By casually crus.h.i.+ng to death the dungeon boss, I felt a bit of Experience Point engulfing my body, alongside the system notification celebrating my victory.


Ding! Ding! Ding!

[Kireina] acquired the [Blessing of the Giant Feathered-Winged Wyrm Amphithere Tyrant] Skill!]


Another fruitful harvest… I am planning on devouring these Lesser Legendary Relics when this is over, as long as no one could put them to better use in my family, fufu.


And… oh? It seems that the Ancient Reward Loot Box is now being given at Rank S! It looks like this dungeon lower floors increase the rewards exponentially.


Though the monsters in here seem weaker than the Forsaken Labyrinth when we first explored it…


"That was just as fast as the other time, my wife! Couldn"t you give it a little chance at the very least? It was so one-sided that it even made me feel a bit sad for the stupid monster" said Adelle as she used her rapier to cut the boss corpse into five pieces as its body was way too big to be butchered properly.


"I think she is just testing her overall strength without using techniques other than her own body shapes.h.i.+fting… Well, anyone who had eaten three G.o.ds already wouldn"t feel many challenges against these monsters…" said Nesiphae, using her giant axe to cut the fie pieces of the corpse into smaller chunks with her incredible strength.


"Well, it is not like we find much challenge either, she"s the only killing alongside the younglings, we have been just relaxing through this trip for the most part… It is just fun and interesting to explore new dungeons… it feels like going to a whole different country in a way" said Gaby as she manipulated water and created large and sharp blades using pressurized water, which she used to cut the boss into even smaller pieces that could be digested with more ease.


"Yeah, it has been quite fun overall!" laughed Oga, creating roasting flames that would then be covered on a large pot that I brought from my Item Box, it was time to cook once again.


"I don"t know, to be honest, I would be better in my palace drinking tea, tasting new sweets, and reading the newest Light Novels…" muttered Nefert.i.ti sitting in the middle of the air with her natural floating abilities.


"I"m having a lot of fun seeing my children grow strong… but I think the same to be honest…" said Nephiana.


"Of course, you two would think that! After all, you two are neets!" said Nixephine.


"Neet?! I am not a neet! That"s only Nephiana!" barked back Nefert.i.ti.


"Hey! I am not a neet, I just like being home!" said Nephiana back to Nefert.i.ti.


"To be honest, anywhere is fine as long as we are at Kireina-sama"s side," said Sofelaia.


"Indeed, my sister, as long as we are at our wife"s side, we always have fun one way or another," said Sofarpia with a mischievous smile.


"H-Hey don"t say that…" said Sofelaia.


"Oh? It seems that saying "one way or another" made you blush?" laughed Sofarpia.


"Ufufu, I know that the thing you always look forward to every day is the rough and sweaty nights that we spend with Kireina-sama, Sofelaia~" laughed Lilith that was near the centaur twins.


"L-Lilith-sama! I never thought you capable of saying such embarra.s.sing and shameless words!" said Sofelaia.


"I suppose we are addressing that… Although you seem to not like talking about it, you are one of the most active at night when the time comes, Sofelaia" added Charlotte.


"W-Why did the topic suddenly changed into that?" asked Sofelaia.


"I think that it shouldn"t be the correct topic for now, although the kids are far away from us, we shouldn"t openly talk about night… activities for now," said Altani.


"Yeah, I agree! Also, I am not a neet, so please stop saying that!" said Nephiana, glancing back at Nixephine.


Nixephine saw Nephiana"s cute face as she could not help but pet her hair and fluffy feathers.


"Hey! Ah, stop petting me! I am not a pet… to be petted! Only Kireina-sama can pet me!" said Nephiana.


"I am sorry but you"re way too cute, Nephiana, ufufu~ Okay, I won"t call you a neet anymore then~," said Nixephine.


"Okay? And what about me?" asked Nefert.i.ti.


Nixephine gave Nefert.i.ti a small glance.


"Ah, no, you"re just a neet dog," said Nixephine.


"I am not a neet! BARK! BARK! BARK!"


Nefert.i.ti began to bark, for real this time.


"She"s actually barking?" asked Kaguya at Oga"s side as she helped her control the fire to roast the meat and prepare it in different ways.


Nixephine laughed at Nefert.i.ti"s barking, as she was nothing but a cute little pup at this point… I could not help but agree with her as I glanced at her from afar while I chatted with my children.


I know this is a bit cruel… but her frustration looked so… cute.


"Ufufu~ You"re barking now? I guess you"re really a neet dog after all!" laughed Nixephine.


"I am not a dog nor a neet! BARK!" barked Nefert.i.ti.


"T-Then you should stop barking, right?" asked Kaguya.


"Ah… Was I barking? Ah! I couldn"t contain myself!" cried Nefert.i.ti.


"Don"t worry, Nefert.i.ti, you"re very cute as you are, even if you"re a dog" I said.


"Eeeeh? But I am not a dog, I am a Light Spirit!" said Nefert.i.ti.


"You look like a doggie,��� said Nephiana.


"Ugh, fine! Think whatever you want… But I am not a neet!" said Nefert.i.ti.


