Chapter 102: *Sharing the loot part 1*
They all went to the living room, and after making room, Kevin and Axel started taking out all the bloodstones they had collected.
When Kevin looked inside his magic bag, he saw that he still hadn’t added to his inventory what they had won Saturday. But since he would have a lot of free time over the next few days, he would take the time to sort out everything that was in it.
So, after all the bloodstones were out, Kevin opened up the holographic screen of his System and went directly to his Inventory menu.

Kevin was stunned. What the hell, he thought. All he wanted to do was take out the boxes that were in his inventory, namely, a high grade box and a legendary grade box. But when he saw what had appeared just above the high grade box, his heart began to race.
Axel heard the change in Kevin’s heartbeat and asked him worriedly, "What’s wrong, babe? Do you feel unwell?"
Unwell... Kevin looked at Axel, startled, and then he remembered that Axel could hear his heart, so he said quickly, "Not at all, but you are all going to be blown away."
He then made the high grade box and the legendary grade box appear, which was enough to amaze Alan and Erik as if they had never seen one before.
But Axel wasn’t fooled by these boxes; he looked at him with an eyebrow raised to let him know that he was still waiting to see what was so mind-blowing.
Kevin’s smile widened as he revealed the four Elixirs of Long Life of legendary grade. They all looked at him, startled; even Alan, who had good knowledge when it came to potions, had no idea what kind of potions these were. So Kevin announced to them triumphantly, "These are the Elixirs of Long Life, legendary grade. We each have one—too cool, isn’t it?"
When he saw that everyone was still speechless, he said to them again, "Make some more room; I have another surprise for everyone." They all came out of their stupor, and Alan surprised everyone by putting the sofa directly into his magic bag.
He said, when he saw that everyone was looking at him with stunned expressions on their faces, "Well, what? Kevin asked us to make more room. I will put the sofa back in the living room later."
Kevin then chuckled, and while looking at them with a bright smile, he took out the divine grade box he had found in the boss room. Finally, he chose to leave the throne in his magic bag because there was already a lack of space in their small living room.
The high grade box was the smallest of the three and was a bright red color. As for the legendary grade box, it looked just like two drops of water in comparison to the chests they had previously discovered. Finally, the divine grade box, which was the most imposing of the three, was also the most beautiful; it was as if all the colors of a prism were shimmering on a black surface, like a magnificent black opal.
As nobody moved, he took the opportunity to tell them, "Before starting to open the boxes, I will first look at the messages that the System sent me. After all, we promised to share absolutely all the rewards."
He then opened the holographic screen of his System again and looked at the messages on the main menu, and the first message really shocked him.
[ EXCEPTIONAL REWARDS ]

For successfully completing Optional Quest 1 and 2, you have earned 4 Elixirs of Long Life, legendary grade.
After clearing his throat, he said to the others, "I will read to you the messages I have received from the System and the rewards we have obtained."
After the message of the Exceptional Rewards, there was one that summarized their last fight.
[ SUMMARY ]

Kevin then checked back in his Inventory menu and asked Alan to give him his magic bag. Alan handed it to him, wondering what he was going to do with it, but Kevin just opened it. After a few seconds, he closed it back and threw it to him.
Alan, too curious, checked it, and his eyes widened when he saw that Kevin had just put 200,000 gold coins inside. Kevin then told him, "This is the money from the rewards I received from the System by completing quests and killing demons."
He added with a wink, "But you’ll have to share it with Erik; we split everything in two, and then you two can decide how you want to distribute it."
Alan nodded, and Erik then asked him, curious to know how much they had just won, "How much did we just get, my love?"
Alan said, looking him in the eye, "You were right when you said we shouldn’t regret our choice because we were all going to enjoy the rewards... Sweetheart, Kevin just gave us 200,000 gold coins."
Erik stammered: "2... 200,000?"
Kevin and Axel laughed heartily, and Axel then told them, "And that’s just the beginning."
Axel gave them each a potion and handed theirs to Kevin, who immediately put them back in his Inventory. Axel then said, "Let’s share the bloodstones first; we will open the boxes later."
Once the bloodstones were sorted, Kevin took one of each and pulled out a sheet of paper and a pencil from his magic bag. He wrote on it the grade and size of each bloodstone they had in their possession, along with their value.
When he was done, he handed the sheet of paper to Alan, who motioned for Erik to come and look at it too. When they read the information Kevin had marked on it, "shocked" seemed very weak to describe their state of mind.
All bloodstones are high grade; small ones are worth 50,000 gold coins or 2,500 diamonds. Medium ones are worth 100,000 gold coins or 5,000 diamonds. Large ones are worth 200,000 gold coins or 10,000 diamonds.
The 3 that come from the dungeon boss are legendary grade, small size, and are worth 500,000 gold coins or 25,000 diamonds.
1 diamond = 100 gold coins.
Kevin then told them, in front of their astonished expressions, "I think if they are worth so much money, it’s because they come from Superior Demons, and as the System has told us before, bloodstones are the equivalent of magical crystals to the demons."
Axel then began dividing their loot in half, and each group received 200 small bloodstones, 30 medium ones, 10 large ones, and 1 legendary grade.
Erik then said without hesitation, "You can keep the third bloodstone from the dungeon boss; after all, it was Kevin who killed him."
Alan agreed with Erik and pushed the last bloodstone towards Axel and Kevin. But Kevin didn’t see it that way; to him, it didn’t matter who killed the dungeon boss. The four of them had been in danger, plus it was Alan and Erik who had watched over them afterward.
He then said to them, "I agree to take the last bloodstone, but in that case, you must take the throne of the dungeon boss."
Alan thought about it; he could see that Kevin was determined, so he chose to accept it. He said to them, "Okay, let’s do this then. I will auction it off during the annual capital tournament, and we will split the winnings: 60% for us and 40% for you. Is that okay with you?"
Everyone seemed to agree, so Kevin transferred the throne from his magic bag to Alan’s and then told them, "What’s inside the boxes is completely random; we may not be able to share everything."
Alan and Erik nodded; they didn’t mind. They had already won a real fortune, so they didn’t care if what was in those boxes couldn’t be shared.
