That's all of them. When I used the first rare Gatcha token I got a skill orb for Ice Devil Slayer Magic, or IDSM for short. It started at novice rank but I took some upgrade quests for it as well as my sacred gears. The first few upgrade quests were pretty easy but that makes sense as it was the first few ranks not the later ranks. I also got perks for my base stats reaching certain milestones, I asked the system about it and it realized it hadn't implemented that yet so it corrected that. This is what I got.

I also played through the I.D.s a few times and found out something neat. The [Castle] dungeon is tied to the [Medieval Army] dungeon. I have to defeat the later at a certain color in order to challenge the former at that color. Apparently the system made it so that the army is defending the castle in the dungeon of the same name. An interesting bit of lore for certain.
Anyway I went through the [Medieval Army], [Goblin], and [Zombie] dungeons on white and not in that order. I also fought quite a few demons on the island which helped my level.
The items I got from the dungeons weren't to awfully special. The [Medieval Army] dungeon gave weapons that were all common rank, I used one of the swords to test my reflective dungeon skill on and level it up.
The [Goblin] dungeon dropped the most valuable stuff, small gemstones like rubies and sapphires. Finally the [Zombie] dungeon dropped bones and human blood. Yeah gross but could be helpful should I take a class that needs that stuff.
I also gained 3 more rare Gatcha tokens. I used them and 10 common Gatcha tokens. These are the items I got with the first three coming from the rare ones.
[Champion Gem: Mikoto Uchiha (De-aged 17)]

[Infinite Pack of Every Flavor Gum (C)]
[Lancelot Knightmare Frame Final Version Blueprints (Code Geass) (SR)]
[Evil Pieces Blueprint (E)]
The pulls from the Gatcha were awesome more than likely because of my perk which made me chose to use my tokens. I've been using the Nichirin sword the best I can but I imagine it will be easier once I take the [Swordsman] class. The campion gem is also very useful and I'll use it once I leave this island and get to a place where I can summon her safely. I tried the phone but it doesn't work here due to the water surrounding the island. So that was a bust but at least it has infinite battery life as it runs on ambient magic that it takes in and then use as energy. It also as infinite storage and came with games as well as all the music I listened to in my two lives. I also got two quests because of the blueprints.

The question marks are interesting so I'm looking forward to it, though I think I might have a guess to it like some of the previous things. They are mostly very obvious things and I'd like to think I'm not an idiot.
Anyway, I now just need to finish the [Mage] class and half finish a standard class. I chose the [Chef] job class after survivor because I haven't unlocked the magic job classes and I need good food or I was going to go insane! Anyway soon I can leave this island.
Also yeah I do find it pretty ironic that I have all the things needed for a demon/devil slayer build. And also the blueprints make me start having ideas but, I have to wait to act on them and am trying to ignore them for now until I can.
I was currently camping out towards the shore of the island as that was the least dangerous part of the island. Suddenly a magic circle appeared on the sand near me. I ran a fare distance away to the edge of where the forest starts to still be in view but able to run into the forest to avoid the newcomer if they chose to kill me on sight.
When the light died down I saw a very pretty girl standing there that seemed to be my age. She had a head of short silver hair, blue eyes that looked like sapphires and fair skin like snow. She wore a white biker jacket open-faced over a blue t-shirt and white denim jeans with blue trainers. She had what I'd guess as DD to E cup breasts and an ass that looked just right on her with her hourglass figure that seemed to reflect her training and lineage. She stood a 5'10 super model and that's not just my lack of human interaction talking.
I used observe on her immediately even though I can guess who she is.

Description: The gender bent version of Vali Lucifer. You know who this is. Though this Vali is calmer and not yet formed Vail squad, but has been thinking about how to get stronger.
She looked around and spotted me soon after, immediately taking a defensive stance. I was glad she wasn't attacking right away even though I seemed stronger then her stat wise I don't think it would hold up when she used [Divine Dividing] right now. I decided on the peaceful approach with her.
