SSS-Rank Extra: I Got a Chaos System-Chapter 1: Isekai’d and Scammed by a Gacha

Kazuki's open his eyelids with great difficulty, dull ached throbbed in his head. He groaned, raising a hand to his forehead.

"Where... am I?" he mumbled.

The damp, cold ground bit into his back. The smell of earthly and musty, dirt whiffed into air. suddenly a chilly breeze blew, brushing against his skin.

He pushed himself up, rocks scraping his palms. Shadows stretched and twisted across the walls.

"A cave? Seriously?" His voice echoed, laced with confusion and irritation. "What is this? A discount isekai setup?"

As if on cue, a glowing screen flickered into existence before right infront of his vision.

[Congratulations! "Kazuki," you have been chosen as the heir of the Chaos System.]

[For more instructions, open your status screen.]

Kazuki blinked. Once. Twice.

"A status screen? A system?" The realization hit him like a isekai truck. His breath caught. "No way... I'm in a fantasy world?"

His heart pounded, excitement swelling in his chest. Back in his previous life, he had been just another office drone, drowning in a cycle of work, cheap convenience store meals, and late-night gaming marathons. No social life. No adventure. Just the dull hum of existence.

But now—

He clenched his fists. This was his moment. This was where the overpowered protagonist arc began!

"STATUS!" he shouted, half-expecting dramatic golden light to burst from the heavens.

Nothing.

A second passed.

Then, with an underwhelming shimmer, the screen lazily appeared before him.

Kazuki stared. Then squinted.

"...Are you kidding me?"

No legendary sword. No god-tier stats. Not even a starter skill?

He clicked his tongue. "Tch. I thought I'd be OP since I got isekai'd. Where's my cheat skill? My army of waifus?! The hell is this beginner-tier trash?"

Frustrated, he tapped the [Quest Available] icon. A new screen popped up.

Kazuki's stomach churned..

"...Death?"

The word glowed ominously in bright red, surrounded by tiny pixelated skulls.

A cold sweat ran down his back. The cave suddenly felt darker, the air heavier. Even the distant chirping of crickets sounded like an ominous funeral march.

"...I could actually die?" He swallowed hard. "What kind of tutorial is this?!"

A long beat of silence.

Chewing on his lips, he shook his head. "Nah. Screw it. How tough could it be?"

With that, he pushed himself up.

The first step felt like the longest.

His footsteps crunched against the hard soil, the sound of pebbles hitting echoing through the cave.

The second step. A distant chittering echoed.

His shoulders tensed as his eyes darted around.

The third. Something shifted in the shadows. Watching.

The fourth. Fifth. Sixth. He swore something moved behind him—but he didn't dare look back.

Then, just ahead—light.

Silver glow of moon entered from the cave's entrance.

Behind it branches reached out to the night sky like bony fingers. A cold wind carried distant howls, sending a shiver down his spine.

Kazuki licked his dry lips. "Just few more steps..."

A loud piercing screech echoed through the cave, it tore through the air.

"GAH!" Kazuki yelped, diving to the ground and covering his head. His pulse slammed against his ribs.

Silence.

Slowly, he lifted his head.

A swarm of bats flapped past him, vanishing into the night.

"...Seriously?" He let out a shaky breath and sat up. "Did the system just try to jumpscare me?!"

In a response, a new screen popped up.

[Congratulations on completing your first mission!]

[Gained: 100 XP]

[Level 1 → 2]

[Unlock a skill by spinning the Gacha!]

Kazuki blinked. "Wait... what?"

Another screen materialized, displaying a large circular wheel divided into colorful sections. A shiny red button sat at its center.

"...You cannot be serious."

The system cheerfully responded.

[For fair play and to ensure your skill is based on luck! Let's play the Gacha (>−•) !]

Kazuki glared at the screen. "This is some next-level bullshit gacha sh*t scam."

The button gleamed invitingly.

He groaned. "...Fine."

With a reluctant sigh, his hand hovered and he pressed the button.

The wheel spun.

Faster. Faster. Colors blurred together.

Kazuki held his breath.

Slower... slower... until finally—

Ding!

[Congratulations! Skill acquired: Exploding Chicken Summon.]

Kazuki stared.

Silence.

A long, painful silence.

Then, the only word that escaped his lips was:

"...F**k."

A triumphant banner flashed across the screen, complete with tiny cartoon chickens throwing confetti.

[Congratulations, Lucky Player! You have obtained a legendary poultry-based destruction technique! Prepare to unleash feathery chaos!]

Kazuki ran a hand down his face. "You. Cannot. Be. Serious."

A tiny chicken emoji appeared in the corner of the screen. It winked smugly.

Kazuki wanted to scream.
