Fairy Tail: You said you were just acting, are you serious

Back at his home, Ron packed warm clothes and enough dry food, then slung his heavy travel bag over his shoulder and opened his front door.

Before leaving town, Ron went to the tent to rehearse with Leigh and Weiss to prevent them from making any mistakes.

After personally correcting some problems, he went straight to the Magnolia post station to prepare a carriage.

The journey to the north is long and the location of the mission is too remote to be taken by the magic train.

Ron's physical strength and magical power also need to be preserved, so renting a carriage is the best option.

After making his request and paying a deposit at the post station counter, Ron boarded the covered carriage and headed north on the road.

Tap tap~ Tap tap~

Ron sat in the wagon, listening to the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves outside the window. He leaned back on the cushions and summoned the Multiverse Item Library.

He was planning his next move in his mind. In order to draw better Naruto World character cards as soon as possible, he would have to use some of the character cards he had stored in the Multiverse Item Library.

He had previously obtained an S-rank card by luck when equipping the Buggy character card, so he had been saving some lucky character cards specifically for this moment.

[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Joey Wheeler]

Ron couldn't help but laugh when he saw the character card with the exaggerated facial expression.

For the next three days, all the card draws will depend on you, you gambler.

Over the next two days, Ron's carriage traveled on and off.

Every time the carriage passed through a small town, it had to stop for a short rest. Ron took this opportunity to improve his current role-playing level. He settled his role card around the first day and gained the olfactory talent.

The effect of equipping Jonouchi's character card appeared on the second day.

Ron rubbed his hands together, looked at the countdown to the card draw in the wagon, and opened the Multiverse Item Vault on the other side.

He has to time the character card's duration for 3 days so that he can borrow luck for the next three draws.

As soon as the card-drawing cooldown was over, he immediately drew cards the instant the [Jounouchi] character card merged into his body!

Then came the gacha CG scene, illuminated by a dazzling red light.

After the red light faded, Ron looked at the A-rank character card floating in front of him with a red border and a surprised smile appeared on his face.

Card Name: Minato Namikaze

[World: Naruto]

[Character Ability Level: A]

[Ability 1: Flash Throw (D)]

[Effect: Grants a wide range of throwing techniques, allowing for subtle changes in trajectory and attacks from blind spots, while also increasing throwing accuracy]

[Ability 2: Magic Bullet Magic - Rasengan (B)]

[Effect: Gathers high-density magic in the palm of the hand, then spins and compresses it at ultra-high speed to form a destructive magic sphere.]

[Ability 3: Swift Reflexes (B)]

[Effect: Grants top-tier dynamic vision and nerve reaction speed, enhances basic bodily reflexes, and enables the ability to clearly seize opportunities in chaotic battle situations]

[Ability 4: Spatial Magic - Flying Thunder God (A)]

[Effect: Allows the user to imprint a unique Flying Thunder God magic mark on a target location, weapon, or human body, enabling them to instantly teleport to the location of the mark, regardless of distance or spatial obstacles.]

[Ability 5: Sealing Magic - Corpse Demon Sealing (S)]

[Effect: A one-time active sealing skill that can forcibly seal magical life forms into a specially made container or abdomen, regardless of the difference in power level. Due to the reduced side effects of death and the lower cost of use, this ability can only be activated once.]

Sure enough, you still have to rely on the luck of gambling addicts!

After scanning the five abilities, Ron finally decided to choose ability four, which is the Flying Thunder God Technique, the most famous of the Fourth Hokage!

The others were ruled out.

First, there's his first ability. Although it's only a D-rank, when combined with his clay bombs, it definitely increases his bomb-throwing accuracy. Moreover, the trajectory change is crucial; it's one of the Fourth Hokage's specialties.

However, compared to Flying Thor, this D-class ability is still far inferior.

Then there's his second ability, a localized version of the Rasengan, which is also a very powerful magic and makes up for his lack of destructive power in close combat. However, Ron doesn't plan to improve his close combat abilities in the near future.

His escape ability is already sufficient. If he adds the Flying Thunder God Technique, then the enemy can only let him explode from a distance and cannot get close to him.

Furthermore, there are actually several characters in the Naruto world who can use the Rasengan. He can gradually add more characters who can use the Rasengan after making the Naruto World gacha pool a permanent gacha pool.

Ron also felt that this third ability was very strong, perfectly matching his current pursuit of improving his five senses and reaction speed, but he still had to give way to the Flying Thunder God.

As for Ability Five, although it has no side effects and is an S-rank sealing trump card, it is still too few in which it is applicable.

The Flying Thunder God Technique, which has the fourth ability, has been localized by the system into a noble space magic, so I would definitely choose it myself.

Ron didn't equip the character card right away. Instead, he waited for his carriage to arrive at the next town before equipping the [Minato Namikaze] card.

He can finally earn those 1000 popularity points while playing the role.

Just as he was silently thinking about how to quickly improve the performance level of this A-level character card, the temperature outside the carriage began to drop noticeably.

A gust of cold wind slipped in through the crack in the car window, and Ron shivered slightly, looking up at the window.

In the hazy sky, scattered white snowflakes gradually began to fall.

As the carriage traveled further north, the changes in climate gradually became apparent.

The snowfall wasn't heavy; the white snowflakes simply landed lightly on the withered grass and soil beside the road, covering them with a little bit of frost.

"Ron, buddy!"

The driver's voice could be heard from outside the carriage.

Ron pulled back the windproof curtain and listened carefully to what the coachman had to say.

"Look at the weather. Although the snow here isn't heavy, we've still entered the northern territory."

I see a small village not far ahead. Shall we go there and rest for a while?

The driver pointed into the distance, and Ron followed his finger and indeed saw the outline of a village built against the mountain, with wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys of the small houses.

Ron naturally wouldn't refuse and quickly agreed with the coachman.

"Then we don't need to rush. Let's go straight to the town ahead."

Ron lowered the curtains and then gave instructions to the coachman:

"Let's stay in this town for a few more days, and you can let the horses rest properly."

"no problem!"

The coachman readily agreed, raised his whip, and urged the two horses to continue forward.

Tap tap~ Tap tap~

The carriage left two clear tracks on the thin layer of snow as it headed towards the small town to the north.
