"I had been enjoying a normal day, so what the hell is this?"

HELLO! YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FOR THE "SYSTEM"

"System? Ah fuck, this sounds like a bad Isekai fanfiction. Uhh... Settings?"

That was when a setting box appeared. Thankfully there was an instruction manual included within. Seems like this is really happening, oh well. But wait, don't people usually die beforehand? Eh, not worth thinking about in all honesty. What are my options here...

You will be sent to a world of your choosing when you wish it to be, make haste.

Yeah I get that, "So... I obviously know what world I wanna go to, Touhou completely overtook my life recently. The thing is, how am I gonna survive? If I get sent to somewhere dangerous I'd instantly die most likely. Hell, being sent to anywhere except a shrine or the Human Village would mean death."

Well, time to get reading, I've never gotten around to reading all the official literature...

please wait warmly... boys? Are preparing

"Well, that was... an experience. Taking off a week from school and all. Luckily, this won't come to bite me in the ass as I'll be gone soon enough anyways." What had I done, you ask? Well, luckily, this 'system' allowed me to have an inventory, saying that I could bring anything I threw in there to Gensokyo with me, which I'm not gonna complain about. First thing I did, water.

You see, this inventory was unlimited. And if was to go survive in Gensokyo, I'll need plenty of survival items. Now, I'd been working part time for over a year at this point, and unlike other teenagers, I was thrifty, mostly. Point is, I had money to burn so I went to Walmart, found the best deal on water I could find, which was 0.8 cents a fluid ounce, and spent 800 on it, enough to last me YEARS.

Hold your horses, I wasn't stupid in this, this was not my first option at all. The first thing I noticed was that if I put things into the floating rectangle only I could see, they went in the inventory, so I tried running my faucet water and putting my inventory under that, but noooo, only solids worked, so water in a solid packaging would have to do. For food I bought as much cheap stuff as I could find, making sure it was all decently healthy (except the pizza I threw in, luckily things don't spoil in there, like they are frozen in time.)

after throwing in (pirated) copies of all the touhou print works and game scripts, I was down a good 4 thousand, half to go.

I packed all my clothes, and bought myself some survival gear and decided that I may as well waste my money on unimportant things while I'm at it, can you blame me? So what if Principal Mathematica and number and set theory books wouldn't help, so what if grabbing college books on nuclear physics and quantum mechanics wouldn't help, I don't care! Plus, I feel as if they will be helpful eventually, though not as helpful as the books on the Japanese language I grabbed (not taking any chances.)

With the rest of my money I bought some goods to hopefully resell in Gensokyo, spices and Gold!

"So... My dear son Jake, where did all your money go? I don't check up on your bank account often, but first you take an entire week off of school and work, and I check to see you burnt through your life savings in that time?" Oh shit, oh fuck, mom is Pissed!

Discreetly opening up the settings, I pressed go, and I watched as the world shifted around me, eyes everywhere, staring...

"Holy Mackerel, that HURT! Did it really have to send me through a portal like that, nearly broke a bone on the landing! Now let's see, I'm in... where exactly?" Wasn't the human villiage or the Hakurei Shrine, that's for sure. I like the purple... oh dammit, this is Muenzuka, isn't it?

QUEST, SURVIVE YOUR PIRT ENCOUNTER WITH YOKAI! REWARD, 100 MAGICAL POINTS (MP)

Okay, deep breaths... this won't be that bad, right? Doesn't matter how maimed and almost dead I get, I can heal with the system... or at least I think?

"Yo, is that a human?" I heard a voice as a cute looking girl approached, but I knew better. Reaching into my inventory, I grabbed my spear. "Back off!" I told the Yokai, but it seems to be moot, I'm probably gonna die...

"Don't worry, this will only hurt a lot!" The girl rushes me, only to get stabbed through the shoulder, spears are sharp! "AHHHH, THAT HURT, HUMAN! I WILL HAVE YOUR HEAD SERVED WITH RICE!" And I didn't doubt that. Watching on, I twisted the spear to make the wound larger and yanked it out of her body, only for her hand to grasp the thing like a clamp! It took barely a second for her to break the spear, that was expensive you know! I reach into my inventory and grab something, only for the girl to grab my arm.