"You"re a neet though. You fit all the characteristics of one! Accept it!" said Charlotte.


"Eeeh?! Even you, Charlotte?!" asked Nefert.i.ti.


"We all know Nefert.i.ti is a neet," said Lilith.


"Wait for a second! Why?! I-I was… what does it even make someone a neet?" asked Nefert.i.ti.


"Well, first of all… liking to stay indoors… but without doing anything productive…" said Lilith.


"…Eh?!" said Nefert.i.ti.


"And eating sweets and snacks alongside tea or liquor…" added Charlotte.


"Eh?!" barked Nefert.i.ti.


"And barely moving from her room… while doing something like reading a book or watching theater," said Altani.


"Ah?! W-Wait a second… I-I really do all of that… I am really a neet…?" asked Nefert.i.ti.


"But what about Charlotte? Doesn"t she stays at her workshop all day?" asked Oga.


"Yeah but I mostly work, I work and work," said Charlotte.


"So as long as you do something productive like working, it is not considered a neet?" asked Kaguya.


"That"s right!" That"s what the Rin Sisters said" said Nixephine.


"T-Then I must learn something… So, I am no longer a neet!" said Nefert.i.ti.


The chat between the girls continued with this relaxed tone, it seems that they were just messing around with Nefert.i.ti… but she took it all too seriously and was now considering what to do to be "productive" and not be called a neet.


But I do not really mind having neet wives, I was one before in my previous life, so I cannot judge.


After a few minutes of cooking, some simple meals were ready, as I decided to taste the boss raw and cooked. The raw meat was a flavor that seemed to be a combination of red and white meat, it was rather tough uncooked and very elastic, but it was rich in flavor and the blood was sweet like honey.


I also ate the scales, which were bitter and released sparks of electricity as I munched them inside my mouth, then the eyes, the juicy brain, and the jaw, most bones, and the fangs.


When the meat was cooked, it would become as tender as chicken, and it would release most of its flavors through a comforting hot pot, but Rimuru also made curry with the meat, which was just as delicious.


In the middle of our feast, the next boss sp.a.w.ned. This time it was a Five-Headed Thunder Eagle, which had golden horns atop each head, resembling crowns. It had three pairs of wings, and its little legs were winged as well. It released a powerful golden aura of lightning, showing that it seemed stronger than the previous boss.


This one took a few minutes for the younglings, with the a.s.sistance of their big siblings to make things swifter.


After beginning to cook this one and being in the middle of eating it, the third boss appeared, which was clearly weaker than the two as its atmosphere was less intimidating and its attacks less destructive. It was a Giant Thunderstorm Slime Tyrant Emperor, a giant yellow-colored Thunder Slime with a large and spherical crystalline core in the middle of its slimy body, which was a clear as day weakness that was quickly abused by the Harpy Siblings, who used their powers to summon a materialized magic spear to pierce through the core and finish it off without breaking a sweat.


This slime core was bitter and tough, and its slime did not have any particular flavor, but when it was added into sugar, it would dry out and become sweet gelatin, which the younglings seemed to love.


After being done with this floor, we decided to take a rest for the rest of the day and night, as the babies were sleepy and this was more like their first adventure, hurrying them up would not be a wise decision.

[LEVEL 099/250] [EXP 27.245.960.729.979/36.500.000.000.000] (Added!)


Today I woke up wondering some things regarding the abilities I was acquiring, even after growing so strong, it seems that skills still keep popping up on me…


This was strange, as I always thought that the stronger, I grew, the harder it would be for skills to appear as the monsters I defeat needed to be in a similar strength than mine. But this was not exactly the case, it seemed.


Even after eating three G.o.ds, I could still acquire skills from dungeon bosses that I had not eaten before, or as long as I had not eaten many strong bosses of their same family before… such as the Chimeric Kraken in Kaggoth"s dungeon, which I had eaten many dungeon bosses of its same appearance and powers inside the Forsaken Labyrinth.


Perhaps this rule of "getting skills from equally strong beings" did not apply with very high-quality beings, such as Heroes that could be weaker than me, Epic Skill Holders, or various Dungeon Bosses.


What intrigued me, even more, was that some skills weren"t a.s.similated by superior skills, meaning that their purpose wasn"t completely similar to the skills that a.s.similated them… perhaps this also could be a hint of my own powers and capabilities themselves, guiding me through a path where I should fuse certain skills… which I think could create new "parts" or "fragments" of the Calamity Abyss Demon Skill Set…


Perhaps I could get skills such as the "legs", the "wings" and the "core"? But I still need many skills to fuse over for that to ever happen… and they usually happen in my dreams, weirdly enough.


For now, I should try to level up these skills if possible. Although fighting weak monsters will not level up my skills as much, as fighting G.o.ds or their subordinates should be preferred… or changing Cla.s.ses.


I have been trying to level up my Eye-related Skills, but it had become quite hard as of now, just shooting laser and using their effects on random monsters will not work anymore.


Maybe I will kill the resp.a.w.n boss with them for an interesting show.
