Shinon sat in his workshop, the holographic display of the system illuminating the room with a soft blue glow.
His heart raced with anticipation as he accessed his rewards for completing the mission and the bonus tasks. He had pushed himself to the limit, fighting against the relentless zombie horde, and now it was time to see what he had gained.
As the holographic interface materialized before him, Shinon's eyes widened in surprise. The numbers and icons flickered, indicating his accomplishments and rewards. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Level 40? Already?" Shinon muttered, his voice filled with astonishment with a subtle hint of disappointment. "I was hoping it would be different here, but I guess not..."
Shinon's disappointment stemmed from the awakening task that awaited him at level 40, and it was a requirement to progress further but also a barrier that frustrated him.
