This time, the harvest was also quite bountiful!

"The moonlight is so beautiful!"

After clearing the battlefield, Miss Moonlit didn't rush to leave. Instead, she walked to a scenic spot and sat down.

Looking up at the moonlight in the sky, she found that compared to the daytime, she still preferred the night. Even though the night was incredibly quiet, she could even hear her own heartbeat.

Even though everything else was asleep, only the sound of the night breeze remained.

The girl sat there quietly, looking at everything illuminated by the moonlight, and still felt there were many beautiful sights she had never seen before.

She lay down on the ground peacefully, not worried about dirtying her clothes or skin, and looked at the moon in the sky.

Speaking of which, she had never seen an aurora before!

It would be even more beautiful to go to the Arctic to admire the aurora someday.

Then, as if thinking of something, Moonlit took out a cup of juice and some snacks and placed them beside her. Holding the juice cup with both hands, she drank quietly, enjoying this peaceful moment.

Compared to her previous life, which was rushed with studying, working...

After coming to this world and becoming Moonlit Wife, life had become much more relaxed, and she liked her current life even more.

As long as she wanted, she could stop and appreciate the easily overlooked beautiful scenery before her.

Moreover, there were still many such days in the future. Vampires were very long-lived creatures, not to mention the chance to transform into other Valkyries and characters.

After quietly admiring the moonlight for a while, Moonlit took out her two spoils of war. Looking at these two Divine Artifacts, she decided not to use them herself.

There were many Divine Artifacts in this world, and she couldn't integrate all of them into her body. That would only burden her, and having too many mixed abilities wasn't ideal either.

To be integrated by Moonlit, it had to be at least a Sacred Gear.

These two Divine Artifacts were not bad, but Sacred Gears possessed similar characteristics to Divine Artifacts, with even more powerful abilities and functions.

This Divine Artifact that created shadow creatures was far inferior to the "Magical Beast Creation" from the Sacred Gears, which could create fantasy magical beasts, and the unknown creatures created by the "Evil Eye King of Time-Space Domination."

"Magical Beast Creation" could create various magical beasts that the holder could imagine, even targeting magical beasts like "Dragons," "Gods," or "Demons."

With enough ability, it was even possible to create magical beasts at the Transcender level.

As for the unknown creatures created by the "Evil Eye King," they could inflict damage that even the "Holy Grail" could not heal.

In comparison, this Divine Artifact was better off sold. She didn't like it! The same applied to Artificial Artifacts. They were originally imitations of Divine Artifacts, with only one or two-tenths of the power of the genuine ones.

"Recycle them all!"

Picking up the two Divine Artifacts, Moonlit sold them to the system.

[Recycle successful, obtained: 1018 Crystals]

[Recycle successful, obtained: 251 Crystals]

The first was the Divine Artifact that created shadows, and the second was an Artificial Artifact...

An Artificial Artifact alone was 251 Crystals, which was indeed quite excellent.

The air was filled with a suffocating, oppressive heat, a tangible weight that pressed down on everything.

It just felt like she was losing out somehow?

Even though these two Divine Artifacts were not as good as Sacred Gears, they were still decent. They could grant someone upper-tier strength, and with a bit of effort, even top-tier strength wasn't impossible. Yet, they only yielded a little over a thousand Crystals.

That's less than 5 Supply Cards...

But she had no choice but to do this. The main mission required Moonlit Oath·Give Love to the Heart to reach at least SS rank, unless she planned to stay in this world forever.

"The Crystals seem to be enough for a hundred consecutive draws, and even a bit more. It's time to improve myself."

In the past two years, Moonlit hadn't stopped doing bounty missions. Although they were mostly below S-rank bounties, the accumulation of small amounts had resulted in a considerable sum.

She had barely used these Crystals, and with the Crystals from recycling the Divine Artifacts, Miss Moonlit's Crystal balance had now reached a very impressive number.

Crystals: 30600.

Just a little over thirty thousand...

When she used to play games, the girl habitually saved up Crystals to around 30,000 before waiting for her favorite banners to appear and draw.

"Should I draw the Expansion Supply first, or the Focused Supply? The character UP banner still requires 90 draws to guarantee an S-rank Moonlit Oath."

Uh, looking at it this way, these Crystals don't seem to be enough!

If she really got the guaranteed one, she could only get a +1 upgrade. In comparison, obtaining exclusive Stigmata first would undoubtedly provide a greater boost.

But the Expansion Supply is a must-draw banner, otherwise, the main mission cannot be completed.

"Forget it, I'll go with Expansion Supply!"

Too lazy to overthink it, she decided to at least get a +1 first.

Entering the Supply interface, she immediately spent 2800 Crystals on the first ten consecutive draws.

The supply box dropped, and I quickly clicked to skip.

A dazzling flash of light, guaranteeing at least one A-rank Divine Prayer Witch, along with some materials and A-rank Valkyrie fragments.

Continuing…

The second ten-pull yielded three A-rank Valkyries: Kallen, Rita, and Lilia

Pressing on, the three thousand crystals I'd painstakingly saved dwindled rapidly, each pull costing 2800 as if I didn't care at all.

