Sovanarasa Academy

Jett retracted his gaze and quickly entered the academy. Upon entering, he realized the magnificent beauty of the academy instantly.

The academy area was huge. There are various buildings of different designs. However, each one is a beauty in its own realm. He had already seen this scene online but compared to now, it's a stark difference.

It was no wonder why there was a saying that:

[ Seeing something once is better than hearing about it a hundred times. Doing something once is better than seeing it a hundred times. ]

In front of him was a large green garden with water shooting out from the middle dancing wildly before falling on the nearby flowers. Although this was his first time here, he knew that those flowers were nothing but artificial decoration. As for the dancing water, it was merely functioning as a temperature cooling. Due to the events from many years ago, the food becomes scarce. Let alone flowers, even finding a fresh vegetable was a hard task.

Ordinary people wouldn't be able to eat proper meals. A few years ago, scientists have finally discovered a method to mass produce food pills that was affordable and has an equal amount of nutrients to normal meals or might even better. This discovery had reduced a huge number of people died due to starvation.

Jett took a glance at the corner of his screen to see the time. It was already 9:45 in the morning. He reached out into the small pocket of his luggage and took out a food pill then quickly throw it into his mouth. He was chewing it slowly like chewing a chewing gum before continued walking toward the centre building which was also the biggest building in the visible area. With the assistance from the contact lens, a map appeared thus he quickly found his way to the gathering place which is happened to be just behind the centre building.

The academy was truly enormous. It took him almost 10 minutes just to walk from the entrance to the gathering square. "Phew~~~ I somehow managed to come in time on my first day." Jett thought as he heaved a sigh of relief.

There was 5 minutes more before the ceremony start. According to the information he gathered, Jett knew that the students would have to find and form a party of four people roommate. Jett was a taciturn person and he usually doesn't talk much and was uncomfortable around other people. As he was coming here alone, he was rather nervous at the idea of being randomly selected to live with strangers. However, he has no other choice but to accept it.

While waiting for the ceremony to start, he unknowingly entered a trance. Jett had a habit of getting distracted into his own world of thoughts whenever he was not occupied with something. Sometimes, he would even be found standing in a daze in the middle of the road. Fortunately, there's no vehicle to hit him nowadays.

In his world of thoughts.

Jett was imagining himself living with strangers, his new roommates. One of them was a boy with a scary face, he appeared to have a bulky body. As soon as his line of thought went till here, he felt nervous and his legs gone soft. Avoiding his gaze from the scary boy, his eyes contact fell upon another boy who was talking to another boy.

Upon seeing this sight, Jett couldn't help but wonder silently in his mind. "Could he be the legendary hyperactive talkative extrovert?"

Change! I want to change!

At this moment, he felt someone tugging his hand. Jett awoke from his trance only to see a boy calling out to him softly, "Hey! Hey! It's starting~~~" The boy was staring at him curiously. When he looked at him, he got a feeling of looking at a gentleman with scholarly aura.

Just as he was about to say something. The boy raised his hand to his mouth signalling him to be quiet. That was perfect. This sign is a holy signature for a taciturn like Jett. Jett had a favourable impression of this nameless boy. Why nameless? Think about it! Would a taciturn such as Jett go so far just to inquire his name? The answer is NO.

Thereafter, Jett turned his attention toward the speaker on the stage. As he was in a daze earlier, he didn't get to know her when she introduced herself. What a pity! Who knows when she would willingly tell me her identity again?!

The first part of the speech was to introduce the academy as well as what they will be studying here. The second part was about rules and important things a student has to pay attention to. The third which also the last part was as expected regarding the roommate arrangement. Students that have their own team can go to register as a team while those who don't have a team will register as an individual. The Academy will randomly form a group for them.

The whole process was fast and efficient as everyone just had to use their contact lens to register. Those without the contact lens implanted was in the minority. So there was no unnecessary waiting.

Several minutes later.

The result of the randomly matching algorithm was released. Fortunately, the basic information was sent to Jett, saving him the hassle of introduction. Jett glanced at the information and viewed them one by one. The other students were also doing a similar thing.

The first one on the list was: Eduardo Rockingson. Based on his profile photo, he seems like a quiet guy too. This somehow made Jett relax a little. He continued to read. Eduardo wants to be an electronic hardware specialist. He had a cleaned history since young too. Furthermore, he seems to be a talent as well. There's not much information left. After all, this was just a basic information.

Next, he went on to the second guy. Marco Trinitio, a biologist wannabe. His body is a little bit big and he has a strange face. Jett thought that maybe people with a weird face will make a great scientist. This guy seems like a biology addicted victim.

When Jett looked at the photo of the third guy, he was a bit surprised. He didn't expect it to be the gentleman with scholarly aura from earlier. His name is Allen Greenflame. "It seems like we have fate with each other." Jett thought. His impression of Allen was good so he was rather happy to have such a person as his roommate. Allen wanted to be an author. It was no wonder why he had that scholarly aura with him.

There was no need to find each other among the crowd as everyone just directly headed to their dormitory room. Jett wasn't the first one to reach their room. It was located on the third floor of the male building. His room number was 3009 which was a little further to the end of the walking hall. When he found the room, the door was opened.
