Su Ran is a transmigrator endowed with the unique Double Treasure Chest talent, allowing any treasure chest he owns to be opened twice, with the second opening yielding higher-value items tied to his dungeon performance. Growing up in an orphanage, he learned silence and caution, began working in a restaurant kitchen at fourteen, and saved every credit. At sixteen, his mental power adaptability tested at high blue, but the cost of a profession scroll forced him into a 200,000 credit loan. He obtained a Basic Scholar scroll, a weak but affordable start. Now living in a cramped room on energy blocks and debt, his Scholar class grants Knowledge Insight, Scroll Crafting, Light, and Lesser Heal, but direct combat is poor. Crafting scrolls becomes his primary income source. After a previous dungeon, the Gloomy Rat's Nest, he sells a reinforced wooden shield and a simple wristguard at a fair inner‑ring shop, Old Henry’s Sundries. With the proceeds of six silver and thirty copper coins, he buys ten blank sheepskin scrolls and a stamina potion. Returning home, he crafts five Scrolls of Illumination and attempts Scrolls of Lesser Healing. After three failures, he succeeds on the fourth and fifth tries, producing two healing scrolls, with a success rate far above the average Scholar due to his condensed mental power. He contacts Shield Guard and two Spearmen from his previous team to propose a run of the Skeleton Graveyard dungeon on Simple difficulty, a step up from the Rat’s Nest with better rewards—weapons strong against undead and valuable bone materials—but more aggressive skeleton soldiers. Shield Guard acquires a hardwood tower shield, and the spearmen sharpen their weapons. Su Ran provides the light scrolls as a tactical core. The team enters the cold, gray Skeleton Graveyard. They defeat two initial skeletons, then a group of four, noting the number of enemies doubles per wave. Reaching a central area with a broken stone pillar, eight grave bags suddenly explode, spawning eight skeleton soldiers, two wielding woodcutting axes. Su Ran prepares to use his Light spell and healing scrolls as the team braces for a fierce battle. His ultimate goal is to climb out of poverty, pay off his loan, and grow stronger by exploiting his double treasure chest talent and crafting abilities. The story covers his background, his careful preparation, and his first steps into a more dangerous dungeon, ending at the moment the eight skeletons attack.✦✦✦
