Bang~
Accompanied by a flash of sword light, a monster was directly killed, turning into black smoke and disappearing.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host, for completing the mission 'Test the Waters III: Hunt 1000 level 1 monsters, 1000/1000, Completion Reward: Regular Draw Five Times!]
August exhaled a breath, finally, after three days of intense grinding, he had completed this task.
In the past two days, August had killed 100 monsters each day, a total of 200 monsters. He still needed 800 more to complete the task.
During these days, August went out early every day, not delving as deep as before, only staying within the first five levels.
Spending a full three days, he finally completed the task of killing 1000 monsters.
It was a blood, sweat, and tears history, a daily routine of opening the Gate of Babylon and continuously harvesting monsters.
Simultaneously, under Ais's 'guidance' during these days, August had also managed to grasp the basics of melee combat with cold weapons. He could now be considered a qualified adventurer.
"Three days, three days! Finally done! Ghost knows how I got through these three days!"
August sat directly on the ground, relieved by the burden lifted.
Five Regular Draws! Already got french fries, fried chicken, and coke in previous draws. This time, his luck shouldn't be too bad.
As a qualified gacha-drawing enthusiast, even though he was now in the underground dungeon, August didn't hesitate to open the system.
The familiar gacha-drawing roulette appeared. August's face was filled with excitement.
"Ah! O`Goddess of Fortune! O`Gacha's Personification! O`All the World's Good! Grant me good luck! Open!!!"
As the word 'Open' fell, the card-drawing roulette started spinning.
One square after another passed by, and finally, as the speed slowed down, the results came out...
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, host, for obtaining item: Coke *500!]
For the first draw, August suddenly spat blood. coke again? Even though it was multiplied by five, it was still coke.
But fortunately, this was just a trial for the first draw, and August was prepared for this.
But the gacha-drawing continued...
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining weapon: Elucidator!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining item: Ninjutsu Card - Great Fire Annihilation!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining item: Sword Art Inheritance Card!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining item: Original Flavor Potato Chips *100!]
[Elucidator: Drops from monsters, equipment at the level of a magic sword!]
[Ninjutsu Card - Great Fire Annihilation: Crush to release 'Great Fire Annihilation' once, single-use item!]
[Sword Art Inheritance Card: Randomly obtain one sword art inheritance!]
Looking at his gains this time, five draws, aside from coke and potato chips, the others were not bad.
Elucidator, the black sword from the protagonist Kirito in "Sword Art Online." Although August didn't know how it compared to the equipment in this world, it was undoubtedly much stronger than his current equipment.
As for the Ninjutsu Card - Great Fire Annihilation, August initially thought he could learn Great Fire Annihilation. Still, unexpectedly, it was a disposable item. Nevertheless, it was not bad.
The most surprising was the third one, the Sword Art Inheritance Card. Randomly inheriting a sword art was quite interesting.
Looking at his haul this time, five draws gave him a black sword, two cards, and a pile of coke and potato chips.
Picking up Elucidator, August felt that it was a bit difficult, not to mention other things. Just this weight alone was something the current August couldn't handle.
Although equipment in this world had no level restrictions, this Elucidator, weaklings couldn't wield it.
Two cards, one depicted a Ninjutsu with sea of flame from a certain anime, and the other depicted a random Sword Art Inheritance.
"Choose the day rather than hitting the day. Right now, my luck is pretty good!"
Crack~
After saying that, he directly crushed the Sword Art Inheritance Card.
The next second, August's vision turned black.
August's consciousness seemed to ascend, reaching an unknown August.
Suddenly, the figure of a woman appeared in front of August.
This woman seemed unable to see August, and he couldn't do anything. He couldn't speak or act.
Then, this woman held a sword and began her journey.
Battle! Slaughter! Massacre!
One enemy after another was cut down by her.
Swordsman! Knife user! Assassin! Hitman!
Anyone who faced her with a weapon, without exception, all fell under her sword.
She enjoyed the pleasure of combat while also pursuing more powerful prey.
In the end, she reached the pinnacle, becoming the unprecedented great villain in the history of the soul society. She proclaimed to master all styles and sword techniques in the world, using the name 'Eight Thousand Styles'.
Dong~
In a trance, August's consciousness recovered. Everything seemed like a dream, yet so real.
As his consciousness returned, what was once unfamiliar—the so-called sword and blade—was now strangely familiar to August. It felt like his own hands.
[Name: Augustus Divus Pracentum]
[Level: Level 1]
[Bloodline: Ordinary Human]
[Talent: None]
[Skill: Blink, Eight Thousand Styles (Level 1)]
[Equipment: Tears of the Goddess (750/750), Elucidator]
[Noble Phantasm: Gate of Babylon: King's Treasure]
[Items: Ninjutsu Card - Great Fire Annihilation]
[Gacha Draws: None]
Eight Thousand Styles Sword Art, this was the sword art August obtained from the inheritance.
Eight Thousand Styles, the first Kenpachi's sword art in "Bleach," the current Captain of the Fourth Division, Retsu Unohana. In the past, she was the great villain in the Soul Society.
An incredibly terrifying woman. Now, August had obtained her inheritance, but he was only at the first tier of the sword art.
Of course, the inheritance card itself only inherited the essence, not the original owner's strength.
Crack~
At this moment, monsters started spawning.
August smiled. He took out one of the few longswords from the Gate of Babylon.
"Let's try it out! The pleasure of slaughter!"
August, like an unrestrained wild horse, rushed over, wielding the longsword in his hand towards the spawning monster.
Yes, he slashed, not hacked. These two words were like night and day.
If the previous August merely swung his strength to strike, now August was using a sword skillfully in his hands.
As an Archer, if he couldn't qualify for close combat, he would probably suffer the same fate as a certain golden man!
___
Yachiru, in the name of Unohana Yachiru, means eight thousand styles! It is mentioned that after mastering all types of sword arts in the world, she gave herself the name Yachiru, which means eight thousand styles.