"Hey! I mean no harm! I'm stranded hear!" I yelled to cover the distance between us. She looked at me curiously after that and relaxed a bit.
"What do you mean your stranded?" she asked me after she walked closer so we didn't need to shout but still far enough to have a safe distance.
I figured as much of the truth as possible, without the obvious yet at least, was the route to take. So I said as much.
"My bastard father finally showed up to say hi and then decided to kill my mom and put me hear, probably to die without getting his hands dirty. Said I pretty much had to prove myself worthy of the family as I'm a 'filthy half-breed'. Even had the gall to say if I escaped to come find him so I could become his heir, fucking prick" I said, somewhat venting as I'm still pissed and venting to two non-physical dragons that are old as heck doesn't help as much as airing my grievances to someone made of flesh and blood. Sorry guys.
'No problem/Understandable' the two dragons previously mentioned said together as I had addressed them.
She looked at me with a face of understanding, and then suddenly I got a new notification that I took a glance at.
[Alert! New Feature Unlocked! Relationships Menu Now Available! Certain Quests' Rewards Have Been Updated! Tutorial Postponed Due To User's Current Situation! Tutorial Will Activate Once The Relationships Menu Is Accessed!]
+10 Affection with Valina (Vali) Lucifer (10/100). She feels sympathetic to your (true wow rare) story.
Yes! I got it! I figured I would have this, I mean not having it would be a low possibility. Anyway back to Vali.
"I'm sorry to hear about your mother. I have experience with bastard fathers. If you don't mind me asking, do you know what race your father was? Also how long have you been here?" she said relaxing more and taking a more conversational tone and stance. Probably to set me at ease more.
"Yeah I know what race he was and let me tell you I was surprised when I found out I was half devil. To answer your second question I've been here for month" I said to her in a matching tone.
She looked surprised to say the least. "You didn't even know what you are when you arrived and you've survived for a month! How?! That shouldn't be possible! For Satans' sake this is the isle of demons, known for killing even the top tiers of Fallen and Devils if they stay to long! And that's with supplies!" she shouted a mini rant in shear disbelief.
While she caught her beath I decided to talk.
"Well I had some help" I said and summoned the [Boosted Gear] "this helps."
Again she looked surprised, the shocked may be a better descriptor. Then I got an interesting notification.
+15 Affection with Valina (Vali) Lucifer (25/100). She's impressed with your growth with her counterpart.
-25 Reputation with Albion Gwiber (-25/100). You house Ddraig, duh.
Apparently my system is becoming sassy. Also the extra affection with Vail was surprising. Through I really am curious about my system.
[The systems flavor text will change to reflect to users preferences, you just like sassy humor. The system will also update in minor ways that due not affect the core of the system at different times to try and perfect the system for the users enjoyment.]
Oh, that's cool. Not a lot of systems would be so considerate. Anyway, Vail.
Suddenly a pair of white mechanical looking wings appeared on Vail's back in a flash of light. Soon after Albion spoke.
"Quick partner! It's time to fight our rival and test their metal!" he said in an almost bloodthirsty tone.
It seems Ddraig wasn't lying when he said that the canon Albion is much nicer than this one.
That's when the [Abyss Amulet] appeared in another flash of light. All I could think was 'Aaaahhh shiiiiit, he pissed of Mortiea.' I have spent quite sometime talking to the two dragons I house so I didn't go crazy and I have learned that Mortiea has a protective streak a mile wide. Probably wider.
"Like bloody hell you will! Albion Gwiber I will have every host I ever have from this point on hunt you down should you kill this host, secrecy by damned! I finally am able to be with my mate after all this time thanks to him and you know what that means to me!" she said in a scream that invoked fear in even me and she was saying it all to defend me!
Then after a short, pregnant silence Albion broke it. "Motherfucker! Mortiea! How the hell did you and Ddraig now somehow share a host!?" he yelled in anger and a trace of fear due to the threat.
