Amidst the awkward atmosphere between Noa and Korneli Bolkvad, after successfully fixing the poison gas leak in the laboratory, Adrihen suddenly appeared, attempting to alleviate the tension hanging in the air.
"Well, well, well. Looks like people are having fun here," Adrihen exclaimed with a broad grin. "Mind if I join in?"
Korneli Bolkvad looked uncomfortable, clearing his throat and adjusting his uniform. "Unfortunately, the call of duty awaits me now."
After exchanging a brief greeting with Noa and Adrihen, Korneli bid them farewell and departed, leaving Noa and Adrihen behind.
Adrian shook his head. "It seems that officer doesn't like me. I guess because I'm not as charming as you."
Noa laughed out loud. "Yes, maybe so. But believe me, it's your intelligence that captivates us all, Adrihen."
Adrihen put his arm around Noa's shoulders, his eyes reflecting the same exhausted expression that appeared on Noa's.
