Chapter 62: Run away
Asher could be seen lying on his bed, the morning sun casting a warm golden ray through the window. His eyelids flickered as he finally stirred from his sleep. Glancing at the time, he noticed it was already past 12 p.m. in the afternoon.
Asher sat up on the bed, stretching with a satisfied sigh, enjoying every second of it.
’I wonder when last I slept this long,’ Asher thought to himself as he jumped down from the bed.
The True Awakening was set to take place tomorrow, and Asher had been granted the privilege of skipping today’s training at the First Training Ground to rest and prepare, although he still didn’t fully understand what exactly he was preparing for.
But regardless, he had been officially excused for the day. So, Asher simply slept until his body woke up naturally.
Today, he wasn’t going to do any rigorous training. Even his personal training was put on hold. Everything could wait until after the True Awakening.
Wasting no time, Asher headed into the bathroom for a quick bath, then changed into fresh clothes. As if she had been waiting for just this moment, Lyra entered his room with a cart in hand.
She quietly placed the food on the table before him. Seeing the variety and quantity of dishes in front of him, Asher raised an eyebrow.
"What’s the occasion?" he asked curiously.
Lyra smiled gently as she responded, "Young Master, your True Awakening is tomorrow. I’m simply helping fill your stomach so you can gain all the energy you need."
Asher glanced at her, then narrowed his eyes playfully. "Are you sure you’re not just afraid I’ll die tomorrow and you’re trying to overfeed me with one last meal?"
