[A/n : Hedrian is title used by Royal Haidrens]

In the midst of the bustling crowd, amidst the students eagerly awaiting their awakening, one person stood out for their swiftness in navigating the sea of people.

It was me, and at this point, all my plans to avoid attention had become futile.

Instead, I decided to focus solely on the upcoming awakening process.

With Mother's recommendation, I was assured of a quicker chance, as the royals usually took precedence.

As I entered the grand hall, I couldn't help but notice the professors observing every student. Among them, my target professor stood out.

Professor Adriannel Riantain was the only human professor in all of Valeria Academy, and he was the one I wanted as my tutor.

The reason was simple – nobody else would choose him.

Little did they know that he was, in fact, the academy's founder, the enigmatic Director hidden in the shadows.

People often labeled him as the weakest of all professors, but the truth was quite the opposite.

Adriannel Riantain was in a league of his own, an ancient hero, and an Arcmage.

I couldn't comprehend why none of the other students and professors saw through his clever disguise.

He even retained the same name after reincarnating, just adding a few letters before it. It was a prime example of how something as simple as a pair of glasses could dramatically alter one's appearance. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

As the ceremony begins, my heart is pounding with anticipation. I can see many familiar faces in the crowd, students who will soon become the academy's next heroes.

Valeriana Hedrian, Alora vi Vendal, and many more stand out, but honestly, I couldn't care less about their titles or achievements.

All I can think about is my own awakening. I'm here for a purpose, and that purpose is to attain the strength I need to navigate this new world.

These heroes-to-be and their fame mean nothing to me; I have my own path to follow.

"Hey, I heard last year someone got fire manipulation as their awakening. Imagine being able to summon flames!"

" Yeah, but I also heard someone got the ability to talk to animals. How cool would that be?"

" I hope I get enhanced strength or speed. It'd be awesome to be a physical powerhouse."

" I just don't want something weird, like growing extra limbs or turning invisible randomly."

In my mind, I couldn't help but sort the students around me. To the background characters go the elemental powers, telepathy, and all the usual abilities.

But those standing out, those special few, the heroes and heroines of this story, they held my attention.

I was among them, the 14th, and as I waited for my awakening, a sense of both anticipation and anxiety coursed through me.

As I watched the row of heroes make their way to the awakening stone, I couldn't help but focus on Valeriana.

Her powers may not have appeared overwhelming on the surface, but they were far from simple.

Valeriana possessed the extraordinary ability to read people's minds, a power that allowed her to delve into the deepest recesses of their thoughts.

However, her awakening today was something even more formidable.

It granted her the power to manipulate and interfere with people's most profound emotions.

To an outsider, it might not seem overpowered, but imagine living your entire life under the illusion of free will, only to realize that every emotion, every decision, was under someone else's control.

Valeriana held the reins to people's minds, and that, in itself, was a terrifying power.

.

As Valeriana placed her hands upon the stone tablet of awakening, a brilliant light emerged, signifying the activation of her powers.

What made this academy unique was that the rank of abilities was not solely determined by the power itself, but by the user's compatibility with it.

I couldn't help but notice the chuckles and giggles from some of the unaware onlookers. They didn't grasp the gravity of what was happening.

However, one person who didn't share in the laughter was Professor Deventhia Corlos Hedrian.

She was renowned as the strongest Haidren in the field of mind manipulation, although only a few knew about her actual power.

The reason was simple: those who encountered her often felt an overwhelming sense of fear and unease, rendering them incapable of comprehending her abilities.

Ironically, her very first target had been her own brother, who happened to be Valeriana's father and the current king of the Hedrian Kingdom.

The intricacies of their family tree made my head spin, but what was clear was that Deventhia had played a pivotal role in helping her niece, Valeriana, gain control over her mind-reading abilities.

Deventhia herself possessed an inborn ability as an illusionist, granting her a formidable mental prowess that surpassed ordinary limits.

This extraordinary strength had been passed down to Valeriana, further enhancing the potency of her awakened ability.

After receiving her ability, she stepped down from the platform.

Slowly, all 12 people followed suit, Except Thalia, who was recommended by my father and stood in the third row.

Each of them awakened their respective abilities. Now, it was my turn.
