"My lord, you have arrived! Please, follow me upstairs!" At that moment, a servant bowed deeply and led a twelve-winged angel toward the upper floor.
"Hmm?" The twelve-winged angel immediately noticed John and his group sitting by the window, his eyes widening in surprise and excitement.
"My lord, please wait. I'll have them removed right away," the servant noticed John's group as well and was about to step forward to escort them out.
"Enough," the angel interrupted coldly, raising a hand to stop the servant. "Leave these people. Clear the second floor for me."
As he spoke, he took out a dozen spirit cores and tossed them toward the servant.
"Yes, yes!" The servant's eyes lit up at the sight of the spirit cores. He quickly began ushering out the other guests, leaving only John and his companions behind.
