CH.232 Handing out Rewards
In the morning, I woke up like I usually do. To the sounds of Ria changing clothes. Sure it might be a questionable alarm clock, but it works, so what are you going to do?
The difference this ti was that Lua had also woken up, so instead of just , we both went to the factory together. Lua may or may not have ‘stolen’ my hand and placed it against her cheek before we did though. Not that I mind.
“... so, why did you co here?” Lua asked.
“Why not? I try to do it every morning and evening. It’s just a habit.” I answered. “But I do actually have sothing today. I need to do a few tests. Actually, we should start looking at your dress as well. You now know what my suit looks like, so if you want, we can try to co up with sothing that will match.”
“Yes. Let’s.” Lua agreed.
“But I do actually have so stuff I need to try.” I said to bring us, well mostly myself, back on track.
“Alright. What is it?”
“Just so test. I’ll show you.” I said, as I began to make a new test area, like the one I made last ti.
As I was setting up the test area, Tahlia ‘teleported’ next to us. Yeah, I say ‘teleported’ as it technically isn’t teleportation, just destroying your avatar, and making a new one sowhere else. She was in her dark blue dress, in case you were wondering. I guess she still refuses to wear her pink onesie when she is in the ‘public’ areas of the factory.
“Father, Lua, good morning.” Tahlia greeted us.
“Good morning Tia.” Lua said to her. “It’s good to see you. It has been a few days…”
As the girls made smalltalk, I kept working. After I made the armor stands, I made factory copies of Ria’s new and upgraded armor. By the way, it currently looks like this.
Armored Crimson Boa Jacket - Blood Iron tal Inserts
[Defense 200]
[Fire Resistance - 50% damage reduced]
[Lightened - 40% weight reduced]
[Physical Attack Resistance - 10% damage reduced]
[Toughness - 20% durability increase]
[Blood Repair]
[Vampire Armor]
[Durability 2400/2400]
Description: A leather jacket made from Crimson Boa hide. Because of the hide used, it is naturally fire resistant. It has thin blood iron plates inserted all over, to make it more defensive. The blood iron likes to drink blood, and by feeding it blood, the armor will self repair. The armor favors those that drink blood, and will defend them more than others. It has been enchanted to make it lighter, to increase its resistance to physical attacks and to improve its durability.
I don’t know how, but apparently my monsters were able to make it quite a bit better. It is basically better in every way, compared to the bronze version, even with the Lunatite install. Sure the Lunatite variant had the magic resistance, but this one has physical attack resistance. And yeah, 10% might not be that much, but it is still nice.
But back to what I was doing. I made three copies of Ria’s jacket, and lined them up next to each other. I learned last ti that one success could be a fluke, so I think three tests will be the minimum for . And I feel like Laura would laugh at if she heard that, saying sothing like “Three? It takes at least a hundred to make sure.”
“Brian, is that..?” Lua asked.
“It’s Ria’s armor.” I answered. “Well, a copy of it, actually.”
“... I see. What will you do with it?”
“Just a sec. I’ll get the cards out.” I said as I dug my collection for three copies of tallizing Parasite - Lunatite. Then I gave one for Lua to read. “Here. Take a look.”

And because Lua was here, we tested out if Violet Crystal could be installed into a dhampir. It worked, but it was far from perfect. It is designed for ‘zombie’ or ‘undead’ type monsters, while dhampirs are perfectly alive. Sure they have so undead tendencies, but they are more like half-undead. Or probably quarter undead. So while it could be done, other, more generic cards made for better installs.
Next was a group of monsters I wasn’t so sure about. I know the invitation was open for all of my monsters, but for so reason, I didn’t expect these guys to do anything.
Archfiends Darkbishop, Infernalqueen and Terrorking. Those three were responsible for the Physical Attack Resistance enchantnt on Ria’s armor, so by the rules, they needed sothing. … I just … really didn’t expect my Archfiends to do anything, so I was a bit taken back.
The Darkbishop got himself a Dark Energy, the Infernalqueen got Falling Down and the Terrorking was now wielding an Axe of Despair.

… I really hope I won’t regret this.
Out of my spellcasters, Dark Sage was the one that put in the most work, so he was the one getting a reward. He already has a Book of Secret Arts, so instead I gave him Diffusion Wave-Motion. I don’t know how good that will be for him, but I hope it will suffice.

Then was the ti for the ‘care squad’. Aka. the monsters that took care of Ria. Cure rmaid, Dancing Fairy, Spirit of the Breeze and White Magician Pikeru. They all got the sa reward, an install of Soul of the Pure. This further increased their healing abilities, making them even better for next ti.

“... maybe that could be installed into …” I heard Lua mutter, as I was installing the cards.
“Sure.” I told her. “But I think we should wait until after the birthday party, and let Mia and Laura run experints with it first.”
As for the water monsters that worked with them, they all got either Steel Shell, or Power of Kaishin depending on their type and preference. And type. Can’t give Power of Kaishin to anything that isn’t aqua-type afterall.

Last, but not least, was Tyrant Dragon. His blood was used for the blood iron, and because of that, he had to die a few tis when the blood was gathered. Sure, Laura did resurrect him with Monster Reborn every ti, but dying cannot be fun. As a price for that, he got a Dragon Treasure, as well as the right to pick any of the Mountain peaks in the tower room for himself. And if anyone tried to claim that he has no right, I would set them straight.

I do feel a bit bad. Not because of what I did, I think that is perfectly fine, but because Tyrant Dragon ended up taking the largest mountain top in the room from Blue-Eyes. And I would never sacrifice a Blue-Eyes for its blood, so Blue-Eyes really didn’t have a choice. I’d like to just give Blue-Eyes its own Dragon Treasure and let the two fight it out for control of the mountain top. But that would be blatant favoritism, and that honestly might do more bad than good. I already show massive favoritism to monsters that I summon to outside the factory, so I’ll try to keep a more objective look here.
But with all of my monsters rewarded, and the second test of Lunatite done, we could return to the real world and get ready for the day. Sadly, because of how much ti both the Lunatite experints and the rewarding took, we couldn’t look into making a dress. Well, we do still have a day or two, and if we do really run out of ti, I think we can just use Vampire Fascinators dress basically just as it is. Or even the black dress Lua made by accident. I think either should work.
