Exiled with a Useless Skill 'Gacha', but It Turns Out to Be a Legendary Pull That Only Summons Gods - All I Get Are Beautiful Goddess! - Chapter 8

The discovery of the mithril vein brought great vitality to the frontier city of Frontier.

The guild paid me a hefty reward, instantly filling my pockets.

But this achievement also made my name resound all the way to the royal capital.

The sudden fame left me slightly bewildered.

Then one day, an investigation team from the capital arrived to survey the vein.

And leading the escort unit that came to Frontier was the last person I wanted to see.

“Long time no see, Kai.”

My elder brother, Leo Astel, clad in the extravagant robes befitting an elite of the Royal Mage Corps.

His sharp gaze was exactly the same as the day he had exiled me.

“Brother!”

The unexpected reunion made my heart pound unpleasantly.

Tension and discomfort raced through my entire body.

“I heard you were making a name for yourself in the frontier but I never imagined it would be to this extent.”

Leo seemed unwilling to believe my accomplishments or rather, he didn’t want to believe them.

“You must be using some kind of monster that pretends to be a goddess. Otherwise, a failure like you could never achieve something like this.”

The same condescending tone as always.

The old me would have shrunk back, unable to retort.

But the current me was different.

I had comrades I could trust.

I had overcome challenges with my own strength.

“Can you still say the same after seeing me now?”

I calmly responded with nothing but the truth.

My composed attitude seemed to provoke Leo’s pride instead.

His face twisted in anger.

Led by us, Leo’s investigation team headed toward the abandoned mine.

Along the way, disaster struck.

Remnants of earth golems lurking near the mine’s entrance attacked the team.

Three in total.

Leo immediately took a defensive stance.

“Stay back, Kai! I’ll show you, my magic!”

Smugly, Leo unleashed a fire-based spell.

A Fireball struck the golem and exploded.

But the golem didn’t even flinch.

Half-baked magic had no effect on its stone body.

“What!?”

Leo was stunned.

One of the golems raised its fist, taking aim at him.

“That’s enough.”

At the same time as my voice, Brynhilde leaped in front of Leo.

Her divine spear effortlessly intercepted the golem’s fist.

Then, with a fluid motion, she counterattacked, shattering the golem’s core in a single strike.

The remaining two were subdued instantly Brynhilde, aided by Minerva’s magic and Freya’s support, made quick work of them.

The difference in strength was overwhelming.

“……”

Leo stood frozen, unable to speak.

My comrades had crushed the monsters he couldn’t even scratch as if they were nothing.

And at the center, I stood tall, issuing commands with confidence.

He had no choice but to acknowledge Kai’s strength.

After completing the escort mission, Leo returned to the capital without a word.

His retreating figure looked somehow smaller.

I felt that I had finally settled things with my past.

I no longer needed to fear my brother’s shadow.

I would walk my own path.

Once more, I engraved my gratitude for my comrades into my heart.

With the enormous reward in hand, I decided to buy a house in town to serve as our new base of operations.

The beginning of our new life.
