Multiverse Gacha

[121] Meeting!

Back in the familia, August and Ais headed straight to their room.

After the last gacha draw, August proved his non-whale status. Now, August had no shortage of food and drink, everything was covered.

As soon as they returned, August intended to take a bath and relax. However, Ais hugged him from behind.

"What's wrong?"

"Just wanted to hug you."

"It's not even nighttime yet. Isn't it a bit early?"

Suddenly, Ais's face turned completely red.

Even though August had thoroughly 'eat' her before, she still felt shy, especially when August brought it up.

"You pervert, always thinking about dirty things."

"Ais, you've changed. You used to blush and lower your head."

"You..."

Ais didn't know how to respond.

Had she changed?

Yes, she had changed.

She had changed a lot. Now, she was completely different from the Ais in the past.

Three months ago, all she thought about was getting stronger. Today, she came back thinking about how deep they could go in the dungeon tomorrow and how many monsters to kill.

But now, her mind was filled with the image of this man, and there was no room for anything else, except getting stronger.

"Alright, today, I'll take good care of my Princess Ais."

Saying that, August lifted Ais like a prince carrying a princess in a fairy tale.

"What are you going to do?"

Ais was a bit flustered because August often did things she considered inappropriate.

"I said I'd take care of my Princess Ais today."

"I don't need you to take care of me. Let me go."

"No, after running around with me so much today, dusty and wind-blown, you need a good bath."

"I can do it myself, don't..."

"Yes, you can."

He lifted Ais and headed to the bathroom.

Although it was just a stand-up shower since it was the familia manor, not many people had this kind of treatment. Most familia members used the public bath, so having a shower like this was quite rare.

August was assigned here initially because of the ability of the King's Treasure. Finn arranged it specially to get closer to August.

So, August carried Ais to the bathroom. Soon, clothes were thrown out, and then...

...

At the same time, in the meeting room of the Loki Familia, the three top executive of the Loki Familia, along with Loki herself, were present.

"Finn, I heard that you understand that you're going to the dungeon with August?"

Gareth asked curiously. It was understandable that he was curious because Finn was usually busy with many things. The next expedition was already in preparation.

"Yes, both Riveria and I will go. Of course, August and Ais will join, along with Tiona and Tione. Oh, and also Lefiya."

"Huh, quite a few people. What do you plan to do? Subjugate the floor boss?"

"No, the expedition is coming up, and August is going again. I want to see how strong he is now. After all, he is more important than the results of the expedition."

"I see. This is an expedition, not a joke."

Gareth nodded. He had walked step by step to where he was now. There were times when he almost couldn't come back because of the dungeon. The dungeon was dangerous, and people could die at any time.

"By the way, that kid August, when we updated his status last time, all his stats reached 999."

"Huh? Loki, are you serious?"

"Yes."

"That means August only needs one more great feat to level up?"

"Not exactly. He said he wanted to wait until he broke the limit of S-rank before leveling up. After all, he's been like this since level 1."

This conversation made the entire meeting room fall into silence.

Whether it was Finn, Riveria, or Gareth, all of them were speechless.

They had never reached the level of 999 for all attributes, breaking the limit of SSS-1500, and at most, two attributes had reached over 950. The others were at most two or three hundred.

August, with his all-around warrior abilities, was simply a monster that had never appeared in ancient or modern times.

Moreover, this monster's growth rate was extremely fast. From level 1 to the current level 3 with all attributes at 999, it only took a little over two months. This made them feel like they had lived their half lives in vain.

"Oh, by the way, let me share something with you. Be mentally prepared."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"That kid already has eight skills and magic combined. So, if he shows something amazing during the expedition, don't be surprised. It's normal."

Loki said so, but after saying it, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"What did you say? Eight skills and magic? Are you kidding, Loki?"

Finn was shocked and shouted. Not only him, but Riveria and Gareth were equally shocked.

Especially Riveria, because August was the one she had 'picked up,' and she never expected to pick up such a super big monster.

"It's true. That kid is not an ordinary human."

"Not a human?"

In that moment, all three leaders were stunned. Then their faces gradually softened.

"What race is he? Elf? Beastman? Other race?"

"None of those."

"None of those? That's also true. He's not much different from a little monster. Could it be that he's a descendant of the spirit?"

Spirit, was a representative magical race and was also known as Nymphs, Elementals, Salamanders, Gnomes, Tonitrus, Lux, Undines, and Shades.

It was universally recognized as the race closest to the gods. Therefore, they were also called 'the most beloved children of the gods' or 'the incarnations of the gods.'

In the ancient times before the descent of the gods, they were guided by the will of the gods to eliminate monsters and assist humans, existing as heroes.

In the magic sword technique passed down in Orario, it was the technique given to humans by the spirits in ancient times.

In the original work, Welf Crozzo, inherited the power of the spirits after saving them and gained the ability to forge magic swords from the bloodline after receiving falna.

So, associating August's monstrous strength and growth rate, Finn subconsciously thought of spirits.

"None of those. The kid's race, none of us have ever heard of."

"Huh? Loki, you haven't heard of it either? What race is it?"

The gods were 'omniscient' beings. If even the gods didn't know the race, it became interesting.

"Demon Clan!"

Loki slowly spoke out that name.
