Multiverse Gacha

"A truly powerful attack method, but it does come with a bit of a cost!"

Gareth looked at the five longswords embedded in the distant wall and sighed slightly.

Of course, this was just a fleeting sentiment. For adventurers beyond level 3, making money was absolutely not a problem.

Snap~

With a crisp snap of his fingers, the five longswords turned into golden particles and disappeared.

These swords were all marked by August with the imprint of the Gate of Babylon and could be retrieved at any time.

"To be honest, I have some concerns too. After all, this kind of attack method does burn through money!"

While weapons could be recovered, each use would cause some wear and tear to the weapons.

After all, these weapons were incomparable to shiny golden treasures. Each use caused varying degrees of wear, and eventually, they would become unusable.

If August were to use the Gate of Babylon like Gilgamesh, it would require a large number of weapons.

And each use would be burning through money.

Riveria, not far away, was shocked to see August remotely wielding weapons. This was no longer just storage, it was retrieval.

"Alright, Riveria, since this kid was brought back by you, the rest is up to you. Take him to the guild for registration!"

"I understand!"

Guild, a neutral organization established by God Ouranos.

All familia members and their levels need to be registered in the guild, and magic stones can only be exchanged for Valis in the guild.

Generally, new members joining a familia would be taken to the guild for registration by an elder.

However, having someone like Riveria, a high-ranking member of the familia, take someone there was extremely rare, and there were very few records of such instances in all of Orario.

Usually, those who had this qualification were children highly valued by the god familia.

Because this act essentially served to establish authority for the newcomer, sending a signal to others, telling them that he was significant, so don't mess with him.

"Goddess Loki, when can I go to the dungeon?"

"Hmm? Do you really want to go to the dungeon?"

"Of course, having gained power, I'm eager to give it a try!"

"That's simple. After completing the registration at the guild, have Riveria take you to the dungeon for an experience. After all, sooner or later, you'll have to go!"

After saying this, Loki looked at Riveria again, "Making it clear that since you brought him here, everything is now in your hands!"

"I understand, I will arrange it properly!"

Riveria understood that she was now August's guide in the early stages.

After all, August was brought back by her, and the significance was substantial. Throughout the entire familia, she was the most suitable for the role.

Both Finn and Gareth had plenty of daily tasks.

Especially Finn, who had to handle the various affairs of the familia as the leader.

"Then I'll trouble you, Riveria!"

"We're all family, there's no trouble at all!"

Riveria was very gentle. After all, she had long been accustomed to such things.

Many companions in the entire familia were taken care of by her when they were young, including the most talented swordswoman, Ais. When she was young, she was also raised by Riveria.

This was also why Loki liked to call her 'Mom'—because in the familia, she was truly like everyone's mother.

"That's it for now. I'll take you to the guild first, and then to the dungeon. When Ais and the others come back tonight, I'll introduce you to everyone!"

"Okay, that's the plan!"

Loki nodded. August's future was undoubtedly the strategic core of the familia.

In the future, it would be necessary to establish good relations with other cores of the familia, and the sooner the contact, the better.

And so, August followed Riveria and walked out. Finn and the others went back to their own tasks.

...

Riveria led the way, while August opened his system.

Having just joined the familia, completed the first mission, and gained the opportunity for a regular draw, August naturally couldn't resist the excitement.

He opened the draw panel, and a slot machine-like interface appeared.

There were three options: Regular Draw, Advanced Draw, and Super Draw.

Currently, August only had one chance for a Regular Draw.

Without hesitation, he started the draw, and the images on the slot machine began to roll.

After a moment of acceleration, it slowed down and finally came to a stop.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, host, you've obtained the equipment: Tears of the Goddess!]

[Name: Tears of the Goddess]

[Bearer: None]

[Skill 1: Magic Recovery (Increases magic recovery speed by 25%)]

[Skill 2: Mana Accumulation · 0/750 (Each use of magic can accumulate one layer of mana)]

Looking at the ice-blue Tears of the Goddess in his hands, August was extremely delighted.

Equipment that increases magic and magic recovery was undoubtedly an early-game artifact for August.

Although specific attributes might differ from those in the game, it didn't matter. What mattered was what he had in his hands now.

Without further ado, he directly chose to bind it.

The next moment, Tears of the Goddess slowly extended into a necklace and directly hung around August's neck.

After binding, only August could use Tears of the Goddess. For others, even if they took it, it would be meaningless. For them, Tears of the Goddess was just a beautiful gem.

[Name: Augustus Divus Pracentum]

[Level: Level 1]

[Bloodline: Ordinary Human]

[Talent: None]

[Skill: None]

[Equipment: Tears of the Goddess (0/750)]

[Noble Phantasm: Gate of Babylon: King's Treasure]

[Items: None]

[Gacha Draws: None]

With the acquisition of the blessing, August advanced from a level 0 scrub to the level 1.

Next, he opened the mission panel and found that new missions had been refreshed.

[Test the Waters I: Hunt 10 level 1 monsters, 0/10, Completion Reward: Regular Draw Once!]

[Test the Waters II: Hunt 100 level 1 monsters, 0/100, Completion Reward: Regular Draw Three Times!]

[Test the Waters III: Hunt 1000 level 1 monsters, 0/1000, Completion Reward: Regular Draw Five Times!]

[First Steps: Reach the 18th floor's safe floor in the dungeon, complete the initial exploration, Completion Reward: Advanced Draw Once!]

[Show Your Edge: Kill the floor boss Goliath on the 17th floor, Completion Reward: Advanced Draw Once!]

[Make a Name: Achieve level 2, Completion Reward: Advanced Draw Once!]

A total of six tasks, the first three involving monster hunting with increasing difficulty—10 times, 100 times, and 1000 times.

As for the latter three tasks, one was an exploration task, another a boss task, and the third an upgrade task.

To be honest, these tasks gave August a strong sense of playing a game.
