[3rd POV] [1 Week later]
Time had continued on by, and it had officially been one week since they began their dungeon adventures. With quite a bit happening in that one week.
The girls had continued to grow and improve, rapidly growing their stats and becoming more and more used to working together. They had all gotten their stats to at least C in all their stats, with Hope being the farthest along, already having her magic at A. This was almost entirely due to her skill massively boosting her growth level.
The trio had gotten all the way down to floor 13, where they were beginning to have more and more trouble with the monsters. Not enough to be truly dangerous, but enough that they had gotten some scrapes and bruises.
These scrapes and bruises didn't last long though, due to their own regeneration, and Talia's new class. Her food was...very very very strong. As in, it doubled their regeneration of magic, health, stamina, etc from a simple dish. And her most complicated dishes, boosted their magic or strength by 2x, all at level 3. These same boosts applied to her, making the class an absolute godsend, and quite the overpowered thing.
They had also made a decent chunk of Valis, but not even remotely as much as Talia had made in her short while. None of the monster drops they had gotten so far, have been particularly the most helpful. So, most of them had just been sold off for some valis.
They hadn't developed any new skills just yet, but Talia knew it was only a matter of time. As long as they kept annihilating monsters, they'd get one. As most skills were developed through repeating a process, like killing monsters, running away, and similar processes.
During this time, Talia hadn't been passive.
After her initial exploration of the first 40 floors, she began to go deeper and deeper. Finding plenty of useful resources, be it plants, ores, monster parts, and other minerals that would sell for a ton, or would be useful in the future.
After an entire week, she had went from Floor 40, all the way to floor 75. Once she had gotten passed floor 50, her weaker familiars had begun to experience troubles with the monsters, as they were far too strong for a low level one to handle. So, her middle rank and high ranking ones began to take care of them more and more. From these monsters, she had even gotten some more age absorbed, albeit very little.
Thanks to this exploration, she ended up leveling from level 114 to level 135, and level 3 to level 25. This was thanks to the levels from her quest, and killing dungeon monsters which counted towards her levels. Thanks to getting to level 25, she ended up getting another chef in the form of: Joichiro Yukihira.
She had also went back into her own vampire dungeon, continuing her mass extermination of high level vampires. Killing an turning another 225 vampires, for a total of 250, halfway to her goal of 500. Each addition of a high level vampire into her growing familiar army, made her stronger and stronger.
Thanks to this, she ended up completing a hidden quest. One that was quite easy, and gave a good reward as well.
[Hidden Quest Complete]
High Level Familiars!
Details - Turn 250 High level vampires into your familiars.
Rewards - 15 levels
This increased her level even more to level 150 and 40. She expected to have her classes maxed out within a couple of weeks, as her leveling process was rapidly growing, due to her combined exploration of the Orario dungeon, the Vampire dungeon, and her girls exploring the dungeon as well.
Besides exploring the dungeon during this week, Talia had also went on a few dates with the girls, mainly to different areas in Orario, and some cool shops of note, growing closer and closer to each of them. Monster feria being one of those unique events. Which the group had enjoyed, while keeping out of Bell's little adventure and fight with the Silverback, a monster used during monster feria as a sort of combatant within an arena. Nothing Talia was interested in involving herself in.
The entirety of Bell's adventure was uninteresting to her, as she was solely focused on the development of herself and her mates. She could care less about the story of Danmachi. It was simply a training spot for the girls and herself, and nothing more.
Besides the dates, dungeon exploration, and leveling, Talia had also been training in some other areas.
Her training in the force had massively improved, as she got farther and farther in her training, developing her connection to the force more and more. She planned on starting to test the darker side of the force soon, most notably, force drain. As she knew it had an absolute monstrous amount of potential for the future, especially in regards to future universes.
But for now, she was focusing on developing her connection to it, her telekinetic abilities, and the strengthening affects it had on her physiology. She hoped to get some more holocrons to improve her lightsaber combat, and force ability knowledge, but for now, she was forced to work with what she had.
She had also begun to test the Mind Stone, messing around with it. As she realized it had some serious potential in a world like this one, with the knowledge she could obtain. Her mind was constantly improving thanks to it, but she hadn't really used it much since she got it.
So, she began to test it's telepathy and mind reading functions. Mostly in regards to normal adventurers. It had worked so far, and she had used it to get some knowledge on the Danmachi magic from a few magic users. She planned on testing it's knowledge ability, but not just yet. As pulling on the very knowledge of the universe would be...draining.
She had also begun to mess around with the sword of Gryffindor, after realizing that it could absorb the affects of potions, poisons, and whatever would strengthen itself. Knowing this, she began to take advantage of it. First, she had gotten into contact with Loki in regards to various poisons, and potions that can cause harm to others. Then, she had the sword absorb them.
Through this, her sword was now more than likely, the most dangerous object on the planet, or one of them. With hundreds of poisons, several viruses, plenty of sleep/paralytic potions, and various other liquids that could strengthen it, imbued into it. Just a single cut from it, would kill anyone that Talia wanted, as long as they didn't have an immunity to poisons, and it had enough time to take affect. As it still took a few seconds to take affect.
Thus, she got a new artifact that was insanely overpowered for her dungeon explorations, as she could still use it within the dungeon itself. Making it a cheat item against the vampires.
All in all, she had one of the most productive weeks in a long long time.

Currently, Talia was sitting across from a cloaked Loki, a look of intrigue on her face.
"So, what'd you want to talk about, Loki?" Talia asked, looking at the Goddess in interest.
"I want to commission something from you. I know you're a magic user, and your girlfriends spoke of how you can make objects. I want you to make something for Ais" Loki said, looking Talia in the eye.
Talia raised an eyebrow at the question, as a small smirk formed on her face, as an idea came to mind. Slowly she spoke, as she began to decide on a price for whatever it was Loki wanted.
"Oh? Tell me more"

That's the end of the chapter!
Not sure how good this chapter was tbh. As I said before, I'm sort of struggling with Danmachi lol.
I plan on this arc being shorter than I initially wanted, as in, like 10-20 more chapters short.
The next world is more than likely going to be Arrowverse, with Doctor Who coming after that. But idk, I'm still deciding.
Next chapter will have their talks, some more stuff happening, and potentially more dungeon exploration.
I skipped most of the dungeon exploration, as it would have been...boring to be honest. There isn't much of anything in the Orario dungeon until the last floor, while the Vampire dungeon is boring as well, until the Supreme vampires and beyond.
Anyways, have a good day, see you tomorrow!
