Multiverse Gacha

[14] Adventuring with the Sword Princess!

"Hey~ hey~, isn't that the Sword Princess!"

"That's right, beauty comparable to a goddess, with a cold expression. She's definitely Loki familia princess, Ais!"

"It's him, the rising star of Loki familia!"

"How do you know him?"

"He was at the guild with the Nine Hell yesterday, said to be a new adventurer!"

"Nine Hell and Sword Princess? So envious!"

...

If yesterday August attracted attention because of Riveria, today he was already famous. After all, in Orario now, the popularity of Sword Princess Ais is definitely above Riveria, especially since they are a male and a female duo.

Ais ignored everything. In her eyes, anything other than becoming stronger was not worth paying attention to.

On the other hand, August, having experienced yesterday, felt much better this time.

Especially seeing many men looking at him with 'admiration, jealousy, and hatred,' August felt a sense of satisfaction. When did he ever envy handsome and rich guys? Now it's finally his turn.

Arriving at Babel, crossing the spiraling corridor leading to the dungeon, August finally entered the dungeon again.

Compared to yesterday, after receiving an update in favor, all his abilities increased by over two hundred, and his magical power increased by four hundred and ninety, almost reaching five hundred.

Moreover, he added twenty new weapons to his inventory. Compared to yesterday, he had definitely climbed up a new ladder.

Click~

The dungeon walls began to crack open, and goblins crawled out.

"Today's adventure begins!"

Golden ripples opened behind August, revealing the Gate of Babylon. Weapons shot out like arrows through the golden door.

The first time Ais saw this, she was astonished. Looking at this splendid attack method, she was amazed.

"Is this your skill?" Ais looked at August and asked slowly.

"Yes, Gate of Babylon. It's my skill. I possess a treasury capable of holding all the treasures in the world. As its owner, I can freely take out or store items. At the same time, I can use it for attacks like this!"

As he spoke, weapons within the golden ripples shot out like arrows.

Splatter~ Splatter~

In the blink of an eye, all the goblins in front were instantly killed.

Being an adventurer and fighting in the dungeon for so many years, Ais had never seen such an attack style before.

The power of spatial abilities was unexpectedly strong.

Different from yesterday, today August didn't plan to stay on the first few levels for too long.

With Ais, a level 5 powerhouse, escorting him, if he didn't act boldly, he would be letting down the Sword Princess and himself in the dungeon.

Collecting the magic stones dropped by goblins, August continued to the next floor.

After all, the monsters on lower levels are more powerful, and the value of the dropped magic stones is higher.

August is currently in need of money, considering he possesses a treasure like the Gate of Babylon. If he doesn't fill it with some high-level weapons, August feels it would be an insult to this treasure.

It's said that the King of Heroes, Gilgamesh, collected treasures from around the world to form such a noble treasure.

In this way, at the relentless pace set by August, the progress of conquering the underground dungeon continued bit by bit.

First floor!

Second floor!

Third floor!

...

Seventh floor, in the dark cave, a large lizard stood staring at the approaching humans.

Lizardmen, considered mid-tier among level 1 monsters, were fast and strong, and their scales provided decent defense.

"Why aren't you attacking, monsters!"

August stood there, watching the lizardmen without attacking, slightly puzzled.

However, when he saw these lizardmen looking towards him not far away, their bodies trembling slightly, and taking a small step back, August understood. It wasn't that they weren't attacking, but they were wary of Ais.

A level 5 Ais, even without entering battle mode, still made these level 1 monsters wary.

*ROOOAR*

Suddenly, a lizardman roared and swiftly attacked August.

"Come on!"

Buzz~

The Gate of Babylon unfolded, and then weapons shot out instantly.

Splatter~ Splatter~

In the blink of an eye, this lizardman was pierced like a sieve.

This incident stimulated the others. All the lizardmen, like mad dogs, rushed towards August.

As for Ais, even if she just stood there, these lizardmen didn't dare to approach.

August took advantage of this. With 25 weapons, he had no pressure facing this small group of monsters.

Under the barrage of various weapons, all the lizardmen fell within a few dozen breaths.

"Okay! Clear the battlefield!"

Then he walked forward, collecting the magic stones one by one.

Suddenly, on the ground, a grayish-brown scale appeared in front of him.

"Ais, what is this?"

August looked at Ais, in the dungeon, he was still a newbie.

"Lizardman's scale. The drop rate is very low, worth about two or three thousand valis."

"Wow, that's not bad at all, equivalent to twenty or thirty goblins."

August collected it. Two or three thousand Valis could already buy an ordinary sword or weapon.

But when he thought about the weapons of Ais and others in the anime, especially Ais's Desperate Sword, the cost of maintenance alone was tens of millions of Valis.

In an instant, the disparity was clear. He was still struggling for a few hundred or a thousand Valis.

Thinking about this, a fiery flame rose in August's heart.

Get stronger! He must get stronger!

Ais observed everything quietly on the side. Especially seeing August's constantly changing expressions, she was puzzled.

Without wasting much time, August continued to move forward.

And Ais, like a guardian, quietly followed behind August.

She was observing August, wanting to know how he became stronger.

Although she didn't know if this would help her become stronger, besides this, she didn't know what else to do.

...

Meanwhile, in Twilight Manor...

"I heard Ais went to the dungeon with August today?"

Riveria looked at Finn with a slightly surprised expression.

"Yes! Went early in the morning, and Gareth said that the kid had a terrible hangover from last night. Yet, because Ais came to his door early, he went to the dungeon with a severe headache."

"He still went to the dungeon?"

"Who told Ais to come early?"

"Uh, so August agreed?"

"With our princess personally inviting him, how many men do you think can refuse?"

"That's true. And that kid..."

Riveria subconsciously wanted to say that August liked beautiful women, but she felt it wasn't right, so she didn't continue.

"If Ais and August can really get together, it's not a bad thing!"

"What do you mean, Finn? Are you trying to match them?"

"Of course not. I won't interfere in other people's feelings, but if they really get together, the bond of love is what will firmly tie August to our familia!"

"This..."

Riveria wasn't at ease because August was different from others.

Many people, including Ais, grew up in Loki's familia. This place was like their home. This bond was natural and required no further thought.

But August was different. He joined the familia too recently.

The familia felt a deep sense of gratitude towards him, especially Riveria, who recognized his potential. However, others didn't share this sentiment.

The reason Finn and Gareth treated August so well, even opening the doors of convenience wide, was because of this.
