Surprises are Shit !!!

"Wow!" Janica exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement as she took in the festival-like atmosphere of the commercial district.

The sights, the sounds, the smells, and the joyous expressions on everyone's faces created an air of celebration that felt timeless. "Hehe~ aren't you glad I dragged you along with me?"

"Well… I guess so," Lucas replied skeptically. He watched the bustling scene unfold around them, still slightly annoyed.

Just before they arrived here, he had been diligently training his sword skills in his private training room.

That was, until his red-headed childhood friend had burst in and forcibly dragged him to this bustling district.

Despite feeling slightly irritated by Janica's antics, he decided to let it slide for now. He knew from experience that complaining would only encourage her to create even more trouble for him.
