Success

"[Fate Player]..."

Without the Attribute Panel, Sulu could only experience and explore the abilities of [Fate Player] on his own.

"Lucky Shot is merely one solidified skill. In truth, there are many ways to apply it—for instance, expanding the concept of the skill so it doesn't have to be used in battle, but can instead add good fortune to everyday life..."
