I clearly wasn't able to satisfy myself with a measly piece of meat! …So Kireina quickly brought more for us to enjoy.

It was good. Very good. The salty flavors were not too oppressive, the nice scent of grilled meat-filled your nostrils with the warmth of the recently grilled piece of steak. The refreshing juices spread the flavors through my mouth and my tongue couldn't help but dance in joy with each bite.

In the end, we ended having a little feast while Kireina brought some mashed potatoes, vegetables, and wine for us to enjoy everything better. She loved to serve me a lot, she really was like the ideal traditional wife…

"Phew… This wine goes stupendous with the meat," I said.

"It does, isn't it? I told you it was a good idea to take the wine bottles from the supermarket!" said Kireina while winking at me cutely. magic

"I wasn't so fond of wine, to be honest, but you've opened my mind over it," I chuckled.

After we ate our fill, I decided to open the treasure chest which Kireina's delicious grilled meat interrupted me from opening.

The Treasure Chest shined with a bright crimson red glow and had shown up when the Boss died, it was also a C-Rank++ Treasure Chest!

The last time I opened one, a lot of items were given generously, so I expect the same for now.

I slowly open it, as the contents inside are revealed to me, shining brightly with golden and scarlet lights.

The first thing I see is a pile of gold and jewels, and then, three items sitting over it. One of them was what seemed to be a crown. Yes, a crown made of crimson jewels and decorated with crimson and chitinous metal.

The second item was a red bracelet with a crimson jewel over it, shining brightly with a fiery aura.

The third item was what seemed to be a green-colored ticket showing an EXP sign on it.

And lastly, there was this… vial, a vial made of crystal which was sealed with a gold, containing a rainbow liquid inside that shined with colorful brilliance.

The items were [Scarlet Queen's Crown (C-Rank)], [Scarlet Bracelet of Fire Spirits (C-Rank)], [EXP Daily Dungeon Entrance Ticket: Intermediate Difficulty (C-Rank+)], and the [Rainbow Elixir (C-Rank+++)]!

Additionally, two Orbs were sitting over the pile of gold too, which I quickly grabbed alongside the gold, absorbing it all into my Status, which quickly showed the numbers increase, my Gold has reached over 100k already!

And I didn't know there were Orbs inside Treasure Chests! Though only two is very little, that doesn't help in anything…

All of the items I got were very useful though.

[Scarlet Queen's Crown (C-Rank)]

An item that can be used with any Flesh Bug Monster to force evolution into a Queen Class, giving them the ability to freely control other lesser beings of their type, while also having the ability to lay eggs that can produce them. (EXP cannot be acquired by slaying such beasts)

[Scarlet Bracelet of Fire Spirits (C-Rank)]

An Accessory that can be equipped to acquire the power to call upon a young Fire Spirit, Salamander, and request its help in exchange for Mana.

[EXP Daily Dungeon Entrance Ticket: Intermediate Difficulty (C-Rank+)]

A ticket that can be used to access the EXP Daily Dungeon in Intermediate Difficulty, giving you the ability to enter three times peruse.

[Rainbow Elixir (C-Rank+++)]

An exquisite concoction crafted with the residual liquid essence of a Goddess of Life, it can be drunk to regenerate any wound or lost limb, while also regenerating 50% of Mana and Vitality and healing any type of abnormal condition once. …

Yeah, they're godly, and that EXP Dungeon ticket is… just what I needed! With that, we can level up even faster now.

This Crown should be used in my Scarlet Spider Monster, so I quickly went out of the house and called her.

She came rushing towards me while growling playfully, it was eating a large pile of bugs a few minutes ago.

"There, there, now, here, have this crown," I said. Putting the crown over the beast's head, as it quickly took effect! It was pretty fantastical and magical, and straight out of a game.

FLASH!

Suddenly, the item fused with her head and became part of her exoskeleton, while her body grew another meter, and the Scarlet Spider seemed even fiercer.

Ding!

[Evolution Successful, [Giant Scarlet Armored Poisonous Spider Tyrant (C-Grade)] has evolved into the [Giant Scarlet Armored Poisonous Spider Tyrant Queen (C-Grade+)]!]

"GRYAR!"

The Spider Queen pridefully roared as if she felt more special now, and then I decided to order her to lay some eggs.

She immediately began to produce them inside of her body, and she laid them one by one!

Like the Queen Bee, she was able to produce offspring as if it were a weapon, and just after a few seconds, five eggs popped up and five scarlet spiders emerged from them!

However, her Mana was almost depleted, so I feed her with mine before she was to pass out due to Mana Sickness. Something that any Mana using being could be undergone if their Mana were suddenly depleted.

The Scarlet Spider Queen kept laying eggs, were more little spiders popped up, but it seemed that she might have a limit of ten for now, although it seemed that this limit was depending on her power over the little spiders.

I had tried to tame them, but it was not possible, they seemed to be an extension of her own, and they lacked souls too. It was strange, but it seemed that similarly to the Queen Bee, these monsters are controlled by the Queen's soul. Unless we find real monsters that she can dominate, she'll be with these ten until she can evolve again or become strong enough to be able to control more.

After that, I saved the Elixir in my Inventory for the time being and asked Anna to upgrade my equipment with the new materials, while fusing the new bracelet with my ring to make a new fused accessory.

And as she did this, I decided to change Jobs.
