Chapter 407: [405] Demons
Walking through the streets of Itogami Island, August was utterly astonished.
This world boasted advanced technology, yet the supernatural side was equally developed, blending seamlessly with modern innovations. Throughout his journey, August sensed numerous magical auras. These individuals, indistinguishable from ordinary people, lived harmoniously on this peculiar island.
Truly, Itogami Island was a sanctuary for magical beings. Demons, yokai, elves, beastmen, vampires, artificial lifeforms—an endless variety of races coexisted here.
However, August faced a significant problem: he was broke.
It was an embarrassing predicament. While he had an abundance of gold and treasures from other worlds—his treasury was filled with millions of otherworldly coins—this modern society operated on paper currency and digital payments.
Unfortunately, August was an unregistered resident in this world. He had no local currency, and while he did own a smartphone, it was from the High School DxD world and lacked signal reception here. As for Japanese yen or U.S. dollars, those were out of the question. Back in the High School DxD world, August never needed to pay for anything.
He regretted not bringing his two faithful companions, Hilda and Yuluda, who always handled everything for him. Their absence now left him yearning for their assistance.
Suddenly, August's sharp eyes caught a group of shady figures nearby. Each of them emanated magical energy.
A mischievous grin spread across his face. So even in a two-dimensional world like this, Japan still produced its fair share of delinquents.
