章節 224: 217 Left Hand of Calamity (3)

The room is softly lit with dim light, casting a soothing glow throughout the space as the mild sound of a television reverberated.

In the centre of the room, a man sat on a comfortable couch. Despite the soft cushions and blankets, he was sitting uncomfortably with his head between his knees, eyes glued to the flat-screen of the TV, playing old cartoons.

The room was adorned with vintage decor, giving it a nostalgic and timeless feel. A bookshelf sits in one corner of the room, filled with classic novels. A cosy armchair was placed nearby, which seemed to be missing a person to sit in.

The man's eyes somehow remained locked on the screen of the TV and vacant at the same time. Colourful lights flashed on his face, as laughter and cheers from different cartoon characters reverted throughout the room.

The man showed no reaction, not until he heard her voice.

"This is already the third time we are watching this episode," the woman said, "can't we watch something else, Gale?"
