'Well, that was a successful Heist if I ever saw one. Now let's see what these rewards are.'
{Thief lvl: 1/100
0/100
This Skill increases the odds of success when doing actions that are considered thief skills. This includes things like Lockpicking, Pickpocketing, Forgery, Trap Making, Stealing, Parkour, Alchemy, Speechcraft, and many more. Stacks with the Stealth Skill. Increases the effectiveness of thief actions by 2%. }
{Name: Kazuma Summon
Summons Kazuma Satou the Master Underwear Thief. Will be 18 years old. Has a high Luck stat. Known by many nicknames. Will be loyal to summoner but extremely lazy. }
{Name: The Galatron
The Galatron pulsates with indescribable power... Produces 5 tons of random non-dangerous material once per month when activated. Gives a passive bonus to whatever nation controls the Galatron. This bonus gives increased legitimacy and diplomatic weight. This makes other nations acknowledge the controller as a more diplomatically important and powerful nation. }
{Name: The Thieves Guild Vault
Allows the user to summon a physical vault that is impossible to open without the summoner's permission. Inside this vault are all the items the Thieves Guild has stolen except for Daedric or Aedric Artifacts and Elder Scrolls. Items can be added and stored. Anything stored in the vault does not age or decay. The inside of the vault is infinite. The user can find what they want in the vault instantly. }
'Okay, that is a great reward for something that wasn't that difficult to do. I mean Music Meister did a lot of the work. The rewards are welcome nonetheless. The System Points make it so I have now officially become a Billionaire in the system. I could also sell most of the items from the Vault I got. Or use it for other means. The Galatron is interesting but its passive effects are a bit confusing. Still, it seems to be positive. A new skill is always welcome. Even if the skill is for a less savory profession. Lastly, is the summon for Kazuma. I am not sure I would want to summon him. He doesn't bring much to the table.'
I decide to leave the Kazuma summon for a later time. At least until my summons and I can agree on what to do. My next step was to sort through the materials and figure out what will be kept and what will be sold. To do so I invited Lex, Seto, Tex, and Sendak. Fennekin was also here but that was because she was sleeping on my head. Sebas was taking care of Clark while Lex was busy.
Rio: "Here is a list of all the items that were stolen broken down by category."
Sendak: "Silver and Cobalt would be our best for magical materials."
Seto: "We should keep at least 20% of the Gold. At least to sell to the rest of the world. We have no real use for it due to our more efficient materials for conductors."
Lex: "Selling the radioactive materials would be wise. At most, we should keep around 1% of what we have obtained."
Rio: "You would suggest we don't make more Nuclear Warheads?"
Lex: "While the weapons are useful they are expensive to maintain and are useless on planets as they cause too much damage. As for space, we saw how weak they were during our fight against the Covenant. 30k warheads and we only destroyed about a third of their forces. Several ships even managed to survive the blast."
Tex: "I am in agreement with Lex on this matter. We have better weapons to use instead of the Warheads. As for the other materials, I believe they could be used by our Transmuters or for the numerous infrastructure and building projects we have planned. With the Terraformer operational we can divert the materials to other projects."
Lex: "Much of the materials will have to be transmuted. Steel is okay for ground-based construction but not nearly good enough for our Warships or Megastructures. I believe that all the research we wanted to do on the ships is done except for the Cloaking Devices but we will finish those soon enough."
Sendak: "Lead, Nickel, Mercury, Bismuth, Platinum, and Steel should be reserved for Transmutation as their high density or quantity makes them ideal materials."
Rio: "That can be easily done."
Tex: "Tungsten and Tantalum should be reserved for research purposes."
Rio: "Fair enough."
Lex: "Dr. Octavius has requested all the Tritium we have."
Rio: "He can have it but if he wants to use it for any experiments he must do it on an uninhabited asteroid or planet."
Lex: "Understood."
Rio: "No what do we do with the massive amount of gemstones and minerals we have obtained?"
Seto: "We should store the cultural and historic ones."
Sendak: "The rest should be used to create a Diamond."
Rio: "Hmm, are you sure that is wise? The gemstones can be used for numerous magic spells or enchantments. As well as armor and weapons."
Sendak: "We have collected are large amount of Diamonds from the Minecraft Dimension. The amount we have collected is enough to make a Diamond but we need variety now to finalize the creation process. A Diamond would be a great military asset and they could rule over the Gem Homeworld."
Rio: "Hmm, what color of Diamond are you thinking of making?"
