Multiverse Gacha

[57] Meet Bete Again!

Bete Loga, the son of the chief of the werewolf tribe on the northern plains, belonged to a tribe that had not received falna from gods. Educated by his people, he firmly believed in the survival of the fittest.

However, on Bete's twelfth birthday, the entire tribe was attacked by monsters. Except for Bete, no one survived, including his parents, sister, and lover!

This tragedy fueled Bete's desire for strength because only with power could he protect everything dear to him.

In pursuit of strength that would prevent stronger beings from taking everything away, Bete went alone to Orario and later joined Vidar Familia, becoming an adventurer.

Gradually making a name for himself in Vidar Familia, he earned the initial title of "Gray Wolf." His relationship with a human woman in the Familia became increasingly intimate.

At the age of sixteen, Bete reached Level 3 and decided to go back to avenge his tribe.

After a bloody battle, Bete returned victorious, only to be greeted by the corpse of 'her,' who had died in the Dungeon adventure.

This was the second time he had seen the body of his loved one.

This experience led to a significant transformation in Bete. He criticized the entire Familia, including his god, and began to despise 'small fry' who considered themselves weak.

From then on, Bete believed that strong people would always rise to the top. He conducted a 'selection' by insulting those he deemed unsuitable for adventuring, as seeing 'small fry' reminded him of his past self, and he didn't want to see them die before him again.

Having lost many important people in the past due to their weakness, he admired Ais, who was persistent in becoming stronger and moving forward. He believed that this girl wouldn't let him lose again.

In the end, he was just an ordinary person yearning for companionship due to repeated losses. Fearful of having, he adorned himself with a sharp exterior.

"Hoo~"

With the last monster cleared, the newly spawned monsters on the 28th floor were all eliminated.

This was why they needed a combat member, especially a Level 5 combat member. The 28th floor was not a safe floor, and monsters would spawn, needing to be cleared. Otherwise, it would be incredibly difficult to mine adamantite.

On the lower floors, especially around the 28th floor, approaching the 30th floor, the refresh rate and intensity of monsters were formidable. Even Level 4 adventurers would find it challenging to persevere in high-intensity battles.

Because monsters spawned randomly and unpredictably in terms of time and location.

Tap~ Tap~ Tap~

At this moment, footsteps echoed, and Bete turned around to see a figure swiftly approaching.

"Ais?"

Bete was momentarily stunned, just about to greet her when he saw the person behind her.

In an instant, Bete's expression darkened.

The guy who stole Ais appeared. Although he was prepared to meet him again, seeing him in person still irritated him.

"Bete."

Nevertheless, Bete ignored August, who came over directly.

August didn't feel any resentment toward this tsundere werewolf. Having read the original work, August knew that beneath this wolf's fierce appearance lay a fragile heart.

"Don't talk to me. Take your stuff and get lost."

When August approached, Bete's fur bristled.

"Well, don't be so agitated. I brought you some condolences."

Saying that, August opened his treasury and took out the items.

Grilled lamb leg! A large cup of rum! Various side dishes!

August deliberately ordered dishes from a rich hostess for Bete.

As for the reason, stealing someone else's goddess, without finding a reason to approach, how could he show off?

"Take it. I don't care."

"This is a premium dish from the hostess of fertility. I specifically ordered it from Boss Mia. Are you sure you don't want to try it?"

"I won't eat it."

The werewolf said decisively, but his eyes repeatedly drifted towards the grilled lamb leg.

Bete was still a werewolf, although no longer a beast, the attraction of a grilled lamb leg to him was not small.

"Whether you eat it or not is up to you, I've delivered the goods."

August didn't continue to tease this tsundere wolf.

Of course, mainly because August's strength couldn't surpass him right now. What if this guy got angry and beat him up? So, he chose to give up for now.

When he became more powerful, he would definitely tease him properly.

This tsundere werewolf was truly the best material.

Arriving at the adamantite mine, they had already dug up quite a bit, all piled up outside.

August opened the gate connecting to the treasury and directly collected all the adamantite ores.

Bete, who had been silently observing August, saw this scene and couldn't help but contract his pupils. He didn't know if this was another use of August's skill or a new skill.

But he had to admit that August not only became stronger but also gained more abilities.

Looking at the area cleared by Bete, August suddenly smiled mysteriously.

This smile made Bete have a bad premonition.

"Ais."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"Later, protect the camp with Bete. Don't let any monsters get in."

"Okay."

Ais nodded and drew her sword.

"Hey, what do you want to do?"

Bete didn't know what August wanted to do, but since August said that, there must be a reason.

August grinned and didn't answer him. Instead, he ran straight into the distance.

This made Bete very unhappy.

In the Dungeon, as they went deeper, the space became more extensive. On the 28th floor, the Dungeon's area was already incredibly vast, almost two-thirds the size of Orario.

After running for a while, August looked around and thought it was good. They were already a considerable distance from the adamantite mine.

Then, he took out an item from the treasury.

Water Candle, the peculiar item he had to ask Ais for help on the 19th floor last time.

Lighting it up, August stood on a massive rock, quietly waiting.

Click~

Splash~

Soon, in just a few minutes, monsters crawled out of the surrounding rock walls and beneath the ground.

On the 28th floor, most of the monsters were various animals, including dog-headed, sheep-headed, bull-headed, tigers, lions, and so on.

August couldn't be specific about their names, but without exception, these monsters were all Level 2.

"Hey! What the hell is that bastard up to?"

Bete, looking at the monsters around, couldn't help but curse loudly. He had just cleared the monsters, and even if the monsters refreshed, it shouldn't be this fast.

Ais, on the other hand, seemed contemplative. She remembered what happened last time August took out that strange candle.

This made her somewhat worried. This was the 28th floor, and the monsters here were much stronger than on the 19th floor.
