Ash woke up, feeling groggy since a strange electric current was running through his brain. It wasn't painful, but extremely irritating and pervasive, beating away any desire to return to sleep.
Yesternight, he had ended up falling asleep at the time Darius had specified thanks to the help of the HoloBrace and now it had woken him up.
Admittedly, Darius' allocated sleeping schedule had granted his pupils more than enough hours to sleep, but as a noble, Ash was used to sleeping slightly longer.
The boy stretched and got off his bed to walk to the attached bathroom that had everything. He quickly brushed his teeth and had a nice soak in the bath that refreshed him even more.
The water came from a pipe in the mage tower so he didn't have to wait for a servant to draw it. He wondered what kind of water this was that made him feel so comfortable and refreshed, like he could melt into sludge within.
