Chapter 208: New Allies

Ding!

'Congratulations! You have obtained an Ally with B-grade potential, [Eu]!'

"…" Looking at the result that had appeared on the center screen in front of his field of vision, Aurus was left at a loss for words, unable to comprehend how he had obtained an Ally with B-grade potential from a gacha that had its rates for S-grade to Omega-grade Allies greatly increased. Not long after, he could not help but look at Theresa on his left shoulder and ask it, "Are you really sure that the rates have increased, Theresa?"

"I can tell you without a doubt, Master, that the rates have definitely increased!" Theresa responded to Aurus's question, radiating an aura that feels like it has been wronged. It then added, "If you want to, Master, you could check on the chances of pulling an Ally of a certain potential!"

"That would be for the best, Theresa," Aurus responded to its words, still pondering as to why he had pulled such an Ally. Was it because of bad luck? Or was it because of bad rates? Either way, he followed up with his words, saying, "I won't be pulling the first three gacha banners, so remove the screens on the left and right and replace it with the rates."

"As you wish, Master," Theresa replied to Aurus's words, gesturing with its hands for a few seconds before snapping its fingers, changing the contents on the leftmost and rightmost screens in front of Aurus's field of vision to reflect the rates of the current gacha banner he was pulling on.

It did not take long for Aurus to read through the content written on the two screens, eventually getting to the conclusion that he was just incredibly unlucky. Letting out a sigh, he muttered, "Over 60% of the chances are leaning towards the Allies with S-grade potential and above, with Omega-grade Allies even having a 3% chance to be pulled. As for the remaining 40 percent, it's split up in a reverse pyramid order for the lowest three grades, 17.5% for A-grade, 12.5% for B-grade, and just 10% for C-grade."

After looking at the rates, he could not help but look at Theresa and say, "I apologize for indirectly taking out my anger on you, Theresa. I guess it was just me being unlucky."

"No worries, Master. I can understand how you feel," Theresa responded to Aurus's words before adding, "Pulling an Ally with a low grade does feel really bad."

"It definitely does," Aurus replied before letting out a short chuckle. He then psyched himself up for the next pull he was going at, radiating an aura of expectation as he told Theresa, "Alright, Theresa! Do another summon!"

"Understood, Master!" Theresa replied to Aurus's words as a glimmering golden egg appeared on the center screen yet again, gradually intensifying in its shaking before cracking open as another line of text appeared. It did not take long for Aurus to read the line of text with great expectation…only to have his expectations be brought down once again.

Ding!

'Congratulations! You have obtained an Ally with A-grade potential, [Phoria]!'

"…Are you really really sure that the rates have increased, Theresa?" Aurus could not help but ask Theresa once more, seeing that he had pulled another Ally below A-grade potential. In response to this, Theresa surprisingly let out a boisterous chuckle, making Aurus radiated an aura of confusion as he asked Theresa, "Why are you chuckling?"

"Congratulations, Master! You've snagged a good one!" Theresa responded to its master's question, to which Aurus responded, "A good one? What do you mean? Isn't the latest Ally I pulled someone with A-grade potential?"

"That is indeed the case, Master," Theresa replied to his words before adding, "But if you already have Eu as an ally, something magical happens."

"Something magical?" Aurus could not help but ponder, only for Theresa to let out a short giggle as it snapped its fingers, a notification sound resounding throughout Aurus's mind not long after. He then went ahead and opened up the notification screen in his mind, hastily reading through it before focusing his sense of vision on Theresa and saying, "You should've told me that was the case! What if I didn't pull Phoria then?"

"To be honest, those are the only two Allies on the banner that are of A-grade potential, Master," Theresa replied to his words with a smile on its face. It then added, "As for B-grade and C-grade potential Allies, there are only one of them in each grade, but both of them can increase their potential up to S-grade. So if you even pulled a C-grade or a B-grade Ally, you would still get an S-grade Ally at the very least, Master!"

"…" Aurus was left at a loss for words after Theresa explained how the banner truly worked. It seemed that even if he was unlucky, he would still get a minimum of S-grade if he used enough resources to nurture them. Nevertheless, after reading the notification in his mind, he could not help but shout inwardly, 'If this was the system used in ISE in my previous life, it would've definitely broken the kompu gacha law!'

Ding!

'Congratulations to the user for having Eu and Phoria as your allies! Due to the resonance between the two of them, the two of them have fused into an Ally with SS-grade potential, [Eu & Phoria]!'

Eventually, he closed the notification in his mind before letting out a sigh as he checked how much Life and Will points he had left. Noticing that he still had quite a decent amount of it left, he then looked at Theresa on his left shoulder before saying, "You should've told me that that was the case in the first place, Theresa. You really had me scared there."

"Hehe." Theresa giggled in response. It then added, "I also need to have some fun of my own as well, Master. Anyways, are you going to pull another one from the gacha?"

