Despite getting so many of the fragments I needed, I didn’t get enough to complete any of them!
Now I had three of each, a bunch of Soul Elixirs, and some equipment pieces.
Ugh, can I get a few more treasure chests with the coins I got so far?
Let me see how many I got now…
[Nether Coins]: [29.136]
Uh, maybe if I purchase the lowest ranking one, after all they might have much lower chances, but I get more chances at it than the higher chance ones that are more expensive, right?
“More! Give me more!”
“E-Eh? But Madam, gambling addiction is not something I would ever incentive and-“
“Take the coins and give me all the lowest ranking treasure chests right now!”
“O-Okay!”
Julius screamed in horror at my overly dramatic screams, I might be losing my mind.
But I wanted the damn key!
And I’m going to get it no matter what!
“Here… please have them…”
Ding!
[You have exchanged 25.000 Nether Coins.]
[You have purchased [You have opened the [Nether Portal Treasure Chest (B Grade)] X5]
“There they are… Now don’t fail me, Luck!”
Wait, I think I can do something about this.
FLUOSH!
I suddenly unleashed my strongest Aura, combining several skills activations at once, slightly transforming and even summoning my crown, wings made of blades, everything.
“E-Eh? Mom?!”
Elena panicked, as she saw me unleash all my power.
“Don’t worry I set a barrier, so Merlinus won’t be able to detect me anyways…”
But this, I did it all to get my Luck Stat even higher!
All these Skills and Buffs that increase “All Stats” will also increase Luck Stat.
“Now, let’s open them!”
I should have done this way before, but I never thought about it until now.
Dammit, give me what I want!
FLAAASH!
All five treasure chests opened and…
Ding!

“N-No way…”
I felt completely destroyed, there was no hope anymore.
“Um, madam, did you thought that Luck Stat affects the item by any chance?” wondered Julius. “Because it doesn’t… The rates are fixed by the system.”
“A-Ah…” I felt even more devastated. “Okay then…”
I had to accept I was unable to get it and just move on I guess.
“Sorry for overreacting, I’m stupid.”
“Ah, no, don’t worry about it.”
As I sighed and felt like my plan was breaking apart, Mark stepped in.
“Can I buy the treasure chests too?”
“Huh?”
I looked at Mark, carrying a bag of Nether Coins of his own.
“Me too!”
My daughter also stepped in to buy some more.
“I got some coins on me as well, give me as many of those things, skelly.”
Rita then also asked for more of these.
“I have some too!”
Lily as well.
“Uh well, after seeing her like this… Please let me buy some as well.”
Even Angelina?!
“Everyone…”
I felt moved as they smiled at me, and Julius happily sold them the treasure chests.
“Of course! Please have them! I have an endless supply from the system!”
More people gathered around us, not only Players but also the NPC seeing as everyone started opening the treasure chests, trying their luck.
“There, I got a Heart Fragment!” Mark said. “Love, there you go.”
He gave the fragment to me without even hesitating.
“Mark… Thank you…”
I felt a bit moved.
“Mom, I got another key fragment after I opened all of the ones I bought. Is this what you needed?”
My daughter also gave me the fragment.
“Really?! W-With this we got the key completed! And the heart! Ah, but even with one heart, not everyone will be able to-“
“Hey, I got a bunch of heart fragments!” Lily said. “I must’ve been lucky!”
“Got a couple myself,” Rita noted.
“Me as well,” said Angelina.
“I got only one…” said Erdrich.
“Ah! Got three! Nyahahahaha!” Anikitty giggled.
“I got one as well…” Anna said. “Is this useful somehow? Why did your mom want them so badly?”
“W-With this…”
We ended calculating how many fragments we got, it was enough to create four hearts!
It was enough to create four, so that meant four of our members could go there without suffering from penalties.
Better than I expected!
However, who are we going to choose though?!
Should it be me, Mark, Rita, and… Lily?
Or maybe my daughter?
Wait, what about Angelina or her group?
We can’t exclude them.
Or maybe give it to an NPC…
Erebus?
“What?” he immediately noticed I was glancing at him while squinting my eyes. “I don’t suffer penalties in the Underworld, my own Demon King Miasma protects me easily, also I’m practically immune to Nether.”
“Oh…”
He was pretty OP, that’s so unfair!
…
Maybe I’m not the best person to be saying that though.
