John responded with a smile and a nod, making his way to the bar.
Victor, who was mixing drinks behind the counter, glanced up and remarked, "You've improved quickly, breaking through to the silver-tier in just a day."
While Victor was surprised at John's rapid advancement, it was not entirely beyond his expectations.
He knew John's strength and talent well, understanding that leveling up was hardly a challenge for him.
John took the strong drink Victor handed him, smiling.
"I plan to head to the capital tomorrow. I came here today to say goodbye."
Victor placed the glassware he was holding back onto the shelf behind him and nodded slightly.
"It's good to leave earlier. After all, Stellarburg is rather small for you."
Even Victor had to admit, keeping John's talent within the confines of Stellarburg felt like a waste.
