Lake, westside.
After separating from Kushida, I got into the Soul Tram and headed to the location of my agenda for today.
...It's huge. Right now, in front of me is the building that houses the Soul World Battle Network Station, and I had to say, they didn't hold back with its construction... It's easily the most modern-looking building I've seen in this place.
The exterior is decked out with reflective glass panels and sleek metallic surfaces that seamlessly blend together. But what really catches the eye are the captivating organic shapes that give it a futuristic vibe; the curves, and flowing lines create an innovative and awe-inspiring look.
When the sunlight hits the building, it highlights the play between the organic shapes and the reflective materials. The glass windows have a hint of tint, adding a touch of mystery and privacy while showcasing the building's fluidity. The shiny metal accents provide an elegant and sophisticated touch, contrasting with the dynamic curves.
If someone were to stumble upon this place by chance, they might think that they've caught a glimpse of a world yet to come.
Entering the building, I was greeted by a wave of coolness from the air conditioner, providing me instant relief from the stifling heat of my commute. Further ahead, I could see a circular reception desk with staffs waiting behind.
Surveying the hallway, I took notice of a map of the building. Surprisingly, the building is actually shaped like a triangle when viewed from above... Reading the details, it appears that each side is an area designated for each grade; the first-grade's area is housed at the base of the triangle, situated at the farthest back from the entrance, which served as the tip of the geometric arrangement.
I couldn't help but notice the constant stream of students bustling around the area. However, it was interesting to see that most of them seemed to belong to the upper grades.... Seeing no reason to linger, I proceeded to the first-grade's section.
It was helpful that I didn't have to ask for assistance from the staff when going around as everything seems to be in its proper place and carefully marked. Thus, navigating on my own is fairly easy.
As I arrived at the area, I was greeted by a staff that asked for my ID for confirmation... Seeing that I was indeed in first grade, they allowed me in while mentioning that if I want to use the devices, all I need to do is to have it scan my ID card.
Now, in front of me is a massive door with the letter D etched on its surface. The door features a sleek and modern design, with a conspicuous terminal mounted at eye level. The terminal consisted of a slim display screen, encased in a frame of brushed metal.
This must be a scanning device.
Hovering the back of my ID over the terminal, I watched as it diligently scanned the markings, emitting a soft beep sound. In response, the door swiftly opened, accompanied by a faint pneumatic hiss, inviting me into the room beyond.
"Tch."
Is the sound that I didn't expect to hear when first entering this room.
"You know, if repeated so many times, it will start to hurt my feelings, Horikita," I said to the person inside, which is my unfriendly neighbor, Horikita Suzune.
"Will it?" she asked.
"Well... not really."
"Just what I thought, I never judged you for someone who would have any feelings that can be hurt, Ayanokouji-kun," she said simply.
...I don't know if she was being insulting again, or if she actually had such perceptions about me...
"It's your face," she said, seemingly reading my mind. "Your expression never changes... that's why I said that."
