Chapter 89: The Appearance of an Unfamiliar Feeling

•National Academy of Science, 1st Ward•

Valerian

Valerian stepped into the high-tech classroom with an air of familiarity. His eyes scanned the room, noting each innovative feature with a sense of detachment that was both humbling and slightly exasperating.

"You're finally here, Valerian." The annoying, high-pitched voice pierced his concentration, pulling Valerian's attention away from the wonders of the classroom.

He turned around, his expression sybtely shifting into one of annoyance as he saw the source of the voice. Before him stood a familiar face, the blond girl who had seemingly made it her mission to infiltrate his world. She smiled with an air of arrogance that grated on his nerves, and even the people around them appeared to part like the Red Sea, allowing her to approach.

"You remember me, right?" she asked with a hint of smugness.
