Rheanne stood before Brandon, long white hair swaying gently in the breeze.
She tilted her head slightly, repeating his name "Brandon Kael."
"Kael, huh. Never heard of that weird family name before. I guess you are a commoner."
Her tone wasn't dismissive, merely curious.
Brandon remained silent, letting her speak while his mind raced to catch up with the situation.
Rheanne took a small step closer, "You realize the power granted upon you, right? You are a 'Chosen One' like me."
Brandon's heart gave a hard thud.
He kept his expression carefully neutral, but inside, his thoughts were spinning.
'Judging from her words and reactions, I think I am in the time where she is the first and only awakener.'
'But she was talking about another person... the second awakener and her companion when I met her in the church…' - [1]
'So… she hasn't met that person yet. For this time period, I'll have to play along with her.'
He nodded slowly, keeping his voice steady.
"Yeah..."
