"How shameless…" I remarked, admonishing them.
The confused nobles who were dazedly standing there, staring at me, blinked in unison. Then one after another, they suddenly came to their senses. They muttered among themselves, bemused at first before their actions from earlier slowly sank inside their heads.
Most of them were mortified and were flushing beet red from humiliation. Those who had done the extremes, like resorting to violence and had harassed the stationed knights, looked apologetic, brimming with guilt. The rest who had remained calm throughout the whole ordeal had the face of relief. They could finally be at peace now that the majority are settling down.
I was still a little miffed, annoyed by the humming in my head. The snake-like voice had disappeared as well, which is nice. If it continued, I might have gone senile.
