Umamusume's days are numbered

There were so many miscellaneous things after the competition, but now I can finally see what I've finally unlocked!

This is the Tier 2 shop that Platinum players have been eagerly anticipating!

First, upon opening the system interface, several completed achievements are immediately displayed prominently.

[Complete three big-reward matches (3/3)] (Winning the championship will earn a three-star rating) (200 carrots reward + ?)

[Complete the Yayoi Prize (1/1)] (Winning the prize will earn you a three-star rating) (100 carrots reward + unlock the level 2 shop interface)

After finishing this race, I surprisingly unlocked two achievements in one go.

Upon closer reflection, that makes sense.

The Hong Kong special race is not graded, so it doesn't qualify as a major prize. Counting the races I've participated in since my debut—one Saudi Arabian Royal Cup, one Kyoto Sintra Championship, and this Yayoi Sho—that makes exactly three.

Hehe, I can't wait to see what the rewards are.

Platinum didn't rush to unlock the second-tier shop; instead, he licked his lips and looked at the three-star rewards from the three matches.

You know what I mean, right? That's a question mark, a question mark!

Who can resist the temptation of a question mark?

Platinum immediately chose to redeem. Then, he felt a sudden weight in his hand. Platinum looked down and was stunned.

Ah no, it is indeed a very important thing, but how should I put it... it's not that important.

It exists in a superposition of importance and unimportance; in layman's terms, it's like a chicken rib.

It was a thick stack of documents. Platinum flipped through them and saw many familiar and unfamiliar characters written densely, with his own headshot printed on them. There was one document written in English that Platinum could finally understand a little bit—it turned out to be a passport.

No wonder when I read my parallel world self's diary, I noticed she stopped mentioning accommodation and survival issues. It seems that by then, she had obtained the necessary identification documents and was finally able to live a normal life.

But it has absolutely no effect on me now.

These are different identification documents from various countries, including a Japanese driver's license... By the way, can minors really have driver's licenses?

Wait a minute, Maru Zenki bought so many sports cars... her driver's license...

Platinum started sweating profusely just thinking about it.

Either he's been driving without a license, or Maruzensky is... too old.

Don't think about it too much, don't think about it too much.

Platinum wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly shifted his attention to the next achievement.

The real show is about to begin!

Unlock the Tier 2 Shop!

The level 2 shop I've always dreamed of!

Platinum's trembling finger reached out to click on the shop interface, but then he suddenly withdrew his hand. Platinum clasped his hands together in prayer, muttering "Buddha, please bless me" and other such phrases, before finally opening the shop interface.

Under Platinum's eager gaze, the original quick access bar on the store interface shifted to the left, and two locked quick access bars appeared on the right.

One of the chains trembled and finally broke completely.

The Tier 2 shop has been unlocked.

[New event metrics and achievements are being updated; please do not log out.]

[Tier 3 store loaded]

The annihilation system has been unlocked.

Bai Jinwu clicked away the pop-ups and entered the secondary store interface.

I couldn't wait to browse through the second-level store. Compared to the first-level store, the second-level store had significantly fewer items. Although I didn't intend to buy everything at once, I could at least get a basic understanding.

Platinum closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and gritted her teeth.

Then he jumped up on the bed, leaping three feet high.

"Zinima, refund the money!"

Well... it is indeed a store, and its products are indeed out of step with the times.

But this product...

Platinum even suspected that the system was created by Todd. It does everything he says, but in ways you never expect.

[Bloodline of Struggle: Fortified City]

[Bloodline of Struggle: The Demon Lord Awakens on the Seventh Night]

[Era: Royal Guard]

···

The level 2 shop, that's fucking the skin shop.

Episode 151: The Gift of Fate

"Zinima, refund the money!"

Platinum jumped off the bed, cursing, and kicked the wall. Then, hopping on one leg, he covered his kicked leg and lay back on the bed.

This wall is really thick; it's definitely an extra-thick version designed specifically for Uma Musume Girls.

You can't blame Platinum for disturbing the peace in the middle of the night; the system is just too awful.

No, ah, when you've worked hard for half a year, overcome many difficulties and obstacles to finally achieve your goal, only to find out that all you get is a job selling clothes... that's really disillusioning.

It's as absurd as when you were little and made a promise with your parents that if you got first place in your class, they would take you on a trip, only to find that they had long forgotten about it when you actually got it.

Platinum directly caused his Dao Heart to shatter.

"I'm not playing anymore... Waaah... I'm not playing anymore... This isn't fair..." Platinum sat on the bed, sobbing and rolling around in tears.

Although she had expected that the solution to the soul dissolution syndrome wouldn't be so simple, Platinum still felt she couldn't hold back when reality actually showed it.

After crying, Platinum sniffed, sighed, and then continued to look at the new features unlocked by the system.

What else can we do? Life goes on.

Just as Platinum had anticipated... she had already prepared equipment that the Tier 2 shop couldn't solve her problems. And it wasn't entirely hopeless; the three anchor points and the masked gypsy's prophecy clearly pointed to the Soul Dissolution Symptom—Platinum had been pursuing a two-pronged approach all along, precisely to prevent this from happening.

