A powerful force directly sent August flying.
He crashed into the rock wall, and the intense impact made August cough up a mouthful of blood.
Four level 2 minotaurs, for August, who was at level 1, were nothing short of a natural disaster.
If there were only one, August might have some chance of winning, but with four, he had absolutely no chance. The absolute gap in strength was impossible to overcome.
"Are you okay, August?"
Watching the battered August, Aki's face was full of concern.
He was the darling of the familia now. If something really happened to him under her watch, she would absolutely blame herself.
*ROOOOAR*
At this moment, the four minotaurs were slowly approaching.
Seeing this, Aki drew her short sword. Despite being a woman, she was a solid level 4. These four minotaurs were no problem for her.
"Don't interfere!"
Just as she was about to attack these sheep-headed monsters, August's voice rang out.
Even though he was covered in injuries, with bones broken in many places, August still hadn't fallen.
August, who inherited the Eight Thousand Sword Styles, would absolutely not allow himself to stop in the midst of a battle.
The end of the fight wasn't about declaring a winner, it was about producing a loser.
And now, August absolutely refused to admit that he was the loser.
Standing up, even though he was covered in wounds, August's fighting spirit remained high.
Hum~
Gate of Babylon, which had not been activated until now, was finally unveiled.
At the same moment, at the instant the swords and blades initiated their attacks, it moved as well.
August's goal was clear. Since one against four was not a match, he would go one against one.
Blocked by a large number of swords, the four minotaurs were gradually separated.
After all, monsters were monsters. Compared to humans, they were more brutal and barbaric, with only the emotion of slaughter in their minds.
*ROOOOAR*
Amidst the roars of the minotaurs, August charged towards them.
Bang~
The large blade clashed with the Elucidator, and the powerful force made August unable to withstand it. As always, the absolute gap in strength was insurmountable.
However, August took a step back after that blow, gathered his strength, and leaped directly into the air. The Elucidator came down in an instant.
Splurt~
A massive wound was torn open on the minotaur, and blood splattered on the ground.
Bang~
In pain, the minotaur retaliated against August. The large blade came down towards August's head.
Blink!
August's figure disappeared instantly and reappeared behind the minotaur.
Splurt~
The sword light flashed, and a minotaur's head flew directly into the air.
This one-on-one battle ended with August as the ultimate victor.
After being killed, the minotaur turned into a black smoke and a magic stone.
However, the battle was far from over.
Even though, under the suppression of the Gate of Babylon, the other minotaurs were forced to scatter, killing them still required some effort.
Dragging his injured body, August, like a wild beast, once again plunged into the fight.
There were no rules, all that remained was a ruthless slaughter. Either you died or I perished.
Aki watched everything, directly stunned in place.
When had she ever seen such a fighting style.
All along, she went to the Dungeon with her companions, helping each other and complementing each other.
And now, August's wild slaughter, like a beast, directly overturned her understanding.
Splurt~
Finally, the black sword pierced the last remaining minotaur, bringing this slaughter to an end.
With the death of the last minotaur, a piece of horn was left on the ground.
"This is a minotaur's horn, also considered a rare drop."
Aki looked at the minotaur's horn, unsure how to express her feelings.
To congratulate him? August was already covered in injuries.
To say he was fine? Looking at August's bloody and slightly mad face, she didn't dare to get close.
Cough~
The end of the battle made August's tense nerves relax suddenly.
The injuries he had suppressed suddenly erupted, and August couldn't hold back, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
"Hey, are you okay?"
Seeing this, Aki quickly ran over and supported August.
"It's nothing, but today might be the end of the line."
"Nonsense, do you think you can continue in your current state? If it weren't for me today, you would have died in dungeon!"
"Well, I really appreciate Miss Aki's lifesaving grace."
"Don't give me that. After going through dungeon with you once, I've learned what it's like to have a stroke of bad luck! Monster feasts! Monster migration! Lower-level monsters coming to the middle level! They all gathered together in one day!"
"Well, in a sense, it's also a stroke of luck."
"Hehe."
Aki rolled her eyes and quickly took out a healing potion from her small bag for August to drink.
Unlike August, Aki is quite wealthy. Having been in Orario for many years, she is a mid-level cadre within her familia, with not much expenditure and a decent amount of assets.
Top-notch healing potions cost a hundred thousand valis per bottle.
Compared to August's ordinary potion worth three thousand valis, the difference is obvious.
However, although healing potions can quickly recover injuries, August has several fractures and wounds all over his body that need treatment.
If all these issues could be solved with one bottle of potion, Orario's potion industry would have monopolized the market long ago.
With Aki's help, it took quite some time for August to return to Orario and familia manor.
August certainly attracted a lot of attention on the way back, being supported by a beautiful catwoman, a truly enviable situation.
And August took advantage of this to enjoy a meal of catwoman breast.
Bang!
In August's room, Aki threw him onto the bed.
"I am an injured person, are you trying to murder me?"
Being hit like this, August felt even more pain.
"It's better if you die. I kindly brought you back and treated your injuries, and this is how you repay me?"
As Aki said this, her face turned a shade of red.
On the way back, August intentionally or unintentionally rubbed against her, even attacking her breast.
If it weren't for the inappropriate location, she would have exploded earlier.
"Uh~"
August suddenly found himself at a loss for words. Being caught red-handed while enjoying some perks was a bit embarrassing.
"Let me tell you, the healing potion I gave you in dungeon is worth two hundred thousand valis at market price, and it's in high demand. I'm not trying to trick you, you must pay me the full two hundred thousand valis!"
"What? Two hundred thousand valis?"
August suddenly felt like he had been struck by lightning. Two hundred thousand valis would take him several days to earn.
As a newcomer to Orario, August naturally didn't know that while the potion he received was top-notch, its market price was only a hundred thousand valis, and Aki was tricking him with the inflated price.
