Honkai Get's Star Railed Chapter 1 (Patreon)
Content
"Goooooood Morning Vietnam!" A loud voice rang out from the tv as I sat down next to my sponsor who was slurping down a massive bowl of ramen while watching a small tv on his desk that was playing that very same movie.
"You know one good part of being a cosmic being?" My sponsor asked with a small smile as he put down his fork.
I shrugged and said, unsurely. "You can travel the infinite worlds? Make friends with heros uncounting and plow beautiful women of all shapes and sizes?"
My sponsor nodded and said with a wry smile. "Well, you aren't wrong for sure. But no man. The biggest success in my story was being able to resurrect Robin Williams and Alan Rickman, give them an extra forty years of lifespan, and have them direct another couple of dozen years of actually good entertainment in my world."
That was... Literally not the answer I was looking for, and I just asked curiously. "What kind of world did you reincarnate into then?" As my sponsor was an alternate version of myself who was likewise reincarnated after his death and gained the power to change his life.
My sponsor and alternate chuckled as he said. "Heh, my world was... Complicated. Basically, you take the logic that every story is its own world, and as people in my world make more stories and worlds. With the power of faith in the people who enjoyed it, we could go into those worlds or just take things from them."
He shrugged and said with a slight grimace. "It was... An interesting world, though it was constantly at risk of the worlds we imagined into existence attacking said world, and I almost died the very first day I arrived when some weird version of Godzilla and some off-brand Power Ranger mecha thing went to battle on the other side of the city I got dropped off in."
He shook his head and then said. "Anyway, back to you. You will be going to Honkai Star Rail in any case. And there won't be much in the way of universe changes you will notice I suppose. So let's get down to your cheat."
I then spoke up quickly. "Can you make me Gilgamesh with Thanos's gauntlet that has the Omnitrix built into it?"
My sponsor's face twitched before he chuckled and said flatly. "No... And fuck you for asking, haha."
Even I laughed a bit before I said with my own helpless chuckle. "Alright man, you are sending me into the anime/gatcha version of warhammer 40k. You can't be sending me away with like the powers of a Quazar, are you?"
My sponsor snorted as he said. "As... Fucking funny as it would be to imagine Herta and Ruan Mei's face at hearing the news, you can break the laws of reality via slurping down titty milk. No, no I did not plan on that."
And without wasting a moment, pulled out a glowing orb of purple potential from a spatial tear in the air and without even looking at me. He just flicked it into my chest as he went back to his ramen while I was shuddering at having whatever the fuck he threw into me.
After a looong like thirty seconds of feeling my soul being bad touched by whatever cheat he had tossed into said soul. I finally relaxed, and with a sigh I sagged into the fantastic couch my sponsor had in his office.
"You good? Well, you got any questions before I send you on your way?" He asked curiously.
I exhaled heavily before I considered his question for a long moment, before I realized I didn't have any major questions besides asking what my cheat was.
"What is my cheat?" I asked simply.
He likewise said flatly. "The Chaos Gatcha, it's a good little system that doesn't affect its host as we Jake's have learned that systems with personalities and such will undermine their hosts more than thirty percent of the time."
I had read previous stories in my old life using the Chaos Gatcha, so I generally got what was going on. Then, as my sponsor waved his hand to make a porta,l I asked quickly.
"Bro... One last question. Which waifu did you pick up from your world first?"
My sponsor paused as I realized was I floating off the couch and about to be yeeted into said portal.
He then chuckled and said with a knowing smile. "The world I came from, had some Terror Infinity aspects so I started by invading a lower-level world to get destiny points. And in which... I walked into High School of the Dead alone, and I walked out with the big titty nurse Marikawa, as well as Seako Busujima in my arms."
Even as I was sucked away into the portal, I could only salute my fellow man of culture, who just laughed again at seeing my solemn salute as I was taken away.
With a crackle of power, my vision was filled with the view of endless swirling rainbows, and my mind faded away as I was taken through space and time.
I was unconscious for who knows how long until a feminine voice spoke out. "Dan Heng, you give CPR to the guy. I will check this grey-haired girl."
Feeling the... Rough hand of another dude on my jaw. My eyes snapped open as I hurriedly put my hands against the chest of the cold-faced young man who was leaning down towards me.
"Not needed! You woke me up with your voice!" I said hurriedly with a cough leaving me as I realized with a bit of back pain, that I had gotten thrown out of the portal on the other end and had landed heavily.
Then another feminine voice spoke out. "Who... Who are you, and where am I? Who am I?"
The two standing people looked over towards the girl with grey hair, and there was a pause before the other two looked back to me.
The male of the two had very distinctly asian features with sharp eyebrows and a cool expression, even though it was clear he was slightly worried about us to an extent.
While the woman next to him had pink hair, a perk attitude, and was all around a pretty girl.
"I still have my memories!... Even though my head hurts really badly and I have little idea how I got here." I said with a grimace as I sat up properly.
Then, Dan Heng' the rather cold-faced guy in front of me, spoke firmly. "I am sorry for any pain you both may be feeling. But we need to keep moving, we are currently on a Space Station that is under attack now!"
With Dan Heng's help, I stood up, as I knew I couldn't just sit around, obviously.
