Quickly settling into Earth's well-known Lotus position, Lewis chanted the mantra, settling the overflowing experience into his body. As the energy flowed through him, the duo (minus the baby for obvious reasons) began settling the loot.
"Aww, the core's been shattered into pieces. Heard that if it was whole, the price would've been high, like straight out of the roof high. Man, if only– Holy shit!"
In front of their shocked eyes, the core shrapnels began floating. Slowly gaining momentum, they began congregating together. Before their shocked eyes, the core reassembled itself, seamless to the very edge.
Dragging their tired bodies, they prepared themselves for their second final fight, only to see the core explode like a firework. Under their surprised eyes, an ability orb, a scroll and a rainbow-coloured gem appeared.
Cautious, Lewis picked up a stick, prodding the gem. Seeing that there were no traps, Goblina scampered to the drops, pocketing them before returning to Lewis. "Here, please check them..."
Using 'Appraisal', Lewis checked out the lot from the slime:
Item: Slimagem

Description: Upon tearing the scroll, a rain official bullets are unleashed upon your enemies. Causes caustic burns to occur, and if enemies are undefended, a high chance of acid poisoning can occur
Remark: No, I know what you're thinking. Don't think of using it on women...
"Umph, what the fuck are these snide-ass remarks!? And also, I'm not a pervert!" Screaming in rage, Lewis was very nearly tempted to destroy the drops, but stopped as soon as he thought of thr effort he had to go through to defeat the damn Slime.
Quickly grabbing the loots, Goblina hid them inside the backpack, for fear that Lewis might change his mind and finish the job. "So, how shall we split the loot? I'm telling you, as your senior, I should get the first dibs..." Growling, Goblina hugged the backpack, fearing that Lewis might use his superior strength (as a human), and rip the backpack from her.
Finding the attempt cute, Lewis shook Goblina's rugged hair even rougher. "Kid, i ain't gonna argue with you here. Hell, I'm even willing to give you all the loot..." Chuckling, Lewis picked up his tired body, heading to the boy, but stopped right as he got close.
Gone was the naive look, his eyes now filled with ageless wisdom.
"Congratulations for passing this trial, oh heir of the Broken One. Though I'm under oath and seal, unable to say much, but I can say this much:
Beware of the traitors..."
With that, the area began shaking, as everything soon began collapsing onto itself...