Sendak: "Either a Purple or Green. A Purple would be a great leader and very magically talented. Green would be good for nature preservation and beginning as a new leader."
Rio: "Hmm, both can be a great first Diamond. We can do some research together to decide who would be a superior choice."
Seto: "What do you intend on doing with all those Historic and Cultural Artifacts?"
Rio: "I was thinking of putting them in a Vault I just got. Then later on I will make or buy a museum that can hold all the artifacts. It would showcase all of Earth's Historic and Cultural artifacts and where they originated from. Free to citizens of the Imperium of course."
Lex: "That would have to wait until the Crystal Imperium announces itself as well as our destruction of Team Galactic."
Rio: "True, but that shouldn't be too many years off from now. Now should we scrap everything that was stolen for the base materials?"
Seto: "Not if it has some cultural or historic meaning but otherwise I don't see a reason to keep it."
Sendak: "Unless you want to use all those wedding bands for dark magic. They have no real use outside of that."
Lex: "From what I understand we didn't steal weapons, vehicles, people, or the Tesseract. So nothing that we stole should provide us with anything of note when it comes to research or technology."
Rio: "Fair enough. The last thing would be all the info we stole but Yularen and many Wood Clones are still sorting through what we got and if anything is of value to us."
They all seem to find that logical.
Rio: "Speaking of value would you like to see the Vault I was talking about?"
They all agree and I place the door to the Vault and once I open it I have to squint my eyes from the shine of all the gold, jewels, magic items, and many other things. Everyone seems to be surprised by the contents of the Vault.
Lex: "This is more than what the Asgardian Vault contained."
Rio: "Yes, but look closer at the coins."
They did and realized what I was talking about.
Sendak: "The coins are smaller and made of gold and not the Magical Asgardian Gold. Still, this Vault likely has more value in it than everything Asgard had combined."
Rio: "Which brings me to the next question what do we do with this?"
Seto: "I am confused what do you mean?"
Rio: "I can see us using this a few ways. We can use the coins as a base for our currency. It would take some enchanting but it would be relatively easy to make them impossible to smelt down into base materials without the right knowledge. I could sell them and earn a lot of System Points. We could also use it as a transmutation reserve. There are a lot of materials in here besides just gold. There are Iron, Steel, Corundum, Orcish, Dwarven, Skyforge, Moonstone, Quicksilver, Nordic, Malachite, Ebony, Stalhrim, Dragonbone, Dragon Scales, Ebonthread, Leather, Silver, and even Daedric Metals. It isn't unlimited but it is still a sizeable amount."
I then focused and took two massive gems and showed them to Sendak.
Rio: "Not to mention several items of immense value. There are also many magical artifacts in this Vault. Only I can allow access to the Vault and otherwise, it is impossible to get in here. Those are called the Eyes of the Falmer. I am sure you can tell that they are a potent magical focus."
Sendak: "Indeed, this could be used to make a massive magical ritual or two. Not to mention using it for a shield or barrier. Are there more things like this?"
Rio: "Likely a few. The only thing I can think of is the Crown of Barenziah. Not sure what it does exactly but it has a lot of historic value."
I grabbed the Crown from a bust and showed it to the others.
Sendak: "Hmm, I am not sure what it does either but I can tell it isn't anything negative."
I make a Wood Clone and have it try to put on the crown but the crown disintegrates into magical particles and returns to the bust I took it from.
Sendak: "Let me try."
We each take a turn trying to wear the crown but the result is the same every time. That is until Fennekin decides she wants to play and put the crown on. And it doesn't disintegrate.
Rio: "Well that means that it either only works for Pokemon or females. Or perhaps both?"
Sendak: "You said this crown was worn by a Queen correct?"
Rio: "Yes."
Sendak: "Perhaps it is enchanted to only allow females to wear it. And even further one needs resistance to fire."
Rio: "I see what you are saying. Well, we can test it out later for now we should get back to the main topic. What to do with all this stuff?"
Tex: "I think it would be logical to get everyone else to opine on this subject. More perspectives could allow us to see something we would have missed otherwise."
We all agreed to ask the others as this was a big decision.

Authors Note:
Suggest anything you think the Thieves Guild of the Elder Scrolls Series would have stolen. I don't know everything they stole as I have only interacted with the Oblivion and Skyrim versions. Also any suggestions for what the materials can be used for? Should Rio keep the Gold in the Vault or Sell it? Gacha is coming up in a few chapters. Lastly, should Kazuma be summoned or not? Why or why not? Until next time Ciao.
