Alex didn't even know that he had fallen asleep.
Another factor that he had forgotten about. Vorrik's body is still very much human, and unlike Alex who had not needed to sleep most of the time due to his cultivation level, he had completely forgotten that sleep was something that could overtake you easily.
It was only 5 hours later before he woke up from his sleep by chance. He felt his bum and legs getting numb as he had slept off in the meditative pose.
Uncomfortable, Alex changed his position and laid on his back, unaware of where he was as he was still half asleep.
['Must have been a nice nap,'] Al said, causing Alex's eyes to jolt open and him to immediately sit up.
['I fell asleep?']
['Yeah, Vorrik's body must have been tired and it weighed on you.'] Al replied, chuckling at Alex's reaction.
['Fuck, that was reckless of me, what if someone chose to harm me in my sleep?']
