"Ugh."
Veda's eyes opened, then closed again.
The light from the lamps around him was too bright.
Even with his eyes barely open, it felt as though someone had shone a light directly into them.
His vision blurred, and the room seemed to shift whenever he tried to focus on something.
He swallowed.
I feel like vomiting.
A dull pain throbbed inside his head.
He remained still for a moment, waiting for his vision to settle before slowly opening his eyes again.
The lamps no longer looked as bright as before, though his head still hurt.
He blinked several times, allowing his sight to return little by little.
Only then did he begin to move.
Veda pushed himself up and rose to his feet.
His body felt heavy, and his legs nearly gave way when he tried to stand straight.
"Ahh… Ahh… Ahh…"
He panted hard.
Sweat ran down his face, passing his cheeks and dripping from his chin.
His clothes were soaked, clinging to his body after hours of continuous training.
