The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu

The seal was so tough that even Frank could not make it budge easily.

Still, he concluded after probing it that it was a protective seal that did not hurt the body. The only issue was that it prevented a person from charging their vigor—in fact, any form of vigor that showed up in the body would activate the seal, which would in turn be dispelled.
