Entering into the building, the magnetic pull led him straight into an elevator. The force from his imprint seems to change directions according to his situation.
At the entrance of the elevator, he suddenly remembered something and paused. He turned back, only to see that Nihyuh had climbed into another elevator.
He finally sighed in relief, he was finally alone and not feeling like he was being watched.
David threw the thoughts to the back of his mind.
He went inside the elevator already containing several people inside. The elevator was almost five to seven meters wide. More than enough to contain ten people.
Ignoring them all, David stood at the edge and resumed contemplating. Since he had transmigrated, there must be a reason for that. It was obvious that someone would just place him in this world selflessly to just exist to fill up the numbers.
Shaking his head, every time he thought too deeply about something he always felt this strange headache striking his brain.
He stood quietly and was expecting the elevator to start moving upwards.
He missed the part where the other students each held onto the iron rod horizontally connected to the sides of the elevator.
Although, he had no idea how he would get to his exact floor through the elevator since there wasn't even a single button to push.
But since no one was panicking, he decided to follow he crowd and stood still.
Ding! Ding!! Ding!!!
David frowned, seems like a warning sign.
He closed his eyes softly to ease his headache, about to lean sideways at the elevator when suddenly,
Shua!
The elevator swiftly moved upwards without warning at least for David.
Bang!
The acceleration speed was up to 50 miles per hour. David's butt instantly kissed the floor.
The teenagers inside the elevator stared at him in surprise.
They all had a single thought in their minds as they watched David fell as the elevator continued rose upwards with increasing velocity— had he never used an elevator before?
Gradually, the elevator began slowing is ascension. David quickly noticed it.
David quickly stood up, ignoring the stares he received from his fellow students.
It stopped, but David didn't get out yet due to the fact that his imprint was still pulling upward.
Someone else left the elevator but not without staring at David.
David ignored him completely, holding on to the iron rod like the others did.
After which, the door to the elevator closed and then resumed moving upwards.
'Seems like the elevator knows where we are to stop. How do they even do that?'
David thought while looking around curiously but soon enough, he got tired after a few seconds.
Feeling the magnetic pull changing its force forwards instead of upwards like before, David left the elevator since the door had slid open.
Not willing to be intimidated by the odd stares from his fellow student.
And before he left,
"See you all next time."
David said with a smile, then he exited the elevator. The moment he left the elevator, everything that happened already left him too, since it wasn't important, he forgot about it.
But he didn't forget counting the floor he was in.
After walking for a few seconds, David found his room.
Staring at the written number on the door. 13248.
He felt really happy, he could finally get to his room after so much trouble.
Now the only problem is getting in to the room. There was no door knob, button or anything of the sort. It was just plain steel door.
He knocked the steel door, hoping for some kind of reaction, but he was bound to be disappointed.
"Open." His voice sounded hesitantly.
"Please open?" but there was no reaction.
He was now getting frustrated, he was getting really tired now, he just wished he could get into his room, have a nice bath and sleep soundly for the whole free week off. He had been mentally drained from everything that had happened already.
But it seems like the door had other plans for him.
Bang!
Hitting the door in frustration
"That won't work you know."
A little startled at the familiar voice.
He turned back, facing the person who spoke.
"Do I know you? I feel like we've met before." Dav asked, really puzzled as he scrutinised the fellow before him. He felt the voice was familiar but he forgot who the person was.
"What!?" The guy was obviously stunned at David question. Not expecting David to ask that type of question from him.
The boy's face turned red from anger instantly when he thought about the fact that someone he was starting to call a friend didn't even really recall talking to him.
He gave David a cold stare before saying. "If you do not recognize me, do you at least remember talking to someone a while ago?"
David thought while staring at Nihyuh for a bit then hesitated but still he shook his head. "I don't think so."
Nihyuh was livid this time, he breathing turned rapidly but before he could leave from anger, he heard David say,
"Come on, I'm Just messing with you. Don't take it seriously." David chuckled but in his mind, he was panicking. He seemed to have lost some of his memories of a few moments ago. He didn't understand what was going on.
Nihyuh's angry expression faded a way like smoke as though it wasn't there from the beginning.
"Do you by any chance know how to open this door? It's really giving me a serious headache."
David said to Nihyuh asking for his help.
Nihyuh glanced at David oddly after most of his anger left.
"Why are you asking? You didn't read the students guide, did you?"
Nihyuh asked the obvious question.
David stared at him like he was a fool, "And why the hell would I read something like that? Who does that anyway?" he obviously wouldn't ask what or where he could get the student's guide. It would instead arouse Nihyuh's suspicions more.
"Can you just tell me how I can open this door?"
"It's actually really easy, you just have to hold your imprint facing the door for 3 seconds, then that's it."
"That simple? Nothing else?"
David said while placing his hands In front of the door.
A lightly audible voice rang out to him.
"Scanning please wait a moment.... Welcome David, we've been expecting you."
