Multiverse Gacha

[27] Conversations at the Dinner Table!



[27] Conversations at the Dinner Table!

Today was a day that August found incredibly fulfilling.

He spent the entire morning hunting monsters, finally completing the mission by noon and earning five gacha draws. He drew a swordsmanship inheritance, a magic sword-grade weapon, and a ninjutsu card in the subsequent draws.

In the afternoon, back at the Familia with Finn's company, August updated his falna, further deepening the bond.

He even successfully persuaded a cat girl to join his team.

Later in the afternoon, he wholesaled forty new weapons and equipment at Babel, further enhancing his combat strength.

As August lay on his bed, he mentally replayed all the events of the day.

After the night fell, instead of having dinner, August fell asleep.

Meanwhile, in the Familia's dining hall, the members were having their meals.

"Ais, I heard that August and Aki went out together this afternoon!"

Tiona, sitting next to Ais, spoke with a plate in hand.

"Yeah."

Ais nodded, but didn't react further.

"Ais, why aren't you reacting? August went out with Aki, isn't that a big deal?"

"What's wrong? August and Aki went out, is there a problem?"

"What's wrong? This is a crisis! Aki is a wealthy cat, and she might steal August's heart carelessly!"

"Steal?"

Ais tilted her head, unable to understand Tiona's point.

Not that it surprised her, she naturally didn't care about such things. From childhood to adulthood, besides becoming stronger and fighting, she paid no attention to anything else.

Not to mention romantic relationships.

In all seriousness, even if she did develop feelings for someone, she probably wouldn't realize it herself.

"Why are you so indifferent? You..."

Thud.

Mid-sentence, a fist struck down, knocking her down directly.

"Stop instilling these things in Ais!"

Tione, her sister, walked over, utterly speechless about her little sister.

"It hurts~"

"Who asked you to blabber nonsense here? If you corrupt Ais, many people won't spare you!"

"Who corrupted Ais? Love and relationships are normal!"

"Normal, but you are deliberately guiding and even misleading Ais!"

"You yourself are infatuated with the captain!"

Thud.

Without continuing the argument, Tione, as an older sister, directly delivered a loving punch to her sister.

Tiona was quite despondent about this. Her sister always bullied her, and she couldn't do anything about it. It was really frustrating.

Although Ais, who was watching all this in a daze, didn't understand what was happening in their minds.

"You, tell me, what's going on between August and Aki now?"

Tiona, not remembering the previous fight, started gossiping again after getting up.

"Don't you have anything positive to do all day? August and Ais went out a few times, and you started gossiping about them. Now they went out with Aki once, and you're starting again?"

"Don't you want to know? What's going on between Aki and August?"

"I don't want to. That's their private matter. Stop prying into others' business and spreading rumors!"

"Tsk, so boring!"

Tiona pouted.

However, Ais began to feel curious. How were August and Aki really?

She didn't have Tiona's random thoughts. In her eyes, Aki was likely similar to her, wanting to become stronger through August.

But coincidentally, at this moment, Aki walked in.

"Aki, over here!"

Tiona, with sharp eyes, saw Aki entering the room and immediately called out.

Aki naturally walked over, coincidentally sitting opposite Ais.

"Tiona, Tione, Ais, good evening!"

"Good evening!"

"Good evening!"

"Yeah!"

Although they belonged to the same Familia, they were different tiers of members.

Ais and the others were the core of the Familia, members of the first team, while Aki was a member of the second team.

Although they knew each other, they were not very familiar.

"Aki, what did you and August do today?"

As soon as Aki sat down, Tiona couldn't help but ask her question.

Tione, who wanted to stop her, couldn't catch up.

It was extremely impolite to inquire about someone's schedule and purpose.

"Oh, about that, August wanted to buy weapons, so I took him to Babel."

"Buy weapons? Didn't the captain approve twenty weapons for him?"

"I don't know about that, but this afternoon, he spent 200,000 Valis to buy forty weapons!"

"200,000 Valis? This guy has quite a lot of money!"

Hearing the number 200,000, Tiona and Tione were shocked.

For them, it might not be a big deal, but for August, it was an astronomical figure.

Especially in just a few days, he earned 200,000 Valis.

"Twenty plus forty, this guy now has sixty weapons. What does he need so many weapons for?"

Tione was also puzzled. Why would a newcomer need so many weapons?

"Maybe because his fighting style causes significant wear on his weapons."

At this point, Ais, who hadn't spoken all along, finally spoke.

"Ais, do you know something?"

"Yeah, August's fighting style is quite extreme, and it causes significant wear on his weapons. Over these past few days, most of his weapons are already damaged."

Ais explained, causing the others to widen their eyes in disbelief.

"What? The weapons are almost worn out? This guy has only been here for a few days. Is he eating the weapons?"

Tiona was about to explode. She used to think she was a weapon destroyer, but now it seemed that August was even more formidable.

This made Aki curious. How did August fight to consume weapons like this?

She began to look forward to tomorrow. As August's team member, she would naturally act with him, and he would be the leader.

So, when they went to the Dungeon tomorrow, she could witness August's mystery.

And right in front of Aki, Ais, at this moment, looked up at Aki.

"By the way, Aki, how do you know August?"

Tione spoke to Aki, and this was where her curiosity lay. These two people shouldn't have any intersection.

"This is arranged by the captain. Now I am August's team member."

"Hmm? Captain's arrangement?"

In an instant, both Tiona and Tione stopped eating, staring wide-eyed at Aki, then turning to Ais.

Did it have to develop like this? First, Ais took the initiative, and now it was Finn arranging for Aki.

Even if August had a spatial skill, his preference was too obvious.
