average"—on gacha pulls, chasing that elusive jackpot.
One day, Kazuto suddenly found himself summoned to another world. But it wasn’t just him; four high school students, two boys and two girls, were also summoned alongside him. They were young, energetic, and visibly thrilled about their new adventure, like protagonists straight out of a light novel. Meanwhile, Kazuto could only think, "Why me? Why am I even here...?" Without any special knowledge, combat skills, or companions to rely on, all Kazuto has is his gacha-based luck skill—a mechanic that feels eerily familiar to his pastime in the real world. Now, armed with nothing but his love for gacha and a desire for a more exciting and fulfilling life than the one he left behind, this ordinary middle-aged man’s journey in a fantastical other world begins.
