184 Incredible Items

Today I retrieved the corpses of the Elemental Knights of Poison and Water from my Item Box. The two of them were rather beautiful women, but in my eyes, they were another delicious snack.
I decided to share the Poison Knight with Amiphossia and Nesiphae, while I shared the Water Knight with Gaby and Aarae. Although Valentia, Mady, and Adelle are merfolk, their affinities are very different than pure water, so they wouldn't get as many benefits.
The Knight of Poison was a Half-Poison Elf, a race of elves that live in the underground, they seem to be exiled from the original Elf tribe for being "impure", similar to Dark Elves. From what I've read, both Elven subspecies have created their own tribes in a Poison Forest in a faraway location.
Despite their appearance and powers, they are as peaceful as normal elves and seek coexistence, Athetosea has various trading routes with them, the herbs they can produce have fantastic healing properties, akin to normal elves, and their poison can also be used to create weapons.
This Knight was a Half-Poison Elf, so her parents were most likely a pure Poison Elf and a Human. Her skin and meat were both pale purples, and even their blood was purple. Its flavor was delicious. It had a wonderful sweetness accompanied with citric and spicy hints. It was very unique and delicious meat, I am looking forward to the time I will be able to eat more Poison Elves in the future, hopefully in big quantities.

[Poisonous Arts: Venomous Three-Headed Hydra]
[Poisonous Arts: Full Body Poison Clone]
Amiphossia and Nesiphae were also in love with the Knight's meat and were expecting to devour more of these elves in the future. With the voracious appetite of Nesiphae and my daughter, I believe these elves will end up extinct if they aren't as many…
The Knight of Water was also a delicious meal, although not as tender and flavorful as the Knight of Gemstones, she was still very tender and juicy. With almost no grease in her body, yet it was still filled with countless flavors, with a strong ocean taste.

After devouring the two Knights, I proceeded to enjoy the delicious breakfast made by the prestigious Royal Chefs, there were a lot of different types of cages and cupcakes, there were even pancakes recently made, which I could cover in sweet fruits of the forest and caramel syrup, countless of different colored pieces of bread, Tomato Bread, Spinach Bread, Fruit Bread, and so on and on.
And for the heavy eaters that enjoy several pounds of meat in the morning, there was also grilled Thunderstorm Phoenix, Gemstone Wyvern, Hydras, and more, with a few new additions from the monsters that live around Athetosea, these being Dark Mammoth, Fire Cockatrice, and more.
Now that I've devoured all of the Knights and Champions, who's corpses managed to remain mostly intact, I decided to open some of the Reward Prizes that I obtained after completing the "Scripted Event" of the Athetosea Great War.
There is also the possibility of opening the Relics I have accumulated, but I want to leave this for another day. Before opening anything, I inspected a peculiar item I obtained, which was named [Premium Dungeon Core].
It had the same size as the previous Dungeon Core I used to take over the Bloody Sacrifice Dungeon, it was a spherical mass of a steel-like composition. It was covered in a golden luster, differentiating it from the previous one, due to my curiosity, I inspected the item using [Appraisal].
[Premium Dungeon Core (S): A special Item that can be only crafted by a [###### ########], its powers are limitless and posses the capabilities to alter the [######] and create its own [#######].
Grants special benefits when creating a Dungeon, extra Dungeon EXP gained, stronger monsters, easier monster diversification, increased rate of [###### ######] gained, and more random items generated.
The power of the monsters in the dungeon are highly dependent on the user [########] or its [Blessing].
[Usage Method: Place in the first or last dungeon floor, if a dungeon already possesses a Dungeon Core of its own, its usage will fail, and the Dungeon Core may be destroyed] [Only One Use].
Before doing anything, I tried to eat this Dungeon Core, but I felt as if I was eating something indestructible, something that has never actually happened to me outside of trying to eat Legendary items.
[Kireina] cannot use [Devour] to consume a [###### ####]
[If [Kireina] further tries to use [Devour] to consume [Premium Dungeon Core (S)], it may result in a heavy backlash]
"Sigh… Alright, I won't try anymore, relax, system… Wait… [Devour]?"
My split minds wanted me to ask the system some questions as if I were talking with someone.
I decided to move to a place where I was alone as I loudly talked with the system.
"System, what is it [Devour]?"
"…"
"Told you guys, it won't wo-"
Ding!
[Devour], a special [Ability] tied to the [Sin] of [Gluttony]
"A-Ah?! Gluttony?! But I don't have that sin, then how?"
[Devour], has been altered by the [System Master: #######] into its [Blessing]
"S-So that's how it is! Now… Who is the System Master?"
[System Master: #######] is the ####### and, ####### ###, therefore ########]
"Just as I thought, I can't understand anything…"
I tried to abuse the system a little bit more while asking about different Realms, Kingdoms, Races and Dungeons, however, it barely answered some very vaguely, so I can't just use it as a universal encyclopedia, sadly.
Being a little bit frustrated, I decided to open the two [Commemorative Reward Prize Loot Box (Random) (A)], it seems that most of my servants and wives had already opened them, obtaining very rare and unique items.
I decided to open both at the same time as the two beautifully decorated gifts shined in bright yellow light, almost blinding my sight.
Flash!

