After joining back with my family, I quickly began to eat the delicious preparations made by my True Body Clones, Slime Clones, and the whole cooking team led by Chok.u.motsu and Kaen.

The Dragon Boss meat was more tender than the Dragonoid Hidden Boss, the Dragon meat was cut into many filets, some were grilled while being coated in sweet soy sauce-like sauce, although it was not specifically made with the soy seed, there was a seed rather similar which was used for the preparation, dungeon salt that had an aromatic flavor was also added, alongside other types of sauces. The Dragon meat was able to absorb the flavors of the sauce coated over.

The taste was rather unique, the meat was tender yet firm, the grease was finely spread across the flesh and never came as an annoyance, melting into delicious juices that merged with the sauces, these grilled filets were heavenly in flavor, and perhaps, due to the strength of the creature, the quality of the product was simply premium.

The Dragonoid on the other side had tougher meat as it was more packed with muscles, it also had a more humanoid form that made its meat long and flexible, almost chewy if eaten raw. There was sas.h.i.+mi on the table of this meat, which had a similar texture to raw tuna, a bit of a spicy sauce similar to wasabi, and some of our soy sauce imitations made wonders of this sas.h.i.+mi, which was finely chopped by Chok.u.motsu and Kaen"s expert cooking knife arts.

The raw sas.h.i.+mi was refres.h.i.+ng and cold, and it did not have any hint of blood as the Blood Fairy Sisters Trio had cleansed the bosses from their blood, although I drank a lot too, it did not give me Blood Strength as it was a Dungeon Monster, and Blood Strength seemed to only increase when I drank the blood of beings born naturally…

I was still not much aware of how this exactly worked, but something within nature, quality, or components of the blood of monsters sp.a.w.ned in dungeons was quite different than the one from monsters naturally born… perhaps the lack of good quality, or the amount of excess mana that weakened the blood"s properties or something, but I wonder if there could be a cla.s.s that could let me drink this blood and strengthen from myself from it at last… Perhaps I might, as I have now gotten two ten thousand Skill Points elixirs, I will go ham in Cla.s.s Changes soon enough.

Anyways, going back to the main topic at hand, the cooked meat of the Dragonoid was delicious, although tougher, if properly boiled or minced and made into hamburgers, meatb.a.l.l.s, or meatloaf, it would become a wonderful thing to my tastebuds. Even more, if this meat was merged with the Dragon meat, forming what I called the perfect combination. Both flavors merged together incredibly well, the saltiness and greasiness of the dragon and the sweetness and toughness of the Dragonoid. I could not help but indulge in my appet.i.te, which could not be satiated quite easily.

Nirah at my side used both of her mouths to eat, her snake-headed tail became as big as a truck and began to gulp the grilled filets of Dragon and Dragonoid one by one, although her tail was often scared of everything, it seemed to enjoy when it was time to eat… Nirah on the other side enjoyed some sas.h.i.+mi, she liked the spicy sauce despite being so young, she had a very strong tongue to resist it as if nothing… As I glanced at her and tail eat… I wonder how they actually worked… like, the physiology… Well, it is better to not think about it.

"Mama! This is delicious!" said Nirah.

"I see that Tail-chan is eating happily, does it not bother you?" I asked Nirah.

"Tail-chan eats what I do, and I eat what she eats! Don"t worry, although we share a stomach, it is excessively big, mama!" said Nirah, I glanced at her tiny belly and the food seemed to disappear from within her body as Tail-chan gulped it down… she has a part of my Devour through my Blessing, so it is most likely that she possesses a near impossible to fill stomach… It is as if it were a void.

"I see, well, it is good that you"re well-fed," I said.

"Mommy, I want more!" said Vudia, asking me for seconds.

"Coming," I said, walking with another of my bodies and grabbing a large steak of at least one meter long, putting it over a wooden table and serving it to Vudia, she quickly began to voraciously eat it up, she had most of her face nasty with the sauce, but that was just part of her cuteness.

"Hmm, this Dragon meat and the Dragonoid are so good! I feel like I am getting a bit stronger! Is it because I am part Dragon now?" asked Lilith.

"That must be the case, I feel the same power surging through me," said Altani.

"And me, fufufu~ Despite being a devilish demoness, I am part dragon too! Quite the wonderful being that I am…" said Acelina.

"Look, mom, I can make this now!" said Valentia as she showed us her hands shapes.h.i.+ft into monstrous heads of the Thunder Dragon Overlord and the Thunder Dragonoid Overlord! They looked just like the original ones, and they even held similar powers.

"Woah, that"s way too cool, my daughter! d.a.m.n, I wish I could do the same…" said Gaby.

"Impressive, so you can do that now with any monster you eat? Perhaps it could be a good way to use the skills you acquire from them…" I said.

"Yeah, I can also do this, this, and this!" said Valentia, shaping her arms and even the tip of her tail as the various monsters we ate, including the zombie dragon Divine Beasts, and even the s.p.a.ce attribute ones! Perhaps she might be capable of developing s.p.a.ce Attribute Skills more through such methods.

"Amazing, Valentia! It seems that everyone is way stronger now that you all ate so many Divine Beasts and even various G.o.d Fragments" I said.

"I can shape as a dragon if you want, Gaby-sama!" said Gubo, Gaby"s Thunder Slime pet as she shapes.h.i.+fted into the form of a dragon… although it was still made up of yellow slime.

"Grawr!" she said.

"That"s way too cute…" muttered Aarae.

"I am not cute, I am a dragon!" said Gubo.

