I will insert three chapters on the 16th and 17th. I'm sorry to those whose bookmarks have shifted!
"Let's activate the 'Level Gacha.'"
Come to think of it, this is the first time I'm calling it out inside the house.
Usually, I have to be careful of my surroundings in the dungeon, but now I can take my time and observe it.
That said, there's nothing particularly strange or new about it since the first time I used it.
It's just a very ordinary capsule toy machine.
"Well, the content and the prizes that come out are far from ordinary."
I pressed the usual "10 Gacha" button.
*Jalala, Jalalala!*
What came out were 2 purple, 4 red, and 4 blue.

"Wow, the growth in my stats is amazing, and a new skill too. R used to be 3 or 5, but now I'm getting 10 or 12. That's incredible... And, so, 'Martial Arts' is..."
*Always active skill. The user gains a deeper understanding of body control, improving close combat skills, core strength, and balance. Market price: 30 million to 40 million.*
Lately, I've become so used to seeing skills with outrageous prices that I don't even get surprised anymore.
Still, it's a pretty convenient skill. I'll try it out right away.
"Alright... Wow. The Y-balance is a piece of cake now."
Before, I would have wobbled or used 'Body Enhancement' to force the balance. Now, I can easily maintain the pose without any effort. During 'Swift,' I often had to control my balance while hunting monsters. But even in difficult positions, I could avoid falling by fully utilizing 'Body Enhancement.'
However, it often left me with aches and pains all over my body. Plus, I would get tired easily after hunting. Thanks to 'Durability' and 'Body Enhancement,' my stamina and recovery speed were far beyond those of a normal person, but it was still tough.
With this skill, I should be able to do things more easily than before.
"Still, a lot has happened today..."
Since getting the 'Level Gacha,' every day has been a rollercoaster.
Having stats over 100.
Being able to hunt rare monsters.
Becoming incredibly wealthy.
Uncovering the secrets of the dungeon.
Having two beautiful girlfriends.
And they are from good families too.
I wouldn't have believed it a short while ago.
Is it all thanks to 'Luck'?
Even before getting this skill, I considered allocating SP to other stats. But now, I'm glad I maxed out 'Luck' after level 2.
At this point, I'll keep allocating SP to 'Luck' until the end. If rare monsters spawn from rare monsters, I should be prepared to handle it.
Thinking about this, their faces suddenly came to mind.
I can do all this because they prepare everything for me.
We are officially recognized as lovers, or rather, fiancés. It feels different to just go to bed as usual.
"Alright, I'll give them a call."
I took out my smartphone and used the 'Dungeon Communication Network' app to call both of my dedicated partners simultaneously.
After a few rings, the call connected.
"Good evening."
*G-Good evening, Shota. What's up?*
*It's rare for Shota to call. What's the matter?*
This is the first time I'm using this feature, but it seems to work fine.
From the tone of their voices, Maki seemed a bit nervous, while Aki sounded sleepy.
"Yeah, I just wanted to talk a bit. Is the meeting over?"
*Yes. It was eventful, but it's over.*
*Fwah... It got a bit too heated, so part of it was postponed to tomorrow. Should I tell you about it?*
"No, let's save that for tomorrow. I just wanted to hear your voices. You know, we were dismissed without doing anything like lovers. Being with two beautiful and cute girls like you feels like a dream. I just wanted to confirm it."
*Shota... I really want to see you now.*
*I'm feeling really clingy too...*
"Hehe, let's do that tomorrow. For now, let's both hold back."
Then, I chatted with them about random things.
Since it was before bedtime, we couldn't talk for too long. I avoided talking about the dungeon and instead reminisced about our school days.
Well, I don't really have many memories, so I mostly listened.
From what they said, the schools they attended were famous places where upper-class ladies gathered. They provided general high school education while also training adventurers and receptionists, making them advanced facilities.
In those schools, they had various seniors like Yoko and some troublesome juniors. I nodded along as they happily talked about their experiences, and we ended the call for the night.
They wanted to talk more, but I convinced them to rest, considering their fatigue from yesterday.
I feel the same way, but I'll hold back. Maybe tomorrow, I'll hug them tightly as soon as I see them. But, I can't officially marry both of them until I reach C-rank. So, for now, we'll have to sneak around and be affectionate.
Feeling a bit disappointed, I jumped into bed.
I'm sure I'll have a good dream tonight.
