Multiverse Gacha

August looked at the spirited samurai girl in front of him, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

Yamato took a deep breath, glanced at Takemikazuchi, Ouka, and Chigusa, and she had made her decision.

"Ouka-san did this to protect us. Since that's the case, let me handle it!"

Compared to the so-called tough guy Ouka, Yamato seemed more like a samurai warrior.

In this world, Yamato came from the far eastern island country, essentially representing the japanese people in anime.

"Interesting. Are you saying you want to die in his place?"

"Yes!"

Yamato affirmed without hesitation, showing no signs of wavering despite the fear in her heart.

This stemmed from her beliefs and principles, the so-called 'samurai spirit'.

Unfortunately, among the myriad warriors who believed in the so-called samurai spirit, only very few possessed such awareness and quality.

"Yamato, right!"

"Yes!"

Yamato's gaze met August's, showing no signs of retreat even in the face of August's killing intent.

"Not bad, Yamato. Your actions have moved me. I can spare this guy's life, and I might even let this matter go."

"What?"

"But, you have to join Loki Familia!"

With the dropping of these words, the entire courtyard fell into silence.

And Riveria nodded secretly, this was August's purpose, to bring this girl back.

"What? I won't betray Takemikazuchi-sama!"

Yamato refused without hesitation.

"In that case, I'll take his life!"

As August spoke, the sword, entwined with a bloody aura, fell directly in front of Ouka's neck. If it moved a little forward, it would pierce his throat.

"Wait a moment!"

August's actions forced Yamato to speak up.

In the background, Takemikazuchi had already figured it out, August came to recruit, and it was obvious that August had taken a liking to Yamato.

This stirred a hint of anger in him, as the God of War, although he had a gentle personality, it didn't mean he had no temper.

However, when he saw Riveria and Ais not far away, that anger dissipated.

Riveria, one of the three top executive of Loki Familia, and Ais, the Sword Princess. The weight of these two individuals was self-evident.

If today's matter couldn't be resolved properly, it might really evolve into a War Game.

"Your actions are not befitting a warrior!"

"Miss Yamato, I'm not a warrior. If I had to put it, you can call me Archer!"

It was known that archers often hung a 'B,' and Archer was the best rank.

"Archer? A knight of the bow?"

Riveria looked at August with curiosity. Not mentioning whether August could use a bow and arrow, just the title of a knight was quite...

Yamato was full of conflict, looking at the unresponsive August and the sword pointing at Ouka by August, everything forced her.

"Kill me. Don't trouble Yamato. This is all my responsibility, and I'll take care of it alone!"

Ouka suddenly spoke at this critical moment.

This made August frown. Saying such things at this juncture was not a display of bravery, in August's eyes, he was provoking Yamato.

If he truly wanted to die, he could take a step forward, and he would immediately be dead, resolving everything. Instead, he chose to speak like this.

However, his actions also helped August achieve his goal, so August didn't say anything.

At this moment, Yamato was already in the midst of a dilemma.

Looking up at Ouka on the brink of life and death, she recalled the scene in the dungeon where Ouka was injured while trying to save her. She made a decision.

"I am willing to join Loki Familia!"

Yamato nodded. Despite the despicable means, her goal was achieved.

Upon hearing this, August smiled and sheathed his sword without even looking at Ouka.

"Yamato."

Takemikazuchi looked deflated, his face filled with anguish.

Unlike in the original story where she voluntarily joined Hestia Familia, the current Yamato was coerced into joining. These two scenarios were completely different.

"Yamato, you can't go. Let me die instead!"

Ouka's face was filled with regret and indignation at this moment.

Bang!

This overly dramatic scene made August lose patience, and he kicked Ouka away.

"Scum, who do you think is to blame for all this? Don't make it seem like I'm some great villain. It was you who first tried to frame me."

"You..."

"Also, if you really want to take responsibility for all this, I can give you a chance. If you die right here and now, I'll consider this never happened."

Clang!

As he spoke, August plunged his sword directly in front of Ouka.

Looking at the sword in front of him, Ouka wanted desperately to draw the sword and end his life. However, he couldn't do it because he was afraid—afraid of death.

August, with a sneer on his face, and Takemikazuchi, Yamato, and Chigusa, all looked at Ouka with subtly changing gazes.

As August said, the root cause of all this was ultimately Ouka.

Moreover, if he truly wanted to take responsibility, now was his chance. However, he made no move.

As he looked at his child, Takemikazuchi, for some reason, felt a bit unfamiliar. Was this the same Kashima Ouka who used to be friendly, caring for his comrades?

Riveria observed everything with surprise.

August's actions were equivalent to killing two birds with one stone—he not only took the person away but also disintegrated the unity within the Takemikazuchi Familia.

After this incident, everyone, including Takemikazuchi, would hold a grudge against Ouka. Even if they didn't show it, any slight incident might turn into a hidden bomb.

As August had mentioned, the main culprit behind all this was ultimately Ouka.

And if he truly wanted to take responsibility, now was the chance. However, he made no move.

Yamato's gaze at this moment also seemed a bit dim. Since she had already made a decision, she wouldn't back down. However, Ouka's current actions were indeed disappointing.

"Takemikazuchi-sama, thank you for your previous care."

"Yamato, sigh..."

Takemikazuchi didn't know what to say.

Under August's gaze, Takemikazuchi completed the change of Yamato's falna. Her current falna had been sealed, and all she needed to do was find a new god to help her unlock it, completing the change of falna.
