The hallway that Nicholas led him to was decorated grandly, while remaining practical enough.
It was a far cry from the area that the recruits stayed. The area that the 'recruits' lived in was spartan and dry. There were no decorations or any extra furniture at all.
Alec eyed the teen who had led him here without a problem. The fact that he was able to do it without having to take a detour at all was very suspicious. Or just very curious.
Walking up to Room 1-2, Alec knocked on the door with audible knocks, waiting for a response from inside like a polite person.
Nicolas gave him a tired nod, leaning against the wall next to the room, waiting for Alex to finish up with his business before they left together.
Even though no one could come here unless either them or their roommates were called by their mentor, it wouldn't be the first time someone didn't follow the rules and attacked where there was no one watching.
At this moment, both of them weren't safe walking alone, so it wasn't like Nicholas would leave by himself.
While what Nicholas saw during that one sparring session with the other teams told him that Alex was good at fighting and working in a team, he didn't feel safe knowing that there were teams who would go against him together if they spotted him alone.
It was the quickest and most efficient way to deal with someone before they got a big head, and none of the instructors would step in, claiming that it encouraged competition and rivalry.
Even though he was tired, Nicholas closed his eyes as got some rest while keeping his ears open on high alert.
Alec entered the room after receiving Harry's permission.
He closed the door behind him, and he pretended that he didn't see the way this place had numerous arrays in place that prevented any sound from entering or leaving the room once the door was shut.
Looking at Harry, the man appeared calm and collected as he smiled at Alec.
\"Alex,\" Harry greeted like he was meeting an old friend.
The man's smile was friendly and meant to endear the person who talked to him. He felt more like a friendly older brother than a mentor.
\"Harry,\" Alec said with a similar smile.
Compared to the day where he first woke up, Alec seemed to have overcome all his trauma and worries.
Harry eyed him approvingly. This teen was shaping up to be a good seed. He was quick on his feet, while being calm and smart. He was strong enough that he won the rookie matches this morning for breakfast.
Based on his fighting ability, he took acceptable risks and had good spatial awareness. His reflexes were quick and his hearing was above average.
Harry had already been informed by the instructor, and he had given them orders to keep a closer eye on the new recruit to make sure nothing went wrong.
It was almost baffling how strong he was considering that he was an Every, but that only made it better for the company.
He outstripped the Brights by an entire mile, which was almost alarmingly shocking.
The man was even a little jealous about how much attention was being paid to the boy.
He sized up Alex again, and he noted that the smile on Alex's face appeared genuine and he was unfazed by his sudden call to meet Harry even though he'd told him that they would only meet once a week.
It meant that the seal was working properly in keeping him numb.
The first impression that Alex had given Harry was that he was a gentle soul, so Harry was genuinely surprised when the instructor told him that he'd won all the sparring matches with his roommate.
\"Are you getting along with your roommate?\" Harry asked.
\"Yes,\" Alec said with a smile. \"He's very nice to me.\"
Harry nodded. He had a feeling that the way to controlling Alex would be the people around him.
Very good.
It was feasible.
\"What do you think about the instructor's way of teaching? Your other classmates? You can tell me anything.\"
Alec appeared confused. \"Well, I don't think it's anything special, to be honest. The other classmates seem to be hostile to Nicholas and I, but as long as they don't go after us outside of classes, I don't see a problem with that.\"
Harry sat back, thinking. This would bear more observation from the instructors about Alex's personality, but so far, they were on the right track.
Perhaps his home planet probably hadn't been as peaceful as most of the transmigrators that appeared on this planet. Or was the teen able to use the memories in the original body a lot more efficiently than most people?
\"How are your memories coming along?\" Harry asked.
Alec shook his head. \"I can remember almost everything now. But I feel like there's a bit of dissociation between myself and the original. However, I'm able to make use of his fighting experience.\"
Harry smiled with satisfaction. \"That's good. You should know that you're in the top 1% of the people here when it comes to adapting. Sometimes, they'll never remember anything about the body at all. However, for you, it's the opposite. You remember almost everything. It also means that the instructors are going to push you that much harder.\"
Alec nodded, determination flashing across his face. \"I can handle it.\"
Harry looked gratified, and his eyes were light and approving. \"Alright. I'll see you next week.\"
Alec stood up, saying goodbye to his mentor. As he turned around, his eyes flashed.
He had a feeling that tonight, someone was going to enter his room and make sure that the seal was working properly and not malfunctioning.
He also had a sneaking suspicion that they were going to upgrade the seal's potency to the level that Sekai's had reached.
He'd seen Nicholas Moon's seal, and he noted that it was a weaker version of the one that was on him. Alec's had previously been a weaker version of Sekai's as well, which meant that there were truly different levels of seals depending on the 'danger' that the transmigrator represented.
As someone who was already in the advanced stage, Alex Fields was already considered dangerous, but now that he confided to his mentor that he had recovered almost all his memories, they would clamp down on him even harder.
Alec exited the room, and Nicholas' eyes snapped open.
\"Oh, good. That didn't take long.\"
\"Yeah. It was just the routine check-up from my mentor.\"
Nicholas was confused. \"But… you just entered this place yesterday? I haven't even met my mentor again yet!\"
Alec tilted his head, equally as confused. \"I have no idea.\"
Nicholas dropped it surprisingly quickly. Alec gave him a side eye, thinking. It looked like no matter how weak the brand was, it still affected the person rather severely.
Alec could tell that Nicholas' original character was the chatty and curious type, yet with the brand, his curiosity dropped randomly at times, as well as times when he thought too hard and got too curious.
The System felt the familiar low burn of disgust curling inside him. How could someone use their beautiful runes in such a way. For such disgusting methods.
If he could, he would like to meet the original creator of the seal and eradicate their cursed existence from the earth.
Nicholas turned right. \"We have to go for the noon training now. It's to determine our lunch.\"
Alec's smile didn't change, but his lips twitched a little.
The transmigrator's academy sure didn't let up at all. He supposed that for dinner, they would be doing the same thing as well. Just using a different competition method.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