Even if we take a step back and think about it the worst, his system shop does indeed have medicine that can cure soul dissolution, and Platinum also has a premonition that it's impossible to unlock it around the time of the Yayoi Sho. Because if we follow the normal race schedule of Uma Musume, the race girls participating in the Yayoi Sho are all just rookies. His system is clearly encouraging him to keep participating in races, and in order to motivate him to complete the system achievements, there must be a carrot constantly dangling in front of him.

Overall, because of the psychological expectation, although it felt difficult to hold on this time, Platinum managed to hold on a bit.

Although he managed to keep a straight face, Platinum still wanted to curse the system's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Sobbing and wailing, Platinum continued flipping through the pages.

I scrolled to the end of the level 2 shop, then clicked on the level 3 shop, and Platinum was surprised to find that it was actually open! However, I still couldn't buy anything from it.

You can see it, but you can't buy it. Hey, they're just keeping you hanging. At this moment, Platinum deeply felt the system's malice.

As a result, Platinum couldn't tear himself away from the items sold in the level 3 shop after just one glance.

Senzu Beans

A magical food from a distant world. A wondrous crop cultivated by immortals; just eating one can quickly heal all injuries and restore vitality.

"--Actually, its main function is that it keeps you from getting hungry after eating. It's really convenient."

[Alluka's Zoldyck Request Ticket]

A scroll from a distant, dark world. Who wrote this to their beloved brother? If you make a wish upon him using this scroll, perhaps it will help you fulfill your long-cherished desire without any side effects...?

"—The question is, where do we find Alluka?"

【Vega flower-shaped hair clip】

An ornament from a distant world. Shaped like six pale blue petals. Once possessed incredible power. Called "the rejection of all things" by a being who once stood on the throne of heaven, it is an authority residing in the realm of gods. May it soothe any wound.

"---Wait a minute, what's Orihime going to do without her hair clip? This is a copy, right? Tell me it's just a copy! I don't want the editors from Jump coming knocking on my door!"

Wait a minute, the complaints above weren't made by Platinum, but rather by someone else who wrote those comments at the bottom of the product description.

Platinum also wanted to say the same thing.

It's completely interconnected with other worlds! Although I once hoped that technological products surpassing those of our original world would appear in the future, this is too far off, it has completely entered the realm of metaphysics!

Putting aside Senzu Beans, which can't even cure heart disease, there's also that wish-granting ticket with no known location, and what's with that hair clip?

Tell me what happened?! What did you do to Orihime Inoue?! Ichigo Kurosaki isn't coming after me, is he?!

Putting aside the exorbitant price, even if I had that carrot, I wouldn't dare use it...

Couldn't this damn shop sell some useful items like alarm clocks that fit its worldview?

Continue scrolling down.

Godolphin's Arabian Cloak

A robe, lost during a chase, its origins unknown. An essential item for charades, it has a shimmering effect. While it doesn't make you invisible, the cloak, blessed by a goddess, will make you look more like a gypsy.

"—Who threw this thing into the store?"

"—Who threw this thing into the store?"

Platinum covered his head and roared in anger, just like the comments on the store interface.

He patted his chest to calm the turbulent emotions in his heart. Platinum forced himself to continue scrolling down.

[A panacea from the three goddesses]

These are blessed little pills. Although the craftsmanship isn't the most exquisite, they are imbued with the boundless love of the three goddesses. In this world, there should be no illness or injury that these little pills cannot cure.

"—Could you make them all the same size?"

Platinum's eyes lit up. He wiped his eyes, glanced at the price, and a smile began to spread across his face.

Stable.

That's it!

This is the true dawn.

Although the level 3 shop hasn't been unlocked yet, knowing that this panacea exists is more important than anything else.

This is much more reliable than hoping for some level 2 store.

Although the description on the store interface is quite dubious, Platinum has experienced firsthand the store's incredible power.

Platinum has no doubt that it can bring over its parallel universe self's diary tomorrow, since it can even get its parallel universe self's diary from there.

Since the store claims that it can cure all diseases, then it must be able to cure all diseases!

Life suddenly had something to look forward to. Bai Jin was no longer the girl who was crying just now. Humming a little tune, she swayed back onto the bed, feeling incredibly happy.

Now there's only one problem—how do I unlock the level 3 store?

Sure enough, after Platinum returned to the achievements screen, the achievements system, which had been silent since the Hong Kong trip, suddenly expanded downwards again.

[Complete the Cherry Blossom Festival within the year (0/1)] (Winning the championship will earn a three-star rating) (500+1000 carrots reward)

[Complete the Satsuki Prize (0/1)] (Winning the prize will earn a three-star rating) (150 + 150 carrots reward)

···

[Complete the Chrysanthemum Award (0/1)] (Winning the championship will earn a three-star rating) (150 + 150 carrots reward)

[Complete the Classic Triple Crown Event (0/3)] (Winning the championship earns a three-star rating) (500 carrots reward + unlocks the Tier 3 shop)

Episode 152 The goal is the classic treble.

This time, the achievements displayed were far more numerous than anything he had seen before, forming a densely packed and detailed list. Platinum glanced through it and realized that almost every well-known competition he had ever heard of could be found there.

However, the rewards are all very monotonous, all carrots... Although carrots are useful, could you please give more? Are you trying to fob me off?