+50 Obedience with Albion Gwiber (50/100). You house Mortiea, he has a healthy fear of her and, by proxy, you.
"How do you have two sacred gears?! And who is Mortiea?" Vali asked, rightly confused.
Thus began a long story on who Mortiea is/was and her theory on why I have both of my sacred gears, minus the reincarnation part. She was shocked (a running theme but I can't blame her) that such a thing was possible and that Mortiea's death was kept secret for so long. Albion was silent as Mortiea told him to shut up when he tried to yell again.
"This is just crazy. I was not expecting this when I came to the Demon Isle to try and get stronger. Then I finally find my rival only to find out that the rivalry is more or less over due to a believed perfectly fine, rarely mentioned, only Dragon Demi-God's wielder of her sacred gear, that no one knows about, also is said now former rival because Albion is scared of her. By the Satans I need a nap, maybe things will make sense when I wake up" Vail says I a tone that just expresses how done she is.
"Sorry, if you want to blame anyone blame that Barbatos bastard" I say to try and lighten the mode, only to get a massive groan from her. "What?" I ask.
"Are you sure you're a Barbatos?" she asks in a slightly disbelieving tone though not doubtful.
"Yeah it's what he said and I have the clan trait apparently according to my partners" I say. We had agreed to blame Mortiea for any gamer power to any not in the know as not even Ddraig and Albion know what all she is capable of.
"Well since you don't know and it seems that your partners don't know about, though Albion didn't know as well I'm guessing since most of, if not all of their hosts have been pure humans. This means that they wouldn't know about devil politics which I had to learn because of my adoptive dad. Anyway, the Barbatos clan is a member of the 72 pillars the elite among the devils and they were believed extinct dying off in the devil civil war. This was a big deal due to their clan trait even though none of them had manifested it in a few generations. Has you have noticed more than likely demons are strong, well demons are in fact stronger on average then devils and are near impossible to tame. So your clan was heavily valued because in the biblical war the first Barbatos and immediate descendants tamed armies of demons for the devil faction massively bolstering their forces. But if they're pretending to be all dead that means that they joined the Old Satan faction, which are the devil equivalent to Nazis. I can say that for sure because that'd be the only real reason as if they were on the New Satan faction's side, the ones who over through the previous regime for the better, they would be treated like royalty. But if not there every move would be monitored so it's better to play dead" she explained.
"You could be a game changer for any faction with your sacred gears alone, but with your clan trait it's insane your political value" she explained a little further.
"Oh, that's a little much. I'm not sure how to process that" I said speaking the truth.
I never thought that my clan trait was so important, and apparently my clans backstory changed from canon as well. I'm mean yeah taming demons sounds cool as fuck but I didn't think demons were like how she described or that they were so powerful. Also I knew my sacred gears and other things from the system would make me politically valuable, but to be hit in the face with it caught me off guard.
"Well I can understand that. I've been there too. If you don't mind me asking do you have a preference of what faction you'd like to join?" she asked with a genuine curiosity.
I knew this was a loaded question even if she didn't mean it to be, I could tell from her body language as due to my enhanced senses I can perceive it easier. I used to be good at it in my first life, and now I can even hear her heartbeat to aid me. This only proves to me that this Vali is very different then canon Vali and I think it might have to due to more then a gender swap, mainly Albion's different personality. So I answered truthfully as if I lied and then joined a different faction she would grow to hate me in time, after all 'Hell as no wrath like a women scorned'.
