Chapter 4

Mark found his way to the cafeteria of the police station where he found Naive sitting with loads of food on the table.

Without speaking a word to him, he sat down and started eating the food.

"Hey Mark, as you already know, the House of Night won't force you tell us anything about your aspect or your flaw. But you are entitled to psychological counseling and if there is anything you wish to tell us about your nightmare or aspect, feel free to do so." Naive said after he saw that Mark was done eating.

"Well, I'm gonna say no to the psychological counseling." Mark said before suddenly remembering something important.

"Oh, I also received a true name, it's Winter Samurai." he said nonchalantly.

Naive was not surprised about his first answer but what he said next blew his mind.

"Y-you received a true name? That's wonderful!! Did you know that even a lot of saints do not possess true names. I don't even have one. You must have done very well in your first nightmare."

"Yeah, even the nightmare spell started praising my awesomeness.Sigh, being as great as me is a bad thing, I draw too much attention." Mark said with a serious expression on his face.

Naive's lips twitched, 'He's starting to become just like big brother, I guess narcism just runs in his blood now.'

"Okay enough chit-chat, let's go to the mansion." Naive.

"Aight."

Naive led him outside to where he parked his luxurious PTV. They got in and after about 25 minutes of driving, they stopped in front of an estate that was painted in blue and white.

The security immediately opened the gate for them the moment he saw the car.

Mark soon found himself standing face to face with a magnificat mansion. This was was the main mansion of the estate and the place we're all the higher-ups lived when they were not in the dream realm.

Mark was given permission to live here due to the fact that his father was a member of the council of elders and his status as an absolute prodigy. The mansion was mostly empty aside from the maids, probably because they were in the dream realm.

He walked in with steady and confident steps as if he owned the place and found himself in his room which was in the lowest floor.

"Okay, let's be quick Naive's waiting in the car." He said before grabbing a duffel bag and stuffing it with neat and folded clothes. He also changed his current track suit given to him by the police. He wore a black hoodie with indigo pants and black sneakers.

He made his way out of the mansion and entered the car before being driven to the Awakened academy.

Mark stood before the seemingly indestructible red gates of the awakened academy. He turned around and looked at Naive who rolled down the glass of his PTV.

"Don't forget, you have 4 weeks before the winter solstice, don't tell anyone your flaw...and try to make some friends okay?"

"Okay, I'll see you later once I've awakened." Mark said before Naive drove away.

'Guess I arrived a few hours later than Sunny and Nephis since there's still 4 weeks left.' Mark thought before the gates of the academy opened.

Mark walked for a while before he reached the south of the academy where the sleeper compound was located. He has already been directed on where to go by the security at the gate.

He made his way into the building and was walking around the corridor that led to the hall where the sleeper induction ceremony was to be held.

What mark didn't know was that because of his excitement of finally meeting the main cast, he was subconsciously releasing waves of his conquerors haki because he could not control the power yet.

In the hall the temperature suddenly plummeted and an ancient and terrifying aura was felt all around.

Sunny who just got slapped and was smiling like a maniac suddenly froze, the grin on his face vanishing and shiver ran down his spine.

Nephis, who had nonchalant expression on her face frowned and looked at the entrance of the hall with a wary expression, her instincts told her that whatever was approaching, was incredibly strong and dangerous.

The room got so cold that the sleeper's breaths started to become visible.

Then a strikingly adorable young boy walked inside the hall with steady and composed steps. He sported powdery blue hair and amethyst like purple eyes that had a black pentagon in them.

'Huh? Why is everyone looking at me, are they just too stunned by my awesomeness?' Mark thought before realizing that his aura had been leaking the whole time.

Finally managing to control his newfound powers, Mark ignored all the looks he was getting and walked to a corner of the room at the back where no one was sitting.

'After all, there's no use in interacting with the main cast now... I'll wait for us to meet in the dream realm'. He thought before a bulky man who he assumed to be awakened rock enter the hall.
