Chapter 24 Tour
"Y-yes." Bernard, stuttered over his word, with a flustered expression the system was clearly trying to tell him she had used her symbiote ability on him again, yet he felt like it was both real and fake, although he was confused he still raised his guard up.
"Let's catch up first and look around," Sophia said, still holding his hand with a straight face.
Taking a glance at her, he really considered her to be extremely strange, a moment ago she was all cold but now she was acting all friendly or something, he would have loved to voice out his questions but he knew it was likely he wouldn't get the answers he sought for.
As he was about to walk, he slightly turned his head and noticed Emelia was still sulking at the back, looking at her reminded him of Michelle that always called him big brother when she was still alive.
"Bernard?" Sophia called out again, as she noticed that Bernard had just stopped walking all of a sudden and was now gawking at a girl like some sort of moron.
Bernard was immediately brought back to reality, upon hearing her cold voice for the third time soon he began to walk, not to the front but towards where Emelia was standing.
"Hey, if you don't mind. why don't you join us?" Bernard said the moment he arrived in front of her, making her fidget a bit as she pointed at herself.
"Do you see anyone else besides us?" Sophia at this moment chimed in with a cold tone, making Emelia realize who she was.
Emelia had a nervous smile as she nodded her head, the next moment without even waiting for her to utter a word, Sophia held both their hands and soon begin to walk away.
Seeing them walk forward, many gave them a surprise and weird stare but couldn't say anything about it.
They got to the front and finally joined Greg who was still showing them places. While they were being led around the various places in the school, when they couldn't walk directly to some places Greg would let them through the use of teleportation devices which could be seen embedded in most places in the academy.
This was like a fun tour in a completely different world almost like a fantasy, so everyone paid attention and had their eyes filled to the brim.
After walking for a while, Greg stopped to introduce to them their training area, it was like a little world of its own, that was compromised of a vegetative land, a desert, ice land, volcanoes, and tornadoes.
It was basically a pure marvel of science to them, the awe on their expressions kept increasing rather than decreasing the more they looked. Each place they were shown had entirely new technological advance gadgets that could be seen and placed in them.
After that, the parrot was finally allowed to express itself, as its showed them their different classes in the academy such as their main teaching classroom, the activities hall, such as the weapon hall, and various sports hall.
They were never ceased to be amazed, every place that was shown would be given a brief description and explanation to make them understand their function and what they stood for.
While they couldn't have access to them at the moment, needless to say, they were very much interested in them including Bernard who wanted nothing more than to escape from Sophia's clutches.
"This place is for the academy teachers, this other place is generally where the academy facilities are located each having their own teleportation device to take you to your heart's desired area. Finally, here is our academy library this place literally contains every information our world and outside our world could offer. While there are five floors, the first three are generally allowed for the students and the last two can only be accessed through special points from special students."
Hearing this, Bernard thought it was finally time to put his brain to use, he was already tired of just watching, and needed to have contact with it instead.
"Before I forget, the first floor is only allowed to be used by the first-year student, the same goes for the second and the third. Except, the last two which are basically for the military and contain military information."
They were also shown the way to access the library through their bracelet, hearing about the library it just so happened that everyone was interested in exploring what an advance aged world library would be like.
Greg noticed the look of longing on their expressions and thought it was best for Sanjay to finish his explanations.
"Okay this is the academy dorms, here there is no sexism. And that's all for today folks, hope you enjoyed our little tour until next time, see you all later!"
"Also make sure to be in your rooms by curfew, latecomers will be locked outside their rooms."
Eventually, the parrots said with its boisterous voice and winked at them before bowing like some gentleman. After Greg stepped into a teleportation device that teleported him and Sanjay away, they suddenly felt something click in their bracelets and a moment later a Holography panel appeared in front of them displaying a dormitory room number in them, soon the panel shrank back to their bracelets.
Everyone stared at their bracelets, trying as much as possible to keep their numbers in their minds. Turning around, Bernard realized Sophia was gone and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"Hey, Emelia what is your dormitory room number?" Bernard asked.
"Hmm, tube number 20. Yours?" Emelia asked, staring at Bernard with her beady eyes.
"It seems mine isn't far from yours, tube number 19." He replied with a smile on his expression, making her feel a bit at ease. He never failed to notice, how tensed she was earlier and how his words had a soothing effect.