"Honestly from what all Ddraig and Mortiea have told me and my own experiences I'm going with the New Satan faction. The Old Satan's have the bastard so that's a solid no, the church tried to kill me as an infant for not being human, you see my mother was an ex-nun and got seduced by my father but the church took pity on her before I was born. My mother refused to have me killed and left the church, so I'm not too keen on them. The Heaven faction can't keep their follows, the church, in line and let them run rampant and unchecked. Then finally the Grigori, from what my partners say their leader lets his fellow Fallen get away with literal murder and way back when his experiments didn't always involve willing test subjects, though he has gotten better in that front as time as gone on. Thus the New Satans as they try their best to keep their faction in line and even though apparently the bastard stole a set of evil pieces or it was just a normal servant that went rouge, they are pretty much my best option. Plus they have a better type of government in my option amongst the factions, and I mean all of them, as the four satans were appointed by the people and their not over 2000 years old" I state my choice and reasons for it.
I noticed that she flinched at the part about the Grigori but other wise was nodding along to my reasoning.
"I'm not going to argue your points as I can't, despite the fact that I'm currently affiliated with the Grigori. My dad is Azazel, well adopted dad. My birth father is the grandson of the original Lucifer. But yeah I can't argue that my dad could do better as a leader, honestly I don't think he was meant for it. He is a good dad though, I once asked what he would do if I was apart of another faction and he told me he'd honestly be glad since I wouldn't be in as much danger as I am in the Grigori, that's actually why I don't stay at their base too often with the excuse of trying to get stronger which I am doing anyway" she said to me with a bit of bitter sweet smile at the end.
I had to ask so I did, I always did have bad impulse control in personal conversations. Thank Satan that it doesn't apply to formal talks.
"Why aren't you safe at their HQ?" I asked in a truly concerned voice.
She hesitated but apparently the comradery and slight respect she has for me let her answer my question.
"While my dad is the leader it's as you say, he doesn't have good control over them and some are let's say… creepy. Being a girl and not one of them leads to some valid and extreme concerns. So it's best I stay out and be careful when I'm there" she says in a slightly quit voice "gladly nothings happened so far but leers are a common sight."
I almost saw red my sin of wrath increasing it. My power burst forth in my rage, over powering [Power Concealment] and causing my wings to come forth. My aura was intense enough to be visible, something that could happen after level 150.
"Wh-what's wrong man?!" she says in concern and awe.
I force myself to calm down and succeed after a while putting away all that appeared. I then answered her.
"I despise rapists and their ilk. I also possess a Major Sin of Wrath so that only magnifies my rage. I drink my 'respect woman juice' the best I can" I say the last part in a joking tone to try and lighten the mood.
+5 Affection with Valina (Vali) Lucifer (30/100). She's a women, I don't need to explain.
She gave me a small smile and a look of understanding. She then spoke again.
"Well it seems your close to being able to leave like me so why don't you and me train together until we can leave on our own power? I planned to train to a level greater then that but I've taken a shine to you and I want to go with you when you join the New Satans to at least check it out and ensure you get there safely. What do you say…" a look crossed her face then "…we didn't exchange names did we?" she asked though more made it sound like a fact with her tone.
She gained a small blush on her face and scratched the back of her neck. I decided I'd go first.
"Well let's fix that then. I'm Damien Barbatos, formerly Smith, nice to meet you and I'd be glad to train with you and have you accompany me to the New Satans" I said in a friendly tone and reached out my hand.
She took my hand and said "I'm Valina Lucifer though everyone calls me Vali, and the feelings mutual. Glad you accepted" in a similar tone to mine.
We talked a little more and then started toward the jungle. I then checked a notification after I accepted Vali's offer.

It's all a neat quest and entirely doable. I guess this is meant to be one of the starting quests that helps set me up and this is probably the last one.
I start running to catch up to Vali has she beckons me and I ask the system a question. Can I tell others about the system and if so when?
[The user can tell others after they reach 50 Affection/Reputation and will not be able to tell others after you tell them even if their affection drops below 50 again for whatever reason. Affection/Reputation only lock when they reach 100.]
Ok now I have my goal, get Vail to at least 50 affection as soon as possible and convince her to be my [Queen] piece when I get my get my evil pieces. It will make it easier to get her out of that horrible place where she is in danger from her own supposed comrades. I'll check the tutorial for the [Relationships] menu when we break for camp.