"What are you holding there? Well, you won't be holding ANYTHING for long!" She shoves my entire fist into her mouth, wow she can unhinge her jaw, that's not easy! Only too late to I realize what she's doing, as she bites down, severing the hand completely.

"DUCK YOU! You are gonna die for that!" She smirks. "What can a lowly human, an outsider no less, do to... HNG-" She falls over, spazzing as foam leaks from her mouth.

"I didn't want to kill you, but I had no choice. Cyanide is crazy easy do buy, eBay sells anything." I decide to turn away and leave her to be, I'll pray for her soul later. Despite what she did, I don't wish hell onto her, though Eiki is in charge of that.

QUEST COMPLETED, 100 MP GRANTED! LEVEL UP X 5! NEW SKILL, TRICKSTER!

Okay? That's nice to know. Now, I need to wrap my hand. Getting some cloth out from my inventory, I quickly make a makeshift bandage to stop the bleeding. One of my skill, GAMER'S BODY, ensures that as long as my health regenerates fully, I can heal any injury.

Walking along, I see no more Yokai, thankfully. It was getting late though, the watch said I'd been awake for 20 hours! Not to mention how much exercise I'm getting! I've gone through 4 water bottles at this point and I don't think I've even made it to the Road of Reconsideration! If only I could fly...

"Dammit, imma pass out at this rate." Isn't this the point where the protagonist meets Yukari? Did the fanfiction lie to me? As I was about to give up, I saw it. A white door? In the middle of nowhere? "Must be an invisible house or something. Hopefully I'll be allowed in, wonder if it Is the door the Rinnosuke's shop? Don't remember it being invisible." Me, in my perfectly fine mental state, knocked.

"Hello? May I come in?" And the door opened, leading me to fall through into... a bed? "What the hell? I'll pay you back, you trickster..r...ZZZ...ZZZ..."

Omake: "Jake? Where are you? GODDAMNIT JAKE!" Jake's mother took the disappearance horribly, nobody believed her about how he disappeared, not ever her own husband... She began looking into more Fantastical answers

Waking up what my watch told me was 13 hours later, I started to piece together what happened to me. I was tired, and I entered a white door.

"A white door in the middle of nowhere..." oh, Okina? What would the Secret God want from me? Meh, I'm sure I'll be fine, glad to see my hand is healed now! Anyways, I was too busy walking last night to check, but let's see what my 100 MP can be spent on.

"Really? It's a shop? Beats a Gacha so I'll take it." This is very nice actually, I was mentally preparing myself for gambling. Looking at the cheapest options we have... Flight... 0 MP...

I think I may just end myself here. Well, bygones will be bygones and all that. Buying the option, I clicked the Damnaku option. "Oh, so damnaku is a one time thing, I'd better pick carefully. Whatever I choose will be how my damnaku manifests, and can seriously impact my power level. Looking at cheap options, I could go with "Magic balls" generic much? Icicles was the most expensive one I could afford, but I don't wanna end up like that damn ice fairy! This is important, this dictates my entire future!

looking at the bottom of the list, I saw the most expensive options. Tied for first were antimatter damnaku, Holy Damnaku, and Demonic Damnaku. "So, I assume that this is what the top tiers use. Safe to say that the strongest character in the series Hecatia would use something with strength down here. I'd like to use magic now, but I'm completely willing to save up to afford one of these. Now let's see... 100000 MP and 1 Incident point? And Incident points... seems like those can only be gained by solving an incident. I'm sure I can do this...

Deciding to stand up, I walked out the door, but not before reading the note left for me. I'll be going to the dining room it seems...

skills: Gamers Body, any wounds heal fully once HP reaches Max, sleeping for more than 6 hours results in a full heal.

Gamers Mind: able to keep calm in high stress situations, full immunity to mind altering abilities.

Trickster: surprise attacks are 30% more effective, 1 friendship with tricksters (Three fairies, Tewi...)

A/N: let me know any changes to my writing style to make this more readable, maybe it is the "..." I use every paragraph? Idk, let me know!

Oh Jake, you wanna save up I see, I don't know if that's gonna be possible, until you solve an incident that is. But how can an unpowered human solve an incident?

Inspiration from "Average Joe in Bullet Hell". Read it it's amazing!