"She misspelled Dragon… even cuter…" muttered Aarae.

"This meat is amazing, I can feel my Thunder Attribute affinity, and the powers within my soul slowly awaken more… Although it might not be as good as consuming a Thunder Attribute Divinity… It is good enough" said Brontes with a pleasant smile. Her Aura was growing larger as she consumed the meat of these two boss monsters.

"Indeed, I can feel that I am growing from it too! But I wish I had my daughter"s ability though! I want to eat divine things!" said Gaby with a bit of frustration, despite being plenty strong already.

"I think we will reach that point someday, girls, don"t get all frustrated over it," said Zehe.

"Oh? Zehe? You"re so calm now, weren"t you the one that wanted this the most though?" asked Gaby.

"I"ve gotten past that… As I have found new ways to develop my abilities after having fought Kheseerad… My Shadow and Dark Attribute Magic might be able to develop into Spatial Magic if I continue through this path and with honey"s blessing and enlightenment… I think I can reach it with enough effort and time put into it" said Zehe.

"Well, I"m glad I am helping… despite not doing anything at all… I guess the Enlightenment-type Cla.s.ses are pretty strong to be capable of giving you all so many boosts in knowledge and power just by me existing…" I said.

"Well, it is not only that, Kireina, but your whole existence seems to constantly leak power into our very souls and bodies… It is a mystical feeling to simply be at your side at this point. As long as we are around you, we always feel as if we could have enough power to fight G.o.ds… I"ve developed so much that I often don"t recognize myself from the past, fufu" laughed Nesiphae.

"Mommy, you"re crazy strong now! Even if I can eat divine beings, your techniques are unparalleled" said Amiphossia.

"Well, that could be discussed!" said Truhan proudly.

"Dear, you always get c.o.c.ky when you get drunk… Sorry, Celica, he didn"t mean to sound rude," said Celica.

"No, it"s fine! Truhan and you are the perfect training partners I could ask, both of you are giants that can match my size and power, and also have as much strength and masterful techniques as me! I wouldn"t be able to polish myself so much without your a.s.sistance" said Nesiphae.

"Hm! Let"s keep fighting and growing stronger…! Aahh… This booze is good! What is it?" asked Truhan.

"That"s the High Thunder Gillmen specialty, Truhan-sama. It is a liquor made by fermenting several types of wild fruits and also sweet and bitter algae found in the lake of the dungeon for several years," said Nannet.

"I see! This is crazy good!" said Truhan.

"Yeah, I agree, though it is funny how you"re weaker to alcohol than me, gahaha!" laughed Celica at Truhan"s side while punching his shoulder.

"H-Hey! I am not going to lose!" said Truhan.

"Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom… More, more!" said the little Nephilim and Rephaite, the young children of Truhan and Celica… they had recently discovered the ability to divide themselves in two and were now eating individually, they were similar to my Harpy babies as they could merge at will to gain power.

"Okay, but don"t go overboard, okay?" said Celica as she feeds her children more meat.

"Hmm! My little angels! You two will get even bigger than daddy, I bet!" said Truhan with a ridiculous blushed face as he petted his children while being a bit drunk.

The dinner continued for as long as there was food, and that was, of course, a lot of time. Eventually, we went back home, where the feast actually continued across the nation until late at night, summoning Thunder Dragons made it possible for me to be capable of letting all of my people taste the exotic meat.

Deep at night, I decided to ask the G.o.ds about another thing that I had in mind while most people were sleeping.

Deep at night, I decided to ask the G.o.ds another thing that I had in mind while most people were sleeping.

After having ended the enormous feast that took hold in the Dark Moon Empire, Kireina decided to contact Agatheina and the other G.o.ds of her Pantheon, seeking more answers about the questions that had arisen within her mind as she did many things, such as if there were others capable of merging dungeons.

"Ah! Kireina-sama! Another time today? What is it? You can ask anything!" said Agatheina.

"Ah… Kireina-sama, I"ve woke up, I wanted to ask you something before- Ahh! …Huh?"

Hydros seemed to have tried to speak to Kireina, but something happened before it could finish his words… although Kireina expected Agatheina to throw it away again, it seemed that she contained herself… but right before hitting it, of course. This probably explains why it yelled but then wondered what had happened.

"Err, are you busy? Maybe I should call another day…" Kireina asked.

"No, wait! Stay! S-Sorry for that, Kireina-sama! It was… err, I promise that I won"t try that again!" said Agatheina.

"What did you even do?" Kireina asked.

"Ugh… Agatheina-sama is so rude with the humble Hydros" said Hydros.

"Agatheina, please don"t hit Hydros again…" Kireina said.

"I-I didn"t though! Almost!" said Agatheina.

"Yeah… but the shockwave hurt my bare soul a bit…" said Hydros.

"Sigh… Hydros, what did you wanted to request of me, by the way?" Kireina asked.

"Ah! Kireina-sama, I heard that you have amazing capabilities! I was wondering if you could grant me a physical body, I have heard that Nirah, one of your daughters, used to be a Demon G.o.d! Could you do something similar and grant me a mortal body?" asked Hydros.

"Hmm… It should be possible…" Kireina said.

"And make it female… please!" said Hydros.

"Wait, female? I hear that you were originally male… are you okay with that?" Kireina asked.

"Yes! I am! I am very okay with it, Kireina-sama~!" said Hydros.

"…Alright then," Kireina said, thinking that it was fine if Hydros wanted it so badly… Though she began to suspect that there might be some scheme behind this…
