Upon entering the building, John was greeted by a splendid lobby. The place was bustling with awakeners, and at the far end, a vast virtual projection displayed a wide array of awakener items including equipment, spiritual herbs, and medicines. As John stepped into the trading hall, a woman dressed in a professional black silk outfit approached him. She wore a welcoming smile and said, "Hello, sir. How may I assist you today?"

Standing on the open ground outside the Necrochurch, John stared blankly at the ruins, murmuring, "At least let me pick up the loot before collapsing, how long do you expect me to dig for?!" John felt like exploding, having soloed a BOSS only to end up needing to excavate the equipment bit by bit; he was on the verge of spitting blood. "Chuckle!" Just then, a low, melodious laugh came from beside him. John turned, only to find Seraphina had returned to her usual aloof demeanor, her hair and eyes…

... These skeletons, both in terms of HP and attack power, were quite weak, but their numbers were exceedingly vast. At a glance, John saw at least twenty to thirty of them, and more skeletons were continuously crawling out from the crypt below, sending shivers down one's spine. Witnessing this scene, Seraphina no longer stood by idly. Her expression serious, her crystal staff lit up with an icy-blue glow.

The two damage numbers rose from the Ghost Wizard and the gargoyle guard, stripping away a significant portion of their health. Both were sent flying by the tremendous force.

John raised an eyebrow and asked with a teasing smile, "How about it, Miss Winters? Are you satisfied with my service?" John had only meant to tease Seraphina, but to his surprise, she actually nodded earnestly and said, "Your strength is indeed formidable. Apart from the monsters within the major families of the Imperial City, you are the strongest of our age that I have…