"Yeah, until I cap out on how much Allies I can have at once," Aurus replied to Theresa's question, to which Theresa responded, "I'll take that as a yes, Master!"

And so, another glimmering golden egg had appeared on the center screen in front of his field of vision, gradually intensifying in its shaking before cracking open to reveal a line of text as usual. Fortunately, this time, at the very instant Aurus had skimmed through the line of text, he let out a sigh of relief before looking at Theresa and saying, "You must've rigged this summon for sure, Theresa."

"Who knows, Master? It could be due to me, or it was just up to your luck," Theresa responded to Aurus's words before letting out a chuckle.

Ding!

'Congratulations! You have obtained an Ally with SS-grade potential, [Terrence]!'

"One slot left before I cap out on how much Allies I can have," Aurus muttered as he looked at the Ally screen, quite glad to now have three SS-grade Allies and one S-grade Ally. At this point, Aurus did not care whether he obtained an Ally with a low grade. Either way, he would still end up with an S-grade Ally at the very least.

"Final summon, Theresa," Aurus said to Theresa before adding, "I hope the luck of the heavens blesses me!"

"I wish you good luck, Master!" Theresa said in response to its master's words before snapping its fingers, a glimmering golden egg appearing on the center screen as usual…only for it to radiate various colors as it gradually intensified in its shaking. Noticing this, Aurus could not help but be in slight shock.

'Does the rainbow color mean anything? Am I going to get something special?' Aurus could not help but think to himself, only for the thought to be reinforced by Theresa's words, shouting in slight shock, "Master! It's a rainbow egg! You're going to get an X-grade Ally at the very least, Master!"

It was then that Aurus's expectations of the last Ally he was going to summon had shot up to incredibly great heights as the rainbow egg had finally cracked, revealing a line of text that Aurus had read in an instant not long after. After reading through the line of text, Aurus was left at a loss for words as he muttered, "A 3% chance…Omega-grade…?"

Ding!

'Congratulations! You have obtained an Ally with Omega-grade potential, [Marielle Glaciesta]!'

As he continued to read the line of text, he continued to become more shocked, muttering, "A C-grade Inanimate…with two names at the start…"

Eventually, Aurus let out a sigh…of awe. He could not believe that the last Ally he had summoned was an Ally that had the highest grade of potential possible at the current level of his system, Omega-grade. It seemed that the luck of the heavens had indeed blessed his last summon.

After summoning his last Ally, he then went ahead and asked Theresa to close all of the screens in front of his field of vision. It did not take long for Theresa to close all of it since it only had to snap its fingers to do so. Not long after the screens were closed, Aurus then commanded Theresa, "Theresa, summon Fenrir and Charisa."

"As you wish, Master," Theresa replied to Aurus's words before gesturing with its hands once more, instantly revealing two beings that radiated an aura around half to three-fourths of the intensity of Aurus's aura, in front of his field of vision.

Whoosh!

At the very instant he looked at the two, he could not help but notice that the appearances of the two have somewhat changed. The first being, which used to look like a regal wolf, now looked like a more regal wolf, emanating an aura of magnanimity as Wind energy particles interacted with its body. As for the second being, a curvy piece of wood covered in black and white flames, the curves of the stick had become more pronounced while the intensity of the flames has risen by a notch or two. Aurus could not help but feel the flames on this piece of wood could burn him.

"Fenrir Zephyron greets you, Master," the first being respectfully bowed before saying these words.

"Charisa Flamerei greets you, Master," the second being said after the first being was done, respectfully bowing as well.

"No need to bow to me, Fenrir. Charisa," Aurus said to the two of them, which left them radiating auras of slight confusion. In response to their auras, Aurus went ahead and said, "We're inside the Tower of Seclusion, which means there's no need for formalities whatsoever."

"Anyways, I've summoned the two of you out of the system for a very special reason," Aurus added, to which the two radiated auras of interest.

"What might it be, Master~?" Charisa was the first one who asked Aurus this question, to which Fenrir nodded in response, telling Aurus that he had the same thoughts as well. Without delay, Aurus let out a chuckle before saying, "I've summoned the two of you out of the system because we're going to meet the three new comrades you two are going to have!"

"Oh?" Fenrir and Charisa simultaneously said, with Fenrir wagging his wooden tail back and forth in excitement while Charisa's head flame intensified in brightness due to excitement as well. In response to their excitement, Aurus went ahead and said, "System, summon Eu & Phoria, Terrence, and Marielle!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

It did not take long for three rays of light to appear out of Aurus's body, with each ray of light directed towards a certain spot in the room Aurus was in. Fortunately, these three rays of light were directed at the center of Aurus, Fenrir, and Charisa, allowing the three of them to get a good view of the three new Allies.

Whoosh!

Soon enough, the three new Allies had revealed themselves to the three, with Charisa saying at the very instant the new Allies had revealed themselves to them, "Master, they look…weak."

