She hummed a cheerful tune under her breath, her joy bubbling over in a way that filled the entire room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for his parents, although they did not voice it aloud, Thoren could clearly see the relief and happiness etched on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time in a long while, they looked at peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother, you promised we’re going to visit many beautiful places today,\" Elara said, raising her head and staring at Thoren with her wide, sparkling eyes. \"Right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course,\" Thoren replied with a faint smile. \"We’re going shopping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yah!\" she exclaimed, practically bouncing in her seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Serene shook her head lightly. \"Why do you have to indulge her so much? She needs to prepare to return to school.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom!\" Elara pouted, her lips forming a small, exaggerated curve. \"I will return to school. But can’t you let me enjoy today with him? After all, he’ll be returning to the Abyss later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At her words, the atmosphere shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their parents’ expressions faltered ever so slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they had long known that Thoren would soon return to the Abyss, they still couldn’t help but feel worried... and afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things had finally begun to settle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their lives, once filled with suffering and uncertainty, had taken a turn for the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a fleeting moment, they wished, perhaps foolishly thought that everything could remain this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they knew better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep sigh escaped Ardyn’s lips as he lifted his head and looked at his son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you were on the first floor... did you see your sister? Or hear anything about her?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the topic had already surfaced, he felt it was the right time to ask about their first daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the question, Elara’s smile slowly faded. Serene straightened in her seat, her expression tightening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren understood their concern. He knew how much they worried about his older sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think... she has already ascended to the second floor,\" he said slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is that possible?\" Serene asked, a deep frown forming on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew that when the first floor was cleared, Awakeners were given the opportunity to return to the surface albeit only for twenty-four hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, their daughter had supposedly ascended without ever coming back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ardyn remained silent, his gaze fixed on Thoren, waiting for him to continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I believe she had her reasons for not returning,\" Thoren said. \"But from everything I’ve gathered... she’s not dead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused briefly before continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once I ascend to the second floor, I’ll continue searching for her. So... you don’t have to worry too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He forced a reassuring smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve also heard that she’s very powerful now. Only a few can match her, and with her party, they were practically invincible on the first floor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren spoke carefully, choosing his words in a way that would ease their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\" Elara asked, her eyes lighting up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always admired her older sister. To her, she was more than family, she was a role model.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that she was strong, thriving... it filled her with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And indeed, their parents’ worry eased slightly. The thought that their daughter was alive and powerful was something they could hold onto.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough about that...\" Thoren said, rising to his feet. \"Let’s talk about our plans for today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they were about to continue, a light knock sounded at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come in,\" Thoren said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The door opened, and a sturdy man stepped into the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the aura he exuded, it was clear he was a hunter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the head of security for the estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, Ma’am... you have visitors,\" he said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren was not surprised. He had already sensed their arrival the moment they entered the estate grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take them to the hall,\" he replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had expected this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he had anticipated many visitors today; it was all part of his calculations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning to his parents, he said, \"I suppose shopping will have to wait a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the main hall, a group had already gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all dressed in luxurious clothing, each person carrying an extraordinary bearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were from the older generation, while others were younger heirs and prodigies of their respective families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some had come with their parents to meet the newly risen Awakener, while others had been sent as representatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they all shared one thing in common.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were from Awakener families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them were young women dressed elegantly, their makeup carefully done to enhance their beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes occasionally flickered toward the entrance, anticipation and calculation evident in their gazes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting for about five minutes, the doors to the hall were pushed open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him were his parents and Elara, their eyes filled with curiosity as they took in the scene before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This world, the world of Awakeners and powerful families was still new to them, and everything felt unfamiliar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master Thoren...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One after another, the guests rose to their feet and approached him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am the heir of the Silverthorn family,\" a young man with raven-black hair said respectfully. \"This is a token of goodwill from my family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you,\" Thoren replied, accepting the gift with a calm smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already done his research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Silverthorn family was one of the three most powerful Awakener families in Suncrest City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another figure stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a beautiful woman dressed in elegant violet attire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her long legs and well-proportioned figure drew immediate attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, many in the room seemed to forget their purpose for being there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes were on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren, however, merely glanced at her briefly before calmly averting his gaze, his expression unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The game had begun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he intended to play it well.\u003C\u002Fp>",1080,"2026-06-03T10:41:31.767Z","2026-06-03T10:41:38.604Z",1,"novelbin.me","7100cd0273670c16735b53a447135ee87227ae80f64d7bf20716c1a7454595bb","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-202","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-326",326,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-cover.jpg"]
