After instructing Zehe for around two hours, I was finally able to resume my work. I left her making more ingots while leaving some of Lostreamʼs ingots as a reference.

Everyone was working hard in their own projects and jobs, it really made me feel somewhat proud. I wonder what does Zehe wants to make.

I sat on my workshop as I began to gather the materials and my hammer, alongside this, I activated my aura which was very helpful while forging, as it helped me mold the materials at my will making the hammer only a tool to define most details. I made sure to infuse my own magic as well as my Soul Energy, to make them obtain my blessing afterward.

I decided to first craft my bracelet accessory, I grabbed the original bracelet [Golden Bracelet of Royal Heirloom] and decided to use the rough bracelet that my beloved daughter Vudia made me yesterday, the [Treasury Golden Lucky Bracelet].

Because both bracelets were made of gold materials, they went together quite fine. I used a different technique that combined both Synthesis and Forgery. Combining both items while also infusing other materials into the item and meticulously forge them all together with my Aura and my hammer.

The pure golden color wouldnʼt go well with the rest of the setʼs color, so I infused my aura into the materials and slightly changed their colors into a golden purple, although I left some parts in pure golden color so Vudia could recognize her work in there. I wanted to add more things as I felt it deserved it, so I added plenty of different gemstones as well, most of them being of purple and dark colors to add to the ”aesthetic”.

As I finally finished the item after some hours, I let it aside and immediately began on the next one, seeing that it was getting quite late and I was already used to sleep with my wives a little bit early, I didnʼt want them to miss me.

Next on the line was the [Shadow Heart Ring], a ring that I had already synthesized, itʼs the combination of an old ring which name I forgot and the Heart Ring that let me teleport to Adelleʼs location, it still has those functions and sometimes I travel towards Aquaria using it.

Because even as a synthesized item, it was still quite underwhelming, I decided to add on plenty of materials to reinforce its strength, durability, and the power it could give me. Even as a ring it can still add plenty of stats if there are enough magic circuits, gems, and enhancements.

I gently added different magic circuits using my own threads, which I infused with different types of ingots. I can produce a thread made of the ingots that I can digest with my hand; however, the thread wonʼt be endless as it will only produce the same mass than the ingot.

Nonetheless, this technique was incredibly useful and only those capable of consuming items with their bodies and produce thread at the same time would able to do this, which is only me and maybe Rimuru, although Iʼve never seen her producing threads. My other wives havenʼt gained the same capabilities as myself when I assimilated all of those Blood Monsters and Slimes. Although it would have been ideal if they could make their own clones and spies everything would be even safer.

Afterward, I added small gemstones and cores of different monsters and familiars. Because some were just too big, I ate them and molded them inside of my body until they were small enough. Inducing my own magic and Soul Energy into them, I slowly implanted each gem and core in the ring, while sticking it with my Flesh and Slime Minions, that ended up becoming part of the materials used in the item.

Finishing up by adding my intention and imagining the item appearance in detail, I infused my soul and aura into the item as it slightly changed its appearance, just like the bracelet before and all of the other items. A powerful aura suddenly began to exude from the ring as a big chunk of my soul was taken in exchange. I quickly appraised both items to see the results of my work.

After seeing the stats of all my equipment, I couldnʼt help but release a satisfied sigh. These accessories were incredible and possessed skills that even I didnʼt see coming. I wondered if my naming abilities were also capable of changing the nature of the items completely. As whenever I put my intention, Magic, and Soul Energy into them, they would slightly change their appearance alongside joining the item set and obtaining a new name.

If this could be true, the possibilities were even more endless than I thought, I could even name weapons and armors after certain things or legendary weapons from Earth, and possibly give them such attributes.

For example, what if I forge a simple long sword and use my intent, magic, and soul to name it [Dragon Slayer] or [Armor Piercer], would it give these swords such benefits?