"How dare you call me weak!" Surprisingly, one of the three new Allies had responded to Charisa's words, which surprised Aurus as he knew very well that these allies were all at the C-grade Inanimate level. Not long after that, two voices from the new Allies resounded, saying, "Master…not powered up…us…yet…"

It did not take long for Aurus to find out who from the new Allies were responding to Charisa's words, with the one replying in an eloquent manner being the one with an Omega-grade potential, [Marielle Glaciesta]. As for the two voices that replied at the same time, that came from the A-grade turned SS-grade, [Eu & Phoria].

In response to this, Aurus could not help but focus his sense of vision on the remaining Ally that hasn't talked yet. He went ahead and asked this new Ally, "Can you speak as well, Terrence?"

"…" Terrence, who was the only Ally that hasn't spoken yet, remained silent for a few seconds. Eventually, a word came out of this Ally, saying, "…Yes."

"I'm quite surprised the new Allies you've summoned can already speak, Master," Fenrir could not help but say, slightly surprised. He then added, "Anyways, why did you summon them, Master?"

"In preparation for my next evolution," Aurus responded to Fenrir's question. He then added, "Well, that's the first reason. The second reason is for our fusion attack to grow stronger, while the third reason is for you two to have more comrades to work with."

"I see…" Fenrir muttered in response. Surprisingly, after Fenrir was finished asking Aurus this question, a voice resounded throughout the room, asking Aurus, "Uh…are you my Master? Can you go ahead and increase my power as fast as possible? I want to show these two inferior beings who's superior."

"Hm?" Not expecting the question, Aurus could not help but ask, "Who said that?"

"It is I, Marielle Glaciesta, Master," Marielle responded to Aurus's question, whose appearance was a puddle of water.

"And by inferior beings, who are you referring to?" Aurus could not help but follow up with this question. In response, Marielle said, "Of course, it is the two beings beside me that are on the same level. I can't believe these two are standing on the same ground as me."

"I have a feeling I won't like this puddle of water, Master," Charisa could not help but say. As for the two Allies beside Marielle, Eu & Phoria replied with, "How rude…you're no…different…"

While Terrence replied with one word, saying, "…Rude."

Feeling that this situation might escalate, Aurus let out a long sigh before saying, "Alright, alright. Marielle has a point. That's what I'm planning to do before evolving anyway."

He then focused his sense of vision towards Charisa and Fenrir before asking them, "I have a ton of unused experience points to max out your levels. Is it fine if I evolve them first before I max you two out?"

"I don't see any problem with that, Master," Fenrir said in response to Aurus's words. He then added, "I'm also quite curious as to how they look at a higher grade, Master."

"I feel the same way, Master!" Charisa voiced out that she shared the same opinion as Fenrir. But then, her sense of vision was soon focused on the puddle of water before she sent a strand of energy towards Aurus, saying, "Though I feel like that arrogant puddle of water would probably become ugly at a higher grade."

In response to Charisa's secret message, Aurus let out an awkward chuckle before taking in a deep breath through his body. He then said, "Alright, it's time for you three to become stronger."

"Theresa, max out the levels of these three new allies," Aurus soon said to Theresa, who was on her left shoulder. Theresa soon responded, "As you wish, Master!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

While Theresa was allocating the unused experience points Aurus had towards the three new allies he had summoned, Charisa could not help but notice Theresa and ask him, "What's that on your shoulder, Master?"

"That's Theresa. My personal assistant," Aurus responded to her question before adding, "It's more or less the personification of the system I have."

"I see," Charisa said in response to Aurus's words. Not long after, she went closer to Theresa before saying in a cheerful tone, "Hello there! I'm Charisa, one of Master's Allies! Nice to meet you!"

Surprisingly, while Theresa was still allocating the unused experience points, it turned its head to look at Charisa before smiling and saying, "It's nice to meet you as well, Charisa~"

Ding!

Just as Charisa felt that Theresa was incredibly cute, Theresa looked at Aurus before saying, "Eu & Phoria, Terrence, and Marielle have now reached their maximum levels, Master. Would you like to evolve them?"

Without hesitation, Aurus let out a chuckle before responding, "Of course."

"As you wish, Master," Theresa responded as the three new Allies in the center had changed their appearances after their evolution.

The first one to change was Eu & Phoria, whose appearance a pair of wilted flowers at the C-grade Inanimate level. After evolving to B-grade Inanimate, they had transformed into two flowers that were slightly dead with a bit of grass on their roots.

As for Terrence, whose appearance was a small pebble at C-grade Inanimate level, had now transformed into a slightly larger pebble.

And lastly, Marielle, whose appearance was a puddle of water at C-grade Inanimate level, had transformed into a slightly larger puddle of water.

Aurus could not help but look at the three and mutter to himself, "Why do they look like they belong to some sort of miniature garden?"
