The Dark Core

With everyone's eyes fixed intently on him, Jeremy spoke his mind without hesitation. 

"I believe we have a good chance of succeeding this time, even though I contributed the most effort." he remarked confidently. 

"However, when it comes to dividing the spoils, I think it would be best if we each take what we need." he added, emphasizing fairness and practicality.

After making this statement, Jeremy glanced at both Howard and Ella.

Their expressions remained largely unchanged, they were simply waiting for Jeremy to continue speaking.

"I believe that for the Black Dragon Squad, a treasure chest isn't particularly valuable, but a skill book is indeed extremely precious. Therefore, Captain Ella, you should take this rare skill book."

"As for General Howard, I believe that, from an official standpoint, a golden treasure chest holds significantly more value. So, you might as well take this golden chest." Jeremy suggested thoughtfully.
