Frowning with his arms crossed, Hal stared at the young man in front of him with equal parts disbelief and amazement.
"What?" Of course, having already taken notice of his shock the moment he appeared in front of him once more, Valyr gave his friend a teasing smile. "You really thought I wouldn't be able to do it?"
"I mean…" Hearing those words, Hal quickly shifted his gaze to the side, not wanting to meet the young man's gaze whatsoever. "It's not that I wasn't expecting you to be able to do it…"
"Hehe." In response, Valyr merely let out a chuckle, finding it amusing that the man continued to deny that he ever doubted his abilities.
'Then again, completing those 5 missions in the amount of time I gave myself is definitely something I shouldn't do more often,' thought the young man to himself after that as he briefly thought back to how it all unfolded.
