As we were about to finish our meals, I checked my Status, seeing the level up progress of my Familiars as well, while I was at it.

[The rest of your Egos and Summons have acquired a large sum of EXP]

[Bubu] Level has increased to Level 56!]

[Colora] Level has increased to Level 55!]

[Shadrach] Level has increased to Level 42!]

[Black] Level has increased to Level 51!]

[White] Level has increased to Level 51!]

[Aquamarine] Level has increased to Level 51!]

[Silva] Level has increased to Level 46!]

[Yggdra] Level has increased to Level 41!]

I see, they're quickly getting closer to their Max Level… Bubu and Colora cap at Level 60, while the Ego Weapons Black, White, and Aquamarine at 70, alongside Shadrach, so they still got a long way to get there. Lastly there's Silva at Level 60 and Yggdra too at Level 60.

Shadrach went from D Rank to B- Rank so of course his level cap increased a lot, his whole evolution is pretty cheat-like. Can't wait to cut down some more monsters with that Katana. Anyways, seeing them all grow up is nice, it feels like I am growing my own little army of evil world eaters.

Though, aren't you guys a bit too many now?! Eight?! Seriously? I've got a whole family now with me… Though they're all competent and useful, with them I always have my back secured. And each one has their own special roles as well, so they usually don't overlap with one another.

Overall, I am quite pleased with my current set up. Now… should I make more Egos? I've got tons of tiny fragments, like a few hundred of them. I also got Invidia's Big Ego, and the last Bosses all got medium-sized Egos imbued with their Elements.

? Maybe I should use them to create Egos for my friends instead of me? I mean I've got tons already! Well yeah, let's just do that. Though not for Frank, this way I can keep blackmailing him with the hope he'll get one. And when we finally depart, I'll give him one. Heh, after all I have to keep him interested in the bait.

"Alright guys, give me your weapons! Armor too, accessories, anything." I said with a smile.

"Wait, it is finally time?" Asked Ariant.

"Really?!" Eriant wondered.

"Wait, what's happening?" Luminous wondered.

"Ohhh! Finally!" Fiere celebrated.

"I don't have much equipment as I am a mage… Can you use it on my dress and boots too?" Brunhild wondered.

"Sure, sure, bring it here. Sol, your armor's pretty good but its not an Ego like your sword, so let me transform it as well." I said.

"Oh, you have my thanks." Sol thanked me.

"Hey! What about me?" Frank asked from the sides.

"Eeeh? I am pretty sure you're overpowered enough!" I said while sighing.

"Huh?! Come on! I've given you all tons of things already! Don't I need some compensation?" Frank smiled cheekily.

"Oi brat you're getting a bit cocky aren't you? I could had just eaten your cosmic stones if I wanted to!" I said.

"But you didn't! You know its convenient to have me at your side." Frank smiled. "You want me to leave or what?"

"Ugh… Okay but only one!" I said. "And I'll choose it."

"S-Sure!" Frank got excited out of nowhere, suddenly grinning with a darker face. "Heh…"

Wait, did he just said "heh"?!

Is he planning to copy it with his stupidly broken System or something?

Should I be worried of this Half-Overseer brat's craftiness?

Ugh… Well, I'll think about it later, for now I'll…

Both of his weapons are too overpowered, but I don't really got an option here.

Like that, I quickly imbued Egos into everyone's weapons and armor equipment, and as for Frank, I gave an Ego to his Demon Sword, Gram. I named it just Gram.

Everyone named their own equipment afterwards. I should had done this earlier now that I think about it, so their weapon and armors could had leveled up some more and become stronger.

Well, whatever, it's done.

"Uoooh! My staff got all shiny now!" Brunhild said in excitement. Her staff was made out of dragon bones and blood stones from the mountains, I had made it myself.

In fact, I was the main crafter of the party too, I picked materials and used them to either repair and enchant their stuff or make them brand new weapons. Fiere's new arrow and bows were made from the Fiery Ants Materials and the Wyverns scales, her light armor and Brunhild's dress was also enhanced using Luminous scales.

The Twins also got armor using his scales, they're the most widely available and the cheapest to get. Of course I could also ask my little Bubu for his scales but there's no way I'm going to make him go through pain for them.

So I just kept stabbing Luminous and tearing apart the scales off his body, heh. He got insane regeneration powers so it's totally fine anyways!

"Woow, my scimitar got so overpowered now! They're imbued with spirits powers?!" Eriant wondered.

"Yeah, mine too! And my dress feels as light as the wind!" Ariant said.

"Sometimes Egos develop and evolve independently. Your equipment was already covered on tons of spiritual energy, so when they evolved into egos, they absorbed this energy and used it for their new forms. Now all your equipment has spiritual elemental blessings, pretty neat, right?" I said. "Brunhild's staff had a lot of her residual mana so it has become even stronger in that department by absorbing that, the same goes for Fiere's weapon and Sol…"

"But why are they not talking?" Sighed Eriant.

"Hey, just be grateful!" Ariant said angrily.

"Nah, its fine. They don't talk because they're not as high Ranked, or lack a special soul." I said. "However… sometimes, the higher ranked ones can talk, and are very loud and annoying at that."

We all glanced at Frank holding his Gram.

"GYAHAHAHAHAHAH! It is nice to be able to talk you damn brat! Oi! Why are you all so silent out of the sudden?! Got a stick up your ass or something?! PPFFHAHAHAHA!"

His sword had become quite the peculiar fellow.
