"So let me get this straight; I dead."

"Yup."

"And while I do get to be reincarnated, I don't get to pick my powers or get to know beforehand which world I'm going to..."

"Yup."

"Ok. so how is it decided then?" I asked, feeling myself growing slightly irritated.

"Simple, through our new patented gatcha system!" the angel replied with the most fake enthusiasm I had ever heard.

In case you're curious my name is Y/N; and recently I died. 

Honestly you all know how this type of story goes by now right? Did a good deed, got hit by a truck, and then got shoved into a cramped office cubicle with an overworked Angel whose trying to get me reincarnated as fast as he can so he can move onto the next dead guy before his shift ends. 

(Who knew Angels had daily quotas to meet?)

From what the Angel had just finished explaining, a lot of people recently had come into the afterlife with this idea that they'd now get to be overpowered harem protagonists And had then thrown massive hissy fits once they learned that they might not immediately get powers like omniscience or absolute creation.

The guys in-charge of this whole reincarnation system weren't against the idea of giving them those power per se, it was just that it had became a real problem once even the Angels couldn't keep up with all the property damage reports they had to file every time those reincarnated guys messed stuff up with their op powers.

"All you have to do is press this big red button." the Angel continued calmly. "The roulette wheel will spin, and whatever it lands on will be the powers you get during your second life. We also offer an optional training course to help you get used to your new powers. I highly recommended you do it; especially in light of all the recent...accidents that have been happening."

"...What accidents?" I asked wearily.

"Well...a little while ago, one client got to reincarnate with the powers of the Legendary Super Saiyan. And as soon as she woke up, she tried powering up, immediately lost control, and accidently blew up the planet she was on. Died in the vacuum of space 7 minutes after starting her new life."

"..."

"Then there was this other guy got the power of Saitama from One Punch Man. As soon as he starting walking, the shockwaves from his steps caused a global earthquake which then triggered all the volcanos on the planet to go off at the exact same time." 

"The client's still alive by-the-way, it's just everything else on the planet that's dead

"The client's still alive by-the-way, it's just everything else on the planet that's dead. So, would you like to do the training?"

"YES PLEASE!"

"Smart choice." and for the first time I saw a ghost of a smile on the tired Angel's face. "Now, just press the button and we can get started."

"Could you do it for me?" I asked the Angel as I leaned back in my chair. "I've never been lucky with this kind-of stuff. Honestly just remembering how much money I spent getting Castoria and Oberon makes me want to die."
