Elias returned to the lab and walked closer to Dreke, who was in a deep sleep. If his chest wasn't heaving up and down, it would have been hard to tell him from the dead.
"Sleep, dear brother. Sleep while I prepare a beautiful dream for you..."
....
Elias emerged from the shadows, appearing before the mansion that was assigned to him. And just as he had thought, the guards who were supposed to be protecting his brother were nowhere to be seen.
They had already left the place, trying to find him, while he was right where he was supposed to be.
He waited there for ten minutes before he saw another person. It was a middle-aged woman with glasses resting on the bridge of her nose.
"Are you Elias Ashborn?" she asked.
"You must be from the Academy. I have been waiting for you." Elias reached out his hand towards the woman.
"This is your new Academy Identification. Don't lose it this time." The woman placed the badge in Elias's hand and turned away.
