One could say that Gagan felt tricked, backstabbed and quite possibly, bamboozled, when he entered the dark cave.
His hopes of getting rich so early on in the game were shattered like his heart did once. There was not a single coin, let alone a whole treasure in the cave.
He would have liked to start digging for it, but then Swara walked towards the part of the cave from where they had rescued Isaella.
Before he could say anything, he saw shiny coins shining in there.
He ran after her, and a screen appeared in front of him.
"Treasure Reward:
1) 5 Sairs
2) 150 Telks
3) 400 Coirs
4) Mask of Stone (incomplete) (1/4)
5) Savage Strike
6) Defense Delusion
7) Broticus Biotum
8) Elemental Explosion
9) Shadow Sneakers"
He was so surprised that he said, "Holy Huck! That's a lot." Shinigami looked at him weirdly, while Swara just rolled her eyes.
"In my defense, I did not expect this." He shrugged it off.
"It's the first kill. Of course it would be a large haul." Shinigami replied.
"Still, I find it too much. By the way, since he's helped us so much, Swara, I think we should let him pick first."
She thought about it and said, "Sure, but I think we should wait for Himu bro to come back."
"Okay." Shinigami was fine with that. Then he decided to pick up the stuff he wanted, the others also checked them out.

"Sounds like a plant."
"Oh, this is epic."
"Nice, I'm going to learn that right now."
"Why is this for the Rogue class only?"
"Huh? What's an Artifact?"
"This is also only for you Swara."
Gagan kept commenting as he picked up the Skill books one by one.
"This just keeps getting more and more unbelievable. I'm starting to believe in God, or at least the developers of this game." He was even more happy seeing so much stuff, especially the fact there was Epic and Semi-Epic stuff, even if they weren't for him. It just showed the generosity of the game developers. So there would be even better rewards later on in the game, right?
"I'm thinking of opening the chest too. I feel like this is a lucky day for us."
Actually it was Gagan's luck stat of 88 that neither him nor anyone else was aware of, that had brought this to them, while the minimum luck was that of Swara's in the team.
