After Adam had opened his eyes, he learned from Valerian that he had been in that strange state for almost two days.
He didn't know how he had come to levitate in midair like a sage. He started to stroke his chin and muttered to himself in sheer disbelief, "Is this what they call a state of enlightenment? Have I… become a wise man?"
"Val!" He hurriedly looked in the young dragon's direction. He then walked toward him and picked him by the armpits. "Look into my eyes! Tell me, do you see wisdom in my eyes? Huh? Huuuhh?"
Valerian's whiskers started to twitch. 'B-Brother, are you alright?'
"Don't ask stupid questions," Adam said with a straight face. "Tell me, do I look smarter than before?"
'No?' Valerian replied truthfully.
"Tsk." Adam gently put the little guy back on the ground. He then looked away and started tying his long hair into a ponytail. "As I thought. You're too young and dumb. You just can't see it."
Valerian was speechless.
