Multiverse Gacha

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

Walking through the passage leading to the next floor, August and Aki were one behind the other.

"August, where are you from?"

"Me? I'm from faraway land."

"Faraway land?"

"That's right."

"So you're not from around here?"

"Yeah, my home is very far from Orario."

August muttered, not even from this world, and whether he could return in this lifetime was an unknown.

Transmigration, indeed, was something countless people dreamed of, especially with a system as a cheat code.

However, after transmigration, it meant truly leaving one's home.

In this world, the current August would be an outsider because he was not born here, nor did he grow up in this land, but he had no idea about the future.

Aki also noticed August's change and instantly understood that she had made the atmosphere heavy.

However, he also wondered what kind of place and hard life could produce a talent like August, did make her curious.

If only she knew....

*ROOOOAR*

Before they could exit the passage, the roars of monsters echoed.

August and Aki immediately entered a state of alert. This was the Dungeon, you never knew when danger might strike.

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

Next, a man and two women appeared at the entrance of the passage.

Leading them was a tall young man, and the two women behind him were his companions.

"Ouka, what should we do?"

Chigusa looked at the monsters chasing them, full of worry and fear.

"It's okay, I'll protect you, Chigusa!"

"And I'll also protect you, Lady Chigusa!"

On the side, Yamato Mikoto also said the same.

Kashima Ouka, Hitachi Chigusa, Yamato Mikoto.

The three of them were members of the Takemikazuchi Familia, and Ouka, at level 2, was the familia's captain.

"Ouka, look, there are people ahead!"

Chigusa saw August and Aki ahead.

At Chigusa's words, Ouka and Mikoto also looked over.

"Charge straight at them!"

Ouka suddenly spoke.

"Ouka, are you trying to..."

"Yes!"

"This behavior is not samurai!"

"Other things don't matter compared to our companions!"

"But~"

"Mikoto!"

Ouka directly rebuked Mikoto.

This time, they overestimated their strength and rashly entered the lower floors. They almost couldn't come back. Now, their stamina was running out. To survive, Ouka spared no effort.

Mikoto wanted to refuse, but seeing Chigusa beside her, she was really conflicted.

If she were alone, she would unhesitatingly refuse. But the problem was, she wasn't alone.

With Chigusa following, Mikoto's gaze slowly became determined.

"Ouka, I'll hold off those monsters. You take Chigusa and leave quickly!"

While speaking, Ouka stopped his steps, pulled out the katana from his waist, and seemed prepared to face death.

"Mikoto, go quickly!"

Saying that, Ouka pulled up Mikoto, then pulled up Chigusa, and used the last of his strength to run towards the exit.

Indeed, by doing this, he no longer had the qualifications to call himself a samurai.

But compared to these things, he cared more about his companions.

So, let all the curses and shame be borne by himself alone.

"Something's not right. Those Minotaur from the lower floors. Why did they run up to the middle floors?"

"What other reason could there be? They were definitely led up by someone!"

"You mean-"

Aki looked at Ouka's group, who were quickly running towards them.

Before she could ask, Ouka directly rushed past her.

The speed was so fast that Aki didn't react.

Glancing at Ouka and the others who were quickly moving away, then looking at the monsters rushing towards them from below, Aki's expression suddenly became strange.

"Did they just leave this monsters to us?"

"Yeah!"

August nodded seriously. He recognized these guys just now.

In the original work, they also transferred monsters to the protagonist Bell and others. Without the protagonist luck, Bell and the others would have been doomed.

August remembered this very well. He held grudges very well.

"Hey, I really suspect that I'm having bad luck. First, we encountered a monster party, and now this. Why are we experiencing all these things today."

Aki was truly questioning life. What was going on.

And just as they were talking, the Minotaurs had already arrived.

Four Minotaurs in total, each wielding a large cleaver-like weapon.

"Be careful, these are all level 2 monsters!"

"Perfect for me!"

August grinned, level 1 monsters couldn't make him feel any pressure or threat anymore. Now, level 2 monsters were just right.

Then August took the Elucidator from his treasury trove and rushed straight at them.

Clang~

The Elucidator collided with the Minotaur's cleaver, and the powerful force pushed August back several steps.

*ROOOOAR*

With a roar, the four minotaurs simultaneously attacked August.

"Perfect!"

Without activating the Gate of Babylon, August directly faced the attack with his sword.

Ping~

Bang~

Smack~

Continuous combat! Continuous fighting! Continuous fighting for their lives!

August was enjoying the melody woven by the intertwining of life and battle at this moment.

Boom~

After blocking an attack from one minotaur, another one launched an attack. Under the terrifying force, August was directly sent flying.

"Cough cough~"

August coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the taste of blood filled his mouth.

The blow just now made August's internal organs ache.

He indeed grew quickly, but the absolute gap in strength was there. Level 2 monsters, for the current August, were like a towering mountain.
