The Rookies had their entrance ceremony, but it was different for other students so Xavier had left for his classes, leaving Aegon standing alone among the hundreds of new faces.
The ceremony itself was nothing more than a lecture from the Dean. Aegon remembered the memes about the Dean's lectures being boring in his previous life and wondered if it would be the same this time.
Students gathered in the open plaza, forming groups as they chatted about their nervousness and excitement.
Not so surprisingly, Aegon drew attention but no one dared to approach him, making him appear like a lone wolf.
'Better word would be a Proud Dragon.'
Now that so many people surrounded him, Aegon's nervousness faded away, replaced by a calmness that would surprise even older people.
It had always been like this for him as he had grown up in silence and loneliness. His fears only arose when he was truly alone. Here, even surrounded by enemies, he would still prefer it over being all alone.
