[3rd POV]
A few days had passed since she had completed the dungeon and ascended into a higher level of power and intellect, and a few things had happened. For one, Talia had begun the production and forging of some new armors and weapons for the girls, ones made out of the most powerful mineral she had at the moment, Adamantium.
Talia found that she could indeed mimic and recreate the metal, but it took a lot of time, and a lot of energy. Thankfully clones were a thing, so it didn't take long for her to create a few pounds of the metal. But she would need a lot more than that, so she created around 500 clones solely dedicated to creating Adamantium.
Proto Adamantium on the other hand, was not something she could recreate, the metal was...very unique, even to her standards. And it was made of a combination of adamantium and another metal that she didn't know of. One that made it impossible to recreate, even with magic or the scientific knowledge she has up to that point.
The weapons would be done soon enough, with the armor coming afterwards, as creating armor with such a metal was a lot more complicated and time consuming than just making a weapon. She ended up deciding on a sword for Clary, a whip that can turn into a spear for Isabelle, gauntlets for Kara, and a shorter sword for Hope. Each of them were created through her new concept, and were imbued with all sorts of runes and inscriptions, making them far stronger than normal.
She had also started production of some new serums for Clary, Hope, and Isabelle. Each of them were modeled after the super soldier serum from Marvel, but much stronger, and not even remotely as dangerous or painful. She wants to make something that could let them throw punches on par with a super powered being like a Daxamite. Enough to let them actually have a chance against some of the future foes that will be appearing in the coming months and years.
Said serums were all being worked on at a constant pace by the clones, and were only taking so long due to the amount of power she planned on giving them, and the fact that she wanted it to be as safe as she possibly could make it. Had she just wanted something like the Super Soldier Serum, then it would have been completed within a day or so. Although she did plan on making something like that for Alex, mostly so Kara wouldn't have to worry so much about her and her safety.
The suit that Alex had was good, but Talia had started to make a better version, one made not out of Adamantium, but another durable metal that she had found in her Gate of Babylon. She planned on making something that was durable enough to take some punches from even Kara (without using her devil fruit).
She would even be working on something for J'onn, once the time came for it. The man was plenty strong at the moment, and his shapeshifting made making anything durable and malleable enough for him to use, a bit difficult. She was looking into Unstable Molecules from Marvel, and perhaps finding a way of meshing it with a powerful metal.
Besides developing and creating new weapons and armors, she had also been focusing closely on developing her company some more. She had recently released the GPU, CPU, and Motherboard to the public, and as she had expected, she had almost instantly sold out around the world, making her hundreds of millions in only a couple of days. And everytime she had restocked them, they sold out instantly again, all for four days straight.
From making so much money off of the various products, and her company absolutely blowing up rapidly, she had completed a few quests. Enough to give her a decent amount of levels, over 100 of them in fact.

She had decided against claiming the levels just yet, and instead decided to just save the 130 levels for a while, as she had enough leveling for the next week or so. That and she wanted to get used to her new level of power before getting any more. The new mutant and metahuman powers needed some proper usage and training before getting anymore, and that wasn't even talking about the Jujutsu crap she had gotten.
With her company growing at such a rapid pace, she had started to get offers from the Government regarding funding, and creating technology specifically for them, and in return she'd get paid a shit load of money. She had denied this, as she knew this technology would include weapons and other crap that would almost certainly use it for something that was against her morals, like in some mass War or something else. Or even against "Solaris" and Supergirl, none of which she was going to allow to happen.
She had created a few devices for the DEO, but they were all closely under watch by Alex and J'onn, and were both giving them only to the most trusted agents in the DEO that would use them properly, and not for their own means, like a majority of the Government would.
Most of the devices were for stunning aliens and those with stronger durability to shock. None of them had failed so far, so she expected the DEO to regularly commission more of them, especially once the Daxamites start making an appearance, as the shock guns she created worked on even them. But they would not work on designated individuals, like Kara and herself.
Besides that, she had kept a close eye on the movements of Cadmus, destroying bases whenever she could, and taking various interesting pieces of technology from them, most of which being alien in nature with all sorts of different uses, but a tendency to be...destructive.
But the main reason she kept an eye on them was to make sure they didn't do anything against Kara. As while Kryptonite and Red Sun Radiation couldn't do anything against her anymore, other weapons could, albeit with a lot more difficulty, especially with her devil fruit helping her.
She, over this time, had also recruited a lot more people for her dimension. Making her total size jump from 12,000 to over 25,000. All done within a couple of days, her clones working in "Overtime" to go and save people around the world, a lot of them being children in need, like orphans and homeless children. Each of them were given a home and an adult that would look over them, with the city growing larger and larger as the dungeon monsters began to make it their home.
Her familiars that were devils, angels, and fallen angels had also started to live in her dimension, running the "Sub Dimensions" that was the Underworld and Heaven. They were also helping the normal denizens, making them stronger than ever before as they taught them.
At the moment, Talia was sitting in her living room, Kara cuddled at her side as they watched a movie and munched on some popcorn, the girls were all out, going shopping and finishing up each of their individual projects that they had been working on for a while now.
The two were cut off from their enjoyment of the movie, as the elevator dinged, someone walking out of it.
Turning, Kara blinked in surprise as she spoke "Alex? What're you doing here?"
Alex, at the question, breathed in deeply before replying, as she resolved herself to tell her sister and friend about something she had recently realized about herself.
"I have something to tell you...both of you, and it's...important" Alex said, as she moved closer, Kara sitting up at the response as her sister sat down. All the while, Talia looked at her with a soft smile, knowing what this was about, as she had one thought on her mind.
'Let's hope Maggie doesn't break her heart again...otherwise... there'll be hell to pay'

That's the end of the chapter!
Not sure how well this was written, as it was basically just an intermission chapter. Next chapter will have some talks with Alex, and a bit more.
Anyways, have a good day!
