Valerian
Valerian was reminded of how much he hated people.
After the duel yesterday, he had to suffer from deafening cheers and unwelcomed handshakes. Today was no different.
The cheers seemed to reverberate in his ears like thunder, each clap echoing painfully in his head. He winced, trying to maintain his composure, but the discomfort etched across his face betrayed his irritation.
The constant stream of congratulations and pats on the back felt like an assault on his sensitive ears.
Valerian's sharp gaze swept across the crowd, his eyes narrowing in a glare that could cut through the festive atmosphere like a dagger. His keen sense of hearing amplified every cheer, every congratulatory remark. It was unbelievably annoying!
