//I'm going to wait a little bit for Seth to summon his other waifus because I want him to be the type of guy to max out one character and only then move on to another.//
================================================================
"I should probably summon you some equipment..."
Erza and Seth were still both sitting down, having just finished their meal. It was kind of surprising to see a fit, curvy woman like Erza devour a whole cake faster than it took Seth to eat one bacon sandwich, although that sandwich was a fucking gift from god with how good it tasted. Anywho, Seth presented Erza with the Iron Longsword that dropped from King Slime, but according to her it was about the same quality as her current weapons, so essentially useless unless proven otherwise.
Still, Seth had 11 Tickets left and two gacha banners to pull. He could try summoning another 5★ Persona, but that would feel a bit... iffy. He wanted to have one overpowered unit before starting on another, plus he was already fairways into getting between Erza's legs and didn't have the resources to do so double-time with another woman present.
So, Seth did the somewhat dumb, controversial thing of wasting 10 Tickets on summoning equipment from a gacha banner. This left him with only one ticket left, but Seth had hope that something nice might drop for his beautiful, red-haired beauty of a companion. The pull was finished and the cards were laid out, now if only Seth could summon some nice swords for the big titty waifu.
"You're a dual-wielder, right?"
"That's right."
A 3★ greatsword dropped, as well as a bow and a pair of daggers, those could be useful but they weren't quite the swords that Seth was looking for. Unfortunately for our hero, it would seem that his luck with 5★ has run out for today. He did however get something that would prove to be quite useful to his sexy friend, and that was two longswords, one golden and one emerald, both 4★ weapons.
>[Golden Longsword]<
>[★★★★ - Super Rare]<
>[ATK - 200]<
>[Emerald Longsword]<
>[★★★★ - Super Rare]<
>[ATK - 200]<
Seth also pulled a few armour pieces, but there is no way he's giving them to Erza to cover up ANYTHING. Instead, he decided to wear them himself. A pair of gauntlets and knee-guards, pretty low-tier stuff, being 3★ and all that, but they were better than nothing.
Erza gratefully took the two swords from Seth, giving them a few practice swings before nodding, clearly satisfied with the performance. Meanwhile, Seth made sure to put Erza's default weapons into Storage, either for later use or to sell them. He was hoping for at least some gold, but these types of default weapons usually sell for barely anything in games.