Would they change their appearance to fit what I had in mind? Perhaps… Even something like the Legendary Excalibur wielded by King Arthur or even Merlinʼs Staff would be possible with this type of power. The power of my Sin and the title of Realm Menace brought more benefits than the eye can see…

Seeing that the only left in the workshop was once again Charlotte and a few hard workers rookies, I approached my wife and took a peek from what she was crafting. She had suddenly reinforced her new giant magic gun, but instead of just working on this today, she also dedicated herself to replicate potions and improve in the recipes for Rainbow Elixir prototypes alongside potions using my Blood.

In the end, it seems that my blood is a very good ingredient to make potions, so I donated some barrels of my blood some days ago. My blood has incredible properties and cannot rot either, and if giving a command by me, it will turn into a slime as well and gain consciousness.

There was already a [Blood Elixir] prototype, which had a slight crimson color with a rainbow luster into it. Its smell was surprisingly sweet, and when I drank it, I detected more healing power than my raw blood.

”Oh, you noticed, Master? I have managed to drive out the potential in your blood, using different types of herbs and chemicals… Alongside plenty of magic, however, its full potential is still locked. I also discovered that if you boil the blood, it will become a deliciously sweet jelly after letting it cool out…”

”J-Jelly? H-Have you been eating that Charlotte?”

”Thatʼs right!”

Charlotte suddenly revealed a small plate with a semi-transparent pink Jelly, every time it was impacted by Light, it would shine in different colors.

”I-I never thought that my blood would be used as a food product like this…”

”Indeed! I have even made different types of sauces, your blood is just too varied, Master~! Your Blood Fruits are delicious as well and contain lots of calories and nutrients”

”Charlotte, are you not really a Vampire?”

”Eh? N-No I am not…”

I approached Charlotte as I patted her head.

”You donʼt have to eat my blood, there is the whole dining room to ask whatever you want, you can even order a Maid to bring you food, donʼt lock yourself here for so long. Letʼs go eat something more fulfilling”

Over my embrace, Charlotte was blushing intensively, even her small ears were painted red.

”O-Oh… I-I guess…”

I led Charlotte through the castle as we encountered with my family in the dining room, the atmosphere was lively and a lot of the Royal Knights and their friends were inside as well. There were various bards around and a small party started out of nowhere. I asked for more beer from different types and said that it was in the house, making everyone cheer in excitement over the free beverages and food.

Everyone ate to their heartʼs content and I saw a lot of my servants having a nice time. I even saw Amiphossia with Evan once again, my daughter seemed to want to dance but Evan didnʼt have any talent in such a thing so she just dragged him around.

I even saw Ryo talking with an attractive and muscular Half-Wind Lord girl, if I remember correctly, she is named Arasa and was blessed by the Demi-God of Calming Winds. She had pale gray skin and long emerald hair and eyes, she had a very beautiful smile, small and pointed nose and pointed ears, and small fangs coming from her lower jaw, giving her a more wild but cute look.

She seems strong and talented, so I approve of her relationship with my son! Even more, if my son is trying to win her over it means that heʼs slowly losing his fear against women!

Both of them talked a lot and Arase patted my sonʼs shoulders several times as she drank beer at his side. He was trying his best to act natural as well while drinking beer, but I could sense it! I could see how his heart was going ”Doki, Doki”!

He even released a slight blush on his fair and handsome face from time to time, he really liked her! You can do it, my son! Do it just as mommy does, overpower her in bed, and gain her over!

I took a peek on my other children to see anything similar. Valentia was talking with her group of ”rough” friends, which is mostly made of strong Ogres and Trolls that she calls her ”pack”. She likes to spar with them and go into hunting adventures. I could see a lot of those guys looking at Valentia with different eyes, but she is so strong and intimidating that it must be hard for them to approach her in such a way, making them always be in a passive state around her.

Surprisingly Aarae was quite popular with girls, perhaps because of his cute appearance, although he is very shy with anyone except me and Gaby, so he didnʼt talk much. He was being surrounded by a group of cute Merfolk and Human girls mostly. There were cute Mermaid, Tritonian, Scylla, and more.

There were a lot of cute possible romance partners, but he didnʼt seem to correspond to their feelings. Nonetheless, they still followed my adorable son around, so he had a pseudo harem of big sisters. Hmm, Iʼm quite jealous.

Hmm… I think Iʼm getting slightly drunk again… I better go to bed…
