The following morning, Julius felt his body being violently shaken, jolting him awake. He took a moment to dispel his drowsiness in annoyance before gazing at the culprit. Next to his bed, his big brother was impatiently looking at him.
He turned to the side, only to notice with a frown that the sun hadn't risen yet. "Why did you wake me up so early? Did you even sleep?" Julius asked with a mix of curiosity and concern in his voice.
In response, Adam looked at him with an intense and burning gaze. Wisps of light blue mana emanated from his luminous eyes, showcasing his unstable emotional state.
"We finally reached this day..." Adam left his words to linger in a grave and serious voice, scaring Julius about what was happening today. He focused on Adam's posture, only to see him with his fingers crossed before his lowered and frowning face. Julius' heart raced with anticipation, uncertain about what awaited them on this momentous day.