>[Attack: 2900 - Defence: 1000]<

Seth took a brief look over Erza's stats, feeling a bit worried about her lack of DEF, but the added ATK was definitely a big bonus in his eyes.
"Shall we continue master?"
"Seth is fine."
"Alright, my apologies. Shall we continue, Seth?"
Erza's tone was still a bit too stiff for Seth's liking, but it was part of her character and charm. Not to mention she was kind of hot while being a hardass. So overall Seth didn't end up caring all that much, he nodded in response and the two were off to Level 11. No new Unique Skill for Seth just yet, although he guessed that it made sense he wouldn't get one every 10 levels, that would mean 100 different skills by the time Level 1000 came around.
Erza kicked open the large set of wooden doors, and this time, the two were greeted with a slightly more furbished but still barebones stone room. Dirty, rugged carpet lined some parts of the ground, a few pieces of pottery were in the corners and a cabinet or closet could be seen placed against the wall. However, these things were secondary to the enemies facing Seth and Erza. They were no longer slimes. Instead... they were armoured slimes.
Yup, just more slimes but with armour this time. With her PASSIVE boost, Erza made short work of any and all enemies in the span of literally less than 10 seconds. As a precaution, Seth decided to wield a weapon himself, although he was wielding just a random Iron Longsword as opposed to the fancy weapons Erza had. She was stronger than him, after all. He needed her to fight for him, otherwise, he's a goner.
Level 12, nothing new. More armoured slimes.
Level 13, more armoured slimes.
Level 14, a large armoured slime and a small armoured slime. Erza took them both out at the same time.
At level 15, the two encountered a pair of large slimes. Erza took them out with two strokes of her swords.
But, just as the two were about to make it to Level 16, something strange happened. The room before them shifted with a brief buzz, and the two no longer stood against some armoured slimes but were face to face with a presumably old man clad in a large black cloak and a large assortment of items with price tags lying on the wide wooden table in front of him.
"Welcome, travellers," the man greeted the two in the typical, mysterious tone that Seth was expecting.
"Greetings," both the male and the female greeted the shopkeeper at the same time, but neither of the two commented on it.
Seth was far too eager to see what the shopkeeper had in store and for what price. This was a perfect opportunity to get a grasp of prices here in the tower, and Seth wasn't going to miss it. Upon walking closer, Seth noticed the presence of a few pieces of 3★ armour, some 3★ weapons and so on. Most of this seemed quite trash but it was already pretty expensive costing around 50 000 Gold. Seth's eyes bulged out when he saw the prices, especially one 4★ Platinum Shield that cost 250 000 Gold.
"...Um, do you also buy things?" Seth's semi-awkward question made the shopkeeper laugh slightly.
"Yes, I do. What do you have to offer?"
Seth immediately called upon the weapons and other 3★ equipment he had summoned, he was going to keep the trashy food items just for safety, they don't have an expiration date anyway. He watched in anticipation as the shopkeeper inspected the weapons, hoping for at least half the price of the ones on display. Erza meanwhile inspected the weapons on display as well, although she didn't seem impressed.
"Hmm, fine equipment you have here, young lad. I'll give you 25 000 Gold for each piece."
"...IT'S YOURS!"
Honestly, someone with more money would know that it was a shitty price, considering it was unused and the equipment was brand new, still, Seth didn't even think to haggle with the old man and instead sold him all 5 remaining pieces of 3★ equipment. Erza had two 4★ swords and Seth was using one 3★ swords as well as two 3★ pieces of armour.
5 x 25 000 = 125 000
[Gold: 133 111]
With the gold he already had, Seth had a pretty impressive sum of money on himself, although when he looked at the prices it looked more like pocket change than anything else. He could only buy 2 3★ pieces of equipment and have 27 145 gold left over. Alternatively, he could buy some miscellaneous items.
>[Inn Pass]<
>[★★★★ - Super Rare]<
>[30 000 Gold]<
>[The next level you visit is guaranteed to be the inn. Can be used only one time.]<
Seth bought one of those in case he and Erza got a bit tired... or frisky, hopefully, it was going to be the second.
[Gold: 103 111]
Seth looked around a bit more, noting a few extra passes to the likes of hot springs and so on, however, these all cost more than 100k Gold, and that was way beyond his budget right now. Instead, bare necessities would have to take priority.
>[Sleeping Bag]<
>[★★★ - Rare]<
>[15 000 Gold]<
Seth bought 2 of those, bringing his total amount of gold down by quite a bit, 1/3 actually. He didn't know when an emergency rest would be needed, so these sleeping bags were bound to come in handy eventually.
[Gold: 73 111]
Looking around some more, neither Erza nor Seth really found anything of interest. There was a box of condoms for basically free, but they were too tiny to fit Seth anyway so he just overlooked them. The food was of pretty low quality too, 3★, which appeared to be the most common drop from summoning gacha. With not much else to buy, the two bid the shopkeeper a farewell and were on their way.
Level 16.
A boring, run of the mill level with nothing special in it. Same with levels 17, 18 and even 19. The slimes either got bigger or multiplied in numbers. They still wore the same, typical iron armour around their soft bodies and it stood absolutely no chance against the might of one extremely busty red-haired knight.
Then, came the boss room yet again.
"Usual tactic, kill it as quickly as possible."
Erza nodded in response, a look of pure determination crossing her face as she, ONCE AGAIN, kicked open the large set of double doors with her high heels. Seth wasn't even surprised or bothered by it, it was kind of hot now that he thought about it... ANYWAY!
>[Queen Slime]<
>[BOSS MONSTER]<
>[Level: 20]<
This time what awaited the two was a female version of the previous boss, however, this one was coloured pink and had a more pointy crown. Queen Slime was also covered in a thick layer of a metallic, darker shade of pink armour.
Erza wasted no time, rushing in while her PASSIVE ability lasted, slashing at the massive slime with both of her swords, creating an X-shaped cut across the frontal plate of Queen Slime's armour. This dealt a good chunk of damage to Queen Slime's health, however, it was nowhere near enough to kill her.
"Erza, remember, go all out!"
"RIGHT!"
>[Skill 3: Crimson Seduction (20 seconds) - temporarily stun all enemies for 10 seconds]<
Using her 3rd, arguably most useful skill, Erza stunned the pink colossus of slime in place with a brief flash of her... bare breasts. She literally gripped the fabric of her bunny suit and briefly peeled off the parts covering her massive titties, hell, she even stunned Seth in the process! And he failed to get that on tape too! DAMMIT!
Seth made sure to burn the image into his memory instead. This truly was a wonderful moment for all humanity. Just before the stun duration ended, Erza tightly gripped both her golden and emerald green sword and performed a rotating slash across Queen Slime's side, dealing fatal damage to her.
>[Skill 2: Dual Clash (5 seconds) - hits 2 targets with 150% of ATK, ignores Elemental Defence. If there's only 1 target present, doubles damage to 300%.]<
The massive slime crumbled moments later into nothing but quickly vaporising goo and leftover pieces of iron that broke off into dust soon after. A notification appeared on Seth's phone soon after, but he was still recovering from the sight of Erza's bare nipples. Damn, he should've gotten a picture of that but he failed!
>[Queen Slime SLAIN]<
>[You received: 10 Tickets, 30 000 Gold, 3★ Leather Boots, 4★ Chainmail Leggings]<
>[Gold: 103 111]<
>[Achievement Unlocked: Royal Slime Slayer]<
>[Rewards: 9 Tickets]<
>[Tickets: 20]<
Seth grinned at his rewards, although he wasn't planning on wearing those crappy-looking Chainmail Leggings. He'll just sell those the next chance he gets. He took a quick look at Erza's stats and was pleasantly surprised to see her level rise by 2. Good, 1/3 of the way to being a 6★ boss-killer.

He also noted that killing a boss monster would reward him with 10 Tickets, he only killed 2 so far so maybe the rewards increased on the higher stages, the number and rarity of other drops certainly seemed to. Although Seth was a little annoyed that no items were dropping from regular enemies.
"Nicely done. Although... I wasn't quite expecting THAT to be honest..."
Erza appeared to have the decency to blush, although she didn't particularly seem to get angry over it, "It's merely a battle tactic, and it works."
"Wanna test it out on me?" this time Erza turned around to completely avoid Seth's gaze, much to his teasing enjoyment.
This was fun, getting a rise out of a busty, hardass woman was a great feeling. Although Seth really wished she would practice that move on him... Goddamn it he needs to command her to do that more often, that shit is wild!
