Ever so slightly wondered what will happen if you are given an imaginary power from fictional work? What will you do?
My power is one of those system thingies and I can use magic and gain skills. Now that's some good stuff I tell ya. It makes life very convient. But if ever so slightly getting systemly very very very randomly is possible I concluded very quickly other cliched stuff is very fucking possible.
World ending being ravaged by alien invaders, Otherwordly monsters, Heck even rainbow shitting demons might be possible. Hence.... I trained like mad.
Even when I felt like dying after all that training I increased it more after improving by limiting my powers to be much more weaker than a human which in reverse allowed me to be stronger. And I didn't train like everything I have.
That's would be asking for a quick death. I would major my sword mastery for strong foundation and I would further strengthen it with magic of all sides covering for most likely possibility of me needing a certain magic.
It was so painful and hard. Training my body and studying all possibilities of magic til I collapse. I even did still mingled with society even after that. Studying all kinds languages and learning about survival, wild life and nature. With my already exhausted mind I studied til the point of feeling my sanity breaking ever so slowly.
But still seeing my stats and skills growing I felt motivation increase. To everyone around me I looked just easy-going having an easy normal life. But the only thing I can't limit is two things. Luck and Charm. Luck seems to work extremely in my favor and let's things pass normally but Charm?

It gave me more trouble than it's worth. Especially after I became a clown/trickster. And increasing the number of girls with clown fetish hundred times.
The reason I started clown business is to cover up to a certain extent my capabilities in other areas. I wanted to give the world of my appearance of clown to mislead them of my appearance and demeanor. And for trickster, magician for more friendly terms, it's practically easy for me to do tricks considering my dexterity and masteries. Heck I even can bring a whole whale just by a snap of my finger right there.
And due to my handsome appearance with clown makeup plus my different than norm tricks I quickly got famous. And that's where girls with clown fetish started appearing. Not the creepy clown mind you. Just ridiculously handsome clowns became a trend. And I'm the fucking victim of many doujins appearing of me as the clown.
My co-workers teased me for that a lot. And when I used my abilities I found out that most of my female co-workers have clown fetish too and read many doujins of me. I then travelled around the world and investigated a lot of things all whilst training and doing shows of tricks.
And by reaching the age of 26 and having system for 10 years already.... I fucking realized there was absolutely nothing like those stories. I don't know how I felt.
I got the skill [Divine Fate] after learning much more of [Astral Magic] during my travels. [Divine Fate] allows me to see crossroads of choices I choose and the results of those choices. And the more I saw it the more it dawned upon me very fucking brightly.
I got fucking bamboozled so hard. Years of training so hard that I bled and cried many times myself as I collapsed gone like that because of fucking nothing?
And it was then for the first time in my life I released my limiter and with a wooden sword I uprooted a whole forest with a mere swing. I had to use magic to fix the forest. I left unsatisified while being unable to vent my anger after a mere swing.
Right after that... I met a Goddess.
