1 Transmigate after getting slapped by Lady Luck, bitten by spider and...

[From now on, you will work with us].

"..."

I did not respond to the woman's words.

(Is this woman a fool?)

...

..

.

I am a normal boy but I can say that my memory is very good.

It was the best day of my life, today was my graduation day, I would never have to see my stupid classmates again.

I was happy for some reason, the second to last goal on my list was finally accomplished.

I didn't have to pretend to get along with them in order to keep up appearances and form useful connections for the future.

I returned home after a cumbersome celebration in which I wasted three hours of my time, I didn't have much time left after all.

I didn't like celebrations but today was a "special" date, today I would commit suicide, it was the third time I would try it.

I opened the door of my silent house.

No one was there, everyone had left before me.

My mother died the day of my birth during childbirth and five years ago my father had died after a painful battle with cancer.

A few days ago my dog and parrot had also died.

I walked slowly to my room as these memories plagued my mind, there wasn't much to stop me.

My parents had inherited several things to me, beauty, money and some diseases and problems, the colon cancer whose hereditary probability was so abysmal, the culprit of my father's death, also threatened my life.

The cancer had developed so quietly to the point that the date of my death was carved in stone, I didn't have long to live.

I sat up in bed and turned on the old computer that had been with me for the last few years, the last memory of my father and mother, an obsolete computer that made sounds like a spaceship every time I turned it on, but it still worked despite the years.

I opened the browser while I wandered through my options.

What was the best or quickest way to commit suicide?

I'm not the most creative person so I decided to look on reddit....

But suddenly, for some reason an ad appeared on the screen covering it almost completely, something strange since there were almost 10 Adblocks and 30 protection programs installed.

For several months they had worked perfectly and had never failed, until today.

And well, here we are, drag the mouse and just hold the cursor over the ad and it opens.

[Do you want to fulfill all your dreams? So, work for me!]

[Lady Luck invites you to her faction [Primordial Chaos]]

[Do you accept?]

Unexpectedly it looked like a chat room, for several minutes I tried to solve the problem but failed miserably.

I just sighed and typed.

(The user you are trying to contact is not available~)

[...]

[Congratulations, you are the 1,000,000th user and won a trip to the reincarnation cycle, in a few moments you will be picked up, it is recommended to hold your breath~...]

Some hacker with a lot of time on his hands, definitely, a very Chunni one indeed.

What was that about [Primordial Chaos]? It sounded a bit silly.

After that message there was no further response, the computer shut down, time to abandon this ship, the computer was already invaded.

Maybe all my information was stolen, I was upset and embarrassed for two different reasons, there was a lot of information that should not come to light.

Many unfortunate things had happened to me throughout my life and at some point I became desensitized to these kinds of events.

I quickly calmed down and moved apathetically.

Should I donate all my money?

It was better to do that before the hacker stole all the money from my accounts. Or maybe it has already happened

With that thought I pulled out my smart phone and unlocked it.

My fingers stopped dead in their tracks as my head started to hurt.

Ughh... my phone slipped through my fingers until it hit the floor, fortunately no damage was done.

I held my head and fell onto the bed, even my lungs squeezed painfully as if I was short of air.

...

Wait, what is that sound, a whistling sound? No, it sounds like a speeding truck.

It also smells like smoke.

I touched my slightly bloodied arms, there were no wounds to the naked eye, but they burned painfully, the blood was genuine.

The hairs were also bristling for some reason, a sign of bad premonition.

I also felt a shiver down my back at the same time as a knot formed in my throat, as if a noose was strangling me.

My legs were shaking uncontrollably as I tried to move.

I even began to hallucinate, it was impossible for a truck to fly, right?

My eyes fell on the only window in my room, my room was located on the third floor of my house.

A light blinded me before I could do anything, there was no after, before I fainted I felt thin arms wrapped around my back... yes, just a hallucination before I lost consciousness.

...

..

.

That brings us to the opening scene.

[Congratulations xxxx, from now on you will be working with me... I mean, for us, you can call me The Lucky Goddess.]

"...", the woman's smile widened as she introduced herself.

In an office...

A table separated us as we looked at each other.

"I just died, didn't I?"

[In short, you died, you caught on too fast], the golden eyes of the woman in front of me shone friendly, possibly she was the culprit.

"So, that truck..."

[It brought you here, it's an important member of our group.]

"And that lightning..."

[It's part of protocol, nothing personal]

I rubbed my temples, "don't take it the wrong way."

You just killed me... of course I won't take it the wrong way, even if I didn't die there would still be trauma.

Also... why is there a giant spider on the ceiling?

Several pairs of red eyes were watching me, a spider as big as half the ceiling was hanging above us spinning its webs.

Maybe it was my imagination but that spider smiled at me.

I looked down and looked back up at the golden-haired woman.

[I can read your mind, you know?], her friendly smile was objectively beautiful, but for some reason I was disgusted with this woman.

Her face was the combination of perfection and the most horrible thing you could imagine, causing me to have strange feelings.

