Chapter: 226
He analysed it, curious once more as he forgot what happened last time.
[?] The item still didn’t let him analyse it.
“Damn… I’ll have to check on it later or ask someone about it.”
Jay wasn’t sure what it was, or if it was getting bigger or if his memory was just bad, but he made a mental note to try and remember he had it in his inventory – to check it in the future.
“I’d better not sit on it since I have no clue what it is.”
With a shrug, he stashed it back in his inventory.
“Whatever, I guess I’ll just lie down for a moment.”
Jay waited patiently for his skeletons to finish the fight, surprised by Blue, which even managed to knock off one of their black helmets to end it even faster when it started slapping it’s hammer against the soldier’s head.
Lamp and Red were pushed back for a moment, but soon, Blue had finished one and the last soldier didn’t stand for much longer.

“Nicely done.” Jay leisurely nodded in approval and gave his skeletons a golf-clap, feeling quite pompous as he was lying down. It was as if this was a gladiator tournament all designed to entertain him.
Jay looted the statues and proceeded forward, walking between the pillars quietly. It didn’t take long before the party came to some stairs; the pillars going up on each side of them.
“Onwards and upwards,” he shook his head, not looking forward to walking up a seemingly endless set of stairs.
“Oh?” Oh, great.” he smiled. He couldn’t see it in the darkness, but the stairs only went upwards for about two stories. Reaching the top, he realised that it was actually a small pyramid.
“A pyramid within the pyramid… so stupid…” he shook his head with a mocking smile
“at least there’s a reward.”
Before Jay, glistening in the soft-blue light of his luminous orb was the glinting glow of a golden chest.
On the chest was a single engraved word.
“Sedulus….”
“Hmm. Why does that seem familiar? Oh well. You should have put your treasure chest in a safer place, whatever happens is on you… this isn’t my fault” Jay shrugged, justifying his actions as he went to loot the chest, trying to hide his excited smile.
“Wait, I don’t need to justify myself anyway, this is a dungeon.” This was Jay’s first dungeon treasure chest, and to him, it felt strange to open up a chest to steal its contents – at least for now.
Opening the lid slightly, his eyes reflected a golden gleam of light shining out from below the lid – suddenly he opened it completely, excited about what he would find.
“Cmon, give daddy something good!”
“…”
“What the?”
