Chapter 35 Akash {Zike City}

This was the second largest seaside city in the Moon Federation. Its main feature was its port, which served as a nexus for travelling the seas and exploiting the resources of the ocean.

The city had a population of over three million people. By exploiting the natural resources in the ocean, the city was able to prosper. Even when compared to the rest of the Sun-Moon Federation, it could still be considered a second-tier city.

Zike City had a long history and its overall appearance had preserved its original state of a simple and unadorned style. In the last several hundred years, the Moon Federation had taken extra care to protect some of the more ancient buildings. Thus, many of the millennia old buildings could be found in this ancient city.

Sky Quin City to Zike City took about four hours taking a soul train. 

Akash felt so nervous for the past four hours he hasn't used his Louis devices which was gifted to him by his parents. His eyes traveled around and he saw the soul train driving into a cave when it drove to the side you saw a huge city that said Zike City. Akash sat up his eyes widen wow this is so much different from Sky Quin City. 

The soul train stopped thirty minutes later and he jumped out of the soul train with his duffel bags he looked at his Louis device which was three to four inch metal stick that can be any color when one pulled it apart a holographic screen appeared. You can use this device for anything it can also wrap around one wrist or around their ear when they are making a call. 

Akash tightly held onto his rucksack as he followed the stream of people towards the exit. This was the first time he had ever been to such a major city so his curious gaze was wandering all over the place.

The train station's ceiling was constructed from a bunch of metal tubes. With a glance, Akash could tell that all these metal tubes had been cast and were pressed into completion like ordinary metal.

For a nine old this was so scary he touched the necklace that Ayan gifted him and he took a deep breath he tripped over and he fall on his butt he sat up while he clenched his jaw never living in a big city to stressful!

While he was following the stream of people, it suddenly split in two, giving Akash a clear look at a polished black soul car that was parked on the platform. The stream of people had split in order to avoid this car.

Although he didn't recognize what type of car this was, he could tell from its exterior that it was absolutely high class. The body of the car was slender and sleek, its four wheels had caterpillar tracks on them. It seems it was an all-terrain vehicle.

Beside the car doors stood two men in black suits who were peering into the crowd.

"Young master," one of the black clothed guy said while they powered at a young man who looked like he came from a wealthy family. 

 While he was looked around for this young master, a youth strode out from behind him.

This youth looked to be about the same age from his appearance. He was dressed in blue from head to toe and had short golden yellow hair.

When Akash turned around to look, the youth had already walked past his side, so Akash was only able to catch a glimpse of the side of his face.

Fair white skin, a straight nose, eyes that were slightly sunken in, long eyelashes that curled up slightly and eyes that were deep green in color.

Right at that moment, Akash was pushed from the side and stumbled into that young master's shoulder.

Staggering backwards from the collision, the youth caught himself and abruptly turned towards Akash.

The youth was handsome but Akash could clearly feel that he had a cold and arrogant temperament. The youths expression soured, but after a glance, he continued walking towards the soul car. His expression wasn't one of indifference to his offender, rather, it was one of disdain.

"Trash," the youth said.

Akash took a deep breath and he clenched his teeth tightly. His parents taught him to be kind so he wasn't about to be rude.

"Sorry," Akash said in a cold manner.

"You country bumpkin stay away from our young master."

People in big city are so fucking mean!

As he looked at this huge structure that was the train station, Akash couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Compared to the largest building in Sky Quin City, this train station was even more grand.

He turned back around and surveyed his surroundings. Reflected in his eyes was a wide street with many skyscrapers off in the distance. All kinds of soul cars could be seen on the streets as the constantly sped about. The stream of people was simply bustling with activity. This all combined together to give one a feeling of constriction.

Shrinking into his body, Akash rummaged through his rucksack for his water bottle, and quickly drank a mouthful.

After taking a drink of water, he rummaged through his rucksack once again and took out a slip of paper. This slip of paper was written for him by his father. His father had written what he should do once he arrived in Zike City.

Right at that moment, a middle aged man that with a slim build walked over with a beaming smile.

"Little friend, is this your first time coming to Zike City? Where are your parents?"

Akash saw the note his mother left him. Don't talk to strangers. His eyes landed on the stranger and he ran straight past him really people would talk to you! 

The direction he headed in had a tower and on top of it was written: Administrative Law Enforcement.

 "Hello uncle police officer. Can you tell me where the regular bus to the Zike Sea Academy is?"

For the famous Zike Sea Academy, every year around registration time, there would be regular busses near the train station that would take students to the academy. As long as he found the bus, he would be able to go to the academy without a hitch.

One of the officers pointed to a location not too far away.

"It's right over there. Child, where's your family?"

Akash straightened his posture.

"Uncle, I'm not little anymore. Thank you."

After he finished speaking, Akash turned around and ran off in the direction the officer had pointed in.

Sure enough, after passing through the crowd of people, Akash saw a sign with white words on a blue background that said: Zike Sea Academy.

A seventeen to eighteen year old girl was there who was holding a sign pointing at the bus for kids who weren't taken by their parents. Akash was one of them he rushed inside the bus he sat down and he took a deep breath he closed his eyes tightly. It would been more fun if Ayan was here they are all kinds of food he would love to try. He stared at the picture of Ayan and him both of them on a winter holiday on a snowy day. Ayan hair matched the snow with the silver it made him look like a ice prince.

Wait for me Ayan no matter big brother will find you!

When the bus stopped a academy the gate opened and everyone rushed out it only took them fifteen minutes when Akash stepped outside he saw tables and he saw a girl with pink hair and blue eyes she was eating her food while she stared at Akash she smiled. She was about seventeen to eighteen years old.

"Hello little junior my name is Paige Smith what's your name?"

"Akash Beaufort."

"Hehe alright then follow me I will show you around, welcome to Zike Sea Academy!

"Let me warn you our school is outstanding don't go looking for trouble, when you have a teacher that teacher will be your teacher for the next six years, come on lad here have some food, this is known as the Sea Dinning Hall!

Paige grabbed Akash and she walked inside Information Hall and she touched her hand on the screen this time she pushed Akash in front a picture was taken of him when he put his hand out it was scanned same with his face and eyes. After that a white clear card slid down to his hand and he stared down at it.
