Aidan walked along the hall with Sofiel in hand. Yep, you heard that right. He bravely held Sofiel's hand.
His heart was drumming inside his chest, panicking and urging him to let go. But his brain complimented him with sweet, naturally made endorphins.
He went on his merry way without any obstruction.
But as he strolled to the campus' kitchen, he noticed that everyone seemed to know him.
"Hey, Aidan!" Someone called. "Let's talk about how you defeat that Blade Leaper. Oh never mind. We'll talk about it the other day," a man said when he saw that Aidan was with a girl.
"Aidan! Let's go hunt some monsters sometimes."
"That Blade Leaper is so strong, eh? I'll invite you if you want to hunt something else."
"Aidan, I hear you defeat an evolved Blade Leaper!"
"Evolved Blade Leaper? I heard only the seniors can defeat it. Aidan only joined the school a few days ago."
