Multiverse Gacha

[51] ‘Extreme Menacing’ Strike!

In the late afternoon, August and Tsubaki walked one after the other on the streets of Orario.

Because of August's words, he significantly boosted Tsubaki's favorability towards him. Now, she treated August like a promising junior who suited her taste.

"By the way, why did you go to that place just now? It's quite far from your Loki Familia."

"Uh~"

"What's wrong? Can't talk about it?"

"I got lost"

After saying that, August turned his head, not wanting to see Tsubaki's subsequent expressions.

As expected, Tsubaki's expression turned extremely strange, just as August anticipated.

"Pfft~ What did you say? Got lost? Hahaha! August, I must remember this for a lifetime."

August's face turned dark, while Tsubaki laughed heartily beside him, almost doubling over.

However, it was indeed rare for adventurers in Orario to get lost, and August happened to be one of those rare cases.

"Hey, that's enough."

"Okay~ okay~ I get it. I'll stop laughing."

Although she said that, the smile on her face clearly didn't subside.

After a few more minutes, under August's darkening expression, Tsubaki finally stopped her laughter.

Especially when she saw August's darkened face, she felt embarrassed. She had indeed gone a bit too far.

"Sorry, I couldn't help it. It was just too funny."

"I understand, but this spatial thing, even though it's formed into a skill, it's quite unstable. When you take out the materials later, you might lose thirty or forty percent."

"You're clearly retaliating."

"It might be forty or fifty percent."

"I was wrong."

Tsubaki admitted her mistake.

She had to admit it because she had spent a considerable amount of money and effort to obtain rare metals and materials. If she suffered any loss, it would be heartbreaking.

At this moment, August also smiled. He had indeed caught a handle on Tsubaki.

All the items from her warehouse were in his hands, giving him a certain advantage.

Thus, the two bantered and teased each other, returning to the central street of Orario.

Orario was vast, but the most prosperous area was the central district, as it was built around Babel, the dungeon entrance.

August knew the way here because the roads were spacious and heavily trafficked. He had also been here before.

"Hey, where are we going? Aren't we heading to Babel?"

Seeing that Tsubaki didn't head toward Babel, August instinctively asked.

"Why go to Babel?"

"Isn't Hephaestus Familia living in Babel?"

"Are you kidding? Only gods can reside in Babel. Our Familia merely has some shops and a forging room in the middle layers."

"And now~"

"Of course, we're going to my forge."

"Your forge?"

"What's wrong? Can't I have a forge? In terms of forging skills in our Familia, I'm only below Lady Hephaestus."

"Sure, of course."

August quickly agreed. In this regard, if you made her unhappy, you were really in big trouble.

"Heh!"

She snorted, and Tsubaki walked towards the front. August followed behind.

After passing through the bustling central street, they arrived at narrower streets and alleys. August looked at an extremely unfamiliar area, feeling both helpless and aggrieved.

After finally finding the way, he was led astray again.

Finally, under Tsubaki's guidance, the two arrived in front of a mansion. Though not large, it could be considered a small-scale mansion. Such a mansion had an absolutely steep price.

Following Tsubaki inside, they reached the backyard.

Wow, August exclaimed mentally as he entered. The backyard had been directly converted into a large forge.

A large forging furnace! A cooling pool! An anvil! Various forging tools, as well as fuel and some unused metals, were stacked not far away.

As for the walls, they were adorned with various weapons.

Each one gleamed with a cold light, and each one was a deadly weapon, worth hundreds of thousands, if not millions.

"All right, just put the things here."

Tsubaki pointed to a huge empty space on the side. It was clear that they had directly opened up a neighboring room and expanded this area.

August nodded, and in a twinkling of gold, various ores and materials fell into this area.

"No matter how many times I see it, I'm always amazed. August, next time, go to the dungeon with me. With you around, we can definitely bring back a lot of ore and raw materials."

"Sure, but how will the payment be calculated?"

"We're so familiar with each other. Why talk about payment?"

"Who's familiar with you? We just met today, and you pulled me in as a laborer as soon as we met."

"You brat!"

While speaking, Tsubaki grabbed August.

In August's confused state, she picked him up, embraced him in her arms, and her two peaks directly buried his face, rubbing against him actively.

"I'm is so fond of you, and you're talking about money with me, really hurting my feelings."

"Ugh~ ugh~"

August struggled continuously, but unfortunately, in the hands of this one-eyed giant, he was still too weak.

This kind of clear touch was something August had never experienced before.

Although he had fused with the Original Sin of Lust and had connected with several beautiful women in Orario in just a few days, fundamentally, he was still a pure novice.

Now, encountering such a 'monster,' August was utterly defenseless.

However, although this feeling was indeed enjoyable in various senses, a person's breath was limited.

Before long, August began to struggle fiercely because he was running out of air.

"Oh dear, you're so cute, August."

Tsubaki also didn't know what had come over her. Although she usually liked to tease some boys, such intimate contact was a first for her, and she didn't mind it with this man.

The two had just met for the first time, so why was she so concerned about this little guy? She couldn't understand.

However, with her easy-going personality, she didn't want to think too much.

"Hmm? Why no movement?"

After a while, Tsubaki realized that August unexpectedly stopped moving. Sensing something was wrong, she felt uneasy.

When she let go of August, she found that his face had turned bluish, and he had fainted.

Seeing this, Tsubaki suddenly felt something was wrong. It seemed that she had played too much.