It wasn't until the 6th ten-pull that the first S-rank Moonlit Oath finally appeared, transforming into 30 fragments.

"Finally, it's here."

Seventy pulls for a drop, how incredibly stable.

Glancing at the remaining crystals, I knew a second S-rank Moonlit Oath was impossible. It would be better to try my luck with the Stigmata.

Moonlit Oath: Moonlit Oath, S to S1, required 25 fragments. The girl clicked, leaving only 5 of the 30 fragments.

"My strength seems to have increased significantly…"

As her rank rose to S1, Miss Moonlit felt a warm current surge through her body, making her feel even stronger.

She slowly clenched her fist, reveling in the feeling of improved power!

It was a shame she couldn't improve further…

Looking at the remaining crystals, Miss Moonlit decided against continuing with the expansion banner and switched to the focused supply banner.

Chapter 35: Himeko: Sweet Dream

Another ten-pull, another 2800 crystals gone. Compared to the character banner, this one yielded more weapons and Stigmata.

A guaranteed purple five-star greatsword, plus several four-star Stigmata and weapons…

After spending almost all of the remaining 13,800 crystals, a total of 49 pulls, I obtained 5 weapons and 3 Stigmata. Everything else was weapons, Stigmata, and materials below four-star rarity.

Unfortunately, the only Stigmata Miss Moonlit needed was Himeko: Sweet Dream (Top); all the others were off-banner.

Tsk…

Why wasn't she surprised at all.

"That's fine for now!"

Her crystals were almost gone again.

With less than one pull's worth of crystals remaining, her two years of savings were completely depleted. However, she had gained a large number of weapons, Stigmata, and materials…

Looking at the now abundant Gold Coins, advanced skill materials, and Experience Chips, Miss Moonlit used them all.

Miss Moonlit, already level 57, instantly jumped to level 73.

"Why do I feel like the experience needed in reality is much more than in the game…"

Logically, these learning chips should have been enough to max her level, yet she was only barely level 73?

But it didn't matter; it was just experience. She wasn't lacking in that regard. She would eventually reach max level, and it was all just a side effect anyway.

Only the Valkyrie's level was crucial.

Then, regarding the skill materials, Miss Moonlit made a great discovery: the skill materials weren't just for upgrading the character's inherent skills; her newly learned skills could also be rapidly improved using them.

Nine Martial Peaks, with the Seven Wine Orders…

Even skills like languages, music, and art…

Using the skill materials, Miss Moonlit had mastered over a dozen languages and various common skills.

Located in southern Europe.

Miss Moonlit had returned home. It was a three-story villa she had bought a year ago; she had loved it the moment she first saw it.

Not only was the environment beautiful, but the house design also perfectly suited her taste.

Before her transmigration, the girl had always dreamed of her ideal home, and now that dream was somewhat fulfilled.

Although it had cost a lot of money, the immeasurable Gold Coins obtained from the supply boxes, along with the spoils from completing bounties, were enough to grant her complete financial freedom.

"Sister Moonlit, are you done with your business?"

As she entered the house, a young girl's voice rang out. It was the vampire girl, Valerie.

"Mm, I'm done."

The girl replied casually, then lazily reclined on a chair on the villa's balcony, gazing at the small courtyard garden outside. The garden was beautifully manicured.

It was a pleasing sight…

There was also a small outdoor swimming pool, from which one could jump directly from the second floor, making it great fun in the summer.

"Shouldn't Sister Moonlit rest for a few days now?"

Valerie poured a cup of hot milk, walked over to Miss Moonlit, handed it to her, and said with anticipation.

After two years of living together, their relationship had become quite good, considered close friends. However, Miss Moonlit would occasionally go out for many days without taking her or Gasper with her.

"Should I…?"

Miss Moonlit took the milk, her beautiful crimson eyes blinking as she thought of something.

She sized up the Vampire before her. There hadn't been much change in two years. Logically, she had only asked them to follow her temporarily, but two years had flown by in the blink of an eye.

They hadn't mentioned leaving, so Miss Moonlit hadn't said anything either.

There was also the compensation for stripping them of their Divine Artifacts. Since the three of them had been together for these two years, she had intended to give it to them when they decided to leave, so she hadn't compensated them yet.

Thinking about what she had obtained from the previous resupply, it was indeed time for compensation.

A mere initial embrace wasn't enough. With those things as compensation… it wouldn't feel like she had wronged them.

"Valerie, I took your Divine Artifact and Gasper's. Do you resent me?"

"No!"

Valerie was taken aback, not understanding why Miss Moonlit suddenly brought this up, but she quickly shook her head.

How could she possibly resent Miss Moonlit?

In her eyes, the Divine Artifact was originally the reward for Miss Moonlit desperately saving her and Gasper. If Miss Moonlit hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have even known she had a Divine Artifact within her.

As for Gasper, it was even more so. He had always rejected his Divine Artifact and was glad when Miss Moonlit took it. He had begged Miss Moonlit to take it.

"……"

As expected, such good children.

She should give them even more compensation. Without the power of their Divine Artifacts, Valerie's own strength wasn't outstanding.

Even though she was a Vampire…

"Go call Gasper over."

"Okay."