But as I stood up, I could feel the Chaos Gotcha within myself stirring as it pinged out.
[User has successfully met the protagonists of the world. 1 Silver ticket]
And along with that, I also realized I had three more silver tickets as well as two gold and a platinum ticket... I had no idea WHY I had those tickets, whether it be like one of the Aeons noticing me already being part of the plot.
Or otherwise, it's just something to get me started.
Still I mentally pulled all the tickets at once as I had no reason to wait. Otherwise I had the chance of dying by some random voidranger if I got unlucky!
The first silver tickets gave me.
[Durable]|Common Trait|[You are fairly tough, granting you a slight increase to your defense and letting you take more punishment.]
[Ambidexterous]|Common Trait|You are perfectly ambidexterous, you can use both of your arms and hands as if they were both dominant hands. The same applies to all of your limbs, perfectly balanced, as all things should be.]
[Homerun]|Uncommon Item|An inordinately durable baseball that has vastly increased knockback when it hits an object or target, as it imbues them with increased velocity at the moment of contact.]
Both of the traits were passive traits which were just great for helping me survive this upcoming trial.
Then there was the gold tier tickets which gave me better things in a second item as well as my first active ability.
[Ring of Favor and Protection]|Rare Item|Dark Souls - A ring symbolizing the favor and protection of the goddess Fina, known in legend to possess "fateful beauty". This ring boosts its wearer's Health, Stamina, and Endurane, but breaks if ever removed.]
[Dragon Scales]|Elite Ability|Allows you to grow incredibly tough dragon scales over your body, due to the nature of dragon scales they also reduce any elemental damage you take while also being more durable than any human material. Its toughness scales with your physical stats.]
And finally the single platnium ticket I got hit my mind with my facing pinching at the power itself.
[Typhoon]|Elite Ability|Allows you to manifest and control Typhoons at will, creating miniature ones as direct attacks or unleashing them on an entire area for massive devastation.]
That active ability... It made me feel like I should have been reincarnated as a Lord Ravager or something?
How could I fight some shitty little voidranger or small mob and as it rushes at me... I am just like. 'Foul monster, typhoon upon theee!'
Like how could I explain using even a restricted typhoon on a space station or a city?
"We should take these two to the station center along with taking any other scientist and survivors we can find. Come on you two, I March 7th am here to save the day!" March 7th said proudly as she placed a hand over her chest.
I looked to Stelle who blinked and just shrugged before nodding and said as she scratched her head. "Uhh alright. I guess we should follow you two."
Then Dan Heng added quietly as we moved out of the sterile empty storage room. "My name is Dan Heng as well. What is your name seeing as you still have your memory?"
"My name is Jake Bariss. It's nice to meet you three." I said.
And as March 7th and Dan Heng asked Stelle if she remembered anything at all. I subtly slipped the Ring of Favor and Protection onto my ring finger on my right hand while I kept the Home Run baseball in my jacket pocket.
Then as though in relation to my concern of not having a decent ability to defend myself. Six void ranger's came into view. A humanoid monster with blades for arms and swirling black energy for a body charged down the long hall's curve with super human speed!
And without waiting, I pulled at my Typhoon creating ability, while the others had paused in their talking. All three looked on in interest as a small compressed swirling tornado of water formed in front of us.
Then with a flex of my will, the tornado of water shoot forward and the charging voidrangers smashed into the high-speed spinning tornado of water.
I had zero idea how fast the tornado was spinning, nor if there was any extra magical nonsense going on to make it do more damage.
But I could see that the void rangers who tried to run past the typhoon were quickly sucked into the ten-foot-wide swirling tube of air and water that made the surrounding tunnel vibrate.
"Ha! Look at this!" I heard March 7th callout, and then from my side a zipping arrow of ice shot past and hit... The pieces of the void rangers that were trying to claw out of the typhoon. But she sent a powerful arrow of ice into the typhoon itself.
And with an ear ringing, grinding noise. I saw the water in the typhoon flash freeze, while the typhoon kept spinning at high speeds.
The typhoon itself became a swirling blender of icy blades that tore apart those void rangers... And the surrounding walls, before I could mentally dismiss the typhoon with blades of rainbow colored ice being shot into the surrounding walls with loud crunches.
Several of the blades actually pierced the walls as well!
'Uhh... Hopefully, Herta doesn't bill me for the damages.' I thought helplessly.
Then March 7th clapped my shoulder and said excitedly. "Woohoo! Did you guys see me and Jake's awesome combo move, haha!"
And Dan Heng, being the straight man of the group. Said without any inflection. "I would hope that Mr. Welt and Miss Himiko doesn't see that either... Imagine Pom Pom's reaction should you both practise that move on the Express."
In the corner of my eye I could see March 7th shudder at the thought before she giggled nervously. "Ha... Yeah woudn't go well would it hehe."
Still, I cleared my throat and said. "I will try to control and group up the enemies, you guys can just kill them if you can?"
Dan Heng likewise nodded and said firmly. "That is acceptable. Come on, we need to move through the Curio section to get to the main section of the Space Station."
And I remembered that it was the Curio Section in which little old Stelle who was following us like a lost puppy was going to get her unbreakable baseball bat.
