"How is the training here compared to those of our family?"
A slightly old man in a clean attire, seated on a large and expensive looking seat asked.
Phyllida thought for a but before answering "I don't know yet, as we have yet to be taught anything tangible as of yet. But I feel that the training in the institute u s going to be a tough one." Phyllida answered curtly and respectfully towards her clan elder.
Nodding his head in approval "Great perspective as always, there shouldn't be anyone that could pose much threat to you at this moment, you must grasp this opportunity to grow stronger than your peers during this period " Phyllida nodded
"i will make sure to keep that in mind."
"Good!" The clan elder nodded his head. Then he asked "The ant was around the corner, what did you observe from it."
Phyllida was startled at first, as she wasn't aware of what the clan elder was talking about. But soon, her eyes gleaned as she replied. "The Scorpio King Ant is weak, as to other ants, a bit special though as it seem to have the ability to sense danger close to it, and takes off, it also refuses to drop a trail or clues as it seemed to be wary around strangers. I hate such pets grand elder, why don't you tell the clan to give me another to choose from?" Phyllida whined as if she was a little girl throwing a tantrum. The pour of her pink lips, her glistening golden eyes, the beautiful and lovable face was more than enough to make anyone falter.
But the clan elder didn't even blink, he just spoke again "Try to get friendly with it alright? Am leaving, don't bother to see me off. Right, you know what Manual you should choose right?" the elder asked as he was about to step out if the room.
Nodding her head in confirmation "En."
"Perfect!". He took his leave.

"What a smart lass, if I wasn't the one who instructed him, I would really think she was referring to a Scorpio King Ant. He he, this is also a good thing."
Mu Chen laughed slightly, he squeezed the file containing the audio recordings tightly, it instantly burst into multiple rays of light, that was one of the ways to delete files from the holographic image.

David gazed at the building with slight awe visible on his face. Since he had been transmigrated into this world, this was the only building that made him feel genuine awe.
The building's height couldn't be measured has it had been hidden away by the clouds. It was a super massive skyscraper, literally scraping the sky as far as one could see.
The building gleamed with the glow of vicissitudes of life visible by the full color of the building.
David wasn't the only one stunned, Nihyuh was also stunned as this was the first time either of them had seen the building.
Snapping out of their stupor, they entered the building together with the others who were coming in and out of the building with varying expression.
As soon as they entered, Dav's was instantly met with rows upon rows of shelves just like a librarys' but the difference between the two, was that there was nothing in those shelves, as there ere supposed to be some books in them, but there was nothing. David was immediately puzzled as he saw some students holding their hands out as if they were holding books within them.
Although he was puzzled, it wasn't for long though, he called out to Nihyuh. "Let's go ask the receptionist." Dav said, pointing at the far distance.
There was a young lady who looked to be in her early twenties, behind a large desk which was empty, but her actions showed that she was Flipping through the pages of an invincible book.
Already standing in front of her, Dav immediately called out to her. "Ma'm, we need your assistance with something." Dav said to the young lady.
She dropped the invincible book she was holding while she raised her heads towards the person who was seemingly disturbing her.
"Good morning, What can I help you with." The young lady said with the fakest smile Dav could have sworn he had ever seen in his entire life. It was just too fake, Nihyuh was too got goosebumps from that smile.
Blinking his eyes, Dav replied "Trying to choose an Exercise manual, we'd like your advice on what to do as we are new here." Dav replied.
Upon hearing his words, the young lady squinted her eyes as scrutinized both David and Nihyuh then as if she had realized something, she immediately dropped her fake smile. As if to confirm more thoroughly, "So to say, you are both new here right?"
Although puzzled he still nodded his. The moment he nodded his head, the young lady instantly ignored them and continued flipping through the invisible pages, not minding them at all.
Taken aback, he was at a loss for what to do, he couldn't help but call out once again l "Excuse me!"
"Don't disturb me! Just input the code from there and you can access the archive." then she looked menacingly at both of them, "If you look for me again, I will make sure to squeeze every bones in your bodies into fragments. Hmph!!" she sat down after her threat, to continue her readings. Not without muttering 'Here I was smiling and thinking they were from the supervising department. Tsk Tsk Tsk they enjoyed the free smile I had practiced for a few weeks. '
Dav was flagabasted. He had never seen such violet woman before, what the hell had come over her. He shook his head to clear his thoughts. Nihyuh had visibly frozen in place as he also seened to be in a state of shock
He dragged Nihyuh towards the noticeboard where the archives code were posted. Calling forth his Interface, he tapped in the code. Reality instantly flickered like it was a glitch in the next moment, the empty rows of shelves was instantly filled with books, the entirely of the archive lit up like a swarm of fireflies. It was an incredible scene to behold.
observing his surroundings, he instantly saw what he came there for, the Exercise Manual. The sign shone in an obvious manner. Located in a section of the Archive.
Both he and Nihyuh went there. Obviously excited about getting an Exercise Manual.
When he got there, a big sign of warning filled his vision. "Do Not Touch, Touching means selecting the manual!"
Dav's eyes instantly furrowed together as he was thinking, how would he know the one suitable for him if he doesn't flip through the pages. Both of them glanced at each other, obviously thinking of the same problem.
He got closer to the sheives where the manuals are located, different Titles assaulted his vision as there were different types of Manuals Placed there.
