The hesitant footsteps echoed on the cracked marble floor as Justin followed Klaus.
Justin had never doubted Klaus since their first raid together. He had never encountered anyone daring enough to deceive the Director of the Awakener Association, challenge powerful guilds, or create innovations that shook the world. Klaus always managed to exceed expectations; he was nothing short of a miracle.
Justin wouldn't question Klaus. However, necromancy was something entirely different.
For the past eighteen years, there had been no news of an awakener capable of resurrecting the dead. While some cases involved people coming back to life, they were supported by medical means.
Justin believed Klaus was attempting the impossible. Sylvia had been dead for several hours, and her heart was gone. There was zero chance for her to return to life.
