Lord of Avalon : Lost in Another World

A Quiet Night and a New Skill

Late at night, Ardi sat on his futon, leaning comfortably against the wall. Yui, in her human form, sat beside him with her legs neatly folded. The warm glow of a lantern cast a peaceful atmosphere over the room after a long day.

As Ardi opened his system interface, he noticed a blinking notification icon in the top corner of the screen.

"Huh? A new notification?" he murmured.

He tapped the icon, and a transparent panel appeared in front of him.

[New Skill Acquired!]

Presence Concealment E (Uncommon Tier Skill)

A fundamental stealth technique allowing the user to reduce their presence and blend into the surroundings. Effective against lower-tier detection skills but easily broken by high-level perception abilities.

Ardi smirked. "Finally... two weeks of hard training are starting to pay off."

Yui, peeking at his panel, raised an eyebrow. "So now you can play ninja for real?" she teased.

Ardi chuckled. "Not play—this will be useful in the future. At least I won't look like a total rookie in front of Ren and the others."

Yui smiled softly. "It's good to see you improving, Master~"

Closing the skill panel, Ardi opened the quest menu and spotted a Claim All button under his active quests. Without hesitation, he pressed it.

Yui whistled as she read the description. "If that thing can truly merge magic and technology, the village will advance at an incredible pace."

Ardi nodded in agreement, then turned to Yui with a playful grin. "But more importantly... I need to make sure my dear assistant gets enough rest."

Yui eyed him suspiciously. "What do you mean?"

Without warning, Ardi pulled her into a warm embrace.

"Anata—!" Yui gasped, her face turning red as she pressed against his chest.

Ardi chuckled and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Good night, Yui. Thanks for always staying with me."

Yui remained silent for a moment before smiling softly and closing her eyes. "Good night too, Anata…" she whispered.

----------------------------------------

The Morning Gacha Ritual

The next morning, Ardi, Yui, and Megumi enjoyed breakfast in the Lord's Office. Megumi had prepared a delicious meal, and Ardi savored the warmth of his tea while checking his system inventory.

----------------------------------------

Low-Tier Gacha Tickets: x51

Mid-Tier Gacha Tickets: x21

----------------------------------------

Ardi let out a deep sigh. "This is too much... I need to start using them."

Turning to the two girls beside him, he grinned mischievously.

"Yui, Megumi... Give me your luck!"

Both girls exchanged confused glances before looking back at Ardi.

"...What?" Yui frowned.

"I need your blessing before I start the gacha!" Ardi said seriously.

Yui crossed her arms, unimpressed. "Anata, it's too early for your nonsense."

Ardi smiled, already used to Yui's teasing. "Come on, Yui. You know my gacha luck is terrible. If I have your help, I might actually get something good!"

Megumi, sitting beside Yui, covered her mouth, trying to hide a small smile.

Yui sighed but kept teasing. "Fine, fine. Do whatever you want."

Without hesitation, Ardi suddenly pulled Yui into a kiss.

"Mmph—?!"

Yui's eyes widened in shock. She resisted at first, but as the kiss deepened, her body slowly relaxed.

When Ardi finally let go, Yui's face was completely red.

"A-Anata! You—! You're so shameless!" Yui covered her face with both hands.

Ardi chuckled before shifting his attention to Megumi, who had been silently watching with a flustered expression.

"Megumi, I need your luck too."

Megumi's eyes widened slightly as Ardi approached her.

"A-Ardi-sama, I..."

Unlike Yui, who struggled, Megumi stayed still, allowing Ardi to kiss her softly.

Yui, now recovering from her embarrassment, gawked at them.

"W-WAIT! MEGUMI?! You're just letting him do that?!"

Megumi lowered her head, her face growing even redder as she clenched the hem of her clothes.

"U-Um... Ardi-sama can do whatever he wants…" she murmured shyly.

Ardi smiled in satisfaction, while Yui sighed in defeat and sipped her tea, clearly sulking.

----------------------------------------

50x Low-Tier Gacha Pulls

Ardi opened the Gacha Menu, selected Low-Tier Gacha, and went for a 10x pull.

He pulled the lever, and ten glowing orbs appeared in various colors.

Pull 1-10: Recipe Orbs

Contained various recipes, including Basic Soap, Herbal Poultice, and Basic Fertilizer.

Nodding in approval, he pulled again.

"Hoo~ A warship? Interesting."

Excited, Ardi pulled again.

Pull 21-30: Skill Book & Job Scroll Orbs

"Good, these will help the villagers."

For the fourth pull, he got:

Pull 31-40: Summoning Ticket Orbs

Ardi frowned. "Huh... This could be useful."

For the final pull, he let Megumi do it.

With hesitation, Megumi gently pulled the lever.

Pull 41-50: Natural Resource & Wonder Orbs

Contained rare natural resources and special wonders to help village expansion.

Seeing the result, Ardi hugged Megumi tightly. "Thank you, Megumi! Your luck is amazing!"

Megumi, now completely red, simply nodded. Meanwhile, Yui pouted, looking away.

----------------------------------------

10x Mid-Tier Gacha Pull

Ardi moved on to the Mid-Tier Gacha and turned to Yui.

"Now it's your turn, Yui~"

Still pouting, Yui refused. "No. I'm not helping after what you did earlier!"

Ardi sighed and began sweet-talking her. After a few minutes, Yui finally gave in.

"...Hmph. Fine. But only once!" she huffed, pulling the lever.

Suddenly, ten glowing orbs appeared—three rainbow-colored among them!

Ardi's eyes widened.

"H-Hah?! Rainbow orbs?!"

Yui, now just as bit upset, blinked in surprise.

"Whoa... That's incredible luck!"

Megumi gazed at the orbs with curiosity.

Yui explained, "Rainbow orbs are system-exclusive items. They only appear once and can range from common to legendary!"

Ardi's excitement surged.

"Alright... Let's see what we got!"

With a big grin, he reached for the first epic-tier rainbow orb.

"…Fair point."

"…Maybe?"

Yui sighed. "Why do I even try to warn you in the first place? what a big child."

As Ardi looked over his new loot, a satisfied grin formed on his face.

"Not bad. This haul might be the best one yet."

Yui crossed her arms. "And how many of these will actually be useful instead of gathering dust?"

Ardi chuckled. "Guess we'll find out soon."