"..."

"I think you have the wrong person," I spoke with a stoic expression trying to convince myself of my own words.

[I went to great lengths to bring you here, how could I be wrong? I at least want you to listen to my proposal], the woman's delicate face became serious as she crossed her arms under her generous bosom.

"Definitely not," I quickly denied, what a joke! Proposal? You brought me here by force!

Her simple methods of invitation were dangerous, who knows what business she had in mind, this woman was very crazy.

Besides, she called herself a Goddess, what could she want from me?

I'm a mere mortal, okay?

I'm not exaggeratedly handsome, I'm not too talented either, in short, I'm average, I have or had a lot of money but that couldn't interest this woman, I have nothing to offer.

"..."

[Pff... you'll still have to listen to me if you don't want to die... really die... you already died, but you get the message, don't you?]

I nodded slowly, this woman is definitely not a Goddess, she looked like a demon or a devil every time she spoke.

[Don't scare him too much...], a faint murmur coming from above, from the spider, brought down the atmosphere.

The Lucky Goddess clicked her tongue, but stopped her harsh expression.

[Work with us, and you will get what you crave, you will have a harem], the woman was smiling mockingly.

"..."

For some reason, I was deeply embarrassed, this woman saw my memories?

I felt a disdainful look coming from afar, I could almost hear the words "pathetic".

That was a wish that formed during my adolescence, a foolish wish; it was a delusion that I wanted to forget but ended up dragging on for many years, reality hit hard and today I knew it wasn't possible.

My only true friend, Fred, tried to date two girls at the same time but ended up losing more than one head in the attempt.

Rest in peace Fred...

Romance is definitely not for me, I had no time left for it and maybe the last regret of my life was that, dying as a virgin.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I never had that dream," I immediately denied her words, trying to save my pride.

[Hehe, okay, let's say you are not interested in that, the task is not too dangerous, and you will gain a lot from this. With my support your survival is 99%, with her help your survival is 200%. You don't have to worry about anything], the woman spoke while pointing at the giant spider.

Was it a she?

Wait... that didn't matter... I thought of all the options in my hands... there were no options.

"..."

*Sigh*

"I can't leave here if I don't agree, can I?", I'm too tired to talk about something that's already been decided.

[No... you don't actually have any options], the spider said softly.

The Lucky Goddess gave a thumbs up and smiled.

[You understand quickly, I want you to reincarnate and search for something I lost. You will go "far, far away" to a distant universe; this universe will open its doors in a few hours after many millennia... it is my home but I cannot enter, let's say it is still a year before I can enter again, but you can do it], the woman looked very embarrassed, it was her own home but she did not have the right keys to enter.

Immediately the spider spoke.

[You will also have to kill someone], the spider spoke few words and didn't explain much more, who was the target to kill?

"..."

[I also want you to steal all the treasures you see.... Hmm, it's very tedious to explain, take this [Pandora's Box] here you have everything you need, there is a manual with all the instructions necessary for your survival], the woman seemed a little reluctant to let go of the silver cube floating in her hands, but after a few words from the spider, the woman let go of the box and gave it to me.

[Ah, if you meet a woman with a punchable face... I advise you to run as fast as possible]

[Forget it, you won't be able to run anyway...]

"..."

[I don't think I forgot anything]

[Hmm... lastly, let me give you my blessing]

[Me too], the spider said while weaving something.

???

Neither of them let me speak a word.

The woman reacted faster and lifted me gently by the shoulders.

I felt the strong grip of her hands that did not match her appearance.

[Nothing personal, I swear], she looked embarrassed and was apologizing for some reason, but the corner of her lips twitched sadistically.

*Pah*

My right cheek felt numb.

"..."

*Pah*

My other cheek suffered the same abuse and was possibly tinged with fiery crimson.

"..."

[All done, you have my blessings], the woman patted her hands, she looked proud.

[I wish you a prosperous future, I'll see you in a year~], she looked friendly.

[You wonder, why did I slap you? It's part of protocol, you can call me Lady Luck, you know the phrase, "Luck comes when you least expect it", well, something like that. Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm not kidding, whatever~]

For some reason tears were coming out of her eyes, this woman was bipolar?

So many changes in such a short time made her look so fake.

I felt my cheeks tingle.

Before I could respond, the box in my hands became intangible and entered my body, my vision blurred a little.

[It's ready], the spider's voice sounded from my shoulder and there I found it, it had shrunk and its huge body had shrunk to the size of a pinky, it looked so fragile.

Suddenly I felt a prick in my shoulder.

The spider had bitten me.

[I'm sorry, but this will be worth it...], the spider seemed to be apologizing in earnest.

What exactly was worth it?

[Do you like screens?], the spider asked.

I didn't understand its words because I had fainted, even though it was a small bite it was so painful.

The bullet was still in my mouth and would remain there until I met this duo again.

The beginning of my new life was so strange and inexplicable.

A spider bite, a box and two slaps marked the beginning of my adventures in a new wonderful Universe.
