Multiverse Gacha

[47] Targeted!

August didn't stay long at Aki's place, considering she had things to attend to.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"Please come in."

Upon hearing Finn's voice, August pushed open the door.

The office wasn't large, with a desk, a chair, a bookshelf on the side, and a simple arrangement of a chair and table in front.

Seeing August, Finn was slightly surprised.

"Why are you here? Is there something you need?"

Putting down the pen in hand, Finn smiled lightly.

"It's a bit embarrassing, but I've come to find you several times in just a few days."

"We're from the same Familia, we're family."

"Alright, this time, I came to you for this."

Saying that, August took out a large piece of leather from the vault, entirely black-gray!

"This is..."

Finn looked at August in shock.

He naturally recognized this item, a drop from 17th floor boss, Goliath, with an extremely low drop rate. With the boss and low drop rate combined, this item was practically priceless in Orario.

While others might be surprised, it was different when it was August presenting it. That fact alone shocked Finn, even more so considering August had just reached level 2.

"Don't misunderstand. With my current strength, defeating the floor boss is impossible."

"Then, where did you get this?"

"Today, Ais and I went to the dungeon together."

"Ah~"

Hearing August's explanation, Finn immediately understood. If it were Ais, it wouldn't be surprising. Goliath, 17th floor boss, had been defeated by Ais countless times.

"Wait a moment. If Ais killed the floor boss, how did this item end up with you?"

"Well, I didn't give it to her."

"Huh?"

"If I gave it to Ais, she would have exchanged it for valis right away. That would have been a huge loss."

"If it were Ais, she might actually do that."

Ais had no concept of money herself, having spent many years always moving with her Familia. This lack of knowledge included selling monster drops.

This ignorance had led to many losses for the Familia in terms of valis.

"So, you..."

"After all, I've just arrived in Orario, and I'm still quite clueless."

"Alright, I'll accept this. But according to the current market price, this Goliath's hard leather is worth around 8 million valis. Of course, if there's a buyer in need, we might get a bit more."

"I'll leave it to you then. Once the captain sells it, give the valis directly to Ais, after all, this is her loot."

"Understood."

"I'll head back now."

"You seem to be considering Ais, it looks like things are progressing well."

"More or less."

The two exchanged a smile without needing many words. Especially Finn, he became even more satisfied with August. Not only did he possess extraordinary talent and strength, but he also demonstrated good intelligence.

In the future, he would undoubtedly become the absolute core of the Familia. When he matured, he could take over and bear the burden of the Loki Familia future.

While Finn was still in his prime, he was already in his fifties. His glory had reached its peak, and the Familia's future needed someone like August to support it.

"Perhaps, for the next expedition, I can invite August."

Looking at the Goliath's hard leather in front of him, a slight smile appeared on Finn's lips.

Every expedition into the dungeon required a considerable amount of funds, and in the deeper layers, many monster drops had to be left behind.

If they could bring all these items back, it would undoubtedly be a substantial income. Especially in the last expedition, due to a Monster Feast, many people died, and a considerable amount of supplies were lost, especially potions, which were all shattered.

With August joining, not only could they avoid these risks, but even the logistics team's pressure could be significantly reduced.

However, Finn quickly dismissed this idea. The deep layers of the dungeon were entirely different from the mid-layers. Even a level 4 adventurer wouldn't dare claim they could handle the deeper floors.

Even if they wanted to take August, they'd have to wait until he reached at least level 3. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous, any random monster could put August in a life-threatening situation. The risk was too high.

On the other hand, after leaving Finn's place, August prepared to visit Entertainment District.

He was eager to absorb sin to enhance his strength.

As for whether August knew the way to Entertainment District, that was not even a question. After integrating the Sin of Lust, August was like a sin radar. All sin auras in Orario were within August's perception range.

In Orario, one just needed to find the place with the most concentrated lust power.

Thinking about it, August set out.

Walking on the streets, August felt a bit dreamy. It had been some time since he transmigrated, and this was his first real outing.

"Excuse me, sir, I think this belongs to you."

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind. Turning around, August saw a pretty girl holding a magic stone, looking at him.

At the moment of seeing her, August's gaze was a bit trance-like.

Lust, an endless lust that seemed like the embodiment of desire. If it weren't for August being the master of the Sin of Lust, he would suspect she was the Lust Goddess herself.

However, after the initial shock, August recognized the girl.

Hostess of Fertility employee, Syr Flova. But this was only her appearance; the person standing in front of August was more than just a tavern employee.

She was a goddess! Goddess Freya!

A goddess who relied on her charm and made even countless gods unable to escape, a goddess who could see into souls. At one point, countless danmachi fans believed she was Freya's daughter.

However, after August transmigrated, the following plot revealed the truth – Syr Flova is Freya!