I was quite surprised, I should have checked the item before, I didn't know I would get ten items per loot box! This moment really felt like a game for a moment, with so many items popping out of nowhere.
As I glanced at the new Items that I obtained while saving them inside of my Item Box, some took my attention.
[Enhancement Gemstone (Mythical): A special Gemstone that can be used to instantly enhance a piece of equipment to its next rank, cannot be used in [Mythical+++] items or above. One of the wonderful items created by the [Legendary Hero of Crafting] in the past]
[Repair Gemstone (Mythical): A special Gemstone that can be used to instantly repair any broken equipment, as long as there is a piece left, cannot be used in [Legendary] items or above. One of the wonderful items created by the [Legendary Hero of Crafting] in the past]
[Valiant Totem (Unique+++): A totem that can be connected to the user's soul, whenever the user takes a fatal hit that can endanger its life, this totem will take the damage instead and be destroyed. One of the wonderful items created by the [Legendary Hero of Crafting] in the past]
[All-Curing Tears of Andromeda (Legendary+): A special Antidote made with the tears of the Legendary Titaness, Andromeda. With a broken heart, she cries for eternity, forming a river of her tears. It can heal any disease, wounds, and negative status ailments. It can recover lost limbs and internal organs. The one who drinks this Antidote gains a reinforced body, rivaling Titans]
[Nine Elements Magical Fabric (Legendary): A Divine Fabric sewed by the [Demi-God of Tailors] alongside the [Demi-Goddess of Threads], creating a beautiful fabric composed of nine different colors. Anything crafted with this Fabric will instantly turn into an [Legendary] Equipment. Requires rank [Celestial Grandmaster Tailor] and [Celestial Grandmaster Blacksmith] to use]
[Basin of Never-Ending Spring Water (Mythical++): Basin made by the [God of Spring Water] and the [Demi-Goddess of Never-Ending Rivers], creating a mythical item that can produce an infinite and endless amount of clean Spring Water. Spring Water possess healing and recovering qualities and can satiate the thirst for an entire week]
All the items were rather amazing, and I had the desire to devour them all, but I contained my urges as I feared that it would be for nothing. Since I evolved that it has been very hard to obtain any Skill from devouring an item, needing hundreds of items to finally obtain something. I could drink Andromeda's Tears, but it could also don't give me anything at all, it is better to save them and use them in the future, whenever there is a chance of something terrible happening that I wasn't able to predict.
These two Gemstones will be very useful, but I would like for my workshop team to inspect them more, and maybe do some studies around them, if they aren't [Legendary], then it's possible to replicate them or at least their effects in some way. I can only replicate Equipment with [Greater Equipment Materialization], not Items. So, I have to leave this work to my workshop team.
Whatever Item I can craft using the Nine Colors Fabric will be incredibly good, but sadly, I need to have a very advanced subclass field. I have barely grasped the basics of a Master Smith; it will take a while before I can become a Celestial Grandmaster Blacksmith.
The Basin will be overall very useful, I can use it to have a limitless amount of water now, no need to take from the River or generate it with magic, wasting time and effort. I decided to construct a massive spring in the middle of my Kingdom where this basin will go.
When I saved up all these items, I decided to open the next reward prizes, the five [Athetosea Great War Spoils Gift (A)], this gift box wasn't a loot box, so only one item was given after opening them, nonetheless, because they were five gifts, five items were obtained.
[Kireina] received the following Items]
[Golden Obsidian Coat (Mythical+++)] x1
[Premium Dungeon Gacha Ticket (B-S) x5] x1
[Premium Dungeon EXP Elixir (Mythical+++)] x1 contemporary romance
[Premium Gold and Gemstone Chest (Unique+)] x1

"M-More gacha… I will really have to pull more of these? Well, it's still quite interesting…"
Dungeon Gacha monsters have always been a mystery to me, they seem to have very developed intelligence, similar to Summoned Spirits. I wonder if the two are related somehow? If the things that Brontes had told me are true, then maybe every summoned creature there is actually a reincarnated soul…
Why do they need to reincarnate souls for such things? Whoever controls the System, can't it create a new soul? All of this mystery is really off-putting to me… To think that my dear Brontes was once someone else with her own life, that was taken by her and forcefully reincarnated as a spirit… And perhaps, even Rimuru? Sigh…
Just when I started to think in both Rimuru and Brontes as if they felt my concern, they quickly found me in the room I was opening my reward prizes.
"Ah! Masta! I found you, guu!"
"Big sis, what are you doing alone in here?"
"Ah…! I was just opening some of the reward prizes"
Rimuru approached the pile of items as she inspected each one with her shin rainbow eyes.
"Oooh! There is even a gacha ticket, Zehe will like this one! She didn't get any gacha ticket from her prizes, guu"
Brontes nodded.
"Big sister, I can feel you have some uneasiness, is something wrong?"
"Guu? Masta?"
Over the concern of the two, I couldn't help but feel my heart warming up. Sudden energy engulfed my body as I felt even more confident in protecting them.
"Aaah… You two are really precious… I'm fine, don't worry"
"P-Precious, guu?! M-Masta… Don't say such embarrassing things, guu…"
"Hmh… It's embarrassing…"
I suddenly embraced the adorable pair as I gave both a kiss in their cheeks.
"Let's go around town with the family"
As if in unison, Brontes and Rimuru nodded at the same time with cute smiles.
"Alright, I really want to try some new restaurant, guu!"
"Hmmh, I want to buy new clothes…"
"Let's go then"
It seems that both of them have been acting quite spoiled recently, most likely because I am giving them more attention than the rest because of their pregnancy. Well it's not like I don't like to spoil them myself.
