Pride Sparks Wrath

----

As soon as the teasing entered his ear, Valac became incensed! It had been countless years since anyone belittled or provoked him to such an extent. As a result, he was immediately reminded of the days that he had forgotten. 'Damnable demons. Is it my fate to constantly receive this type of teasing,' Valac scoffed while looking at Apollo with a piercing gaze. 

Of course, with his demeanor, Apollo didn't shy away from this contest. He returned that exact gaze to Valac, "Is there an issue? If so, I believe it's within our destiny to clash," Apollo said nonchalantly. Due to his attitude, Valac reassessed the power Apollo emanated.

'My eyes don't fool me; this twerp is indeed only a Lesser Demon! It's baffling to see him hold such immense confidence. It almost borders on the edge of idiocy. Not to mention, THIS IDIOT STOLE MY SUBORDINATE!' Valac internally seethed.
