Deepest part of the cave.
Final chamber vibes.
Boss music?
No.
Ominous chanting?
Also no.
What greeted us was… rocks.
Just a massive, ridiculously wide cavern glittering with ore veins. Silver, iron, dark crystal, things I didn't even recognize but instinctively knew were worth more than my entire inventory combined.
I blinked.
Then blinked again.
"…This," I said slowly, "is either a blessing or the dungeon equivalent of a prank."
Kael walked ahead, boots crunching against loose stone. "There's no boss," he said, scanning the area. "No exit portal either."
Zeref frowned. "No traps visible."
Luna tilted her head. "It feels… empty."
Oreo sniffed the air. "Suspiciously peaceful."
That was when the system, right on cue, decided to slap us.
The ground trembled.
The light shifted.
And the UI popped up like it had been waiting for us to relax.

I stared at the window.
Silence fell.
