After patiently waiting for a week. The time finally arrives. Zack woke up early and tidy up his bed. He quickly went for a bath and had a long cold shower. Then he wore his dress checked himself in front of the mirror. He looked fine after combing his hair. He got up from the dresser. And begin to be ready for the day. "Ding" His watch notified him. He checked for the inbox. He got a message from Uncle James. Zack looked confused and wondered what was going on. As he begins to read the message. Uncle James went for a mission. He already sent me 10,000 credit points. Yesterday I asked about the Sci-fi watch. How to access all the information in it. Uncle James told me. everything. with his help, I already opened my account. He said to himself then he continues to read the message. Uncle James said. He already contacted his old friend. He is in charge of the Admission of the candidates. He already registered his name in the Sword Training Centre. I have to pay 8000 credit points for the training course. Remaining credit points for my personal and travel expense. Not many civilians are present here in this Torin city. It is one of the safe houses for warriors belong to ARMY Federation. It takes a 2-hour long journey to reach red stone city. There is only one mode of transport. you have to travel by train. There is a big lush forest present in between Torin City and Red Stone city. As he recalled the information he heard earlier. I need to prepare. it's already 7 am in morning. The train will depart at 9 am. I need to pack up things. Later, After arriving at the station. I quickly bought a ticket and already registered my id with them. In future, I can buy a ticket through the Sci-fi watch. Avoiding any more hassle. A few minutes later I boarded the train. Quickly found a window corner seat. A sat leisurely closed my eyes thinking about my next plan. Many people boarded this train. Soon a young woman shorter than me with blonde curly hair had round big eyes. She is average looking town girl. She sat before my seat. she is my co-passenger. Then for a moment, I tilted my head looked towards the window. I knitted my eyebrows. I thought for an average looking girl the aura that radiates around her is in complete contrast. Do not get deceived Zack, she might be a warrior. Most people do not have to hide the identity as a warrior. Consider the entire human population is made up of warriors. I said to myself. Without her noticing, I observed her. Because I was bored and it is good to spend the time by observing people here on the train. I like it very much. I don't have much contact with strangers other than orphanages. I'm not an extrovert nor an introvert. I find myself adaptable it's the best way to survive. without knowing other people's hearts and motives it's not best to initiate the contact first. Like the girl before me. I do not want to talk to her. She seems harmless cat but the aura around her is a weapon in disguise. These kinds of people had a lot of stories to tell. who knows it's a happy story or tragedy. Zack laughed internally. This is what happens when you observe people and in the process, you try to understand them. It's my mistake. I should stick to the limit. I observe them because I need info to safeguard my safety. Nothing more nor nothing less. Zack closed his eyes, As he saw the girl is reading a magazine. He buried himself in his thoughts. Soon the train crosses the forests. The forest is huge. Green is everywhere, the Zack opened his eyes saw the vegetation that can survive the long parched months of a dry season. Grown in these forests. There must be a reason they left these forests untouched. In one hour the train will arrive at Redstone station. He turned his gaze toward the girl. She shut her eyes close. Zack sighed then he watched the view outside of the window. One hour later the train reaches the red stone city. As the train stopped at the station, Zack picked up his backpack and exited the train. Zack saw the info of the sword training centre on his watch. He boarded the floating taxi. He sat inside. After explaining his destination to the driver. Zack watched the view of Red stone city. The taxi followed the guided lane for floating cars. There is no concept of traffic in the sky. Unlike the terrain problem in the ground. Air Transport doesn't have that problem. They have to be wary of occasional rainy storms. Other than that Air Transport, I don't know why it is not implemented in every city in the outpost. you can only have this luxury of transport in a rich area. The red stone city is the exact opposite of White Snow city. White snow city is made up of rich people. The city is filled with high facilities centres but the city got a low population. Here several people living in this city make the red stone city a thriving economic centre. Most people from low urban centres come here for seeking opportunities to change their life. Unlike expensive architects of white snow. The red stone seems normal. The building here is not too old. Average high store apartments. constructed using commonly available stones rather than expensive ores. As Zack immersed in the view of Red stone city. As the floating cab took the turn and reaches the landmark. The taxi cab arrives at the building. Which had a huge signboard. Mentioning the name of the centre "HANSEN SWORD TRAINING CENTRE" Zack was awed looking at it. He paid for the taxi the entered the building. Soon he arrived at the receptionist area. There he saw a woman in a black suit.. Working behind the artificial computer screen with huge holograms popping up here and there.
