The next morning, August slowly opened his eyes.
In his embrace was a sleeping Ais, who, after defeating Barol yesterday and completing two quests, had returned to Orlare with Ais and Fenn. They arrived late at night and slept through until morning.

[Gacha Draws: Advanced Gacha Draw*6]
Opening the system panel and examining his personal attributes, August felt a surge of pride. In just two and a half months, he had gone from an ordinary person with nothing to this poin, a remarkable achievement.
August's strength had reached level 6, but this was his personal strength, unrelated to falna status. The falna status was only at level 3, but this dungeon expedition could certainly be upgraded, making him an level 4 adventurer.
All of August's third-stage mission were completed.
He had saved these six advanced draw because his luck had been terrible lately. Gacha after gacha yielded disappointing results, with extremely low drop rates. August decided to save them up for a collective draw since these were advanced draw.
Hmm~
As August fantasized about drawing good drop and reaching the pinnacle of life, Ais, who was in his arms, also woke up.
"Hey, good morning."
"Good morning."
Ais, still drowsy, greeted him, subconsciously sitting up in August's embrace.
Although they were already open and familiar with each other, the two were still in their honeymoon phase, so they were affectionate at all times.
Even just getting out of bed in the morning, when both were awake, they lingered under the covers for quite a while.
"Do we have anything to do today?"
August asked Ais.
"Nothing."
"Then let's go find Loki. It's time for me to level up."
"Okay."
Ais nodded, her tone somewhat excited.
After everything was tidied up, they had already eaten the breakfast August prepared, milk tea with lamb skewers. It was the breakfast he got from gacha draws, a total of five hundred lamb skewers and a thousand bowls of milk tea.
Fully satisfied, they left the room. The time was already mid-morning, and the two finally left the room.
Using the Observation Haki, August easily found Loki's location.
Upon reaching the living room, it wasn't just Loki present. Finn, Riveria, and Gareth were also there, seemingly discussing something.
"Oh, oh, the young couple finally woke up?"
As soon as Loki saw August and Ais, she immediately teased.
Loki's attitude had changed significantly from before, when she had lost her little flower. Now, he had successfully transitioned from the role of an father to a father-in-law.
August, being a big man, naturally didn't mind, but Ais couldn't bear it. Blushing, she lowered her head.
This scene made Finn, Riveria, and Gareth all wear the smiles of older relatives. They had watched Ais grow up, and in the blink of an eye, she had grown into a woman.
"Alright, Loki, I'm here for a reason."
"I know. To level up, right? Finn told me. You, little monster, actually single-handedly defeated Balor. Even Ottar couldn't do that."
Loki lamented, and upon hearing this news, Riveria and Gareth, who had just learned about it, were equally shocked.
"Well, it's a small matter. Help me level up first."
August smiled, covering it up, took off his shirt, and sat in front of Loki.
Loki, seeing August use such a crude method to change the topic, pursed her lips, but she didn't say anything further.
She took out the needle that had been prepared long ago, pricked her own finger, and a drop of divine blood fell on August's back. August's status began to transform. The various attributes that were stuck at 999 broke through the limits rapidly, reaching 1500.
"What a little monster. All attributes have reached 1500 again."
Finn and the others gathered around, even though they couldn't read the divine script, the dazzling 1500 blinded their eyes.
August smiled without saying anything.
Now that all the attributes had reached their limits, it was natural to level up. As for the greatness needed for leveling up, it was not a problem.
August's accumulated greatness was more than enough to level up directly to level 6. The 17th floor bosses, Goliath, 37th floor boss, Udeaus, and 47th floor boss, Balor, had all been single-handedly subdued by August. These three accomplishments were enough for August to level up several times.
"What ability do you plan to develop this time?"
"Is there any difference?"
"No, it's the same as before: Hunter, Abnormal Resistance, and Healing Power."
"Hunter."
"I guessed as much."
While speaking, Loki helped August make his ability selection.
And for this time, August still didn't show up any lucky developing abilities, making her feel disappointed once again.
If August knew Loki's thoughts, he would definitely complain. His luck had not been good lately, and good luck and himself were almost unrelated.

[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host, for completing the quest 'New Era Legend: Promote to level 4. Completion reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *3']
[Ding! All third-stage mission completed. Reward: Super Gacha Draw once!]
Taking the status imprint properties handed to him by Loki, August's lips curled slightly, and he drew his cards.
However, when August saw 'Lust,' he suddenly froze.
How could this skill appear at this time? If it were to appear, it should have appeared earlier. It didn't appear when the status was updated, and August thought the status couldn't accommodate this ability.
Now it seems that Loki did it.
"August, this skill 'Lust' is a skill I hid for you before. Do you know about this skill?"
"I know."
"You don't know. The thing is, even the falna system couldn't-..."
Loki subconsciously wanted to explain, but halfway through, he suddenly stiffened.
