Chapter 1719: Treasure Hunt (2/2)

There was a few hours of time difference between Japan and India, when they went out, it was early in the morning, and in India, it was still dawn, which was why there weren't that many people around the temple.

Raikou patted everyone's back and said, ”Let's talk while walking.”

Everyone nodded and also started to walk together. Even though it was dawn, they could see that there were still some people there, whether they were a guard or some people who went to pray in the temple.

”Haru, what kind of temple is this?” Sakura asked.

”This is Padmanabhaswamy Temple,” Haru said.

”Do you think that there's a treasure here?” Sora asked.

”Um.” Haru nodded.

”Can you tell us the source of the treasure?” Kirari asked.

”Hmm, based on what I know, those treasures are believed to have been accumulated in the temple over several thousands of years, having been donated to the Deity, and subsequently stored in the Temple, by various Dynasties, such as the Cheras, the Pandyas, the Kolathiris, the Pallavas, the Cholas, the Travancore Royal Family and many other Kings in the recorded history of both South India and beyond, and from the rulers and traders of Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, Greece, Rome, and later from the various colonial powers from Europe, and other countries,” Haru said.

”........” Everyone was dumbfounded.

”Is this alright? I mean, they're a huge wealth, right? Is it really alright that we're going to get it?” Sakura asked unsurely. After all, those were the treasures of the people in India, right? She felt that it wasn't good to take those treasures.

”Sakura, this is where you're wrong.” Utaha shook her head.

”Wrong?” Sakura titled her head and felt confused.

”This is a treasure hunt.” Utaha looked at Sakura and said, ”If we don't take it, I'm sure that someone will take it, and the one who is going to take it might not be someone from India too, or rather, it might be other people.”

Kirari nodded and said, ”With that amount of wealth that has accumulated over centuries, it can blind anyone, and to get that wealth, they might fight each other, so it is better to take that wealth, so no one is going to fight, right?”

”Well...” Sakura somehow felt their reason was quite logical.

”Still, I won't say that what I'm doing isn't a crime, but I'm doing this for everyone's goods,” Haru said.

”Huh?” Everyone was dumbfounded.

”Why do you think that I've decided to take the treasures?” Haru asked.

”Because of your greed?” Megumi asked.

”....You're not wrong, but with all of my wealth, I can't spend all of that wealth, so who is going to take that wealth?” Haru asked.

”Our descendant?” Kirari asked.

”Yes.” Haru nodded and said, ”I'm sure that my children will have some of my talents, but no one really knows in the future, right? So even if their aptitude is quite average, at least they won't have to worry about eating or living with all that wealth.” He was sure that his children wouldn't be average, and he was sure that they would be full of talents, but what about the next thousand of years or something?

Hearing Haru's words, they nodded. After all, they knew that they would have his children in the future, even if their children were alright, then what about the next one?

”Well, let's open the treasure, alright?” Haru smiled then said, ”Stay back for a bit, the air inside the temple isn't good, and there might be poison since it hasn't been opened for a century.”

They nodded and stepped back for a bit from Haru.

Haru then used his device to cause disruption around the satellite in the world, then opened the temple with his ”Sticky Finger.”

Everyone saw a huge zipper was opened, and then they were dumbfounded when they saw a huge amount of wealth in front of him and knew that they had successfully gotten the treasure!
