The Male Student (A Honkai Impact 3rd Fanfiction)

Chapter 2: Arrival In Different Locations

The boy now wore a pair of black gloves, a gray long sleeved shirt, a black tie and a black buttoned vest. To complement the look, he wore a pair of gray trousers and black formal shoes.

What he wore was somewhat impractical, especially due to the possibility that he might have a sudden sparring match with someone.

He knows this because he could see a pattern in almost every manga and anime he had watched. And he's not even Japanese. Or so he thinks. But nevertheless, he understands the trope and anticipates this, especially the fact that he was about to arrive to a (possibly) Japanese country.

Currently, he stood at the mast once again, looking right in front of him. In the distance, he saw a tower with a dark red pyramid as a roof, and it seemed similar to a clock tower, until finally, he saw the city as a whole.

Skyscrapers appeared into view, gleaming brightly with pride from their own construction with the rise of the sun behind the ship. The pointy thing he saw from the distance revealed itself to be a large and tall tower that was at another part of the large city. He saw in front of him were two city sections, connected by a two way bridge that vehicles travel through. He saw small dots that seem like cars moving left and right on the bridge. Behind the bridge was a tall mountain filled with greenery. At his left, he saw a Ferris Wheel, lighted up with colourful lights, slowly disappearing due to the rays of the sun emerging. At the port, where they were supposed to land, was crowded with various water carriers, ranging from a simple fishing boat to a luxurious ship, and even then, he could see, even from that distance, that the people on the port were on very good terms with each other, as he saw them bowing to each other or gave a handshake, no matter how poor or rich they were. At his right was, unsurprisingly, the beach, where, upon getting closer to the city, he saw only a couple walking through the beach, holding each other's hands.

'How romantic. Although why do they do it during dawn?' The boy thought, crossing his arms across his chest, until he realized. Who was he to question their preference?

'Anyway, seems like we are landing at the port soon. I look forward for this,' the boy thought once again, a smile appearing on his face, before he turned to return to his room, only to encounter the captain at a hallway.

"Hey. We are landing soon. Looking forward to land?" He asked. The boy nodded, the smile never escaping his face.

"Good. Can I ask why you want to go to Soukai City though?"

The boy began to think of a response, before he snapped his fingers while jerking upwards a little. He pointed to himself, showing his palm, before he put his middle finger and pointy finger on the palm. He then showed the fingers moving forward one finger at a time, before he then did a writing gesture.

"Huh? Are you here as a reporter? Aren't you a little too--huh?" The captain saw the boy shook his head from side to side quickly, clearly saying 'no, that's not it.'

"Is it because you have a relative to vis--"

A head shake.

"No? Then is it that you are a drug traf--"

A very desperate head shake came as his response.

"Ah, who am I kidding. Why would you, anyway. You look like a nice child. Let me guess some more. Oooh! You're crossing a street and. . ."

Turning the not so serious question into a game of charades, the boy kept repeating his actions only to no avail, as the guesses became more and more ludicrous.

"Hey, what are those two doing?" A random passenger asked their roommate, a female.

"I don't know, but it seems fun. Let's ask."
