I do not understand. Punishing one for doing their best seems rather harsh.

[ Godzilla ponders this while picking up one of the laser guns and... proceeding to look right down the firing end of it. Safe laser or not this man has zero idea of weapons safety. ]

I do however see the value in offering a reward. If you prove yourself the superior combatant I shall cover your next five indulgences. Does that sound amiable?
